hereunder or any other Loan Document that such payment be made “in Dollars”, “in immediately available funds”, “in Cash” or any other similar requirement.

(b)Subject to and upon the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender with a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment severally agrees to make a Delayed Draw Term Loan on the Delayed Draw Funding Date, in the principal amount of its Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment; provided that Delayed Draw Term Loans (A) will be incurred pursuant to a single drawing on the Delayed Draw Funding Date, (B) will be denominated in Dollars, (C) will initially be of the same Type and will have the same Interest Period as the Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the Borrowing of such Delayed Draw Term Loans and (D) bear interest, until the last day of such initial Interest Period, at the same rate as the Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the Borrowing of such Delayed Draw Term Loans. The Initial Term Loans and the Delayed Draw Term Loans (if and when funded) shall have the same terms and shall be treated as a single Class for all purposes, except that interest on the Delayed Draw Term Loans shall commence to accrue from the applicable Delayed Draw Funding Date thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at its option and in its sole discretion, the Administrative Agent may fund the Delayed Draw Term Loans on the Delayed Draw Funding Date on behalf of each Lender having a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment immediately prior to the Delayed Draw Funding Date. To the extent the Administrative Agent funds the Delayed Draw Term Loans on behalf of such Lenders, each Lender with a Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment immediately prior to the Delayed Draw Funding Date severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent within one Business Day after the Administrative Agent has funded the Delayed Draw Term Loans, and the Borrower agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent any such amount not so funded by any Lender within three (3) Business Days after the Administrative Agent has funded the Delayed Draw Term Loans, the amount of Delayed Draw Term Loans corresponding to such Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment immediately prior to the Delayed Draw Funding Date together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of the Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short-term funds (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, interest paid pursuant to clause (ii) above), such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. The Borrower and the Sponsor each agree to assist the Lead Arrangers in starting retail syndication of the Initial Term Loans and the Delayed Draw Term Loans by not later than September 28, 2018.

Once repaid, Term Loans incurred hereunder may not be reborrowed. Within the limits set forth in this clause (d) above and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

(e)Swing Line Loans.

(i)Swing Line Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swing Line Lender, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Revolving Lenders set forth in this Section 2.01(e), agrees to make swing line loans in Dollars (each a “Swing Line Loan” and, collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrower from time to time on any Business Day during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (and upon each such Borrowing of Swing Line Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that such Borrowing will not result in) (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swing Line Loans exceeding the Swing Line Commitment, or (ii) the sum of the total Revolving Exposures exceeding the Total Revolving Commitments; provided that the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to make a Swing Line Loan to refinance, in whole or in part, an outstanding Swing Line Loan.

Immediately upon the making of a Swing Line Loan, each Revolving Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby, irrevocably and unconditionally agrees to, purchase from the Swing Line Lender a risk participation in such Swing Line Loan in an amount equal to the product of such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage times the amount of such Swing Line Loan.

(ii)Swing Line Loans. To request a Swing Line Loan, the Borrowers shall deliver, by hand delivery or facsimile transmission (or transmit by other electronic transmission if arrangements for doing so have been approved in writing by the Swing Line Lender), a duly completed and executed Notice of Borrowing to the Swing Line Lender, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time (or such later time as the Revolving Agent may agree in its sole discretion), on the Business Day of a proposed Swing Line Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Swing Line Loan. Each Swing Line Loan shall be a Base Rate Loan.

The Swing Line Lender shall make each Swing Line Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Swing Line Lender, if any, or otherwise to an account as directed by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Borrowing (or, in the case of a Swing Line Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement, by remittance to the Issuing Bank). The Swing Line Lender shall endeavor to fund each Swing Line Loan by 3:00 p.m., New York City time and shall in all events fund each Swing Line Loan by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swing Line Loan. The Borrower shall not request a Swing Line Loan unless the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 shall have been satisfied. Swing Line Loans shall be made in minimum amounts of $100,000.

(iii)Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay, without prepayment or penalty, any Swing Line Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written notice to the Swing Line Lender and the Revolving Agent before 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of repayment.

(iv)Participations. The Swing Line Lender (x) may at any time in its discretion and (y) shall, no less frequently than weekly when any Swing Line Loan is outstanding, by written notice given to the Revolving Agent (provided such notice requirement shall not apply if the Swing Line Lender and the Revolving Agent are the same entity) not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the next succeeding Business Day following such notice require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swing Line Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swing Line Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Revolving Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Revolving Agent, for the account of the Swing Line Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such Swing Line Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swing Line Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or a reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (so long as such payment shall not cause such Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.05 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Revolving Agent shall promptly pay to the Swing Line Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders; provided, that the Revolving Lender who is the Swing Line Lender shall be deemed to have funded its Pro Rata Percentage automatically without further funding. The Revolving Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swing Line Loan acquired by the Revolving Lenders pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swing Line Loan shall be made to the Revolving Agent and not to the Swing Line Lender. Any amounts received by the Swing Line Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swing Line Loan after receipt by the Swing Line Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Revolving Agent. Any such amounts received by the Revolving Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Revolving Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a

Swing Line Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(v)Resignation or Removal of the Swing Line Lender. The Swing Line Lender may resign as Swing Line Lender hereunder at any time upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Revolving Agent and the Borrower. Following such notice of resignation from the Swing Line Lender, the Swing Line Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower (with the Borrower’s agreement not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), the Revolving Agent and the successor Swing Line Lender. The Revolving Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swing Line Lender. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees and interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swing Line Lender. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, (i) the successor Swing Line Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swing Line Loans to be made by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Swing Line Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swing Line Lenders, or to such successor and all previous Swing Line Lenders, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of the Swing Line Lender hereunder, the replaced Swing Line Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of the Swing Line Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swing Line Loans made by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swing Line Loans.

(vi)Payments of Principal and Interest. The Borrower shall make all payments of principal and interest in respect of the Swing Line Loans directly to the Swing Line Lender.

(i)General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the Issuing Banks, and the Issuing Banks agree, to issue Letters of Credit in Dollars for the account of the Borrower or any other Loan Party in a form reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Agent, at any time and from time to time prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date (provided that the Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable hereunder, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Loan Party). The Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, and the Borrower shall not request the issuance of, any Letter of Credit at any time if after giving effect to such issuance the total of the Revolving Exposures of the Lenders would exceed the Total Revolving Commitment or the LC Exposure of any Issuing Bank would exceed the Revolving Commitments of such Issuing Bank (or its applicable affiliate that is a Revolving Lender). In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any LC Request or other agreement submitted by or on behalf of the Borrowers to, or entered into by the Borrowers with, the Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control.

(ii)Request for Issuance, Amendment, Extension; Certain Conditions and Notices. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit or the amendment or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall deliver (or request by facsimile) by hand, or telecopier (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank), an LC Request to the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Agent not later than 12:00 noon New York City time on the third Business Day preceding the requested date of issuance, amendment or extension (or such later date and time as is acceptable to the Issuing Bank).

A request for an initial issuance of a Letter of Credit shall specify, in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank:

(A)the proposed issuance date of the requested Letter of Credit (which shall be a Business Day);

(B)the stated or “face” amount thereof;

(C)the expiry date thereof (which shall not be later than the close of business on the Letter of Credit Expiration Date);

(D)the name and address of the beneficiary thereof;

(E)whether the Letter of Credit is to be issued for the account of the Borrower or for the account of one of the other Loan Parties (provided that the Borrower shall be a co-applicant, and be jointly and severally liable, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued for the account of any Loan Party);

(F)the documents to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder;

(G)the full text of any certificate to be presented by such beneficiary in connection with any drawing thereunder; and

(H)such other matters as the Issuing Bank may reasonably require.

A request for an amendment or extension of any outstanding Letter of Credit shall specify in form and detail reasonably satisfactory to the Issuing Bank:

(I)the Letter of Credit to be amended or extended;

(J)the proposed date of amendment or extension thereof (which shall be a Business Day);

(K)the nature of the proposed amendment or extension; and

(L)such other matters as the Issuing Bank reasonably may require.

If requested by the Issuing Bank, the Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on the Issuing Bank’s standard form in connection with any request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit or any amendment thereto. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and, upon issuance, amendment or extension of each Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension, (i) the total of the Revolving Exposures of the Lenders shall not exceed the Total Revolving Commitment and (ii) the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 in respect of such issuance, amendment or extension shall have been satisfied. Unless the Issuing Bank shall agree otherwise, no Letter of Credit shall be in an initial amount less than $100,000, in the case of a Commercial Letter of Credit, or $500,000, in the case of a Standby Letter of Credit.

Upon the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Revolving Agent (and in the case of an issuance of a Letter of Credit, or an increase or decrease in the stated amount of an existing Letter of Credit, the Revolving Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender, thereof) (and in the case of an issuance of a Letter of Credit, or an increase or decrease in the stated amount of an existing Letter of Credit, the notice to each Revolving Lender shall include a copy of such Letter of Credit and shall set forth the amount of each such Revolving Lender’s respective participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant to Section 2.01(f)(iv)).

(iii)Expiration Date.

(A)Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) in the case of a Standby Letter of Credit, (x) the date which is one year after the date of the issuance of such Standby Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, one year after such extension) and (y) five (5) Business Days prior to the Letter of Credit Expiration Date and (ii) in the case of a Commercial Letter of Credit, (x) the date that

is 180 days after the date of issuance of such Commercial Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any extension thereof, 180 days after such extension) and (y) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date; provided, however, the Issuing Bank, in its sole discretion, may agree to extend such Letter of Credit beyond such date (the “LC Extension”) upon the Borrower either (i) Cash Collateralizing such Letter of Credit or (ii) backstopping such Letter of Credit, in each case unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least thirty (30) days (or such longer period as may be specified in such Letter of Credit) prior to the then applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be extended.

(B)If the Borrower so request in any LC Request, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole and absolute 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 Issuing Bank to prevent any such extension at least once in each 12 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 in each such 12 month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Bank in such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Bank for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than the earlier of (i) one year from the date of such extension and (ii) the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, unless otherwise extended pursuant to the LC Extension; provided that the Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (x) the Issuing Bank has determined that it would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.01(f)(xiii) or otherwise), or (y) it has received notice on or before the day that is two (2) Business Days before the date which has been agreed upon pursuant to the proviso to the first sentence of this paragraph, (1) from the Revolving Agent that any Revolving Lender directly affected thereby has elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Revolving Agent, any Lender or, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6.02 are not then satisfied.

(iv)Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the Issuing Bank or the Lenders, the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from the Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Revolving Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by the Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 2.01(f)(v), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, or expiration, termination or cash collateralization of any Letter of Credit and that each such payment shall be made without any defense, offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(v)Reimbursement.

(A)If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Issuing Bank an amount equal to such LC Disbursement not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made if the Borrowers shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrowers prior to such time on such date, then not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrowers receive such notice; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to Borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.03 that such payment be financed with Revolving Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Revolving Loans bearing interest at the Base Rate.

(B)If the Borrower fails to make any such payment when due, the Issuing Bank shall notify the Revolving Agent and the Revolving Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Revolving Agent not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on such date (or, if such Revolving Lender shall have received such notice later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on any day, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on the immediately following Business Day), an amount equal to such Revolving Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the unreimbursed LC Disbursement in the same manner as provided in Section 2.05 with respect to Revolving Loans made by such Revolving Lender, and the Revolving Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Revolving Agent will promptly pay to the Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the Borrower pursuant to the above paragraph prior to the time that any Revolving Lender makes any payment pursuant to the preceding sentence and any such amounts received by the Revolving Agent from the Borrower thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Revolving Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made such payments and to the Issuing Bank, as appropriate.

(C)If any Revolving Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such LC Disbursement available to the Revolving Agent as provided above, each of such Revolving Lender and the Borrower agrees to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement was made to but excluding the date such LC Disbursement is reimbursed, to the Revolving Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of the Borrower, the rate per annum set forth in (viii) below and (ii) in the case of such Lender, at a rate determined by the Revolving Agent in accordance with banking industry rules then in effect or practices on interbank compensation.

(vi)Obligations Absolute. The Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower as provided in Section 2.01(f)(v) shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid and performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, this Agreement, or any other Loan Document, or any term or provision therein or herein; (ii) whether any other Person shall at any time have guaranteed or otherwise agreed to be liable for any of the Obligations or granted any security therefor, and if so, regardless of the termination of or any other change in the time, manner or place of payment of or any other term of any such guarantee or other obligations of such other Person, (iii) any exchange, change, waiver or release of, or failure of perfection of any Lien on, any Collateral for, or any other Person’s guarantee of or other liability for, any of the Obligations, (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that the Borrower or any other Person may at any

time have against any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit, any assignee of proceeds of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank, or any other Person, (v) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (vi) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that fails to comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; (vii) the fact that a Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing; (viii) any material adverse change in the business, property, results of operations, prospects or conditions, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, (ix) any merger, amalgamation, consolidation, sale of assets, or any other transaction involving any Loan Party, or (x) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.01(f), constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the obligations of the Borrower hereunder. None of the Revolving Agent, the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or any of their Affiliates shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential, special, indirect, exemplary, incidental or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Bank’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction (which is not subject to appeal)), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(vii)Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The Issuing Bank shall promptly give written notice to the Revolving Agent and the Borrower of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of their Reimbursement Obligation to the Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement (other than with respect to the timing of payment of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in Section 2.01(f)(v)).

(viii)Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest payable on demand, for

each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for a period of three (3) Business Days from the date of such LC Disbursement, and at the rate per annum determined pursuant to Section 2.09(d) thereafter. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to Section 2.01(f)(v) to reimburse the Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(ix)Cash Collateralization. If (1) any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Revolving Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this paragraph, (2) as of the Letter of Credit Expiration Date, any LC Obligation for any reason remains outstanding or (3) there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower shall immediately (or, in the case of clause (3), upon the reasonable request of the Revolving Agent) deposit on terms and in accounts satisfactory to the Revolving Agent and the Issuing Bank, in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders and the Issuing Bank, an amount in cash equal to 103% of the LC Exposure as of such date (giving effect to any scheduled increases in the amount of such Letter of Credit, whether or not any conditions to such scheduled increases have been satisfied) plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon and any other amounts due in connection therewith; provided that the obligation to deposit such Cash Collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default under Section 10.01(f). Funds so deposited shall be applied by the Collateral Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and pay accrued interest thereon and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of outstanding Reimbursement Obligations or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the existence and continuance of an Event of Default, such amount plus any accrued interest or realized profits with respect to such amounts (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(x)Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate one or more additional Revolving Lenders to act as an Issuing Bank hereunder. Any Revolving Lender consenting in writing to such designation shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under the Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by it, and all references in the Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall, with respect to such Letters of Credit, be deemed to refer to such Revolving Lender in its capacity as the Issuing Bank, as the context shall require. If at any time there is more than one Issuing Bank hereunder, the Borrower may, in its discretion, select which Issuing Bank is to issue any particular Letter of Credit. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Revolving Agent of the addition of an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph (x) and the Revolving Agent shall promptly notify each other Issuing Bank and the Lenders thereof.

(xi)Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Bank. Each Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank hereunder at any time upon at least thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Lenders, the Revolving Agent and the Borrower. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at

any time by the Borrower. The Borrower shall promptly notify the Revolving Agent and the Revolving Agent shall promptly notify the Issuing Banks and the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such resignation or replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 3.01(b) and, if an to the extent requested by the replaced Issuing Bank (and as a condition to the effectiveness of such resignation or replacement), any Letter of Credit issued by such replaced Issuing Bank shall have expired in accordance with its terms or shall have been cancelled at the request of the beneficiary(ies) thereof, in each case without any pending drawing thereon, or shall have been Cash Collateralized or backstopped, as so requested. From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement, as applicable, (i) the successor or additional Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or such additional or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor or such additional and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue, amend or extend any Letter of Credit.

(xii)Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank shall have all of the benefits and immunities (A) provided to the Revolving Agent in Section 11.06 with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and documents pertaining to such Letters of Credit as fully as if the term “Revolving Agent” as used in Article IX included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions, and (B) as additionally provided herein with respect to the Issuing Bank. The Issuing Bank may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.

(xiii)Other. The Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(A)any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital or liquidity requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or

(B)the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of general application of the Issuing Bank now or hereafter in effect. The Issuing Bank shall be under no obligation to amend any Letter of Credit if (1) the Issuing Bank would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its amended form under the terms hereof, or (2) the beneficiary of such Letter of Credit does not accept the proposed amendment to such Letter of Credit.

(xiv)Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Loan Party other than the Borrower, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit and shall be obligated to pay to the Issuing Bank any interest, fees or other amounts due and payable in connection with such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of such Loan Party inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the issuance of such Letters of Credit and the businesses of such Loan Party.

Section 2.02 Minimum Amount of Each Borrowing. The aggregate principal amount of each Borrowing of Loans under a respective Class shall not be less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable to such Class. More than one Borrowing may occur on the same date, but at no time shall there be outstanding more than ten (or such greater number as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent or, with respect to the Revolving Loans only, the Revolving Agent) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans in the aggregate for all Classes of Loans.

Section 2.03 Notice of Borrowing.

(a)If the Borrower desires to incur the Loans (or portions thereof) as (x) LIBOR Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent (and, with respect to Revolving Loans only, the Revolving Agent) at the Notice Office at least three Business Days (or, with respect to LIBOR Loans to be made on the Closing Date, such shorter period as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior notice of the LIBOR Loans to be incurred hereunder and (y) Base Rate Loans hereunder, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office at least one Business Day’s (or, with respect to Base Rate Loans to be made on the Closing Date, such shorter period as shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) prior notice of the Base Rate Loans to be incurred hereunder, provided that any such notice shall be deemed to have been given on a certain day only if given before 12:00 noon (New York City time) on such day. Each such notice (the “Notice of Borrowing”), except as otherwise expressly provided in Section 2.11, shall be irrevocable and shall be in writing, or by telephone promptly confirmed in writing, substantially in the form of Exhibit F, appropriately completed to specify: (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Borrowing and whether it is to be a Borrowing of Revolving Loans or Term Loans, (ii) the Class of the Loans to be incurred pursuant to such Borrowing, (iii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day), (iv) whether the Loans being incurred pursuant to such Borrowing are to be initially maintained as Base Rate Loans or, to the extent permitted hereunder, LIBOR Loans and, if LIBOR Loans, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto and (v) the applicable account details for the Borrower. The Administrative Agent shall promptly give each Lender which is required to make Loans of the Class specified in the respective Notice of Borrowing, notice of such proposed Borrowing, of such Lender’s proportionate share thereof and of the other matters required by the immediately preceding sentence to be specified in the Notice of Borrowing. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(b)Without in any way limiting the obligation of the Borrower to confirm in writing any telephonic notice of any Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, the Administrative Agent may act without liability upon the basis of telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment, as the case may be, believed by the Administrative Agent in good faith to be from an Authorized Officer of the Borrower, prior to receipt of written confirmation. In each such case, the Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute the Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of such telephonic notice of such Borrowing or prepayment of Loans, as the case may be, absent manifest error. With respect to Revolving Loans,

each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(c)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the applicable Latest Maturity Date.

Section 2.04 Repayment of Loans.

(a)The principal amount of the Loans of each Lender shall be repaid (i) in the case of the Initial Term Loans, (X) on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the last Business Day of the first full Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries following the Closing Date, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans incurred on the Closing Date (as such payments may be reduced from time to time as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with this Section 2.04, Section 4.01, Section 4.02 or purchases in accordance with Section 12.04(a)(iv) or increased as a result of any increase in the amount of such Initial Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.15) and (Y) on the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date, in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount outstanding on such date, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment, (ii) in the case of Initial Revolving Loans, on the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date and (iii) in the case of Swing Line Loans, on the earlier of (x) the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date and (y) the first date after such Swing Line Loan is made that is the 15th or last Business Day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swing Line Loan is made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swing Line Loans that were outstanding on the date such Revolving Borrowing was requested.

(b)The principal amount of Delayed Draw Term Loans of each Lender shall be repaid on each Quarterly Payment Date, commencing with the last Business Day of the first full Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries following the Delayed Draw Funding Date, in an amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loans (as such payments may be reduced from time to time as a result of the application of prepayments in accordance with this Section 2.04, Section 4.01, Section 4.02 or purchases in accordance with Section 12.04(a)(iv)). To the extent not previously paid, each Delayed Draw Term Loan shall be due and payable on the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date.

(c)The principal amount of Incremental Term Loans of each Additional Incremental Lender shall be repaid as provided in the respective Incremental Amendment, subject to the requirements of Section 2.15. To the extent not previously paid, each Incremental Term Loan shall be due and payable on the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date applicable to such Incremental Term Loan.

(d)The principal amount of any Loans extended pursuant to an Extension shall be repaid as provided in the respective Extension, subject to the requirements of Section 2.16. To the extent not previously paid, each Loan under a Tranche extended pursuant to an Extension shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date applicable to such Loan as provided in the respective Extension, subject to the requirements of Section 2.16.

(e)The principal amount of any Other Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans, as applicable, shall be repaid as provided in the respective Refinancing Amendment, subject to the requirements of Section 2.17. To the extent not previously paid, each Other Term Loan or Other Revolving Loan, as applicable, shall be due and payable on the Maturity Date applicable to such Other Term Loan or Other Revolving Loan, as applicable, as provided in the respective Refinancing Amendment, subject to the requirements of Section 2.17.

Section 2.05 Disbursement of Funds. No later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified in each Notice of Borrowing, each Lender with a Commitment of the respective Tranche will make available its pro rata portion (determined in accordance with Section 2.08) of each such Borrowing requested to be made on such date. All such amounts will be made available in Dollars and in immediately available funds at the Payment Office, and the Administrative Agent will make available to the Borrower at the Payment Office, or to such other account as the Borrower may specify in writing to the Administrative Agent, the aggregate of the amounts so made available by the Lenders. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to the date of Borrowing that such Lender does not intend to make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s portion of any Borrowing to be made on such date, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such date of Borrowing and the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent also shall be entitled to recover on demand from such Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, interest on such corresponding amount in respect of each day from the date such corresponding amount was made available by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower until the date such corresponding amount is recovered by the Administrative Agent, at a rate per annum equal to (i) if recovered from such Lender, the overnight Federal Funds Rate for the first three days and at the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Loans for each day thereafter and (ii) if recovered from the Borrower, the rate of interest applicable to the respective Borrowing, as determined pursuant to Section 2.09. Nothing in this Section 2.05 shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to make Loans hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any failure by such Lender to make Loans hereunder. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

Section 2.06 Promissory Notes.

(a)The Borrower’s obligation to pay the principal of, and interest on, the Loans of any Class under a Tranche made by each Lender shall be evidenced in the Term Loan Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.15(a) or the RCF Register maintained by the Revolving Agent pursuant to Section 12.15(b), as applicable, and shall, if requested by such Lender, also be evidenced by a promissory note duly executed and promptly delivered by the Borrower substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 (each, a “Term Note” and, collectively, the “Term Notes”), Exhibit G-2 (each, a “Delayed Draw Term Note” and, collectively, the “Delayed Draw Term Notes”), Exhibit G-3 (each, a “Revolving Note” and, collectively, the “Revolving Notes”) or Exhibit G-4 (each, a “Swing Line Note” and, collectively, the “Swing Line Notes”), as the case may be.

(b)Each Lender will note on its internal records the amount of each Loan of any Class under a Tranche made by it and each payment in respect thereof and prior to any transfer of any of its Notes with respect to such Loans will endorse on the reverse side thereof the outstanding principal amount of such Loans evidenced thereby. Failure to make any such notation or any error in such notation shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Loans.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above in this Section 2.06 or elsewhere in this Agreement, Notes shall only be delivered to Lenders which at any time specifically request the delivery of such Notes. No failure of any Lender to request or obtain a Note evidencing

its Loans under a Tranche to the Borrower shall affect or in any manner impair the obligations of the Borrower to pay the Loans under such Tranche (and all related Obligations) incurred by the Borrower which would otherwise be evidenced thereby in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, and shall not in any way affect the security or guarantees therefor provided pursuant to the various Loan Documents. Any Lender which does not have a Note evidencing its outstanding Loans shall in no event be required to make the notations otherwise described in preceding clause (b). At any time when any Lender requests the delivery of a Note to evidence any of its Loans under a Tranche, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to the respective Lender the requested Note in the appropriate amount or amounts to evidence such Loans.

Section 2.07 Conversions. The Borrower shall have the option to convert, on any Business Day, all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Loans made pursuant to one or more Borrowings (so long as of the same Tranche) of one or more Types of Loans into a Borrowing (of the same Tranche) of another Type of Loan, provided that, (i) except as otherwise provided in Section 2.11(b) or unless the Borrower complies with the provisions of Section 2.12, LIBOR Loans may be converted into Base Rate Loans only on the last day of an Interest Period applicable to the Loans being converted and no such partial conversion of LIBOR Loans shall reduce the outstanding principal amount of such LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, (ii) upon notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent given at the request of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Significant Event of Default, Base Rate Loans may not be converted into LIBOR Loans, and (iii) no conversion pursuant to this Section 2.07 shall result in a greater number of Borrowings of LIBOR Loans than is permitted under Section 2.02. Each such conversion shall be effected by the Borrower giving the Administrative Agent at the Notice Office prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least (x) in the case of conversions of Base Rate Loans into LIBOR Loans, three Business Days’ prior notice and (y) in the case of conversions of LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans, one Business Day’s prior notice (each, a “Notice of Conversion/Continuation”), in each case substantially in the form of Exhibit H, appropriately completed to specify the Loans to be so converted, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which such Loans were incurred and, if to be converted into LIBOR Loans, the Interest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give each Lender prompt notice of any such proposed conversion affecting any of its Loans. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

Section 2.8 Pro Rata Borrowings. Except in the case of a Borrowing comprised of Swing Line Loans and subject to the reallocation rules set forth in Section 2.14(c), all Borrowings of any Tranche of Loans under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their Commitments applicable to such Tranche of Loans. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender of its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder.

Section 2.09 Interest.

(a)The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Initial Term Loan, Delayed Draw Term Loan and/or Initial Revolving Loan maintained as a Base Rate Loan from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such Base Rate Loan to a LIBOR Loan

pursuant to Section 2.07 or 2.10, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall be equal to the sum of the relevant Applicable Margin plus the Base Rate, each as in effect from time to time.

(b)The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Initial Term Loan, Delayed Draw Term Loan and/or Initial Revolving Loan maintained as a LIBOR Loan from the date of Borrowing thereof until the earlier of (i) the maturity thereof (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and (ii) the conversion of such LIBOR Loan to a Base Rate Loan pursuant to Section 2.07, 2.10 or 2.11, as applicable, at a rate per annum which shall, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, be equal to the sum of the relevant Applicable Margin as in effect from time to time during such Interest Period plus the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period.

(c) The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Incremental Loan as provided in the respective Incremental Amendment, subject to the requirements of Section 2.15. The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of each Loan extended pursuant to an Extension as provided in the respective Extension, subject to the requirements of Section 2.16. The Borrower agrees to pay interest in respect of the unpaid principal amount of any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness as provided in the respective Refinancing Amendment, subject to the requirements of Section 2.17.

(d)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of a Significant Event of Default, overdue principal and, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest in respect of each Loan and all other overdue amounts shall, in each case, bear interest at a rate per annum equal to (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate which is 2.00% in excess of the rate then borne by such Loans, (y) in the case of unreimbursed LC Disbursements, the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin plus 2%, or (z) in the case of all other overdue amounts (including, to the extent permitted by law, overdue interest) payable hereunder and under any other Loan Document, the rate which is 2.00% in excess of the rate applicable to Loans that are maintained as Base Rate Loans from time to time. Interest that accrues under this Section 2.09(d) shall be payable on written demand.

(e)Accrued (and theretofore unpaid) interest shall be payable (i) in respect of each Base Rate Loan, (x) quarterly in arrears on each Quarterly Payment Date, (y) on the date of any repayment or prepayment in full of all outstanding Base Rate Loans, and (z) at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand, and (ii) in respect of each LIBOR Loan, (x) on the last day of each Interest Period applicable thereto and, in the case of an Interest Period in excess of three months, on each date occurring at three month intervals after the first day of such Interest Period, and (y) on the date of any repayment or prepayment (on the amount repaid or prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand

(f)Upon each Interest Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall determine the LIBOR Rate for each Interest Period applicable to the respective LIBOR Loans and shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of such LIBOR Loans thereof. Each such determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.

Section 2.10 Interest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into, any LIBOR Loan (in the case of the initial Interest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of an Interest Period applicable to such LIBOR Loan (in the case of any subsequent Interest Period), the Borrower shall have the right to elect the interest period (each, an “Interest Period”) applicable to such LIBOR Loan, which Interest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three, six or, if approved by each Lender of such LIBOR Loan, twelve month period or any period shorter than one month, provided that (in each case):

(a)all LIBOR Loans comprising a Borrowing shall at all times have the same Interest Period;

(b)the initial Interest Period for any LIBOR Loan shall commence on the date of Borrowing of such LIBOR Loan (including the date of any conversion thereto from a Base Rate Loan) and each Interest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such LIBOR Loan shall commence on the day on which the next preceding Interest Period applicable thereto expires;

(c)if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such Interest Period, such Interest Period shall end on the last Business Day of such calendar month;

(d)if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day, such Interest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan would otherwise expire on a day which is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such Interest Period shall expire on the next preceding Business Day;

(e)upon notice to the Borrower from the Administrative Agent given at the request of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Significant Event of Default, no Interest Period may be selected; and

(f)no Interest Period in respect of any Borrowing of any Tranche of Loans shall be selected which extends beyond the Maturity Date for such Tranche of Loans.

If by 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to a Borrowing of LIBOR Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect, or is not permitted to elect, a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such LIBOR Loans as LIBOR Loans with an Interest Period of one month effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period; provided that, if the Borrower is not permitted to elect a new Interest Period to be applicable to such LIBOR Loans as provided above, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such LIBOR Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current Interest Period.

Section 2.11 Increased Costs, Illegality, etc.

(a)In the event that any Lender shall have determined (which determination shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto but, with respect to clause (A) below, may be made only by the Administrative Agent):

(A)on any Interest Determination Date that, by reason of any changes in any Requirement of Law arising after the Closing Date affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR Rate; or

(B)at any time, that such Lender shall incur increased costs, Taxes (other than Excluded Taxes and Indemnified Taxes which are otherwise provided for in Section 4.04) or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any LIBOR Loan because of (x) any change since the Closing Date in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request (whether or not having the force of law) or in the interpretation or administration thereof and including the introduction of any new law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline or request, such as, but not limited to, a change in official reserve requirements, but, in all events, excluding reserves required under Regulation D to the extent included in the computation of the LIBOR Rate and/or (y) other circumstances arising since the Closing Date affecting such Lender, the London interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market (including that the

LIBOR Rate with respect to such LIBOR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lender of funding such LIBOR Loan); or

(C)at any time, that the making or continuance of any LIBOR Loan has been made (x) unlawful by any law or governmental rule, regulation or order, (y) impossible by compliance by any Lender in good faith with any governmental request (whether or not having force of law) or (z) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date which materially and adversely affects the London interbank market; then, and in any such event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (A) above) shall promptly give notice (by telephone promptly confirmed in writing) to the Borrower and, except in the case of clause (A) above, to the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of the other Lenders). Thereafter (x) in the case of clause (A) above, LIBOR Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation given by the Borrower with respect to LIBOR Loans which have not yet been incurred (including by way of conversion) shall be deemed rescinded by the Borrower, (y) in the case of clause (B) above, the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender, upon such Lender’s written request therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of, or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender shall determine after consultation with the Borrower) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable hereunder (a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto) and (z) in the case of clause (C) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section 2.11(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.

(b)At any time that any LIBOR Loan is affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.11(a)(B), the Borrower may, and in the case of a LIBOR Loan affected by the circumstances described in Section 2.11(a)(C), the Borrower shall, either (x) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then being made initially or pursuant to a conversion, cancel such Borrowing by giving the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (confirmed in writing) on the same date that the Borrower was notified by the affected Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.11(a)(B) or (C) or (y) if the affected LIBOR Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three Business Days’ written notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert such LIBOR Loan into a Base Rate Loan, provided that, if more than one Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated the same pursuant to this Section 2.11(b).

(c)If any Lender determines that after the Closing Date the introduction of or any change in any applicable law or governmental rule, regulation, order, guideline, directive or request (whether or not having the force of law) concerning capital adequacy, liquidity, or any change in interpretation or administration thereof by the NAIC or any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, will have the effect of increasing the amount of capital required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender based on the existence of such Lender’s Loans or Commitments hereunder or its obligations hereunder, then the Borrower agrees to pay to such Lender, upon its written demand therefor, such additional amounts as shall be required to compensate such Lender or such other corporation for the increased cost to such Lender or such other corporation or the reduction in the rate of return to such Lender or such other corporation as a result

of such increase of capital. In determining such additional amounts, each Lender will act reasonably and in good faith and will use averaging and attribution methods which are reasonable, provided that such Lender’s determination of compensation owing under this Section 2.11(c) shall, absent manifest error, be final and conclusive and binding on all the parties hereto. Each Lender, upon determining that any additional amounts, will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.11(c), will give prompt written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall show in reasonable detail the basis for calculation of such additional amounts, although the failure to give any such notice shall not release or diminish the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.11(c) upon the subsequent receipt of such notice.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, (x) the Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements and directives thereunder, issued in connection therewith or in implementation thereof and (y) all requests rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall be deemed to be a change after the Closing Date in a requirement of law or government rule, regulation or order, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented (including for purposes of this Section 2.11).

(e)For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.11 shall not apply to any Excluded Taxes, or to any Indemnified Taxes, which are otherwise provided for in Section 4.04.

(f)If at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that either (A) the circumstances set forth in subsection (a) of this Section 2.11 have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (B) the circumstances set forth in subsection (a) of this Section 2.11 have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBOR Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBOR Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans (in the case of either such clause (A) or (B), an “Alternative Interest Rate Election Event”), the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBOR Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for leveraged syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable (but for the avoidance of doubt, such related changes shall not include a reduction of the Applicable Margin). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 12.12, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days after the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from Required Lenders stating that they object to such amendment (which amendment shall not be effective prior to the end of such five (5) Business Day notice period). To the extent an alternate rate of interest is adopted as contemplated hereby, the approved rate shall be applied in a manner consistent with prevailing market convention and contain a 0% floor; provided that, to the extent such prevailing market convention is not administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, such approved rate shall be applied in a manner as otherwise reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. From such time as an Alternative Interest Rate Election Event has occurred and continuing until an alternate rate of interest has been determined in accordance with the terms and conditions of this paragraph, (x) any Notice of Conversion/Continuation that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a LIBOR Loan shall be ineffective, and (y) if any Notice of Borrowing requests a LIBOR Loan, such Borrowing shall be made as an Base Rate Loan; provided that, to the extent such Alternative Interest Rate Election Event is as a result of clause (B) above in this subparagraph (f), then clauses (x) and (y) of this sentence shall apply during such period only

if the LIBOR Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if such alternate rate of interest as determined in this subparagraph (f) is determined to be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.12 Compensation.

(a)The Borrower agrees to compensate each Lender, upon its written request (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such compensation), for all actual losses, reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket expenses and liabilities (including, without limitation, any actual loss, reasonable and documented out‑of‑pocket expense or liability incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds required by such Lender to fund its LIBOR Loans but excluding loss of anticipated profits) which such Lender may sustain: (i) if for any reason (other than a default by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or, if applicable the Revolving Agent)) a Borrowing of, or conversion from or into, LIBOR Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn by the Borrower or deemed withdrawn pursuant to Section 2.11(a)); (ii) if any prepayment or repayment (including any prepayment or repayment made pursuant to Section 4.01, Section 4.02 or as a result of an acceleration of the Loans pursuant to Article X) or conversion of any of its LIBOR Loans occurs on a date which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto; (iii) if any prepayment of any of its LIBOR Loans is not made on any date specified in a notice of prepayment given by the Borrower; or (iv) as a consequence of (x) any other default by the Borrower to repay LIBOR Loans when required by the terms of this Agreement or any Note held by such Lender or (y) any election made pursuant to Section 2.11(b).

(b)With respect to any Lender’s claim for compensation under Section 2.11 or 2.12, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate such Lender for any amount incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender or the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower of the event that gives rise to such claim; provided that, if the circumstance giving rise to such claim is retroactive, then such 180‑day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(c)The Borrower shall make such compensation under Section 2.11 or 2.12 within 30 days after receipt of written request therefor.

Section 2.13 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that on the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.11(a)(B) or (C), Section 2.11(c) or Section 4.04 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to designate another lending office for any Loans affected by such event, provided that such designation is made on such terms that such Lender and its lending office suffer no legal, regulatory or unreimbursed economic disadvantage, with the object of avoiding the consequence of the event giving rise to the operation of such Section. Nothing in this Section 2.13 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the right of any Lender provided in Section 2.11 and 4.04.

Section 2.14 Replacement of Lenders; Defaulting Lenders.

(a)(x) If any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, (y) upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.11(a)(B) or (C), Section 2.11(c) or Section 4.04 with respect to any Lender which results in such Lender charging to the Borrower increased costs in excess of those being generally charged by the other Lenders or (z) in the case of a refusal by a Lender to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to this Agreement that

requires the consent of each Lender or each directly and adversely affected Lender which has been approved by the Required Lenders as (and to the extent) provided in Section 12.12(a), the Borrower shall have the right, if no Event of Default then exists or would exist after giving effect to such replacement, by written notice, (I) to terminate all Commitments of such Lender and repay all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date or (II) in accordance with Section 12.04 to replace such Lender (the “Replaced Lender”) with one or more other Eligible Assignees, none of whom shall constitute a Defaulting Lender at the time of such replacement (collectively, the “Replacement Lender”) and each of which shall be reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and/or Revolving Agent (to the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent and/or Revolving Agent would be required under Section 12.04); provided that in the case of this clause (II):

(i)at the time of any replacement pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Replacement Lender shall enter into one or more Assignment and Assumptions pursuant to Section 12.04 (and with all fees payable pursuant to said Section 12.04 to be paid by the Replacement Lender and/or the Replaced Lender (as may be agreed to at such time by and among the Borrower, the Replacement Lender and the Replaced Lender)) pursuant to which the Replacement Lender shall acquire all of the Commitments, outstanding Loans and, in connection therewith, shall pay to the Replaced Lender in respect thereof an amount equal to an amount equal to the principal of, and all accrued interest on, all outstanding Loans of the respective Replaced Lender; and

(ii)all obligations of the Borrower then owing to the Replaced Lender (other than those specifically described in clause (i) above in respect of which the assignment purchase price has been, or is concurrently being, paid, but including all amounts, if any, owing under Section 2.12) shall be paid in full to such Replaced Lender concurrently with such replacement.

(b)Upon receipt by the Replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid to it pursuant to this Section 2.14, the Administrative Agent or the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) and is authorized (which authorization is coupled with an interest) to execute an Assignment and Assumption on behalf of such Replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Assumption so executed by the Administrative Agent and the Replacement Lender shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.14 and Section 12.04. Upon the execution of the respective Assignment and Assumption, the payment of amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) above (and, if so required by the Administrative Agent, the assignment fee referred to in Section 12.04 (which shall be payable by the Borrower or the Replacement Lender)), recordation of the assignment on the Term Loan Register by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.15(a) or the RCF Register by the Revolving Agent pursuant to Section 12.15(b) and, if so requested by the Replacement Lender, delivery to the Replacement Lender of the appropriate Note or Notes executed by the Borrower, the Replacement Lender shall become a Lender hereunder and the Replaced Lender shall cease to constitute a Lender hereunder, except with respect to indemnification provisions under this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 2.11, 2.12, 4.04, 11.06, 12.01 and 12.06), which shall survive as to such Replaced Lender. In the case of the substitution of a Lender pursuant to this Section, if the Lender being replaced does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (x) the date on which the Replacement Lender executed and delivers such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation and (y) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrower required to be paid to the Replaced Lender pursuant to this Section, then the Replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall each be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation on behalf

of such Replaced Lender. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(c)If any Swing Line Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i)all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swing Line Exposure and LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages, but only (y) to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment and (z) if requested in writing by the Revolving Agent, the Borrower shall have confirmed that the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation and if the Borrower cannot confirm such conditions have been satisfied (which shall not constitute a Default or an Event of Default) and such conditions have not otherwise been waived by the Required Revolving Lenders, then clause (ii) below shall apply;

(ii)if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Revolving Agent, (a) prepay such Swing Line Exposure of such Defaulting Lender and (b) Cash Collateralize such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.01(f)(ix) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

(iii)if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay the LC Participation Fee with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure so long as it is Cash Collateralized;

(iv)if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above, then the LC Participation Fee with respect to such portion shall be allocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Percentages;

(v)if any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither Cash Collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.14(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, the fee that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.01(c) (with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Commitment that was utilized by such LC Exposure) and the LC Participation Fee payable with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is Cash Collateralized and/or reallocated;

(vi)so long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loan and the Issuing Bank shall not be required to issue, amend, extend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be at least 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders and/or Cash Collateralized in accordance with this Section 2.14(c), and participations in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swing Line Loan shall be allocated among Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Percentages (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

(vii)any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14) may, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Collateral Agent in a segregated non-interest bearing account and, subject to any applicable Requirements of Law, be applied

at such time or times as may be determined by the Collateral Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Collateral Agent and Revolving Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Loan or the funding or Cash Collateralization of any participation in any Letter of Credit in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Revolving Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Revolving Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as Cash Collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower, the Issuing Bank, the Swing Line Lender, the Revolving Agent or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of LC Disbursements which a Defaulting Lender has funded in respect of its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender.

(d)Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Unused Commitment Fee shall cease to accrue on the Commitment of such Lender so long as it is a Defaulting Lender and such Defaulting Lender shall not be entitled to receive any Unused Commitment Fee pursuant to Section 3.01(e). If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, each Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Revolving Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Revolving Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.14(d)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the 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 Lender having been a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.15 Incremental Loan Commitments.

(a)At any time and from time to time after the Closing Date and prior to the Latest Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may by prior notice to the Administrative Agent, request to add one or more new credit facilities (each, an “Incremental Facility”) denominated in Dollars and consisting of (x) one or more additional tranches of term loans (each, an “Incremental Term Facility” and the term loans extended thereunder, the “Incremental Term Loans”) or (y) one or more additional tranches of revolving loans or an increase in Commitments under the then existing Revolving Facility (each, an “Incremental Revolving Facility” and the revolving loans

extended thereunder, the “Incremental Revolving Loans”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $25,000,000 for all such Incremental Revolving Loans, or a combination thereof, provided that (i) immediately before and after giving effect to each Incremental Amendment and the applicable Incremental Facility, no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and the representations and warranties in Article V shall be true and correct in all material respects; provided that to the extent the proceeds of any Incremental Facility are intended to be applied to finance a Limited Condition Acquisition, if agreed to by the Additional Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Facility, (x) the only representations and warranties that will be required to be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of any representations and warranties qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect, in all respects) as of the applicable closing date for such Incremental Facility shall be (A) customary “specified representations” with respect to the applicable acquired company or business and (B) such of the representations and warranties made by or on behalf of the applicable acquired company or business in the applicable acquisition agreement as are material to the interests of the Additional Incremental Lenders, but only to the extent that Holdings or the applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such acquisition agreement or not consummate such acquisition as a result of a breach of such representations or warranties in such acquisition agreement, and (y) the only condition with respect to absence of a Default or Event of Default shall be the absence of a Default or Event of Default at the time such acquisition agreement is entered into, (ii) the amount of Incremental Term Facilities and Permitted Incremental Equivalent Debt as of such date shall not be greater than the Maximum Incremental Term Facilities Amount permitted to be incurred on such date, (iii) no Incremental Loans shall benefit from any Guarantees or Collateral that do not ratably benefit the Loans and (iv) in the event that the Yield for any Incremental Term Loans incurred in reliance on clause (b)(i) of the definition of Maximum Incremental Term Facilities Amount that are pari passu in right of payment and with respect to security with the then existing Term Loans is higher than the Yield for the then existing Term Loans by more than 50 basis points, then the Applicable Margin for the then existing Term Loans shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the Yield for such then existing Term Loans is equal to the Yield for such Incremental Term Loans minus 50 basis points (the “MFN Adjustment”); provided that the MFN Adjustment shall not be applicable to (x) any Incremental Term Loans that are incurred more than 12 months after the Closing Date, (y) any Incremental Term Loans that have a maturity date more than one year after the Latest Maturity Date or (z) any Incremental Term Loans incurred in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other similar Investment. Each Incremental Facility shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000, provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Facilities set forth above. Any Lenders participating in an Incremental Revolving Facility, unless then a Revolving Lender, shall be reasonably acceptable to the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Bank, in each case under such Incremental Revolving Facility set forth above.

(b)Each Incremental Facility (i) shall rank (A) pari passu in right of payment and in respect of the Collateral with the Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments and the Term Loans made available to the Borrower (subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement if incurred under documentation outside of the Loan Documents) or (B) junior in right of payment and in respect of the Collateral with the Obligations in respect of the Revolving Commitments and the Term Loans made available to the Borrower or unsecured (and if secured, subject to the applicable Intercreditor Agreement, and if unsecured, shall be established as a separate facility under documentation outside of the Loan Documents), (ii) for purposes of prepayments, shall be treated no more favorably than the Initial Term Loans, in the case of an Incremental Term Facility, or the Initial Revolving Loans, in the case of an Incremental Revolving Facility, in each case except those that only apply after the then existing Latest Maturity Date, (iii) except as otherwise required or permitted in this Section 2.15,

shall have such terms, if not consistent with the terms of the Initial Term Loans, in the case of an Incremental Term Facility, or Revolving Loans, in the case of an Incremental Revolving Facility, as shall be agreed by the Borrower and the Additional Incremental Lenders providing such Incremental Term Facility or Incremental Revolving Facility; provided that to the extent such terms and documentation are not consistent with the then existing Term Loans or Revolving Loans (except to the extent relating to maturity, yield, use of proceeds or availability), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to the periods after the Latest Maturity Date of any then existing Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans or Revolving Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans) (it being understood to the extent that any financial maintenance covenant is added for the benefit of any Incremental Term Loans or Incremental Revolving Loans, no consent shall be required from the Administrative Agent or any Lender to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant is also added for the benefit of any corresponding existing Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as applicable, or if such financial maintenance covenant applies only after the payment in full of any then existing Term Loans); provided further that (A) no Incremental Term Facility shall have a final maturity date earlier than the Latest Maturity Date, (B) no Incremental Term Facility shall have a weighted average life that is shorter than the weighted average life of the latest maturing class of then-existing Term Loans (provided that, the immediately foregoing proviso shall not apply to up to $25,000,000 in Incremental Term Loans as selected by the Borrower (the “Incremental Maturity Exception”)) and (C) no Incremental Revolving Facility shall have a final maturity date earlier than the Initial Revolving Loan Maturity Date; provided, further, that to the extent any Incremental Facility is not pari passu in right of payment and in respect of the Collateral with the Obligations, it shall (except in the case of any Incremental Term Facility that is incurred as a last-out tranche) be documented pursuant to documentation other than the Loan Documents.

(c)Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Facility. Any additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that elects to provide Commitments under an Incremental Facility shall be reasonably satisfactory to (i) the Borrower and, (ii) if Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent or the Issuing Bank would have consent rights with respect to such new lender under Section 12.04 herein were such new lender to take an assignment of Loans hereunder, the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable (such consent of the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, not to be unreasonably withheld) (any such bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional Incremental Lender”) and, if not already a Lender, shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, the Borrower, such Additional Incremental Lender (in the case of this Agreement and, as appropriate, any other Loan Document, as applicable) and (to the extent it affects the rights or increases the obligations of the Administrative Agent or Revolving Agent), the Administrative Agent or Revolving Agent, as applicable). No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Commitments under an Incremental Facility, unless it so agrees (and any Lender that does not respond shall be conclusively presumed not to agree to provide additional Commitments). Commitments in respect of any Incremental Facilities shall become Commitments under this Agreement. An Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section (including to provide for voting provisions applicable to the Additional Incremental Lenders comparable to the provisions of Section 12.12 or any changes to Section 2.04 necessary to ensure such Incremental Term Facilities are fungible with the existing Term Loans if such Incremental Term Facility is intended to be of the same Class as the relevant existing Term Loans). The proceeds of any Loans under an Incremental Facility will be used, directly or indirectly, for working capital and/or general corporate purposes

and/or any other purposes not prohibited hereunder (including, without limitation, Restricted Payments and acquisitions).

(d)This Section 2.15 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.08 or 12.12 to the contrary.

Section 2.16 Loan Modification Offers.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders of Term Loans with a like maturity date or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, in each case on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the respective Term Loans or Revolving Commitments with a like maturity date, as the case may be) and offered on the same terms to each such Lender, the Borrower is hereby permitted to consummate from time to time transactions with individual Lenders that accept the terms contained in such Loan Modification Offers to extend the maturity date of each such Lender’s Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments and otherwise modify the terms of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments pursuant to the terms of the relevant Loan Modification Offer (including, without limitation, by increasing the interest rate, premiums or fees payable in respect of such Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings) and/or modifying (without increasing the Weighted Average Life to Maturity) the amortization schedule in respect of such Lender’s Term Loans) (each, an “Extension”, and each group of Term Loans, in each case as so extended, as well as the Initial Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, in each case, not so extended, being a separate Class; any Extended Term Loans shall constitute a separate Class of Term Loans from the Class of Term Loans from which they were converted and any Extended Revolving Commitments shall constitute a separate Class of Revolving Commitments from the Class of Revolving Commitments from which they were converted), so long as the following terms are satisfied:

(i)except as to interest rates, fees, premiums and final maturity (which shall be determined by the Borrower and set forth in the relevant Loan Modification Offer), the Revolving Commitment of any Revolving Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Revolving Commitment (an “Extending Revolving Loan Lender”) extended pursuant to an Extension (an “Extended Revolving Commitment” and the loans made pursuant thereto, the “Extended Revolving Loans”), and the related outstandings, shall be a Revolving Commitment (or related outstandings, as the case may be) with applicable terms prior to the maturity date of the Initial Revolving Loans no more favorable, in any material respect, taken as a whole, to the Extending Revolving Loan Lenders than the terms of the Initial Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings); provided that (1) the borrowing and repayment (except for (A) payments of interest and fees at different rates on Extended Revolving Commitments (and related outstandings), (B) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extended Revolving Commitments and (C) repayments made in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments (subject to clause (3) below) of Loans with respect to Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, (2) all Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans shall be participated on a pro rata basis by all Lenders with Revolving Commitments in accordance with their percentage of the Revolving Commitments, (3) the permanent repayment of Revolving Loans with respect to, and termination of, Extended Revolving Commitments after the applicable Extension date shall be made on a pro rata basis with all other Revolving Commitments, except that the Borrower shall be permitted to permanently repay and terminate commitments of any such Class on a non-pro rata basis as compared to any other Class with a later maturity date than such Class, (4) assignments and

participations of Extended Revolving Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the same assignment and participation provisions applicable to Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, (5) at no time shall there be Revolving Commitments hereunder (including Extended Revolving Commitments and any Initial Revolving Commitments) which have more than four different maturity dates and (6) except as the Swing Line Lender may otherwise agree, Swing Line Loans shall be required to be paid in full on the maturity date of the non-extended Revolving Commitments (and may, for the avoidance of doubt, be re-borrowed pursuant to the terms hereof after such maturity date),

(ii)the Term Loans of any Lender that agrees to an Extension with respect to such Term Loans (an “Extending Term Lender”) extended pursuant to any Extension (“Extended Term Loans”) shall be a Term Loans which shall be extended pursuant to a Loan Modification Offer and shall have terms substantially identical to, or taken as a whole, no more favorable to the Extending Term Lenders, as the original Term Loans except as to interest rates, fees, final maturity and, after the Latest Maturity Date that is in effect on the effective date of such Extended Term Loans (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loans) with respect to Term Loans, any other covenants and provisions (which shall be determined by the Borrower and the Extending Term Lenders and set forth in the relevant Loan Modification Offer); provided that (A) the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loans shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date then in effect in respect of then existing Term Facilities, (B) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loans shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans extended thereby, (C) no Extended Term Loans may be optionally or mandatorily prepaid prior to the date on which all Term Loans with an earlier final stated maturity (including existing Term Loans from which they were amended) are repaid in full, unless such optional or mandatory prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional or mandatory prepayment (subject to any right of the relevant Lenders to decline the same) of such other Term Loans, (D) any such Extended Term Loans (and the Liens securing the same) shall be subject to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement then in effect and (E) any Extended Term Loans may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) (subject to any right of the relevant Lenders to decline the same) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Loan Modification Offer,

(iii)if the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, in respect of which Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall have accepted the relevant Loan Modification Offer shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as the case may be, offered to be extended by the Borrower pursuant to such Loan Modification Offer, then the Term Loans or Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, shall be extended ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts (but not to exceed actual holdings of record) with respect to which such Term Lenders or Revolving Lenders, as the case may be, have accepted such Loan Modification Offer,

(iv)all documentation in respect of such Extension shall be consistent with the foregoing, and

(v)any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower.

(b)With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.16, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Section 4.01 or 4.02 and (ii) no Loan Modification Offer is required to be in any minimum

amount or any minimum increment, provided that the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Loan Modification Offer in the Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by the Borrower) of Term Loans or Revolving Commitments (as applicable) of any or all applicable Classes be tendered. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.16 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans and/or Extended Revolving Commitments on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Loan Modification Offer) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, any pro rata payment section) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit or restrict any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.16. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(c)No consent of any Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to effectuate any Extension, other than (i) the consent of each Lender agreeing to such Extension with respect to one or more of its Term Loans and/or Revolving Commitments (or a portion thereof), (ii) with respect to any Extension of the Revolving Commitments, the consent of the Revolving Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swing Line Lender (except to the extent such Swing Line Loan has been terminated by the Borrower), and (iii) to the extent affecting the rights or increasing the obligations of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent beyond those of the type already required to perform under the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided, the Borrower will promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of any such Extensions. All Extended Term Loans, Extended Revolving Commitments and all obligations in respect thereof shall be Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents that are secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with all other applicable Obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and, to the extent applicable, the Collateral Agent, to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, an “Extension Amendment”) with the Borrower and other Loan Parties as may be necessary in order to establish new Classes in respect of Revolving Commitments or Term Loans so extended and such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower in connection with the establishment of such new Classes, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.16, and the effectiveness of any Extension Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with such Extension Amendment) on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent of (i) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans, as applicable, are provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents. In addition, any such amendment shall provide that, to the extent consented to by each relevant Issuing Bank, (a) with respect to any Letters of Credit the expiration date for which extend beyond the maturity date for the non-extended Revolving Commitments, participations in such Letters of Credit on such maturity date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment (provided that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted

accordingly) and (b) limitations on drawings of Revolving Loans and issuances, extensions and amendments to Letters of Credit shall be implemented giving effect to the foregoing reallocation prior to such reallocation actually occurring to ensure that sufficient Extended Revolving Commitments are available to participate in any such Letters of Credit. Without limiting the foregoing, in connection with any Extensions the respective Loan Parties shall (at their expense) amend (and the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent are hereby directed to amend) any Mortgage that has a maturity date prior to the latest termination date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments so that such maturity date is extended to the latest termination date of any Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments (or such later date as may be advised by local counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent). No Lender shall be required to participate in any Extension. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(d)In connection with any Extension, the Borrower shall provide the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days’ and not more than thirty Business Days’ (or such other period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and shall agree to such procedures (to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension), if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.16. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(e)This Section 2.16 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.08 or 12.12 to the contrary and no conversion of Loans pursuant to any Extension in accordance with this Section 2.16 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.17 Refinancing Amendments. At any time after the Closing Date, the Borrower may, subject to the third from last sentence of this Section, obtain from any existing Lender or any other Eligible Assignee reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and, in the case of any Other Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Agent, the Swing Line Lender and the Issuing Bank (any such existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional Refinancing Lender”) Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness under this Agreement in respect of (a) all or any portion of the Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (a) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Term Loans) or (b) all or any portion of the Revolving Commitments (including the corresponding portion of the Revolving Loans) under this Agreement (which for purposes of this clause (b) will be deemed to include any then outstanding Other Revolving Commitments (including the corresponding portion of the Other Revolving Loans), in the form of (x) Other Term Loans or Other Term Commitments, in the case of clause (a) or (y) Other Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Commitments in the case of clause (b), in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment; provided that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (i) will (A) rank pari passu in right of payment and of security or (B) be unsecured and rank pari passu or junior in right of payment, in each case, with the other Loans and Commitments hereunder, (ii) have such pricing, interest, fees, premiums and optional prepayment terms as may be agreed by Borrower and the Additional Refinancing Lenders thereof, (iii) not be secured by any assets that do not constitute Collateral, (iv) will be borrowed by the Borrower and guaranteed solely by Holdings and the Subsidiary Guarantors (or a person that becomes a Subsidiary Guarantor at the time of incurrence of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness), (v) shall provide that each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness shall be prepaid and repaid (or offered to be repaid, as applicable) on a pro rata basis with all voluntary prepayments and mandatory prepayments (other than amortization payments) of the corresponding Class of Refinanced Debt (or, as may be agreed to by the Lenders and Additional Refinancing Lenders providing such Credit Agreement Refinancing

Indebtedness in the respective Refinancing Amendment, otherwise provide for more favorable prepayment treatment for such other Classes of Refinanced Debt), (vi) will not have a shorter final maturity (or a shorter Weighted Average Life to Maturity), than the respective Class of Refinanced Debt, (vii) shall, if the Refinanced Debt is subordinated in right of payment to, or to the Lien securing, the Obligations, be subordinated in right of payment to, or to the Liens securing, the Obligations, as applicable, on terms (a) at least as favorable (taken as a whole) (as reasonably determined by the Borrower) to the Lenders as those contained in the documentation governing the Refinanced Debt or (b) otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and (viii) except as permitted in clause (ii) above, the other terms and conditions of such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (excluding pricing, fees and optional prepayment or redemption terms) are, taken as a whole, not materially more favorable (as determined by the Borrower) to the Lenders providing such Indebtedness than those applicable to the Refinanced Debt (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the then-applicable Latest Maturity Date of the of the applicable Refinanced Debt). The effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment) on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 6.02 and, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, receipt by the Administrative Agent of (i) customary legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (ii) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Security Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent in order to ensure that such Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness is provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents and (iii) such other conditions as are mutually agreed with the participating Additional Refinancing Lenders. Each Class of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness (other than in connection with an extension of the maturity of Term Loans) incurred under this Section 2.17 shall be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000, provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness set forth above. Any Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrower, or the provision to the Borrower of Swing Line Loans, pursuant to any Other Revolving Commitments established thereby, in each case on terms substantially equivalent to the terms (other than with respect to requirements to satisfy financial covenants prior to issuance of Letters of Credit or borrowing Swing Line Loans) applicable to Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans under this Agreement before giving effect to such Refinancing Amendment. In addition, any such amendment shall provide that, if consented to by each relevant Issuing Bank, (a) with respect to any Letters of Credit the expiration date for which extend beyond the maturity date for the non-refinanced Revolving Commitments, participations in such Letters of Credit on such maturity date shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Commitments to Lenders holding refinanced Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such amendment (provided that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding Revolving Commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such Revolving Commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including, without limitation, the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly) and (b) limitations on drawings of Revolving Loans and issuances, extensions and amendments to Letters of Credit shall be implemented giving effect to the foregoing reallocation prior to such reallocation actually occurring to ensure that sufficient refinanced Revolving Commitments are available to participate in any such Letters of Credit. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness incurred pursuant thereto

(including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Term Loans, Other Revolving Loans, Other Revolving Commitments and/or Other Term Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section and each Lender hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent to enter into any such Refinancing Amendment. Each Additional Refinancing Lender shall be an Eligible Assignee and any Other Term Loans held by the Sponsor, any Affiliated Lender, any Affiliated Investment Fund, or any Restricted Affiliated Lender shall be subject to the same restrictions applicable to assignments to such persons as set forth in Sections 12.04 and 12.12 hereof (including voting restrictions and, where applicable, an aggregate cap on the amount of Term Loans held by such persons, in each case, pursuant to the terms set forth in this Agreement). No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Credit Agreement Refinancing Indebtedness, unless it so agrees. This Section 2.17 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.08 or 12.12 to the contrary. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

The Unused Commitment Fee shall accrue at all times during the Revolving Availability Period, including at any time during which one or more of the conditions in Article VI is not met, and shall be due and payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower during the Revolving Availability Period, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the last day of the Revolving Availability Period.

(f)LC Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Revolving Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender (excluding any Defaulting Lender) a participation fee (“LC Participation Fee”) with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue from time to time at a rate equal to the percentage in clause (b)(ii) of the definition of “Applicable Margin” on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Reimbursement Obligations) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the Issuing Bank a fronting fee (“Fronting Fee”), which shall accrue at 0.25% on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to Reimbursement Obligations) during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Revolving Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure, as well as the Issuing Bank’s reasonable customary fees with respect to the issuance, amendment or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Accrued LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be payable in arrears (i) on the last Business Day of each Fiscal Quarter of the Borrower of each year, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Closing Date, and (ii) on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate. Any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable promptly on written demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within (10) Business Days after written demand therefor. All LC Participation Fees and Fronting Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

Section 3.02 Termination of Commitments.

(a)The Total Initial Term Loan Commitment (and the Initial Term Loan Commitment of each Lender) shall terminate in its entirety on the Closing Date (after giving effect to the Incurrence by the Borrower of Initial Term Loans on such date). The Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall terminate on the Delayed Draw Termination Date.

(b)At its option, the Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Section 2.12), permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is not less than $250,000 and (ii) the Revolving Commitments shall not be terminated or reduced if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 4.01, the aggregate amount of Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments.

(c)The Borrower shall notify the Revolving Agent in writing of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under Section 3.02(b) not later than 2:00 p.m. one Business Day (or, in the case of a prepayment of LIBOR Loans, three (3) Business Days or such shorter period as the Revolving Agent may agree in its sole discretion) prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any

notice, the Revolving Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the consummation of any other transaction or the occurrence of any other event specified therein, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Revolving Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. With respect to the effectiveness of any such other credit facilities or the closing of any such securities offering, the Borrower may extend the date of termination at any time with the consent of the Revolving Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

ARTICLE IV

PREPAYMENTS; PAYMENTS; TAXES

Section 4.01 Voluntary Prepayments.

(a)The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Loans, in whole or in part, in each case, without premium or penalty (except, in the case of Term Loans, as provided in Section 4.01(c) and, in the case of all Loans, as provided in Section 2.12). Subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrower may reborrow any Revolving Loans that have been prepaid.

(b)Any prepayment of Loans shall be made upon irrevocable notice (subject to revocation as, and in the circumstances, set forth in clause (II) below) delivered to the Administrative Agent (and, to the extent solely with respect to the Revolving Loans, the Revolving Agent) no later than Noon (New York City time) three Business Days prior thereto, in the case of LIBOR Loans, and no later than Noon (New York City time) on the date of such payment, in the case of Base Rate Loans, which notice shall specify the date and amount of prepayment, identify the Class and Tranche of the prepayment of Loans and whether the prepayment is of LIBOR Loans or Base Rate Loans; provided, that if a LIBOR Loan is prepaid on any day other than the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.12; and provided, further, that (I) each voluntary prepayment of Loans pursuant to this Section 4.01(b) shall be applied at the Borrower’s election, to the Revolving Loans exclusively or to each Tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis (other than a prepayment of Loans with the proceeds of (x) Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 2.17 or (y) Indebtedness Incurred under Section 8.01(d), which, in each case, shall be applied to the Tranche of Loans being Refinanced pursuant thereto) and (II) if such notice of prepayment indicates that such prepayment is to be funded with the proceeds of a Refinancing of the Term Facilities, Revolving Facilities or otherwise conditioned upon the consummation of any other transaction or the occurrence of any event (including an acquisition or a Change of Control), such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such Refinancing is not consummated or such condition is not satisfied, subject to payment of any costs referred to in Section 2.12. Upon receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent (and Revolving Agent, if applicable) shall promptly notify each relevant Lender thereof. If any such notice is given, the amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together with accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. Prepayments shall be accompanied by Prepayment Fees required by Section 4.01(c), if applicable, and accrued interest. Partial prepayments of Term Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of at least $1,000,000 or, if less, the outstanding principal amount of such Borrowing. Prepayments of Revolving Loans and Swing Line Loans shall be an aggregate principal amount not less than the lesser of (i) $1,000,000 and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of all such Revolving Loans or Swing Line Loans outstanding.

(c)If the Borrower (x) prepays, refinances, converts, substitutes or replaces any Term Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction, or (y) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, then the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the Lenders holding Term Loans immediately prior to the consummation of such Repricing Transaction (including each Lender holding Term Loans immediately prior to the consummation of such Repricing Transaction that withholds its consent to such Repricing Transaction and is replaced as a Replaced Lender under Section 2.14), (I) in the case of clause (x), a prepayment premium equal to the Applicable Prepayment Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans so prepaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced and (II) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to the Applicable Prepayment Percentage of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment. Such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction (as applicable, the “Prepayment Fees”); provided that, for the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower shall not be subject to the requirements of this Section 4.01(c) with respect to any Repricing Transaction occurring after the date that is six months after the Closing Date.

(d)All voluntary prepayments of a Tranche of Term Loans in accordance with this Section 4.01 shall be applied to the remaining amortization payments of the respective Tranches of Term Loans as directed by the Borrower (or, if the Borrower has not made such designation, in direct order of maturity).

Section 4.02 Mandatory Repayments.

(a)If any Indebtedness shall be incurred by Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (other than any Indebtedness permitted to be incurred in accordance with Section 8.01 (excluding Section 8.01(d) any Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 2.17)), not later than two Business Days after the incurrence of such Indebtedness, an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof shall be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this Section 4.02.

(b)If, for any Excess Cash Flow Period, there shall be Excess Cash Flow for such Excess Cash Flow Period in excess of $2,500,000, an amount equal to the excess of (i) the applicable ECF Percentage of such Excess Cash Flow over the sum of (ii) to the extent financed with internally generated cash flows and without duplication of any deductions made in the calculation of Excess Cash Flow, the aggregate principal amount of all (x) optional prepayments of Term Loans (other than Loans Cancelled pursuant to Section 12.04), Incremental Term Loans and Permitted Incremental Equivalent Debt made, (y) Loans acquired by a Permitted Auction Purchaser and which have been Cancelled and (z) optional prepayments of Revolving Loans, but only to the extent accompanied by a concurrent permanent reduction of the Revolving Commitments in a corresponding amount (other than Loans Cancelled pursuant to Section 12.04), in each case, during such Excess Cash Flow Period, shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, be applied toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in this Section 4.02; provided that the amount pursuant to this Section 4.02(b) shall be no less than $0. Each such prepayment shall, commencing with the Fiscal Year ending December 31, 2019, be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than five Business Days after the earlier of (i) the date on which the financial statements of Holdings referred to in Section 7.01(a), for the Fiscal Year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered and (ii) the date such financial statements are actually delivered.

(c)If on any date Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or any Recovery Event, then 100% (or, if the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio on a Pro Forma Basis for such Asset Sale or Recovery Event, as of the date of the most recently completed Measurement Period, is less than or equal to 0.81:1.00 (or 1.08:1.00 if the Specified Acquisition has been consummated), 50%) of such Net Cash Proceeds (the “Asset Sale Sweep

Percentage”) shall be applied within ten Business Days of such date to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with this Section 4.02; provided, that the Borrower shall have the option, directly or through one or more of its Restricted Subsidiaries, to reinvest such Net Cash Proceeds within one year of receipt thereof (or, if later, 180 days after the date the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary thereof has entered into a binding commitment to reinvest the Net Cash Proceeds thereof prior to the expiration of such one year period) in assets used in or useful in the business of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries; provided, further, that all such Net Cash Proceeds not so reinvested within such period must be applied in accordance with this Section 4.02(c) without giving effect to the proviso herein.

(d)In the event of any partial reduction of the Revolving Commitments, then (x) at or prior to the effective date of such reduction, the Revolving Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders of the sum of the Revolving Exposures after giving effect thereto and (y) if the sum of the Revolving Exposures would exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such reduction, then the Borrower shall, on the date of such reduction, first, repay or prepay Swing Line Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Borrowings and outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, and third, at the Borrower’s option, either cause one or more outstanding Letters of Credit to be cancelled at the written request of the beneficiary(ies) thereof or cash collateralized in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.01(f)(ix), in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(e)In the event that the sum of all Lenders’ Revolving Exposures exceeds the Revolving Commitments then in effect, the Borrower shall, without notice or demand, immediately first, repay or prepay Swing Line Loans, second, repay or prepay Revolving Borrowings and outstanding Reimbursement Obligations, and third, at the Borrower’s option, either cause one or more outstanding Letters of Credit to be cancelled at the written request of the beneficiary(ies) thereof or cash collateralized in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.01(f)(ix), in an aggregate amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(f)[Reserved].

(g)Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made pursuant to clauses (a) through (c) of this Section 4.02 shall be applied without premium or penalty to, first, each Tranche of Term Loans on a pro rata basis (or, in each case, if agreed to in writing by the Majority Lenders of a Tranche of Term Loans (other than the Initial Term Loans or the Delayed Draw Term Loans), in a manner that provides for more favorable prepayment treatment of other Tranches of Term Loans, so long as each other such Tranche receives its pro rata share of any amount to be applied more favorably, except to the extent otherwise agreed by the Majority Lenders of each Tranche receiving less than such pro rata share) (other than a prepayment of Term Loans with the proceeds of (x) Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 2.17 or (y) Indebtedness Incurred under Section 8.01(d), which, in each case, shall be applied to the Tranche of Term Loans being Refinanced pursuant thereto). Second, after application of mandatory prepayments to each Tranche of Term Loans described above in this Section 4.02(g) and to the extent there are mandatory prepayment amounts remaining after such application, such amounts shall be applied to ratably reduce the outstanding Revolving Loans in an aggregate amount equal to such excess (without a corresponding reduction of the Revolving Commitments). Third, after application of mandatory prepayments to the Revolving Loans described above in this Section 4.02(g) and to the extent there are mandatory prepayment amounts remaining after such application, such amounts shall be applied to Cash Collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit (without a corresponding reduction of commitments thereunder). Amounts to be applied to a Tranche of Term Loans in connection with prepayments made pursuant to this Section 4.02 shall be applied to the remaining scheduled installments with respect to such Tranche of Term Loans as directed by the Borrower (or, if the Borrower has not made such designation, in direct order of maturity). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any prepayment under

Section 4.02(c), the Borrower may use a portion of the Net Cash Proceeds to prepay or repurchase Permitted Incremental Equivalent Debt, Indebtedness incurred pursuant to Section 8.01(d) and any other senior Indebtedness in each case secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Liens securing the Obligations (the “Applicable Other Indebtedness”) to the extent required or permitted pursuant to the terms of the documentation governing such Applicable Other Indebtedness, in which case, the amount of the prepayment required to be offered with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds pursuant to Section 4.02(c) shall be deemed to be the amount equal to the product of (x) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to Section 4.02(c) and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Applicable Other Indebtedness and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans required to be prepaid pursuant to Section 4.02(c).

(h)The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (who will notify each Lender) notice of each prepayment required under clauses (a) through (c) of this Section 4.02 not less than three Business Days prior to the date such prepayment is required to be made (each such date, a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”). Such notice shall set forth (i) the Mandatory Prepayment Date, (ii) the principal amount of each Term Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid and (iii) the Class and Type of each Term Loan being prepaid. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender holding Term Loans of each Tranche being prepaid of the contents of the Borrower’s repayment notice and of such Lender’s pro rata share of the respective Tranche of Term Loans subject to such repayment. Subject to the Borrower’s consent, each such Lender holding Term Loans under a Tranche may, except in the case of any repayment of Term Loans with proceeds of Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 8.01(d) or Indebtedness Incurred pursuant to Section 2.17, reject all or a portion of its pro rata share of any mandatory repayment (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”) of Term Loans of such Tranche required to be made pursuant to this Section 4.02 by providing written notice (each, a “Rejection Notice”) to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Business Day after the date of such Lender’s receipt of notice from the Administrative Agent regarding such repayment (“Initial Rejection Notice Deadline”). Each Rejection Notice from a given Lender holding Term Loans under a Tranche shall specify the principal amount of the mandatory repayment of Term Loans of such Tranche to be rejected by such Lender. If a Lender holding Term Loans under a Tranche fails to deliver such Rejection Notice to the Administrative Agent within the time frame specified above or such Rejection Notice fails to specify the principal amount of the Term Loans of such Tranche to be rejected, any such failure will be deemed an acceptance of the total amount of such mandatory repayment of Term Loans of such Tranche to which such Lender is otherwise entitled. At the option of the Borrower, any Declined Proceeds with respect to a Tranche of Term Loans may be offered within 10 Business Days of the Initial Rejection Notice Deadline to the Lenders holding Term Loans of such Tranche not so declining such repayment on a pro rata basis in accordance with the principal amounts of the Term Loans under such Tranche of such Lenders (with such non‑declining Lenders having the right to decline any repayment with Declined Proceeds at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent). To the extent such Lenders elect to decline their pro rata share of such Declined Proceeds following an offer from the Borrowers pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence any such Declined Proceeds remaining thereafter (the “Remaining Declined Proceeds”) shall increase the Available Amount. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(i)With respect to each repayment of Term Loans required by this Section 4.02, the Borrower may designate, within each respective Class to be repaid, the Types of Term Loans of the respective Tranche which are to be repaid and, in the case of LIBOR Loans, the specific Borrowing or Borrowings of the respective Tranche pursuant to which such LIBOR Loans were made, provided

that: (i) unless the Borrower complies with the provisions of Section 2.12, repayments of LIBOR Loans pursuant to this Section 4.02 may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless all LIBOR Loans of the respective Tranche with Interest Periods ending on such date of required repayment and all Base Rate Loans of the respective Tranche have been paid in full; (ii) if any repayment of LIBOR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing shall reduce the outstanding LIBOR Loans made pursuant to such Borrowing to an amount less than the Minimum Borrowing Amount applicable thereto, such Borrowing shall be automatically converted into a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans; and (iii) each repayment of any Term Loans made pursuant to a Borrowing shall be applied pro rata among such Term Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the election of the Borrower, and after all Base Rate Loans and LIBOR Loans with Interest Periods ended on such date of the respective Class have been paid in full, the amount of any prepayment of Term Loans required under this Section 4.02 may be deposited in an escrow account on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and applied to the prepayment of LIBOR Loans upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Periods (in direct order of maturity for the respective Class); provided, that if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may, and upon the written direction from the Required Lenders, shall, apply any or all of such amounts then on deposit in such escrow account to the payment of the respective Class of such Loans, together with any amounts owing to the Lenders in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.12. In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its sole discretion.

(j)Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 4.02, (i) to the extent that any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds from a Disposition or Recovery Event by a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment requirement under Section 4.02(c) (a “Foreign Asset Sale”) or any amount included in Excess Cash Flow and attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries (“Foreign Subsidiary Excess Cash Flow”) are (A) prohibited or delayed by applicable local law (including, without limitation, restrictions on financial assistance, corporate benefit, upstreaming of cash intra-group and the fiduciary and statutory duties of directors of the applicable Subsidiaries) from being repatriated to the United States or (B) not permitted by any applicable material restriction in any such Foreign Subsidiary’s Organizational Documents (including as a result of minority ownership) to be repatriated to the United States; (so long as such restrictions were not implemented solely for the purpose of avoiding such required prepayment), such portion of the Net Cash Proceeds or Foreign Subsidiary Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Loans at the times provided in this Section 4.02 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law or provisions of the applicable Organizational Document will not permit repatriation to the United States, and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Foreign Subsidiary Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law or Organizational Document, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds and an amount equal to the full amount of such Foreign Subsidiary Excess Cash Flow that could be repatriated will be promptly (and in any event not later than two (2) Business Days after such repatriation is permitted) applied (net of an amount equal to additional taxes of the Borrower, its Subsidiaries and the direct and indirect holders of Capital Stock in the Borrower that would be payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans as required pursuant to this Section 4.02 and (ii) to the extent that the Borrower has reasonably determined in good faith that repatriation of, or the obligation to repatriate, any of or all the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale or Excess Cash Flow would have an adverse tax consequence (other than de minimis consequences) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary, provided that, in the case of this clause (ii) such limitation on prepayments shall apply only for so long as such prepayment, or the obligation to prepay, would result in such tax consequences, and to the extent that

within two years of the date on which such payment is required, the Borrower determines in good faith that such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow ceases to result in any such adverse tax consequence with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds will be promptly applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof) to the repayment of the Loans as required pursuant to this Section 4.02.

Section 4.03 Method and Place of Payment. Except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement and under any Note shall be made to the Administrative Agent (or, solely with respect to the Revolving Loans, the Revolving Agent) for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date when due and shall be made in Dollars in immediately available funds at the Payment Office. Whenever any payment to be made hereunder or under any Note shall be stated to be due on a day which is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall be payable at the applicable rate during such extension.

Section 4.04 Net Payments.

(a)Except as provided in this Section 4.04(a), all payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder and under any Loan Document will be made without setoff, counterclaim or other defense. All such payments will be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes with respect to such payments, unless required by applicable law. If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted, the Borrower or Guarantors, if applicable, agree to pay the full amount of such Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, such additional amounts to the recipient as may be necessary so that every payment of all amounts due under this Agreement or under any Loan Document will not be less than the amount provided for herein or in such Loan Document after withholding or deduction for or on account of such Indemnified Taxes (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 4.04(a)). As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes, the Borrower or Guarantors, if applicable, will furnish to the Administrative Agent certified copies of the receipt issued by the relevant Governmental Authority evidencing such payment by such Borrower or Guarantor or such other evidence as is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower or Guarantors, if applicable, agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and to reimburse such Person for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes so levied or imposed (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 4.04(a)) and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority and paid by such Person, within 10 days after written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability and the reasons therefor in reasonable detail delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower or Guarantors, if applicable, 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. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(b)Without limiting the generality of Section 4.04(c), each Lender and the Administrative Agent that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or

in the case of the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower) on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, two accurate, complete and executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑9 certifying to such Person’s entitlement to exemption from United States federal backup withholding. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent that is not a United States Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) for U.S. federal income tax purposes (each, a “Foreign Lender”) agrees to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or in the case of the Administrative Agent, to deliver to the Borrower) on or prior to the date it becomes a party to this Agreement, whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)two accurate, complete and executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8ECI, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto;

(ii)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 Loan Document, two accurate, complete and executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, certifying to such Person’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other payments to be made under any Loan Document, Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto, certifying to such Person’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from, or reduction of, United States withholding tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(iii)two accurate, complete and executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8IMY, or any subsequent versions thereof of successors thereto, and all required supporting documentation (such supporting documentation to include Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E for each beneficial owner of any payments made hereunder); or

(iv)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code: (A) two executed certificates providing that such Foreign Lender is not (1) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code; (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code; or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, which certificates shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit I (any such certificate, a “Non‑Bank Certificate”) and (B) two accurate, complete and executed originals of Internal Revenue Service Form W‑8BEN or Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto) certifying to such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from United States withholding tax with respect to payments of interest to be made under this Agreement and under any Note.

In addition, the Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that from time to time after the Closing Date, when a change in circumstances renders the previous certification inaccurate in any material respect, it will deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two new accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI, Form W-8BEN or Form W-8BEN-E (with respect to the benefits of any income tax treaty), Form W-8BEN of Form W-8BEN-E (with respect to the portfolio interest exemption) and a Non-Bank Certificate, or Form W-9, as the case may be (or any subsequent versions thereof or successors thereto), in order to confirm or establish its continued entitlement to a complete exemption from United State withholding tax or backup withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note, or it shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (if applicable) of its inability to deliver any such form or

certificate pursuant to this Section 4.04(b). With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this paragraph shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(c)If any Lender or the Administrative Agent is entitled to an exemption from or reduction in withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Note, then such Lender and the Administrative Agent agree to deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent upon request such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(d)If a payment made to a Lender or the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Person were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting or withholding requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code or an intergovernmental agreement) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Person has complied with such Person’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.04(d), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the Closing Date. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

(e)If the Borrower or Guarantor pays any additional amount or makes any indemnity payment under this Section 4.04 to a Lender or the Administrative Agent and such Lender or the Administrative Agent determines in its sole discretion exercised in good faith that it has received any refund of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or any Guarantor (a “Refund”), such Lender or the Administrative Agent shall pay to the Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, such Refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 4.04 with respect to Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes giving rise to such Refund) net of all out‑of‑pocket expenses (including taxes) in respect of such Refund and without interest; provided, however, that (i) any Lender or the Administrative Agent may determine, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith consistent with its policies, whether to seek a Refund; (ii) any Taxes, costs, penalties, interest or other charges that are imposed on a Lender or the Administrative Agent as a result of a disallowance or reduction of any Refund with respect to which such Lender or the Administrative Agent has made a payment to the Borrower or a Guarantor pursuant to this Section 4.04(e) (and any interest or penalties imposed thereon) shall be treated as a Tax for which the Borrower or Guarantors, as the case may be, are obligated to indemnify such Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 4.04 without any exclusions or defenses; (iii) nothing in this Section 4.04(e) shall require any Lender or the Administrative Agent to disclose any confidential information to the Borrower or the Guarantors (including, without limitation, its tax returns); and (iv) no Lender or the Administrative Agent shall be required to pay any amounts pursuant to this Section 4.04(e) at any time which an Event of Default exists (provided that such amounts shall be credited against amounts otherwise owed under this Agreement by the Borrower or Guarantors); and (v) notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 4.04(e), in no event will the Lender or Administrative Agent be required to pay any amount to the Borrower or Guarantors the payment of which would place the Lender or Administrative Agent in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Lender or Administrative Agent would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional

amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. With respect to Revolving Loans, each reference to the Administrative Agent in this clause shall also be deemed to be a reference to the Revolving Agent.

equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

The UCC fixture filings on form UCC‑1 for filing under the UCC in the appropriate jurisdictions in which the Mortgaged Properties covered by the applicable Mortgages are located, will be effective upon filing to create in favor of the Collateral Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the fixtures created by the Mortgages and described therein, and when the UCC fixture filings are filed in the recording offices for the applicable jurisdictions in which the Mortgaged Properties are located, each such UCC fixture filing shall constitute a fully perfected security interest in the fixtures, as security for the Secured Obligations (as defined in the relevant Mortgage), in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person other than holders of Liens permitted under Section 8.02.

GUARANTEE

Section 9.01 The Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and permitted assigns, the prompt payment in full when due (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of (1) the principal of and interest (including any interest, fees, costs or charges that would accrue but for the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code after any bankruptcy or insolvency petition under the Bankruptcy Code or any similar law of any other jurisdiction) on (i) the Loans made by the Lenders to the Borrower, and (ii) the Notes held by each Lender of the Borrower and (2) all other Obligations from time to time owing to the Secured Parties by the Loan Parties (such obligations being herein called the “Guaranteed Obligations”; provided that Guaranteed Obligations shall exclude all Excluded Swap Obligations). Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally agrees that, if the Borrower shall fail to pay in full in cash when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) any of the Guaranteed Obligations, such Guarantor will promptly pay the same in cash, without any demand or notice whatsoever, and that in the case of any extension of time of payment or renewal of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, the same will be promptly paid in full in cash when due (whether at extended maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) in accordance with the terms of such extension or renewal. Notwithstanding any provision hereof or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, in the event that any Guarantor is not an “eligible contract participant” as such term is defined in Section 1(a)(18) of the Commodity Exchange Act, as amended at the time (i) any transaction is entered into under a Secured Swap Agreement or (ii) such Guarantor becomes a Guarantor hereunder, the Guaranteed Obligations of such Guarantor shall not include (x) in the case of clause (i) above, such transaction and (y) in the case of clause (ii) above, any transactions under Secured Swap Agreements as of such date.

Section 9.02 Obligations Unconditional. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 9.01 shall constitute a guarantee of payment (and not of collection) and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, are absolute, irrevocable and unconditional, joint and several, irrespective of the value, genuineness, validity, regularity or enforceability of the Guaranteed Obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement, the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or any substitution, release or exchange of any other guarantee of or security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations, irrespective of any other circumstance whatsoever that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety by any Guarantor, as applicable (except for payment in full). Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is agreed that the occurrence of any one or more of the following shall not alter or impair the liability of any Guarantor hereunder, which shall, in each case, remain absolute, irrevocable and unconditional under any and all circumstances as described above:

(a)at any time or from time to time, without notice to any Guarantor, the time for any performance of or compliance with any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be extended, or such performance or compliance shall be waived;

(b)any of the acts mentioned in any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be done or omitted;

(c)the maturity of any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be accelerated, or any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall be amended in any respect, or any right under the Loan Documents or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein shall be amended or waived in any respect or any other guarantee of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security therefor shall be released or exchanged in whole or in part or otherwise dealt with;

(d)any Lien or security interest granted to, or in favor of any Lender or the Collateral Agent as security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations shall fail to be perfected; or

(e)the release of any other Guarantor pursuant to Section 9.08, or otherwise.

Each of the Guarantors hereby expressly waives (to the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law) diligence, presentment, demand of payment, protest and all notices whatsoever, and any requirement that any Secured Party exhaust any right, power or remedy or proceed against the Borrower or any Guarantor under this Agreement or the Notes, if any, or any other agreement or instrument referred to herein or therein, or against any other person under any other guarantee of, or security for, any of the Guaranteed Obligations. Each of the Guarantors waives (to the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law) any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension, waiver, termination or accrual of any of the Guaranteed Obligations and notice of or proof of reliance by any Secured Party upon this guarantee made under Section 9.01 (this “Guarantee”) or acceptance of this Guarantee, and the Guaranteed Obligations, and any of them, shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred in reliance upon this Guarantee, and all dealings between the Borrower and the Secured Parties shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon this Guarantee. This Guarantee shall be construed as a continuing, absolute, irrevocable and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to any right of offset with respect to the Guaranteed Obligations at any time or from time to time held by the Secured Parties and the obligations and liabilities of the Guarantors hereunder shall not be conditioned or contingent upon the pursuit by the Secured Parties or any other person at any time of any right or remedy against the Borrower or against any other person which may be or become liable in respect of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or against any collateral security or guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto. This Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and be binding in accordance with and to the extent of its terms upon the Guarantors and the successors and assigns thereof, and shall inure to the benefit of the applicable Lenders, and their respective successors and permitted assigns, notwithstanding that from time to time during the term of this Agreement there may be no Guaranteed Obligations outstanding.

Section 9.03 Reinstatement. The obligations of the Guarantors under Section 9.01 shall be automatically reinstated if and to the extent that for any reason any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Loan Party in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is rescinded or must be otherwise restored by any holder of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, whether as a result of any proceedings in bankruptcy or reorganization or otherwise.

Section 9.04 No Subrogation. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that until the Termination Date it shall subordinate any claim and shall not exercise any right or remedy, direct or indirect, arising by reason of any performance by it of its guarantee in Section 9.01, whether by subrogation, right of contribution or otherwise, against the Borrower or any other Guarantor of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or any security for any of the Guaranteed Obligations.

Section 9.05 Remedies. Each Guarantor jointly and severally agrees that, as between the Guarantors and the Lenders, the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the Notes, if any, may be declared to be forthwith due and payable as provided in Article X (and shall be deemed to have become automatically due and payable in the circumstances provided in Article X) for purposes of Section 9.01, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such declaration (or such obligations from becoming automatically due and payable) as against the Borrower or any Guarantor and that, in the event of such declaration (or such obligations being deemed to have become automatically due and payable, or the circumstances occurring where Article X provides that such obligations shall become due and payable), such obligations (whether or not due and payable by the Borrower) shall forthwith become due and payable by the Guarantors for purposes of Section 9.01.

Section 9.06 Continuing Guarantee. The Guarantee made by the Guarantors in Section 9.01 is a continuing guarantee of payment, and shall apply to all Guaranteed Obligations whenever arising.

Section 9.07 General Limitation on Guaranteed Obligations. In any action or proceeding involving any federal, state, provincial or territorial, corporate, limited partnership or limited liability company law, or any applicable state, federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under Section 9.01 would otherwise be held or determined to be void, voidable, invalid or unenforceable, or subordinated to the claims of any other creditors, on account of the amount of its liability under Section 9.01, then, notwithstanding any other provision to the contrary, the amount of such liability of such Guarantor shall, without any further action by such Guarantor, any Loan Party or any other Person, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount (after giving effect to the right of contribution established in Section 9.09) that is valid and enforceable and not subordinated to the claims of other creditors as determined in such action or proceeding.

The Guarantors confirm that it is the intention that this Guarantee not constitute a fraudulent transfer or conveyance for purposes of Debtor Relief Laws, the Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, the Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act or any similar federal, state or foreign law to the extent applicable to the obligations set forth herein.

Section 9.08 Release of Subsidiary Guarantors and Pledges.

(a)A Subsidiary Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder in the event that (i) all the Capital Stock of such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sold, transferred or

otherwise Disposed of to a Person other than Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in a transaction permitted by Section 8.03 or 8.04, (ii) so long as no Event of Default then exists or would result therefrom, upon the designation of a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Unrestricted Subsidiary in accordance with Section 7.11 or (iii) upon the designation of a Subsidiary Guarantor as an Immaterial Subsidiary. In addition, each Guarantor shall be automatically released from its obligations hereunder (including the Guaranteed Obligations) on the Termination Date. In connection with any such release of a Guarantor, the Collateral Agent shall promptly execute and deliver to such Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all UCC termination statements and other documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence such release.

(b)If (x) any voting Capital Stock issued by any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary described in clause (i) of the definition of “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary” is redeemed by such Excluded Foreign Subsidiary, (y) the Borrower provides written notice to the Administrative Agent that the Borrower has determined in accordance with clause (i) of the definition of “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary” that a Subsidiary has become an Excluded Foreign Subsidiary described in such clause (i), or (z) the Borrower provides written notice to the Administrative Agent that a Foreign Subsidiary or a FSHCO has ceased to be an Excluded Foreign Subsidiary described in clause (i) of the definition of “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary” and has become an Excluded Foreign Subsidiary described in clause (ii) or (iii) of the definition of “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary”, then such shares of the relevant issuer shall be automatically and without further action released from the security interests created by the Security Agreement so that the shares of voting Capital Stock of such Subsidiary subject to the security interests created by the Security Agreement shall not include more than 65% of the total outstanding voting Capital Stock of any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary described in clause (i) of the definition of “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary” or at any time include any shares of Capital Stock of any Excluded Foreign Subsidiary described in clause (ii) or clause (iii) of the definition of “Excluded Foreign Subsidiary” and any certificates representing such released Capital Stock shall be returned to the applicable grantor.

Section 9.09 Right of Contribution. At any time a payment in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations is made under this Guarantee, the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Guarantor against each other Subsidiary Guarantor shall be determined as provided in the immediately following sentence, with the right of contribution of each Subsidiary Guarantor to be revised and restated as of each date on which a payment is made on the Guaranteed Obligations under this Guarantee. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby agrees that to the extent that a Subsidiary Guarantor shall have made payments in respect of the Guaranteed Obligations that, in the aggregate, exceed such Subsidiary Guarantor’s Contribution Percentage (as defined below) of the aggregate payments made by all Subsidiary Guarantors (such excess, the “Aggregate Excess Amount”), each such Subsidiary Guarantor shall be entitled to seek and receive contribution from and against any other Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder which has not paid its Contribution Percentage of the aggregate payments made by all Subsidiary Guarantors (the “Aggregate Deficit Amount”) on the date of such payment, in an amount equal to (x) a fraction, the numerator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount paid by such Subsidiary Guarantor and the denominator of which is the Aggregate Excess Amount paid by all Subsidiary Guarantors, multiplied by (y) the Aggregate Deficit Amount. Each Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution shall be subject to the terms and conditions of Section 9.04. The provisions of this Section 9.09 shall in no respect limit the obligations and liabilities of any Subsidiary Guarantor to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, and each Subsidiary Guarantor shall remain liable to the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties for the full amount guaranteed by such Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder; provided, that no Subsidiary Guarantor may take any action to enforce such right until the Termination Date, it being expressly recognized and agreed by all parties hereto that any Subsidiary Guarantor’s right of contribution arising under this Section 9.09 against any other Subsidiary Guarantor shall be expressly

junior and subordinate to such other Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations and liabilities in respect of the Obligations and any other obligations owing under this Guarantee. As used in this Section 9.09: (i) each Subsidiary Guarantor’s “Contribution Percentage” shall mean the percentage obtained by dividing (x) Adjusted Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Guarantor by (y) the aggregate Adjusted Net Worth of all Subsidiary Guarantors; (ii) the “Adjusted Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall mean the greater of (x) the Net Worth (as defined below) of such Subsidiary Guarantor and (y) zero; and (iii) the “Net Worth” of each Subsidiary Guarantor shall mean the amount by which the fair saleable value of such Subsidiary Guarantor’s assets on the date of any payment by such Subsidiary Guarantor exceeds its existing debts and other liabilities (including contingent liabilities, but without giving effect to any Guaranteed Obligations arising under this Guarantee) on such date. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained above, any Subsidiary Guarantor that is released from this Guarantee pursuant to Section 9.08 hereof (or otherwise in connection with an exercise of remedies by, or at the direction of, the relevant Secured Parties) shall thereafter have no contribution obligations, or rights, pursuant to this Section 9.09, and at the time of any such release, if the released Subsidiary Guarantor had an Aggregate Excess Amount or an Aggregate Deficit Amount, same shall be deemed reduced to $0, and the contribution rights and obligations of the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors shall be recalculated on the respective date of releases (as otherwise provided above) based on the payments made hereunder by the remaining Subsidiary Guarantors.

Section 9.10 Keepwell. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guarantee in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 9.10 for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 9.10, or otherwise under this Guarantee, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Termination Date. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this Section 9.10 constitute, and this Section 9.10 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

Section 9.11 Independent Obligation. The obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are independent of the obligations of any other Guarantor, any other party or the Borrower, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against such Guarantor whether or not action is brought against any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower and whether or not any other guarantor, any other party or the Borrower be joined in any such action or actions. Each Guarantor waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by the Borrower or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to the Borrower shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to the Guarantors.

Section 10.03 Application of Proceeds.

(a)Subject to any Intercreditor Agreement then in effect, the Collateral Agent shall upon any exercise of remedies hereunder or under any Security Document apply the proceeds of any

collection or sale of Collateral, together with all other moneys, in each case received by the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, the Collateral Agent or Issuing Bank hereunder (or, to the extent any Security Document executed by a Loan Party requires proceeds of collateral thereunder to be applied in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement), including any Collateral consisting of cash, in the following order of priority:

(i)first, to all amounts owing to the Collateral Agent, the Revolving Agent or the Administrative Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents in its capacity as such in respect of (x) the preservation of Collateral or its security interest in the Collateral or (y) with respect to enforcing the rights of the Secured Parties under the Loan Documents;

(ii)second, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to preceding clause (i), to all other amounts owing to the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, Collateral Agent or Issuing Bank pursuant to any of the Loan Documents in its capacity as such;

(iii)third, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to preceding clauses (i) and (ii), an amount equal to the other outstanding Loans and Obligations, in each case then due and payable (in each case, other than, for the avoidance of doubt, contingent indemnification or reimbursement obligations to the extent no claim giving rise thereto has been asserted) shall be paid to the Secured Parties as provided in clause (d) below, with each secured party receiving an amount equal to its outstanding Obligations as described above or, if the proceeds are insufficient to pay in full all such Obligations, its pro rata share of the amount remaining to be distributed; and

(iv)fourth, to the extent proceeds remain after the application pursuant to preceding clauses (i) through (iii), inclusive, and following the payment in full in cash of all Obligations, to the relevant Loan Party, their successors and assigns, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(b)If any payment to any Secured Party pursuant to this Section 10.03 of its pro rata share of any distribution would result in overpayment to such Secured Party, such excess amount shall instead be distributed in respect of the unpaid Obligations of the other Secured Parties, with each Secured Party whose Obligations have not been paid in full to receive an amount equal to such excess amount multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the unpaid Obligations of such Secured Party and the denominator of which is the unpaid Obligations of all Secured Parties entitled to such distribution.

(c)Subject to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement, all payments required to be made hereunder shall be made (x) if to Secured Parties (other than Secured Parties in respect of payments of Obligations under Secured Swap Agreement or Secured Cash Management Obligations), to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Secured Parties, (y) if to Secured Parties in respect of payments of Obligations under Secured Swap Agreements, to the trustee, paying agent or other similar representative (each, a “Payee Representative”) for such Secured Parties or, in the absence of such a Payee Representative, directly to such Secured Parties and (z) if to the Secured Parties in respect of payments of Secured Cash Management Obligations, directly to such Secured Parties.

(d)For purposes of applying payments received in accordance with this Section 10.03, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon (i) the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Revolving Agent, (iii) the Issuing Bank, (iv) the Payee Representative or, in the absence of such a Payee Representative, upon the applicable Secured Parties in respect of payments of Obligations under Secured Swap Agreements and (v) the applicable Secured Parties in respect of payments of Secured Cash Management Obligations for a determination (which the Administrative Agent and each other Secured Party agrees (or shall agree) to provide upon request of the Collateral Agent) of the outstanding Obligations of the Loan Parties owed to the Secured Parties.

(e)Subject to the other limitations (if any) set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, it is understood that the Loan Parties shall remain liable (as and to the extent set forth in the Loan Documents) to the extent of any deficiency between the amount of the proceeds of the Collateral and the aggregate amount of the Obligations of the Loan Parties.

(f)It is understood and agreed by each Loan Party and each Secured Party that the Collateral Agent shall have no liability for any determinations made by it in this Section 10.03.

Section 10.04 Right to Cure.

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.01, in the event of any Default or Event of Default under the covenant set forth in Section 8.13, until the expiration of the fifteenth (15th) day after the date on which the financial statements are required to be delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or (b), as applicable, with respect to any Fiscal Quarter hereunder (the “Cure Period”), Holdings may issue equity (provided such equity issuance does not result in a Change of Control and constitutes common equity or Qualified Capital Stock) and contribute the Net Cash Proceeds received therefrom to the capital of the Borrower as cash common equity (a “Specified Equity Contribution”)) in order to remedy any Event of Default that has occurred with respect to Section 8.13 for such Fiscal Quarter. Upon such Specified Equity Contribution in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the amount of the proceeds thereof shall, solely for the purposes (and subject to the limitations) hereinafter described in this Section 10.04, increase Consolidated EBITDA with respect to such applicable Fiscal Quarter (and any subsequent period of four consecutive Fiscal Quarters that includes such Fiscal Quarter) and if, after giving effect to such increase in Consolidated EBITDA, Holdings shall then be in compliance with the requirements of Section 8.13, Holdings shall be deemed to have satisfied the requirements set forth therein as of the relevant four Fiscal Quarter period with the same effect as though there had been no failure to comply therewith at such date, and the applicable breach or default that had occurred shall be deemed cured for purposes of this Agreement; provided that such Net Cash Proceeds (i) are actually received by the Borrower (through a capital contribution of such proceeds by Holdings to the Borrower) no later than 15 days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered with respect to such Fiscal Quarter hereunder and (ii) do not exceed the aggregate amount necessary to cure (by addition to Consolidated EBITDA) such Event of Default under Section 8.13 for such period. The parties hereto acknowledge that a given Specified Equity Contribution may not be counted as having been made in more than one Fiscal Quarter. The parties hereby acknowledge that this Section 10.04(a) may not be relied on for purposes of calculating any financial ratios other than as applicable to Section 8.13 and shall not be included for purposes of determining pricing, fees or any financial ratio-based conditions (including, without limitation, compliance with any covenant or condition other than Section 8.13 itself which requires a determination of whether the financial covenant in Section 8.13 is satisfied, whether or not same would otherwise be applicable) or any baskets with respect to the covenants or conditions contained in this Agreement. There shall be no pro forma or other reduction in Indebtedness with the proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution (including by way of netting) for purposes of determining compliance with Section 8.13 in the Fiscal Quarter for which a Specified Equity Contribution is made; provided that such Specified Equity Contribution may reduce Indebtedness in a subsequent Fiscal Quarter.

(b)In each period of four consecutive Fiscal Quarters, there shall be at least two Fiscal Quarters in which no cure set forth in Section 10.04(a) is made. In addition, any reduction in Indebtedness (or increase in cash for netting purposes) with the proceeds of any Specified Equity Contribution made pursuant to this Section 10.04 shall be ignored for purposes of determining compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 8.13, except for determinations, including increases

in cash for netting purposes, made pursuant to Section 8.13 for Fiscal Quarters after the respective Fiscal Quarter for which such Event of Default is remediated by such Specified Equity Contribution.

(c)There shall be no more than five cures under Section 10.04(a) from the date hereof through the Latest Maturity Date.

(d)If notice has been delivered to the Administrative Agent of a Specified Equity Contribution (such notice to be delivered on or prior to the date on which the applicable financial statements are required to be delivered and containing reasonable detail on the terms and conditions of the Specified Equity Contribution), then from the last day of the Fiscal Quarter related to such cure notice until the required date for receipt of the Specified Equity Contribution, no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred under the Loan Documents with respect to any default under Section 8.13 for which such cure notice was delivered unless the 15 day period set forth in clause (a) above has expired without the Specified Equity Contribution having been received. None of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender shall exercise any of the remedial rights otherwise available to it upon an Event of Default, including the right to accelerate the Loans or to foreclose on the Collateral solely on the basis of an Event of Default having occurred as a result of a violation of Section 8.13, unless the Specified Equity Contribution is not made on or before the expiration of the Cure Period.

Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the Required Lenders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or the Security Documents, and the exercise by the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the Lenders. The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time prior to an Event of Default, to take any action with respect to any Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted pursuant to the Security Documents and in the case of any Intercreditor Agreement to take all actions (and execute all documents) required or deemed advisable by it in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b)Any Lien granted to or held by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral shall be automatically released (i) upon the occurrence of the Termination Date, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than Holdings and its Subsidiaries) upon the sale or other disposition thereof in compliance with Section 8.04, (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or all of the Lenders hereunder, to the extent required by Section 12.12), (iv) if the property subject to such Lien is owned by a Subsidiary Guarantor, upon release of such Subsidiary Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee in accordance with the terms therein or (v) as otherwise may be expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents.

(c)The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the Lenders or to any other Person to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Loan Party or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent herein or pursuant hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 11.10 or in any of the Security Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non‑appealable decision).

Section 11.11 Delivery of Information.

Section 11.13 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 Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(c)to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 3.01(a) or Section 12.01. To the extent that the payment of any such compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent, its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under this Agreement out of the estate in any such proceeding, shall be denied for any reason, payment of the same shall be secured by a Lien on, and shall be paid out of, any and all distributions, dividends, money, securities and other properties that the Lenders may be entitled to receive in such proceeding whether in liquidation or under any plan of reorganization or arrangement or otherwise.

(E)

This Section 12.04(a) shall not prohibit any Lender from assigning all or any portion of its rights and obligations among separate Term Facilities on a non‑pro rata basis.

(ii)Assignments to Permitted Auction Purchasers. Each Lender acknowledges that each Permitted Auction Purchaser is an Eligible Assignee hereunder and may purchase or acquire Term Loans hereunder from Lenders from time to time, (a) pursuant to Dutch Auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Section 12.04) or (b) notwithstanding Article II, Section 10.03 or 12.06 or any other provision of this Agreement, open market purchases on a non pro-rata basis (“Open Market Purchase”), in each case subject to the restrictions set forth in the definition of “Eligible Assignee” and, in the case of Dutch Auctions, subject to the restrictions set forth in the definition of “Dutch Auction,” in each case, and subject to the following further limitations:

(A)no Permitted Auction Purchaser shall be required to make a representation that, as of the date of any assignment, it is not in possession of information that has not been disclosed to the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager and Lenders and that may be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in such assignment or purchase; and each Lender participating in any assignment to Permitted Auction Purchasers acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Permitted Auction Purchasers then may have, and later may come into possession of material non-public information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Permitted Auction Purchasers or any of their Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent, Auction Manager or any of their respective Related Parties, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the material non-public information, (3) none of the Permitted Auction Purchasers or any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of material non-public information, (4) none of the Permitted Auction Purchasers or any of their Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Permitted Auction Purchasers or any of their Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Related Parties, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the material non-public information and (5) that the material non-public information may not be available to the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or the other Lenders;

(B)each Permitted Auction Purchaser agrees that, notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, with respect to any Auction Purchase or Open Market Purchase, (1) under no circumstances, whether or not any Loan Party is subject to a bankruptcy or other insolvency proceeding, shall such Permitted Auction Purchaser be permitted to exercise any voting rights or other privileges with respect to any Term Loans and any Term Loans that are assigned to such Permitted Auction Purchaser shall have no voting rights or other privileges under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall not be taken into account in determining any required vote or consent and (2) such Permitted

Auction Purchaser shall not receive information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any Lender and shall not be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by Lenders, the Auction Manager and the Administrative Agent and their advisors; rather all Term Loans held by any Permitted Auction Purchaser shall be automatically Cancelled immediately upon the purchase or acquisition thereof in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Section 12.04);

(C)at the time any Permitted Auction Purchaser is making purchases of Term Loans pursuant to a Dutch Auction or an Open Market Purchase it shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption;

(D)immediately upon the effectiveness of each Auction Purchase or such Open Market Purchase, a Cancellation (it being understood that such Cancellation shall not, except in the manner set forth in Section 4.02(c), constitute a mandatory or a voluntary repayment of Term Loans for purposes of this Agreement) shall be automatically irrevocably effected with respect to all of the Term Loans and related Obligations subject to such Auction Purchase or such Open Market Purchase for no consideration, with the effect that such Term Loans and related Obligations shall for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents no longer be outstanding, and the Borrower and the Guarantors shall no longer have any Obligations relating thereto, it being understood that such forgiveness and cancellation shall result in the Borrower and the Guarantors being irrevocably and unconditionally released from all claims and liabilities relating to such Obligations which have been so cancelled and forgiven, and the Collateral shall cease to secure any such Obligations which have been so cancelled and forgiven; and

(E)at the time of such Purchase Notice and Auction Purchase or open market purchase, in either case, by any Permitted Auction Purchaser, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom.

(F)no assignment of Term Loans under this Section 12.02(a)(iii) may be purchased with the proceeds of any Revolving Loan.

If any Purchaser commences any Dutch Auction (and all relevant requirements set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the commencement of such Dutch Auction have in fact been satisfied), and if at such time of commencement, the Purchaser reasonably believes that all required conditions set forth above which are required to be satisfied at the time of the purchase of Loans pursuant to such Dutch Auction shall be satisfied, then such Purchaser and the Loan Parties shall have no liability to any Lender for any termination of the respective Dutch Auction as a result of the failure to satisfy one or more of the conditions set forth above which are required to be met at the time which otherwise would have been the time of the purchase of Loans pursuant to the respective Dutch Auction, and any such failure shall not result in any Event of Default hereunder. With respect to all purchases of Loans pursuant to this Section 12.04, such purchases (and the payments made by the Purchaser and the Cancellation of the purchased Loans, in each case, in connection therewith) shall not be subject to any provision hereunder that provides for the pro rata nature of payments to Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 12.04(a)(iii) shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.06 to the contrary, and the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager and the Lenders hereby consent to such Dutch Auctions, Open Market Purchases and the other transactions contemplated by this Section 12.04 (provided that no Lender shall have an obligation to participate in any such Dutch Auction or Open Market Purchase) and hereby (x) waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (including, without limitation, any provision that provides for the pro rata nature of payments to Lenders) that may otherwise prohibit any Dutch Auction, Open Market Purchase or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 12.04 and (y) agrees that purchases of the

Loans by any Purchaser contemplated under this Section 12.04 shall not constitute Investments by the Loan Parties or their Subsidiaries.

Any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations with respect to Term Loans to an Affiliated Lender (including Affiliated Investment Funds) through (x) Dutch Auctions open to all Lenders on a pro rata basis or (y) open market purchases, in each case in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including Section 12.04), subject, to the extent applicable, to the restrictions set forth in the definitions of “Eligible Assignee” and “Dutch Auction,” in each case, and subject to the following further limitations:

(A)no Affiliated Lender shall be required to make a representation that, as of the date of any assignment, it is not in possession of information that has not been disclosed to the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager and Lenders and that may be material to a Lender’s decision to participate in such assignment or purchase; and each Lender participating in any assignment to Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1) the Affiliated Lenders then may have, and later may come into possession of material non-public information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Related Parties, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the material non-public information, (3) none of the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries or Holdings, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of material non-public information, (4) none of the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, Holdings, the Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Affiliated Lenders or any of their Subsidiaries, Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any of their respective Related Parties, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the material non-public information and (5) that the material non-public information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders;

(B)with respect to Restricted Affiliated Lenders only, notwithstanding anything in Section 12.12 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the requisite Lenders have (1) consented to any amendment, waiver or modification of any Loan Document (including such modifications pursuant to Section 12.12), (2) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (3) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, except in the case of any Restricted Affiliated Lender Amendment, the aggregate amount of Term Loans owed to the Restricted Affiliated Lenders or Term Loan Commitments of the Restricted Affiliated Lenders shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating Required Lenders; provided, however, if the Lenders (other than the Restricted Affiliated Lenders) shall have consented to such amendment, waiver or modification or otherwise approved such action, then the Restricted Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have affirmatively consented to such amendment, waiver, modification or

other action; provided further, any amendment, waiver or modification of any Loan Document that (v) reduces the principal amount of any Term Loans or the interest rate. fees or premium, if any, applicable thereto or otherwise reduces the Obligations, (w) increases the Term Loan Commitments of each Lender, (x) extends the dates on which any interest or principal payment would otherwise be due to a Lender, (y) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to the first proviso of Section 12.12(a) or (z) results in an adverse effect to a Restricted Affiliated Lender as compared to other Lenders (each of the foregoing clauses (x), (y) and (z) being a “Restricted Affiliated Lender Amendment”), in each case shall require the affirmative consent of each Restricted Affiliated Lender affected thereby;

(C)Restricted Affiliated Lenders shall not be entitled to receive (i) information provided solely to Lenders by the Administrative Agent, the Auction Manager or any Lender and shall not be permitted to attend or participate in meetings attended solely by Lenders, the Auction Manager and the Administrative Agent and their advisors, other than the right to receive Notices of Borrowings, notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Term Loans or Term Loan Commitments required to be delivered to Lenders pursuant to Article II and (ii) advice of counsel to the Lenders, the Auction Manager or the Administrative Agent or challenge the attorney-client privilege afforded to such Persons; provided that Affiliated Investment Funds shall not be subject to such limitation;

(F)the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans which may be purchased through Dutch Auctions or assigned through open market purchases shall not exceed (as calculated at the time of the consummation of any aforementioned Purchases or assignments) in the case of Restricted Affiliated Lenders and together with all other Restricted Affiliated Lenders, 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding and Term Loan Commitments;

(G)notwithstanding any other provision herein to the contrary, in the event that a Loan Party is the subject of a proceeding of the type described in Section 10.01(f) (such proceeding, a “Loan Party Insolvency”), each Restricted Affiliated Lender shall grant to the Administrative Agent a power of attorney, giving the Administrative Agent the right to vote each Restricted Affiliated Lender’s claims on all matters submitted to the Lenders for consent in respect of such Loan Party Insolvency, and the Administrative Agent shall approve such claims in the same proportion as the majority of Lenders (other than Restricted Affiliated Lenders) that voted on each matter submitted to such Lenders for approval; provided that (1) the foregoing shall not permit the Administrative Agent to consent to, or refrain from, giving approval in respect of a plan of reorganization pursuant to Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code of the Loan Party that is the subject of the Loan Party Insolvency (such plan of reorganization being a “Loan Party Plan of Reorganization”), if any Restricted Affiliated Lender would, as

a consequence thereof, receive treatment under such Loan Party Plan of Reorganization that, on a ratable basis, would be inferior to that of the Lenders (other than such Restricted Affiliated Lenders) holding the same Tranche of Term Loans as the affected Restricted Affiliated Lender (such Lenders being, “Non‑Restricted Persons”) and any such Loan Party Plan of Reorganization shall require the consent of such Restricted Affiliated Lender and (2) to the extent any Non‑Restricted Person would receive superior treatment as part of any Loan Party Plan of Reorganization, as compared to any Restricted Affiliated Lender, pursuant to any investment made, or other action taken, by such Non‑Restricted Person in accordance with such Loan Party Plan of Reorganization (but excluding the Term Facility), then such Restricted Affiliated Lender’s consent shall not be required, so long as such Restricted Affiliated Lender was afforded the opportunity to ratably participate in such investment or to take such action pursuant to the Loan Party Plan of Reorganization;

(H)no assignment of Term Loans to an Affiliated Lender may be purchased with the proceeds of any Revolving Loan; and

(I)none of the Borrower, Holdings, any Subsidiaries of Holdings or any Affiliated Lender shall be required to make any representation that it is not in possession of material non-public information with respect to Holdings, Subsidiaries of Holdings or any of their respective Affiliates.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 12.04(a)(iv) shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.06 to the contrary.

(iv)Novation. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 12.04(a)(vi) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto 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 Section 2.11, 2.12, 4.04 and 12.01).

(v)Acceptance and Register. Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee, the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), together with (x) any processing and recordation fee and (y) any written consents to such assignment required by this Section 12.04, (I) with respect to Term Loans and Term Loan Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Term Loan Register and (II) with respect to Revolving Loans and Revolving Commitments, the Revolving Agent shall promptly accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the RCF Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Term Loan Register or RCF Register, as applicable, as provided in this paragraph.

(a)Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the Revolving Agent, sell participations in respect of Loans to one or more banks or other entities (other than Holdings, Subsidiaries of Holdings, Affiliates of Holdings, a natural person, a Disqualified Lender or a Defaulting Lender (provided that the list of Disqualified Lenders shall have been made

available to the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Agent and shall be made available to any Lender if requested in writing to the Administrative Agent or the Revolving Agent, as applicable (it being understood and agreed that neither the Administrative Agent nor the Revolving Agent, as applicable, shall have no responsibility for monitoring, nor any liability for maintaining or updating, the list of Disqualified Lenders)) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations with respect thereto; provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement 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 may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to the first proviso of Section 12.12(a)(x) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as the non‑fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the commitment of, and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of, each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103‑1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary.

The Borrower agrees that (x) each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.11 and 2.12 (subject to the requirements of those sections) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(a) and (y) each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 4.04 (provided that such Participant shall be subject to the definition of Excluded Taxes and the requirements and limitations of Section 4.04, including the requirements under Sections 4.04(b), (c), and (d), as if it were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.04(b) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(a); provided, in each case, that such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.13 and 2.14 as if it were a Lender that had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 12.04(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Participant shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.11 or 4.04 than the applicable participating Lender would have been entitled to receive in respect of the amount of the participation transferred by such participating Lender to such Participant had no such participation occurred, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Tax Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.14 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.20.

(b)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement, provided such pledge or assignment is not in violation of any Requirement of Law (but not to the Sponsor, the Borrower or any of Holdings’ or the Sponsor’s or the Borrower’s Affiliates), to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section 12.04 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto or provide the respective pledgee or assignee any voting rights with respect to the pledged or assigned obligations.

(c)The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring Notes to facilitate transactions of the type described in this Section 12.04.

(d)Each Lender, upon succeeding to an interest in Commitments or Loans, as the case may be, represents and warrants as of the effective date of the applicable Assignment and Assumption that it is an Eligible Assignee.

Section 12.05 No Waiver; Remedies Cumulative. No failure or delay on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document and no course of dealing between the Borrower or any other Loan Party and the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege hereunder or under any other Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege hereunder or thereunder. The rights, powers and remedies herein or in any other Loan Document expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, powers or remedies which the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender would otherwise have. No notice to or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances or constitute a waiver of the rights of the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.

Section 12.06 Payments Pro Rata.

(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Agent agrees that promptly after its receipt of each payment from or on behalf of the Borrower in respect of any Obligations hereunder, the Administrative Agent (or, with respect to the Revolving Facility, the Revolving Agent) shall distribute such payment to the Lenders entitled thereto (other than any Lender that has consented in writing to waive its pro rata share of any such payment) pro rata (or in accordance with the Security Documents, as applicable) based upon their respective shares, if any, of the Obligations with respect to which such payment was received.

(b)Each of the Lenders agrees that, if it should receive any amount hereunder (whether by voluntary payment, by realization upon security, by the exercise of the right of setoff or banker’s lien, by counterclaim or cross action, by the enforcement of any right under the Loan Documents, or otherwise), which is applicable to the payment of the principal of, or interest on, the Loans or Fees, of a sum which with respect to the related sum or sums received by other Lenders is in a greater proportion than the total of such Obligation then owed and due to such Lender bears to the total of such Obligation then owed and due to all of the Lenders immediately prior to such receipt, then such Lender receiving such excess payment shall purchase for cash without recourse or warranty from the other Lenders an interest in the Obligations of the respective Loan Party to such Lenders in such

amount as shall result in a proportional participation by all the Lenders in such amount; provided that if all or any portion of such excess amount is thereafter recovered from such Lenders, such purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of the preceding Section 12.06(a) and (b) shall be subject to the provisions of this Agreement which (i) require, or permit, differing payments to be made to Non‑Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders and (ii) permit disproportionate payments with respect to the Loans as, and to the extent, provided otherwise herein.

Section 12.07 Calculations; Computations.

(a)All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein.

(b)If at any time any change in GAAP or in the application of GAAP would affect the computation of Excess Cash Flow or any financial ratio or financial term or definition set forth in any Loan Document and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders) such ratio or covenant to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in (or in the application of) GAAP; provided that, until so amended, (i) Excess Cash Flow and such ratio shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of Excess Cash Flow or such ratio or financial covenant made before and after giving effect to such change in (or in the application of) GAAP as is reasonably necessary to demonstrate the calculation of Excess Cash Flow and compliance (or non‑compliance) with such ratio.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) other than with respect to the delivery of financial statements pursuant to Sections 7.01(a) and (b), (x) the consolidation of the accounts of Holdings and its Restricted Subsidiaries shall not include the consolidation of the accounts of any Unrestricted Subsidiary and (y) all financial calculations, definitions and computations shall made without the inclusion of any Unrestricted Subsidiary, for such purposes deeming any Unrestricted Subsidiary as not existing at the time any determination is made with respect to such financial calculation, definition or computation, (ii) all financial statements shall be prepared, and the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio and Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated, in each case, without giving effect to any election under FASB ASC 825 (or any similar accounting principle) permitting a Person to value its financial liabilities at the fair value thereof or the application of FAS 133, FAS 150 or FAS 123r (to the extent that the pronouncements in FAS 123r result in recording an equity award as a liability on the consolidated balance sheet of Holdings and its Subsidiaries in the circumstance where, but for the application of the pronouncements, such award would have been classified as equity) and (iii) with respect to any period during which the Transactions or any Specified Transaction occurs, the calculation of the Total Net Leverage Ratio, First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Net Income (other than with respect to Excess Cash Flow) and Consolidated Total Assets or for any other purpose hereunder, with respect to such period shall be made on a Pro Forma Basis. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding any changes in GAAP after the Closing Date that would require lease obligations that would be treated as operating leases as of the Closing Date to be classified and accounted for as Capital Lease Obligations or otherwise reflected on the consolidated balance sheet of Holdings and its Subsidiaries, such

obligations shall continue to be excluded from the definition of Indebtedness and Capital Lease Obligations.

(d)All computations of interest and other Fees hereunder shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days (except for interest calculated by reference to the Prime Lending Rate, which shall be based on a year of 365 or 366 days, as applicable) for the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest or Fees are payable.

(f)Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may amend any Intercreditor Agreement (or enter into a replacement thereof), additional Security Documents and/or replacement Security Documents (including a collateral trust agreement) in connection with the Incurrence of (a) any Indebtedness permitted under Section 8.01 to provide that a Representative acting on behalf of the holders of such Indebtedness shall become a party thereto and shall have rights to share in the Collateral on a pari passu basis (but without regard to the control of remedies) with the Obligations, (b) any Indebtedness permitted under Section 8.01 to provide that a Representative acting on behalf of the holders of such Indebtedness shall become a party thereto and shall have rights to share in the Collateral on a junior lien, subordinated basis to the Obligations and the obligations in respect of any Indebtedness described in clause (a) above and (c) the replacement and/or resignation of the Collateral Agent or other representative (including any amendments to the indemnity or other ministerial provisions of the applicable agreement) under the applicable agreement with the consent of the Borrower.

Section 12.14 Domicile of Loans. Each Lender may transfer and carry its Loans at, to or for the account of any office, Subsidiary or Affiliate of such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, to the extent that a transfer of Loans pursuant to this Section 12.14 would, at the time of such transfer, result in increased costs under Section 2.11, 2.12 or 4.04 from those being charged by the respective Lender prior to such transfer, then the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such increased costs (although the Borrower shall be obligated to pay any other increased costs of the type described above resulting from changes in any applicable law, treaty, government rule, regulation, guideline or order, or in the official interpretation thereof, after the date of the respective transfer).

Section 12.15 Register.

(a)The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent to serve as its non‑fiduciary agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.15(a), to maintain a register (the “Term Loan Register”) on which it will record from time to time the name and address of each Term Lender, the Term Loan Commitments, the principal amounts of the Term Loans and any other obligations under the Loan Documents, and the amounts of stated interest due thereon, owing to each Term Lender pursuant the terms hereof and any Term Note. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Term Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents. With respect to any Term Lender, the transfer of the Term Loan Commitments of such Term Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Term Loans and any other obligations under the Loan Documents owing to such Lender shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the Term Loan Register maintained by the Administrative Agent and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Term Loan Commitments, Term Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents shall be recorded by the Administrative Agent on the Term Loan Register upon and only upon the acceptance by the Administrative Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption pursuant to Section 12.04. Upon such acceptance and recordation, the assignee specified therein shall be treated as a Term Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. Coincident with the delivery of such an

Assignment and Assumption to the Administrative Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Term Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Term Lender shall surrender the Term Note (if any) evidencing such Term Loan, and thereupon one or more new Term Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assignee or transferee Term Lender at the request of any such Term Lender. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Administrative Agent in performing its duties under this Section 12.15(a) to the same extent that the Administrative Agent is otherwise indemnified pursuant to Section 12.01. The Term Loan Register is intended to cause each Term Loan and other obligation hereunder to be in registered form within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. The Term Loan Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Term Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice, provided that the information contained in the Term Loan Register which is shared with each Term Lender (other than the Administrative Agent and its affiliates) shall be limited to the entries with respect to such Term Lender including the Term Loan Commitment of, or principal amount of and stated interest on the Term Loans owing to such Term Lender.

(b)The Borrower hereby designates the Revolving Agent to serve as its non‑fiduciary agent, solely for purposes of this Section 12.15(b), to maintain a register (the “RCF Register”) on which it will record from time to time the name and address of each Revolving Lender, the Revolving Commitments, the principal amounts of the Revolving Loans and any other obligations under the Loan Documents, and the amounts of stated interest due thereon, owing to each Revolving Lender pursuant the terms hereof and any Revolving Note. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation, shall not affect the Borrower’s obligations in respect of such Revolving Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents. With respect to any Revolving Lender, the transfer of the Revolving Commitments of such Revolving Lender and the rights to the principal of, and interest on, any Revolving Loans and any other obligations under the Loan Documents owing to such Revolving Lender shall not be effective until such transfer is recorded on the RCF Register maintained by the Revolving Agent and prior to such recordation all amounts owing to the transferor with respect to such Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain owing to the transferor. The registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of any Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents shall be recorded by the Revolving Agent on the RCF Register upon and only upon the acceptance by the Revolving Agent of a properly executed and delivered Assignment and Assumption pursuant to Section 12.04. Upon such acceptance and recordation, the assignee specified therein shall be treated as a Revolving Lender for all purposes of this Agreement. Coincident with the delivery of such an Assignment and Assumption to the Revolving Agent for acceptance and registration of assignment or transfer of all or part of a Revolving Loan, or as soon thereafter as practicable, the assigning or transferor Revolving Lender shall surrender the Revolving Note (if any) evidencing such Revolving Loan, and thereupon one or more new Revolving Notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the assignee or transferee Revolving Lender at the request of any such Revolving Lender. The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Revolving Agent from and against any and all losses, claims, damages and liabilities of whatsoever nature which may be imposed on, asserted against or incurred by the Revolving Agent in performing its duties under this Section 12.15(b) to the same extent that the Revolving Agent is otherwise indemnified pursuant to Section 12.01. The RCF Register is intended to cause each Revolving Loan and other obligation hereunder to be in registered form within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations and within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code. The RCF Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Revolving Lender, at any reasonable time

and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice, provided that the information contained in the RCF Register which is shared with each Revolving Lender (other than the Revolving Agent and its affiliates) shall be limited to the entries with respect to such Revolving Lender including the Revolving Commitment of, or principal amount of and stated interest on the Revolving Loans owing to such Revolving Lender.

Section 12.16 Confidentiality.

(a)Subject to the provisions of clause (b) of this Section 12.16, each Lender agrees that it will use its reasonable efforts not to disclose without the prior consent of Holdings (other than to its employees, auditors, advisors, agents, representatives or counsel or to another Lender if such Lender or such Lender’s holding or parent company in its sole discretion determines that any such party should have access to such information, provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.16 to the same extent as such Lender) any information with respect to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries which is now or in the future furnished pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, provided that any Lender may disclose any such information (i) (x) as has become generally available to the public other than by virtue of a breach of this Section 12.16 by the respective Lender or (y) that is received by such Lender from a third party that is not known by such Lender to be subject to confidentiality obligations to Holdings, the Borrower, the Sponsor, or the Acquired Business or its affiliates, (ii) upon the request or demand of any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over such Lender or any of their affiliates (in which case, the Lenders agree, to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable law, to inform you promptly thereof prior to disclosure (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any governmental bank regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority or in cases where any governmental and/or regulatory authority had requested otherwise)), (iii) as may be required or appropriate in respect to any summons or subpoena or in connection with any litigation, (iv) in order to comply with any law, order, regulation or ruling applicable to such Lender, (v) to the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent or the Collateral Agent, (vi) to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty in any swap, hedge or similar agreement (or to any such contractual counterparty’s professional advisor), so long as such contractual counterparty (or such professional advisor) agrees to be bound by the provisions of this Section 12.16 (which agreement may be by way of “click through” action on the part of the recipient to access such information), (vii) to any prospective or actual transferee or Participant in connection with any contemplated transfer or participation of any of the Notes or Commitments or any interest therein by such Lender, provided that such prospective transferee agrees to be bound by the confidentiality provisions contained in this Section 12.16, (viii) on a confidential basis to any rating agency in connection with any rating of the Loan Parties or the Term Facility or Revolving Facility, as applicable, (ix) on a confidential basis to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the Loans and (x) in connection with the exercise of remedies under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to the enforcement of rights under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(b)Each of Holdings and the Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that each Lender may share with any of its affiliates, and such affiliates may share with such Lender, any information related to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation, any non‑public customer information regarding the creditworthiness of Holdings and its Subsidiaries), provided such Persons shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 12.16 to the same extent as such Lender.

Section 12.17 Patriot Act. Each Lender subject to the Patriot Act hereby notifies Holdings and the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record

information that identifies Holdings, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties and other information that will allow such Lender to identify Holdings, the Borrower and the other Loan Parties in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 12.18 Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non‑usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent, the Revolving 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 Borrower. In determining whether the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent, the Revolving Agent or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, (a) characterize any payment that is not principal as an expense, fee, or premium rather than interest, (b) exclude voluntary prepayments and the effects thereof, and (c) amortize, prorate, allocate, and spread in equal or unequal parts the total amount of interest throughout the contemplated term of the Obligations hereunder.

Section 12.19 Secured Swap Agreements and Secured Cash Management Agreements. At any time prior to or within 30 days after any Loan Party enters into any Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement, if the applicable Loan Party and counterparty desire that the monetary obligations in respect of such Swap Agreement or the Cash Management Obligations in respect of such Cash Management Agreement be treated as an “Obligation” hereunder with rights in respect of payment of proceeds of the Collateral in accordance with the waterfall provisions set forth in the applicable Security Documents, the Borrower and the counterparty to such Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement, as the case may be, may notify the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in writing (to be acknowledged by the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent (provided that the failure to provide such acknowledgement shall not affect the treatment of such Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement as a “Secured Swap Agreement” or “Secured Cash Management Agreement”, as applicable)) that (x) such Swap Agreement is to be a “Secured Swap Agreement” (a “Secured Swap Agreement”) or (y) such Cash Management Agreement is to be a “Secured Cash Management Agreement” (a “Secured Cash Management Agreement”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i)in the case of a Swap Agreement, such Swap Agreement is entered into with a Qualified Counterparty; and

(ii)in the case of Cash Management Agreements, such Cash Management Agreement is with a counterparty that is the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or a Lender or an Affiliate of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers or a Lender.

Until such time as the Borrower and the counterparty to such Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement, as the case may be, deliver (and each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent acknowledges (provided that the failure to provide such acknowledgement shall not affect the treatment of such Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement as a “Secured Swap Agreement” or “Secured Cash Management Agreement”, as applicable)) such notice as described above, such Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement shall not constitute a Secured Swap Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement, as the case may be. The parties hereto understand and agree that the provisions of this Section 12.19 are made for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, each Lender and their respective Affiliates, which become parties to Secured Swap Agreements or Secured Cash Management Agreements, as applicable, and agree that any amendments or modifications to the provisions of this Section 12.19 shall not be effective with respect to any Secured Swap Agreement or Secured Cash Management Agreement, as the case may be, entered into prior to the date of the respective amendment or modification

of this Section 12.19 (without the written consent of the relevant parties thereto). None of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent accepts responsibility and none of them shall have liability for the calculation of the exposure owing by the Loan Parties under any such Secured Swap Agreement and/or Secured Cash Management Agreement, and each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled in all cases to rely on the applicable notice provided by Borrower and the applicable counterparty to such Swap Agreement or Cash Management Agreement as set forth above. No Secured Party that obtains the benefits of the Guarantee or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender or the Administrative Agent and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents.

Section 12.20 Lender Action. Each Lender agrees that it shall not take or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy against any Loan Party or any other obligor under any of the Loan Documents (including the exercise of any right of setoff, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self‑help), or institute any actions or proceedings, or otherwise commence any remedial procedures, with respect to any Collateral or any other property of any such Loan Party, unless expressly provided for herein or in any other Loan Document, without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. The provisions of this Section 12.20 are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

WHEREAS, the Joining Party is a direct or indirect Subsidiary of Holdings and desires, or is required pursuant to Section 7.08 of the Credit Agreement, to become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement; and

The Joining Party agrees that, upon its execution hereof, it will become a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement with respect to all Guaranteed Obligations, and will be bound by all terms, conditions and duties applicable to a Subsidiary Guarantor under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, and in furtherance thereof, the Joining Party, unconditionally, absolutely and irrevocably jointly and severally guarantees, as a primary obligor and not as a surety, to each Secured Party and their respective successors and permitted assigns, consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which a Subsidiary Guarantor is or becomes a party, the prompt payment in full when due and payable (whether at stated maturity, by required prepayment, declaration, demand, by acceleration or otherwise) of all Guaranteed Obligations (on the same basis as the other Subsidiary Guarantors under the Credit Agreement).

5. From and after the execution and delivery hereof by the parties hereto, this Joinder shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section1Supplements; Further Assurances

. Each Grantor shall take such further actions, and execute and deliver to the Collateral Agent such additional assignments, agreements, supplements, powers and instruments, as the Collateral Agent may in its reasonable judgment deem necessary or appropriate, wherever required by applicable Requirements of Law, in order to perfect, preserve and protect the security interest in the Collateral as provided herein and the rights and interests granted to the Collateral Agent hereunder, to carry into effect the purposes hereof or better to assure and confirm unto the Collateral Agent or permit the Collateral Agent to exercise and enforce its rights, powers and remedies hereunder with respect to any Collateral; provided, however, that this Section 3.5 is subject to Liens permitted under Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement and any Excluded Property. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Grantor shall make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file or refile and/or deliver to the Collateral Agent from time to time upon reasonable request such lists, descriptions and designations of the Collateral, financing statements, conveyances, endorsements, powers of attorney, documents of title, confirmations, additional security agreements and other assurances or instruments necessary or prudent to perfect or protect the Collateral Agent’s security interest in the Collateral. If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Collateral Agent may institute and maintain, in its own name or in the name of any Grantor, such suits and proceedings as the Collateral Agent may be advised by counsel shall be necessary or expedient to prevent any impairment of its security interest in the Collateral or the perfection or priority thereof. All of the foregoing shall be at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors.

Securities Collateral of such Subsidiary. The rights and obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall remain in full force and effect notwithstanding the addition of any new Grantor as a party to this Security Agreement.

Section 3.6 Perfection or Other Action Cost vs. Benefit Determination. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, although such property and assets shall still be considered Collateral, the Grantors shall not be required to perfect the security interest granted to the Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement or any other Loan Document or to take any other action with respect to any property, asset or right to use any property or any asset to the extent the burden or cost of obtaining or perfecting a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent or taking any other action is excessive in relation to the benefit of the security afforded thereby, as reasonably determined by the Collateral Agent. Any property, asset or right to use any property or any asset that is subject to the conditions set forth in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 3.7 shall be an exception or carve-out to any representation, warranty or covenant in any Loan Document relating to the perfection or priority of the Collateral Agent’s Liens on the Collateral or other actions to be taken, in each case, to the extent set forth in the immediately preceding sentence. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, (i) in no event shall any Grantor be required to obtain control agreements with respect to deposit or securities accounts or landlord or bailee waivers and (ii) no actions in any non-U.S. jurisdiction shall be required in order to create any security interests in assets located or titled outside of the U.S. or to perfect any security interest therein (it being understood that there shall be no security agreements or pledge agreements governed under the laws of any non-U.S. jurisdiction).

Each Grantor shall, at its own cost and expense, defend title to the Collateral pledged by it hereunder and the security interest therein and Lien thereon granted to the Collateral Agent and the priority thereof against all claims and demands of all Persons, at its own cost and expense, at any time claiming any interest therein adverse to the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party other than Liens permitted under Section 8.02 of the Credit Agreement.

(b)The Collateral Agent may rely on opinions of counsel as to whether any or all UCC financing statements of the Grantors need to be amended as a result of a change in any of the information described in Section 4.2(a). The Collateral Agent shall have no duty to inquire about such changes if any Grantor does not inform the Collateral Agent of such changes, the parties acknowledging and agreeing that it would not be feasible or practical for the Collateral Agent to search for information on such changes if such information is not provided by any Grantor.

Section 4.3 Location of Inventory. As of the Closing Date, all Inventory (as defined in Article 9 of the UCC) of such Grantor (other than Inventory in-transit) in excess of $2,500,000 is located at the chief executive office or such other location listed in Section 2 of the Perfection Certificate.

Following the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, if the Collateral Agent desires to exercise any remedies, voting or consensual rights or attorney-in-fact powers set forth in this Security Agreement and determines it necessary to obtain any approvals or consents of any Governmental Authority or any other Person therefor, then, upon the reasonable written request of the Collateral Agent, such Grantor agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to assist and aid the Collateral Agent to obtain as soon as commercially practicable any necessary approvals or consents for the exercise of any such remedies, rights and powers.

Section 4.6 Insurance. Each Grantor hereby irrevocably makes, constitutes and appoints the Collateral Agent (and all officers, employees or agents designated by the Collateral Agent) as such Grantor’s true and lawful agent (and attorney-in-fact), exercisable only after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, for the purpose of making, settling and adjusting claims in respect of the Collateral under policies of insurance, endorsing the name of such Grantor on any check, draft, instrument or other item of payment for the proceeds of such policies of insurance and for making all determinations and decisions with respect thereto. In the event that any Grantor at any time or times shall fail to obtain or maintain any of the policies of insurance required under the Credit Agreement or to pay any premium in whole or in part relating thereto, the Collateral Agent may, upon five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice and without waiving or releasing any obligation or liability of the Grantors hereunder or any Default or Event of Default, in its sole discretion, obtain and maintain such policies of insurance and pay such premium and take any other actions with respect thereto as the Collateral Agent deems advisable. All sums

disbursed by the Collateral Agent in connection with this Section 4.6, including reasonable and documented attorneys’ fees, court costs, and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses and other charges relating thereto, shall be payable, upon demand, by the Grantors to the Collateral Agent and shall be additional Secured Obligations secured hereby.

c.Sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, or direct any Grantor to sell, assign, grant a license to use or otherwise liquidate, any and all investments made in whole or in part with the Collateral or any part thereof, and take possession of the proceeds of any such sale, assignment, license or liquidation;

d.Take possession of the Collateral or any part thereof, by directing any Grantor in writing to deliver the same to the Collateral Agent at any place or places so designated by the Collateral Agent, in which event such Grantor shall at its own expense: (i) promptly cause the same to be moved to the place or places designated by the Collateral Agent and therewith delivered to the Collateral Agent, (ii) store and keep any Collateral so delivered to the Collateral Agent at such place or places pending further action by the Collateral Agent and (iii) while the Collateral shall be so stored and kept, provide such security and maintenance services as shall be necessary to protect the same and to preserve and maintain them in good condition, subject to ordinary wear and tear. Each Grantor’s obligation to deliver the Collateral as contemplated in this Section 8.1 is of the essence hereof. Upon application to a court of equity having jurisdiction, the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to a decree requiring specific performance by any Grantor of such obligation;

e.Withdraw all moneys, instruments, securities and other property in any bank, financial securities, deposit or other account of any Grantor constituting Collateral for application to the Secured Obligations as provided in Section 8.7 hereof;

f.Retain and apply the Distributions to the Secured Obligations as provided in ARTICLE V hereof;

g.After or upon delivery of any required notice, as applicable, exercise any and all rights as beneficial and legal owner of the Collateral, including, without limitation, perfecting assignment of and exercising any and all voting, consensual and other rights and powers with respect to any Collateral as provided in and pursuant to the terms of ARTICLE V hereof; and

h.Exercise all the rights and remedies of a secured party under the UCC, and the Collateral Agent may also in its sole discretion, without notice except as specified in Section 8.2 hereof (and in the proviso at the end of this Section 8.1), sell, assign or grant a license to use the Collateral or any part thereof in one or more parcels at public or private sale, at any exchange, broker’s board or at any of the Collateral Agent’s offices or elsewhere, for cash, on credit or for future delivery, and at such price or prices and upon such other terms as the Collateral Agent may deem commercially reasonable. The Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party or any of their respective Affiliates may be the purchaser, licensee, assignee or recipient of any or all of the Collateral at any such sale and shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold, assigned or licensed at such sale, to use and apply any of the Secured Obligations owed to such Person as a credit on account of the purchase price of any Collateral payable by such Person at such sale. Each purchaser, assignee, licensee or recipient at any such sale shall acquire the property sold, assigned or licensed absolutely free from any claim or right on the part of any Grantor (other than any claim or right that any notice specifically required to be delivered pursuant to the proviso below was not delivered), and each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law, all rights of redemption, stay and/or appraisal which it now has or may at any time in the future have under any rule of Requirements of Law now existing or hereafter enacted. The Collateral Agent shall not be obligated to make any sale of Collateral regardless of notice of sale having been given. The Collateral Agent may adjourn any public or private sale from time to time by announcement at the time and place fixed therefor, and such sale may, without further notice, be made at the time and place to which it was so adjourned. To the fullest extent permitted by Requirements of Law, each Grantor hereby waives any claims against the Collateral Agent arising by reason of the fact that the price at which any Collateral may have been sold, assigned or licensed at such a private sale was less

than the price which might have been obtained at a public sale, even if the Collateral Agent accepts the first offer received and does not offer such Collateral to more than one offeree;

provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary, and unless an Event of Default under Section 10.01(f) of the Credit Agreement has occurred and is continuing, Collateral Agent shall provide Grantors with two (2) Business Day’s written notice prior to exercising any of the foregoing remedies, or other right or remedy, with respect to the Pledged Securities (it being understood that, to the extent this Security Agreement provides for the Collateral Agent’s delivery of two (2) Business Day’s prior written notice before exercising any of such rights or remedies elsewhere in this Security Agreement, such references shall not be deemed to read cumulatively, and in all events shall only require two (2) Business Day’s prior written notice before exercising any rights or remedies against any particular Pledged Securities held by a Grantor).

Section 8.2 Notice of Sale. Each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent notice of sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by applicable Requirements of Law and unless the Collateral is perishable or threatens to decline speedily in value, or is of a type customarily sold on a recognized market (in which event the Collateral Agent shall provide such Grantor such advance written notice as may be practicable under the circumstances), ten (10) days’ prior written notice to such Grantor of the time and place of any public sale or of the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition is to take place shall be commercially reasonable notification of such matters. No notification need be given to any Grantor if it has signed, after the occurrence of an Event of Default, a statement renouncing or modifying (as permitted under law) any right to notification of sale or other intended disposition.

Section 8.3 Waiver of Notice and Claims; Other Waivers; Marshalling. (a) Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, notice (other than any notice specifically required hereunder) or judicial hearing in connection with the Collateral Agent’s taking possession or the Collateral Agent’s disposition of any of the Collateral, including, without limitation, any and all prior notice and hearing for any prejudgment remedy or remedies and any such right which such Grantor would otherwise have under Requirements of Law, and each Grantor hereby further waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law: (a) all damages occasioned by such taking of possession (other than such damages determined by final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to have been caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Collateral Agent or any of its Related Parties as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction), (b) all other requirements as to the time, place and terms of sale or other requirements with respect to the enforcement of the Collateral Agent’s rights hereunder and (c) all rights of redemption, appraisal, valuation, stay, extension or moratorium now or hereafter in force under any applicable Requirements of Law. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any incorrect or improper payment made pursuant to this ARTICLE VIII except to the extent resulting solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Any sale of, or the grant of options to purchase, or any other realization upon, any Collateral shall operate to divest all right, title, interest, claim and demand, either at law or in equity, of the applicable Grantor therein and thereto, and shall be a perpetual bar both at law and in equity against such Grantor and against any and all Persons claiming or attempting to claim the Collateral so sold, optioned or realized upon, or any part thereof, from, through or under such Grantor.

(b) Each Grantor hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, demand, notice (other than as expressly required hereunder), protest, notice of acceptance of this Security Agreement, notice of credit extensions, Collateral received or delivered or any other action taken in reliance hereon and all other demands and notices of any description.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall not be required to marshal any present or future collateral security (including the Collateral) for, or other assurances of payment of, the Secured Obligations or any of them or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable Requirements of Law, each Grantor hereby agrees that it will not invoke any Requirements of Law relating to the marshalling of collateral and hereby irrevocably waives the benefits of all such Requirements of Law.

Section 8.4 Certain Sales of Collateral.

a.Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in law, rules, regulations or orders of any Governmental Authority, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale of all or any part of the Collateral, to limit purchasers to those who meet the requirements of such Governmental Authority. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions, and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such restricted sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that, except as may be required by applicable Requirements of Law, the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales.

b.Each Grantor recognizes that, by reason of certain prohibitions contained in the Securities Act, and applicable state or foreign securities laws, the Collateral Agent may be compelled, with respect to any sale or disposition of all or any part of the Securities Collateral and Investment Property, to limit purchasers to Persons who will agree, among other things, to acquire such Securities Collateral or Investment Property for their own account, for investment and not with a view to the distribution or resale thereof. Each Grantor acknowledges that any such private sales may be at prices and on terms less favorable to the Collateral Agent than those obtainable through a public sale without such restrictions (including, without limitation, a public offering made pursuant to a registration statement under the Securities Act), and, notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner and that the Collateral Agent shall have no obligation to engage in public sales and no obligation to delay the sale of any Securities Collateral or Investment Property for the period of time necessary to permit the issuer thereof to register it for a form of public sale requiring registration under the Securities Act or under applicable state or foreign securities laws, even if such issuer would agree to do so.

c.To the extent that applicable Requirements of Law impose duties on the Collateral Agent to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner, each Grantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for the Collateral Agent (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by the Collateral Agent to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to fail to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other Requirements of Law, to fail to obtain consents for Governmental Authorities or third parties for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against account debtors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to fail to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against account debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as any Grantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets,

(x) to disclaim or modify disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure the Collateral Agent against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to the Collateral Agent a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by the Collateral Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist the Collateral Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. The Grantors acknowledge that the purpose of this SECTION 8.4(c) is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent would fulfill the Collateral Agent’s duties under the UCC or other Requirements of Law of the State or any other relevant jurisdiction in the Collateral Agent’s exercise of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by the Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to fail to fulfill such duties solely on account of not being indicated in this SECTION 8.4(c). Without limiting the foregoing, nothing contained in this SECTION 8.4(c) shall be construed to grant any rights to any Grantor or to impose any duties on the Collateral Agent that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable Requirements of Law in the absence of this SECTION 8.4(c).

d.If the Collateral Agent determines to exercise its right to sell any or all of the Securities Collateral or Investment Property, upon written request, the applicable Grantor shall from time to time furnish to the Collateral Agent all such information as the Collateral Agent may reasonably request in order to determine the number and nature of interest, of securities or other instruments included in the Securities Collateral or Investment Property which may be sold by the Collateral Agent as exempt transactions under the Securities Act and the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission thereunder, as the same are from time to time in effect.

e.Each Grantor further agrees that a breach of any of the covenants contained in this Section 8.4 will cause irreparable injury to the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties, that the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties have no adequate remedy at law in respect of such breach and, as a consequence, that each and every covenant contained in this Section 8.4 shall be specifically enforceable against such Grantor, and such Grantor hereby waives and agrees not to assert any defenses against an action for specific performance of such covenants except for a defense that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any notice required to be delivered pursuant to the proviso in Section 8.1(h) has not been delivered, or the Obligations have been paid in full (other than unasserted contingent indemnification Obligations and unasserted expense reimbursement Obligations) and the Commitments have been terminated.

Section 8.5 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies.

a.No failure on the part of the Collateral Agent to exercise, no course of dealing with respect to, and no delay on the part of the Collateral Agent in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy; nor shall the Collateral Agent be required to look first to, enforce or exhaust any other security, collateral or guaranties. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and are not exclusive of any remedies provided by applicable Requirements of Law, in equity or otherwise.

b.In the event that the Collateral Agent shall have instituted any proceeding to enforce any right, power or remedy under this Security Agreement by foreclosure, sale, entry or otherwise, and such proceeding shall have been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or shall have been determined adversely to the Collateral Agent, then and in every such case, the Grantors, the Collateral Agent and each other Secured Party shall be restored to their respective former positions and rights hereunder with respect to the Collateral, and all rights, remedies and powers of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties shall continue as if no such proceeding had been instituted.

Section 8.6 Certain Additional Actions Regarding Intellectual Property. Each Grantor hereby grants to the Collateral Agent a power of attorney to sign, solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, any document which may be required by the United States Patent and Trademark Office or similar registrar in order to effect an assignment of all

right, title and interest in all registered Intellectual Property Collateral and each application for such registration to the Collateral Agent, and record the same. Solely upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may, by written notice to the relevant Grantor, take any or all of the following actions: (i) declare the entire right, title and interest of such Grantor in and to the Intellectual Property Collateral, vested in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in which event such rights, title and interest shall immedi-ately vest, in the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and the Collateral Agent shall be entitled to exercise the power of attorney referred to in this SECTION 8.6 hereof to execute, cause to be acknowledged and notarized and record said absolute assignment with the applicable agency or registrar; (ii) take and use or sell the Intellectual Property Collateral; and (iii) have the right to carry on the business and use the assets of such Grantor in connection with which the Trademarks have been used, and such Grantor shall execute such further documents that the Collateral Agent may reasonably request to further confirm this and to transfer ownership of the Intellectual Property Collateral and registrations and any pending applications in the United States Copyright Office, United States Patent and Trademark Office, equivalent office in a state of the United States or a foreign jurisdiction or applicable domain name registrar to the Collateral Agent. Within five (5) Business Days of written notice thereafter from the Collateral Agent upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, each Grantor shall make available to the Collateral Agent, to the extent within such Grantor’s power and authority, such personnel in such Grantor’s employ on the date of the Event of Default as the Collateral Agent may reasonably designate to permit such Grantor to continue, directly or indirectly, to produce, advertise and sell the products and services sold by such Grantor under the registered Patents, Trademarks and/or Copyrights, and such Persons shall be available to perform their prior functions on the Collateral Agent’s behalf.

Section 8.7 Application of Proceeds. The proceeds received by the Collateral Agent in respect of any sale of, collection from or other realization upon all or any part of the Collateral pursuant to the exercise by the Collateral Agent of its remedies shall be applied, together with any other sums then held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Security Agreement, in accordance with and as set forth in Section 10.03 of the Credit Agreement.

ARTICLE IX

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 9.1 Concerning Collateral Agent.

a.The Collateral Agent has been appointed as Collateral Agent pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The actions of the Collateral Agent hereunder are subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent shall have the right hereunder to make demands, to give notices, to exercise or refrain from exercising any rights, and to take or refrain from taking action (including, without limitation, the release or substitution of the Collateral), in accordance with this Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement and shall not be liable for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it in good faith. Each Secured Party, by its acceptance of the benefits hereof, agrees that it shall have no right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral hereunder, it being understood and agreed by such Secured Party that all rights and remedies hereunder may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms of this Security Agreement. The Collateral Agent may employ agents and attorneys-in-fact in connection herewith in accordance with the Credit Agreement. The Collateral Agent may resign and a successor Collateral Agent may be appointed in the manner provided in the Credit Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as the Collateral Agent by a successor Collateral Agent, that permitted successor Collateral Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with

all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent under this Security Agreement and the retiring Collateral Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Security Agreement from and after the exact time of such discharge. After any retiring Collateral Agent’s resignation, the provisions hereof shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it under this Security Agreement while it was the Collateral Agent.

b.The Collateral Agent shall be deemed to have exercised reasonable care in the custody and preservation of the Collateral in its possession if such Collateral is accorded treatment substantially equivalent to that which the Collateral Agent, in its individual capacity, accords its own property consisting of similar instruments or interests, it being understood that neither the Collateral Agent nor any of the other Secured Parties nor any of their Related Parties shall have responsibility or liability for, without limitation, (i) ascertaining or taking action with respect to calls, conversions, exchanges, maturities, tenders or other matters relating to any Securities Collateral, whether or not the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party has or is deemed to have knowledge of such matters, (ii) failing to demand, collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any delay in doing so, (iii) taking any necessary steps to preserve rights against any Person with respect to any Collateral or (iv) any actions (or inactions) to the extent same do not result solely from the Collateral Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

c.The Collateral Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice, statement, certificate, order or other document or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and, with respect to all matters pertaining to this Security Agreement and its duties hereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it.

d.If any item of Collateral also constitutes collateral granted to the Collateral Agent under any other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type, in the event of any conflict between the provisions hereof and the provisions of such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument of any type in respect of such collateral, the applicable provision set forth in this Security Agreement shall control unless otherwise agreed to in writing by the Grantors and the Collateral Agent in such other deed of trust, mortgage, security agreement, pledge or instrument.

Section 9.2 Collateral Agent May Perform; Collateral Agent Appointed Attorney‑in‑Fact. If any Grantor shall fail to perform any covenants contained in this Security Agreement or in the Credit Agreement, or if any representation or warranty on the part of any Grantor contained herein shall be breached, the Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) do the same or cause it to be done or remedy any such breach, and may expend funds for such purpose; provided, however, that a breach or failure to perform a covenant shall not be deemed to have occurred for purposes of this SECTION 9.2 upon any Grantor’s nonpayment of taxes or any other amount payable that is being contested in good faith through appropriate proceedings. Any and all amounts so expended by the Collateral Agent shall be paid by the Grantors in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.3 hereof. Neither the provisions of this Section 9.2 nor any action taken by the Collateral Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 9.2 shall prevent any such failure to observe any covenant contained in this Security Agreement nor any breach of warranty from constituting an Event of Default. Subject to Section 5.2 hereof, each Grantor hereby appoints the Collateral Agent as its attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Grantor and in the name of such Grantor, from time to time after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default in the Collateral Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument consistent with the terms of the Credit Agreement and the other Security Documents which the Collateral Agent may deem necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes hereof. The foregoing grant of authority is a power of attorney coupled with an interest and such appointment shall be irrevocable for the term hereof. Each Grantor hereby ratifies all that such attorney shall lawfully do or cause to be done by virtue hereof in accordance with this Section 9.2. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 9.2 to the contrary, the Collateral Agent

agrees that it will not exercise any rights under the power of attorney provided for in this Section 9.2 unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

Section 9.3 Expenses. Each Grantor will upon demand pay to the Collateral Agent the amount of any and all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 12.01 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 9.4 Continuing Security Interest; Assignment. This Security Agreement shall create a continuing security interest in the Collateral and shall (a) be binding upon the Grantors, their respective, permitted successors and assigns, and (b) inure, together with the rights and remedies of the Collateral Agent hereunder, to the benefit of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties and each of their respective successors, transferees and assigns. No other Persons (including, without limitation, any other creditor of any Grantor) shall have any interest herein or any right or benefit with respect hereto.

Section 9.5 Termination; Release.

a.This Security Agreement, the Liens in favor of the Collateral Agent (for the benefit of itself and the other Secured Parties) and all other security interests granted hereby shall immediately and automatically terminate with respect to all Secured Obligations on the Termination Date, provided, however, that in connection with the termination of this Security Agreement, the Collateral Agent may require such indemnities as it shall reasonably deem necessary or appropriate to protect the Secured Parties against (y) loss on account of credits previously applied to the Secured Obligations that may subsequently be reversed or revoked, and (z) any Secured Obligations that may thereafter arise under Section 11.06 of the Credit Agreement.

b.The Collateral shall be released from the Lien of this Security Agreement in accordance with the provisions of the Credit Agreement. Upon termination hereof or any release of Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Security Agreement and the Credit Agreement, the Collateral Agent shall, upon the request and at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors, release, assign, transfer and deliver to the Grantors, without recourse to or warranty by the Collateral Agent, such of the Collateral to be released (in the case of a partial release) or all of the Collateral (in the case of termination of this Security Agreement) as may be in possession of the Collateral Agent and as shall not have been sold or otherwise applied pursuant to the terms hereof, and, with respect to any other Collateral, file, or authorize such Grantor to file, proper documents and instruments (including UCC‑3 termination statements or releases and releases with respect to Intellectual Property Collateral to be filed with the United States Trademark and Patent Office and the United States Copyright Office) acknowledging the termination hereof or the release of such Collateral, as the case may be.

c.At any time that the respective Grantor desires that the Collateral Agent take any action described in clause (b) of this Section 9.5, such Grantor shall, upon reasonable request of the Collateral Agent, deliver to the Collateral Agent an officer’s certificate certifying that the release of the respective Collateral is permitted pursuant to clause (a) and (b) of this Section 9.5. The Collateral Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to any other Secured Party as the result of any release of Collateral by it as permitted (or which the Collateral Agent in good faith believes to be permitted) by this Section 9.5.

Section 9.6 Modification in Writing. No amendment, modification, supplement, termination or waiver of or to any provision hereof, nor consent to any departure by any Grantor therefrom, shall be effective unless the same shall be made in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement and unless in writing and signed by the Collateral Agent and the Grantors. Any amendment, modification or supplement of or to any provision hereof, any waiver of any provision hereof and any consent to any departure by any Grantor from the terms of any provision hereof shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which made or given. Except where notice is specifically required by this Security Agreement, no notice to or demand on any Grantor in any case shall entitle any Grantor to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

Section 9.7 Notices. Unless otherwise provided herein or in the Credit Agreement, any notice or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be given in the manner and become effective as set forth in Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement, as to any Grantor, addressed to it at the address of the Borrower set forth in Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement and as to the Collateral Agent, addressed to it at the address set forth in Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement, or in each case at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to the other parties hereto complying as to delivery with the terms of this Section 9.7 and Section 12.03 of the Credit Agreement.

Section 9.8 GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; VENUE; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. SECTION 12.08 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT IS HEREBY INCORPORATED HEREIN, MUTATIS MUTANDIS, AS IF A PART HEREOF.

Section 9.9 Severability of Provisions. Any provision hereof which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 9.10 Execution in Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Security Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Security Agreement by telecopy, .pdf or other electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Security Agreement.

Section 9.11 No Release.

a.Nothing set forth in this Security Agreement shall relieve any Grantor from the performance of any term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Grantor’s part to be performed or observed under or in respect of any of the Collateral.

b.Nothing set forth in this Security Agreement shall impose any obligation on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party to perform or observe any such term, covenant, condition or agreement on such Grantor’s part to be so performed or observed or shall impose any liability on the Collateral Agent or any other Secured Party for any act or omission on the part of such Grantor relating thereto or for any breach of any representation or warranty on the part of such Grantor contained in this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or under or in respect of the Collateral or made in connection herewith or therewith. This Section 9.11(b) shall survive the termination hereof and the discharge of such Grantor’s obligations under this Security Agreement, the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Section 9.12 Obligations Absolute. All obligations of each Grantor hereunder shall be absolute and unconditional irrespective of:

a.any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, arrangement, readjustment, composition, liquidation or the like of any Grantor;

b.any lack of validity or enforceability of the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

c.any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Secured Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to any departure from the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto;

d.any pledge, exchange, release or non-perfection of any other collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to any departure from any guarantee, for all or any of the Secured Obligations; or

e.any exercise, non-exercise or waiver of any right, remedy, power or privilege under or in respect hereof, the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document except as specifically set forth in a waiver granted pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.6 hereof.

Priorities and Agreements with Respect to Shared Collateral

Section 2.01 Priority of Claims.

(c)Notwithstanding the date, time, method, manner or order of grant, attachment or perfection of any Liens securing any Series of First-Lien Obligations granted on the Shared Collateral and notwithstanding any provision of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, any applicable real estate laws, or any other applicable law or the Secured Credit Documents or any defect or deficiencies in the Liens securing the First-Lien Obligations of any Series or any other circumstance whatsoever (but, in each case, subject to Section 1.03), each First-Lien Secured Party hereby agrees that the Liens securing each Series of First-Lien Obligations on any Shared Collateral shall be of equal priority.

(d)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other First-Lien Security Documents to the contrary, Collateral consisting of cash and Cash Equivalents pledged to secure Credit Agreement Obligations consisting of reimbursement obligations in respect of Letters of Credit or otherwise held by the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent pursuant to Sections 2.01(f) 2.14, 4.02 or Article X of the Credit Agreement (or any equivalent successor provision) (the “Non-Shared Collateral”) shall be applied as specified in the Credit Agreement and will not constitute Shared Collateral and it is understood and agreed that this Agreement shall not restrict the rights of any Credit Agreement Secured Party to pursue enforcement proceedings, exercise remedies or make determinations with respect to the Non‑Shared Collateral or otherwise take actions with respect to the Non-Shared Collateral in accordance with the Credit Agreement.

At any time when the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent is the Controlling Collateral Agent, no Additional First-Lien Secured Party shall or shall instruct any Collateral Agent to, and neither the Additional Collateral Agent nor any other Collateral Agent that is not the Controlling Collateral Agent shall, commence any judicial or nonjudicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its security interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Shared Collateral (including with respect to any intercreditor agreement with respect to any Shared Collateral), whether under any Additional First-Lien Security Document, applicable law or otherwise, it being agreed that only the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent, acting in accordance with the Credit Agreement Collateral Documents, shall be entitled to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies with respect to Shared Collateral at such time.

(f)With respect to any Shared Collateral at any time when the Additional Collateral Agent is the Controlling Collateral Agent, (i) the Controlling Collateral Agent shall act only on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative, (ii) the Controlling Collateral Agent shall not follow any instructions with respect to such Shared Collateral (including with respect to any intercreditor agreement with respect to any Shared Collateral) from any Non-Controlling Authorized Representative (or any other First-Lien Secured Party other than the Applicable Authorized Representative) and (iii) no Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or other First-Lien Secured Party (other than the Applicable Authorized Representative) shall or shall instruct the Controlling Collateral Agent to, commence any judicial or non-judicial foreclosure proceedings with respect to, seek to have a trustee, receiver, liquidator or similar official appointed for or over, attempt any action to take possession of, exercise any right, remedy or power with

respect to, or otherwise take any action to enforce its security interest in or realize upon, or take any other action available to it in respect of, any Shared Collateral (including with respect to any intercreditor agreement with respect to any Shared Collateral), whether under any First-Lien Security Document, applicable law or otherwise, it being agreed that only the Controlling Collateral Agent, acting on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative and in accordance with the applicable Additional First-Lien Security Documents, shall be entitled to take any such actions or exercise any such remedies with respect to Shared Collateral.

(g)Notwithstanding the equal priority of the Liens securing each Series of First-Lien Obligations, the Controlling Collateral Agent may deal with the Shared Collateral as if such Controlling Collateral Agent had a senior Lien on such Collateral. No Non-Controlling Authorized Representative or Non-Controlling Secured Party will contest, protest or object to (or support the challenge of any other Person to) any foreclosure proceeding or action brought by the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or the Controlling Secured Parties or any other exercise by the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or the Controlling Secured Parties of any rights and remedies relating to the Shared Collateral, or to cause the Controlling Collateral Agent to do so. The foregoing shall not be construed to limit the rights and priorities of any First-Lien Secured Party, any Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative with respect to any Collateral not constituting Shared Collateral (including, without limitation, any Non-Shared Collateral).

(h)Each of the First-Lien Secured Parties and each Authorized Representative agrees that it will not (and hereby waives any right to) question or contest or support any other Person in contesting, in any proceeding (including any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding), the perfection, priority, validity, attachment or enforceability of a Lien held by or on behalf of any of the First-Lien Secured Parties in all or any part of the Collateral, or the provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative to enforce this Agreement.

Section 2.03 No Interference; Payment Over.

(i)Each First-Lien Secured Party agrees that (i) it will not challenge or question in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any First-Lien Obligations of any Series or any First-Lien Security Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien under any First-Lien Security Document or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement; (ii) it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shared Collateral by the Controlling Collateral Agent, (iii) except as provided in Section 2.02, it shall have no right to (A) direct the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Secured Party to exercise, and shall not exercise, any right, remedy or power with respect to any Shared Collateral (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement) or (B) consent to the exercise by the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Secured Party of any right, remedy or power with respect to any Shared Collateral, (iv) it will not institute any suit or assert in any suit, any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or other proceeding any claim against the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Secured Party seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to any Shared Collateral, and none of the Controlling Collateral Agent, any Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First-Lien Secured Party shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Controlling Collateral Agent, such Applicable Authorized Representative or other First-Lien Secured Party with respect to any Shared Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (v) it will not seek, and hereby waives any right, to have any Shared Collateral or any part thereof marshaled upon any foreclosure or other disposition of such Collateral and (vi) it will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement; provided that nothing

in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any of the Controlling Collateral Agent or any other First-Lien Secured Party to enforce this Agreement.

(j)Each First-Lien Secured Party hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or shall realize any proceeds or payment in respect of any such Shared Collateral, pursuant to any First-Lien Security Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement other than this Agreement), at any time prior to the Discharge of each of the First-Lien Obligations, then it shall hold such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the other First-Lien Secured Parties and promptly transfer such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Controlling Collateral Agent, to be distributed in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.01 hereof.

Section 2.04 Automatic Release of Liens.

(k)If, at any time the Controlling Collateral Agent forecloses upon or otherwise exercises remedies against any Shared Collateral resulting in a sale or disposition thereof, then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of each other Collateral Agent for the benefit of each Series of First-Lien Secured Parties upon such Shared Collateral will automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens of the Controlling Collateral Agent on such Shared Collateral are released and discharged; provided that (i) the Liens in favor of each Collateral Agent for the benefit of each related Series of First-Lien Secured Parties attach to any such Proceeds of such sale or disposition with the same priority vis-a-vis all the other First-Lien Secured Parties as existed prior to the commencement of such sale or other disposition, and any such Liens shall remain subject to the terms of this Agreement until application thereof pursuant to Section 2.01 and (ii) any proceeds of any Shared Collateral realized therefrom shall be applied pursuant to Section 2.01.

(l)Each Collateral Agent and Authorized Representative agrees to execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors and without recourse to, and without representation and warranty by, such Collateral Agent or Authorized Representative) all such authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Controlling Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral provided for in this Section 2.04.

(m)Each Non-Controlling Authorized Representative and Collateral Agent that is not the Controlling Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of the First-Lien Secured Parties of the Series for whom it is acting, hereby irrevocably appoints the Controlling Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the Controlling Collateral Agent, which appointment is coupled with an interest with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Non-Controlling Authorized Representative, Collateral Agent or First-Lien Secured Party, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral provided for in this Section 2.04 and to otherwise exercise rights and remedies with respect to the Shared Collateral.

Section 2.05 Certain Agreements with Respect to Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings.

(n)This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the commencement of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law by or against the Borrower or any of its respective Subsidiaries. The relative rights as to the Shared Collateral and proceeds thereof shall continue after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition therefor. The parties hereto acknowledge that the provisions of this Agreement are intended to be enforceable as contemplated by Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code. All references herein to any Grantor shall include such Grantor as a debtor-in-possession and any receiver or trustee for such Grantor.

(o)If the Borrower and/or any other Grantor shall become subject to a case (a “Bankruptcy Case”) under the Bankruptcy Law and shall, as debtor(s)-in-possession, move for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP Lenders”) to the Borrower or such Grantor under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law or the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, each First- Lien Secured Party (other than any Controlling Secured Party or the Authorized Representative of any Controlling Secured Party) agrees that it will not raise, join or support any objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”) or to any use of cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral, unless the Controlling Collateral Agent (in the case of the Additional Collateral Agent, acting on the instructions of the Applicable Authorized Representative) shall then oppose or object (or join in or support any objection) to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens or use of cash collateral (and (i) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same terms as the Liens of the Controlling Secured Parties (other than any Liens of any First-Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and (ii) to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the First- Lien Obligations of the Controlling Secured Parties, each Non-Controlling Secured Party will confirm the priorities with respect to such Shared Collateral as set forth herein), in each case so long as (A) the First-Lien Secured Parties of each Series retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral pledged to the DIP Lenders, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding, with the same priority vis-a-vis all the other First-Lien Secured Parties (other than any Liens of the First-Lien Secured Parties constituting DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Case, (B) the First‑ Lien Secured Parties of each Series are granted Liens on any additional collateral pledged to any First-Lien Secured Parties as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, with the same priority vis-a-vis the First-Lien Secured Parties as set forth in this Agreement, (C) if any amount of such DIP Financing or cash collateral is applied to repay any of the First-Lien Obligations, such amount is applied pursuant to Section 2.01, and (D) if any First-Lien Secured Parties are granted adequate protection, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, the proceeds of such adequate protection are applied pursuant to Section 2.01; provided that this Agreement shall not limit the right of the First-Lien Secured Parties of each Series to object to the grant of a Lien to secure the DIP Financing over any collateral subject to Liens in favor of the First-Lien Secured Parties of such Series or its Authorized Representative that shall not constitute Shared Collateral; and provided, further, that the First-Lien Secured Parties receiving adequate protection shall not object to any other First-Lien Secured Party receiving adequate protection comparable to any adequate protection granted to such First-Lien Secured Parties in connection with a DIP Financing or use of cash collateral.

(p)Nothing in this Agreement will in any way prohibit or limit the right of any First-Lien Secured Party to receive and retain any debt or equity securities that are issued by any reorganized debtor pursuant to any plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding; provided, however, that any debt or equity securities received by any First-Lien Secured Party on account of Proceeds in satisfaction of any First-Lien Obligations that constitute a “secured claim” within the meaning of section 506(a) of the Bankruptcy Code (or similar Bankruptcy Law) will be paid over or otherwise transferred to the Controlling Collateral Agent for application in accordance with Section 2.01 unless such distribution is made under a plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding that purports to give effect to this Agreement.

Section 2.06 Reinstatement. In the event that any of the First-Lien Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference or other avoidance action under the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law,

or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Article II shall be fully applicable thereto until all such First-Lien Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash.

Section 2.07 Insurance. As between the First-Lien Secured Parties, the Controlling Collateral Agent shall have the right to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral.

Section 2.08 Refinancings, etc.

The First-Lien Obligations of any Series may, subject to the limitations set forth in the then existing Secured Credit Documents, be Refinanced (in whole or in part) or otherwise amended or modified from time to time, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any Secured Credit Document) of any First-Lien Secured Party of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof (except to the extent that the applicable Refinancing indebtedness is unsecured or secured by the Shared Collateral on a junior lien basis); provided that the Authorized Representative of the holders of any such Refinancing indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the holders of such Refinancing indebtedness.

Section 2.09 Controlling Collateral Agent as Gratuitous Bailee for Perfection.

(q)The Control Collateral shall be delivered, to the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent and the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent agrees to hold (and, pending delivery of the Control Collateral to the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent, each other Collateral Agent agrees to hold) any Shared Collateral constituting Control Collateral that is part of the Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First-Lien Secured Party and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Control Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First-Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09; provided that at any time the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent is not the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent shall, at the request of the Additional Collateral Agent, promptly deliver all Control Collateral to the Additional Collateral Agent together with any necessary endorsements (which endorsements shall be without any recourse or recoupment and without any representation or warranty). The Borrower shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify each Collateral Agent for loss or damage suffered by such Collateral Agent as a result of such transfer except for loss or damage suffered by such Collateral Agent as a result of the willful misconduct, gross negligence, bad faith or material breach of this Agreement by such Collateral Agent or any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of such Collateral Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment).

(r)The Controlling Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Shared Collateral constituting Control Collateral, from time to time in its possession or control, as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First-Lien Secured Party and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Control Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First-Lien Security Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.09.

(s)The duties or responsibilities of each Collateral Agent under this Section 2.09 shall be limited solely to holding any Shared Collateral constituting Control Collateral as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First-Lien Secured Party for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by such First-Lien Secured Parties thereon.

Section 2.10 Amendments to Security Documents.

(t)Without the prior written consent of the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent, each Additional First-Lien Secured Party agrees that no Additional First-Lien Security Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Additional First-Lien Security Document would be prohibited by, or would require any Grantor to act or refrain from acting in a manner that would violate, any of the terms of this Agreement.

(u)Without the prior written consent of the Additional Collateral Agent, the Credit Agreement Collateral Agent agrees that no Credit Agreement Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Credit Agreement Collateral Document would be prohibited by, or would require any Grantor to act or refrain from acting in a manner that would violate, any of the terms of this Agreement.

(v)In making determinations required by this Section 2.10, each Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower stating that such amendment is permitted by Section 2.10(a) or (b), as the case may be.

Section 2.11 No New Liens.

(w)The parties hereto, and each of the Grantors, agree that, so long as the Discharge of Credit Agreement Obligations has not occurred, none of the Grantors shall grant or permit any additional Liens on any asset or property of any Grantor to secure any Credit Agreement Obligation or Additional Obligation unless it has granted, or concurrently therewith grants, or permits the grant of, a Lien on such asset or property of such Grantor to secure each other Series of First Lien Obligations. If any Authorized Representative or any Secured Party shall hold any Lien on any assets or property of any Grantor securing any Credit Agreement Obligation or Additional Obligation, as applicable, that are not also subject to Liens securing all other First Lien Obligations under the applicable Security Documents (the “Undersecured Obligations”), subject to Section 1.03, (A) such Authorized Representative or Secured Party shall be deemed to hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of each Authorized Representative and the other Secured Parties in respect of Undersecured Obligations as security for such Person’s First Lien Obligations and (B) the Grantors shall notify the Authorized Representative for the Undersecured Obligations promptly upon becoming aware of any Undersecured Obligations and shall promptly grant a similar Lien with the same priority on such assets or property to each Authorized Representative as security for the applicable First Lien Obligations.

ARTICLE III

Existence and Amounts of Liens and Obligations

Section 3.01 Determinations with Respect to Amounts of Liens and Obligations. Whenever a Collateral Agent or any Authorized Representative shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First-Lien Obligations of any Series, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First-Lien Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Authorized Representative or Collateral Agent and shall be entitled to make such determination or not make any determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if an Authorized Representative or a Collateral Agent shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Collateral Agent or Authorized Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of an authorized officer of the Borrower. Each Collateral Agent and each Authorized Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and

shall have no liability to any Grantor, any First-Lien Secured Party or any other person as a result of such determination.

ARTICLE IV

The Controlling Collateral Agent

Section 4.01 Authority.

(x)Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed to impose any fiduciary or other duty on any Controlling Collateral Agent to any Non‑Controlling Secured Party or give any Non-Controlling Secured Party the right to direct any Controlling Collateral Agent, except that each Controlling Collateral Agent shall be obligated to distribute proceeds of any Shared Collateral in accordance with Section 2.01 hereof.

(y)In furtherance of the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the Controlling Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the First-Lien Secured Parties, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the First-Lien Security Documents, as applicable, pursuant to which the Controlling Collateral Agent is the collateral agent for such Shared Collateral, without regard to any rights to which the Non-Controlling Secured Parties would otherwise be entitled as a result of the First-Lien Obligations held by such Non-Controlling Secured Parties. Without limiting the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Secured Party agrees that none of the Controlling Collateral Agent, the Applicable Authorized Representative or any other First-Lien Secured Party shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First-Lien Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First-Lien Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Secured Parties, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Non-Controlling Secured Parties from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Except with respect to any actions expressly prohibited or required to be taken by this Agreement, each of the First-Lien Secured Parties waives any claim it may now or hereafter have against any Collateral Agent or the Authorized Representative of any other Series of First-Lien Obligations or any other First-Lien Secured Party of any other Series arising out of (i) any actions which any Collateral Agent, Authorized Representative or the First-Lien Secured Parties take or omit to take (including, actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the First-Lien Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the applicable First-Lien Security Documents or any other agreement related thereto or to the collection of the First-Lien Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the First-Lien Obligations, (ii) any election by any Applicable Authorized Representative or any holders of First-Lien Obligations, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code or (iii) subject to Section 2.05, any borrowing by, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, Holdings, Intermediate Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Controlling Collateral Agent shall not accept any Shared Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any First‑Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, without the consent of each Authorized Representative representing holders of First-Lien Obligations for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral.

Section 4.02 Rights as a First-Lien Secured Party. The Person serving as the Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a First-Lien Secured Party under any Series of First-Lien Obligations that it holds as any other First-Lien Secured Party of such Series and may exercise the same as though it were not the Controlling Collateral Agent and the term “First-Lien Secured Party” or “First-Lien Secured Parties” or (as applicable) “Credit Agreement Secured Party”, “Credit Agreement

Secured Parties”, “Additional First-Lien Secured Party”, “Additional First-Lien Secured Parties”, “Initial Additional First-Lien Secured Party” or “Initial Additional First-Lien Secured Parties” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the Person serving as the Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Controlling Collateral Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to any other First-Lien Secured Party.

Section 4.03 Exculpatory Provisions.

(z)The Controlling Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other First-Lien Security Documents to which it is a party. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Controlling Collateral Agent

(i)shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties of any kind or nature to any Person, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(ii)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 First-Lien Security Documents that the Controlling Collateral Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Applicable Authorized Representative; provided that the Controlling Collateral Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Controlling Collateral Agent to liability or that is contrary to any First-Lien Security Document or applicable law;

(iii)shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other First-Lien Security Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Controlling Collateral Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity;

(iv)shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (A) with the consent or at the request of the Applicable Authorized Representative or (B) in the absence of the willful misconduct, gross negligence, bad faith or material breach of this Agreement by the Controlling Collateral Agent or any affiliate, director, officer, employee, counsel, agent or attorney-in-fact of the Controlling Collateral Agent (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final, non-appealable judgment) or (C) in reliance on a certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower stating that such action is permitted by the terms of this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the Controlling Collateral Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default under any Series of First-Lien Obligations unless and until notice describing such Event of Default is given to the Controlling Collateral Agent by the Authorized Representative of such First-Lien Obligations or the Borrower);

(v)shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other First-Lien Security Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (C) 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, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other First-Lien Security Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported to be created by the First-Lien Security Documents, (E) the existence, value or the sufficiency of any Collateral for any Series of First-Lien Obligations, or (F) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in any Secured Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Controlling Collateral Agent; and

(vi)with respect to the Credit Agreement or any Additional First-Lien Document, may conclusively assume that the Grantors have complied with all of their obligations thereunder unless advised in writing by the Authorized Representative thereunder to the contrary specifically setting forth the alleged violation.

(aa)Each First-Lien Secured Party acknowledges that, in addition to acting as the initial Controlling Collateral Agent, Jefferies Finance LLC also serves as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent (under, and as defined in, the Credit Agreement), and each First-Lien Secured Party hereby waives any right to make any objection or claim against Jefferies Finance LLC (or any successor Controlling Collateral Agent or any of their respective counsel) based on any alleged conflict of interest or breach of duties arising from the Controlling Collateral Agent also serving as the Administrative Agent and Credit Agreement Collateral Agent.

Section 4.04 Reliance by Controlling Collateral Agent. The Controlling Collateral 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 have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Controlling Collateral 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. The Controlling Collateral Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may include, but shall not be limited to, counsel for the Borrower or counsel for the Applicable Authorized Representative), 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.

Section 4.05 Delegation of Duties. The Controlling Collateral Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other First-Lien Security Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Controlling Collateral Agent. The Controlling Collateral 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 Affiliates. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Affiliates of the Controlling Collateral Agent and any such sub-agent.

Section 4.06 Non Reliance on Controlling Collateral Agent and Other First- Lien Secured Parties. Each First-Lien Secured Party acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Controlling Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or any other First-Lien Secured Party or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Secured Credit Documents. Each First-Lien Secured Party also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Controlling Collateral Agent, any Authorized Representative or any other First-Lien Secured Party or any of their Affiliates and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Secured Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, except as expressly provided in the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) and in Section 3.1(e), the sole right of the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral is to hold a Lien on the Common Collateral or such other collateral in respect of the applicable Second Priority Claims pursuant to the Second Priority Documents, as applicable, for the period and to the extent granted therein and to receive a share of the proceeds thereof, if any, after the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred.

c.Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) above and Section 3.1(e) below, (i) each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that no Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party will take any action that would hinder any exercise of remedies undertaken by the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties with respect to the Common Collateral or any other collateral under the Senior Lender Documents, including any sale, lease, exchange, transfer or other disposition of the Common Collateral or such other collateral, whether by foreclosure or otherwise, and (ii) each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, hereby waives any and all rights it or any Second Priority Secured Party may have as a junior lien creditor or otherwise to object to the manner in which any Senior Representative or the Senior Secured Parties seek to enforce or collect the Senior Lender Claims or the Liens granted in any of the Senior Lender Collateral, regardless of whether any action or failure to act by or on behalf of any Senior Representative or Senior Secured Parties is adverse to the interests of the Second Priority Secured Parties.

d.Each Second Priority Representative hereby acknowledges and agrees that no covenant, agreement or restriction contained in any applicable Second Priority Document shall be deemed to restrict in any way the rights and remedies of the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties with respect to the Senior Lender Collateral as set forth in this Agreement and the Senior Lender Documents.

e.Each party hereto agrees that the Second Priority Representatives may exercise any or all of such rights, powers, or remedies after a period of at least 180 days has elapsed since the later of: (i) the date on which a Second Priority Representative declared the existence of an “Event of Default” under the applicable Second Lien Credit Agreement, accelerated (to the extent such amount was not already due and owing) the payment of the principal amount of all Obligations owing under the Second Lien Credit Agreement, and demanded payment thereof and (ii) the date on which the Senior Representatives have received notice thereof from such Second Priority Representatives; provided, further, however, that neither any Second Priority Representative nor any other Second Priority Secured Party shall exercise any rights or remedies with respect to the Common Collateral if, notwithstanding the expiration of such 180-day period, the Senior Representatives or the other Senior Secured Parties (A) shall have commenced, whether before or after the expiration of such 180-day period, and be diligently pursuing the exercise of their rights, powers, or remedies with respect to all or any material portion of the Common Collateral (prompt written notice of such exercise to be given to the Second Priority Representatives), or (B) shall have been stayed by operation of law or any court order from pursuing any such exercise of remedies (the period during which the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties may not pursuant to this Section 3.1 exercise any rights, powers, or remedies with respect to the Common Collateral, the “Standstill Period”).

f.Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, following (i) the acceleration of any Indebtedness constituting Senior Lender Claims or (ii) the commencement of an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, the Second Priority Secured Parties may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to the Borrower and the applicable Senior Representative, require the Senior Secured Parties to transfer and assign to the Second Priority Secured Parties, without warranty or representation or recourse, all (but not less than all) of the Senior Lender Claims that have been accelerated; provided that (x) such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other governmental authority having jurisdiction, and (y) the Second Priority Secured Parties shall have paid to the applicable Senior Representative, for the account of the applicable Senior Secured Parties, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to 100% of the principal of such Indebtedness plus all accrued and unpaid interest thereon plus all accrued and unpaid fees plus all the other Senior Lender Claims under the applicable Senior Lender Documents then outstanding, plus any amounts required to cash collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit to the extent required under the applicable Senior Lender Documents. In order to effectuate the foregoing, the Senior Representatives shall calculate, upon the written request of the Second Priority Representatives from time to time, the amount in cash that would be necessary so to purchase the applicable Senior Lender Claims under the applicable Senior Lender Documents.

3.2Cooperation. Subject to the proviso in clause (ii) of Section 3.1(a) and Section 3.1(e), each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that, unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, it will not commence, or join with any Person (other than the Senior Secured Parties and the Senior Representatives upon the request thereof) in commencing, any enforcement, collection, execution, levy or foreclosure action or proceeding with respect to any Lien held by it in the Common Collateral or any other collateral under any of the applicable Second Priority Documents or otherwise in respect of the applicable Second Priority Claims relating to the Common Collateral.

3.3Actions Upon Breach. If any Second Priority Secured Party, in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, in any way takes, or attempts or threatens to take, any action with respect to the Common Collateral (including any attempt to realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), this Agreement shall create an irrebuttable presumption and admission by such Second Priority Secured Party that relief against such Second Priority Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other appropriate equitable relief is necessary to prevent irreparable harm to the Senior Secured Parties, it being understood and agreed by the Second Priority Representatives on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party that (i) the Senior Secured Parties’ damages from its actions may at that time be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and (ii) each Second Priority Secured Party waives any defense that the Grantors and/or the Senior Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damage and/or be made whole by the awarding of damages.

Section 4.Payments.

4.1Application of Proceeds. So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, the Common Collateral and any other collateral in respect of the Second Priority Claims or proceeds thereof received in connection with the sale or other disposition of, or collection on, such Common Collateral or other collateral upon the exercise of remedies as a secured party, shall be applied by the Senior Representatives to the Senior Lender Claims in such order as specified in the relevant Senior Lender Documents until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred. Upon the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, subject to Section 5.6 hereof, the Senior Representatives shall deliver promptly to the Second Priority Representatives any Common Collateral or proceeds thereof held by it in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct to be applied by the Second Priority Representatives ratably to the Second Priority Claims in such order as specified in the Second Priority Documents.

4.2Payments Over. So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, and whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has been commenced by or against the Borrower

or any Grantor, (a) any Common Collateral or other collateral in respect of the Second Priority Claims or proceeds thereof received by any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy (including setoff or recoupment) or any enforcement or realization of the Common Collateral (whether such enforcement or realization of is in accordance with or in contravention of this Agreement), or any payments or other amounts received in connection with the exercise of such enforcement in contravention of this Agreement and anything received in respect of any Second Priority Secured Party’s claim and (b) any distributions of any money or other property in respect of the Common Collateral or proceeds thereof or any other distribution of any kind whatsoever (including by way of setoff or recoupment) in respect of any obligations owed to any Second Priority Secured Party not permitted to be received by or distributed to any Second Priority Secured Party pursuant to this Agreement shall, in each case, be segregated and held in trust for the benefit of and forthwith paid over to the Senior Representatives (and/or their designees) for the benefit of the Senior Secured Parties in the same form as received, with any necessary endorsements or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. Each of the Second Priority Representatives, for itself and on behalf of each Second Priority Secured Party it represents, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Senior Representative and any officer or agent of the foregoing, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Second Priority Representative or such Second Priority Debt Party or in the Senior Representative’s own name, from time to time in the Senior Representative’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 4.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 4.1 including any endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release. This authorization is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable.

Section 5.Other Agreements.

5.1Releases.

a.If, at any time any Grantor or the holder of any Senior Lender Claim delivers notice to each Second Priority Representative that any specified Common Collateral (including all or substantially all of the equity interests of a Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries) (including for such purpose, in the case of the sale of equity interests in any Subsidiary, any Common Collateral held by such Subsidiary or any direct or indirect Subsidiary thereof) is sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of:

i.by the owner of such Common Collateral in a transaction permitted under the First Lien Credit Agreement, each other Senior Lender Document (if any), the Second Lien Credit Agreement and each other Second Priority Document (if any); or

ii.during the existence of any Event of Default under (and as defined in) any Senior Lender Document by any Senior Representative in connection with the exercise of its rights or remedies under the applicable Senior Lender Document; or

iii.in connection with any sale or disposition of such Common Collateral free and clear of Liens or claims under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code,

then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of the Second Priority Secured Parties upon such Collateral will automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens on such Collateral securing Senior Lender Claims are released and discharged. Upon delivery to each Second Priority Representative of a notice from the Senior Representatives stating that any release of Liens by the Senior Representatives securing or supporting the Senior Lender Claims has become effective (or shall become effective upon each Second Priority Representative’s release), each Second Priority Representative will promptly execute and deliver such instruments, releases, termination statements or other documents confirming such release on customary terms at the expense of the Borrower. In the case of the sale of all or substantially all of the capital stock of a Grantor or any of its Subsidiaries, the guarantee in favor of the Second Priority Secured Parties, if any, made by such Grantor or Subsidiary will automatically be released and discharged as and when, but only to the extent, the guarantee by such Grantor or Subsidiary of Senior Lender Claims is released and discharged.

b.Each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Senior Representatives and any officer or agent of the Senior Representatives, with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of each Second Priority Representative or such holder or in each Senior Representative’s own name, from time to time in each Senior Representative’s discretion, for the purpose of carrying out the terms of this Section 5.1, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments that may be necessary or desirable to accomplish the purposes of this Section 5.1, including any termination statements, endorsements or other instruments of transfer or release.

c.Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each Second Priority Representative, for itself and on behalf of each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, hereby consents to the application, whether prior to or after a default, of proceeds of Common Collateral or other collateral to the repayment of Senior Lender Claims pursuant to the Senior Lender Documents; provided that nothing in this Section 5.1(c) shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of the Second Priority Representatives or the Second Priority Secured Parties to receive proceeds in connection with the Second Priority Claims not otherwise in contravention of this Agreement.

5.2Insurance. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties shall have the sole and exclusive right, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Lender Documents, to adjust settlement for any insurance policy covering the Common Collateral or any other collateral in respect of the Second Priority Claims in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Common Collateral or such other collateral. Unless and until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, all proceeds of any such policy and any such award if in respect of the Common Collateral or such other collateral shall be paid, subject to the rights of the Grantors under the Senior Lender Documents, (a) first, prior to the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, to the Senior Representatives for the benefit of Senior Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Senior Lender Documents, (b) second, after the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, to the Second Priority Representatives for the benefit of the Second Priority Secured Parties pursuant to the terms of the applicable Second Priority Documents and (c) third, if no Second Priority Claims are outstanding, to the owner of the subject property, such other person as may be entitled thereto or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. If any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such award in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Senior Representatives in accordance with the terms of Section 4.2.

5.3Matters Relating to the Loan Documents.

a.The Senior Lender Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, waived, supplemented, otherwise modified or Refinanced from time to time in accordance with their terms, and the First Lien Credit Agreement may be replaced, renewed, extended or Refinanced, in each case without the prior written consent of any Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Secured Party; provided, however, that (x) the holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves in writing to the terms of this Agreement and (y) any such amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall not, without the consent of the Second Priority Representatives, (1) prohibit the scheduled payment of principal or interest under the Second Lien Credit Agreement when due or (2) add any direct prohibition on the incurrence, securing or guaranteeing of Second Priority Secured Obligations that is more restrictive as to any Grantor than those contained in the Senior Lender Documents as of the date hereof.

b.The Second Priority Documents may be amended, restated, amended and restated, waived, supplemented, otherwise modified or Refinanced from time to time in accordance with their terms and the Second Lien Credit Agreement may be replaced, renewed, extended or Refinanced, in each case without the prior written consent of any Senior Representative or Senior Priority Secured Party; provided, however, that (x) the holders of such Refinancing debt bind themselves in writing to the terms of this

Agreement and (y) any such amendment, restatement, amendment and restatement, supplement, modification or Refinancing shall not, without the consent of the Senior Representatives, (1) prohibit the scheduled payment of principal or interest under the First Lien Credit Agreement when due or (2) add any direct prohibition on the incurrence, securing or guaranteeing of Senior Secured Obligations that is more restrictive as to any Grantor than those contained in the Second Priority Documents as of the date hereof.

c.So long as the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has not occurred, without the prior written consent of the Senior Representatives, no Second Priority Collateral Document may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement or modification, or the terms of any new Second Priority Collateral Document, would be prohibited by any of the terms of this Agreement. Each Second Priority Representative agrees that each applicable Second Priority Collateral Document shall include the following language (or language to similar effect approved by the Senior Representatives):

“Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (i) the liens and security interests granted to the applicable Second Priority Representative pursuant to this agreement are expressly subject and subordinate to the liens and security interests granted to Jefferies Finance LLC, as collateral agent (and its permitted successors), for the benefit of the lenders referred to below, pursuant to the First Lien Collateral Agreement dated as of September [•], 2018 (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time) and the other Senior Representatives, if any from the Borrower and the other “Grantors” referred to therein, in favor of Jefferies Finance LLC, as collateral agent, and the other Senior Representatives, if any, pursuant to the below-defined Intercreditor Agreement, and (ii) the exercise of any right or remedy by the applicable Second Priority Representative hereunder is subject to the limitations and provisions of the [Intercreditor Agreement dated as of [_____] (as amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Intercreditor Agreement”), by and among Jefferies Finance LLC, as Senior Representative, [__________], as Second Lien Agent, and other agents, if any, the Borrower and the subsidiaries party thereto]. In the event of any conflict between the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement and the terms of this agreement, the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement shall govern.”

d.In the event that any Senior Representative or the Senior Secured Parties under the First Lien Credit Agreement or, if there is no First Lien Credit Agreement, any other Senior Secured Parties, enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of or replace any of the Senior Collateral Documents for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any departures from any provisions of, any Senior Collateral Document or changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Borrower or any other Grantor thereunder (including the release of any Liens in Senior Lender Collateral), then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable provision of each Comparable Second Priority Collateral Document without the consent of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party and without any action by any Second Priority Representative, the Borrower or any other Grantor; provided, that such amendment, waiver or consent may not materially adversely affect the rights of the Second Priority Secured Parties or the interests of the Second Priority Secured Parties in the Second Priority Collateral unless the rights and interests of all other creditors of the Borrower or such Grantor, as the case may be, that have a security interest in the affected collateral are affected in a like or similar manner (without regard to the fact that the Lien of such Senior Collateral Document is senior to the Lien of the Comparable Second Priority Collateral Document). The applicable Senior Representative shall give written notice of such amendment, waiver or consent to the Second Priority Representatives; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or consent with respect to the provisions of any Second Priority Collateral Document as set forth in this Section 5.3(d).

5.4Rights As Unsecured Creditors. To the extent not in contravention of any express provision of this Agreement, and subject to the obligations of the Second Priority Representatives and Second Priority Secured Parties under Section 4.1, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties may exercise rights and remedies as an unsecured creditor against the Borrower or any Subsidiary that has guaranteed the Second Priority Claims in accordance with the terms of the applicable Second Priority Documents and applicable law, in each case to the extent not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement. To the extent not in contravention of any express provision of this Agreement, nothing in this Agreement shall prohibit the receipt by any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party of the required payments of interest and principal so long as such receipt is not the direct or indirect result of (a) the exercise by any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party of rights or remedies as a secured creditor in respect of Common Collateral or other collateral or (b) enforcement in contravention of this Agreement of any Lien in respect of Second Priority Claims held by any of them. In the event any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party becomes a judgment lien creditor or other secured creditor in respect of Common Collateral or other collateral as a result of its enforcement of its rights as an unsecured creditor in respect of Second Priority Claims or otherwise, such judgment or other lien shall be subordinated to the Liens securing Senior Lender Claims on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims are so subordinated to such Liens securing Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement impairs or otherwise adversely affects any rights or remedies any Senior Representative or the Senior Secured Parties may have with respect to the Senior Lender Collateral.

5.5Senior Representatives as Gratuitous Bailees for Perfection.

a.Each of the Senior Representatives agrees to hold the Pledged Collateral that is part of the Common Collateral in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for each Second Priority Representative and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Pledged Collateral pursuant to the Second Priority Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5 (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8‑106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC).

b.In the event that any Senior Representative (or its agent or bailee) has Lien filings against Intellectual Property that is part of the Common Collateral that are necessary for the perfection of Liens in such Common Collateral, such Senior Representative agrees to hold such Liens as gratuitous bailee for each Second Priority Representative and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Liens pursuant to the Second Priority Collateral Documents, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 5.5.

c.Except as otherwise specifically provided herein (including Sections 3.1 and 4.1), until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, the Senior Representatives shall be entitled to deal with the Pledged Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Senior Lender Documents as if the Liens under the Second Priority Collateral Documents did not exist. The rights of the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to such Pledged Collateral shall at all times be subject to the terms of this Agreement.

d.The Senior Representatives shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party to assure that the Pledged Collateral is genuine or owned by the Grantors or to protect or preserve rights or benefits of any Person or any rights pertaining to the Common Collateral except as expressly set forth in this Section 5.5. The duties or responsibilities of the Senior Representatives under this Section 5.5 shall be limited solely to holding the Pledged Collateral as gratuitous bailee for each Second Priority Representative for purposes of perfecting the Lien held by the Second Priority Secured Parties.

e.The Senior Representatives shall not have by reason of the Second Priority Collateral Documents or this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party and the Second Priority Representatives and the Second

Priority Secured Parties hereby waive and release the Senior Representatives from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to each Senior Representative’s roles under this Section 5.5, as agent and gratuitous bailee with respect to the Common Collateral.

f.Upon the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, the Senior Representatives shall deliver to the Second Priority Representatives, to the extent that they are legally permitted to do so, the remaining Pledged Collateral (if any) together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow the Second Priority Representatives to obtain control of such Pledged Collateral) or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct. The Borrower shall take such further action as is required to effectuate the transfer contemplated hereby and shall indemnify the Senior Representatives for loss or damage suffered by any Senior Representative as a result of such transfer except for loss or damage suffered by a Senior Representative as a result of its own willful misconduct, gross negligence or bad faith. The Senior Representatives have no obligation to follow instructions from any Second Priority Representative in contravention of this Agreement.

g.Neither the Senior Representatives nor the Senior Secured Parties shall be required to marshal any present or future collateral security for the Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ obligations to the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties under the Senior Lender Documents or any assurance of payment in respect thereof or to resort to such collateral security or other assurances of payment in any particular order, and all of their rights in respect of such collateral security or any assurance of payment in respect thereof shall be cumulative and in addition to all other rights, however existing or arising.

5.6Reinstatement. If, at any time after the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, the Borrower incur and designate any Senior Lender Claims, then such Discharge of Senior Lender Claims shall automatically be deemed not to have occurred for all purposes of this Agreement (other than with respect to any actions taken by a Senior Representative or otherwise prior to the date of such designation as a result of the occurrence of such prior Discharge of Senior Lender Claims), and the applicable agreement governing such Senior Lender Claims shall automatically be treated as a Senior Lender Document for all purposes of this Agreement, including for purposes of the Lien priorities and rights in respect of Common Collateral set forth herein and the granting by the Senior Representatives of amendments, waivers and consents hereunder. Upon receipt of notice of such designation (including the identity of the new Senior Representative(s)), each Second Priority Representative shall promptly (i) enter into such documents and agreements (at the expense of the Borrower), including amendments or supplements to this Agreement, as the Borrower or such new Senior Representative(s) shall reasonably request in writing in order to provide the new Senior Representative(s) the rights of the Senior Representatives contemplated hereby and (ii) to the extent then held by any Second Priority Representative, deliver to the Senior Representative(s) the Pledged Collateral that is Common Collateral together with any necessary endorsements (or otherwise allow such Senior Representative(s) to obtain possession or control of such Pledged Collateral); provided that any costs or other expenses incurred in connection therewith shall be the exclusive responsibility of the Grantors.

5.7Future Debt Facilities. To the extent, but only to the extent, permitted by the provisions of the Senior Lender Documents and the Second Priority Documents, any Grantor may incur or issue and sell one or more series or classes of Future Senior Indebtedness and one or more series or classes of Future Second Lien Indebtedness. Any such additional class or series of Future Second Lien Indebtedness (the “Second Lien Class Debt”) may be secured by a Lien on the Second Priority Collateral, in each case under and pursuant to the relevant Second Priority Documents for such Second Lien Class Debt, if and subject to the condition that the Representative of any such Second Lien Class Debt (each, a “Second Lien Class Debt Representative”), acting on behalf of the holders of such Second Lien Class Debt (such Representative and holders in respect of any Second Lien Class Debt being referred to as the “Second Lien Class Debt Parties”), becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (a) through (c), as applicable, of the immediately succeeding paragraph. Any such additional class or series of Future Senior Indebtedness (the “First Lien Class Debt”; and the First Lien Class Debt and Second Lien Class Debt, collectively, the “Class Debt”) may be secured by a Lien on the Senior Lender Collateral, in each case under and pursuant to the relevant Senior Lender Documents for such First Lien Class Debt, if and subject to the condition that

the Representative of any such First Lien Class Debt (each, a “First Lien Class Debt Representative”; and the First Lien Class Debt Representatives and Second Lien Class Debt Representatives, collectively, the “Class Debt Representatives”), acting on behalf of the holders of such First Lien Class Debt (such Representative and holders in respect of any such First Lien Class Debt being referred to as the “First Lien Class Debt Parties”; and the First Lien Class Debt Parties and Second Lien Class Debt Parties, collectively, the “Class Debt Parties”), becomes a party to this Agreement by satisfying the conditions set forth in clauses (a) through (c), as applicable, of the immediately succeeding paragraph.

In order for a Class Debt Representative to become a party to this Agreement:

a.such Class Debt Representative shall have executed and delivered a Joinder Agreement substantially in the form of Annex I (with such changes as may be reasonably approved by each Senior Representative and Class Debt Representative) pursuant to which it becomes a Representative hereunder, and the Class Debt in respect of which such Class Debt Representative is the Representative and the related Class Debt Parties become subject hereto and bound hereby;

b.Holdings shall have delivered to each Senior Representative an Officers’ Certificate designating such indebtedness as Future Senior Indebtedness or Future Second Lien Indebtedness hereunder, certifying that the incurrence of such indebtedness and its designation as such hereunder is permitted by each Senior Lender Document and each Second Priority Document, that the conditions set forth in this Section 5.7 are satisfied with respect to such Class Debt and, attaching true and complete copies of each of the Second Priority Documents or Senior Lender Documents, as applicable, relating to such Class Debt, certified as being true and correct by an authorized officer of Holdings; and

c.the Second Priority Documents or Senior Lender Documents, as applicable, relating to such Class Debt shall provide that each Class Debt Party with respect to such Class Debt will be subject to and bound by the provisions of this Agreement in its capacity as a holder of such Class Debt.

Section 6.Insolvency or Liquidation Proceedings.

6.1Financing Issues.

(a) If the Borrower or any other Grantor shall be subject to any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding and the Senior Representatives shall move for the approval of the use of cash collateral or to permit the Borrower or any other Grantor to obtain financing under Section 363 or Section 364 of Title 11 of the United States Code (“DIP Financing”), then each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that it will raise no objection to, and will not support any objection to, and will not otherwise contest (a) such use of cash collateral or DIP Financing and will not request adequate protection or any other relief in connection therewith (except to the extent permitted by Section 6.3) and, to the extent the Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims under the First Lien Credit Agreement or, if no First Lien Credit Agreement exists, under the other Senior Lender Documents are subordinated or pari passu with such DIP Financing, will subordinate its Liens in the Common Collateral and any other collateral to such DIP Financing (and all Obligations relating thereto) on the same basis as the other Liens securing the Second Priority Claims are subordinated to Liens securing Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement, (b) any motion for relief from the automatic stay or from any injunction against foreclosure or enforcement in respect of Senior Lender Claims made by any Senior Representative or any holder of Senior Lender Claims, (c) any lawful exercise by any holder of Senior Lender Claims of the right to credit bid Senior Lender Claims at any sale in foreclosure of Senior Lender Collateral, (d) any other request for judicial relief made in any court by any holder of Senior Lender Claims relating to the lawful enforcement of any Lien on Senior Lender Collateral or (e) any order relating to a sale of Senior Lender Collateral for which the Senior Representatives have consented that provides, to the extent the sale is to be free and clear of Liens, that the Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims and the Second Priority Claims will attach to the proceeds of the sale on the same basis of priority as the Liens securing the Senior Lender Collateral do to the Liens securing the Second Priority Collateral in accordance with this Agreement.

a.Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable provisions of Section 6.1(a) shall only be binding on the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to any DIP Financing that is secured by Liens on the Common Collateral to the extent the amount of such DIP Financing does not exceed the sum of the aggregate amount of Senior Lender Claims outstanding under the Senior Lender Documents immediately prior to the commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, including the face amount of any letters of credit issued (and unreimbursed drawings under letters of credit issued), plus any prepayment premium that becomes due and payable upon acceleration or commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding plus 20% of the amounts set forth in this Section 6.1(b).

6.2Relief from the Automatic Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, agrees that none of them shall seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Common Collateral or any other collateral, without the prior written consent of the Senior Representatives.

6.3Adequate Protection.

(a) Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and the applicable Second Priority Secured Parties, agrees that none of them shall be entitled to contest and none of them shall contest (or support any other Person contesting) (but instead shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right):

i.any request by any Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties for adequate protection; or

ii.any objection by any Senior Representative or Senior Secured Party to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on the Senior Representative or the other Senior Secured Party claiming a lack of adequate protection with respect to the Senior Lender Collateral.

(b) Consistent with the foregoing provisions in this Section 6.3, and except as otherwise provided herein, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding no Second Priority Representative or Second Priority Secured Party shall be entitled (and each Second Priority Representative and Second Priority Secured Party shall be deemed to have hereby irrevocably, absolutely, and unconditionally waived any right):

iii.to seek or otherwise be granted any type of adequate protection with respect to its interests in the Senior Lender Collateral; provided, however, subject to this Section 6, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties may seek and obtain adequate protection in the form of an additional or replacement Lien on Common Collateral so long as (i) the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties have been granted adequate protection in the form of a replacement lien on such Common Collateral, and (ii) any such Lien on Senior Lender Collateral (and on any Common Collateral granted as adequate protection for the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties in respect of their interest in such Senior Lender Collateral) is subordinated to the Liens of the Senior Representatives in such Common Collateral on the same basis as the other Liens of the Second Priority Representative on Senior Lender Collateral; and

iv.to seek or otherwise be granted any adequate protection payments with respect to its interests in the Common Collateral from Proceeds of Senior Lender Collateral.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, the applicable provisions of this Section 6.3 shall only be binding on the Second Priority Secured Parties with respect to any DIP Financing that is secured by Liens on the Common Collateral to the extent the amount of such DIP Financing does not exceed the sum of the aggregate amount of Senior Lender Claims outstanding under the Senior Lender Documents immediately prior to the commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, including the face amount of any letters of credit issued (and unreimbursed drawings under letters of credit issued), plus any prepayment

premium that becomes due and payable upon acceleration or commencement of the Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding plus 15% of the amounts set forth in this Section 6.3(c).

(d) The Second Priority Secured Parties agree that they will not request adequate protection or seek any other relief in connection therewith (except as expressly agreed in writing by the Senior Representatives or to the extent permitted by this Section 6.3).

6.4Avoidance Issues. If any Senior Secured Party is required in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise pay to the estate of the Borrower or any other Grantor (or any trustee, receiver or similar person therefor), because the payment of such amount was declared to be fraudulent or preferential in any respect or for any other reason, any amount (a “Recovery”), whether received as proceeds of security, enforcement of any right of setoff or otherwise, then as among the parties hereto the Senior Lender Claims shall be deemed to be reinstated to the extent of such Recovery and to be outstanding as if such payment had not occurred and the Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to a Discharge of Senior Lender Claims with respect to all such recovered amounts and shall have all rights hereunder until such time. If this Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Recovery, this Agreement shall be reinstated in full force and effect, and such prior termination shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair or otherwise affect the obligations of the parties hereto.

6.5Application. This Agreement, which the parties hereto expressly acknowledge is a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Law, shall be applicable prior to and after the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. All references herein to any Grantor shall apply to any trustee for such Person and such Person as debtor in possession. The relative rights as to the Common Collateral and other collateral and proceeds thereof shall continue after the filing thereof on the same basis as prior to the date of the petition, subject to any court order approving the financing of, or use of cash collateral by, any Grantor.

6.6Waivers. Until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims has occurred, each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, (a) will not assert or enforce any claim under Section 506(c) of the United States Bankruptcy Law senior to or on a parity with the Liens securing the Senior Lender Claims for costs or expenses of preserving or disposing of any Common Collateral or other collateral, and (b) waives any claim it may now or hereafter have arising out of the election by any Senior Secured Party of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Law.

6.7Separate Grants of Liens. Each Senior Secured Party and each Second Priority Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Lender Documents and the Second Priority Documents constitute two separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii) because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Common Collateral, the Senior Lender Claims are fundamentally different from the Second Priority Claims and must be separately classified in any plan of reorganization (or other plan of similar effect under any Bankruptcy Laws) proposed or adopted in an Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. To further effectuate the intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held that the claims of the Senior Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties in respect of the Common Collateral constitute only one secured claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Senior Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of Senior Lender Claims and Second Priority Claims against the Grantors, with the effect being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Senior Lender Collateral or Second Priority Collateral is sufficient, the Senior Secured Parties shall be entitled to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, pre-petition interest and other claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest that is available from the Common Collateral for each of the Senior Secured Parties before any distribution is made in respect of the claims held by the Second Priority Secured Parties from such Common Collateral, with the Second Priority Secured

Parties hereby acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Secured Parties amounts otherwise received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries.

6.8Post-Petition Interest. Neither the Second Priority Representative nor any other Second Priority Secured Party shall oppose or seek to challenge any claim by the Senior Representative or any Senior Secured Party for allowance in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding of Senior Secured Obligations consisting of post-petition interest, fees or expenses.

6.9Plan of Reorganization. As set forth in Section 6.7, Each of the Senior Secured Parties and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled to vote as separate classes with respect to any plan of reorganization or arrangement in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. The Second Priority Secured Parties, in such capacity, may only vote to accept a plan of reorganization in connection with any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding if such plan of reorganization is a consistent with the terms of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or of the other provisions of this Agreement, any vote to accept, and any other act to support the confirmation or approval of, any plan of reorganization which is not consistent with this Agreement by any Second Priority Secured Party, in such capacity, shall be inconsistent with and accordingly, a violation of the terms of this Agreement, and the Senior Representatives shall be entitled (and are hereby authorized by each Second Priority Secured Party) to have any such vote to and any such support of any such non-conforming plan of reorganization withdrawn.

6.10Reorganization Securities. In connection with a confirmed plan of reorganization, if in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding, debt securities or obligations of the reorganized debtor secured by Liens upon any property of the reorganized debtor, or any equity securities in the reorganized debt, are distributed pursuant to such confirmed plan of reorganization or similar dispositive restructuring plan, then, the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be permitted to receive or retain such debt securities or obligations, or equity securities, of the Obligors to be distributed to them under any such confirmed plan of reorganization or other dispositive restructuring plan on account of or otherwise by virtue of the Common Collateral (collectively, a “Plan Distribution”), so long as any Lien granted on the Common Collateral (or any other assets of an Obligor) to secure such Plan Distributions to the Second Priority Secured Parties shall be junior in priority to any Lien granted on the Common Collateral to secure any Plan Distribution to the Senior Secured Parties under any such plan of reorganization or other dispositive restructuring plan to the same extent as the Lien on the Common Collateral securing Second Priority Claims is junior in priority to the Lien on the Common Collateral secured Senior Lender Claims and such Liens shall otherwise be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement (or an analogous agreement); provided, however, that absent the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims, any Plan Distribution received by a Second Priority Secured Party under a plan of reorganization which the class of Senior Lender Claims has voted to reject (and which was implemented despite such rejection), or which does not satisfy the criteria set forth in this Section 6.10 (in the case of debt securities or obligations), shall be turned over to the Senior Representative for application in accordance with Section 4.1 until the occurrence of the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims.

Section 7.Reliance; Waivers; etc.

7.1Reliance. The consent by the Senior Secured Parties to the execution and delivery of the Second Priority Documents to which the Senior Secured Parties have consented and all loans and other extensions of credit made or deemed made on and after the date hereof by the Senior Secured Parties to Holdings or any Subsidiary shall be deemed to have been given and made in reliance upon this Agreement. Each Second Priority Representative, on behalf of itself and each applicable Second Priority Secured Party, acknowledges that it and the applicable Second Priority Secured Parties are not entitled to rely on any credit decision or other decisions made by the Senior Representatives or any Senior Secured Party in taking or not taking any action under the applicable Second Priority Document or this Agreement.

7.2No Warranties or Liability. Neither the Senior Representatives nor any Senior Secured Party shall have been deemed to have made any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the execution, validity, legality, completeness, collectability or enforceability of any of the

Senior Lender Documents, the ownership of any Common Collateral or the perfection or priority of any Liens thereon. The Senior Secured Parties will be entitled to manage and supervise their respective loans and extensions of credit under the Senior Lender Documents in accordance with law and as they may otherwise, in their sole discretion, deem appropriate, and the Senior Secured Parties may manage their loans and extensions of credit without regard to any rights or interests that any Second Priority Representative or any of the Second Priority Secured Parties have in the Common Collateral or otherwise, except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. Neither the Senior Representatives nor any Senior Secured Party shall have any duty to any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party to act or refrain from acting in a manner that allows, or results in, the occurrence or continuance of an event of default or default under any agreements with the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof (including the Second Priority Documents), regardless of any knowledge thereof that they may have or be charged with. Except as expressly set forth in this Agreement, the Senior Representatives, the Senior Secured Parties, the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties have not otherwise made to each other, nor do they hereby make to each other, any warranties, express or implied, nor do they assume any liability to each other with respect to (a) the enforceability, validity, value or collectability of any of the Second Priority Claims, the Senior Lender Claims or any guarantee or security which may have been granted to any of them in connection therewith, (b) the Borrower’ title to or right to transfer any of the Common Collateral or (c) any other matter except as expressly set forth in this Agreement.

7.3Obligations Unconditional. All rights, interests, agreements and obligations of the Senior Representatives and the Senior Secured Parties, and the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties, respectively, hereunder shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:

a.any lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Lender Documents or any Second Priority Documents;

b.any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other terms of, all or any of the Senior Lender Claims or Second Priority Claims, or any amendment or waiver or other modification, including any increase in the amount thereof, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, of the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement or any other Senior Lender Document or of the terms of the Second Lien Credit Agreement or any other Second Priority Document;

c.any exchange of any security interest in any Common Collateral or any other collateral, or any amendment, waiver or other modification, whether in writing or by course of conduct or otherwise, of all or any of the Senior Lender Claims or Second Priority Claims or any guarantee thereof;

d.the commencement of any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding in respect of the Borrower or any other Grantor; or

e.any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any other Grantor in respect of the Senior Lender Claims, or of any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party in respect of this Agreement.

Section 8.Miscellaneous.

8.1Conflicts. Subject to Section 8.17, the event of any conflict between the provisions of this Agreement and the provisions of any Senior Lender Document or any Second Priority Document, the provisions of this Agreement shall govern.

8.2Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability. Subject to Section 5.6 and Section 6.4, this Agreement shall continue to be effective until the Discharge of Senior Lender Claims shall have occurred or such later time as all the Obligations in respect of the Second Priority Claims shall have been paid in full. This is a continuing agreement of lien subordination and the Senior Secured Parties may continue, at any time and without notice to any Second Priority Representative or any Second Priority Secured Party, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Grantor constituting Senior Lender Claims in reliance hereon. The terms of this Agreement shall survive, and shall continue in full force and effect, in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall

not invalidate the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

8.3Amendments; Waivers.

(a) No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement by any Second Priority Representative or any Senior Representative shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of the party making the same or its authorized agent and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. The Borrower and the other Grantors shall not have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent their rights or obligations are affected.

a.Notwithstanding anything in this Section 8.3 to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended from time to time at the request of the Borrower, at the Borrower’s expense, and without the consent of any Second Priority Representative or any Senior Representative to (i) add other parties holding Future Second Lien Indebtedness or Future Senior Indebtedness (or any agent or trustee therefor) to the extent such Indebtedness (and the Liens thereon) are permitted by the terms of the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement, including pursuant to Section 5.7 by delivery of a Joinder Agreement, (ii) in the case of Future Second Lien Indebtedness, (1) establish that the Lien on the Common Collateral securing such Future Second Lien Indebtedness shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Senior Lender Claims and shall share in the benefits of the Common Collateral equally and ratably with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Second Priority Claims, and (2) provide to the holders of such Future Second Lien Indebtedness (or any agent or trustee thereof) the comparable rights and benefits (including any improved rights and benefits that have been consented to by the Senior Representatives) as are provided to the holders of Second Priority Claims under this Agreement and (iii) in the case of Future Senior Indebtedness, (1) provide that the holders of such Future Senior Indebtedness (or any agent or trustee thereof) shall share in the benefits of the Common Collateral equally and ratably with all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any Senior Lender Claims and provide the comparable rights and benefits as are provided to the holders of Senior Lender Claims under this Agreement and (2) establish that the Liens on the Common Collateral securing the Second Priority Claims shall be junior and subordinate in all respects to all Liens on the Common Collateral securing any such Future Senior Indebtedness to the same extent that the Second Priority Claims are junior and subordinate to the Senior Lender Claims hereunder. Any such additional party and each Second Priority Representative shall be entitled to rely on the determination of officers of the Borrower that such modifications do not violate the First Lien Credit Agreement or the Second Lien Credit Agreement if such determination is set forth in an Officers’ Certificate delivered to such party, each Senior Representative and each Second Priority Representative; provided, however, that such determination will not affect whether or not the Borrower have complied with their undertakings in the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Senior Collateral Documents, the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the Second Priority Collateral Documents or this Agreement.

8.4Information Concerning Financial Condition of the Borrower and the Subsidiaries. Neither the Senior Representatives nor any Senior Secured Party shall have any obligation to the Second Priority Representatives or any Second Priority Secured Party to keep the Second Priority Representatives or any Second Priority Secured Party informed of, and the Second Priority Representatives and the Second Priority Secured Parties shall not be entitled to rely on the Senior Representatives or the Senior Secured Parties with respect to, (a) the financial condition of Holdings and the Subsidiaries and all endorsers and/or guarantors of the Second Priority Claims or the Senior Lender Claims and (b) all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Second Priority Claims or the Senior Lender Claims.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any person to whom a Lender assigns or otherwise transfers all or any portion of the Senior Lender Claims or the Second Priority Claims, as applicable, shall become vested with all the rights and obligations in respect thereof granted to the Senior Secured Parties or Second Priority Secured Parties, respectively, without any further consent or action of the other Senior Secured Parties or Second Priority Secured Parties, respectively.

September 25, 2018

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, each of the entities set forth on the signature pages hereto in its capacity as a borrower or obligor with respect to any loans and advances described below (together with their assigns, each a “Payor”), hereby severally, and not jointly, promises to pay to the order of each entity set forth on the signature pages hereto in its capacity as a lender or an obligee with respect to any loans of advance as described below (together with their assigns, each a “Payee”), in lawful money of the United States of America in immediately available funds, at such location as Payee shall from time to time designate, the unpaid principal amount of all loans and advances made by Payee to or on behalf of the applicable Payor and such interest as the parties have determined and established on their respective books and records. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, this Intercompany Note shall evidence all loans and advances from each Payee to each Payor (other than pursuant to that certain Promissory Note, dated as of the Closing Date (the “ACC Note”), by IEA Holdco 1, LLC in favor of American Civil Constructors LLC), regardless of whether evidenced by another note, instrument or writing. Unless otherwise defined herein or in Annex A hereto, all capitalized terms used herein or in Annex A and defined in the Credit Agreement (as defined below) referred to below shall be used herein (or in Annex A) as therein defined.

The principal balance of all loans and advances made by each Payee to each Payor, together with all accrued interest thereon, shall be due and payable in full on demand, unless otherwise agreed in writing by such Payor and Payee, as applicable. Each Payor may prepay all or any part of the principal or accrued interest at any time and from time to time, without premium or penalty. All partial prepayments shall be applied first to accrued and unpaid interest and then to the unpaid principal amount of the loans.

Upon the earlier to occur of (x) commencement of any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of debtors, dissolution, insolvency or liquidation or similar proceeding of any jurisdiction relating to any Payor and (y) any exercise of remedies pursuant to Article X of the Credit Agreement, the unpaid principal amount hereof with respect to the applicable Payor shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or notice of any kind in connection with this Intercompany Note.

All Payors and Payees acknowledge and agree that this Intercompany Note (“Intercompany Note”) is subject to the terms of the Credit Agreement and is to be pledged by each Payee that is a Loan Party pursuant to the Security Agreement. Each Payor hereby acknowledges and agrees that, upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Collateral Agent may exercise all the rights and remedies provided in the Security Agreement to which it is a party with respect to this Intercompany Note.

Each Payee and Payor agrees that any and all claims of such Payee against any Payor that is a Loan Party or any endorser of the true obligations of any Payor that is a Loan Party under this Intercompany Note, or against any of their respective properties, shall be expressly subordinate and junior in right of payment to all Senior Indebtedness on the terms and conditions set forth in Annex A hereto, which Annex A is herein incorporated by reference and made a part hereof as if set forth herein in its entirety.

This Intercompany Note shall be binding upon each Payor and its successors and assigns, and the terms and provisions of this Intercompany Note shall inure to the benefit of each Payee and their respective successors and assigns, including subsequent holders hereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in any other Loan Document or in any other promissory note or other instrument, other than pursuant to the ACC Note, this Intercompany Note (i) replaces and supersedes any and all promissory notes or other instruments which create or evidence any loans or advances made on or before the date hereof by any Payee to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries and (ii) shall not be deemed replaced, superseded or in any way modified by any promissory note or other instrument entered into on or after the date hereof which purports to create or evidence any loan or advance by any Payee to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries unless such replacement or modification is not prohibited under the Credit Agreement in each case, to the extent constituting

Collateral, such promissory note is delivered to the Collateral Agent pursuant to Section 7.08 of the Credit Agreement.

From time to time after the date hereof, additional subsidiaries of Holdings may become parties hereto (as Payor and/or Payee, as the case may be) by executing a counterpart signature page to this Intercompany Note (each additional Subsidiary, an “Additional Party”). Upon delivery of such counterpart signature page to the Payees, notice of which is hereby waived by the other Payors, each Additional Party shall be a Payor and/or a Payee, as the case may be, and shall be as fully a party hereto as if such Additional Party were an original signatory hereof. Each Payor expressly agrees that its obligations arising hereunder shall not be affected or diminished by the addition or release of any other Payor or Payee hereunder. This Intercompany Note shall be fully effective as to any Payor or Payee that is or becomes a party hereto regardless of whether any other person becomes or fails to become or ceases to be a Payor or Payee hereunder.

As used herein, “Credit Agreement” shall mean that certain Credit and Guarantee Agreement, dated as of September 25, 2018, by and among Infrastructure and Energy Alternatives, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Holdings”), IEA Intermediate Holdco, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as Intermediate Holdings, IEA Energy Services LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, as the Borrower, the Subsidiary Guarantors from time to time party thereto, Jefferies Finance LLC, as the Administrative Agent, KeyBank National Association, as the Revolving Agent, Jefferies Finance LLC, as the Collateral Agent and each of the Lenders from time to time party thereto, as it may be amended, restated, refinanced, modified and/or supplemented from time to time.

As used herein, “Senior Indebtedness” shall mean: all Obligations (including, without limitation, (x) all interest accruing after the filing of a petition in bankruptcy or any other act which constitutes a default or event of default pursuant to Section 10.01(f) of the Credit Agreement, at the stated contract rate, regardless of whether allowed or allowable in the respective bankruptcy or other proceeding, and (y) Obligations which, but for the automatic stay under Section 362(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, would become due) and liabilities (including, without limitation, indemnities, fees and interest thereon that are due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Credit Agreement) of each Loan Party (whether as obligor, guarantor or otherwise) to the Secured Parties under the Credit Agreement (other than unasserted contingent indemnification obligations and unasserted expense reimbursement obligations), whether now existing or hereafter incurred under, arising out of or in connection with each Loan Document, Secured Swap Agreement and Secured Cash Management Agreement to which it is at any time a party (including, without limitation, all such obligations and liabilities of each Loan Party under the Credit Agreement (if a party thereto), and under any guarantee by it of obligations pursuant to the Credit Agreement) and the due performance and compliance by each Loan Party with the terms of each such Loan Document, Secured Swap Agreement and Secured Cash Management Agreement; and

All payments under this Intercompany Note shall be made without offset, counterclaim or deduction of any kind. No failure to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any rights hereunder on the part of the holder hereof shall operate as a waiver of such rights.

This Intercompany Note may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in separate counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original and all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of this Intercompany Note by telecopy or other electronic transmission shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Intercompany Note.

THIS Intercompany NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND BE GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK (WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICTS OF LAW PRINCIPLES).

This Intercompany Note (including Annex A hereto) may not be amended or modified (except for the addition of Additional Parties as provided above) as to any Payor or Payee, in each case without the prior written consent in respect of such Payor and/or Payee and the Collateral Agent.

ANNEX A

INTERCOMPANY NOTE

Section 1.01. Subordination of Liabilities. Each Payor that is a Loan Party (each a “Loan Party Payor”), for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Payee likewise covenants and agrees, that the payment of the principal of, and interest on, and all other amounts owing by any Loan Party Payor in respect of, the Intercompany Note (including all loans and advances at any time made to any Loan Party Payor by any Payee) and all other Subordinated Indebtedness (as defined below in Section 1.07) is hereby expressly subordinated, to the extent and in the manner hereinafter set forth, to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness (as defined in the Intercompany Note). The provisions of this Annex A shall con-stitute a continuing offer to all Persons or other entities who, in reliance upon such provisions, become holders of, or continue to hold, Senior Indebtedness, and such provisions are made for the benefit of the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and such holders are hereby made obligees hereunder the same as if their names were written herein as such, and they and/or each of them may proceed to enforce such provisions.

Section 1.02. Loan Party Payors Not to Make Payments with Respect to Note in Certain Circumstances. (a) Upon the maturity of any Senior Indebtedness (including interest there-on or fees or any other amounts owing in respect thereof), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, all such Senior Indebtedness then due and owing shall first be paid in full in cash before any payment of any kind or character (whether in cash, property, securities or otherwise) is made on account of the Subordinated Indebtedness. No Loan Party Payor may, directly or indirectly (and no Person or other entity on behalf of any Loan Party Payor may), make any payment of any Subordinated Indebtedness owing to any Person not a Loan Party and may not acquire all or any part of the Subordinated Indebtedness from any Person not a Loan Party for cash, property or securities until all Senior Indebtedness has been paid in full in cash if any Event of Default (each as defined below) is then in existence or would result therefrom. Each Payee that is not a Loan Party hereby agrees that, so long as any Event of Default exists, it will not ask, demand, sue for, or otherwise take, accept or receive, any amounts owing in respect of Subordinated Indebtedness from any Loan Party Payor. As used herein, the term “Event of Default” shall mean any Event of Default under and as defined in, the relevant documentation governing any Senior Indebtedness and in any event shall include any payment default with respect to any Senior Indebtedness.

(b) In the event that, notwithstanding the provisions of the preceding subsection (a) of this Section 1.02, any payment shall be made on account of the principal of, or interest on, or other amounts otherwise owing in respect of, the Subordinated Indebtedness, at a time when payment is not permitted by the terms of the Intercompany Note or by said subsection (a), such payment shall be held by the relevant Payee, in trust for the benefit of, and shall be paid forthwith over and delivered to, the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives under the agreements pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, as their respective interests may appear, for application pro rata to the payment of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid to the extent necessary

to pay all Senior Indebtedness in full in cash in accordance with the terms of such Senior Indebtedness, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to or for the holders of Senior Indebtedness. Without in any way modify-ing the provisions of this Annex A or affecting the subordination effected hereby if such notice is not given, the Loan Party Payors shall give the Payees prompt written notice of any Event of Default.

Section 1.03. Note Subordinated to Prior Payment of All Senior Indebtedness on Dissolution, Liquidation or Reorganization of Loan Party Payor. Upon any distribution of assets of a Loan Party Payor upon any dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of such Loan Party Payor (whether in bank-ruptcy, insol-vency or receivership proceedings or upon an assign-ment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise):

(a) the holders of all Senior Indebtedness shall first be entitled to receive payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness (including, without limitation, post-petition interest at the rate provided in the documentation with respect to the Senior Indebtedness, whether or not such post-petition interest is an allowed claim against the debtor in any bankruptcy or similar proceeding) before any Payee is entitled to receive any payment of any kind or character on account of the principal of or interest on or any other amount owing in respect of the Subordinated Indebtedness owing by such Loan Party Payor;

(b) any payment or distribution of assets of such Loan Party Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, to which the Payee would be entitled except for the provisions of this Annex A, shall be paid by the liquidating trustee or agent or other Person making such payment or distribution, whether a trustee in bankruptcy, a receiver or liquidating trustee or other trustee or agent, directly to the holders of Senior Indebtedness or their representative or representatives under the agreements pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, to the extent necessary to make payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid, after giving effect to any con-current payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebtedness; and

(c) in the event that, notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 1.03, any payment or distribution of assets of such Loan Party Payor of any kind or character, whether in cash, property or securities, shall be received by any Payee on account of principal of, or interest or other amounts due on, the Subordinated Indebtedness before all Senior Indebtedness is paid in full in cash, such payment or distribution shall be received and held in trust for and shall forthwith be paid over to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness remaining unpaid or their representative or representatives under the agreements pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness may have been issued, for application to the payment of such Senior Indebtedness until all such Senior Indebtedness shall have been paid in full in cash, after giving effect to any concurrent payment or distribution to the holders of such Senior Indebted-ness.

If any Payee does not file a proper claim or proof of debt in the form required in any proceeding or other action referred to in the introduction paragraph of this Section 1.03 prior to 30 days before the expiration of the time to file such claim or claims, then any of the holders of the Senior Indebtedness or their representative is hereby authorized to file an appropriate claim for and on behalf of such Payee.

Without in any way modifying the provisions of this Annex A or affecting the subordination effected hereby if such notice is not given, each Loan Party Payor shall give prompt written notice to the holder of the Note of any dissolu-tion, winding up, liquidation or reorganization of a Loan Party Payor (whether in bankruptcy, insolvency or receivership proceed-ings or upon assignment for the benefit of creditors or otherwise).

Section 1.04. Subrogation. Subject to the prior payment in full in cash of all Senior Indebted-ness, the respective Payee shall be subrogated to the rights of the holders of Senior Indebtedness to receive payments or distributions of assets of the Payor ap-plicable to the Senior Indebtedness until all amounts owing on the Subordinated Indebtedness owing to such Payee shall be paid in full, and for the purpose of such subrogation no payments or distribu-tions to the holders of the Senior Indebtedness by or on behalf of the respective Loan Party Payor or by or on behalf of the respective Payee by virtue of this Annex A which otherwise would have been made to such Payee shall, as between the Loan Party Payor, its creditors other than the holders of Senior Indebtedness, and the respective Payee, be deemed to be payment by the Payor to or on account of the Senior Indebt-edness, it being understood that the provi-

sions of this Annex A are and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Payees, on the one hand, and the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, on the other hand.

Section 1.05. Obligation of the Payor Uncondi-tional. Nothing contained in this Annex A or in the Note is intended to or shall impair, as between the respective Loan Party Payor and the respective Payee, the obligation of the respective Loan Party Payor, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay to the respective Payee the principal of and interest on the Subordinated Indebtedness as and when the same shall become due and payable in accordance with its terms, or is intended to or shall affect the relative rights of the respective Payee and creditors of the respective Loan Party Payor, other than the holders of the Senior Indebtedness, nor shall anything herein or therein, except as expressly provided herein, prevent the respective Payee from exercising all remedies otherwise permitted by applicable law, subject to the rights, if any, under this Annex A of the holders of Senior Indebtedness in respect of cash, property, or securities of the Loan Party Payors received upon the exercise of any such remedy. Upon any distribution of assets of a Loan Party Payor referred to in this Annex A, the Payee shall be entitled to rely upon any order or decree made by any court of compe-tent jurisdiction in which such dissolution, winding up, liquidation or reorganization pro-ceedings are pending, or a certificate of the liquidat-ing trustee or agent or other Person making any distribu-tion to the Payee, for the purpose of ascer-taining the Per-sons entitled to participate in such distri-bution, the holders of the Senior Indebtedness and other indebtedness of the Loan Party Payor, the amount thereof or payable thereon, the amount or amounts paid or distributed thereon and all other facts pertinent thereto or to this Annex A.

Section 1.06. Subordination Rights Not Impaired by Acts or Omissions of the Payor or Holders of Senior Indebtedness. No right of any present or future holders of any Senior Indebtedness to enforce subordination as herein provided shall at any time in any way be prejudiced or impaired by any act or failure to act on the part of any Payor or by any act or failure to act by any Payee, or by any noncompliance by any Payor with the terms and provisions of the Subordinated Indebtedness, regardless of any knowledge thereof which any such holder may have or be otherwise charged with. The holders of the Senior Indebted-ness may, without in any way affecting the obliga-tions of any Payee with respect thereto, at any time or from time to time and in their absolute discre-tion, change the manner, place or terms of payment of, change or extend the time of payment of, or re-new or alter, any Senior Indebtedness, or amend, modify or supplement any agreement or instrument governing or evidencing such Senior Indebted-ness or any other document re-ferred to therein, or exercise or refrain from exercising any other of their rights under the Senior Indebtedness including, without limitation, the waiver of default thereunder and the release of any collat-eral securing such Senior Indebted-ness, all without notice to or assent from the holder of the Note.

Section 1.07. Definitions. As used in this Annex, all capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings as provided in the Intercompany Note to which this Annex A is attached. As used in this Annex, the terms set forth below shall have the respective meanings provided below:

“Subordinated Indebtedness” shall mean all loans and advances owing by any Loan Party Payor to any Payee, including all amounts at any time owing by any Loan Party Payor pursuant to the Intercompany Note, and all related principal, interest, premiums, penalties, fees, indemnities and other liabilities and obligations (including any guarantee of the foregoing) payable with respect thereto or in connection therewith (including, without limitation, all interest accruing after the commencement of any bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, whether or not such interest is an allowed claim in such proceeding).

Section 1.08. Miscellaneous. If, at any time, all or part of any payment with respect to Senior Indebtedness theretofore made by any Payor or any other Person or entity is re-scinded or must otherwise be returned by the holders of Senior Indebtedness for any reason whatsoever (including, without limitation, the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganiza-tion of any Payor or such other Person or entity), the subordination provisions set forth herein shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, all as though such payment had not been made.
