B. Pursuant to the Existing Credit Agreement, certain Lenders have extended credit to the Borrower, consisting of (i) Term B Loans and (ii) Revolving Commitments.

C. The Borrower has engaged the Amendment Arrangers to act as joint arrangers and joint bookrunners in structuring and facilitating this Amendment. This Amendment is a “Incremental Assumption Agreement” referenced in Section 2.24 and defined in Section 1.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement.

D. It is intended that (a) the Borrower will obtain additional term loans in the form of commitments to make term loans with terms identical to Term B Loans (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) and (b) the proceeds of the borrowings under the Incremental Term Loans (as defined below) will be used for working capital and general corporate purposes of the Borrower and its Affiliates, including share repurchases.

E. The Borrower has requested that (a) the persons set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (together with their permitted successors and assigns, the “Incremental Term Lenders”) provide additional Term B Loans (each, an “Incremental Term Loan” and, collectively, the “Incremental Term Loans”) in an aggregate principal amount of $1,350,000,000 and (b) the Existing Credit Agreement be amended in the manner provided for herein.

F. The Incremental Term Lenders are willing to provide the Incremental Term Loans to the Borrower on the Sixth Amendment Effective Date (as defined below), and the Administrative Agent and Borrower wish to amend the Existing Credit Agreement pursuant to Sections 2.24(b) and 10.5(e) thereof on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein and in the Existing Credit Agreement.

Accordingly, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Amendments to the Existing Credit Agreement. The Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

WEST\281600281.4

(a) Section 1.1 of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

(i) The definition of “Class” is hereby amended to add the following sentence after the last sentence thereof:

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Incremental Term Loans incurred under the Sixth Amendment shall constitute the same Class with the “Term B Loans”, and the Incremental Term Loan Commitments (as defined therein) under the Sixth Amendment shall constitute a “Term B Loan Commitment”.

(ii) The definition of “Term B Loan Commitment” is amended by deleting the final sentence thereof and replacing it with the following sentence: “The aggregate amount of the Term B Loan Commitments as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date is $3,510,675,000.”

(iii) The following definitions are added in the appropriate alphabetical order to Section 1.1:

“‘Sixth Amendment’ means the Incremental Assumption Agreement and Sixth Amendment dated as of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, by and among Borrower, the Guarantors party thereto, the Lenders party thereto and Scotiabank, as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent.”

“‘Sixth Amendment Effective Date’ means June 7, 2018.”

(b) Section 2.13(d) of the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended to read as follows:

“(d)    In the event that, on or prior to the sixth month anniversary of the Sixth Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall (x) make a prepayment of the Term B Loans (that are in effect on the Sixth Amendment Effective Date) pursuant to Section 2.13(a) with the proceeds of any new or replacement tranche of term loans that have an All-In Yield that is less than the All-In Yield of such Term B Loans or (y) effect any amendment to this Agreement which reduces the All-In Yield of the Term B Loans (or any mandatory assignment under Section 2.23 by a Non-Consenting Lender shall have been made in connection therewith), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term Lenders, (A) in the case of clause (x), a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans so prepaid and (B) in the case of clause (y), a fee equal to 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the applicable Term B Loans for which the All-In Yield has been reduced pursuant to such amendment. Such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of such prepayment or the effective date of such amendment, as the case may be.”
