WHEREAS, the Parent Borrower, by this Agreement, hereby notifies the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22 of the Credit Agreement, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, of its request to incur Specified Refinancing Debt in the form of a senior secured revolving credit facility, consisting of USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $1,670,000,000.00 and Eurocurrency Revolving Commitments (as defined in the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Agreement) in an aggregate principal amount of €300,000,000.00, to refinance all Classes of Revolving Loans (and the unused Revolving Commitments with respect to each Class of Revolving Loans) in effect under the Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Effective Date (as defined below);

WHEREAS, each Lender that executes and delivers a signature page to this Agreement as a “Refinancing Revolving Lender” (collectively, the “Refinancing Revolving Lenders”) will thereby agree to the terms of this Agreement and be deemed to extend new Revolving Commitments to the Borrowers with a Revolving Maturity Date of July 11, 2028 (collectively, with the new Revolving Commitments of the other Refinancing Revolving Lenders, the “New Revolving Commitments”); and

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1. New Revolving Commitments. This Agreement shall serve to satisfy the notice requirements of Section 2.22(b) of the Credit Agreement. Subject to the occurrence of the Effective Date, each Refinancing Revolving Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that:

(a) Such Refinancing Revolving Lender has a New Revolving Commitment, consisting of USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments and/or Eurocurrency Revolving Commitments (as applicable), in the amount set forth next to its name on Schedule 1 attached hereto and such New Revolving Commitment shall be a Revolving Commitment for all purposes under the Credit Agreement.

(b) The New Revolving Commitments consisting of USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans in respect thereof shall constitute a single Class of Commitments and Loans, respectively. The New Revolving Commitments consisting of Eurocurrency Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans in respect thereof shall constitute a single Class of Commitments and Loans, respectively.

(c) The Credit Agreement shall be amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: ~~stricken text~~) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the pages of the Credit Agreement attached as Annex I hereto.

(d) With respect to the Revolving Commitments existing immediately prior to the Effective Date, (i) the participating interests of the Revolving Lenders with such Revolving Commitments in the continuing Letters of Credit shall be reallocated to the Revolving Lenders ratably in proportion to their New Revolving Commitments consisting of USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments to the extent then available (without regard to whether or not the conditions in Section 4.02 of the Credit Agreement can then be satisfied but subject to such New Revolving Commitments then being in effect) and (ii) to the extent the participating interests of the Revolving Lenders with such Revolving Commitments in the Letters of Credit cannot be reallocated pursuant to the foregoing clause (i), the Parent Borrower shall provide cash collateral in respect of the non-reallocated portion as contemplated by Section 2.05(j) of the Credit Agreement. The actual or contingent participating interests of the Revolving Lenders in Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit shall at all times be allocated ratably to all Revolving Lenders having USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments then in effect.

(e) With respect to any Refinancing Revolving Lender that is an Issuing Bank (as defined in the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Agreement), such Refinancing Revolving Lender has an LC Commitment (as defined in the Credit Agreement after giving effect to this Agreement) in the amount set forth next to its name on Schedule 1 attached hereto.

SECTION 2. Effective Date Conditions. This Agreement will become effective on July 14, 2023, (the “Effective Date”) subject to each of the following conditions having been satisfied (or waived) in accordance with the terms therein:

(d) Closing Certificate. The Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate from a Responsible Officer of each of the Parent Borrower and the Dutch Borrower, certifying (i) at the time of and immediately after giving effect to the Effective Date, the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects with the same force and effect as if such representations and warranties had been made on and as of such date except to the extent that such representations and warranties relate specifically to another date; provided that any representation and warranty that is qualified as to materiality shall be true and correct in all respects (after giving effect to such qualification therein), (ii) at the time of and immediately after giving effect to the Effective Date, no Default shall exist or result therefrom and (iii) that the Dutch Borrower does not have, nor is it required to establish a works council (ondernemingsraad) within the meaning of the Dutch Works Councils Act (Wet op de ondernemingsraden) nor has it received any request from its employees to install a works council.

For purposes of determining compliance with the conditions specified in this Section 2, the Refinancing Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have consented to, approved or accepted or to be satisfied with each document or other matter required thereunder to be consented to or approved by or acceptable or satisfactory to the Refinancing Revolving Lenders, unless an officer of the Administrative Agent responsible for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall have received notice from the Refinancing Revolving Lenders prior to the Effective Date specifying its objection thereto.

SECTION 3. Representations and Warranties. By its execution of this Agreement, each Loan Party hereby represents and warrants that:

(a) Organization; Powers. Each Borrower and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries (i) is validly existing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization or formation, except, in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary, where the failure to be so could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) has all requisite power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted, except, in the case of a Restricted Subsidiary, where the failure to have such could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect and (iii) except where the failure to do so, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, is qualified to do business in, and is in good standing (where relevant) in, its jurisdiction of organization or formation and every other jurisdiction where such qualification is required.

(b) Authorization; Enforceability. Each Borrower and each Loan Party has the corporate or other organizational power and authority to execute, deliver and carry out the terms and provisions of this Agreement and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Dutch Borrower does not have, nor is it required to establish a works council (ondernemingsraad) within the meaning of the Dutch Works Councils Act (Wet op de ondernemingsraden) nor has it received any request from its employees to install a works council. This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Loan Parties, and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of such Loan Party, enforceable in accordance with its terms, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, capital impairment, recognition of judgments, recognition of choice of law, enforcement of judgments or other similar laws or other laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and subject to general principles of equity, regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law and other matters which are set out as qualifications or reservations as to matters of law of general application in any legal opinion delivered to the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement or the Loan Documents.

(c) Governmental Approvals; No Conflicts. The execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement: (i) do not require any consent or approval of, registration or filing with, or any other action by, any Governmental Authority, except (A) such as have been obtained or made and are in full force and effect, (B) filings necessary to perfect Liens created under the Loan Documents and (C) for consents, approvals, registrations, filing or other actions, the failure of which to obtain or make would not reasonably be expected to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, (ii) will not violate (A) any applicable Law or regulation or (B) in any material respect, the charter, by-laws or other organizational documents of such Loan Party or any order of any Governmental Authority binding on such Loan Party, (iii) will not violate or result in a default under any material indenture, agreement or other instrument binding upon the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or its assets, or give rise to a right thereunder to require any payment to be made by the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, and (iv) will not result in the creation or imposition of any material Lien on any asset of the Parent Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, except Liens created under and Liens permitted by the Loan Documents, and except to the extent such violation or default referred to in clause (ii)(A) or (iii) above could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.

SECTION 4. Use of Proceeds. Each Borrower covenants and agrees that it will use the proceeds of the New Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of Section 5.12(b) of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 5. No Other Changes. Except as modified hereby, all of the terms and provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect. This Agreement shall not constitute a novation of the Credit Agreement.

SECTION 6. Reference to and Effect on Loan Documents; Reaffirmation of the Loan Parties.

(a) On and after the Effective Date, (i) each reference in the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents to “this Agreement”, “hereunder”, “hereof” or words of like import referring to the Credit Agreement shall mean and be a reference to the Credit Agreement, as specifically amended by this Agreement, and (ii) each reference to a “Revolving Commitment” or “Revolving Loan” shall be deemed to include the New Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans in respect thereof, as applicable, and all other related terms will have correlative meanings mutatis mutandis (it being understood the New Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans in respect thereof constitute a single Class of Commitments and Loans, respectively).

(b) Except as expressly set forth herein, this Agreement shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any Loan Party, any Lender or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, and shall not alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the Credit Agreement or any other Loan Document, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect.

(c) Each Loan Party hereby consents to the amendment of the Credit Agreement effected hereby and confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Agreement, each Loan Document to which such Loan Party is a party is, and the obligations of such Loan Party contained in the Credit Agreement, this Agreement or in any other Loan Document to which it is a party are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, in each case as amended by this Agreement. For greater certainty and without limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party hereby confirms that the existing guarantees and/or security interests granted by such Loan Party in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents in the Collateral described therein shall continue to secure the obligations of the Loan Parties under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as and to the extent provided in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 7. Amendment, Modification and Waiver. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or waived except as permitted by Section 10.02 of the Credit Agreement. The execution, delivery and effectiveness of this Agreement shall not, except as expressly provided herein, operate as a waiver of any right, power or remedy of any Lender or the Administrative Agent under any of the Loan Documents, nor, except as expressly provided herein, constitute a waiver or amendment of any provision of any of the Loan Documents.

SECTION 8. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Lenders embody the final, entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous commitments, agreements, representations and understandings, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties hereto.

SECTION 9. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 10. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 11. Counterparts; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. Except as provided in Section 2, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart to this Agreement by facsimile transmission (or other electronic transmission pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent) shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed original. The words “delivery,” “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in this Agreement or any other document executed in connection herewith shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

SECTION 12. JURISDICTION; WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. THE JURISDICTION AND WAIVER OF RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY PROVISIONS IN SECTIONS 10.09 AND 10.10 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT ARE INCORPORATED HEREIN BY REFERENCE MUTATIS MUTANDIS. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT

MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12.

SECTION 13. Loan Document. On and after the Effective Date, this Agreement shall constitute a “Loan Document” for all purposes of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (it being understood that for the avoidance of doubt this Agreement may be amended or waived solely by the parties hereto as set forth in Section 7 above).

For purposes of determining compliance at any time with Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03, 6.04, 6.05, 6.06, 6.07 and 6.08, in the event that any Indebtedness, Lien, payment with respect to Junior Indebtedness restricted by Section 6.07(b), Restricted Payment, contractual restriction, Investment, Disposition or Affiliate transaction, as applicable, meets the criteria of more than one of the categories of transactions or items permitted pursuant to any clause of such Sections 6.01,

6.02, 6.03, 6.04, 6.05, 6.06, 6.07 and 6.08, the Parent Borrower, in its sole discretion, from time to time, may classify or reclassify such transaction or item (or portion thereof) and will only be required to include the amount and type of such transaction (or portion thereof) in any one category. For purposes of determining the permissibility of any action, change, transaction or event that by the terms of the Loan Documents requires a calculation of any financial ratio or test (including the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Total Net Leverage Ratio or the Secured Net Leverage Ratio), such financial ratio or test shall, except as expressly permitted under this Agreement, be calculated at the time such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be, and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a change in such financial ratio or test occurring after the time such action is taken, such change is made, such transaction is consummated or such event occurs, as the case may be. It is understood and agreed that any Indebtedness, Lien, Restricted Payment, payment with respect to Junior Indebtedness restricted by Section 6.07(b), Investment, Disposition or Affiliate transaction need not be permitted solely by reference to one category of permitted Indebtedness, Liens, Restricted Payments, payments with respect to Junior Indebtedness, Investments, Dispositions or Affiliate transactions under Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03, 6.04, 6.05, 6.06, 6.07 or 6.08, respectively, but may instead be permitted in part under any combination thereof (it being understood that compliance with each such section is separately required).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) when calculating any financial ratio or test (including any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Net Leverage Ratio test, any Total Net Leverage Ratio test and the amount of Total Assets or the amount of Consolidated Net Income or Adjusted EBITDA) in connection with the incurrence of Indebtedness, the creation of Liens, the making of any Disposition, the making of an Investment or the making of a Restricted Payment, (ii) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default (or any type of Default or Event of Default) has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, (iii) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires compliance with any representation or warranties set forth herein or (iv) determining the satisfaction of all other conditions precedent to the incurrence of Indebtedness, the creation of Liens, the making of any Disposition, the making of an Investment or the making of a Restricted Payment, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, the date of determination of such ratio or other provisions, determination of whether any Default or Event of Default has occurred, is continuing or would result therefrom, determination of compliance with any representations or warranties or the satisfaction of any other conditions shall, at the option of the Parent Borrower (the Parent Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election,” which LCT Election may be in respect of one or more of clauses (i), (ii), (iii) or (iv) be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements (or other relevant definitive documentation) for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into (the “LCT Test Date”). If on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness, and the use of proceeds thereof), with such ratios and other provisions calculated as if such Limited Condition Transaction or other transactions had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Test Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which financial statements have been (or are required to be) delivered pursuant to Section 5.01, the Parent Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with the

applicable ratios or other provisions, such provisions shall be deemed to have been complied with, unless an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or (b), or, solely with respect to any Borrower, Section 8.01(g) or (h) shall be continuing on the date such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated. For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if, following the LCT Test Date, any of such ratios or other provisions are exceeded or breached as a result of fluctuations in such ratio (including due to fluctuations in Adjusted EBITDA or other components of such ratio) or other provisions at or prior to the consummation of the relevant Limited Condition Transactions, such ratios and other provisions will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been satisfied as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder and (ii) such ratios and compliance with such conditions shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or related Specified Transactions, unless, other than if an Event of Default pursuant to Section 8.01(a) or (b), or, solely with respect to any Borrower, Section 8.01(g) or (h), shall be continuing on such date, the Parent Borrower elects, in its sole discretion, to test such ratios and compliance with such conditions on the date such Limited Condition Transaction or related Specified Transactions is consummated. If the Parent Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket availability or compliance with any other provision hereunder (other than actual compliance with the Financial Covenant) on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earliest of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or the date the Parent Borrower makes an election pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence, any such ratio, basket or compliance with any other provision hereunder shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or Disqualified Equity Interests, and the use of proceeds thereof) had been consummated on the LCT Test Date; provided, that for purposes of any Restricted Payment or payment of Restricted Indebtedness, such ratio, basket or compliance with any other provision hereunder shall also be tested as if such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any incurrence or issuance of Indebtedness or Disqualified Equity Interests, and the use of proceeds thereof) had not been consummated.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) under any negative covenant set forth in Article VI or the determination of the Incremental Amount substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision under such negative covenant or the determination of the Incremental Amount that requires compliance with a financial ratio (including any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test, any Secured Net Leverage Ratio test and any Total Net Leverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the “Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that such Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to any substantially concurrent utilization of such Incurrence-Based Amounts.

Section 1.04 Accounting Terms; GAAP. If at any time any change in GAAP or the application thereof would affect the computation or interpretation of any financial ratio, basket, requirement or other provision set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Parent Borrower or

the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP or the application thereof (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed); provided that until so amended, (i) (A) such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision shall continue to be computed or interpreted in accordance with GAAP or the application thereof prior to such change therein and (B) the Parent Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders a written reconciliation in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, between calculations of such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP or the application thereof or (ii) the Parent Borrower may elect to fix GAAP (for purposes of such ratio, basket, requirement or other provision) as of another later date notified in writing to the Administrative Agent from time to time.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant (including the computation of the Financial Covenant) contained herein, Indebtedness of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries shall be determined without giving effect to (i) any election under Accounting Standards Codification ▇▇▇-▇▇-▇▇ (previously referred to as Statement of Financial Accounting Standards 159) (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any Indebtedness or other liabilities of the Parent Borrower or any subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein and (ii) any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof).

Section 1.05 Business Days; Payments. If any payment or performance under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment or performance shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

Section 1.06 Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents. Unless expressly provided otherwise, any amounts specified in this Agreement shall be in Dollars.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating the Dollar Equivalent amounts of Loans and Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between any Alternative Currency and Dollars until the next Revaluation Date to occur.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit or Borrowing not denominated in Dollars in accordance with the terms set forth herein, and a determination thereof by the Administrative Agent shall be presumptively correct absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination made by any Borrower in any document delivered to the Administrative Agent.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit as of (i) a date on or about the date on which the applicable Issuing Bank receives a request from the applicable Borrower for the issuance of such Letter of Credit, (ii) each subsequent date on which such Letter of Credit shall be renewed or extended or the stated amount of such Foreign Currency Letter of Credit shall be increased, (iii) March 31 and September 30 in each year and (iv) during the continuance of an Event of Default, as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in each case using the Spot Rate in effect on the date of determination, and each such amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such Letter of Credit until the next required calculation thereof pursuant to this Section 1.06(c).

(d) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency as of (i) a date on or about the date on which the Administrative Agent receives a Borrowing Request in respect of such Borrowing using the Spot Rate in effect on the date of determination, (ii) as of the date of the commencement of each Interest Period after the initial Interest Period therefor and (iii) during the continuance of an Event of Default, as reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, using the Spot Rate in effect (x) in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) above, on the date that is three Business Days prior to the date of the Borrowing or on which the applicable Interest Period shall commence, and (y) in the case of clause (iii) above, on the date of determination, and each such amount shall be the Dollar Equivalent of such Borrowing until the next required calculation thereof pursuant to this Section 1.06(d).

(e) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Parent Borrower, the Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank of each such determination (such date, a “Revaluation Date”) and revaluation of the Dollar Equivalent of each Foreign Currency Letter of Credit and Borrowing.

(f) The Administrative Agent may set up appropriate rounding-off mechanisms or otherwise round off amounts pursuant to this Section 1.06 to the nearest higher or lower amount in whole Dollars to ensure amounts owing by any party hereunder or that otherwise need to be calculated or converted hereunder are expressed in whole Dollars, as may be necessary or appropriate.

(g) Unless otherwise provided, Dollar Equivalent amounts set forth in Articles II or VIII may be exceeded by a percentage amount equal to 5% of such amount; provided, that such excess is solely as a result of fluctuations in applicable currency exchange rates after the last time such determinations were made and, in any such cases, the applicable limits set forth in Articles II or VIII, as applicable, will not be deemed to have exceeded solely as a result of such fluctuations in currency exchange rates. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall a prepayment be required under Section 2.11(b) if the Dollar Equivalent of the relevant amounts set forth therein does not exceed 5% of such relevant amounts solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates.

(h) For purposes of any determination under Article V, Article VI (other than the calculation of compliance with any financial ratio for purposes of taking any action hereunder) or Article VIII with respect to the amount of any Indebtedness, Lien, Restricted Payment, debt prepayment, Investment, Disposition, affiliate transaction or other transaction, event or circumstance, or any determination under any other provision of this Agreement (any of the foregoing, a “subject transaction”), in a currency other than Dollars, (i) the Dollar Equivalent of a subject transaction in a currency other than Dollar shall be calculated based on the rate of exchange quoted on the applicable Reuters World Currency Page (or any successor page thereto, or in the event such rate does not appear on any Reuters Page, by reference to such other publicly available service for displaying exchange rates as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower) for such foreign currency, as in effect at 12:00 noon (London time) on the date of such subject transaction (which, in the case of any Restricted Payment, shall be deemed to be the date of the declaration thereof and, in the case of the incurrence of Indebtedness, shall be deemed to be on the date first committed); provided, that if any Indebtedness is incurred (and, if applicable, associated Lien granted) to refinance or replace other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than Dollar, and the relevant refinancing or replacement would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing or replacement, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing or replacement Indebtedness (and, if applicable, associated Lien granted) does not exceed an amount sufficient to repay the principal amount of such Indebtedness being refinanced or replaced, except by an amount equal to (x) unpaid accrued interest and premiums (including tender premiums) thereon plus other reasonable and customary fees and expenses (including upfront fees and original issue discount) incurred in connection with such refinancing or replacement and (y) additional amounts permitted to be incurred under Section 6.01 and (ii) for the avoidance of doubt, no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred solely as a result of a change in the rate of currency exchange occurring after the time of any subject transaction so long as such subject transaction was permitted at the time incurred, made, acquired, committed, entered or declared as set forth in clause (i). For purposes of Article VII and the calculation of compliance with any financial ratio for purposes of taking any action hereunder, on any relevant date of determination, amounts denominated in currencies other than Dollars shall be translated into Dollars at the applicable currency exchange rate used in preparing the financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 5.01(a) or (b), as applicable, for the most recently ended Test Period and will, with respect to any Indebtedness, reflect the currency translation effects, determined in accordance with GAAP, of any Swap Agreement permitted hereunder in respect of currency exchange risks with respect to the applicable currency in effect on the date of determination for the Dollar Equivalent amount of such Indebtedness. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, solely for purposes of the calculation of the amount referenced in clause (a) of the definition of the term “Total Net Leverage Ratio” for purposes of the Financial Covenant referenced in Section 7.01, the currency exchange rate with respect to Euros in relation to Dollars on any relevant date of determination shall be the arithmetic average of the average monthly rate at which Euros may be exchanged into Dollars for the twelve (12) months prior to such date (as reasonably determined by the Parent Borrower in good faith).

Section 1.07 Cashless Rollovers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, to the extent that any Lender extends the maturity date of, or replaces, renews or refinances, any of its then-existing Loans with Incremental Loans, Extended Term Loans, or Loans in connection with any Specified Refinancing Debt or Loan Modification or loans incurred under a new credit facility, in each case, to the extent such extension, replacement, renewal or refinancing is effected by means of a “cashless roll” by such Lender, such extension, replacement, renewal or refinancing shall be deemed to comply with any requirement hereunder or any other Loan Document that such payment be made “in Dollars”, “in immediately available funds”, “in cash” or any other similar requirement.

Section 1.08 Pro Forma Calculations.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA, Consolidated Net Income and any financial ratios or tests, including the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio, shall be calculated in the manner prescribed by this Section 1.08; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in clauses (b), (c) or (d) of this Section 1.08, when calculating the Total Net Leverage Ratio for purposes of determining actual compliance (and not Pro Forma Compliance, compliance on a Pro Forma Basis or determining compliance giving Pro Forma Effect to a transaction) with Section 7.01, the events described in this Section 1.08 that occurred subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period shall not be given Pro Forma Effect.

(b) For purposes of calculating Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA, Consolidated Net Income and any financial ratios or tests, including the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio, Specified Transactions (and the incurrence or repayment of any Indebtedness in connection therewith, subject to clause (d) of this Section 1.08) that have been made (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subsequent to such Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA, Consolidated Net Income or any such ratio is made shall be calculated on a Pro Forma Basis assuming that all such Specified Transactions (and any increase or decrease in Adjusted EBITDA, EBITDA, Consolidated Net Income and the component financial definitions used therein attributable to any Specified Transaction) had occurred on the first day of the applicable Test Period.

(c) Whenever Pro Forma Effect is to be given to a Specified Transaction, the pro forma calculations shall be made in good faith by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower and may include, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of cost savings, operating expense reductions and synergies described in clause (g) of “Adjusted EBITDA”; provided that (A) such amounts are reasonably identifiable and factually supportable (in the good faith determination of the Parent Borrower), (B) such actions are taken, committed to be taken or expected to be taken no later than twenty-four (24) months after the date of such Specified Transaction, (C) no amounts shall be added pursuant to this clause (c) to the extent duplicative of any amounts that are otherwise added back in computing Adjusted EBITDA or EBITDA, whether through a pro forma adjustment or otherwise, with respect to such period and (D) it is understood and agreed that, subject to compliance with the other provisions of this Section 1.08(c), amounts to be included in pro forma calculations pursuant to this Section 1.08(c) may be included in Test Periods in which the Specified Transaction to which such amounts relate to is no longer being given Pro Forma Effect pursuant to Section 1.08(b).

(d) In the event that the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary incurs (including by assumption or guarantees) or repays (including by repurchase, redemption, repayment, retirement or extinguishment) any Indebtedness included in the calculations of the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio, as the case may be (in each case, other than Indebtedness incurred or repaid under any revolving credit facility in the ordinary course of business for working capital purposes), (i) during the applicable Test Period or (ii) subsequent to the end of the applicable Test Period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation of any such ratio is made, then the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, the Secured Net Leverage Ratio and the Total Net Leverage Ratio shall be calculated giving Pro Forma Effect to such incurrence or repayment of Indebtedness, to the extent required, as if the same had occurred on the last day of the applicable Test Period. If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given Pro Forma Effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date such calculation is being made had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any Swap Agreement applicable to such Indebtedness). Interest on Capital Lease Obligations shall be deemed to accrue at an interest rate reasonably determined by a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower to be the rate of interest implicit in such Capital Lease Obligation in accordance with GAAP. Interest on Indebtedness that may optionally be determined at an interest rate based upon a factor of a prime or similar rate, a eurocurrency rate, or other rate, shall be deemed to have been based upon the rate actually chosen, or, if none, then based upon such optional rate chosen as the Parent Borrower may designate.

Section 1.09 Restricted Lenders. With respect to each Lender that qualifies as a resident party domiciled in Germany within the meaning of section 2 paragraph 15 of the German Foreign Trade Act (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung) (each a “Restricted Lender”), Section 3.17, Section 5.14 and Section 6.12 shall only apply to the extent that these provisions would not result in (a) any violation of, conflict with or liability under EU Regulation (EC) 2271/96 or (b) a violation or conflict with section 7 of the German Foreign Trade Act (Außenwirtschaftsverordnung) or a similar anti-boycott statute. In connection with any amendment, waiver, determination or direction relating to any part of Section 3.17, Section 5.14 and/or Section 6.12 of which a Restricted Lender does not have the benefit, the Commitments of that Restricted Lender will be excluded for the purpose of determining whether the consent of the Required Lenders has been obtained or whether the determination or direction by the Required Lenders has been made.

Section 1.10 Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 2.14(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers, pursuant to Section 2.14(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Loans is based. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any

alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each applicable USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans in Dollars.

The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

Each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one (1) year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one (1) year after such renewal or extension) (provided that any Letter of Credit with a one-year term may provide for the automatic renewal thereof for additional one-year periods not to extend past the date in clause (ii) below unless the applicable Borrower shall have made arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date unless the applicable Borrower shall have made arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank with respect to cash collateralizing or backstopping such Letter of Credit.

(d) 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 applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender, and each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s ~~Applicable Percentage (or in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage) of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; provided that no USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall be obligated to participate in any Letter of Credit if, as of the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (after giving effect to such issuance), such USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender’s USD/Multicurrency Revolving Exposure would exceed its USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitment. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay (in Dollars, which in the case of a Letter of Credit not denominated in Dollars shall be determined based on the Dollar Equivalent, using the applicable Spot Rate in effect on the date such payment is required) to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Lender’s ~~Applicable Percentage (or in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Lender’s~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage) of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower on the date due as provided in clause (e) of this Section 2.05, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the applicable Borrower for any reason. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, take such actions as it deems advisable to allocate Letters of Credit and participations therein between any revolving facilities outstanding hereunder; it being understood that, subject to the preceding sentence, Dollar denominated Letters of Credit shall be allocated (and participated in and paid) under the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Facility in accordance with the Lenders’ respective USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments. Each 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, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement in the relevant currency not later than 4:00 p.m., Local Time, on the first Business Day after such LC Disbursement is made if the applicable Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., Local Time, on the date such LC Disbursement is made, or, if such notice has not been received by the applicable Borrower prior to such time on such date such notice shall be deemed received on the next day and then not later than 1:00 p.m., Local Time, on the Business Day immediately following the day that the applicable Borrower is deemed to have received such notice; provided that the applicable Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Sections 2.03 or 2.04 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing (in the case of a payment in Dollars), a Eurocurrency Borrowing (in the case of a payment in an Alternative Currency) or Swingline Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the applicable Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting applicable Borrowing, or, if applicable, Swingline Loan. If the applicable Borrower fails to

make such payment when due, then (A) if such payment relates to a Foreign Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, such Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Spot Rate on the date when such payment was due, of such LC Disbursement and (B) in the case of each LC Disbursement the Administrative Agent shall notify each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the applicable Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s ~~Applicable Percentage (or in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Alternative Currency, the~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage) thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its ~~Applicable Percentage (or in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in Alternative Currency, the~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage) of the payment then due from the applicable Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Parent Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans (in the case of a payment in Dollars), Eurocurrency Revolving Loans (in the case of an Alternative Currency) or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement in accordance with this Section 2.05(e).

(f) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in clause (e) of this Section 2.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be 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 or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.05, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, any Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, 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 applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the applicable Issuing Bank or its Related Parties from liability to the applicable Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the applicable Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable Law) suffered by the applicable Borrowers that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence, willful misconduct, material breach of a Loan Document or failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof (in each case, as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of, or material breach of the terms of the Loan Documents by, the applicable Issuing Bank, such 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 applicable Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, 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.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by telephone or written notice (including email) of such demand for payment and whether such 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 applicable Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank and the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If the applicable Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the applicable Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, (i) in the case of LC Disbursements made in Dollars, and at all times following the conversion to Dollars of an LC Disbursement made in an Alternative Currency pursuant to clause (e) above, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and (ii) in the case of LC Disbursements made in Alternative Currency, and at all times prior to their conversion to Dollars pursuant to clause (e) above, at the rate applicable to Eurocurrency Loans denominated in such Alternative Currency with an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration determined on the date such LC Disbursement is made; provided that, if the applicable Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.05, then Section ~~2.13~~2.13 (d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.05 to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement or Designation of an Issuing Bank. An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. ~~The Administrative Agent shall notify the Revolving Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank.~~ At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, ~~(i)~~ the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of such retiring Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter ~~and (ii)~~. A USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender may be designated as an Issuing Bank by written agreement among the Parent Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lenders of any such replacement or designation of an Issuing Bank. From and after the effective date of any such replacement or designation, references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such successor or designee or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the 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 replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the applicable Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the applicable Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in cash in Dollars or, if applicable, Alternative Currency equal to the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; 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 of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (g) or (h) of Section 8.01. Each such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the relevant Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Monies in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the relevant Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 50% of the total LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other obligations of the relevant Borrowers under this Agreement. If any Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the applicable Borrower within three (3) Business Days following a request to do so after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(k) Conversion. In the event that the Loans become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Section 8.01, all amounts (i) that a Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to clause (j) above, if such cash collateral was deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Lenders are at the time or thereafter become required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Bank pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.05 in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit and (iii) of each Lender’s participation in any Foreign Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Equivalent, calculated using the applicable Spot Rates on such date (or in the case of any LC Disbursement made after such date, on the date such LC Disbursement is made), of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or any Lender in respect of the obligations described in this clause (k) shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.

(l) Applicability of ISP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an Existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit.

Section 2.06 Funding of Borrowings.

(a) By ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, Local Time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.04. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the applicable Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or by wire transfer, automated clearing house debit or interbank transfer to such other account, accounts or Persons designated by the applicable Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.05(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank.

(b) Fundings Assumed Made. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has made such share available on such date in accordance with clause (a) of this Section 2.06 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand (without duplication) such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the applicable Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the applicable Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans, or if applicable for Borrowings denominated in an Alternative Currency, a rate determined in a customary manner in good faith by the Administrative Agent. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. If the applicable Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the applicable Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the applicable Borrower for such period. Any payment by the applicable Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the applicable Borrower may have against a lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent.

(c) Affiliate Loans. In respect of a Loan or Loans to a particular Borrower (“Designated Loans”) a Lender (a “Designating Lender”) may at any time and from time to time designate (by written notice to the Agents and the Parent Borrower) (i) a substitute office from which it will make Designated Loans (a “Substitute Facility Office”) or (ii) nominate an Affiliate to act as the Lender of Designated Loans (a “Substitute Affiliate Lender”). In furtherance of the foregoing:

(i) A notice to nominate a Substitute Affiliate Lender shall be substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto and be countersigned by the relevant Substitute Affiliate Lender confirming it will be bound as a Lender under this Agreement in respect of the Designated Loans in respect of which it acts as Lender.

(ii) The Designating Lender will act as the representative of any Substitute Affiliate Lender it nominates for all administrative purposes under this Agreement. The Loan Parties, the Agents and the Secured Parties will be entitled to deal only with the Designating Lender, except that payments will be made in respect of Designated Loans to the Substitute Facility Office or the Substitute Affiliate Lender, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, the Commitments of the Designating Lender will not be treated as reduced by the introduction of the Substitute Affiliate Lender for voting purposes under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

(iii) Other than as specified in clause (ii) above, a Substitute Affiliate Lender will be treated as a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents and having a Commitment equal to the principal amount of all Designated Loans in which it is participating if and for so long as it continues to be a Substitute Affiliate Lender under this Agreement.

(iv) A Designating Lender may revoke its designation of an Affiliate as a Substitute Affiliate Lender by notice in writing to the Agents and the Parent Borrower; provided that such notice may only take effect when there are no Designated Loans outstanding to the Substitute Affiliate Lender. Upon such Substitute Affiliate Lender ceasing to be a Substitute Affiliate Lender, the Designating Lender will automatically assume (and be deemed to assume without further action by any Person) all rights and obligations previously vested in the Substitute Affiliate Lender.

(v) If a Designating Lender designates a Substitute Facility Office or Substitute Affiliate Lender in accordance with this Section 2.06(c), any Substitute Affiliate Lender shall be treated for the purposes of Section 2.17 as having become a Lender on the date of this Agreement.

(a) Conversion and Continuation. Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the applicable Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.07. The applicable Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) Delivery of Interest Election Request. To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.07, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone or written notice (including email) by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the applicable Borrower were requesting a Revolving Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by email to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the applicable Borrower.

(c) Contents of Interest Election Request. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether, in the case of Loans denominated in Dollars, the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing, if applicable; and

(d) Notice to the Lenders. Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) Automatic Conversion. If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Borrowing prior to the third Business Day prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, in the case of Borrowings denominated in Dollars, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing or, in the case of Borrowings denominated in Alternative Currencies, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected that such Term Benchmark Borrowing shall automatically be continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing in its original Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month at the end of such Interest Period.

(f) Limitations on Election. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the applicable Borrower in writing, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing denominated in Dollars may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing, (ii) unless repaid, each Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (iii) each Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable discretion (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall either be (A) converted to an ABR Borrowing denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) at the end of the Interest

Period, as applicable, therefor or (B) prepaid at the end of the applicable Interest Period, as applicable, in full; provided that if no election is made by the Borrower by the earlier of (x) the date that is five (5) Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of such notice and (y) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Term Benchmark Loan, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (A) above.

The Parent Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under clause (b) of this Section 2.08 at least three (3) Business Days, or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent, 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 Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Parent Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.08(c) shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Parent Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Parent Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of Sections 2.11(c) and (d), (i) to the extent that (and for so long as) any of or all the Net Proceeds of any Prepayment Event giving rise to a mandatory prepayment pursuant to Sections 2.11(c) in respect of the assets of any Restricted Subsidiary or any Excess Cash Flow prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.11(d) attributable to the Consolidated Net Income of any Restricted Subsidiary in either case are prohibited or restricted by (1) applicable local Law from being repatriated to the jurisdiction of organization of the Parent Borrower, taking into account matters such as financial assistance, corporate benefit restrictions and the fiduciary and statutory duties of the directors of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries or (2) material constituent document restrictions (including as a result of minority ownership by third parties) and other material agreements (so long as any prohibition is not created in contemplation of such prepayment), an amount equal to the portion of such Net Proceeds so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in Section 2.05(c) but may be retained by the applicable Restricted Subsidiary so long as the applicable local Law or in respect of such other restrictions will not permit such repatriation to the Parent Borrower (the Parent Borrower hereby agreeing to cause the applicable Restricted Subsidiary to promptly take commercially reasonable actions available under applicable local Law or such other restrictions to permit such repatriation or a part thereof if full repatriation is not permitted) or such conflict or risk exists, and if such repatriation of any such affected Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local Law and such conflict or risk no longer exists, an amount equal to such Net Proceeds and/or Excess Cash Flow not previously paid will be promptly applied to the Term Loans pursuant Section 2.11(c) and Section 2.11(d) and (ii) to the extent that the Parent Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of (x) any of or all of the Net Proceeds of any Prepayment Event or (y) any portion of any Excess Cash Flow prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.11(d) attributable to the Consolidated Net Income of any Restricted Subsidiary to the jurisdiction of organization of the Parent

Borrower would have a material adverse Tax consequence with respect to such Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit that would be realized in connection with such repatriation), the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay the Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.11 but may be retained by the applicable Restricted Subsidiary until such time as it may repatriate such amount without incurring such material adverse Tax consequences (at which time such amount shall be repatriated to the Parent Borrower and applied to repay the Term Loans to the extent provided herein).

(f) Notice of Prepayment; Application of Prepayments. The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (followed by written confirmation) or written notice (including by email) of any optional prepayment under Section 2.11(a) (i) in the case of prepayment of a Term SOFR Borrowing, not later than 11:30 a.m., New York City time, three (3) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of a Eurocurrency Borrowing, not later than 11:30 a.m., Local Time (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may agree), three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (iii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 11:30 a.m., Local Time (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may agree), one (1) Business Day before the date of prepayment or (iv) in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, not later than 12:00 noon, Local Time, (or such later time as the Administrative Agent may agree), on the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that, a notice of optional prepayment delivered by the applicable Borrower may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other transactions, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the applicable Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13. Prepayments of Term Loans shall be applied (i) in the case of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(a), to each Class of Term Loans as directed by the Parent Borrower (and absent any such direction, pro rata among all Classes of Term Loans), to the scheduled installments thereof in the manner specified by the applicable Borrower and (ii) in the case of prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d), pro rata among all Classes of Term Loans to the scheduled installments in the manner specified by the applicable Borrower (and absent any direction, in direct order of maturity of remaining amortization payments); provided, that, notwithstanding anything else set forth in this Section to the contrary, and without duplication of the parenthetical in clause (b)(ii) of the definition of Net Proceeds, any other Indebtedness permitted under Section 6.01 that is secured, on an equal and ratable basis with the Term Loans, by a Lien on the Collateral that is permitted under Section 6.02, may participate in mandatory prepayments pursuant to Section 2.11(c) or (d) on a pro rata or less than pro rata basis to the extent such Indebtedness is required to be prepaid or redeemed with the Net Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, as applicable, from such mandatory prepayment event.

(g) Refinancing Debt. Upon the incurrence or issuance by the Parent Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary of any (x) Indebtedness not permitted under this Agreement or (y) Refinancing Notes, any Specified Refinancing Term Loans or any Refinancing Loans, the Borrowers shall prepay an aggregate principal amount of the Class of Term Loans and/or Revolving Loans being refinanced in an amount equal to 100% of all Net Proceeds received therefrom immediately upon receipt thereof by the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary in a manner consistent with clause (f) above.

(h) Declined Amount. Other than with respect to repayments pursuant to clause (g) above, the applicable Lenders may elect not to accept any mandatory prepayment (each such Lender, a “Declining Lender”). Any prepayment amount declined by the Declining Lenders (the “Declined Amount”) shall be retained by the Parent Borrower.

Section 2.12 Fees.

(a) Commitment Fees. The Parent Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate (as applicable to the Revolving Facility Commitment Fee) from time to time on the average daily unused amount of each Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates.

All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). A Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Parent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay:

(i) Participation Fee. To the Administrative Agent for the account of each USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate for Term Benchmark Borrowings on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Restatement Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure;

(ii) Letter of Credit Fronting Fees. To each Issuing Bank a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, which fee shall equal the product of a percentage to be agreed between the Parent Borrower and the relevant Issuing Bank (but in any event not to exceed 0.125% unless otherwise agreed by the Parent Borrower) of the initial stated amount of such Letter of Credit multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days included in the term of such Letter of Credit and whose denominator is 360; and

(iii) Issuing Bank Standard Fees. Each Issuing Bank’s standard fees with respect to the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder.

Participation fees and standby Letter of Credit fronting fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the ~~third Business Day~~fifteenth day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Restatement Effective Date; provided that: (A) all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments terminate; (B) any such fees accruing after the date on which the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand; and (C) all fronting fees payable with respect to commercial Letters of Credit shall be payable on the date of the issuance thereof. Any other fees payable to an Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and standby Letter of Credit fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day).

(c) Administrative Agent Fees. The Parent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(d) Other Fees. The Parent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to pay to the other fees set forth in the Fee Letter as and when required pursuant to the terms of such Fee Letter.

(e) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid in Dollars on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Collateral Agent or any Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances (absent manifest error in the amount paid).

Section 2.13 Interest.

(a) ABR Borrowings/Swingline Borrowings. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall be denominated in Dollars and shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for ABR Borrowings.

(b) Term SOFR Borrowings. The Loans comprising each Term SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for Term SOFR Borrowings.

(c) Eurocurrency Borrowings. The Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate for Eurocurrency Borrowings.

(d) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee payable by the applicable Borrower hereunder is not paid when due (after giving effect to any applicable grace period), whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section 2.13 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the rate then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans (in the case of amounts owing in Dollars) or Eurocurrency Loans with an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration determined on the date such amounts were due and then on each monthly anniversary thereof (in the case of amounts owing in an Alternative Currency), in each case as provided in clause (a), or if applicable, clause (b), of this Section 2.13.

(e) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan occurring after the Restatement Effective Date and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to clause (cd) of this Section 2.13 shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

(f) Computation. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of three hundred and sixty (360) days, except that interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate or other applicable “prime rate” which shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 in a leap year) and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate and Adjusted EURIBOR Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.14 Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section 2.14, if:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate (including because the Relevant Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone or email as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for an ABR Borrowing and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.14(a) with respect to the applicable Relevant Rate, then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines in its reasonable discretion (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on the day that the Borrower received written notice thereof from the Administrative Agent or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.14), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance

with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to Dollars for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to any Agreed Currency for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of (A) a Benchmark Transition Event and (B) the Benchmark Replacement Date with respect thereto, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (e) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Rate or EURIBOR Rate) and either (1) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a

100

screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f) Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, any Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) such Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to an ABR Borrowing or (y) any Term Benchmark Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the applicable Relevant Rate, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Agreed Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.14, (A) for Loans denominated in Dollars any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day and (B) for Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, any Term Benchmark Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency plus the CBR Spread; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Alternative Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Term Benchmark Loans denominated in any Alternative Currency shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (1) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (2) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, such Term Benchmark Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency shall be deemed to be a Term Benchmark Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark Loans denominated in Dollars at such time.

Section 2.15 Increased Costs.

(a) Change In Law. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate) or any Issuing Bank; or

101

(ii) subject any Lender or any Issuing Bank to any Taxes (other than Indemnified Taxes and Excluded Taxes) on its Loans, loan principal, Letters of Credit, commitments or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto

(iii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Agreed Currency any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Term Benchmark Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

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

(c) Delivery of Certificate. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts in good faith necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in clause (a) or (b) of this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Parent Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof.

(d) Limitation on Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies

102

the Parent Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

(e) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, a Lender shall not be entitled to any compensation pursuant to this Section 2.15 to the extent such Lender is not imposing such charges or requesting such compensation from borrowers (similarly situated to the Borrowers hereunder) under comparable syndicated credit facilities as a matter of general practice and policy.

(f) Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain or fund Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans, or to determine or charge interest rates based upon Term SOFR or the EURIBOR Rate, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans or to convert ABR Loans to Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, convert all applicable Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans of such Lender to ABR Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans to such day, or promptly, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term SOFR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted and all amounts due, if any, in connection with such prepayment or conversion under Section 2.16.

Section 2.16 Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default), (b) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (c) the failure to borrow, convert to or from, continue as or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(f) and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (d) the reallocation of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the applicable Borrower pursuant to Section 2.19 or Section 2.20, then, in any such event, the applicable Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the actual loss, cost and expense (excluding any loss of margin) attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted Term SOFR or Adjusted EURIBOR Rate that would have been applicable to such Loan (but not including the Applicable Rate applicable thereto), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest

103

Period for such Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits of the applicable currency and of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the applicable market for the applicable Agreed Currency, it being understood that such loss, cost or expense shall in any case exclude any interest rate floor and all administrative, processing or similar fees. Any Lender requesting compensation under this Section 2.16 shall be required to deliver a certificate to the Parent Borrower that sets forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section, the basis therefor and, in reasonable detail, the manner in which such amount or amounts were determined, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything contained in the forgoing provisions, no Lender shall be entitled to any compensation from the applicable Borrower under this Section 2.16 unless such Lender is generally charging the relevant amounts to similarly situated borrowers under comparable syndicated credit facilities as a matter of general practice and policy.

Section 2.17 Taxes.

(a) Gross Up. Except as required by applicable Law, any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes; provided that if the applicable Withholding Agent shall be required to deduct any Indemnified Taxes from such payments, then (i) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) any Agent or any Lender receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, and (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes. Without duplication of any Tax paid under Section 2.17(a), each Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law or, at the option of the Administrative Agent, timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for the payment of Other Taxes.

(c) Tax Indemnification. Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and each Lender, within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document or in connection with any registration or presentation of a Loan Document with any authority or court (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.17) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Parent Borrower by a Lender, or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

104

(d) Receipts. As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Borrower to a Governmental Authority, the Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the relevant Lender, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Administrative Agent Indemnity. Each Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) the full amount of any Taxes imposed by any Governmental Authority that are attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that a Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrowers to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.04(c)(ii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent, together with all interest, penalties, reasonable costs and expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, as determined by the Administrative Agent in good faith, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (e).

(f) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A), (ii)) (B) and (ii))(C) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

105

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. borrower, (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; (B) any non-U.S. Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such non-U.S. Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (1) in the case of a non-U.S. 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, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty, (2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI, (3) in the case of a non-U.S. Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E or (4) to the extent a non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-3 or Exhibit D-4, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit D-2 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner and (C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional

106

documentation reasonably requested by the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the applicable Borrower(s) or the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has complied with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.17(f) “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(g) Refund. If the Administrative Agent or a Lender receives or benefits from a credit or refund of any Indemnified Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Loan Party or with respect to which the Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.17, it shall pay over such refund or credit amount to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that such Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such ▇▇▇▇▇▇, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to any Loan Party or any other Person.

(h) [Intentionally Omitted.]

(i) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of an Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the payment, satisfaction, or discharge of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(j) Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank, any Agent and any Arranger, and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 2.18 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Payments; Proceeds of Collateral.

(a) Payments Generally. Unless otherwise specified herein, each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 1:00 p.m., Local Time). Each such payment shall be made on

107

the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent to the account designated to the applicable Borrower by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto and payments pursuant to other Loan Documents shall be made to the Persons specified therein. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. All payments under each Loan Document of (i) principal and interest in respect of any Loan shall be made in the currency in which such Loan is denominated and (ii) any other amount shall be made in Dollars.

(b) Pro Rata Application. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c) Sharing of Payments. If any Lender shall obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans, including by way of exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Revolving Loans, Term Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this clause (c) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant. Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable Law but subject to Section 10.08, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against each Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

108

(d) Payments from Borrowers Assumed Made. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the applicable Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder that the applicable Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the applicable Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the applicable Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate (or in the case of amounts not denominated in Dollars, the Administrative Agent’s cost of funds) and (ii) a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(e) Set-Off Against Amounts Owed Lenders. If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.18(c) or (d) or 10.03(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(f) Application of Proceeds of Collateral and Guaranty. Subject to any intercreditor arrangements entered into by the Agents in accordance with Section 9.09(f), all amounts received under the Guaranty and all proceeds received by the Collateral Agent from the sale or other liquidation of the Collateral when an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing shall first be applied as payment of the accrued and unpaid fees of the Agents hereunder and then to all other unpaid or unreimbursed Obligations (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses in accordance with Section 10.03) owing to each Agent in its capacity as an Agent only, and then any remaining amount of such proceeds shall be distributed:

(i) first, to an account at the Administrative Agent over which the Administrative Agent shall have control in an amount equal to 102% of the LC Exposure then outstanding;

(ii) second, to the Secured Parties, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of Loan Obligations and Swap Obligations, until all the Loan Obligations and Swap Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full or cash collateralized;

(iii) third, to the Secured Parties, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of the Deposit Obligations, until all Deposit Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full or cash collateralized;

109

(iv) fourth, to the Secured Parties, pro rata in accordance with the respective unpaid amounts of the remaining Obligations; and

(v) fifth, to the Person entitled thereto as directed by the Parent Borrower or as otherwise determined by applicable Law or applicable court order.

Excluded Swap Obligations with respect to any Loan Party shall not be paid with amounts received from such Loan Party or such Loan Party’s assets.

(g) Noncash Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if the Collateral Agent shall ever acquire any Collateral through foreclosure or by a conveyance in lieu of foreclosure or by retaining any of the Collateral in satisfaction of all or part of the Obligations or if any proceeds of Collateral received by the Collateral Agent to be distributed and shared pursuant to this Section 2.18 are in a form other than immediately available funds, the Collateral Agent shall not be required to remit any share thereof under the terms hereof and the Secured Parties shall only be entitled to their undivided interests in the Collateral or noncash proceeds as determined by clause (f) of this Section 2.18. The Secured Parties shall receive the applicable portions (in accordance with the foregoing clause (f)) of any immediately available funds consisting of proceeds from such Collateral or proceeds of such noncash proceeds so acquired only if and when received by the Collateral Agent in connection with the subsequent disposition thereof. While any Collateral or other property to be shared pursuant to this Section is held by the Collateral Agent pursuant to this clause (g), the Collateral Agent shall hold such Collateral or other property for the benefit of the Secured Parties and all matters relating to the management, operation, further disposition or any other aspect of such Collateral or other property shall be resolved by the agreement of the Required Lenders.

(h) Return of Proceeds. If at any time payment, in whole or in part, of any amount distributed by the Collateral Agent hereunder is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Collateral Agent as a preference, fraudulent conveyance, or otherwise under any bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law, then each Person receiving any portion of such amount agrees, upon demand, to return the portion of such amount it has received to the Collateral Agent.

Section 2.19 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) Mitigation. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder pursuant to and in accordance with Section 2.06(c) or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

110

(b) Replacement. If (i) a Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, (ii) a Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to a Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of a Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, (iii) a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, or (iv) a Lender shall become a Non-Consenting Lender (as defined below), then the Parent Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.04), all its interests, rights and obligations in one or more Classes (as the Parent Borrower shall elect) under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Parent Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent to such assignee Lender to the extent required by Section 10.04, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, conditioned or delayed, (ii) such assignor Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans of the relevant Class or Classes (and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, to the extent applicable) accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any prepayment premium that would have been payable by the relevant Borrower to such Non-Consenting Lender under Section 2.11(a) if such assigning Lender had consented to any Repricing Transaction, in any case, occurring prior to the six-month anniversary of the Restatement Effective Date and giving rise to its status as a Non-Consenting Lender (assuming that such Repricing Transaction has occurred on the date of the effectiveness of such assignment and assumption) payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event that (i) the Parent Borrower or the Administrative Agent have requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of the Loan Documents or to agree to any other modification thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or other modification in question requires the agreement of all Lenders (or all directly affected Lenders) in accordance with the terms of Section 10.02 and (iii) the Required Lenders (or, in the case of any Class voting, the holders of a majority of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments in respect of such Class) have agreed to such consent, waiver or other modification, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or other modification shall be deemed a “Non-Consenting Lender.”

(c) If the Parent Borrower is unable to find a replacement for any Non-Consenting Lender, a Purchasing Borrower Party may purchase the outstanding principal of its Loans of the relevant Class or Classes, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions set forth in Section 10.04(e) hereof.

111

Section 2.20 Incremental Facilities.

(a) The Parent Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent at any time, on one or more occasions, request to (i) add one or more new Classes of term facilities and/or increase the principal amount of any Class of Term Loans, any Incremental Term Loans or any Specified Refinancing Term Loans by requesting new term loan commitments to be added to such Loans (any such new Class or increase, an “Incremental Term Facility” and any loans made pursuant to an Incremental Term Facility, “Incremental Term Loans”) and/or (ii) increase the principal amount of any Class of Revolving Commitments, any Incremental Revolving Commitments or any Specified Refinancing Revolving Commitments and/or add one or more new Classes of incremental revolving facilities (any such new Class or increase, an “Incremental Revolving Facility” and, together with any Incremental Term Facility, “Incremental Facilities”; and the loans thereunder, “Incremental Revolving Loans” and, together with any Incremental Term Loans, “Incremental Loans”) in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount. Such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments being requested (which shall be (x) with respect to Incremental Facilities denominated in Dollars, in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $10,000,000, and $5,000,000 increments in excess thereof, (y) with respect to Incremental Facilities denominated in an Alternative Currency, in an aggregate principal amount of not less than an amount in such Alternative Currency equal to the Dollar Equivalent of $10,000,000, and $5,000,000 increments in excess thereof or (z) equal to the remaining Incremental Amount) and (ii) the date, which shall be a Business Day, on which such Incremental Term Loans are requested to be made and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments are requested to become effective (the “Increased Amount Date”) pursuant to an Incremental Facility Activation Notice. Any Incremental Revolving Facility may provide for the ability to permanently repay and terminate incremental revolving commitments on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than pro rata basis) with the Revolving Facility.

(b) Incremental Loans may be provided by any existing Lender (it being understood each existing Lender shall have no obligation to participate in any Incremental Facility), or by any other lender (any such other lender being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank shall have consented (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Additional Lender’s providing such Incremental Facilities if such consent would be required under Section 10.04(b) for an assignment of Loans to such Additional Lender.

(c) The creation or provision of any Incremental Facility or Incremental Loan shall not require the approval of any existing Lender other than any existing Lender providing all or part of any Incremental Facility or Incremental Loan.

(d) The applicable Borrower and each Lender or Additional Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Facilities shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Facilities of such Lender or Additional Lender. The applicable Borrower and each Lender or Additional Lender providing a portion of the Incremental Facilities shall determine the terms of the Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Commitments to be set forth in the respective Incremental Assumption Agreement; provided that (i) the final maturity date of any Incremental Term Loan (x) that is a “term loan A” shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date with respect to Term A Loans then outstanding and (y) that is a “term loan B” shall be no

112

earlier than the Latest Maturity Date with respect to Term B Loans then outstanding, (ii) the weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Loan (x) that is a “term loan A” shall be no shorter than the then longest remaining weighted average life to maturity of the then-existing Term A Loans and (y) that is a “term loan B” shall be no shorter than the then longest remaining weighted average life to maturity of the then-existing Term B Loans, in each case calculated as of the date of making such Incremental Term Loan, (iii) such Incremental Facilities shall be secured on a pari passu basis with respect to the Loans outstanding as of (or made on) the Increased Amount Date and/or pari passu or subordinated in right of security with respect to such Loans (and to the extent so subordinated, the holders of such indebtedness or a representative thereof will enter into a Market Intercreditor Agreement that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent with the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent evidencing such subordination) or may be unsecured (it being understood any such Indebtedness incurred in reliance on the Incremental Amount shall be deemed to be “Total Indebtedness secured by a Lien that is not subordinated to the Liens securing the Obligations” for purposes of calculating the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio set forth therein, regardless of whether secured or unsecured), (iv) any mandatory prepayment (other than scheduled amortization payments) of Incremental Term Loans shall be made on a pro rata basis with all then existing Term Loans (and all other then-existing Incremental Term Loans and Specified Refinancing Term Loans requiring ratable prepayment), except that the applicable Borrower and the lenders in respect of such Incremental Term Loans shall be permitted, in their sole discretion, to elect to prepay or receive, as applicable, any prepayments on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis), (v) the maturity date or commitment reduction date of any Incremental Revolving Loan shall be no earlier than the Latest Maturity Date with respect to then existing Revolving Commitments, (vi) with respect to any Incremental Term Loans incurred within 12 months of the Restatement Effective Date under the Ratio Incremental Amount designated as Term B Loans that rank pari passu in right of payment and security with the Obligations, if the All-In-Yield applicable to such Incremental Term Loans exceeds the All-In-Yield for the initial Term B Facility by more than 50 basis points, the Applicable Rate for the initial Term B Facility shall be increased (without any further action by any party or any amendment hereto) so that the initial All-In-Yield in respect of such Incremental Term Loans is no more than 50 basis points higher than the All-In-Yield for the initial Term B Facility, (vii) to the extent an Incremental Revolving Facility is structured as an additional revolving facility under this agreement and not as an increase to the existing Revolving Commitment hereunder, (x) no more than three (3) revolving facilities (including any revolving facility constituting Specified Refinancing Debt) shall be outstanding hereunder at any one time, (y) the Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, take such actions as it deems advisable to allocate Letters of Credit and any participations therein between any revolving facilities; (viii) no Incremental Term Loan will be guaranteed by any Person that is not a Subsidiary Loan Party and (ix) subject to clauses (i) and (ii) above, the amortization schedule applicable to any Incremental Term Facility shall be determined by the Parent Borrower and lenders thereunder.

All terms and documentation with respect to Incremental Facilities which are not substantially consistent from those with respect to the Loans under the existing applicable Credit Facility shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (except to the extent (i) permitted by clauses (i) through (vii) above, (ii) applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date applicable to (x) in the case of any Incremental Term Facility, any then-existing Term Facility

113

or (y) in the case of any Incremental Revolving Facility, any then-existing Revolving Facility or (iii) in the case of any financial maintenance covenant added for the benefit of any Incremental Facility, such financial covenant is added also for the benefit of (x) in the case of any Incremental Term Facility, any then-existing Term Facility or (y) in the case of any Incremental Revolving Facility, any then-existing Revolving Facility); it being understood and agreed that any Incremental Revolving Facility structured as an increase shall have the same terms as the existing Revolving Facility. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be amended as necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to effect the provisions of or be consistent with this Section 2.20. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Parent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) but without the consent of any other Lenders, and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Loan may be made and no Incremental Revolving Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.20 unless (i) subject to Section 1.03, on the date on which such Loan is made or of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (it being understood that all references to “the occasion of any Borrowing” in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the Increased Amount Date), (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates and documentation as required by the relevant Incremental Assumption Agreement and generally consistent with those delivered on the Restatement Effective Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a Change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent).

(f) On the date of effectiveness of any Incremental Revolving Facility, the maximum amount of LC Exposure permitted hereunder shall increase by an amount, if any, agreed upon by Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Bank and the Parent Borrower.

Section 2.21 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) Suspension of Commitment Fees. Commitment fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);

(b) Suspension of Voting. The Revolving Commitment, Revolving Exposure of, and the outstanding Term Loans held by, such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment or waiver pursuant to Section 10.02); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender differently than other affected Lenders or which would extend the final maturity of amounts owed to such Lender or reduce the amount thereof or would increase the amount or extend the expiration of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s commitments shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

114

(c) Participation Exposure. If any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) Reallocation. All or any part of such Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective ~~Applicable Percentages (or in the case of LC Exposure denominated in an Alternative Currency, its~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage) but only to the extent (w) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposures plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Commitments, the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ USD/Multicurrency Revolving Exposures plus the allocable portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitments and (z) no Event of Default then exists;

(ii) Payment and Cash Collateralization. If the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower shall within two (2) Business Days following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, 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 2.05(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding or cannot be reallocated pursuant to clause (i) (it being understood that such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.05(j));

(iii) Suspension of Letter of Credit Fee. If the applicable Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this Section 2.21(c), the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;

(iv) Reallocation of Fees. If the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.21(c), then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ ~~Applicable Percentages (or in the case of fees arising from Revolving Exposure denominated in an Alternative Currency, such Lenders’~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentages); and

(v) Issuing Bank Entitled to Fees. If any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to this Section 2.21(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to such Issuing Bank until such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated;

115

(d) Suspension of Swingline Loans and Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless (i) it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Revolving Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders, (ii) cash collateral will be provided by the applicable Borrower in accordance with Section 2.21(c), and/or (iii) participating interests in any such newly issued or increased Letter of Credit or newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

(e) Setoff Against Defaulting Lender. Any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any mandatory or voluntary prepayment and any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.18(c) but excluding Section 2.19(b)) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the applicable Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participating interest in any Swingline Loan or 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 Administrative Agent, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Parent 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 Borrowers or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower 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, after termination of the Commitments 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 its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 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.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, any applicable Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender who is a USD/Multicurrency Revolving Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s USD/Multicurrency Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the USD/Multicurrency Revolving Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such USD/Multicurrency Revolving Loans in accordance with its ~~Applicable Percentage and/or~~ USD/Multicurrency Applicable Percentage~~, as applicable~~.

116

Notwithstanding the above, the Borrowers’ right to replace a Defaulting Lender pursuant to this Agreement shall be in addition to, and not in lieu of, all other rights and remedies available to the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, at law, in equity or by statute.

117

reflective of market terms and conditions at the time of incurrence thereof, in each case, as determined in good faith by the Parent Borrower (except for covenants or other provisions applicable only to periods after the Latest Maturity Date at the time of such refinancing); provided that a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower delivered to the Administrative Agent at least five (5) Business Days prior to the incurrence of such Specified Refinancing Debt, together with a reasonably detailed description of material terms and conditions of such Specified Refinancing Debt or drafts of the documentation related thereto, stating that the Parent Borrower has determined in good faith that such terms and conditions satisfy the foregoing requirement in this clause (viii) shall be conclusive evidence that such terms and conditions satisfy the foregoing requirements unless the Administrative Agent notifies the Parent Borrower within such five (5) Business Day period that it disagrees with such determination (including a reasonable description of the basis upon which it disagrees); and (ix) the Net Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Debt shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Loans being so refinanced, in each case pursuant to Section 2.08 and 2.11, as applicable; provided, however, that such Specified Refinancing Debt (x) may provide for any additional or different financial or other covenants or other provisions that are agreed among the Parent Borrower and the lenders thereof and applicable only during periods after the Latest Maturity Date of any of the Loans (and Commitments) that remain outstanding after giving effect to such Specified Refinancing Debt or the date on which all non-refinanced Obligations are paid in full and (y) shall not have a principal or commitment amount (or accreted value) greater than the Loans and Revolving Commitments being refinanced (excluding accrued interest, fees (including original issue discount and upfront fees), discounts, premiums or expenses).

(b) The Parent Borrower shall make any request for Specified Refinancing Debt pursuant to a written notice to the Administrative Agent specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof.

The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish any Specified Refinancing Debt and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower in connection with the establishment of such Specified Refinancing Debt, in each case on terms consistent with and/or to effect the provisions of this Section 2.22.

118

(e) 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 Specified Refinancing Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including the addition of such Specified Refinancing Debt as separate facilities hereunder and treated in a manner consistent with the Credit Facilities being refinanced, including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any Person other than the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Debt, 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 Parent Borrower to effect the provisions of or be consistent with this Section 2.22. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participation in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the scheduled maturity date in respect of a Class of revolving commitments shall be reallocated from Lenders holding such revolving commitments to Lenders holding refinancing revolving commitments in accordance with the terms of such Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding refinancing revolving commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such extended revolving commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

Section 2.23 ~~[Reserved]~~Revolving Facility Sustainability Amendment.

. With respect to the Revolving Facility only:

(a) The Parent Borrower may, at any time, submit a request in writing to the Administrative Agent that this Agreement be amended to include specified key performance indicators with respect to certain environmental, social and governance targets of the Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries (the “Sustainability Targets”) and other related provisions (including without limitation those provisions described in this Section), to be

In addition, if so provided in the relevant Extension Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank, participation in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the scheduled maturity date in respect of a Class of revolving commitments shall be reallocated from Lenders holding such revolving commitments to Lenders holding Extended Revolving Commitments in accordance with the terms of such Extension Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding refinancing revolving commitments, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such extended revolving commitments and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

(e) No amendment, conversion or exchange of Loans pursuant to any Extension Amendment in accordance with this Section 2.24 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, during any period during which solely a Financial Covenant Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Administrative Agent may with the consent of, and shall at the request of, the Required TLA Lenders or Required Revolving Lenders take any of the foregoing actions described in the immediately preceding paragraph solely as they relate to the Revolving Lenders or Term A Lenders (versus the Lenders), the Revolving Commitments and Term A Commitments (versus the Commitments), the Revolving Loans, the Swingline Loans and the Term A Loans (versus the Loans), and the Letters of Credit.

Section 8.02 Borrowers’ Right to Cure.

(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 8.01, if the Parent Borrower determines that an Event of Default under the Financial Covenant has occurred or may occur with respect to any Test Period, during the period commencing after the beginning of the last fiscal quarter included in such Test Period and ending ten (10) Business Days after the date on which financial statements are required to be delivered hereunder with respect to the last fiscal quarter in such Test Period (the last day of such period being the “Anticipated Cure Deadline”), a Specified Equity Contribution may be made to the Parent Borrower (a “Designated Equity Contribution”), and the amount of the Net Proceeds thereof shall be deemed to increase Adjusted EBITDA with respect to such applicable Test Period; provided that such Net Proceeds (i) are actually received by the Parent Borrower as cash common equity (including through capital contribution of such Net Proceeds to the Parent Borrower) during the period commencing after the beginning of the last fiscal quarter included in such Test Period by the Parent Borrower and ending on the Anticipated Cure Deadline and (ii) are Not Otherwise Applied. The parties hereby acknowledge that this Section 8.02(a) may not be relied on for purposes of calculating any financial ratios (including, without limitation, any ratios set forth in the definition of Applicable Rate) other than as set forth in the Financial Covenant and shall not result in any adjustment to any baskets, interest rates or other amounts other than the amount of the Adjusted EBITDA solely for the purpose of calculating the Financial Covenant.

(b) Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of written notice, on or prior to the Anticipated Cure Deadline, that the Parent Borrower intends to make a Designated Equity Contribution in respect of a fiscal quarter, the Lenders shall not be permitted to accelerate the Loans held by them, exercise remedies against the Collateral or any other rights and remedies under any of the Loan Documents that are available during continuance of an Event of Default on the basis of a failure to comply with the requirements of the Financial Covenant, unless such failure is not cured by a Designated Equity Contribution on or prior to the Anticipated Cure Deadline.

176

(c) (i) In each Test Period, there shall be at least two (2) fiscal quarters in which no Designated Equity Contribution is made, (ii) no more than five (5) Designated Equity Contributions may be made in the aggregate during the term of this Agreement, (iii) the amount of any Designated Equity Contribution shall be no more than the amount required to cause the Borrowers to be in Pro Forma Compliance with the Financial Covenant for any applicable period and (iv) there shall be no pro forma reduction in Indebtedness (or any cash netting against such Indebtedness) with the proceeds of any Designated Equity Contribution for determining compliance with the Financial Covenant for the fiscal quarter with respect to which such Designated Equity Contribution was made.

ARTICLE IX

THE AGENTS

Section 9.01 Appointment. Each of the Lenders and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as agent on its behalf, and on behalf of each of its Affiliates who are owed Obligations (each such Affiliate by acceptance of the benefits of the Loan Documents hereby ratifying such appointment) and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions and perform the duties, obligations and responsibilities on its behalf and on behalf of such Affiliates and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions, powers, authorities and discretions as are reasonably incidental thereto and (b) JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as collateral agent on its behalf, and on behalf of each of its Affiliates who are owed Obligations (each such Affiliate by acceptance of the benefits of the Loan Documents hereby ratifying such appointment) and authorizes the Collateral Agent to take such actions on its behalf and on behalf of such Affiliates and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Collateral Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent (relying on the Administrative Agent) shall be entitled to request instructions, or clarification of any instruction, from the Lenders as to whether, and in what manner, it should exercise or refrain from exercising any right, power, authority or discretion and the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may refrain from acting unless and until it receives those instructions or that clarification. The Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may refrain from acting in accordance with any instructions by or on behalf of any Lender or group of Lenders until it has received any indemnification and/or security that it may in its discretion require (which may be greater in extent than that contained in the Loan Documents and which may include payment in advance) for any cost, loss or liability which it may incur in complying with those instructions. In the-absence of instructions, the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may act (or refrain from acting) as it considers to be in the best interest of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall be released from the restrictions of para 181 alt. 2 Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch (German Civil Code).

Section 9.02 Rights as a Lender. Any Person serving as an Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with the Parent Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

177

Section 9.03 Limitation of Duties and Immunities. Neither Agent shall have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and each Agent’s duties are solely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) no Agent shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) no Agent shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise in writing by or on behalf of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, no Agent shall have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request by or on behalf of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.02) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by the Parent Borrower or a Lender, and no Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent. No Agent is obliged to review or check the adequacy, accuracy or completeness of any document it forwards to another party. No Agent shall be bound to inquire: (1) whether or not any Default has occurred; (2) as to the performance, default or any breach of any party of its obligations under any Loan Document; or (3) whether any event specified in any Loan Document has occurred.

Section 9.04 Reliance on Third Parties; Limitation on Responsibility. Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, instruction, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), 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. Each Agent may act in relation to the Loan Documents through its officers, employees and agents and no Agent shall: be liable for any error of judgment made by any such person; or be bound to supervise, or be in any way responsible for, any loss incurred by reason of misconduct, omission or default on the part, of any such person, unless such error or such loss was directly caused by that Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. For the avoidance of doubt, no Agent shall have any (a) liability to investigate title to charged assets or for defective title, (b) liability for the efficacy of the Security Documents, (c) obligation to undertake anything that may be contrary to law or regulation or (d) obligation to risk or expend its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of its duties, obligations or responsibilities or the exercise of any right, power, authority or discretion if it has grounds for believing the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against, or security for, such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

178

Section 9.05 Sub-Agents. Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by such Agent without any liability to their acts or omissions. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article IX shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of such Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as an Agent.

Section 9.06 Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor to the applicable Agent as provided in this paragraph, each Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall have the right to appoint a successor Collateral Agent, subject to the consent of the Parent Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that the Parent ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders or Administrative Agent, as applicable, and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint (i) a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank, or (ii) or a successor Collateral Agent on terms to be agreed, in each case, subject to the consent of the Parent Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld); provided that the Parent Borrower’s consent shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this paragraph (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any farther action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (b) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (i) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (ii) all notices and other

179

communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall also directly be given or made to each Lender. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder (other than with respect to its obligations under Section 10.12). The fees payable by any Borrower to a successor Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After any Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 10.03 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Agent.

Section 9.07 Independent Credit Decisions. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender 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 Loan Document or related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Section 9.08 Powers and Immunities of each Issuing Bank. Neither any Issuing Bank nor any of its Related Parties shall be liable to any Agent or any Lender for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder or otherwise in connection with any Loan Document except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Without limiting the generality of the preceding sentence, each Issuing Bank (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and shall not by reason of any Loan Document be a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender or for any Agent, (b) shall not be required to initiate any litigation or collection proceedings under any Loan Document, (c) shall not be responsible to any Lender or any Agent for any recitals, statements, representations, or warranties contained in any Loan Document, or any certificate or other documentation referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, any Loan Document, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, enforceability, or sufficiency of any Loan Document or any other documentation referred to or provided for therein or for any failure by any Person to perform any of its obligations thereunder, (d) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrowers), independent public accountants, and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants, or experts, and (e) shall incur no liability under or in respect of any Loan Document by acting upon any notice, consent, certificate, or other instrument or writing believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent by the proper party or parties. As to any matters not expressly provided for by any Loan Document, each Issuing Bank shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder in accordance with instructions signed by the Required Lenders, and such instructions of the Required Lenders and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent; provided, however, that no Issuing Bank shall be required to take any action which exposes it to personal liability or which is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable Law.

180

Section 9.09 Permitted Release of Collateral and Subsidiary Loan Parties.

(a) Automatic Release. If any Collateral is the subject of a Disposition (other than to another Loan Party) which is permitted under Section 6.05, the Liens in the Collateral granted under the Loan Documents shall automatically terminate and the Collateral will be disposed of free and clear of all such Liens.

(b) Written Release. The Collateral Agent (upon instruction by the Administrative Agent) is irrevocably authorized to release of record, and shall release of record, any Liens encumbering any Collateral that is the subject of a Disposition described in clause (a) above upon an authorized officer of the Parent Borrower certifying in writing to the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent that the proposed Disposition of Collateral is permitted under Section 6.05. To the extent the Collateral Agent is required to execute any release documents in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent shall do so promptly upon request of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent (at the cost of the Parent Borrower) without the consent or further agreement of any Secured Party. If the Disposition of Collateral is not permitted under or pursuant to the Loan Documents, the Liens encumbering the Collateral may only be released in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 9.09 or the provisions of Section 10.02.

(c) Authorized Release upon Date of Full Satisfaction. The Collateral Agent (upon instruction by the Administrative Agent) is irrevocably authorized by the Secured Parties, without any consent or further agreement of any Secured Party to release the Collateral Agent’s Liens upon the Date of Full Satisfaction.

(d) Authorized Release of Subsidiary Loan Party. If the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall have received a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Parent Borrower requesting the release of a Subsidiary Loan Party, certifying that the Collateral Agent is authorized to release such Subsidiary Loan Party because either: (1) the Equity Interest issued by such Subsidiary Loan Party or the assets of such Subsidiary Loan Party have been disposed of to a non-Loan Party in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05 (or with the consent of the Required Lenders pursuant to Section 10.02(b)) or (2) such Subsidiary Loan Party has been designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or has become an Excluded Subsidiary; provided that no such release shall occur if such Subsidiary Loan Party continues to be a guarantor in respect of any Permitted Ratio Debt or Permitted Acquisition Debt, Incremental Equivalent Debt, Refinancing Notes or any Refinancing Loans of any Loan Party or any Permitted Refinancing Indebtedness of any of the foregoing; then the Collateral Agent (upon instruction by the Administrative Agent) is irrevocably authorized by the Secured Parties, without any consent or further agreement of any Secured Party to release the Liens granted to the Collateral Agent to secure the Obligations in the assets of such Subsidiary Loan Party and release such Subsidiary Loan Party from all obligations under the Loan Documents. To the extent the Collateral Agent is required to execute any release documents in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence, the Collateral Agent shall do so promptly upon request of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower without the consent or further agreement of any Secured Party.

181

(e) Lien Subordination. The Collateral Agent is irrevocably authorized to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Sections 6.02(a) (other than Liens created under or contemplated by the Loan Documents), (d), (e), (i), (k), (m), (o), (p), (r), (t), (u), (x), (aa), (bb), (dd), (ee), (ff), (gg), (hh) and (jj);

(f) Collateral Release Period. ~~Immediately~~Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Security Documents, immediately upon the commencement of any Collateral Release Period and without further action of any Person, the security interests of the Collateral Agent and the other Secured Parties in the Collateral shall be terminated and released; provided that the Guarantee of each Loan Party of the Obligations pursuant to the Loan Documents shall remain in effect during any such Collateral Release Period. During any Collateral Release Period, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall execute and deliver, at the Parent Borrower’s expense, all documents or other instruments that the Parent Borrower shall reasonably request to evidence the termination and release of such security interests and shall return all Collateral in their possession to the Parent Borrower. During any Collateral Release Period, the Parent Borrower shall not be required to comply with the Security Documents or the terms of the definition of “Collateral and Guarantee Requirement”, Sections 5.10 or 5.15, in each case to the extent such terms require the creation and perfection of security interests or Liens on Collateral (it being understood that the Parent Borrower shall continue to be required to comply with the terms of Section 5.10 that require the provision of Guarantees by Loan Parties in respect of the Obligations).

(g) Upon the termination of any Collateral Release Period, the security interests of the Collateral Agent and the Secured Parties in the Collateral shall, without any further action on the part of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Secured Parties or any Loan Party, be reinstated and the provisions of the immediately preceding paragraph shall no longer apply (until the commencement of a subsequent Collateral Release Period). Promptly following the termination of any Collateral Release Period, the Loan Parties shall execute any and all documents, financing statements, agreements and instruments, and take all such actions (including the filing and recording of financing statements and other documents) that may be required under applicable Law or that the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall reasonably request, to reinstate such security interests and to cause the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement to be satisfied (all at the expense of the Loan Parties), including with respect to any Subsidiaries or assets that would have been subjected to the Collateral and Guarantee Requirement under Section 5.10 had such terminated Collateral Release Period not been in effect; provided that all such actions shall be completed no later than sixty (60) days after the date of termination of such Collateral Release Period (or such later date as the Administrative Agent shall deem appropriate).

(h) Each Agent is authorized to enter into any intercreditor arrangements, including any Market Intercreditor Agreements required hereunder, in each case, with respect to Indebtedness, that is secured by ▇▇▇▇▇ and which Indebtedness contemplates an intercreditor, subordination or collateral trust agreement (any such intercreditor, subordination or collateral trust agreement, an “Additional Agreement”), and the parties hereto acknowledge that any Additional Agreement is binding upon them. Each Lender and Issuing Bank (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by, and will not take any action contrary to, the provisions of any

182

Additional Agreement and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs the Agents to enter into any Additional Agreement and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof. The foregoing provisions are intended as an inducement to the Secured Parties to extend credit to the Borrowers, and the Secured Parties are intended third-party beneficiaries of such provisions and the provisions of any Additional Agreement.

Section 9.10 Perfection by Possession and Control. The Collateral Agent hereby appoints each of the other Lenders to serve as bailee to perfect the Collateral Agent’s Liens in any Collateral (other than deposit, securities or commodity accounts) in the possession of any such other Lender and each Lender possessing any such Collateral agrees to so act as bailee for the Collateral Agent in accordance with the terms and provisions hereof.

Section 9.11 Lender Affiliates Rights. By accepting the benefits of the Loan Documents, any Affiliate of a Lender that is owed any Obligation is bound by the terms of the Loan Documents. But notwithstanding the foregoing: (a) neither any Agent, any Lender nor any Loan Party shall be obligated to deliver any notice or communication required to be delivered to any Lender under any Loan Documents to any Affiliate of any Lender; and (b) no Affiliate of any Lender that is owed any Obligation shall be included in the determination of the Required Lenders or entitled to consent to, reject, or participate in any manner in any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document. The Agents shall not have any liabilities, obligations or responsibilities of any kind whatsoever to any Affiliate of any Lender who is owed any Obligation. The Agents shall deal solely and directly with the related Lender of any such Affiliate in connection with all matters relating to the Loan Documents. The Obligation owed to such Affiliate shall be considered the Obligation of its related Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents and such Lender shall be solely responsible to the other parties hereto for all the obligations of such Affiliate under any Loan Document.

Section 9.12 Actions in Concert and Enforcement by the Collateral Agent. Notwithstanding anything contained in any of the Loan Documents, each Borrower, each Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (A) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Security Documents or to enforce the guarantee set forth in the Guaranty, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Guaranty and the other Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Administrative Agent) for the benefit of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof and (B) in the event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), 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 in any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale.

183

Section 9.15 Erroneous Payments.

186

(a)

Each Lender hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent, may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 9.15 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)

Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent, may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

187

(c)

The Parent Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Parent Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates receives funds from (or at the direction of) the Parent Borrower and/or any other Loan Party in respect of any such Payment or such Payment is made with or on account of the proceeds of a payment made by (or at the direction of) the Parent Borrower and/or any other Loan Party to the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Each of the Administrative Agent or each Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by encrypted or unencrypted electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Any party hereto may change its address for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. All notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.

Each Loan Party understands that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution and agrees and assumes the risks associated with such electronic distribution, except to the extent caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of, or a material breach of any obligations under the Loan Documents by, any agent hereunder, as determined by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction.

Section 10.02 Waivers; Amendments.

(a) No Waiver; Rights Cumulative. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of

189

any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by clause (b) of this Section 10.02, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Amendments. Subject to Section 2.14 and Section 2.23, neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except (i) pursuant to an (A) Incremental Assumption Agreement executed in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.20, (B) a Refinancing Amendment executed in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.22 and (C) an Extension Amendment executed in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.24, and (ii) in the case of this Agreement and any circumstance other than as described in clause (i) and in the first proviso below, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders (or by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders) or, in the case of any other Loan Document, pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Administrative Agent and the Loan Party or Loan Parties that are parties thereto in each case with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall, (A) without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Required Lenders) (1) increase the Commitment of any Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent in Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not be an increase of a Commitment of any Lender), (2) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon (other than interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.13(d) or a waiver thereof), extend the scheduled date of any interim amortization of any Loan or reduce any fees payable hereunder (other than with respect to any Extension Amendment) (it being understood that any change in the definitions of any ratio used in the calculation of any rate of interest or fees (or the component definitions thereof) shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees), (3) postpone the scheduled date of payment of any interest on any Loan or LC Disbursement (other than interest accruing pursuant to Section 2.13(d) or a waiver thereof), or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, (it being understood that any change in the definitions of any ratio used in the calculation of any rate of interest or fees (or the component definitions thereof) shall not constitute a reduction in any rate of interest or fees) (4) postpone the final scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or (5) postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent in Section 4.01 or Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default or Event of Default, mandatory prepayment or mandatory reduction of the Commitments shall not be an extension of a Commitment of any Lender), (B) change the currency in which any Loan or Commitment of any Lender is denominated without the written consent of such Lender (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Required Lenders) (it being understood that designation of additional Alternative Currencies in accordance with the definition thereof shall not constitute a change in currency for purposes of this clause (B)), (C) without the written consent of each Lender (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Required

190

Lenders) (1) change any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Required Revolving Lenders”, “Required TLA Lenders” or “Required TLB Lenders” (or for the avoidance of doubt any provision that requires the consent of all Lenders or all directly affected Lenders), (2) release all or substantially all of the value of the Guarantees of the Obligations by the Subsidiary Loan Parties, (3) release all or substantially all of the Collateral from the Liens of the Security Documents (it being understood that (A) the determination that any assets acquired after the Restatement Effective Date shall not constitute Collateral and (B) the Collateral Release Period, in each case, shall not be deemed a release of Collateral), (4) change Section 2.18(b), (c) or (f) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby (except that modifications to such pro rata sharing provisions in connection with (x) loan buy back or similar programs, (y) “amend and extend” transactions or (z) adding one or more tranches of Loans (which may but are not required to be new money tranches of Loans), which, in each case, shall only require the written consent of each Lender participating in such transaction) and (D) except in transactions permitted by Section 6.03, permit assignment of rights and obligations of the Borrowers hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (but not, for the avoidance of doubt, the consent of the Required Lenders; provided, further that (1) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, and (2) notwithstanding the terms of clause (ii) above, (x) any waiver or modification of a condition to an extension of credit under the Revolving Facility or any Incremental Facility and (y) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class (or Classes) of Lenders (and without the consent of the Required Lenders), that would be required to consent thereto if such Class were the only Class hereunder at the time or (5) except as provided in the definitions of “Applicable Credit Rating” and “Collateral Release Period”, amend or modify the provisions of Section 9.09(e).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, only the consent of (i) the Required TLA Lenders and Required Revolving Lenders shall be required to (and only the Required TLA Lenders and Required Revolving Lenders shall have the ability to) waive, amend, supplement or modify the covenant set forth in Section 7.01 (including any defined terms as they relate thereto) and (ii) the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be required to amend or otherwise modify the definition of Prime Rate.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement (including, without limitation, this Section 10.02(b)) or any other Loan Document to the contrary, (i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended to effect an incremental facility, refinancing facility or extension facility pursuant to Section 2.20, 2.22 or 2.24 (and the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents without the consent of any other party as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower, to effect the terms of any such incremental facility or refinancing facility); (ii) no Lender consent is required to effect any amendment or supplement to any Additional Agreement that is for the purpose of adding the holders of any Indebtedness as

191

expressly contemplated by the terms of the such Additional Agreement (it being understood that any such amendment or supplement may make such other changes to such Additional Agreement as, in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent, are required to effectuate the foregoing and provided that such other changes are not adverse, in any material respect, to the interests of the Lenders); provided, further, that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of any Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of such Agent; (iii) any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be amended by an agreement in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect or inconsistency and such amendment shall be deemed approved by the Lenders if the Lenders shall have received at least five (5) Business Days’ prior written notice of such change and the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five (5) Business Days of the date of such notice to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that the Required Lenders object to such amendment; and (iv) guarantees, collateral documents and related documents executed by Loan Parties in connection with this Agreement may be in a form reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent and may be, together with any other Loan Document, entered into, amended, supplemented or waived, without the consent of any other person, by the applicable Loan Party or Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion, to (A) effect the granting, perfection, protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit of the Secured Parties, (B) as required by local law to give effect to, or protect any security interest for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in any property or so that the security interests therein comply with applicable requirements of law, or (C) to cure ambiguities, omissions, mistakes or defects or to cause such guarantee, collateral security document or other document to be consistent with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time and from time to time, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the applicable Lenders) specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof, the Borrowers may make one or more loan modification offers to all the Lenders of any Class of Loans and/or Commitments that would, if and to the extent accepted by any such Lender, (a) change the All-In-Yield with respect to the Loans and Commitments under such Class (in each case solely with respect to the Loans and Commitments of accepting Lenders in respect of which an acceptance is delivered) and (b) treat the Loans and Commitments so modified as a new “facility” and a new “Class” for all purposes under this Agreement (a “Loan Modification”); provided that (i) such loan modification offer is made to each Lender under the applicable Class of Loans and/or Commitments on the same terms and subject to the same procedures as are applicable to all other Lenders under such Class of Loans and/or Commitments (which procedures in any case shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent), (ii) no Loan Modification shall affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank, without its prior written consent, (iii) no Loan Modification is secured by assets other than the Collateral and (iv) no Loan Modification will be guaranteed by Subsidiaries other than the Subsidiary Loan Parties.

192

In connection with any such Loan Modification, the Borrowers and each accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent such agreements and other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the applicable loan modification offer and the terms and conditions thereof, and this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be amended in a writing (which may be executed and delivered by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and shall be effective only with respect to the applicable Loans and Commitments of Lenders that shall have accepted the relevant loan modification offer (and only with respect to Loans and Commitments as to which any such Lender has accepted the loan modification offer)) to the extent necessary or appropriate, in the judgment of the Administrative Agent, to reflect the existence of, and to give effect to the terms and conditions of, the applicable Loan Modification (including the addition of such modified Loans and/or Commitments as a “facility” or a “Class” hereunder). No Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to accept any loan modification offer, and may reject any such offer in its sole discretion. On the effective date of any Loan Modification applicable to the Revolving Facility, the Borrowers shall prepay any Revolving Loans or LC Exposure outstanding on such effective date (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.16) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Revolving Loans or LC Exposure, as the case may be, ratable with any revised pro rata share of a Revolving Lender in respect of the Revolving Facility arising from any nonratable Loan Modification to the Revolving Commitments under this Section. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Loan Modification referred to above shall become effective unless the Administrative Agent, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent in all material respects with those delivered on the Restatement Effective Date under Section 4.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a change in Law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent). The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Borrowers as may be necessary in order to establish any Loan Modification and to make such technical amendments as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers in connection with the establishment of such loan modification offer, in each case on terms consistent with and/or to effect the provisions hereof relating to Loan Modifications.

194

previously owned or leased by the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries or any of their Affiliates after such property is transferred to an Indemnitee or its successors or assigns by way of a foreclosure, deed–in–lieu of foreclosure or similar transfer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Indemnitee shall be obligated to refund and return any and all amounts paid by any Borrower under this paragraph to such Indemnitee for any such fees, expenses or damages to the extent such Indemnitee is not entitled to payment of such amount in accordance with the terms hereof. Each Indemnitee shall promptly notify the Parent Borrower upon receipt of written notice of any claim or threat to institute a claim; provided that any failure by any Indemnitee to give such notice shall not relieve the loan parties from the obligation to indemnify such Indemnitee. This Section 10.03(b) and Section 10.03(a) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages from any non-Tax claim.

(c) Lender’s Agreement to Pay. To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender under clause (a) or (b) of this Section 10.03, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the total Revolving Exposures, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time.

(d) Waiver of Damages. To the extent permitted by applicable Law, none of parties hereto (nor any Indemnitee) shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Loan Party or Indemnitee, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof, provided, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Loan Parties’ indemnification obligations to the extent such special, indirect, consequential and punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

(e) Payment. Unless otherwise specified, all amounts due under this Section 10.03 shall be payable not later than thirty (30) days after written demand therefor.

196

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(1) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than (1) $1,000,000 in the case of the Term Facility and (2) $5,000,000 in the case of the Revolving Facility unless each of the Parent Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned);

(2) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided that this clause shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s rights and obligations in respect of any Class of Commitments or Loans;

(5) (A) that until the interpretation of the term “public” (as referred to in Article 4.1(1) of the Capital Requirements Regulation (EU 575/2013)) has been published by the competent authority, the value of the rights assigned or transferred in accordance with this Section 10.04 is at least €100,000 (or its equivalent in another currency) or (B) as soon as the interpretation of the term “public” has been published by the competent authority, the assignee or transferee is not considered to be part of the public on the basis of such interpretation.

(iii) The Parent Borrower shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such assignment in addition to any other remedies available to the Parent Borrower at law or at equity in respect of any assignment by a Lender without the Parent Borrower’s consent to any Disqualified Institution or, to the extent the Parent Borrower’s consent is required under the terms hereof (and not obtained). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with

197

the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Institutions. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent shall not (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to any Disqualified Institution.

(iv) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (b))(v) of this Section 10.04, 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 (including providing forms pursuant to Section 2.17(f)) of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Section 10.04.

(v) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall treat each Person that is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice (it being understood that no Lender shall be entitled to view any information in the Register except such information contained therein with respect to the Class and amount of Obligations owing to such Lender).

(vi) 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), the processing and recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section 10.04 and any written consent to such assignment required by clause (b) of this Section 10.04, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any

198

payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.04(c), 2.05(d) or (e), 2.06(b), 2.18(c) or (d) or 10.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this clause (vi).

(i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any other Person, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (except the Parent Borrower, any Subsidiary or a Disqualified Institution (to the extent a list of Disqualified Institutions has been provided to each Lender)) (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); 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 Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Issuing Banks 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 or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.02(b) that affects such Participant. Subject to clause (c))(ii) of this Section 10.04, each Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 10.04. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. The Parent Borrower shall be entitled to seek specific performance to unwind any such assignment or participation in addition to any other remedies available to the Parent Borrower at law or at equity in respect of any participation by a Lender without the Parent Borrower’s consent to any Disqualified Institutions or, to the extent the Parent Borrower’s consent is required under the terms hereof (and not obtained).

(ii) Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers solely for United States federal tax purposes, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any

199

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, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person that is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Pledge. Any Lender may, in accordance with applicable Law, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section 10.04 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 ▇▇▇▇▇▇ as a party hereto.

(e) Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (x) any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Person that, after giving effect to such assignment, would be an Affiliated Lender or a Purchasing Borrower Party in accordance with Section 10.04(b) and (y) any Affiliated Lender or the Borrowers and any Subsidiary may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Term Loans on a non-pro rata basis through (a) open market purchases and/or (b) Dutch auction procedures open to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with customary procedures to be agreed between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable agent managing such auction); provided that:

(i) with respect to assignments to and purchases by any Purchasing Borrower Party, no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;

(ii) the assigning Lender and Affiliated Lender or Purchasing Borrower Party purchasing such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Term Loans, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption in lieu of an Assignment and Assumption;

(iii) for the avoidance of doubt, ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ shall not be permitted to assign Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans to any Affiliated Lender or Purchasing Borrower Party;

200

(iv) any Term Loans assigned to any Purchasing Borrower Party (or purchased or prepaid by any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries) acting in accordance with this Section 10.04(e) shall be automatically and permanently cancelled upon the effectiveness of such assignment and will thereafter no longer be outstanding for any purpose hereunder;

(v) no Purchasing Borrower Party (including any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries acting as a Purchasing Borrower Party) may use the proceeds from Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans to purchase any Term Loans;

(vi) no Term Loan may be assigned to an Affiliated Lender pursuant to this Section 10.04(e), if after giving effect to such assignment, Affiliated Lenders together in the aggregate would own in excess of 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term Loans then outstanding (calculated as of the date of such purchase after giving effect to any simultaneous cancellation thereof); and

(vii) any Affiliated Lender may (but shall not be required to) contribute Term Loans acquired by such Affiliated Lender to the Parent Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries for purposes of canceling such debt.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (i) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, (ii) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to any Loan Party or its representatives (and in any case, other than the right to receive notices of prepayments and other administrative notices in respect of its Loans required to be delivered to Lenders) or (iii) make or bring (or participate in, other than as a passive participant in or recipient of its pro rata benefits of) any claim, in its capacity as a Lender, against the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender with respect to any duties or obligations or alleged duties or obligations of such Agent or any other such Lender under the Loan Documents.

(g) Notwithstanding anything in Section 10.02 or the definition of “Required Lenders”, “Required TLA Lenders” or “Required TLB Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the “Required Lenders”, “Required TLA Lenders” or “Required TLB Lenders” have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Term Loans held by any Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have voted in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders for all purposes of calculating whether the Required Lenders have taken any actions; provided that this clause (g) shall not apply with respect to any amendment, modification, waiver or consent that disproportionately, directly and adversely affects such Affiliated Lender.

201

(h) Each Affiliated Lender hereby agrees that if a case under Title 11 of the United States Code is commenced against any Loan Party, each such Affiliated Lender shall consent to provide that the vote of such Affiliated Lender (in its capacity as a Lender) with respect to any plan of reorganization of such Loan Party shall be deemed to be without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders, except that such Affiliated Lender’s vote (in its capacity as a Lender) may be counted to the extent any such plan of reorganization proposes to treat the Obligations held by such Affiliated Lender in a manner that is less favorable in any respect to such Affiliated Lender than the proposed treatment of similar Obligations held by Lenders that are not Affiliates of the Borrowers. Each Affiliated Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an interest) as such Affiliated ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this clause (h).

(i) In no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender nor shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the number of Affiliated Lenders or the aggregate amount of Loans or Incremental Loans held by Affiliated Lenders.

Section 10.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 10.03 and Article IX shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, if any entity ceases to be a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, such entity shall be entitled to the benefits of the surviving provisions in the previous sentence but only with respect to the period during which such entity was a Lender under this Agreement.

Section 10.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or the Arrangers embody the final, entire agreement among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous commitments, agreements, representations and understandings, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and may not be contradicted or varied by evidence of prior, contemporaneous or subsequent oral agreements or discussions of the parties hereto. There are no unwritten oral agreements among the parties hereto. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this

202

Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by email or other electronic means (including a “.pdf” or “.tif” file) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

Section 10.07 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 10.08 Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of its Affiliates is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Borrower against any of and all the Loan Obligations held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement and although such obligations may be unmatured. Each party exercising rights under this Section 10.08 shall promptly notify the applicable Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) after any such exercise; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such right. The rights of each Lender under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

examination of such Lender), (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions not less restrictive than those of this Section 10.12, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement (but excluding any Disqualified Institution (to the extent a list of Disqualified Institutions has been posted to all Lenders)) or (ii) any actual or prospective direct or indirect counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or, derivative transaction or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their respective obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder relating to any Loan Party and its obligations, (g) with the written consent of the Parent Borrower (h) to the extent such Information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section 10.12 or, (i) to any rating agency when required by it, provided that, prior to any disclosure, such rating agency shall undertake to preserve the confidentiality of any confidential Information relating to the Loan Parties received by it from such Person or (j) to the extent required by a potential or actual insurer or reinsurer in connection with providing insurance, reinsurance or credit risk mitigation coverage under which payments are to be made or may be made by reference to this Agreement. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and any customary information about this Agreement required for league table or similar credit. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrowers relating to the Borrowers, their Subsidiaries or their business. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section 10.12 shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information. Each Lender acknowledges that information as defined in this Section furnished to it pursuant to this Agreement may include material non-public information concerning the Loan Parties and their Related Parties or their respective securities, and confirms that it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information and that it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with those procedures and applicable Law, including federal and state securities laws. All information, including requests for waivers and amendments, furnished by any Borrower or any Agent or Arranger pursuant to, or in the course of administering, this Agreement will be syndicate-level information, which may contain material non-public information about the loan parties and their related parties or their respective securities. Accordingly, each Lender represents to each Borrower and the Agents and Arrangers that it has identified in its administrative questionnaire a credit contact who may receive information that may contain material non-public information in accordance with its compliance procedures and applicable Law. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 10.12 to the contrary, to the extent any legal counsel, independent auditors, professionals and other experts or agents of a Lender receives any Information, such legal counsel, independent auditors, professionals and other experts or agents shall sign an undertaking that they will treat such Information as confidential (subject to certain customary exceptions) unless there are established and enforceable codes of professional conduct governing the confidential treatment of such Information so received.

Section 10.13 Maximum Interest Rate.

(a) Limitation to Maximum Rate; Recapture. No interest rate specified in any Loan Document shall at any time exceed the Maximum Rate. If at any time the interest rate (the “Contract Rate”) for any obligation under the Loan Documents shall exceed the Maximum Rate, thereby causing the interest accruing on such obligation to be limited to the Maximum Rate, then any subsequent reduction in the Contract Rate for such obligation shall not reduce the rate of interest on such obligation below the Maximum Rate until the aggregate amount of interest accrued on such obligation equals the aggregate amount of interest which would have accrued on such obligation if the Contract Rate for such obligation had at all times been in effect. As used herein, the term “Maximum Rate” means, at any time with respect to any Lender, the maximum rate of nonusurious interest under applicable Law that such Lender may charge the applicable Borrower. The Maximum Rate shall be calculated in a manner that takes into account any and all fees, payments, and other charges contracted for, charged, or received in connection with the Loan Documents that constitute interest under applicable Law. Each change in any interest rate provided for herein based upon the Maximum Rate resulting from a change in the Maximum Rate shall take effect without notice to any Borrower at the time of such change in the Maximum Rate.

(b) Cure Provisions. No provision of any Loan Document shall require the payment or the collection of interest in excess of the Maximum Rate. If any excess of interest in such respect is hereby provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided, in any Loan Document or otherwise in connection with this loan transaction, the provisions of this Section 10.13 shall govern and prevail and neither any Borrower nor the sureties, guarantors, successors, or assigns of any Borrower shall be obligated to pay the excess amount of such interest or any other excess sum paid for the use, forbearance, or detention of sums loaned pursuant hereto. In the event any Lender ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such sum, such amount which would be in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable Law shall be applied as a payment and reduction of the principal of the obligations outstanding hereunder, and, if the principal of the obligations outstanding hereunder has been paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the applicable Borrower. In determining whether or not the interest paid or payable exceeds the Maximum Rate, each Borrower and each Lender shall, to the extent permitted by applicable Law, (a) characterize any non-principal payment as an expense, fee, or premium rather than as 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 entire contemplated term of the obligations outstanding hereunder so that interest for the entire term does not exceed the Maximum Rate.

Section 10.14 Limitation of Liability. None of Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, any Lender, or any of their respective Related Parties shall have any liability with respect to, and each Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, and each Lender and, by the execution of the Loan Documents to which it is a party, each other Loan Party, hereby waives, releases, and agrees not to sue any of them upon, any claim for any special, indirect, incidental, consequential or punitive damages suffered or incurred by such party in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to any of the Loan Documents, or any of the transactions contemplated by any of the Loan Documents; provided, that nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Loan Parties’ indemnification obligations in Section 10.03 to the extent such special, indirect, consequential and punitive damages are included in any third party claim in connection with which any Indemnitee is entitled to indemnification hereunder.

206

Section 10.15 No Duty. All attorneys, accountants, appraisers, and other professional Persons and consultants retained by the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or any Lender shall have the right to act exclusively in the interest of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders and shall have no duty of disclosure, duty of loyalty, duty of care, or other duty or obligation of any type or nature whatsoever to any Borrower, any other Loan Party, any of the Parent Borrower’s shareholders or any other Person.

Section 10.16 No Fiduciary Relationship. The relationship between the Loan Parties on the one hand and the Agents, each other agent party hereto and each Lender on the other is solely that of debtor and creditor, and neither Agent, nor any other agent party hereto, nor any Arranger nor any Lender has any fiduciary or other special relationship with any Loan Party, and no term or condition of any of the Loan Documents shall be construed so as to deem the relationship between the Loan Parties on the one hand and each Agent, each other agent party hereto and each Lender on the other to be other than that of debtor and creditor. In addition, each Agent, each other agent party hereto, each Arranger and each Lender and their Affiliates may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Loan Parties, their stockholders and/or their Affiliates. The Loan Parties acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Loan Parties, on the other, and (ii) in connection therewith (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise any Loan Party, its stockholders or its Affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to any Loan Party except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of any Loan Party, its management, stockholders, creditors or any other Person. Each Loan Party acknowledges and agrees that it has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. Each Loan Party agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to such Loan Party, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby.

Section 10.17 Construction. Each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender acknowledges that each of them has had the benefit of legal counsel of its own choice and has been afforded an opportunity to review the Loan Documents with its legal counsel and that the Loan Documents shall be construed as if jointly drafted by the parties thereto.

Section 10.18 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance with the Patriot Act.

207

This Agreement may be amended as necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Parent Borrower to effect the provisions of or be consistent with this Section 10.20. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary (including Section 10.02), any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Parent Borrower’s consent, but without the consent of any other Lenders (other than with respect to such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s approval of an Additional Borrower’s jurisdiction of incorporation or formation as set forth above), and furnished to the other parties hereto.

Section 10.22 Effect of Amendment and Restatement.

As of the Restatement Effective Date, this Agreement shall amend, and restate as amended, the Existing Coty Credit Agreement, but shall not constitute a novation thereof or in any way impair or otherwise affect the rights or obligations of the parties thereunder (including with respect to the Loans and the representations and warranties made thereunder) except as such rights or obligations are amended or modified hereby. The Existing Coty Credit Agreement as amended and restated hereby shall be deemed to be a continuing agreement among the parties, and all documents, instruments and agreements delivered pursuant to or in connection with the Existing Coty Credit Agreement not amended and restated in connection with the entry of the parties into this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect, each in accordance with its terms, as of the date of delivery or such other date as contemplated by such document, instrument or agreement to the same extent as if the modifications to the Existing

210

Coty Credit Agreement contained herein were set forth in an amendment to the Existing Coty Credit Agreement in a customary form, unless such document, instrument or agreement has otherwise been terminated or has expired in accordance with or pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, the Existing Coty Credit Agreement or such document, instrument or agreement or as otherwise agreed by the required parties hereto or thereto. Each reference in the Loan Documents to the Existing Coty Credit Agreement shall, as of the Restatement Effective Date, be construed to be a reference to the Existing Coty Credit Agreement as amended by this Agreement.

Section 10.23 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

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

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

Section 10.24 Judgment Currency.

If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due from any Borrower hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other

211

currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, from the applicable Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the applicable Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in the Agreement Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the applicable Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable Law).
