For the avoidance of doubt, (i) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (ii) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (1) or (2) with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such Benchmark (or component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, Lenders are permitted, but are under no obligation, to make Uncommitted Swingline Loans to (x) any Initial Borrower from time to time during the Initial Tranche Availability Period and (y) on and after the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date (if any), ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank from time to time during the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) in the case of any Uncommitted Swingline Loan to be made to an Initial Borrower, (A) the sum of the total Initial Borrower Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the total Initial Tranche Commitments, or (B) the sum of the total Parent Revolving Credit Exposures exceeding the Parent Sublimit and (ii) in the case of any Uncommitted Swingline Loan to be made to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, the sum of the total ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the total ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Uncommitted Swingline Loans.

(b) To request Uncommitted Swingline Loans from any Lender, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender of such request by telecopy or electronic mail, not earlier than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, and not later than 4:30 p.m., New York City time (or such later time as is agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Uncommitted Swingline Lender) on the day of the proposed Uncommitted Swingline Loans. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), (ii) the amount of the requested Uncommitted Swingline Loan and (iii) in the case of a Borrowing Request for a Swingline Loan by EDJ, whether such Uncommitted Swingline Loan is an Intraday Swingline Loan or an Overnight Swingline Loan. Such Lender shall fund the requested Uncommitted Swingline Loan by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders by 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Uncommitted Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will thereafter promptly advise each Lender thereof. The Administrative Agent will make such Uncommitted Swingline Loan available to the applicable Borrower by promptly (and in any event, with respect to (x) any Uncommitted Swingline Loans made by the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as an Uncommitted Swingline Lender and (y) the proceeds of any Uncommitted Swingline Loans delivered by any other Uncommitted Swingline Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder by 5:30 p.m., New York City time, on such date, on the date of such proposed Borrowing set forth in the Borrowing Request with respect thereto) crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of such Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrower’s request.

(c) Each Uncommitted Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Uncommitted Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the applicable Borrower

and the aggregate amount of Uncommitted Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Class Percentage of such Uncommitted Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Uncommitted Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Class Percentage of such Uncommitted Swingline Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Uncommitted Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments of the applicable Class, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Uncommitted Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the applicable Borrower (or other party on behalf of such Borrower) in respect of Uncommitted Swingline Loans after receipt by the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the applicable Uncommitted Swingline Lenders, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the applicable Uncommitted Swingline Lenders or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to such Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in an Uncommitted Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the applicable Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(d) Any Uncommitted Swingline Loans to (i) any Initial Borrower will reduce the amount of the Initial Tranche Revolving Loans available to such Initial Borrower and (ii) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank will reduce the amount of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Revolving Loans available to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, in each case, during such time such Uncommitted Swingline Loans are outstanding on a dollar-for-dollar basis. For the avoidance of doubt, the Commitments of the applicable Class of the applicable Uncommitted Swingline Lenders will not be reduced as a result thereof.

Section 2.07 Funding of Loans. (a) 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, New York City time, or, if later in the case of a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing, 60 minutes after the Administrative Agent advises such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.03(a) of the details of a Borrowing Request made by the applicable Borrower, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders; provided that Swingline Loans and Uncommitted Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.05 and Section 2.06, respectively. The Administrative Agent will, subject to the proviso set forth in Section 2.10(a), make such Loans available to the applicable Borrower by promptly (and not later than the close of business on the same Business Day) crediting the amounts so received, in like funds (for the

avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to fund on behalf of any other Lender if such Lender does not fund in accordance with the times set forth herein), to an account of such Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent in New York City or such other account of such Borrower designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender not later than one (1) Business Day 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 Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (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 Federal Funds Rate Loans (in the case of a Borrowing made to EDJ) or ABR Loans (in the case of a Borrowing made to JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank), as the case may be. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then (x) such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing, and (y) if the applicable Borrower has also paid such amount, such amount (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any interest paid pursuant to clause (ii) above) shall be promptly (and in any event within one (1) Business Day) refunded to the applicable Borrower. Nothing in this Section 2.07(b) shall be deemed to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitments hereunder or to prejudice any rights that the Borrowers may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.08 Interest Elections. (a) Each Revolving Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Revolving 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 Revolving Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. 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 Loans or Uncommitted Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election in writing by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if such 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 a written Interest Election Request signed by an Authorized Officer of the applicable Borrower;

provided that, if such Interest Election Request is submitted through an Approved Borrower Portal, the foregoing signature requirement may be waived at the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent.

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

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

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing made to EDJ), an ABR Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing made to JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank) or a Term Benchmark Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) 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) If the applicable Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to, if the applicable Borrower is EDJ, a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing and, if the applicable Borrower is JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, an ABR Borrowing. 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, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Revolving Borrowing corresponding to such Borrower may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing shall be converted to, if the applicable Borrower is EDJ, a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing and, if the applicable Borrower is JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, an ABR Borrowing, in each case at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.09 Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrowers may at any time terminate, or from time to time reduce, the Initial Tranche Commitments and/or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments (if any); provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount equal to $1,000,000, or a whole multiple thereof, (ii) the Parent Sublimit shall be reduced proportionally with the overall reduction in Initial Tranche Commitments, (iii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce the Commitments of any Class if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, (x) in the case of any reduction of Initial Tranche Commitments (A) the Initial Borrower Applicable Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s Initial Tranche Commitment, (B) the sum of the Initial Borrower Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the total Initial Tranche Commitments or (C) the sum of the total Parent Revolving Credit Exposures would exceed the Parent Sublimit, or (y) in the case of any reduction of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments (A) the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Applicable Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender would exceed such Lender’s ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitment or (B) the sum of the total ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the total ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments, (iv) Initial Tranche Commitments shall only be terminated or reduced on a ratable basis, or a less than ratable basis, with the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments and (v) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments shall only be terminated or reduced on a ratable basis, or a greater than ratable basis, with the Initial Tranche Commitments.

(c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, at any time that there are no ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Loans outstanding, the Borrowers may irrevocably elect to convert all of the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments then in effect into Initial Tranche Commitments.

(d) The applicable Borrowers shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce any Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section, or convert any Commitments under paragraph (c) of this Section, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination, reduction or conversion, as applicable, 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 any Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination of any Commitments delivered by the applicable Borrowers may state that such notice is conditioned upon the consummation of an acquisition or sale transaction or upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities or the receipt of proceeds from the issuance of other indebtedness or any other specified event, in which case such notice may be revoked by such Borrowers (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of any Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction or conversion of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

Section 2.10 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Each Borrower hereby unconditionally severally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of its Loans on the Maturity Date, (ii) to the Swingline Lenders, the then unpaid principal amount of the Swingline Loans made to it on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loans are made and (iii) to the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders, the then unpaid principal amount of the

Uncommitted Swingline Loans made to it on the earlier of the Maturity Date and the fifth Business Day after such Swingline Loans are made; provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing is made, the applicable Borrower shall use the proceeds of such Revolving Borrowing to first repay any Swingline Loans and Uncommitted Swingline Loans made to such Borrower that are then outstanding.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made to each Borrower hereunder, the Class and Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (b) or (c) of this Section shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of any Borrower to repay its applicable Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in the form attached as Exhibit D hereto or in another form approved by the Administrative Agent.

Section 2.11 Voluntary Prepayment of Loans. (a) Each Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time up to 3:00 p.m., New York City time on any Business Day to prepay without penalty or premium of any kind any of the Loans made to it in whole or in part, subject to Section 2.17 and to prior notice in accordance with paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that interest will accrue on such amount being prepaid until the next business day if such payment is received after 3:00 p.m., New York City time.

(b) The applicable Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by electronic communication or facsimile, including an Approved Borrower Portal, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent and, if relevant, the respective Swingline Lenders) of any prepayment hereunder not later than (i) 12:00 noon, New York City time, one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of prepayments of ABR Loans or Federal Funds Rate Loans and (ii) 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of prepayments of Term Benchmark Loans. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid; provided that, if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the

Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Revolving Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.14 and any break funding payments to the extent required by Section 2.17.

(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 Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for 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 Term SOFR Rate for 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 such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrowers and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) 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 and (y) the applicable Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (x) in the case of JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, an ABR Borrowing and (y) in the case of EDJ, a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing; 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 is outstanding on the date of the Borrowers’ receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.15(a) with respect to the Term SOFR Rate, then until (x) 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 and (y) the applicable Borrower delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.03, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) in the case of JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, an ABR Loan and (y) in the case of EDJ, a Federal Funds Rate Loan, in each case on such day.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, 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:

(i) in the case of EDJ, any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing (any occurrence of the events described in this clause (b)(i) (including the lead-in hereto), an “EDJ Benchmark Termination Event”); and

(ii) in the case of JFC and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit 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 Credit Document.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit 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 Credit 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 Credit Document.

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement or an EDJ Benchmark Termination Event, (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 2.15, 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 Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.15.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit 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) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is 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 (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is 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 a Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the applicable Borrower may revoke any then-existing request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans and, failing that, the applicable Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (x) in the case of JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, an ABR Borrowing and (y) in the case of EDJ, a Federal Funds Rate Borrowing.

Section 2.16 Increased Costs. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement, insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender;

(ii) impose on any Lender or the applicable offshore interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or participation therein; or

(iii) subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (c) through (e) of the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Other Connection Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting or maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of participating in or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or

such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will within ten (10) Business Days of written demand pay to such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender determines that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then such Lender shall promptly notify the applicable Borrowers in writing thereof, and from time to time such Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this Section 2.16, no lender shall be entitled to request any payment or amount under this Section 2.16 unless such Lender is generally demanding payment in a consistent manner under comparable provisions of its agreements with similarly situated borrowers of similar credit quality.

(c) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrowers, shall include reasonable details for calculation of such amount or amounts and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to notify the Borrowers or demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that a Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies such Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’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.

Section 2.17 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 or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 2.11), (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, continue 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(b) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (d) the assignment 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 2.20, then, in any such event, such Borrower shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the applicable Borrower, shall include reasonable details for calculation of such amount or amounts and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.18 Taxes. (a) Each payment by any Loan Party under any Credit Document shall be made without withholding for any Taxes, unless such withholding is required by any law. If any Withholding Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it is so required to withhold Taxes, then such Withholding Agent may so withhold and shall timely pay the full amount of withheld Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law. If such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, then the amount payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of such withholding (including such withholding applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.18), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholding been made.

(b) Each Loan Party shall timely pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.18, such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent 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.

(d) Each Loan Party shall severally indemnify each Recipient for any Indemnified Taxes that are paid or payable by such Recipient in connection with any Credit Document related to such Loan Party (including amounts paid or payable under this Section 2.18(d)) and any 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. The indemnity under this Section 2.18 shall be paid within twenty (20) days after the Recipient delivers to the applicable Loan Party a certificate stating the amount of any Indemnified Taxes so paid or payable by such Recipient and describing the basis for the indemnification claim. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error. Such Recipient shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for any Taxes (but, in the case of any Indemnified Taxes, only to the extent that the applicable Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of such Loan Party to do so) attributable to such Lender that are paid or payable by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. The indemnity under this Section 2.18(e) shall be paid within twenty (20) days after the Administrative Agent

delivers to the applicable Lender a certificate stating the amount of Taxes so paid or payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so paid or payable absent manifest error.

(f) (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, any applicable withholding Tax with respect to any payments under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding. In addition, any Lender, if requested by the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by law or reasonably requested by the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to any withholding (including 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 2.18(f)(ii)(A) through (ii)(F) and Section 2.18(f)(iii) 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, in the case of a Change in Law, any incremental material unreimbursed cost or expense) or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Upon the reasonable request of the Loan Parties or the Administrative Agent (or as otherwise required by applicable law), any Lender shall update any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section 2.18(f). If any form or certification previously delivered pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect with respect to a Lender, such Lender shall promptly (and in any event within 10 days after such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy) notify the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent in writing of such expiration, obsolescence or inaccuracy and update the form or certification if it is legally eligible to do so.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Lender with respect to the Loan Parties shall, if it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies reasonably requested by the Loan Parties and the Administrative Agent) on or prior to the date on which such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ becomes a party hereto, ▇▇▇▇ completed and executed copies of whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) in the case of a Lender that is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) 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 (1) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (2) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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;

(C) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender for whom payments under any Credit Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, IRS Form W-8ECI;

(D) 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 both (1) IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, and (2) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C (a “U.S. Tax Certificate”) to the effect that such Lender is not (a) a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (b) a “10 percent shareholder” of any Loan Party within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code (c) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (d) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected;

(E) in the case of a Non-U.S. Lender that is not the beneficial owner of payments made under any Credit Document (including a partnership or a participating Lender) (1) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (2) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (A), (B), (C), (D) and (F) of this paragraph (f)(ii) that would be required of each such beneficial owner or partner of such partnership if such beneficial owner or partner were a Lender; provided, however, that if the Lender is a partnership and one or more of its partners are claiming the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Certificate on behalf of such partners; or

(F) any other form prescribed by law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax together with such supplementary documentation necessary to enable any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of Tax (if any) required by law to be withheld.

(iii) If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.18(f)(iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which indemnification or additional amounts have been paid to it by any Loan Party pursuant to this Section 2.18, it shall remit such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under this Section 2.18 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes giving rise to such refund plus any interest included in such refund (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) by the relevant Governmental Authority attributable thereto) to such Loan Party, net of all out-of-pocket expenses of 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 such Recipient agrees promptly to return such refund to such party in the event such party is required to repay such refund to the relevant Governmental Authority. Nothing in this Section 2.18(g) shall interfere with the right of a Recipient to arrange its tax affairs in whatever manner it thinks fit nor oblige any Recipient to claim any tax refund or to make available its tax returns or disclose any information relating to its tax affairs or any computations in respect thereof or any other confidential information or require any Recipient to do anything that would prejudice its ability to benefit from any other refunds, credits, reliefs, remissions or repayments to which it may be entitled. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.18(g), in no event will any Recipient be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 2.18(g) if such payment would place such Recipient in a less favorable position (on a net after-Tax basis) than such Recipient would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid.

(h) Solely for purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the effective date of the Amendment, each Loan Party and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) this Agreement as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

(i) For purposes of this Section 2.18, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 2.19 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) Each Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees, or of amounts payable under Section 2.16, Section 2.17 or Section 2.18, or otherwise) prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on 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 at its applicable office or offices as described in an Administrative Questionnaire provided by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers from time to time, except that payments pursuant to Section 2.16, Section 2.17 or Section 2.18 and Section 9.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. 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. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment 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. All payments hereunder shall be made in dollars.

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

(c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Revolving Loans or participations in Swingline Loans or Uncommitted Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Revolving Loans and participations in Swingline Loans and Uncommitted 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, Swingline Loans and Uncommitted 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 and participations in Swingline Loans and Uncommitted 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 paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Borrower 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 to any assignee or participant permitted hereunder. Each Borrower consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of 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.

(d) 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 hereunder that such Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if such Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender 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 NYFRB Rate.

(e) If any Lender shall fail to make any Loan or payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02, Section 2.05(c), Section 2.06(c), Section 2.07(b), Section 2.19(d)

or Section 9.03(d), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion and notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it under such Section until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid, and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated account as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding obligations of such Lender under any such Section, in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

Section 2.20 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder 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 2.16 or Section 2.18, 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. The applicable Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If (x) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.16, or if any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.18, (y) in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent to this Agreement or any other Credit Document requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”) or (z) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender or Non-Consenting Lender, as applicable, and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender or such Non-Consenting Lender, as applicable, to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Borrowers shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, the Swingline Lenders), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender or such Non-Consenting Lender, as applicable, shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in Swingline Loans and Uncommitted Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee or the applicable Borrower and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.16 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.18, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. In connection with any such assignment, such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ being replaced pursuant to this Section 2.20(b) shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Assumption with respect to all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and deliver any Notes evidencing its Loans to the Borrowers or Administrative Agent; provided that the failure of any such Lender to execute an Assignment and Assumption or to deliver such

Notes shall not render such assignment and delegation invalid and such assignment shall be recorded in the Register and the promissory notes deemed cancelled upon such failure. 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.

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) [reserved];

(b) the Commitments and Revolving Credit Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 9.02); provided, that this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender;

(c) if any Swingline Exposure or Uncommitted Swingline Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure and Uncommitted Swingline Exposure in respect of any Class of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of the such Class but only to the extent that the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Exposures of such Class plus such Defaulting Lender’s Swingline Exposure and Uncommitted Swingline Exposure of such Class does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments of such Class; and

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrower shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent prepay such Swingline Exposure and Uncommitted Swingline Exposure;

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swingline Lender shall be required to fund any Swingline Loan, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the applicable Class of the non-Defaulting Lenders and Swingline Exposure related to any newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.21(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein); and

(e) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VI or otherwise, and including any amounts made available to the Administrative Agent by such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative

Agent hereunder or under the other Credit Documents; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to each Swingline Lender or Uncommitted Swingline Lender hereunder; third, as the applicable Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan 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; fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower, to be held in a non-interest bearing deposit account and released in order to satisfy potential future obligations of such Defaulting Lender to fund Loans and other obligations under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders or Swingline Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, Uncommitted Swingline Lender or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by such Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and seventh, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) any Borrower makes a payment of the principal amount of any Loans in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were satisfied or waived, then such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of the relevant non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied in the manner set forth in this Section 2.21(e). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

If (i) a Bankruptcy Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Lender Parent of any Lender shall occur following the Effective Date and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) a Swingline Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, such Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan unless such Swingline Lender shall have entered into arrangements with the applicable Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to such Swingline Lender to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers, the Swingline Lenders and the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders, if any, each agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Lenders’ Swingline Exposure of each Class and the Uncommitted Swingline Exposure of each Class shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Commitment of the applicable Class and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans and Uncommitted Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans of each Class in accordance with its Applicable Class Percentage. No adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of any Borrower while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender.

Section 2.22 Incremental Commitments.

(a) The Initial Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, but in no event more than twice (provided that the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion, waive such restriction), request the establishment of additional revolving credit commitments made available to the Initial Borrowers in the form of an increase in the then existing Initial Tranche Commitments (the “Incremental Commitments”) in an amount not to exceed the Incremental Amount at such time from one or more Incremental Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Commitments, in their own discretion; provided, that (i) each Incremental Lender shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent, each Swingline Lender (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and each Initial Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) unless such Incremental Lender is a Lender and (ii) each Incremental Commitment shall be on the same terms as the then existing Initial Tranche Commitments and in all respects shall become a part of the Initial Tranche Commitments hereunder on such terms; provided, that, with the consent of the Initial Borrowers, the Applicable Rate (or any component thereof) applicable to the then existing Initial Tranche Commitments of the applicable Class (and any Loans and Facility Fees related thereto) shall automatically be increased (but in no event decreased) to the extent necessary to cause any Incremental Commitment to comply with this clause (ii). Such notice shall set forth (1) the amount of the Incremental Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of $1,000,000 and a minimum amount of $10,000,000 (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may agree) or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount), (2) the aggregate amount of Incremental Commitments (including such proposed Incremental Commitments), which shall not exceed the Incremental Amount and (3) the date on which such Incremental Commitments are requested to become effective (the “Increased Amount Date”).

(b) The Initial Borrowers and each Incremental Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to increase the Commitments by the amount of the Incremental Commitments evidenced thereby. Any such deemed amendment may be memorialized in writing by the Administrative Agent with the Initial Borrowers’ consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) and furnished to the other parties hereto.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.22 unless (i) on the date of such effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.02 shall be satisfied (without giving effect to the first parenthetical set forth in Section 4.02(b)) and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by an Authorized Officer of each of the Initial Borrowers and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates and documentation to the extent reasonably required by the Administrative Agent, in each case consistent with those delivered on the Effective Date under Section 4.01.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent to take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary (i) to ensure that all Revolving

Loans in respect of Incremental Commitments, when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans made to the Initial Borrowers on a pro rata basis and (ii) to reallocate, substantially concurrently with the incurrence of any Incremental Commitments, (x) all Initial Tranche Commitments and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments amongst the Lenders (including Incremental Lenders) such that after giving effect thereto the Lenders shall hold each of the Initial Tranche Commitments and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments ratably according to their Applicable Percentages and (y) all Initial Tranche Loans and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Loans amongst the Lenders (including Incremental Lenders) such that after giving effect thereto the Lenders shall hold each of the Initial Tranche Loans and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Loans ratably according to their Applicable Percentages (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, if any such Incremental Commitments are established pursuant to the terms hereof, each existing Lender will be subject to the reallocation set forth in this clause (d), but such existing Lender’s aggregate Commitments shall not increase unless such existing Lender elects to participate in such Incremental Commitments).

(e) No existing Lender shall have any obligation to participate in any such Incremental Commitment unless it agrees to do so in its sole discretion.

Section 2.23 Extension of Maturity Date.

(a) The Borrowers may, by delivering an Extension Request to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders), not less than 60 days, and not more than 90 days, in advance of the third anniversary or fourth anniversary of the Effective Date, request that the Lenders extend the Maturity Date in effect at such time (the “Existing Maturity Date”) by one year; provided that the Existing Maturity Date may be extended no more than two times pursuant to this Section 2.23. Each Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by written notice to the Administrative Agent given not later than the date that is the 30 days prior to the applicable anniversary of the Effective Date, or if such date is not a Business Day, the immediately following Business Day (the “Response Date”), advise the Administrative Agent in writing whether or not such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to the requested extension. Each Lender that advises the Administrative Agent that it will not extend the Existing Maturity Date is referred to herein as a “Non-Extending Lender”; provided, that any Lender that does not advise the Administrative Agent of its consent to such requested extension by the Response Date and any Lender that is a Defaulting Lender on the Response Date shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers, in writing, of the Lenders’ elections promptly following the Response Date. The election of any Lender to agree to such an extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.

(b)

(i) If, by the Response Date, Lenders holding Commitments that aggregate 50% or more of the total Commitments shall constitute Non-Extending Lenders, then the Existing Maturity Date shall not be extended and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder related thereto shall be payable, and the Commitments shall terminate, on the Existing Maturity Date in effect prior to such extension request.

(ii) If (and only if), by the Response Date, Lenders holding Commitments that aggregate more than 50% of the total Commitments (after giving effect to Section 2.23(c) below) shall have agreed to extend the Existing Maturity Date (each such consenting Lender, an “Extending Lender”), then effective on and as of the effective date of the applicable extension under this Section 2.23, the Maturity Date for such Extending Lenders shall be extended to the first anniversary of the Existing Maturity Date (subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.23(d)). In the event of such extension, the Commitment of each Non-Extending Lender shall terminate on the Existing Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Lender prior to such extension and the outstanding principal balance of all Loans and other amounts payable hereunder related thereto to such Non-Extending Lender shall become due and payable on such Existing Maturity Date and, subject to Section 2.23(c) below, the total Commitments hereunder shall be reduced by the Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders so terminated on such Existing Maturity Date.

(c) In the event of any extension of the Existing Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.23(b)(ii), the Borrowers shall have the right on or before the applicable Existing Maturity Date, at their own expense, to require any Non-Extending Lender to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04) all its interests, rights (other than its rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.19 or Section 9.03 arising prior to the effectiveness of such assignment) and obligations under this Agreement to one or more banks or other financial institutions identified to such Non-Extending Lender by the Borrowers, which may include any existing Lender (each a “Replacement Lender”); provided that (i) such Replacement Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and each Swingline Lender (such approvals to not be unreasonably withheld) to the extent the consent of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lenders would be required to effect an assignment under Section 9.04, (ii) such assignment shall become effective as of a date specified by the Borrowers (which shall not be later than the Existing Maturity Date in effect for such Non-Extending Lender prior to the effective date of the requested extension) and (iii) the Replacement Lender shall pay to such Non-Extending Lender in immediately available funds on the effective date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the outstanding principal amount of Loans made by it hereunder and all other amounts accrued and unpaid for its account or otherwise owed to it hereunder on such date.

(d) As a condition precedent to each such extension of the Existing Maturity Date pursuant to Section 2.23(b)(ii) the Borrowers shall (i) deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of each Borrower dated as of the Existing Maturity Date signed by an Authorized Officer of each Borrower certifying that, as of such date, both before and immediately after giving effect to such extension, (A) the representations and warranties of each Borrower set forth in this Agreement and each other Credit Document shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such date (except those representations and warranties that are qualified by “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects), and except to the extent any such representation or warranty is stated to relate solely to an earlier date (other than the Effective Date), in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date (except those representations and warranties that are

qualified by “materiality”, “Material Adverse Effect” or similar language, in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects as of such earlier date) and (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and first make such prepayments of the outstanding Loans as shall be required such that, after giving effect to the termination of the applicable Commitments of the Non-Extending Lenders pursuant to Section 2.23(b) and any assignment pursuant to Section 2.23(c), the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure so provided does not exceed the aggregate amount of applicable Commitments being extended.

(e) For the avoidance of doubt, (i) no consent of any Lender (other than the existing Lenders participating in the extension of the Existing Maturity Date) shall be required for any extension of the Maturity Date pursuant to this Section 2.23 and (ii) the operation of this Section 2.23 in accordance with its terms is not an amendment subject to Section 9.02.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Borrowers may, (i) in the Extension Request delivered to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.23(a), irrevocably elect that all ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments extended pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall be converted to Initial Tranche Commitments on the Existing Maturity Date or (ii) make such election at a later time in accordance with Section 2.09(c).

For the avoidance of doubt, a Default or Event of Default of the Parent or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under this Agreement that does not otherwise constitute a Default or Event of Default of EDJ hereunder, shall not result in a Default or Event of Default of EDJ hereunder and none of EDJ’s rights hereunder shall be impaired as a result of such Default or Event of Default of the Parent or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, including, without limitation, EDJ’s ability to request Borrowings and receive Loans hereunder; provided that, (i) a Default or Event of Default of EDJ under this Agreement shall constitute a Default or Event of Default, as the case may be, of the Parent and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, (ii) a Default or Event of Default of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under this Agreement shall constitute a Default or Event of Default of the Parent and (iii) a Default or Event of Default of the Parent under this Agreement shall constitute a Default or Event of Default of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank.

ARTICLE VII

Guarantee

Section 7.01 Guarantee. In order to induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to execute and deliver this Agreement and to make or maintain the Loans, and in consideration thereof, JFC hereby unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, to the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, the prompt and complete payment and performance by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank when due (whether at

stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents, and JFC further agrees to pay any and all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses to the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one primary counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) and to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) in each relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel and, to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated Persons actually affected by such conflict taken as a whole)), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with the guarantee contained in this Article VII. The guarantee contained in this Article VII, subject to Section 7.05, shall remain in full force and effect until the first date after the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date that the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents are paid in full and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitment is terminated, notwithstanding that from time to time prior thereto ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank may be free from any Obligations under the Credit Documents.

JFC agrees that whenever, at any time, or from time to time, it shall make any payment to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on account of its liability under this Article VII, it will notify the Administrative Agent and such Lender in writing that such payment is made under the guarantee contained in this Article VII for such purpose. No payment or payments made by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any other Person or received or collected by the Administrative Agent or any Lender from ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any other Person by virtue of any action or proceeding or any setoff or appropriation or application, at any time or from time to time, in reduction of or in payment of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents shall be deemed to modify, reduce, release or otherwise affect the liability of JFC under this Article VII which, notwithstanding any such payment or payments, shall remain liable for the unpaid and outstanding Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank until, subject to Section 7.05, the first date after the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date that the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents are paid in full and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitment is terminated.

Section 7.02 No Subrogation. Notwithstanding any payment made by JFC pursuant to this Article VII or any set-off or application of funds of JFC by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection with the guarantee contained in this Article VII, JFC shall not be entitled to be subrogated to any of the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any guarantee or right of offset held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents, nor shall JFC seek or be entitled to seek any contribution or reimbursement from ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank in respect of payments made by JFC under this Article VII, until the first date after the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date that all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders on account of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents are paid in full and the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitment is terminated. If any amount shall be paid to JFC on account of such subrogation rights at any time when all of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be held by JFC in trust for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, segregated from other funds of JFC, and shall, forthwith upon receipt by JFC, be turned over to

the Administrative Agent in the exact form received by JFC (duly indorsed by JFC to the Administrative Agent, if required), to be applied against the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents, whether matured or unmatured, in such order as the Administrative Agent may determine. The provisions of this Section 7.02 shall survive the term of the guarantee contained in this Article VII and the payment in full of the Obligations under the Credit Documents and the termination of the Commitments.

Section 7.03 Amendments, etc. with respect to the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank. JFC shall remain obligated under this Article VII notwithstanding that, without any reservation of rights against JFC, and without notice to or further assent by JFC, any demand for payment of or reduction in the principal amount of any of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be rescinded by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, and any of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents continued, and the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents, or the liability of any other party upon or for any part thereof, or any guarantee therefor or right of offset with respect thereto, may, from time to time, in whole or in part, be renewed, extended, amended, modified, accelerated, compromised, waived, surrendered or released by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and this Agreement and any other documents executed and delivered in connection herewith may be amended, modified, supplemented or terminated, in whole or in part, as the Lenders (or the Required Lenders, as the case may be) may deem advisable from time to time, and any guarantee or right of offset at any time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for the payment of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents may be sold, exchanged, waived, surrendered or released. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation for the guarantee contained in this Article VII.

Section 7.04 Guarantee Absolute and Unconditional. JFC waives (in its capacity as Guarantor) any and all notice of the creation, renewal, extension or accrual of any of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents and notice of or proof of reliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the guarantee contained in this Article VII or acceptance of the guarantee contained in this Article VII; the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents shall conclusively be deemed to have been created, contracted or incurred, or renewed, extended, amended or waived, in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article VII; and all dealings between JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, on the one hand, and the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on the other, shall likewise be conclusively presumed to have been had or consummated in reliance upon the guarantee contained in this Article VII. JFC waives (in its capacity as Guarantor) diligence, presentment, protest, demand for payment and notice of default or nonpayment to or upon JFC or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank with respect to the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents. To the full extent permitted by law, the guarantee contained in this Article VII shall be construed as a continuing, absolute and unconditional guarantee of payment without regard to (a) the validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents or any guarantee or right of offset with respect thereto at any time or from time to time held by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (b) the legality under applicable laws of repayment by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents or the adoption of any requirement of law purporting to render any Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents null and void, (c) any defense, setoff or counterclaim (other than a

defense of payment or performance by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank) which may at any time be available to or be asserted by JFC against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, (d) any change in ownership of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, any merger or consolidation of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank into another Person or any loss of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank’s separate legal identity or existence, or (e) any other circumstance whatsoever (with or without notice to or knowledge of JFC (in its capacity as Guarantor) or ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank) which constitutes, or might be construed to constitute, an equitable or legal discharge of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank for any Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents, or of JFC under the guarantee contained in this Article VII in bankruptcy or in any other instance. When the Administrative Agent or any Lender is pursuing its rights and remedies under this Article VII against JFC, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may, but shall be under no obligation to, pursue such rights and remedies as it may have against ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any other Person or against any guarantee for the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents or any right of offset with respect thereto, and any failure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pursue such other rights or remedies or to collect any payments from ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any such other Person or to realize upon any guarantee or to exercise any such right of offset, or any release of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any such other Person or of any such guarantee or right of offset, shall not relieve JFC of any liability under this Article VII and shall not impair or affect the rights and remedies, whether express, implied or available as a matter of law, of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders against JFC; provided that (for the avoidance of doubt), as of the date hereof, there are no guarantors, other than JFC.

Section 7.05 Reinstatement. The guarantee contained in this Article VII shall continue to be effective, or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment, performance or satisfaction, or any part thereof, of any of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents is rescinded, disaffirmed or repudiated or must otherwise be restored or returned by the Administrative Agent or any Lender upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, dissolution, liquidation or reorganization of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or upon or as a result of the appointment of a receiver, intervenor or conservator of, or trustee or similar officer for, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or any substantial part of its property, or otherwise, all as though such payments had not been made.

Section 7.06 Payments. JFC hereby agrees that any payments in respect of the Obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank under the Credit Documents pursuant to this Article VII will be paid to the Administrative Agent without setoff or counterclaim in dollars, at the office of the Administrative Agent specified in Section 9.01.

Section 7.07 Independent Obligations. The obligations of JFC under the guarantee contained in Article VII are independent of the obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against JFC whether or not ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank be joined in any such action or actions. JFC waives, to the full extent permitted by law, the benefit of any statute of limitations affecting its liability hereunder or the enforcement thereof. Any payment by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank or other circumstance which operates to toll any statute of limitations as to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank shall operate to toll the statute of limitations as to JFC.

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and Co-Syndication Agents

Section 8.01 Authorization and Action. (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent under the Credit Documents and each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Credit Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Credit Documents. Additionally, without limiting the foregoing, each Lender hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent on the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date to reallocate (i) all then-existing Initial Tranche Commitments and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Tranche Commitments ratably according to their Applicable Percentages to effect the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date Reallocation and (ii) all then-existing Initial Tranche Loans and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Loans ratably according to their Applicable Percentages to effect the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date Reallocation and, in each case, take all such other actions as the Administrative Agent reasonably determines may be necessary or advisable in connection therewith to effect the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ Bank Effective Date Reallocation.

(b) As to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Credit Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Credit Documents), and, unless and until revoked in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Credit Document or applicable law, including any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as Administrative Agent, or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial

100

liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. The motivations of the Administrative Agent are commercial in nature and not to invest in the general performance or operations of the Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

(i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Credit Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(ii) nothing in this Agreement or any Credit Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account;

(d) The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Credit Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.

(e) None of any Co-Syndication Agent or any Lead Arranger shall have obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but all such persons shall have the benefit of the indemnities provided for hereunder.

101

(f) In case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or other Obligation of any Loan Party under the Credit Documents shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise

(i) To file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid in connection with the Credit Documents and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.13, 2.14, 2.16, 2.18 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

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

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents (including under Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations of such Borrower under the Credit Documents or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

(g) The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and, except solely to the extent of each Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Loan Parties or any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions. Each Lender, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the guarantee provided under the Credit Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article.

Section 8.02 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification, Etc. (a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such party, the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Credit Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by

102

any Loan Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of Default” or a “notice of an Event of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Credit 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 Credit Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(b) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), 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, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a telecopy, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Credit Documents for being the maker thereof).

Section 8.03 Posting of Communications. (a) Each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar

103

or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

(b) Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system) and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there are confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders and each Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY LEAD ARRANGER, ANY CO-SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.

“Communications” means, collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Credit Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent or any Lender by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform.

(d) Each Lender agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Credit Documents. Each Lender agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could

104

be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

(e) Each of the Lenders and each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document in any other manner specified in such Credit Document.

Section 8.04 The Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitment and Loans (including any Swingline Loans and any Uncommitted Swingline Loans), the Person serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender. The terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender or as one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with, any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

Section 8.05 Successor Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrowers, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders, and shall have accepted such appointment, within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent, which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrowers (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to, and become vested with, all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Credit Documents.

(b) Notwithstanding paragraph (a) of this Section, 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 Borrowers, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Credit Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.03, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Credit Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative 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 the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above.

Section 8.06 Acknowledgements of Lenders. (a) Each Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Credit Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business, and is making the Loans hereunder as commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and not for the purpose of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument (and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing) or for the purpose of investing in the general performance or operations of any Borrower, (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Lead Arranger, any Co-Syndication Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrowers and their respective Affiliates) 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 Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other

106

Credit Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date.

(c) (i) 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 8.06(c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(ii) 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.

(iii) Each Borrower and the Guarantor hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender that

107

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 arising under any Credit Document owed by any Borrower or the Guarantor; provided that this ‎Section 8.06(c) shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the Obligations arising under any Credit Document of any Borrower or Guarantor relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the Obligations arising under any Credit Document that would have been payable had such erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, immediately preceding clauses (x) and (y) shall not apply to the extent any such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from or on behalf of (including through the exercise of remedies under any Credit Document), any Borrower or Guarantor for the purpose of a payment on the Obligations arising under any Credit Document.

(iv) Each party’s obligations under this Section 8.06(c) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations arising under any Credit Document.

(d) The Lenders acknowledge that there may be a constant flow of information (including information which may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Loan Parties) between the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its Affiliates, on the other hand. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties or their Affiliates may provide information, including updates to previously provided information to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and/or its Affiliates acting in different capacities, including as Lender, lead bank, arranger or potential securities investor, independent of such entity’s role as administrative agent hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that neither JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. nor its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to provide any of the foregoing information to them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Credit Document, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide, and shall not be liable for the failure to provide, any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Loans, the Lenders, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to, obtained by, or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, including any information obtained by the Administrative Agent in the course of communications among the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such information may (but shall not be required to) be shared by the Administrative Agent with one or more Lenders, or any formal or informal committee or ad hoc group of such Lenders, including at the direction of a Loan Party.

(a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and each Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower or the Guarantor, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans or the Commitments,

(iii) (1) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (2) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, (3) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(b) In addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and each Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers or the Guarantor, that none of the Administrative Agent, or any Lead Arranger or any Co-Syndication Agent or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of

109

any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Credit Document or any documents related to hereto or thereto).

(c) The Administrative Agent, each Lead Arranger and each Co-Syndication Agent hereby informs the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking to provide investment advice, or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Commitments, this Agreement and any other Credit Document, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans or the Commitments for an amount less than the amount being paid for an interest in the Loans or the Commitments by such Lender or (iii) may receive fees or other payments in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, the Credit Documents or otherwise, including structuring fees, commitment fees, arrangement fees, facility fees, upfront fees, underwriting fees, ticking fees, agency fees, administrative agent fees, utilization fees, minimum usage fees, letter of credit fees, fronting fees, deal-away or alternate transaction fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or fees similar to the foregoing.

(a) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders agree that the Borrowers may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Borrower Communications to the Administrative Agent through an electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Borrower Portal”).

(b) Although the Approved Borrower Portal and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system), each of the Lenders and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of the Borrowers that are added to the Approved Borrower Portal, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders and each Borrower hereby approves distribution of Borrower Communications through the Approved Borrower Portal and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

(c) THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER COMMUNICATION, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL AND THE BORROWER COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL. IN NO EVENT SHALL ANY APPLICABLE PARTY HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER

110

PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY BORROWER’S TRANSMISSION OF BORROWER COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL.

Section 9.02 Waivers; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder 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 and the Lenders hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, 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 shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.

(b) Subject to Section 2.15(b) and (c), neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) increase any Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder or under the Credit Documents, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iii) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby, (iv) change Section 2.19(b) or Section 2.19(c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, or change Section 2.09(d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata commitment reduction required thereby, in each case without the written consent of each Lender adversely affected thereby, (v) change Section 2.21 without the consent of the Swingline Lenders and the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders, (vi) release the guaranty contained in Article VII with respect to Edward Jones Bank without the written consent of each Lender or (vii) change any of the provisions of this Section or reduce any number or percentage set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders or the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders or the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, with the consent of the Borrowers, may amend, modify or supplement any Credit Document without the consent of any Lender or the Required Lenders in order to correct, amend or cure any ambiguity, inconsistency or defect or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Credit Document. Notwithstanding the foregoing, technical and

113

conforming modifications to the Credit Documents may be made with the consent of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to the extent necessary to integrate any Incremental Commitments on substantially the same basis as the Loans (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the amendments contemplated by the proviso of Section 2.22(a)(ii)).

Section 9.03 Expenses; Limitation of Liability; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a) Expenses. Each Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers and each of their respective Affiliates, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses to the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one primary counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) and to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) in each relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel and, to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated Persons actually affected by such conflict taken as a whole)) in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, or any amendments, supplements, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (in each case, whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable, documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, including the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of counsel (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses to the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one primary counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) and to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) in each relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel and, to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated Persons actually affected by such conflict taken as a whole)), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Document, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans and (iii) any charges of IntraLinks/IntraAgency or other relevant website or CUSIP charges.

No Lender-Related Person shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and

114

nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or a material breach by such Indemnitee of the express obligations hereunder.

(c) Indemnity. Each Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Co-Syndication Agent, the Lead Arrangers and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, penalties and related expenses (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented fees and expenses of one primary counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) and to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel for all Persons (taken as a whole) in each relevant jurisdiction (and, solely in the case of a conflict of interest, one additional counsel and, to the extent reasonably necessary, one regulatory and local counsel in each relevant jurisdiction to each group of similarly situated Persons actually affected by such conflict taken as a whole)), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (1) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby or the use or proposed use of proceeds hereof, (2) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by any Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or (3) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not the same are brought by any Borrower, its equity holders, affiliates or creditors or any other Person; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses (x) are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or any of its Related Parties, or the material breach of any of such Indemnitee’s or any of its Related Parties’ express obligations hereunder or (y) arise from disputes solely among Indemnitees that do not involve any act or omission by any Borrower or any of its Related Parties, other than claims against any Indemnitee in its capacity or fulfilling its role as agent, arranger or bookrunner or similar role under this Agreement, and provided further, that this Section 9.03(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(d) Lender Reimbursement. To the extent that any Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lenders or the Uncommitted Swingline Lenders, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Agent-Related Person”) under paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section, each Lender severally agrees to pay such Agent-Related Person such Lender’s Applicable Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) (or, if such payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage immediately prior to such date) of such unpaid amount and agrees to indemnify and hold each Agent-Related Person harmless from and against any and all Liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted

115

against such Agent-Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent-Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; 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 Agent-Related Person in their capacities as such; provided further that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent-Related Person’s gross negligence or willful misconduct.

(e) Payments. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable promptly within five (5) Business Days after written demand therefor.

Section 9.04 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, except that (i) no Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) (i) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:

(A) each Borrower, provided that no consent of the Borrowers shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if any Event of Default under Section 6.01(a) or (f) with respect to the Borrowers has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee (it being understood that each Borrower will be deemed to have consented to an assignment if it has not objected thereto within 5 Business Days following notice thereof); and

(B) the Administrative Agent and each Swingline Lender, provided that no consent of the Administrative Agent or any Swingline Lender shall be required for an assignment of any Commitment to an assignee that is a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) with a Commitment immediately prior to giving effect to such assignment.

116

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’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 $5,000,000 unless each Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrowers shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of all Classes under this Agreement on a pro rata basis);

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500;

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain material non-public information about the Borrowers and its related parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including federal and state securities laws;

(E) assignments shall not be made to any Person who is a natural person or who is, or would upon the effectiveness of any such assignment become, a Defaulting Lender; and

(F) assignments shall not be made to any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower.

For the purposes of this Section 9.04(b), the term “Approved Fund” has the following meaning:

“Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.

117

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue, to the extent permitted by applicable law, to be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.18 and Section 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 9.04 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 paragraph (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Borrower, 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 amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, 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 payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.05(c), Section 2.06(c), Section 2.07(b), Section 2.19(d) or Section 9.03(d), 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 paragraph.

(vi) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks

118

or other entities (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 (1) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (2) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations, (3) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and (4) no participation shall be sold to any natural person, any Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Borrower. 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 9.02(b) that affects such Participant. Each Borrower agrees that, to the extent permitted by applicable law, each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16, Section 2.17 and Section 2.18 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.18(f) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.18(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 2.16 and Section 2.18 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 or Section 2.18, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from an adoption of or any Change in Law made subsequent to the Effective Date that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.19(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Borrower, 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 portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans or its other obligations under any Credit Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

119

(c) Any Lender may 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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

Section 9.05 Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by each Borrower herein and in the other Credit Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent 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, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Section 2.16, Section 2.17, Section 2.18 and Section 9.03 and Article VIII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

Section 9.06 Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. (a) This Agreement and the other Credit Documents may each 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 Credit Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01 and Section 4.03, as applicable, this Agreement and each other Credit Document shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof and thereof, as applicable, which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto and thereto, as applicable, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and thereto, as applicable, and their respective successors and assigns.

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Credit Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to ‎Section 9.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this

120

Agreement, such other Credit Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), 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; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower or the Guarantor without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic Signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower and the Guarantor hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Guarantor and the Borrowers, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (B) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), provided that no such copy of any Note shall increase the Obligations due under the Credit Documents, (C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Credit Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim against any Lender-Related Person for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of any Borrower and/or the Guarantor to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

Section 9.07 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.

121

Section 9.08 Right of Set off. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender and each of their respective 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, but not including (i) trust accounts, (ii) any asset, Securities or other property right of any Borrower or any of their respective Subsidiaries held solely as a fiduciary or otherwise for the benefit of another Person and (iii) any other asset, Securities or account with respect to which such set-off right or the grant of such set-off right would be restricted by applicable law or regulation including, without limitation, Rule 15c3-3, Rule 8c-1 or Rule 15c2-1 of the General Rules and Regulations promulgated by the SEC under the Securities Exchange Act) at any time held and other obligations at any time owing by such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of the applicable Borrower against any of and all the obligations of such Borrower now or hereafter existing under this Agreement or any other Credit Document held by such Lender or its Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender or Affiliate shall have made any demand under this Agreement or any other Credit Document and although such obligations may be unmatured; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so setoff shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of ‎Section 2.21 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The rights of each Lender and its Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender or its Affiliates may have. Each Lender agrees to notify the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent promptly after any such setoff and application; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application.

Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

(b) EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN SECTION 9.12(a) FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MATERIAL NON-PUBLIC INFORMATION CONCERNING EACH BORROWER AND ITS 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.

Section 9.14 USA PATRIOT ACT. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) hereby notifies each Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender to identify each Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

Section 9.15 No Fiduciary Duty. (a) Each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations with respect to the credit facility, the Credit Documents, the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to such Borrower with respect to the Credit Documents and the transactions contemplated herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, any Borrower or any other person. Each Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising any Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. Each Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Credit Documents, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to any Borrower with respect thereto.

125

(b) Each Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its Affiliates, in addition to providing or participating in commercial lending facilities such as that provided hereunder, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, any Borrower and other companies with which a Borrower may have commercial or other relationships.

Each Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Credit Documents, or to furnish to any Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies.

Section 9.16 Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Credit Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Credit Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Credit Document; or

126

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority.

Section 9.17 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Hedge 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 Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Credit Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

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