2.1.2Notes. The Loans made by each Lender and interest accruing thereon shall be evidenced by the records of the Administrative Agent and such Lender. At the request of any Lender, the Borrowers shall deliver a Note to such Lender.

2.1.3Use of Proceeds.

The Borrowers shall not, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loans (i) to fund any activities or business of or with any Person that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of Sanctions or located in any Designated Jurisdiction, or (ii) in a way that would result in a violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws or Sanctions by the Borrowers or any of their Subsidiaries or, to the knowledge of the Borrowers, any Person participating in the Loans (whether as underwriter, advisor, investor, or otherwise).

2.1.4Increase in Commitments.

(a)Borrowers may by written notice to the Administrative Agent elect to request the establishment of one or more new term loan commitments (each, an “Incremental Commitment”), by an aggregate amount not in excess of U.S.$50,000,000. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrowers propose that the Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the identity of each Eligible Assignee to whom the Borrowers propose any portion of such Incremental Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations; provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitment. Each Incremental Commitment shall be in an aggregate amount of U.S.$10,000,000 or any whole multiple of U.S.$500,000 in excess thereof (provided that such amount may be less than U.S.$10,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the aggregate limit in respect of Incremental Commitments set forth in above).

(b)The Incremental Commitments shall become effective as of the Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i)each of the conditions set forth in Section 6.2 shall be satisfied;

(ii)the Borrowers shall be in compliance with (x) the covenants set forth in Sections 10.3.1 and 10.3.2 as of the end of the latest fiscal quarter for which internal financial statements are available, and (y) the covenant set forth in Section 10.3.3 as of

-24-

the Increase Effective Date, in each case calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the proposed Incremental Loan, and, in the case of the covenants set forth in Sections 10.3.1 and 10.3.2, as if such Incremental Loan had been incurred at the beginning of the applicable testing period for each such covenant; and

(iii)the Borrowers shall deliver or cause to be delivered officer’s certificates and legal opinions of the type delivered on the Closing Date to the extent reasonably requested by, and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent.

(d)The Incremental Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (each, an “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender making such Incremental Commitment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of them. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 14.1, the Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.1.4. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in Loan Documents to Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Incremental Loans made pursuant to this Agreement. This Section 2.1.4 shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.5 or Section 14.1 to the contrary.

SECTION 3INTEREST, FEES AND CHARGES

3.1.Interest.

3.1.1.Rates and Payment of Interest

(a)The Obligations shall bear interest (i) if a Base Rate Loan, at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin; (ii) if a LIBOR Loan, at LIBOR for the applicable Interest Period, plus the Applicable Margin; and (iii) if any other Obligation (including, to the extent permitted by law, interest not paid when due), at the Base Rate in effect from time to time, plus the Applicable Margin. Interest shall accrue from the date the Loan is advanced or the Obligation is incurred or payable, until paid by the Borrowers. If a Loan is repaid on the same day made, one day’s interest shall accrue.

(b)During an Insolvency Proceeding with respect to any Borrower, or during any other Event of Default if Administrative Agent or Required Lenders in their discretion so elect, Obligations shall bear interest at the Default Rate (whether before or after any judgment). Each Borrower acknowledges that the cost and expense to the Administrative Agent and Lenders due to an Event of Default are difficult to ascertain and that the Default Rate is fair and reasonable compensation for this.

(c)Interest accrued on the Loans shall be due and payable in arrears, (i) (x) with respect to any LIBOR Loan, the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan; provided, however, that if any Interest Period for a LIBOR Loan exceeds three (3) months, interest accrued on such Loan shall also be due and payable on the respective dates that fall every three (3) months after the beginning of such Interest Period and (y) with respect any Base Rate Loan, on the first day of each month; (ii) on any date of prepayment, with respect to the principal amount of Loans being prepaid; and (iii) on

-25-

the Termination Date. Interest accrued on any other Obligations shall be due and payable as provided in the Loan Documents and, if no payment date is specified, shall be due and payable on demand. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest accrued at the Default Rate shall be due and payable on demand.

3.1.2.Application of LIBOR to Outstanding Loans.

(a)Borrowers may on any Business Day, subject to delivery of a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, elect to convert any portion of Base Rate Loans to, or to continue any LIBOR Loan at the end of its Interest Period as, a LIBOR Loan. During any Default or Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may (and shall at the direction of Required Lenders) declare that no Loan may be made, converted or continued as a LIBOR Loan.

(b)Whenever Borrowers desire to convert or continue Loans as LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall give Administrative Agent a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, no later than 11:00 a.m. at least three Business Days before the requested conversion or continuation date. Promptly after receiving any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender thereof. Each Notice of Conversion/Continuation shall be irrevocable, and shall specify the amount of Loans to be converted or continued, the conversion or continuation date (which shall be a Business Day), and the duration of the Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be 30 days if not specified). If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall have failed to deliver a Notice of Conversion/Continuation, it shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Loans into Base Rate Loans. Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, nor shall it have any liability with respect to, administration, submission or any other matter related to any rate described in the definition of LIBOR.

3.1.3.Interest Periods. In connection with the making, conversion or continuation of any LIBOR Loans, Borrower Agent shall select an interest period (“Interest Period”) to apply, which interest period shall be a period of one month, two months, three months, six months or, with the approval of all affected Lenders, nine months; provided, however, that:

(a)the Interest Period shall commence on the date the Loan is made or continued as, or converted into, a LIBOR Loan, and shall expire on the numerically corresponding day in the applicable calendar month at its end;

(b)if any Interest Period commences on a day for which there is no corresponding day in the applicable calendar month at its end or if such corresponding day falls after the last Business Day of such month, then the Interest Period shall expire on the last Business Day of such month; and if any Interest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, the period shall expire on the next Business Day; and

(c)no Interest Period shall extend beyond the Termination Date.

3.1.4.Interest Rate Not Ascertainable. If the Administrative Agent shall determine that on any date for determining LIBOR adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining such rate on the basis provided herein, then the Administrative Agent shall immediately notify the Borrowers of such determination. Until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that such circumstance no longer exists, the obligation of the Lenders to make LIBOR Loans shall be suspended, and no further Loans may be converted into or continued as LIBOR Loans.

3.2.     [Intentionally Omitted.]

-26-

3.3.Computation of Interest, Fees, Yield Protection. All computations of interest for LIBOR Loans shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed. All other computations of interest, as well as fees and other charges calculated on a per annum basis, shall be computed for the actual days elapsed, based on a year of 365 days. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of any interest, fees or interest rate hereunder shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error. All fees shall be fully earned when due and shall not be subject to rebate, refund or proration. A certificate as to amounts payable by Borrowers under Section 3.4, 3.6, 3.7,3.9 or 5.9, submitted to Borrower Agent by the Administrative Agent or the affected Lender, as applicable, shall be final, conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrowers shall pay such amounts to the appropriate party within 10 days following receipt of the certificate.

3.4.Reimbursement Obligations. Borrowers shall reimburse the Administrative Agent and Lenders for all Extraordinary Expenses. Borrowers shall also reimburse the Administrative Agent for all reasonable legal, accounting, appraisal, consulting, and other fees, costs and expenses incurred by it in connection with (a) negotiation and preparation of any Loan Documents, including any amendment or other modification thereof; (b) administration of and actions relating to any Collateral, Loan Documents and transactions contemplated thereby, including (i) any actions taken to perfect or maintain priority of the Administrative Agent’s Liens on any Collateral, to maintain any insurance required hereunder or to verify Collateral and (ii) the Platform or any other dedicated agency web page on the internet to distribute to the Lenders and to other investors or potential investors any required documentation and financial information regarding the Loan Documents and the Loans; and (c) subject to the limits of Sections 10.1.1(b) and 10.1.10, each inspection, audit or appraisal with respect to any Obligor or Collateral, whether prepared by the Administrative Agent’s personnel or a third party. Legal, accounting and consulting fees may be charged to Borrowers by the Administrative Agent’s professionals at their usual and customary hourly rates for similar services, regardless of any reduced or alternative fee billing arrangements that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates may have with such professionals with respect to this or any other transaction. Borrowers acknowledge that counsel may provide the Administrative Agent with a benefit, such as a discount, credit or other accommodation, based on counsel’s overall relationship with the Administrative Agent, including fees paid hereunder. All amounts payable by Borrowers under this Section shall be due on demand.

3.5.Illegality. If any Lender determines that any Applicable Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund LIBOR Loans, or to determine interest rates or charge interest based upon LIBOR, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, U.S. Dollars in the London interbank market, any other relevant interbank market or the position of such Lender in such market then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to make or continue LIBOR Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon delivery of such notice, Borrowers shall prepay all LIBOR Loans of such Lender or convert all LIBOR Loans of such Lender to Base Rate Loans, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such LIBOR Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Base Rate Loans. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid or converted.

3.6.Inability to Determine Rates. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify Borrower Agent and Lenders if, in connection with any request for a Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) deposits are not being offered to banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such currency for the applicable amount and Interest

-27-

Period of such Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining LIBOR for the requested Interest Period, or (b) the Administrative Agent or Required Lenders determine for any reason that LIBOR for the requested Interest Period does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain LIBOR Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent (upon instruction by Required Lenders) withdraws such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, Borrower Agent may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a LIBOR Loan or, failing that, the Borrower Agent will be deemed to have submitted a request for a Base Rate Loan.

3.7.Increased Costs; Capital Adequacy.

3.7.1.Increased Costs Generally. If any Change in Law shall:

(a)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, liquidity, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in LIBOR);

(b)subject any Recipient to Taxes (other than (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, and (iii) Connection Income Taxes) with respect to any Loan, Commitment or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(c)impose on any Lender or any interbank market any other condition, cost or expense affecting any Loan, Loan Document or Commitment;

and the result thereof shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan, Commitment, or converting to or continuing any interest option for a Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or any other amount) then, upon request of such Lender, the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

3.7.2.Capital Requirements. If any Lender determines that any Change in Law affecting such Lender or any Lending Office of such Lender or such Lender’s holding company, if any, regarding capital requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such holding company’s capital as a consequence of this Agreement, or such Lender’s Commitments or Loans to a level below that which such Lender or such holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s and such holding company’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate it or its holding company for any such reduction suffered.

3.7.3.Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of its right to demand such compensation, but Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than nine months prior to the date that the Lender notifies Borrower Agent of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

-28-

3.8.Mitigation. If any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay additional amounts with respect to a Lender under Section 5.9, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different Lending Office 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 (a) would eliminate the need for such notice or reduce amounts payable or to be withheld in the future, as applicable; and (b) would not subject the Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to it or unlawful. Borrowers shall pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

3.9.Funding Losses. If for any reason (other than default by a Lender) (a) any Borrowing of, or conversion to or continuation of, a LIBOR Loan does not occur on the date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation (whether or not withdrawn), (b) any repayment or conversion of a LIBOR Loan occurs on a day other than the end of its Interest Period, (c) the Borrowers fail to repay a LIBOR Loan when required hereunder, or (d) a Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender) is required to assign a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period pursuant to Section 13.4, then the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent its customary administrative charge and to each Lender all resulting losses and expenses, including loss of anticipated profits and any loss or expense arising from liquidation or redeployment of funds or from fees payable to terminate deposits of matching funds. Lenders shall not be required to purchase U.S. Dollar deposits in any interbank or offshore U.S. Dollar market to fund any LIBOR Loan, but this Section shall apply as if each Lender had purchased such deposits.

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

Each Notice of Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (A) the amount of the Borrowing, (B) the requested funding date (which must be a Business Day), (C) whether the Borrowing is to be made as Base Rate Loans or LIBOR Loans, and (D) in the case of LIBOR Loans, the duration of the applicable Interest Period (which shall be deemed to be one month if not specified).

-29-

(b)Unless payment is otherwise timely made by Borrowers, the becoming due of any Obligations (whether principal, interest, fees or other charges, including Extraordinary Expenses) shall be deemed to be a request for Base Rate Loans on the due date, in the amount of such Obligations. The proceeds of such Loans shall be disbursed as direct payment of the relevant Obligation. In addition, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, charge such Obligations against any operating, investment or other account of a Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates.

4.1.2.Fundings by Lenders. Each Lender shall timely honor its Commitment by funding its Pro Rata share of each Borrowing of Loans that is properly requested hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall endeavor to notify the Lenders of each Notice of Borrowing (or deemed request for a Borrowing) by 12:00 noon on the proposed funding date for Base Rate Loans or by 3:00 p.m. at least two Business Days before any proposed funding of LIBOR Loans. Each Lender shall fund to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the Borrowing to the account specified by the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested funding date, unless the Administrative Agent’s notice is received after the times provided above, in which case the Lender shall fund its Pro Rata share by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Subject to its receipt of such amounts from the Lenders, the Administrative Agent shall disburse the proceeds of the Loans as directed by Borrower Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received (in sufficient time to act) written notice from a Lender that it does not intend to fund its Pro Rata share of a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has deposited or promptly will deposit its share with the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may disburse a corresponding amount to Borrowers.

4.1.3.[Intentionally Omitted.]

4.1.4.Notices. Borrowers may request, convert or continue Loans, select interest rates, and transfer funds based on telephonic or e-mailed instructions to the Administrative Agent. Borrowers shall confirm each such request by prompt delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, if applicable, but if such notice differs materially from the action taken by the Administrative Agent or the Lenders pursuant to the telephonic or e-mailed instructions from Borrowers, the records of the Administrative Agent and such Lenders shall govern. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any liability for any loss suffered by a Borrower as a result of the Administrative Agent or any Lender acting upon its understanding of telephonic or e-mailed instructions from a person believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to be a person authorized to give such instructions on a Borrower’s behalf.

4.2.Defaulting Lender.

4.2.1.Reallocation of Pro Rata Share; Amendments. For purposes of determining Lenders’ obligations or rights to fund or receive collections with respect to Loans, the Administrative Agent may exclude the Commitments and Loans of a Defaulting Lender from the calculation of Pro Rata shares. A Defaulting Lender shall have no right to vote on any amendment, waiver or other modification of a Loan Document, except as provided in Section 14.1.1(b).

4.2.2.Payments; Fees. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, receive and retain any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender under the Loan Documents, and a Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned to the Administrative Agent such amounts until all Obligations owing to the Administrative Agent, non-Defaulting Lenders and other Secured Parties have been paid in full. The Administrative Agent may apply such amounts to the Defaulting Lender’s defaulted obligations or readvance the amounts to Borrowers hereunder.

-30-

4.2.3.Status; Cure. The Administrative Agent may determine in its discretion that a Lender constitutes a Defaulting Lender and the effective date of such status shall be conclusive and binding on all parties, absent manifest error. Borrowers and the Administrative Agent may agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, whereupon Pro Rata shares shall be reallocated without exclusion of the reinstated Lender’s Commitments and Loans, and all outstanding Loans and other exposures under the Commitments shall be reallocated among the Lenders and settled by the Administrative Agent (with appropriate payments by the reinstated Lender, including payment of any breakage costs for reallocated LIBOR Loans) in accordance with the readjusted Pro Rata shares. Unless expressly agreed by Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, no reinstatement of a Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of claims against such Lender. The failure of any Lender to fund a Loan or otherwise to perform its obligations hereundershall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations, and no Lender shall be responsible for default by another Lender.

4.3.Number and Amount of LIBOR Loans; Determination of Rate. Each Borrowing of LIBOR Loans when made shall be in a minimum amount of U.S.$10,000,000, plus any increment of U.S.$1,000,000 in excess thereof. No more than six (6) Borrowings of LIBOR Loans may be outstanding at any time, and all LIBOR Loans having the same length and beginning date of their Interest Periods shall be aggregated together and considered one Borrowing for this purpose. Upon determining LIBOR for any Interest Period requested by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers thereof by telephone or electronically and, if requested by such Borrowers, shall confirm any telephonic notice in writing.

4.4.Borrower Agent. Each Borrower hereby designates UNFI (“Borrower Agent”) as its representative and agent for all purposes under the Loan Documents, including requests for Loans, designation of interest rates, delivery or receipt of communications, preparation and delivery of financial reports, receipt and payment of Obligations, requests for waivers, amendments or other accommodations, actions under the Loan Documents (including in respect of compliance with covenants), and all other dealings with the Administrative Agent or any Lender. Borrower Agent hereby accepts such appointment. The Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall be fully protected in relying upon, any notice or communication (including any notice of borrowing) delivered by Borrower Agent on behalf of any Borrower. The Administrative Agent and Lenders may give any notice or communication with a Borrower hereunder to Borrower Agent on behalf of such Borrower. The Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have the right, in its discretion, to deal exclusively with Borrower Agent for any or all purposes under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that any notice, election, communication, representation, agreement or undertaking made on its behalf by Borrower Agent shall be binding upon and enforceable against it.

4.5.One Obligation. The Loans and other Obligations constitute one general obligation of Borrowers and are secured by the Administrative Agent’s Lien on all Collateral; provided, however, that the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be deemed to be a creditor of, and the holder of a separate claim against, each Borrower to the extent of any Obligations jointly or severally owed by such Borrower.

4.6.Effect of Termination. Until Full Payment of the Obligations, all undertakings of Borrowers contained in the Loan Documents shall continue, and the Administrative Agent shall retain its Liens in the Collateral and all of its rights and remedies under the Loan Documents. No Agent shall be required to terminate its Liens unless it receives Cash Collateral or a written agreement, in each case satisfactory to it, protecting the Administrative Agent and Lenders from the dishonor or return of any Payment Items previously applied to the Obligations. Sections 3.4, 3.7, 3.9, 5.5,5.9, 5.10, 12, 14.2, thisSection, and each indemnity or waiver given by an Obligor or Lender in any Loan Document, shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations.

-31-

SECTION 5. PAYMENTS

5.1.General Payment Provisions. All payments of Obligations shall be made in U.S. Dollars, without offset, counterclaim or defense of any kind, free of (and without deduction for) any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law, and in immediately available funds, not later than 12:00 noon on the due date. If any payment to be made by any Borrower shall come due on a day other than a Business Day, payment shall be made on the next following Business Day, and such extension of time shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be. Any payment of a LIBOR Loan prior to the end of its Interest Period shall be accompanied by all amounts due under Section 3.9. Any prepayment of Loans shall be applied first to Base Rate Loans and then to LIBOR Loans.

5.2.Repayment of Loans; Obligations.

5.2.1.Payment of Principal.

(a)The principal amount of the Loans (other than any Incremental Loans) shall be repaid on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter in consecutive quarterly installments of $2,500,000, commencing on November 1, 2014 until the Termination Date.

(b)The principal amount of the Incremental Loans shall be repaid on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter in consecutive quarterly installments, each in an amount equal to one-sixtieth (1/60) of the aggregate initial principal amount of such Incremental Loans, commencing on the first day of the first Fiscal Quarter that is at least sixty (60) days after the funding of such Incremental Loans and continuing on the first day of each Fiscal Quarter thereafter until the Termination Date.

(c)On the Termination Date, all principal, interest and other amounts owing with respect to all Loans shall be due and payable in full. Each installment referenced in clauses (a) and (b) above shall be paid to Administrative Agent for the Pro Rata benefit of the applicable Lenders providing the applicable Loans. Once repaid, whether such repayment is voluntary or required, no Loans may be reborrowed.

5.2.2.Mandatory Prepayments.

(a)Concurrently with any disposition of any Collateral, Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an amount equal to the Net Proceeds of such disposition;

(b)Concurrently with the receipt of any proceeds of insurance or condemnation awards paid in respect of any Collateral, Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an amount equal to such proceeds, subject to Section 7.2.1; and

(c)Concurrently with a Revolving Commitment Extension, Borrowers shall prepay that portion of the Obligations (inclusive of, for the avoidance of doubt, accrued interest) allocable to each Non-Renewing Lender, except to the extent such Non-Renewing Lender has assigned its rights and obligations in respect of such Obligations to an Eligible Assignee, it being understood that, notwithstanding Section 12.5, such prepayment shall be treated as a non-Pro Rata payment to such Lender.

(d)On or prior to the tenth (10th) day after the Borrower Agent receives a notice from the Administrative Agent that the Borrowers are not in compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 10.3.3, the Borrowers shall prepay Loans in an amount necessary to comply with such covenant, calculated after giving effect to such prepayment and, upon the making of such prepayment during such

-32-

ten-day period, any Default or Event of Default deemed to have occurred solely as a result of such noncompliance shall be deemed to have been cured.

5.2.3.Optional Prepayments. Borrowers may, at their option from time to time, prepay the Loans, which prepayment must be at least U.S.$5,000,000, plus any increment of U.S.$1,000,000 in excess thereof. Borrowers shall give written notice to the Administrative Agent of an intended prepayment of Loans, which notice shall specify the amount of the prepayment, shall be irrevocable once given, shall be given at least 10 Business Days prior to the end of a month and shall be effective as of the first day of the next month.

5.2.4.Application of Prepayments. Each prepayment of Loans pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.2 shall be applied to the principal repayment installments thereof in inverse order of maturity.

5.3.[Intentionally Omitted.]

5.4.Payment of Other Obligations. Obligations other than Loans, including Extraordinary Expenses, shall be paid by Borrowers as provided in the Loan Documents or, if no payment date is specified, on demand made to the applicable Borrowers.

5.5.Marshaling; Payments Set Aside. None of the Administrative Agent or Lenders shall be under any obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Obligor or against any Obligations. If any payment by or on behalf of Borrowers is made to the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or the Administrative Agent or any Lender exercises a right of setoff, and such payment or the proceeds of such setoff or any part thereof is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential, set aside or required (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion) to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other Person, then to the extent of such recovery, the Obligation originally intended to be satisfied, and all Liens, rights and remedies relating thereto, shall be revived and continued in full force and effect as if such payment had not been made or such setoff had not occurred.

5.6.Application and Allocation of Payments.

5.6.1.Application. Payments made by Borrowers hereunder shall be applied (a) first, as specifically required hereby; (b) second, to Obligations then due and owing; (c) third, to other Obligations specified by Borrowers; and (d) fourth, as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.

5.6.2.Post-Default Allocation. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, during an Event of Default, monies to be applied to the Obligations, whether arising from payments by Obligors, realization on Collateral, setoff or otherwise, shall be allocated as follows:

(a)first, to all fees, indemnification, costs and expenses, including Extraordinary Expenses, owing to the Administrative Agent;

(b)second, to all amounts owing to the Administrative Agent on Loans that a Defaulting Lender has failed to fund;

(c)third, to all Obligations constituting fees, indemnification, costs or expenses owing to Lenders;

-33-

(d)fourth, to all Obligations constituting interest;

(e)fifth, to all Loans; and

(f)last, to all remaining Obligations.

Amounts shall be applied to payment of each category of Obligations only after Full Payment of amounts payable from time to time under all preceding categories. If amounts are insufficient to satisfy a category, they shall be paid ratably among outstanding Obligations in the category. The allocations set forth in this Section are solely to determine the rights and priorities among Secured Parties, and may be changed by agreement of the affected Secured Parties, without the consent of any Obligor. This Section is not for the benefit of or enforceable by any Obligor, and each Borrower irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any payments or Collateral proceeds subject to this Section.

5.6.3.Erroneous Application. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any application of amounts made by it in good faith and, if any such application is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender or other Person to which such amount should have been made shall be to recover the amount from the Person that actually received it (and, if such amount was received by any Lender, such Lender hereby agrees to return it).

5.7.[Intentionally Omitted.]

5.8.Loan Account; Account Stated.

5.8.1.Loan Account. The Administrative Agent shall maintain in accordance with its usual and customary practices an account or accounts (“Loan Account”) evidencing the Debt of Borrowers resulting from each Loan from time to time. Any failure of the Administrative Agent to record anything in the Loan Account, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of Borrowers to pay any amount owing hereunder.

5.8.2.Entries Binding. Entries made in the Loan Account shall constitute presumptive evidence of the information contained therein. If any information contained in the Loan Account is provided to or inspected by any Person, then such information shall be conclusive and binding on such Person for all purposes absent manifest error, except to the extent such Person notifies the Administrative Agent in writing within 30 days after receipt or inspection that specific information is subject to dispute.

5.9.Taxes.

5.9.1.Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Tax Payment.

(a)All payments of Obligations by Obligors shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If Applicable Law (as determined by the Administrative Agent in its good faith discretion) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent or an Obligor, then the Administrative Agent or such Obligor shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding based on information and documentation provided pursuant to Section 5.10.

(b)If the Administrative Agent or any Obligor is required by the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes, including backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (i) the Administrative Agent shall pay the full amount that it determines is to be withheld or deducted to the

-34-

relevant Governmental Authority pursuant to the Code, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(c) If the Administrative Agent or any Obligor is required by any Applicable Law other than the Code to withhold or deduct Taxes from any payment, then (i) the Administrative Agent or such Obligor, to the extent required by Applicable Law, shall timely pay the full amount to be withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority, and (ii) to the extent the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that the Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

5.9.2.Payment of Other Taxes. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the Administrative Agent’s option, timely reimburse the Administrative Agent for payment of, any Other Taxes.

5.9.3.Tax Indemnification.

(a)Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a joint and several basis, each Recipient against any Indemnified Taxes (including those imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by a Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to a Recipient, and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent against any amount that a Lender fails for any reason to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to this Section. Each Borrower shall make payment within ten (10) days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Borrowers by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of any Recipient, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(b)Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless, on a several basis, (i) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent Borrowers have not already paid or reimbursed the Administrative Agent therefor and without limiting Borrowers’ obligation to do so), (ii) the Administrative Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to maintain a Participant register as required hereunder, and (iii) the Administrative Agent and Obligors, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or an Obligor in connection with any Obligations, 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. Each Lender shall make payment within ten (10) days after demand for any amount or liability payable under this Section. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

5.9.4.Evidence of Payments. If the Administrative Agent or an Obligor pays any Taxes pursuant to this Section, then upon request, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to Borrower Agent or Borrower Agent shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, a copy of a receipt issued by the appropriate Governmental Authority evidencing the payment, a copy of any return required

-35-

by Applicable Law to report the payment, or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent or Borrower Agent, as applicable.

5.9.5.Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by Applicable Law, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, nor have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of a Lender. If a Recipient determines in its discretion that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by Borrowers or with respect to which a Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section, it shall pay Borrowers an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by Borrowers with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that Borrowers agree, upon request by the Recipient, to repay the amount paid over to Borrowers (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient if the Recipient is required to repay such refund to the Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Recipient shall be required to pay any amount to Borrowers if such payment would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than it would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any Recipient be required to make its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) available to any Obligor or other Person.

5.9.6.Survival. Each party’s obligations under Sections 5.9 and 5.10 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by or replacement of a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction, discharge or Full Payment of any Obligations.

5.10.Lender Tax Information.

5.10.1.Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments of Obligations shall deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers 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 reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to enable them to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, such documentation (other than documentation described in Sections 5.10.2(a), (b) and (d)) shall not be required if a Lender reasonably believes delivery of the documentation would subject it to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice its legal or commercial position.

5.10.2.Documentation. Without limiting the foregoing, if any Borrower is a U.S. Person,

(a)Any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9, certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

-36-

(b)Any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon reasonable request of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(i)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of 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 (y) with respect to other payments under the Loan Documents, 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;

(ii)executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(iii)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate in form satisfactory to the Administrative Agent to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (“U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”), and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

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

(c)any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender hereunder (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of Borrowers or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by Applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by Applicable Law to permit Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(d)if payment of an Obligation to a Lender 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), such Lender shall deliver to Borrowers and the Administrative Agent at the time(s) prescribed by law and otherwise as reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by Applicable Law (including Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for

-37-

them to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with its obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (d), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date hereof.

5.10.3.Redelivery of Documentation. If any form or certification previously delivered by a Lender pursuant to this Section expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, such Lender shall promptly update the form or certification or notify Borrowers and the Administrative Agent in writing of its inability to do so.

5.11.Nature and Extent of Each Borrower’s Liability.

5.11.1.Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties the prompt payment and performance of, all Obligations and all agreements under the Loan Documents. Each Borrower agrees that its guaranty obligations hereunder constitute a continuing guaranty of payment and not of collection, that such obligations shall not be discharged until Full Payment of the Obligations, and that such obligations are absolute and unconditional, irrespective of (a) the genuineness, validity, regularity, enforceability, subordination or any future modification of, or change in, any Obligations or Loan Document, or any other document, instrument or agreement to which any Obligor is or may become a party or be bound; (b) the absence of any action to enforce this Agreement (including this Section) or any other Loan Document, or any waiver, consent or indulgence of any kind by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party with respect thereto; (c) the existence, value or condition of, or failure to perfect a Lien or to preserve rights against, any security or guaranty for the Obligations or any action, or the absence of any action, by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in respect thereof (including the release of any security or guaranty); (d) the insolvency of any Obligor; (e) any election by the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party in an Insolvency Proceeding for the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code; (f) any borrowing or grant of a Lien by any other Borrower, as debtor-in-possession under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; (g) the disallowance of any claims of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party against any Obligor for the repayment of any Obligations under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code or otherwise; or (h) any other action or circumstances that might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a surety or guarantor, except Full Payment of all Obligations.

5.11.2.Waivers.

(a)Each Borrower expressly waives all rights that it may have now or in the future under any statute, at common law, in equity or otherwise, to compel the Administrative Agent or Secured Parties to marshal assets or to proceed against any Obligor, other Person or security for the payment or performance of any Obligations before, or as a condition to, proceeding against such Borrower. Each Borrower waives all defenses available to a surety, guarantor or accommodation co-obligor other than Full Payment of all Obligations and waives, to the maximum extent permitted by law, any right to revoke any guaranty of any Obligations as long as it is a Borrower. It is agreed among each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties that the provisions of this Section 5.11 are of the essence of the transaction contemplated by the Loan Documents and that, but for such provisions, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties would decline to make Loans. Each Borrower acknowledges that its guaranty pursuant to this Section is necessary to the conduct and promotion of its business, and can be expected to benefit such business.

(b)Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties may, in their discretion, pursue such rights and remedies as

-38-

they deem appropriate, including realization upon Collateral by judicial foreclosure or non‑judicial sale or enforcement, without affecting any rights and remedies under this Section 5.11. If, in taking any action in connection with the exercise of any rights or remedies, the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party shall forfeit any other rights or remedies, including the right to enter a deficiency judgment against any Borrower or other Person, whether because of any Applicable Laws pertaining to “election of remedies” or otherwise, each Borrower consents to such action and waives any claim based upon it, even if the action may result in loss of any rights of subrogation that any Borrower might otherwise have had. Any election of remedies that results in denial or impairment of the right of the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party to seek a deficiency judgment against any Borrower shall not impair any Borrower’s obligation to pay the full amount of the Obligations. Each Borrower waives all rights and defenses arising out of an election of remedies, such as nonjudicial foreclosure with respect to any security for the Obligations, even though that election of remedies destroys such Borrower’s rights of subrogation against any other Person. The Administrative Agent may bid all or a portion of the Obligations at any foreclosure, trustee’s or other sale, including any private sale, and the amount of such bid need not be paid by the Administrative Agent but shall be credited against the Obligations. The amount of the successful bid at any such sale, whether the Administrative Agent or any other Person is the successful bidder, shall be conclusively deemed to be the fair market value of the Collateral, and the difference between such bid amount and the remaining balance of the Obligations shall be conclusively deemed to be the amount of the Obligations guaranteed under this Section 5.11, notwithstanding that any present or future law or court decision may have the effect of reducing the amount of any deficiency claim to which the Administrative Agent or any Secured Party might otherwise be entitled but for such bidding at any such sale.

5.11.3.Extent of Liability; Contribution.

(a)Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each Borrower’s liability under this Section 5.11 shall be limited to the greater of (i) all amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable, as described below, and (ii) such Borrower’s Allocable Amount.

(b)If any Borrower makes a payment under this Section 5.11 of any Obligations (other than amounts for which such Borrower is primarily liable) (a “Guarantor Payment”) that, taking into account all other Guarantor Payments previously or concurrently made by any other Borrower, exceeds the amount that such Borrower would otherwise have paid if each Borrower had paid the aggregate Obligations satisfied by such Guarantor Payments in the same proportion that such Borrower’s Allocable Amount bore to the total Allocable Amounts of all Borrowers, then such Borrower shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and to be reimbursed by, each other Borrower for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment. The “Allocable Amount” for any Borrower shall be the maximum amount that could then be recovered from such Borrower under this Section 5.11 without rendering such payment voidable under Section 548 of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state fraudulent transfer or conveyance act, or similar statute or common law.

(c)Section 5.11.3(a) shall not limit the liability of any Borrower to pay or guarantee Loans made directly or indirectly to it (including Loans advanced hereunder to any other Person and then re-loaned or otherwise transferred to, or for the benefit of, such Borrower) and all accrued interest, fees, expenses and other related Obligations with respect thereto, for which such Borrower shall be primarily liable for all purposes hereunder.

5.11.4.Joint Enterprise. Each Borrower has requested that the Administrative Agent and Secured Parties make this credit facility available to Borrowers on a combined basis in order to finance Borrowers’ business most efficiently and economically. Borrowers’ business is a mutual and

-39-

collective enterprise, and the successful operation of each Borrower is dependent upon the successful performance of the integrated group. Borrowers believe that consolidation of their credit facility will enhance the borrowing power of each Borrower and ease administration of the facility, all to their mutual advantage. Borrowers acknowledge that the Administrative Agent’s and Secured Parties’ willingness to extend credit and to administer the Collateral of Borrowers on a combined basis hereunder is done solely as an accommodation to Borrowers and at Borrowers’ request.

5.11.5.Subordination. Each Borrower hereby subordinates any claims, including any rights at law or in equity to payment, subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution, indemnification or setoff, that it may have at any time against any other Obligor, howsoever arising, to the Full Payment of all Obligations.

-41-

recorded, at Borrowers’ expense, in each office where such recording is required to constitute a fully perfected Lien on the Real Estate covered thereby.

7.2.General Provisions.

7.2.1.Insurance of Collateral; Condemnation Proceeds.

(a)Each Borrower shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, maintain insurance with respect to the Collateral, covering casualty, hazard, theft, malicious mischief, flood and other risks, in amounts, with endorsements and with insurers (with a Best rating of at least A+, unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in its discretion) satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. All proceeds with respect to Collateral under each policy shall be payable to the Administrative Agent. From time to time upon request, Borrowers shall, and shall cause each other Obligor to, deliver to the Administrative Agent the originals or certified copies of its insurance policies and updated flood plain searches. Unless the Administrative Agent shall agree otherwise, each policy shall include satisfactory endorsements (i) showing the Administrative Agent as additional loss payee; (ii) requiring 30 days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent in the event of cancellation of the policy for any reason whatsoever; and (iii) specifying that the interest of the Administrative Agent shall not be impaired or invalidated by any act or neglect of any Obligor or the owner of the Property, nor by the occupation of the premises for purposes more hazardous than are permitted by the policy. If any Obligor fails to provide and pay for any insurance, the Administrative Agent may, at its option, but shall not be required to, procure the insurance and charge Borrowers therefor. Each Borrower agrees to deliver, and shall cause each other Obligor to deliver, to the Administrative Agent, promptly as rendered, copies of all reports made to insurance companies. While no Event of Default exists, Borrowers may settle, adjust or compromise any insurance claim, as long as the proceeds of any insurance with respect to Collateral are delivered to the Administrative Agent. If an Event of Default exists, only the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to settle, adjust and compromise such claims regarding Collateral.

(b)Any proceeds of insurance with respect to Collateral and any awards arising from condemnation of any Collateral shall be paid to the Administrative Agent. Subject to clause (c) below, any proceeds or awards that relate to Real Estate shall be applied first to the Loans and then to other Obligations.

(c)If requested by Borrowers in writing within 30 days after the Administrative Agent’s receipt of any insurance proceeds or condemnation awards relating to any loss or destruction of Real Estate, Borrowers may use such proceeds or awards to repair or replace such Real Estate (and until so used, the proceeds shall be held by the Administrative Agent as Cash Collateral) as long as (i) no Default or Event of Default exists; (ii) such repair or replacement is promptly undertaken and concluded, in accordance with plans reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent; (iii) the repaired or replaced Property is free of Liens, other than Permitted Liens that are not Purchase Money Liens; (iv) Borrowers comply with disbursement procedures for such repair or replacement as the Administrative Agent may reasonably require; and (v) the aggregate amount of such proceeds or awards from any single casualty or condemnation does not exceed the greater of (x) $10,000,000 and (y) 25% of the appraised value of the property suffering such loss according to the most recent appraisal delivered to the Administrative Agent by a Borrower.

7.2.2.Protection of Collateral. All expenses of protecting, insuring and maintaining any Collateral, all Taxes payable with respect to any Collateral (including any sale thereof), and all other payments required to be made by the Administrative Agent to any Person to realize upon any Collateral, shall be borne and paid by Borrowers. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable or responsible in any way for the safekeeping of any Collateral, for any loss or damage thereto (except for reasonable care in its

-42-

custody while Collateral is in the Administrative Agent’s actual possession), for any diminution in the value thereof, or for any act or default of any other Person whatsoever, but the same shall be at Borrowers’ sole risk.

7.2.3.Defense of Title to Collateral. Each Borrower shall at all times defend its title to Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s Liens therein against all Persons, claims and demands whatsoever, except Permitted Liens.

7.3.Further Assurances.

SECTION 8.[INTENTIONALLY OMITTED]

SECTION 9.REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

9.1.General Representations and Warranties. To induce the Administrative Agent and Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make available the Commitments and Loans, Borrowers represent and warrant that:

9.1.1.Organization and Qualification. Each Borrower and Subsidiary is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization. Each Borrower and Subsidiary is duly qualified, authorized to do business and in good standing as a foreign corporation, partnership or limited liability company, as applicable, in each jurisdiction where failure to be so qualified could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.2.Power and Authority. Each Obligor is duly authorized to execute, deliver and perform its Loan Documents. The execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents have been duly authorized by all necessary action, and do not (a) require any consent or approval of any holders of Equity Interests of any Obligor, other than those already obtained; (b) contravene the Organic Documents of any Obligor; (c) violate or cause a default under any Applicable Law or Material Contract; or (d) result in or require the imposition of any Lien (other than Permitted Liens) on any Property of any Obligor.

9.1.3.Enforceability. Each Loan Document is a legal, valid and binding obligation of each Obligor party thereto, enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity.

9.1.4.Capital Structure. Schedule 9.1.4 shows, as of the Closing Date, for each Borrower and Subsidiary, its name, its jurisdiction of organization, its authorized and issued Equity Interests, the holders of its Equity Interests (other than with respect to UNFI), and all agreements binding on such holders with respect to their Equity Interests. Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.4, in the five years preceding the Closing Date, no Borrower or Subsidiary has acquired all or substantially all of the assets of any other Person nor been the surviving entity in a merger, amalgamation or combination. Each Borrower has good title to its Equity Interests in its Subsidiaries, and all such Equity Interests are duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. There are no outstanding purchase options, warrants, subscription rights, agreements to issue or sell, convertible interests, phantom rights or powers of attorney relating to Equity Interests of any Borrower (other than UNFI) or any Subsidiary.

-43-

9.1.5.Title to Properties; Priority of Liens. Each Borrower and Subsidiary has good and marketable title to (or valid leasehold interests in) all of its Real Estate, and good title to all of its material personal Property, including all Property reflected in any financial statements delivered to Administrative Agent or Lenders, in each case free of Liens except Permitted Liens. Each Borrower and Subsidiary has paid and discharged all lawful claims that, if unpaid, could become a Lien on its Properties, other than Permitted Liens. All Liens of the Administrative Agent in the Collateral are duly perfected, first priority Liens, subject only to Permitted Liens that are expressly allowed to have priority over the Administrative Agent’s Liens.

9.1.6.[Intentionally Omitted.]

9.1.7.Financial Statements. The consolidated balance sheets, and related statements of income, cash flow and shareholder’s equity, of Borrowers and Subsidiaries that have been and are hereafter delivered to Administrative Agent and Lenders, are prepared in accordance with GAAP, and at the time of delivery fairly present the financial positions and results of operations of Borrowers and Subsidiaries at the dates and for the periods indicated (in the case of interim statements, subject to year-end adjustments and the absence of footnotes). All projections delivered from time to time to Administrative Agent and Lenders have been prepared in good faith, based on assumptions believed by the management of Borrowers to be reasonable in light of the circumstances at the time of preparation. Since August 3, 2013, there has been no change in the condition, financial or otherwise, of any Borrower or Subsidiary that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No financial statement at any time delivered to Administrative Agent or Lenders contains any untrue statement of a material fact, nor fails to disclose any material fact necessary to make such statement not materially misleading, in light of the circumstances under which they were made. The Borrowers and the other Obligors are Solvent.

9.1.8.Surety Obligations. No Borrower or Subsidiary is obligated as surety or indemnitor under any bond or other contract that assures payment or performance of any obligation of any other Person, except as permitted hereunder.

9.1.9.Taxes. Each Borrower and Subsidiary has filed all federal, state, provincial and local tax returns and other reports that it is required by law to file, and has paid, or made provision for the payment of, all Taxes upon it, its income and its Properties that are due and payable, except to the extent being Properly Contested. The provision for Taxes on the books of each Borrower and Subsidiary is adequate for all years not closed by applicable statutes, and for its current Fiscal Year.

9.1.10.Brokers. There are no brokerage commissions, finder’s fees or investment banking fees payable in connection with any transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents.

9.1.11.Intellectual Property. Each Borrower and Subsidiary owns or has the lawful right to use all Intellectual Property necessary for the conduct of its business, without conflict with any rights of others that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There is no pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened Intellectual Property Claim with respect to any Borrower, any Subsidiary or any of their Property (including any Intellectual Property) that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.11, no Borrower or Subsidiary pays or owes any Royalty or other compensation to any Person with respect to any Intellectual Property, other than de minimis amounts.

9.1.12.Governmental Approvals. Each Borrower and Subsidiary has, is in compliance with, and is in good standing with respect to, all applicable Governmental Approvals necessary to conduct its business and to own, lease and operate its Properties, except where

-44-

noncompliance or the failure to be in good standing could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. All necessary import, export or other licenses, permits or certificates for the import or handling of any goods or other Collateral have been procured and are in effect, and Borrowers and Subsidiaries have complied with all foreign and domestic laws with respect to the shipment and importation of any goods, except where noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.13.Compliance with Laws. Each Borrower and Subsidiary has duly complied, and its Properties and business operations are in compliance, in all material respects with all Applicable Law, except where noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. There have been no citations, notices or orders of noncompliance issued to any Borrower or Subsidiary under any Applicable Law, except where such noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Inventory has been produced in violation of the FLSA.

9.1.14.Compliance with Environmental Laws. Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.14, no Borrower’s or Subsidiary’s past or present operations, Real Estate or other Properties are subject to any pending (or, to the knowledge of any Borrower or Subsidiary, threatened) federal, state, provincial, territorial or local investigation to determine whether any remedial action is needed to address any environmental pollution, hazardous material or environmental clean-up. No Borrower or Subsidiary has received any Environmental Notice. No Borrower or Subsidiary has any contingent liability with respect to any Environmental Release, environmental pollution or hazardous material on any Real Estate now or previously owned, leased or operated by it, if the same could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

9.1.15.Burdensome Contracts. No Borrower or Subsidiary is a party or subject to any contract, agreement or charter restriction that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower or Subsidiary is party or subject to any Restrictive Agreement, except as shown on Schedule 9.1.15. No such Restrictive Agreement prohibits the execution, delivery or performance of any Loan Document by an Obligor.

9.1.16.Litigation. Except as shown on Schedule 9.1.16, there are no proceedings or investigations pending or, to any Borrower’s knowledge, threatened against any Borrower or Subsidiary, or any of their businesses, operations, Properties or condition (financial or otherwise), that (a) relate to any Loan Documents or transactions contemplated thereby; or (b) could reasonably be expected to be determined adversely to such Borrower or Subsidiary, and if so determined, to have a Material Adverse Effect. No Borrower or Subsidiary is in default with respect to any order, injunction or judgment of any Governmental Authority.

9.1.17.No Defaults. No event or circumstance has occurred or exists that constitutes a Default or Event of Default. No Borrower or Subsidiary is in default, and no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that with the passage of time or giving of notice would constitute a default, under any Material Contract if such default could reasonably be expected to result in a termination of such Material Contract prior to the time that it otherwise would terminate in the absence of such default. There is no basis upon which any party (other than a Borrower or Subsidiary) could terminate a Material Contract prior to its scheduled termination date.

9.1.18.ERISA; Canadian Plans. Except as disclosed on Schedule 9.1.18:

(a)No Obligor has any Plan. Each Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code, and other federal and state laws except to the extent any such noncompliance could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Plan

-45-

that is intended to qualify under Section 401(a) of the Code has received a favorable determination letter from the IRS or an application for such a letter is currently being processed by the IRS with respect thereto and, to the knowledge of Borrowers, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification, in each case except to the extent the failure to obtain such determination letter, make application therefor or retain such qualification could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Each Obligor and ERISA Affiliate has in all material respects met all applicable requirements under the Code, ERISA and the Pension Protection Act of 2006, and no application for a waiver of the minimum funding standards or an extension of any amortization period has been made with respect to any Plan, except to the extent such events or circumstances could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b)There are no pending or, to the knowledge of Borrowers, threatened claims, actions or lawsuits, or action by any Governmental Authority, with respect to any Plan or any Canadian Plan that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(d)Each Canadian Plan, other than a Canadian MEPP (and, to the knowledge of UNFI, each Canadian Plan that is a Canadian MEPP) is administered in compliance in all material respects with Applicable Laws. Each Canadian Plan, other than a Canadian MEPP (and, to the knowledge of UNFI, each Canadian Plan that is a Canadian MEPP) that is intended to qualify for tax-preferred status is, to the extent applicable, duly registered under applicable pension standards laws and the Income Tax Act (Canada), or is otherwise administered in such a manner as to qualify for such tax-preferred status, and in all cases, to the knowledge of UNFI, nothing has occurred which would prevent, or cause the loss of, such qualification.

SECTION 10.COVENANTS AND CONTINUING AGREEMENTS

10.1.Affirmative Covenants. As long as any Commitments or Obligations are outstanding, Borrowers shall, and shall cause each Subsidiary to:

Lenders may participate in any such visit or inspection, at their own expense. Neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any duty to any Obligor to make any inspection, nor to share any results of any inspection, appraisal or report with any Obligor. Borrowers acknowledge that all inspections, appraisals and reports are prepared by the Administrative Agent and Lenders for their purposes, and Borrowers shall not be entitled to rely upon them.

(b)Reimburse the Administrative Agent for all charges, costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent in connection with inspections of any Obligor’s books and records or any other financial or Collateral matters as the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, deems appropriate, for one inspection per Loan Year; provided, however, that if an inspection is initiated during a Default or Event of Default, all charges, costs and expenses therefor shall be reimbursed by Borrowers without regard to such limits. Borrowers agree to pay the Administrative Agent’s then standard charges for inspection activities, including the standard charges of the Administrative Agent’s internal inspection and appraisal groups, as well as the charges of any third party used for such purposes. This Section shall not be construed to limit the Administrative Agent’s right to use third parties for such purposes.

All such rights and remedies shall continue in full force and effect until Full Payment of all Obligations.

11.5.2.Waivers.

SECTION 12.ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

12.1.Appointment, Authority and Duties of the Administrative Agent.

12.1.1.Appointment and Authority.

(a)Each Secured Party appoints and designates Bank of America as Administrative Agent under all Loan Documents. Administrative Agent may, and each Secured Party authorizes Administrative Agent to, enter into all Loan Documents to which Administrative Agent is intended to be a party and accept all applicable Security Documents, for the benefit of Secured Parties. Any action taken by Administrative Agent in accordance with the provisions of the Loan Documents, and the exercise by Administrative Agent of any rights or remedies set forth therein, together with all other powers reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized by and binding upon all Secured Parties. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent shall have the sole and exclusive authority to (i) act as the disbursing and collecting agent for Lenders with respect to all payments and collections arising in connection with the Loan Documents; (ii) execute and deliver as Administrative Agent each Loan Document, including any intercreditor or subordination agreement, and accept delivery of each Loan Document; (iii) act as collateral agent for Secured Parties for purposes of perfecting and administering Liens under the Loan Documents, and for all other purposes stated therein; (iv) manage, supervise or otherwise deal with Collateral; and (v) take any Enforcement Action or otherwise exercise any rights or remedies with respect to any Collateral or under any Loan Documents, Applicable Law or otherwise.

(b)Without limiting any other provision of this Agreement, each Secured Party, as a principal, specifically appoints Administrative Agent as such Secured Party’s agent for purposes of acting as beneficiary of each Mortgage consisting of a deed of trust on Real Estate in the State of Washington (each, a “Washington Deed of Trust”), for itself and on behalf of each Secured Party, and taking all actions that such Secured Party could take in such capacity were such Secured Party itself named directly as a beneficiary of each Washington Deed of Trust (including but not limited to appointing a successor trustee thereunder, directing the trustee thereof to exercise the power of sale thereunder, or foreclosing such Washington Deed of Trust judicially as a mortgage). Each Secured Party further agrees to enter into such further documents, instruments and agreements as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in order to more fully carry out the purpose and intent of the appointment provided for in this Section for the mutual benefit of the Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent.

12.1.2.Duties. The title of “Administrative Agent” is used solely as a matter of market custom and the duties of the Administrative Agent are administrative in nature only. The

-60-

Administrative Agent has no duties except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, and in no event does the Administrative Agent have any agency, fiduciary or implied duty to or relationship with any Secured Party or other Person by reason of any Loan Document or related transaction. The conferral upon the Administrative Agent of any right shall not imply a duty to exercise such right, unless instructed to do so by Lenders in accordance with this Agreement.

12.1.3.Agent Professionals. The Administrative Agent may perform its duties through agents and employees. The Administrative Agent may consult with and employ Agent Professionals, and shall be entitled to act upon, and shall be fully protected in any action taken in good faith reliance upon, any advice given by an Agent Professional. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents, employees or Agent Professionals selected by it with reasonable care.

12.1.4.Instructions of Required Lenders. The rights and remedies conferred upon the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents may be exercised without the necessity of joinder of any other party, unless required by Applicable Law. In determining compliance with a condition for any action hereunder, including satisfaction of any condition in Section 6, the Administrative Agent may presume that the condition is satisfactory to a Secured Party unless the Administrative Agent has received notice to the contrary from such Secured Party before the Administrative Agent takes the action. The Administrative Agent may request instructions from Required Lenders or other Secured Parties (or such other number of Lenders as may be required) with respect to any act (including the failure to act) in connection with any Loan Documents or Collateral, and may seek assurances to its satisfaction from Secured Parties of their indemnification obligations against Claims that could be incurred by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may refrain from any act until it has received such instructions or assurances, and shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Instructions of Required Lenders (or such other number of Lenders as may be required) shall be binding upon all Secured Parties, and no Secured Party shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting pursuant to instructions of Required Lenders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, instructions by and consent of specific parties shall be required to the extent provided in Section 14.1.1. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be required to take any action that it determines in its discretion is contrary to Applicable Law or any Loan Documents or could subject any Agent Indemnitee to liability.

12.2.Agreements Regarding Collateral and Borrower Materials.

12.2.1.Releases; Care of Collateral. Secured Parties authorize the Administrative Agent (a) to release any Lien with respect to any Collateral (i) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (ii) that is the subject of an Asset Disposition that the Borrowers certify in writing to Administrative Agent is a Permitted Collateral Disposition or a Lien that the Borrowers certify is a Permitted Lien entitled to priority over the Administrative Agent’s Liens (and the Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate without further inquiry); (iii) that does not constitute a material part of the Collateral; or (iv) subject to Section 14.1, with the consent of all Required Lenders; provided that such releases permitted pursuant to clauses (ii) through (iv) above shall be subject at all times to the Borrowers’ compliance with Section 10.3.3 on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such disposition, and (b) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Documents if (i) such Person becomes an Immaterial Subsidiary, or (ii) such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a result of a transaction expressly permitted under the Loan Documents. Secured Parties authorize the Administrative Agent to subordinate its Liens to any Purchase Money Lien or other Lien entitled to priority hereunder. The Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to assure that any Collateral exists or is owned by an Obligor, or is cared for, protected or insured, nor to assure that the Administrative Agent’s Liens have

-61-

been properly created, perfected or enforced, or are entitled to any particular priority, nor to exercise any duty of care with respect to any Collateral.

12.2.2.Possession of Collateral. The Administrative Agent and Secured Parties appoint each Lender as agent (for the benefit of Secured Parties) for the purpose of perfecting Liens in any Collateral held or controlled by such Lender, to the extent such Liens are perfected by possession or control. If any Lender obtains possession or control of any Collateral, it shall notify Administrative Agent thereof and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with it in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

12.2.3.Reports. Administrative Agent shall promptly provide to Lenders, when complete, any inspection, appraisal or other report prepared for the Administrative Agent with respect to any Obligor or Collateral (“Report”). Reports and other Borrower Materials may be made available to Lenders by providing access to them on the Platform, but Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for system failures or access issues that may occur from time to time. Each Lender agrees (a) that Reports are not intended to be comprehensive audits, examinations or appraisals, and that the Administrative Agent or any other Person performing an audit, examination or appraisal will inspect only specific information regarding the Obligations or Collateral and will rely significantly upon Borrowers’ books, records and representations; (b) that Administrative Agent makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy or completeness of any Borrower Materials and shall not be liable for any information contained in or omitted from any Borrower Materials, including any Report; and (c) to keep all Borrower Materials confidential and strictly for such Lender’s internal use, not to distribute any Report or other Borrower Materials (or the contents thereof) to any Person (except to such Lender’s Participants, attorneys, accountants and to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Lender or its Affiliates), and to use all Borrower Materials solely for administration of the Obligations. Each Lender shall indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any other Person preparing a Report from any action such Lender may take as a result of or any conclusion it may draw from any Borrower Materials, as well as from any Claims arising as a direct or indirect result of Administrative Agent furnishing same to such Lender, via the Platform or otherwise.

12.3.Reliance By the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any certification, notice or other communication (including those by telephone, telex, telegram, telecopy or e-mail) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent shall have a reasonable and practicable amount of time to act upon any instruction, notice or other communication under any Loan Document, and shall not be liable for any delay in acting.

12.4.Action Upon Default. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default, or of any failure to satisfy any conditions in Section 6, unless it has received written notice from a Borrower or Required Lenders specifying the occurrence and nature thereof. If any Lender acquires knowledge of a Default, Event of Default or failure of such conditions, it shall promptly notify Administrative Agent and the other Lenders thereof in writing. Each Secured Party agrees that, except as otherwise provided in any Loan Documents or with the written consent of Administrative Agent and Required Lenders, it will not take any Enforcement Action, accelerate Obligations, or exercise any right that it might otherwise have under Applicable Law to credit bid at foreclosure sales, UCC sales or other similar dispositions of Collateral or to assert any rights relating to any Collateral.

12.5.Ratable Sharing. If any Lender shall obtain any payment or reduction of any Obligation, whether through setoff or otherwise, in excess of its share of such Obligation, determined on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.2, as applicable, such Lender shall forthwith purchase

-62-

from the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders such participations in the affected Obligation as are necessary to cause the purchasing Lender to share the excess payment or reduction on a Pro Rata basis or in accordance with Section 5.6.2, as applicable. If any of such payment or reduction is thereafter recovered from the purchasing Lender, the purchase shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, but without interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Defaulting Lender obtains a payment or reduction of any Obligation, it shall immediately turn over the amount thereof to the Administrative Agent for application under Section 4.2.2 and it shall provide a written statement to the Administrative Agent describing the Obligation affected by such payment or reduction.

12.6.Indemnification. EACH SECURED PARTY SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS AGENT INDEMNITEES, TO THE EXTENT NOT REIMBURSED BY OBLIGORS, ON A PRO RATA BASIS, AGAINST ALL CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY SUCH INDEMNITEE, PROVIDED THAT ANY CLAIM AGAINST AN AGENT INDEMNITEE RELATES TO OR ARISES FROM ITS ACTING AS OR FOR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT (IN THE CAPACITY OF ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT). In no event shall any Lender have any obligation to indemnify or hold harmless an Agent Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. In the Administrative Agent’s discretion, it may reserve for any Claims made against an Agent Indemnitee, and may satisfy any judgment, order or settlement relating thereto, from proceeds of Collateral prior to making any distribution of Collateral proceeds to Secured Parties. If the Administrative Agent is sued by any receiver, bankruptcy trustee, debtor-in-possession or other Person for any alleged preference or fraudulent transfer, then any monies paid by the Administrative Agent in settlement or satisfaction of such proceeding, together with all interest, costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred in the defense of same, shall be promptly reimbursed to the Administrative Agent by each Secured Party to the extent of its Pro Rata share.

12.7.Limitation on Responsibilities of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Secured Party for any action taken or omitted to be taken under the Loan Documents, except for losses directly and solely caused by the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The Administrative Agent assumes no responsibility for any failure or delay in performance or any breach by any Obligor, Lender or other Secured Party of any obligations under the Loan Documents. The Administrative Agent makes no express or implied representation, warranty or guarantee to Secured Parties with respect to any Obligations, Collateral, Liens, Loan Documents or Obligor. No Agent Indemnitee shall be responsible to Secured Parties for any recitals, statements, information, representations or warranties contained in any Loan Documents or Borrower Materials; the execution, validity, genuineness, effectiveness or enforceability of any Loan Documents; the genuineness, enforceability, collectibility, value, sufficiency, location or existence of any Collateral, or the validity, extent, perfection or priority of any Lien therein; the validity, enforceability or collectibility of any Obligations; or the assets, liabilities, financial condition, results of operations, business, creditworthiness or legal status of any Obligor. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any obligation to any Secured Party to ascertain or inquire into the existence of any Default or Event of Default, the observance by any Obligor of any terms of the Loan Documents, or the satisfaction of any conditions precedent contained in any Loan Documents.

12.8.Successor Administrative Agent.

12.8.1.Resignation; Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving at least 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrowers. Upon receipt of such notice, Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be (a) a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender; or (b) a financial institution reasonably

-63-

acceptable to Required Lenders and (provided no Default or Event of Default exists) Borrowers. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, then Administrative Agent may appoint a successor agent that is a financial institution reasonably acceptable to it, which shall be a Lender unless no Lender accepts the role or in the absence of such appointment, Required Lenders shall on such date assume all rights and duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder. Upon acceptance by a successor Administrative Agent of its appointment hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent without further act, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder but shall continue to have all rights and protections under the Loan Documents with respect to actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Administrative Agent, including the benefits of the indemnification set forth in Sections 12.6 and 14.2. Notwithstanding the Administrative Agent’s resignation, the provisions of this Section 12 shall continue in effect for its benefit with respect to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while Administrative Agent. Any successor to Bank of America by merger, amalgamation or acquisition of stock or this loan shall continue to be Administrative Agent hereunder without further act on the part of any Secured Party or Obligor.

If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, by notice in writing to the Borrower Agent and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent, and, in consultation with the Borrower Agent, appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

12.8.2.Co-Collateral Agent. If necessary or appropriate under Applicable Law, the Administrative Agent may appoint a Person to serve as a co-collateral agent or separate collateral agent under any Loan Document. Each right and remedy intended to be available to the Administrative Agent under such Loan Document shall also be vested in such agent. Secured Parties shall execute and deliver any instrument or agreement that the Administrative Agent may request to effect such appointment. If the agent shall die, dissolve, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, then all the rights and remedies of such agent, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Administrative Agent until appointment of a new agent.

12.9.Due Diligence and Non-Reliance. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lenders, and based upon such documents, information and analyses as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of each Obligor and its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to fund Loans hereunder. Each Secured Party has made such inquiries as it feels necessary concerning the Loan Documents, Collateral and Obligors. Each Secured Party acknowledges and agrees that the other Secured Parties have made no representations or warranties concerning any Obligor, any Collateral or the legality, validity, sufficiency or enforceability of any Loan Documents or Obligations. Each Secured Party will, independently and without reliance upon any other Secured Party, and based upon such financial statements, documents and information as it deems appropriate at the time, continue to make and rely upon its own credit decisions in making Loans, and in taking or refraining from any action under any Loan Documents. Except for notices, reports and other information expressly requested by a Lender, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Secured Party with any notices, reports or certificates furnished to the Administrative Agent by any Obligor or any credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition, business or Properties of any Obligor (or any of its Affiliates) which may come into possession of the Administrative Agent or its Affiliates.

-64-

12.10.Remittance of Payments and Collections.

12.10.1.Remittances Generally. All payments by any Lender to the Administrative Agent shall be made by the time and on the day set forth in this Agreement, in immediately available funds. If no time for payment is specified or if payment is due on demand by the Administrative Agent and request for payment is made by the Administrative Agent by 11:00 a.m. on a Business Day, payment shall be made by Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on such day, and if request is made after 11:00 a.m., then payment shall be made by 11:00 a.m. on the next Business Day. Payment by the Administrative Agent to any Secured Party shall be made by wire transfer, in the type of funds received by the Administrative Agent. Any such payment shall be subject to the Administrative Agent’s right of offset for any amounts due from such payee under the Loan Documents.

12.10.2.Failure to Pay. If any Secured Party fails to pay any amount when due by it to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms hereof, such amount shall bear interest from the due date until paid in full at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate or the rate determined by the Administrative Agent as customary for interbank compensation for two Business Days and thereafter at the Default Rate for Base Rate Loans. In no event shall Borrowers be entitled to receive credit for any interest paid by a Secured Party to the Administrative Agent, nor shall any Defaulting Lender be entitled to interest on any amounts held by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 4.2.

12.10.3.Recovery of Payments. If the Administrative Agent pays any amount to a Secured Party in the expectation that a related payment will be received by the Administrative Agent from an Obligor and such related payment is not received, then the Administrative Agent may recover such amount from each Secured Party that received it. If the Administrative Agent determines that an amount received by it must be returned or paid to an Obligor or other Person pursuant to Applicable Law or otherwise, then, notwithstanding any other term of any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to distribute such amount to any Secured Party. If any amounts received and applied by the Administrative Agent to any Obligations are later required to be returned by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Applicable Law, each Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on demand, such Lender’s Pro Rata share of the amounts required to be returned.

12.11.Individual Capacities. As a Lender, Bank of America shall have the same rights and remedies under the Loan Documents as any other Lender and the terms “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” or any similar term shall include Bank of America in its capacity as a Lender. The Administrative Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, provide Bank Products to, act as financial or other advisor to, and generally engage in any kind of business with, Obligors and their Affiliates, as if they were not the Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder, without any duty to account therefor to any Secured Party. In their individual capacities, the Administrative Agent, Lenders and their Affiliates may receive information regarding Obligors and their Affiliates (including information subject to confidentiality obligations), and shall have no obligation to provide such information to any Secured Party.

12.12.[Intentionally Omitted.]

12.13.[Intentionally Omitted.]

12.14.No Third Party Beneficiaries. This Section 12 is an agreement solely among Secured Parties and the Administrative Agent, and shall survive Full Payment of the Obligations. This Section 12 does not confer any rights or benefits upon Borrowers or any other Person. As between Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, any action that the Administrative Agent may take under any Loan Documents

-65-

or with respect to any Obligations shall be conclusively presumed to have been authorized and directed by Secured Parties.

SECTION 13.BENEFIT OF AGREEMENT; ASSIGNMENTS

13.1.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, Lenders, Secured Parties, and their respective successors and assigns, except that (a) no Borrower shall have the right to assign its rights or delegate its obligations under any Loan Documents; and (b) any assignment by a Lender must be made in compliance with Section 13.3. The Administrative Agent may treat the Person which made any Loan as the owner thereof for all purposes until such Person makes an assignment in accordance with Section 13.3. Any authorization or consent of a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on any subsequent transferee or assignee of such Lender.

13.2.Participations.

13.2.1.Permitted Participants; Effect. Subject to Section 13.3.3, any Lender may sell to a financial institution (“Participant”) a participating interest in the rights and obligations of such Lender under any Loan Documents. Despite any sale by a Lender of participating interests to a Participant, such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for performance of such obligations, such Lender shall remain the holder of its Loans and Commitments for all purposes, all amounts payable by Borrowers shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participating interests, and Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with the Loan Documents. Each Lender shall be solely responsible for notifying its Participants of any matters under the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall not have any obligation or liability to any such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.9 unless Borrowers agree otherwise in writing.

13.2.2.Voting Rights. Each Lender shall retain the sole right to approve, without the consent of any Participant, any amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents other than that which forgives principal, interest or fees, reduces the stated interest rate or fees payable with respect to any Loan or Commitment in which such Participant has an interest, postpones the Termination Date or any date fixed for any regularly scheduled payment of principal, interest or fees on such Loan or Commitment, or releases any Borrower, Guarantor or substantially all Collateral.

13.2.3.Participant Register. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), maintain a register in which it enters the Participant’s name, address and interest in Commitments and Loans (and stated interest). Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person recorded in the register as the owner of the participation for all purposes, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. No Lender shall have an obligation to disclose any information in such register except to the extent necessary to establish that a Participant’s interest is in registered form under the Code.

13.2.4.Benefit of Setoff. Borrowers agree that each Participant shall have a right of setoff in respect of its participating interest to the same extent as if such interest were owing directly to a Lender, and each Lender shall also retain the right of setoff with respect to any participating interests sold by it. By exercising any right of setoff, a Participant agrees to share with Lenders all amounts received through its setoff, in accordance with Section 12.5 as if such Participant were a Lender.

-66-

13.3.Assignments.

13.3.1.Permitted Assignments. A Lender may assign to an Eligible Assignee any of its rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, as long as (a) each assignment is of a constant, and not a varying, percentage of the transferor Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents and, in the case of a partial assignment, is in a minimum principal amount of U.S.$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion) and integral multiples of U.S.$5,000,000 in excess of that amount; (b) except in the case of an assignment in whole of a Lender’s rights and obligations, the aggregate amount of Commitments retained by the transferor Lender is at least U.S.$10,000,000 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion); and (c) the parties to each such assignment shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent, for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Acceptance. Nothing herein shall limit the right of a Lender to pledge or assign any rights under the Loan Documents to secure obligations of such Lender, including a pledge or assignment to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided, however, that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from its obligations hereunder nor substitute the pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

13.3.2.Effect; Effective Date. Upon delivery to Administrative Agent of an assignment notice in the form of Exhibit C and a processing fee of U.S.$3,500 (unless otherwise agreed by Administrative Agent in its discretion), the assignment shall become effective as specified in the notice, if it complies with this Section 13.3. From such effective date, the Eligible Assignee shall for all purposes be a Lender under the Loan Documents, and shall have all rights and obligations of a Lender thereunder. Upon consummation of an assignment, the transferor Lender, Administrative Agent and Borrowers shall make appropriate arrangements for issuance of a replacement and/or new Note, as applicable. The transferee Lender shall comply with Section 5.10 and deliver, upon request, an administrative questionnaire satisfactory to Administrative Agent.

13.3.3.Certain Assignees. No assignment or participation may be made to a Borrower, Affiliate of a Borrower, Defaulting Lender or natural person. Any assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall be effective only upon payment by the Eligible Assignee or Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent of an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution (through direct payment, purchases of participations, or other compensating actions as the Administrative Agent deems appropriate), to satisfy all funding and payment liabilities then owing by the Defaulting Lender hereunder. If an assignment by a Defaulting Lender shall become effective under Applicable Law for any reason without compliance with the foregoing sentence, then the assignee shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender for all purposes until such compliance occurs.

13.3.4.Register. The Administrative Agent, acting as a non-fiduciary agent of Borrowers (solely for tax purposes), shall maintain (a) a copy (or electronic equivalent) of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it, and (b) a register for recordation of the names, addresses, and Commitments of, and the Loans and interest owing to, each Lender. Entries in the register shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, and Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall treat each lender recorded in such register as a Lender for all purposes under the Loan Documents, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Administrative Agent may choose to show only one Borrower as the borrower in the register, without any effect on the liability of any Obligor with respect to the Obligations. The register shall be available for inspection by Borrowers or any Lender, from time to time upon reasonable notice.

13.4.Replacement of Certain Lenders. If (a) any Lender gives a notice under Section 3.5 or requests compensation under Section 3.7, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant

-67-

to Section 5.9 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different lending office in accordance with Section 3.8, or (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, a Non-Consenting Lender or a Non-Renewing Lender, then the Borrower Agent may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 13.3), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 3.7 and Section 5.9) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible 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 paid to the Administrative Agent the processing fee (if any) specified in Section 13.3.2;

(ii)such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.9) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii)in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 3.7 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.9, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv)such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Law; and

(v)in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Non-Consenting Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower Agent to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

SECTION 14. MISCELLANEOUS

14.1.Consents, Amendments and Waivers.

14.1.1.Amendment. No modification of any Loan Document, including any extension or amendment of a Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or Event of Default, shall be effective without the prior written agreement of Administrative Agent (with the consent of Required Lenders) and each Obligor party to such Loan Document; provided, however, that

(a)without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, no modification shall be effective with respect to any provision in a Loan Document that relates to any rights, duties or discretion of the Administrative Agent;

(b)without the prior written consent of each affected Lender, including a Defaulting Lender, no modification shall be effective that would (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender; (ii) reduce the amount of, or waive or delay payment of, any principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender (except as provided in Section 4.2); provided, however, that only the consent of the Required Lenders

shall be necessary to amend the definition of “Default Rate”; (iii) extend the Termination Date; (iv) modify or waive any mandatory prepayment required under Section 5.2.2(c); or (v) amend this clause (b); and

(c)without the prior written consent of all Lenders (except any Defaulting Lender), no modification shall be effective that would (i) alter Sections 5.6.2, 10.3.3 or 14.1.1 or the proviso set forth in Section 12.2.1(a); (ii) amend the definitions of (A) Pro Rata or (B) Required Lenders; (iii) release all or substantially all of the Collateral; (iv) release any portion of the Collateral if such release would result in the Borrowers’ failure to comply with the covenant set forth in Section 10.3.3; (v) except in connection with a merger, disposition or similar transaction expressly permitted hereby, release any Obligor from liability for any Obligations; or (vi) amend provisions herein relating to the Pro Rata treatment of (x) payments or (y) reductions in the Commitments.

14.1.2.Limitations. The agreement of Borrowers shall not be necessary to the effectiveness of any modification of a Loan Document that deals solely with the rights and duties of Lenders and the Administrative Agent as among themselves. Only the consent of the parties to the Fee Letter shall be required for any modification of such agreement. Any waiver or consent granted by the Administrative Agent or Lenders hereunder shall be effective only if in writing and only for the matter specified.

14.1.3.Payment for Consents. No Borrower will, directly or indirectly, pay any remuneration or other thing of value, whether by way of additional interest, fee or otherwise, to any Lender (in its capacity as a Lender hereunder) as consideration for agreement by such Lender with any modification of any Loan Documents, unless such remuneration or value is concurrently paid, on the same terms, on a Pro Rata basis to all Lenders providing their consent.

14.2.Indemnity. EACH BORROWER SHALL INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS THE INDEMNITEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS THAT MAY BE INCURRED BY OR ASSERTED AGAINST ANY INDEMNITEE, INCLUDING CLAIMS ASSERTED BY ANY OBLIGOR OR OTHER PERSON OR ARISING FROM THE NEGLIGENCE OF AN INDEMNITEE. In no event shall any party to a Loan Document have any obligation thereunder to indemnify or hold harmless an Indemnitee with respect to a Claim that is determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction to result from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 14.2 shall not apply to any Claim on account of Taxes governed by (or excluded from the application of) Sections 3.7 or 5.9.

14.3.Notices and Communications.

14.3.1.Notice Address. Subject to Section 4.1.4, all notices and other communications by or to a party hereto shall be in writing and shall be given to any Borrower, at Borrower Agent’s address shown on the signature pages hereof, and to any other Person at its address shown on the signature pages hereof (or, in the case of a Person who becomes a Lender after the Closing Date, at the address shown on its Assignment and Acceptance), or at such other address as a party may hereafter specify by notice in accordance with this Section 14.3. Each such notice or other communication shall be effective only (a) if given by facsimile transmission, when transmitted to the applicable facsimile number, if confirmation of receipt is received; (b) if given by mail, three Business Days after deposit in the U.S. mail, with first-class postage pre-paid, addressed to the applicable address; or (c) if given by personal delivery, when duly delivered to the notice address with receipt acknowledged. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.1.4, 3.1.2, 4.1.1 or 5.2.3 shall be effective until actually received by the individual to whose attention at the Administrative Agent such notice is required to be sent. Any written notice or other communication that

-69-

is not sent in conformity with the foregoing provisions shall nevertheless be effective on the date actually received by the noticed party. Any notice received by Borrower Agent shall be deemed received by all Borrowers.

14.3.2.Electronic Communications; Voice Mail. Electronic mail and internet websites may be used only for routine communications, such as delivery of Borrower Materials, administrative matters, distribution of Loan Documents, and matters permitted under Section 4.1.4. The Administrative Agent and Lenders make no assurances as to the privacy and security of electronic communications. Electronic mail and voice mail may not be used as effective notice under the Loan Documents.

14.3.3.Platform. Borrower Materials shall be delivered pursuant to procedures approved by Administrative Agent, including electronic delivery (if possible) upon request by Administrative Agent to an electronic system maintained by Administrative Agent (“Platform”). Borrowers shall notify Administrative Agent of each posting of Borrower Materials on the Platform and the materials shall be deemed received by Administrative Agent only upon its receipt of such notice. Borrower Materials and other information relating to this credit facility may be made available to Secured Parties on the Platform, and Obligors and Secured Parties acknowledge that “public” information is not segregated from material non-public information on the Platform. The Platform is provided “as is” and “as available.” Administrative Agent does not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information on the Platform nor the adequacy or functioning of the Platform, and expressly disclaims liability for any errors or omissions in the Borrower Materials or any issues involving the Platform. 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 ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WITH RESPECT TO BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. Secured Parties acknowledge that Borrower Materials may include material non-public information of Obligors and should not be made available to any personnel who do not wish to receive such information or who may be engaged in investment or other market-related activities with respect to any Obligor’s securities. No Agent Indemnitee shall have any liability to Borrowers, Secured Parties or any other Person for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) relating to use by any Person of the Platform or delivery of Borrower Materials and other information through the Platform or over the internet.

14.3.4.Non-Conforming Communications. The Administrative Agent and Lenders may rely upon any communications purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower even if they were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not confirmed, or if the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from a later confirmation. Each Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from any liabilities, losses, costs and expenses arising from any electronic or telephonic communication purportedly given by or on behalf of a Borrower.

14.4.Performance of Borrowers’ Obligations. Following the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion at any time and from time to time, at Borrowers’ expense, pay any amount or do any act required of a Borrower under any Loan Documents or otherwise lawfully requested by the Administrative Agent to (a) enforce any Loan Documents or collect any Obligations; (b) protect, insure, maintain or realize upon any Collateral; or (c) defend or maintain the validity or priority of the Administrative Agent’s Liens in any Collateral, including any payment of a judgment, insurance premium, or any discharge of a Lien. All payments, costs and expenses (including Extraordinary Expenses) of the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be reimbursed to the Administrative Agent by Borrowers, on demand, with interest from the date incurred until paid in full, at the Default Rate applicable to Base Rate Loans. Any payment made or action taken

-70-

by the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be without prejudice to any right to assert an Event of Default or to exercise any other rights or remedies under the Loan Documents.

14.5.Credit Inquiries. The Administrative Agent and Lenders may (but shall have no obligation) to respond to usual and customary credit inquiries from third parties concerning any Obligor or Subsidiary.

14.6.Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of the Loan Documents shall be interpreted in such manner as to be valid under Applicable Law. If any provision is found to be invalid under Applicable Law, it shall be ineffective only to the extent of such invalidity and the remaining provisions of the Loan Documents shall remain in full force and effect.

14.7.Cumulative Effect; Conflict of Terms. The provisions of the Loan Documents are cumulative. The parties acknowledge that the Loan Documents may use several limitations or measurements to regulate similar matters, and they agree that these are cumulative and that each must be performed as provided. Except as otherwise provided in another Loan Document (by specific reference to the applicable provision of this Agreement), if any provision contained herein is in direct conflict with any provision in another Loan Document, the provision herein shall govern and control.

14.8.Counterparts; Execution. Any Loan Document may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement shall become effective when Administrative Agent has received counterparts bearing the signatures of all parties hereto. Delivery of a signature page of any Loan Document by telecopy or other electronic means shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of such agreement. Any electronic signature, contract formation on an electronic platform and electronic record-keeping shall have the same legal validity and enforceability as a manually executed signature or use of a paper-based recordkeeping system to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any similar state law based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

14.9.Time is of the Essence. Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary herein or in another Loan Document, time is of the essence with respect to all Loan Documents and Obligations.

14.10.Relationship with Lenders. The obligations of each Lender hereunder are several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligations or Commitments of any other Lender. Amounts payable hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt. It shall not be necessary for the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purposes. Nothing in this Agreement and no action of the Administrative Agent, Lenders or any other Secured Party pursuant to the Loan Documents or otherwise shall be deemed to constitute the Administrative Agent and any Secured Party to be a partnership, association, joint venture or any other kind of entity, nor to constitute control of any Obligor.

14.11.No Advisory or Fiduciary Responsibility. In connection with all aspects of each transaction contemplated by any Loan Document, Borrowers acknowledge and agree that (a)(i) this credit facility and any related arranging or other services by the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger are arm’s-length commercial transactions between Borrowers and their Affiliates, on one hand, and the Administrative Agent, any Lender, any of their Affiliates or any arranger, on the other hand; (ii) Borrowers have consulted their own legal, accounting, regulatory and tax advisors to the extent they have deemed appropriate; and (iii) Borrowers are capable of evaluating, and understand and accept, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents; (b) each of the Administrative Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger is and has been acting solely

-71-

as a principal and, except as expressly agreed in writing by the relevant parties, has not been, is not, and will not be acting as an advisor, agent or fiduciary for Borrowers, any of their Affiliates or any other Person, and has no obligation with respect to the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents except as expressly set forth therein; and (c) the Administrative Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger may be engaged in a broad range of transactions that involve interests that differ from those of Borrowers and their Affiliates, and have no obligation to disclose any of such interests to Borrowers or their Affiliates. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower hereby waives and releases any claims that it may have against the Administrative Agent, Lenders, their Affiliates and any arranger with respect to any breach of agency or fiduciary duty in connection with any transaction contemplated by a Loan Document.

14.12.Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders shall maintain the confidentiality of all Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates, and to its and their partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, advisors and representatives (provided such Persons are informed of the confidential nature of the Information and instructed to keep it confidential); (b) to the extent requested by any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it or its Affiliates; (c) to the extent required by Applicable Law or by any subpoena or other legal process; (d) to any other party hereto; (e) in connection with any action or proceeding, or other exercise of rights or remedies, relating to any Loan Documents or Obligations; (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as this Section, to any Transferee or any actual or prospective party (or its advisors) to any Bank Product or to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to an Obligor or Obligor’s obligations; (g) with the consent of Borrower Agent; or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) is available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent and Lenders may publish or disseminate general information concerning this credit facility for league table, tombstone and advertising purposes, and may use Borrowers’ logos, trademarks or product photographs in advertising materials that refer to this credit facility. As used herein, “Information” means all information received from an Obligor or Subsidiary relating to it or its business that is identified as confidential when delivered. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information pursuant to this Section shall be deemed to have complied if it exercises a degree of care similar to that which it accords its own confidential information. Each of the Administrative Agent and Lenders acknowledges that (i) Information may include material non-public information; (ii) it has developed compliance procedures regarding the use of material non-public information; and (iii) it will handle such material non-public information in accordance with Applicable Law.

14.13.[Intentionally Omitted.]

14.14.GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED, SHALL BE GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT GIVING EFFECT TO ANY CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES (BUT GIVING EFFECT TO FEDERAL LAWS RELATING TO NATIONAL BANKS).

14.15.Consent to Forum. EACH BORROWER HEREBY CONSENTS TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE JURISDICTION OF ANY FEDERAL OR STATE COURT SITTING IN OR WITH JURISDICTION OVER NEW YORK, IN ANY PROCEEDING OR DISPUTE RELATING IN ANY WAY TO ANY LOAN DOCUMENTS, AND AGREES THAT ANY SUCH PROCEEDING SHALL BE BROUGHT BY IT SOLELY IN ANY SUCH COURT. EACH BORROWER IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ALL CLAIMS, OBJECTIONS AND DEFENSES THAT IT MAY

-72-

HAVE REGARDING SUCH COURT’S PERSONAL OR SUBJECT MATTER JURISDICTION, VENUE OR INCONVENIENT FORUM. EACH PARTY HERETO IRREVOCABLY CONSENTS TO SERVICE OF PROCESS IN THE MANNER PROVIDED FOR NOTICES IN SECTION 14.3.1. Nothing herein shall limit the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to bring proceedings against any Obligor in any other court, nor limit the right of any party to serve process in any other manner permitted by Applicable Law. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to preclude enforcement by the Administrative Agent of any judgment or order obtained in any forum or jurisdiction.

14.16.Waivers by Borrowers. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, each Borrower waives (a) the right to trial by jury (which the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby also waives) in any proceeding or dispute of any kind relating in any way to any Loan Documents, Obligations or Collateral; (b) presentment, demand, protest, notice of presentment, default, non-payment, maturity, release, compromise, settlement, extension or renewal of any commercial paper, accounts, documents, instruments, chattel paper and guaranties at any time held by the Administrative Agent on which a Borrower may in any way be liable, and hereby ratifies anything the Administrative Agent may do in this regard; (c) notice prior to taking possession or control of any Collateral; (d) any bond or security that might be required by a court prior to allowing the Administrative Agent to exercise any rights or remedies; (e) the benefit of all valuation, appraisement and exemption laws; (f) any claim against the Administrative Agent or any Lender, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) in any way relating to any Enforcement Action, Obligations, Loan Documents or transactions relating thereto; and (g) notice of acceptance hereof. Each Borrower acknowledges that the foregoing waivers are a material inducement to the Administrative Agent and Lenders entering into this Agreement and that they are relying upon the foregoing in their dealings with Borrowers. Each Borrower has reviewed the foregoing waivers with its legal counsel and has knowingly and voluntarily waived its jury trial and other rights following consultation with legal counsel. In the event of litigation, this Agreement may be filed as a written consent to a trial by the court.

14.17.Patriot Act Notice. The Administrative Agent and Lenders hereby notify Borrowers that pursuant to the Patriot Act, the Administrative Agent and Lenders are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies each Borrower, including its legal name, address, tax ID number and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and Lenders to identify it in accordance with the Patriot Act. The Administrative Agent and Lenders will also require information regarding each personal guarantor, if any, and may require information regarding Borrowers’ management and owners, such as legal name, address, social security number and date of birth. The Borrowers shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender requests in order to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the Patriot Act.

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