Holdings’ and each Obligor’s execution, delivery and performance of this Amendment does not (i) conflict with, or constitute a violation or breach of, the terms of (A) any contract, mortgage, lease, agreement, indenture, or instrument to which Holdings, such Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is a party or which is binding upon it, (B) any Requirement of Law applicable to Holdings, such Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or (C) any Charter Documents of Holdings, such Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, in each case under clauses (A), (B) and (C), in any respect that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or (ii) result in the imposition of any Lien (other than the Liens created by the Security Documents) upon the property of Holdings, such Obligor or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries by reason of any of the foregoing;

(b) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would occur, in each case, immediately prior to and after giving effect to this Amendment and the First Amendment to Term Loan Credit Agreement;

(c) no approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action by, or notice to, or filing with, any Governmental Authority or other Person is necessary or required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by, or enforcement against, Holdings or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of this Amendment other than where failure to obtain, effect or make any such approval, consent, exemption, authorization, or other action, notice or filing would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; and

(d) after giving effect to this Amendment and the First Amendment to Term Loan Credit Agreement, the representations and warranties of Holdings and each of its Restricted Subsidiaries contained in the Credit Agreement and each other Loan Document are true and correct in all material respects (and any representation and warranty that is qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect is true and correct in all respects) on and as of the First Amendment Effective Date as though made on and as of such date, other than any such representation or warranty which relates to a specified prior date, in which case such representations and warranties were true and correct in all material respects as of such prior date.

(a) Except as expressly provided herein (i) the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be unmodified and shall continue to be in full force and effect in accordance with their terms, (ii) the consents and agreements of the Agent and the Lenders set forth herein shall be limited strictly as written and shall not constitute a consent or agreement to any transaction not specifically described in connection with any such consent and/or agreement, and (iii) this Amendment shall not be deemed a waiver of any term or condition of any Loan Document and shall not be deemed to prejudice any right or rights which the Agent or any Lender may now have or may have in the future under or in connection with any Loan Document or any of the instruments or agreements referred to therein, as the same may be amended from time to time.

(b) This Amendment shall constitute a Loan Document.

(c) Each of the Borrower, Holdings and the other Obligors hereby confirms and agrees that, notwithstanding the effectiveness of this Amendment, each Loan Document to which such Obligor is a party is, and the obligations of such Obligor contained in the Credit Agreement (as amended by this Amendment) or in any other Loan Document to which it is a party are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects, in each case as modified by this Amendment. For greater certainty and without limiting the foregoing, each of the Borrower, Holdings and the other Obligors hereby confirms that the existing security interests granted by such Obligor in favor of the Secured Parties pursuant to the Loan Documents in the Collateral described therein shall continue to secure the Obligations as and to the extent provided in the Loan Documents.

SECTION 7. Authorization and Consent to Intercreditor Agreement Amendment. By executing this Amendment, each Lender party hereto hereby authorizes and directs the Agent and Collateral Agent to execute and deliver the Amendment to Intercreditor.

It is understood and agreed that each reference in each Loan Document to the Credit Agreement, whether direct or indirect, shall hereafter be deemed to be a reference to the Credit Agreement as modified hereby and that this Amendment is a Loan Document.

SECTION 11. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION; WAIVERS; PROCESS AGENTS. THIS AMENDMENT SHALL BE INTERPRETED AND THE RIGHTS AND LIABILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. SECTION 14.3 OF THE CREDIT AGREEMENT IS HEREBY INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THIS AMENDMENT AS IF SUCH PROVISION WERE SET FORTH IN FULL HEREIN MUTATIS MUTANDIS AND SHALL APPLY HERETO.

SECTION 12. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THIS AMENDMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY, IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR OTHER LITIGATION OF ANY TYPE BROUGHT BY ANY OF THE PARTIES AGAINST ANY OTHER PARTY OR ANY AGENT-RELATED PERSON, PARTICIPANT OR ASSIGNEE, WHETHER WITH RESPECT TO CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, OR OTHERWISE. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AGREES THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE TRIED BY A COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY. WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE PARTIES FURTHER AGREE THAT THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IS WAIVED BY OPERATION OF THIS SECTION AS TO ANY ACTION, COUNTERCLAIM OR OTHER PROCEEDING WHICH SEEKS, IN WHOLE OR IN PART, TO CHALLENGE THE VALIDITY OR ENFORCEABILITY OF THIS AMENDMENT OR ANY PROVISION HEREOF. THIS WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AMENDMENT.

SECTION 14. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts, and by each party hereto in separate counterparts, each of which shall be an original, but all of which shall together constitute one and the same agreement; signature pages may be detached from multiple separate counterparts and attached to a single counterpart so that all signature pages are physically attached to the same document.

The Lenders, however, in their unanimous discretion, may elect to make Revolving Loans or issue or arrange to have issued Letters of Credit in excess of the Borrowing Base on one or more occasions, but if they do so, neither the Agent nor the Lenders shall be deemed thereby to have changed the limits of the Borrowing Base or to be obligated to exceed such limits on any other occasion. If any such Borrowing would exceed Availability, the Lenders may refuse to make or may otherwise restrict the making of Revolving Loans as the Lenders determine until such excess has been eliminated, subject to the Agent’s authority, in its sole discretion, to make Agent Advances pursuant to the terms of Section 2.4(g).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Letter of Credit Issuer shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit if the aggregate maximum amount of all Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer would exceed its L/C Commitment. With respect to any Letter of Credit which contains any “evergreen” or automatic renewal or extension provision, if such Letter of Credit permits the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer to prevent any extension by giving notice to the beneficiary thereof no later than a date (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”), once any such Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized such Letter of Credit Issuer to permit extensions of such Letter of Credit to an expiry date not later than the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Stated Termination Date, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from the Required Lenders declining to consent to any such extension at least thirty (30) days prior to the Non-Extension Notice Date; provided that no Lender may decline to consent to any such extension if all of the requirements of this Section 2.3 are met and no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

(ii) as of the date of issuance, no order of any court, arbitrator or Governmental Authority shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer from issuing letters of credit of the type and in the amount of the proposed Letter of Credit, and no Law applicable to the applicable

113

Letter of Credit Issuer and no request or directive (whether or not having the force of Law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Letter of Credit Issuer shall prohibit, or request that the proposed Letter of Credit Issuer refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or the issuance of such Letters of Credit, and

(iii) No Extensions or Amendment. Except in the case of Letters of Credit subject to evergreen or automatic renewal provisions, no Letter of Credit Issuer shall be required to extend, renew or amend any Letter of Credit issued pursuant hereto unless the requirements of this Section 2.3 are met as though a new Letter of Credit were being requested and issued.

(e) Payments Pursuant to Letters of Credit.

(f) Indemnification; Exoneration; Power of Attorney.

(i) Indemnification. In addition to amounts payable as elsewhere provided in this Section 2.3, the Borrower agrees to protect, indemnify, pay and save the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer harmless from and against any and all claims, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, costs, charges and reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable Attorney Costs) which such Letter of Credit Issuer may incur or be subject to as a consequence, direct or indirect, of the issuance of any Letter of Credit, except that the foregoing indemnity shall not apply to such Letter of Credit Issuer to the extent of acts or omissions arises out of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Letter of Credit Issuer (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision).

Unless otherwise agreed by the Agent, each Letter of Credit Issuer shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer, including all issuances, extensions, and amendments, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Letter of Credit Issuer issues, amends or extends

117

any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Letter of Credit Issuer makes any payment with respect to a Letter of Credit, the date and amount of such payment, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse Unpaid Drawings required to be reimbursed to such Letter of Credit Issuer on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such Unpaid Drawings, and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer.

2.4 Loan Administration.

(a) Procedure for Borrowing.

(i) Each Borrowing by the Borrower shall be made upon the Borrower’s written notice delivered to the Agent in the form of a notice of borrowing substantially in the form of Exhibit B (“Notice of Borrowing”), which must be received by the Agent prior to (w) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of Term Benchmark Loans, (x) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of Base Rate Loans, (y) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the Funding Date, in the case of Swingline Loans, and (z) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) five (5) Business Days prior to the requested Funding Date, in the case of RFR Loans, in each case specifying:

(A) whether such Borrowing is to be a Term Benchmark Borrowing, a Base Rate Borrowing or, to the extent then applicable, an RFR Borrowing (and if not specified, it shall be deemed a request for a Base Rate Borrowing);

(B) the amount of the Borrowing, which (x) in the case of a Term Benchmark Loan (or to the extent the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is then the applicable Benchmark, an RFR Loan), must equal or exceed $1,000,000 (and increments of $1,000,000 in excess of such amount) and (y) in the case of a Base Rate Loan, must equal or exceed $1,000,000 (and increments of $1,000,000 in excess of such amount);

(C) the requested Funding Date, which must be a Business Day; and

(D) in the case of a request for Term Benchmark Loans, the duration of the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto (and if not specified, it shall be deemed a request for an Interest Period of one month).

118

(ii) At the election of the Agent or the Required Lenders, the Borrower shall have no right to request a Term Benchmark Loan (or to the extent the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is then the applicable Benchmark, an RFR Loan) while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including any references to RFR Loans), as of the Closing Date, the only Type of Loans that are available to the Borrower are Base Rate Loans and Term Benchmark Loans.

(b) Reliance upon Authority. On or prior to the Closing Date, the Borrower shall deliver to the Agent a notice setting forth the account of the Borrower (such account, together with any replacement account, the “Designated Account”) to which the Agent is authorized to transfer the proceeds of the Loans requested hereunder unless otherwise directed in writing by the Borrower. The Borrower may designate a replacement account from time to time by written notice to the Agent. The Agent is entitled to rely conclusively on any Person’s request for Revolving Loans on behalf of the Borrower, so long as the proceeds thereof are to be transferred to the Designated Account or to another account designated by the Borrower in writing. The Agent has no duty to verify the identity of any individual representing himself or herself as a person authorized by the Borrower to make such requests on its behalf.

(c) No Liability. The Agent shall not incur any liability to the Borrower as a result of acting upon any notice referred to in Section 2.4(a) or (b), which the Agent believes in good faith to have been given by an officer or other person duly authorized by the Borrower to request Loans on its behalf. The crediting of Loans to the Designated Account conclusively establishes the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loans as provided herein.

(d) Borrower’s Election. Promptly after receipt of a Notice of Borrowing for a Revolving Base Rate Loan, the Borrower shall elect to have the terms of Section 2.4(e) or the terms of Section 2.4(f) apply to such requested Borrowing. If the condition in Section 2.4(f)(i)(C) is not satisfied, the terms of Section 2.4(e) shall apply to the requested Borrowing.

(e) Making of Revolving Loans. If the Borrower elects to have the terms of this Section 2.4(e) apply to a requested Revolving Credit Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan or if the Agent receives a Notice of Borrowing for a Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loans (if then applicable), then, promptly after receipt of the Notice of Borrowing with respect to such Revolving Base Rate Loan, Revolving Term Benchmark Loan or Revolving RFR Loan, the Agent shall notify the Revolving Credit Lenders by telecopy, telephone or e-mail of the requested Borrowing. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall transfer its Pro Rata Share of the requested Borrowing to the Agent in immediately available funds, to the account from time to time designated by the Agent, not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the applicable Funding Date; provided that on the Closing Date, such funds may be made available at such earlier time as may be agreed among the relevant Lenders, the Borrower and the Agent for the purpose of consummating the Transactions. After the Agent’s receipt of all such amounts from the Lenders (or, in the event that a Defaulting Lender does not fund its portion of Loans, after the Agent receives such amounts from all other Lenders), the Agent shall make the aggregate of such amounts available to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds to the account(s) designated by the Borrower; provided, however, that the amount of Revolving Loans so made on any date shall not exceed the then-current Availability on such date.

119

(f) Making of Swingline Loans.

(i) If the Borrower elects to have the terms of this Section 2.4(f) apply to a requested Revolving Credit Borrowing of a Base Rate Loan, the Swingline Lender shall make a Revolving Loan in the amount of that Borrowing available to the Borrower on the applicable Funding Date by transferring same day funds to the Designated Account or such other account(s) as may be designated by the Borrower in writing. Each Revolving Loan made solely by the Swingline Lender pursuant to this Section 2.4(f) is herein referred to as a “Swingline Loan,” and such Revolving Loans are collectively referred to as the “Swingline Loans.” Each Swingline Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other Revolving Loans except that all payments thereon (including interest) shall be payable to the Swingline Lender solely for its own account. The Agent shall not request the Swingline Lender to make any Swingline Loan if (A) the Agent has received written notice from any Lender that one or more of the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IX will not be satisfied on the requested Funding Date for the applicable Borrowing, (B) the requested Borrowing would exceed then- current Availability on that Funding Date (as reasonably determined by the Agent), or (C) such Swingline Loan would cause the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Swingline Loans to exceed $15,000,000 (the “Swingline Sublimit”).

(ii) The Swingline Loans shall be secured by the Collateral Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Loans and Obligations hereunder.

(g) Agent Advances.

(i) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Agent is authorized by the Borrower and the Revolving Credit Lenders, from time to time in the Agent’s sole discretion, upon notice to the Revolving Credit Lenders, (A) after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, or (B) at any time that any of the other conditions precedent set forth in Article IX have not been satisfied, to make Base Rate Loans to the Borrower on behalf of the Lenders in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed 10% of the Borrowing Base (provided that the making of any such Loan does not cause the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings to exceed the Maximum Revolver Amount) which the Agent, in its good faith judgment, deems necessary or desirable (1) to preserve or protect the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (2) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and other Obligations (including through Base Rate Loans for the purpose of enabling Holdings and its Subsidiaries to meet their payroll and associated Tax obligations), and/or (3) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, including costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 14.7 (any of such advances are herein referred to as “Agent Advances”); provided, that the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Agent’s authorization to make Agent Advances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Agent’s receipt thereof.

120

(ii) The Agent Advances shall be secured by the Collateral Agent’s Liens in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Base Rate Loans and Obligations hereunder.

(h) Notice Irrevocable. Other than any Notice of Borrowing for a Base Rate Loan made on or prior to the Closing Date, any Notice of Borrowing made pursuant to Section 2.4(a) shall be irrevocable. The Borrower shall be bound to borrow the funds requested therein in accordance therewith.

2.5 Reserves. The Agent may establish Reserves or change (including by decreasing the amount of) any of the Reserves, in the exercise of its Reasonable Credit Judgment; provided that such Reserves shall not be established or changed except upon not less than five (5) Business Days’ notice to the Borrower (unless an Event of Default exists and is continuing in which event such notice (which may be oral) may be given at any time prior to the establishment or change and shall not be subject to the five (5) Business Day notice requirement); provided, further, that no such prior notice shall be required for any changes to any Reserves resulting solely by virtue of mathematical calculations of the amount of the Reserves in accordance with the methodology of calculation previously utilized. The Agent will be available during such period to discuss any such proposed Reserve or change with the Borrower and without limiting the right of the Agent to establish or change such Reserves in the Agent’s Reasonable Credit Judgment, the Borrower may take such action as may be required so that the event, condition or matter that is the basis for such Reserve no longer exists, in a manner and to the extent reasonably satisfactory to the Agent. During such five (5) Business Days’ notice period, Borrower may not obtain any new Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) or Letters of Credit to the extent that such Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) or Letters of Credit would cause an Out-Of-Formula Condition to occur after giving effect to the establishment or increase of such Reserve as set forth in such notice. The amount of any Reserve established by the Agent pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.5 shall have a reasonable relationship as determined by the Agent in its Reasonable Credit Judgment to the event, condition or other matter that is the basis for the Reserve. In the event that the Agent has determined to establish or change a Reserve pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.5 and the Reserve amount to be so established or as modified is inconsistent with the Reserve amount determined by the Agent, then the greater Reserve amount so determined shall apply. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, a Reserve shall not be established to the extent that such Reserve would be duplicative of any specific item excluded as ineligible in the definition of “Eligible Account”, “Eligible Inventory” or “Eligible Unbilled Account”, or of any then-existing Reserve. The establishment of any Reserve with respect to any obligation, charge, liability, debt or otherwise shall in no event grant any rights or be deemed to have granted any rights in such reserved amount to the holder of such obligation, charge, liability or debt or any other Person (except as explicitly set forth hereunder), but shall solely be viewed as amounts reserved to protect the interests of the Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

121

2.6 Incremental Credit Extension.

(a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the ClosingFirst Amendment Effective Date, by written notice delivered to the Agent, request one or more increases in the amount under any Class of Revolving Credit Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase”).

(b) Each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $5,000,000 (provided that such amount may be less than $5,000,000 if such amount represents all remaining availability under the limit set forth below) (and in minimum increments of $5,000,000 in excess thereof), and the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitment Increases (after giving Pro Forma Effect thereto and the use of the proceeds thereof) incurred pursuant to this Section 2.6(b) after the First Amendment Effective Date shall not exceed $100,000,000.

(c) The Revolving Credit Commitment Increases shall be treated the same as the Revolving Credit Commitments (except that the maturity date thereof shall be no earlier than the initial Stated Termination Date for the Revolving Credit Facility) and shall be considered to be part of the Revolving Credit Commitments (it being understood that, if required to consummate a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the interest rate margins, rate floors and undrawn commitment fees on the Revolving Credit Commitments may be increased so long as such increase also apply equally to the existing Revolving Credit Commitments and additional upfront or similar fees may be payable to the lenders providing the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase without any requirement to pay such upfront or similar fees to any then-existing Lenders). The Revolving Credit Commitment Increases may be in the form of a separate “first-in, last-out” or “last-out” tranche (the “FILO Tranche”) with interest rate margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, advance rates, premiums, unused fees, original issue discounts, amortization, and other terms to be agreed among the Borrower, the Agent and the applicable Lenders (without the consent of any Lenders not providing loans under the FILO Tranche) providing such Revolving Credit Commitment Increases (it being understood to the extent that any financial maintenance covenant is added for the benefit of any FILO Tranche, no consent shall be required from the Agent or any Lender to the extent that such financial maintenance covenant is also added for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Facility) and to be agreed upon among the Borrower and the Lenders providing the FILO Tranche so long as (1) any loans and related obligations in respect of the FILO Tranche shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than the Guarantors and shall rank equal (or, at the option of the Borrower, junior) in right of priority to the Collateral Agent’s Liens; (2) as between (x) the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche) and (y) the FILO Tranche, all proceeds from the liquidation or other realization of the Collateral shall be applied, first to obligations owing under, or with respect to, the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche) and second to the FILO Tranche; (3) no Borrower may prepay Loans under the FILO Tranche or terminate or reduce the commitments in respect thereof at any time that other Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) and/or Unpaid Drawings (unless cash collateralized or otherwise provided for in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Agent) are outstanding; (4) the Required Lenders (calculated as including the FILO Tranche) shall, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement, control exercise of remedies in respect of the Collateral; and (5) no changes affecting the priority status of the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche) vis-à-vis the FILO Tranche may be made without the consent of each of the Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility (other than the FILO Tranche).

122

(d) Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.6 shall be given in writing and shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. Revolving Credit Commitment Increases may be provided subject to the prior written consent of the Borrower, by any existing Lender (it being understood that no existing Lender will have an obligation to make a portion of any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase) or by any other bank, financial institution, other institutional lender or other investor (any such other bank, financial institution or other investor being called an “Additional Lender”); provided that (i) each existing Lender shall be offered the opportunity to participate in the relevant Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (other than in the case of a FILO Tranche) on a pro rata basis based on such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment prior to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and (ii) the Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Letter of Credit Issuer shall have consented (in each case, not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to such Lender’s or Additional Lender’s providing such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase if such consent would be required under Section 12.2 for an assignment of Loans and/or Commitments to such Lender or Additional Lender.

(e) Commitments in respect of a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, including under a FILO Tranche, shall become Commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Agreement”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Agent. The Incremental Agreement may, subject to Section 2.6(c), without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or advisable in the reasonable opinion of the Borrower and the Agent to effect the provisions of this Section 2.6. The effectiveness of any Incremental Agreement shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (each, an “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) and the occurrence of any extension of credit thereunder shall be subject to (i) the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 9.2(a) (provided that, with respect to any FILO Tranche that is entered into in connection with a Permitted Acquisition or other similaracquisition constituting a Permitted Investment permitted hereunder, compliance with clause (ii) thereof shall instead be limited to compliance with no Event of Default under Section 10.1(a), (c), (e), (f) and (g) having occurred and being in continuance), (ii) receipt by the Agent of (y) legal opinions, board resolutions and officers’ certificates reasonably satisfactory to the Agent and (z) reaffirmation agreements and/or such amendments to the Collateral Documents, in each case, as may be reasonably requested by the Agent in order to ensure that the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase is provided with the benefit of the applicable Loan Documents, and (iii) such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the loans under any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.

123

(f) (i) Except as set forth under clause (d) above, the Borrower shall not be obligated to offer any existing Lender the opportunity to provide any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase.

(ii) Upon each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.6, other than in connection with a FILO Tranche, each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each Lender providing a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (each, an “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender”) in respect of such increase, and each such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Lender’s participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding (A) participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and (B) participations hereunder in Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Credit Lender (including each such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender) will equal the percentage of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments represented by such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. The Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing, and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence or pursuant to a FILO Tranche.

(g) This Section 2.6 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.4(e) or 12.1 to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, any provisions of this Section 2.6 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided no such amendment shall require any Lender to provide any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase without such Lender’s consent.

(h) Upon (i) each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments causing theRevolving Credit Commitments to exceed $150,000,000 (or maintaining the RevolvingCredit Commitments above $150,000,000) pursuant to this Section 2.6 after the First Amendment Effective Date, the dollar thresholds set forth in the definitions of “Cash Dominion Period”, “Collateral Reporting Period”, “Covenant Trigger Period,””, “Specified Conditions”, and in Section 8.21 shall be increased in proportion to the amount of Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and (ii) each increase in the Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to thisSection 2.6, the dollar thresholds set forth in the definition of “Collateral Reporting Period” shall be increased in proportion to the amount ofthe Revolving Credit Commitment Increase.

2.7 Extensions of Revolving Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments.

(a) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class and/or the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class (and, in each case, including any previously extended Revolving Credit Commitments), existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing

124

Revolving Credit Commitment” and any related revolving credit loans under any such facility, “Existing Revolving Loans”; each Existing Revolving Credit Commitment and related Existing Revolving Loans together being referred to as an “Existing Revolving Credit Class”) be converted or exchanged to extend the termination date thereof and the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of Existing Revolving Loans related to such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (any such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments which have been so extended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments” and any related revolving credit loans, “Extended Revolving Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.7. Prior to entering into any Extension Agreement with respect to any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide written notice to the Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Class of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments, with such request offered equally to all Lenders of such Class) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments to be established thereunder, which terms shall be similar to those applicable to the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class”) except that (w) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, (x)(A) the interest rates, interest margins, rate floors, upfront fees, funding discounts, original issue discounts and prepayment premiums with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be different than those for the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class and/or (B) additional fees and/or premiums may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments in addition to or in lieu of any of the items contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (y)(1) the undrawn revolving credit commitment fee rates with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments may be different than those for the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class and (2) the Extension Agreement may provide for other covenants and terms that apply to any period after the Termination Date; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.7, or otherwise, (I) the borrowing and repayment (other than in connection with a permanent repayment and termination of commitments) of the Extended Revolving Loans under any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be made on a pro rata basis with any borrowings and repayments of the Existing Revolving Loans of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class (the mechanics for which may be implemented through the applicable Extension Agreement and may include technical changes related to the borrowing and repayment procedures of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class), (II) assignments and participations of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments and Extended Revolving Loans shall be governed by the assignment and participation provisions set forth in Section 12.2 and (III) subject to the applicable limitations set forth in Section 4.4(a) and (b), permanent repayments of Extended Revolving Loans (and corresponding permanent reduction in the related Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) shall be permitted as may be agreed between the Borrower and the Lenders thereof. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments of any Existing Revolving Credit Class converted or exchanged into

125

Extended Revolving Loans or Extended Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of any Extension Series shall constitute a separate Class of revolving credit commitments from Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class and from any other Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so established on such date).

(b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request to the Agent at least ten (10) Business Days (or such shorter period as the Agent may determine in its sole discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the Existing Revolving Credit Class are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Agent, in each case acting reasonably, to accomplish the purpose of this Section 2.7. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitments (or any earlier Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) of an Existing Revolving Credit Class subject to such Extension Request converted or exchanged into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall notify the Agent (an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitments (and/or any earlier- extended Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) which it has elected to convert or exchange into Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the Agent). In the event that the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments (and any earlier-extended Extended Revolving Credit Commitments) subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments requested pursuant to the Extension Request, Revolving Credit Commitments, or earlier-extended Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, subject to Extension Elections shall be converted to or exchanged to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments on a pro rata basis (subject to such rounding requirements as may be established by the Agent) based on the amount of Revolving Credit Commitments and earlier-extended Extended Revolving Credit Commitments included in each such Extension Election or as may be otherwise agreed to in the applicable Extension Agreement. Notwithstanding the conversion of any Existing Revolving Credit Commitment into an Extended Revolving Credit Commitment, unless expressly agreed by the holders of each affected Existing Revolving Credit Commitment of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, such Extended Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be treated more favorably than all Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class for purposes of the obligations of a Revolving Credit Lender in respect of Swingline Loans under Section 2.4 and Letters of Credit under Section 2.3, except that the applicable Extension Agreement may provide that the maturity date for the Swingline Loans and/or the last day for issuing Letters of Credit may be extended and the related obligations to make Swingline Loans and issue Letters of Credit may be continued (pursuant to mechanics to be specified in the applicable Extension Agreement) so long as the applicable Swingline Lender and/or the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer have consented to such extensions (it being understood that no consent of any other Lender shall be required in connection with any such extension).

126

(c) Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Agreement”) to this Agreement (which, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the second sentence of this Section 2.7(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 12.1, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments established thereby) executed by Holdings, the Obligors, the Agent and the Extending Lenders. In connection with any Extension Agreement, the Borrower shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Agent (i) as to the enforceability of such Extension Agreement, this Agreement as amended thereby, and such of the other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby (in the case of such other Loan Documents as contemplated by the immediately preceding sentence) and covering customary matters and (ii) to the effect that such Extension Agreement, including the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments provided for therein, does not breach or result in a default under the provisions of Section 12.1 of this Agreement, as modified by this Section 2.7(c).

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any Class of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments is converted or exchanged to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with Section 2.7(a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Existing Revolving Credit Commitments of each Extending Lender under any Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, the aggregate principal amount of such Existing Revolving Credit Commitments shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so converted or exchanged by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall be established as a separate Class of revolving credit commitments from the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class and from any other Existing Revolving Credit Commitments (together with any other Extended Revolving Credit Commitments so established on such date) and if, on any Extension Date, any Existing Revolving Loans of any Extending Lender are outstanding under the Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitment Class, such Existing Revolving Loans (and any related participations) shall be deemed to be converted or exchanged to Extended Revolving Loans (and related participations) of the applicable Class in the same proportion as such Extending Lender’s Specified Existing Revolving Credit Commitments Class to Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of such Class.

(e) In the event that the Agent determines in its sole discretion that the allocation of the Extended Revolving Credit Commitments of a given Extension Series, in each case to a given Lender was incorrectly determined as a result of manifest administrative error in the receipt and processing of an Extension Election timely submitted by such Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in the applicable Extension Agreement, then the Agent, the Borrower and such affected Lender may (and hereby are authorized to), in their sole discretion and without the consent of any other Lender, enter into an amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (each, a “Corrective Extension Agreement”) within 30 days following the effective date of such Extension Agreement, as the case may be, which Corrective Extension Agreement shall (i) provide for the conversion or exchange and extension of Existing Revolving Credit Commitments

127

(and related exposure) in such amount as is required to cause such Lender to hold Extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related exposure) of the applicable Extension Series into which such other Loans or commitments were initially converted or exchanged, as the case may be, in the amount such Lender would have held had such administrative error not occurred and had such Lender received the minimum allocation of the applicable Loans or Commitments to which it was entitled under the terms of such Extension Agreement, in the absence of such error, (ii) be subject to the satisfaction of such conditions as the Agent, the Borrower and such Lender may agree (including conditions of the type required to be satisfied for the effectiveness of an Extension Agreement described in Section 2.7(c)), and (iii) effect such other amendments of the type (with appropriate reference and nomenclature changes) described in the second sentence of Section 2.7(c).

(f) No conversion or exchange of Loans or Commitments pursuant to any Extension Agreement in accordance with this Section 2.7 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

(g) This Section 2.7 shall supersede any provisions in Section 2.4(e) or Section 12.1 to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, any of the provisions of this Section 2.7 may be amended with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such amendment shall require any Lender to provide any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments without such Lender’s consent.

2.8 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) the Unused Line Fee shall cease to accrue on any of the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.5;

(b) the Commitments and Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether all Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.1); provided that any waiver, amendment or modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or each affected Lender which affects such Defaulting Lender disproportionately when compared to the other affected Lenders, or increases or extends the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, shall require the consent of such Defaulting Lender;

(c) any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Agent for the account of that Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 10.2 or Section 10.3 or otherwise), shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by that Defaulting Lender to the Agent hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which that Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Agent; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by

128

any Lender against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to any Obligor as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Obligor against that Defaulting Lender as a result of that Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to that Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that, if such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the relevant Loans of the relevant non- Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied in the manner set forth in this clause (c);

(d) if any Swingline Loans are outstanding or Letters of Credit issued at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participations in such Swingline Loans and/or Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the non- Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Aggregate Revolver Outstandings does not exceed the lesser of the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitments and the Borrowing Base as of such date and (y) no such non-Defaulting Lender’s Aggregate Revolver Outstandings shall exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment at such time;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within three (3) Business Days following notice by the Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Loans and (y) second, cash collateralize for the benefit of the Letter of Credit Issuer only the Borrower’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) for so long as such participations in Letters of Credit are outstanding;

(iii) if the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Obligations pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.6 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit during the period such participations in Letters of Credit are cash collateralized;

(iv) if the participations in Letters of Credit of the non-Defaulting Lenders are reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Sections 3.5 and 3.6 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Pro Rata Shares; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s participations in Letters of Credit is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Letter of Credit Issuers or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 3.6 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participations in Letters of

129

Credit shall be payable to the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer until and to the extent that such participations in Letters of Credit are reallocated and/or cash collateralized;

(e) so long as (i) such Lender is a Defaulting Lender and (ii) a reallocation pursuant to clauses (d)(i) or (d)(ii) above cannot be effectuated, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan and the Letter of Credit Issuers shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it has received assurances reasonably satisfactory to it that non-Defaulting Lenders will cover the related exposure and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with this Section 2.8, and participating interests in any newly made Swingline Loan or any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with this Section 2.8 (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein); and

(f) in the event that the Agent, the Borrower, the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuers each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the obligations and participations of the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Revolving Credit Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Pro Rata Share; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties and subject to Section 14.21, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST AND FEES

3.1 Interest.

(a) Interest Rates. All outstanding Loans to the Borrower shall bear interest on the unpaid principal amount thereof (including, to the extent permitted by law, on interest thereon not paid when due) from the date made until paid in full in cash at a rate determined by reference to the Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR or, if then applicable, Daily Simple SOFR, in each case, plus the Applicable Margin, but not to exceed the Maximum Rate. If at any time Loans are outstanding with respect to which the Borrower has not delivered to the Agent a notice specifying the basis for determining the interest rate applicable thereto in accordance herewith, those Loans shall be treated as Base Rate Loans until notice to the contrary has been given to the Agent in accordance with this Agreement and such notice has become effective. Except as otherwise provided herein, the Loans shall bear interest as follows:

130

(i) For all Base Rate Loans, at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to the Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin; and

(ii) For all Term Benchmark Loans, at a fluctuating per annum rate equal to Adjusted Term SOFR for the Interest Period in effect for such Loan plus the Applicable Margin. To the extent the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is then the applicable Benchmark, each RFR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Applicable Margin.

Each change in the Base Rate (or any component thereof) shall be reflected in the interest rate applicable to Base Rate Loans as of the effective date of such change. All computations of interest for Base Rate Loans when the Base Rate is determined by the “Prime Rate” shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed. All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a 360-day year and actual days elapsed (which results in more fees or interest, as applicable, being paid than if computed on the basis of a 365-day year). On the first Business Day of each calendar quarter hereafter and on the Termination Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders (provided that all interest on applicable Swingline Loans shall be for the benefit of the Swingline Lender and all interest on Agent Advances shall be for the benefit of the Agent), interest accrued from the first Business Day of the preceding calendar quarter to (but not including) the first Business Day of such calendar quarter (or accrued to the Termination Date in the case of a payment on the Termination Date) on all Base Rate Loans in arrears. The Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, accrued interest on all RFR Loans and Term Benchmark Loans in arrears on each applicable SOFR Interest Payment Date.

(b) Default Rate. During the continuance of any Specified Event of Default, if the Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount becoming due hereunder, by acceleration or otherwise, or under any other Loan Document, the Borrower shall on demand from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by Law, on such defaulted amount to but excluding the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) (A) in the case of overdue principal, at the Default Rate, and (B) in all other cases, at a rate per annum equal to the rate that would be applicable to a Base Rate Loan plus 2.00%.

3.2 Continuation and Conversion Elections.

(a) The Borrower may (provided that the Borrowing of Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans is then permitted under Section 2.4(a)(ii)):

(i) elect, as of any Business Day, to convert any Base Rate Loans other than Agent Advances and Swingline Loans (or any part thereof) into Term Benchmark Loans (or RFR Loans to the extent that the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is then the applicable Benchmark); and

131

(ii) elect, as of the last day of the applicable Interest Period, to continue any Term Benchmark Loans having Interest Periods expiring on such day (or any part thereof);

provided that if the Notice of Continuation/Conversion shall fail to specify the duration of the Interest Period, such Interest Period shall be one month.

(b) The Borrower shall deliver a notice of continuation/conversion substantially in the form of Exhibit C (a “Notice of Continuation/Conversion”) to the Agent not later than, (x) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least three (3) Business Days in advance of the Continuation/Conversion Date if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as Term Benchmark Loans or (y) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) at least five (5) Business Days in advance of the Continuation/Conversion Date if the Loans are to be converted into or continued as RFR Loans (as applicable), in each case, and specifying:

(i) the proposed Continuation/Conversion Date;

(ii) the aggregate principal amount of Loans to be converted or continued;

(iii) the Type of Loans resulting from the proposed conversion or continuation; and

(iv) the duration of the requested Interest Period (in the case of Term Benchmark Loans), provided, however, the Borrower may not select an Interest Period that ends after the Stated Termination Date.

(c) If, upon the expiration of any Interest Period applicable to any Term Benchmark Loans, the Borrower fails to select timely a new Interest Period to be applicable to such Term Benchmark Loans, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to convert such Term Benchmark Loans into Base Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such Interest Period. If any Event of Default exists, at the election of the Agent or the Required Lenders, all Term Benchmark Loans shall be converted into Base Rate Loans as of the expiration date of each applicable Interest Period.

(d) The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of a Notice of Continuation/Conversion. All conversions and continuations shall be made ratably according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans with respect to which the notice was given held by each Lender.

(e) There may not be more than ten different Term Benchmark Loans in effect hereunder at any time (which number may be increased or adjusted by agreement between the Borrower and the Agent in connection with any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase or the creation of any Extended Revolving Credit Facility).

132

3.3 Maximum Interest Rate. In no event shall any interest rate provided for hereunder exceed the maximum rate legally chargeable under applicable law with respect to loans of the Type provided for hereunder (the “Maximum Rate”). If, in any month, any interest rate, absent such limitation, would have exceeded the Maximum Rate, then the interest rate for that month shall be the Maximum Rate, and, if in future months, that interest rate would otherwise be less than the Maximum Rate, then that interest rate shall remain at the Maximum Rate until such time as the amount of interest paid hereunder equals the amount of interest which would have been paid if the same had not been limited by the Maximum Rate. In the event that, upon payment in full of the Obligations, the total amount of interest paid or accrued under the terms of this Agreement is less than the total amount of interest which would, but for this Section 3.3, have been paid or accrued if the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement had at all times been in effect, then the Borrower shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, pay the Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, an amount equal to the excess of (a) the lesser of (i) the amount of interest which would have been charged if the Maximum Rate had, at all times, been in effect or (ii) the amount of interest which would have accrued had the interest rate otherwise set forth in this Agreement, at all times, been in effect over (b) the amount of interest actually paid or accrued under this Agreement. If a court of competent jurisdiction determines that the Agent and/or any Lender has received interest and other charges hereunder in excess of the Maximum Rate, such excess shall be deemed received on account of, and shall automatically be applied to reduce, the Obligations other than interest, and if there are no Obligations outstanding, the Agent and/or such Lender shall refund to the Borrower such excess.

3.4 Closing Fees and Other Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay the Agent, the Lenders, the Collateral Agent and each of the Arrangers, as applicable, all fees due and payable on any date required for payment of a fee as provided under the Fee Letters and/or this Agreement and Borrower hereby expressly agrees to be jointly and severally liable for the payment of all such fees under the Fee Letters as though it were the “Borrower” thereunder.

3.5 Unused Line Fee. On the first Business Day of each calendar quarter (commencing with the first business day of the calendar quarter beginning July 1, 2022), and on the Termination Date, the Borrower agrees to pay to the Agent, for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an unused line fee (the “Unused Line Fee”) equal to the Applicable Unused Line Fee Margin per annum times the amount by which the average daily Maximum Revolver Amount exceeded the sum of the average daily outstanding amount of Revolving Loans (other than Swingline Loans) and the average daily undrawn face amount of outstanding Letters of Credit, during the immediately preceding calendar quarter (or longer period if calculated for the first such payment after the Closing Date or shorter period if calculated on the Termination Date). All principal payments received by the Agent shall be deemed to be credited immediately upon receipt for purposes of calculating the Unused Line Fee pursuant to this Section 3.5. Upon receipt thereof, the Agent shall distribute the Unused Line Fee to the Revolving Credit Lenders ratably based on their Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Credit Commitments.

3.6 Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay (i) to the Agent, for the account of the Revolving Credit Lenders, in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, for each Letter of Credit, a fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) equal to, on a per annum basis, the Applicable Margin for Term Benchmark Loans (or RFR Loans to the extent the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is then the appliable Benchmark) multiplied by the undrawn face amount of each Letter of Credit, (ii) to each Letter of Credit Issuer, for its own account, a fronting fee of one-eighth of one percent (0.125%) per annum of the undrawn face amount of each Letter of Credit issued by such Letter of Credit Issuer, and (iii) to each Letter of Credit Issuer, any customary costs, fees and expenses

133

incurred by such Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with the application for, processing of, issuance of, or amendment to any Letter of Credit. The Letter of Credit Fee and fronting fee shall be payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter in which a Letter of Credit is outstanding and on the Termination Date; provided that the first such payment after the Closing Date shall be paid on July 1, 2022.

ARTICLE IV

PAYMENTS AND PREPAYMENTS

4.1 Payments and Prepayments.

(a) The Borrower shall repay the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Loans, plus all accrued but unpaid interest thereon, on the Termination Date.

(b) The Borrower may, upon notice to the Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 5.4); provided that (i) such notice must be received by the Agent not later than (A) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) three (3) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Term Benchmark Loans, (B) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) one (1) Business Day prior to any date of prepayment of Base Rate Loans and (C) 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) five (5) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of RFR Loans; provided, further, that, in respect of Swingline Loans, the Borrower may deliver such notice to the Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date of prepayment of such Swingline Loans and (ii) each prepayment shall be in a principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Type(s) of Loans to be prepaid and, if Term Benchmark Loans are to be prepaid, the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s ratable portion of such prepayment (based on such Lender’s Pro Rata Share).

4.2 Out-of-Formula Condition. The Borrower shall immediately pay to the Agent, for the account of the Lenders and/or to cash collateralize Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.3(g), upon demand, the amount, if any, by which the amount of the Aggregate Revolver Outstandings exceeds at any time the lesser of (i) the Maximum Revolver Amount and (ii) the then-current Borrowing Base (any such condition being an “Out-of-Formula Condition”), except that no such payment shall be required if the Out-of-Formula Condition is created solely as a result of an Agent Advance.

4.3 Mandatory Prepayments.

(a) (i) At all times after the occurrence and during the continuance of a Cash Dominion Period and notification thereof by the Agent to the Borrower, on each Business Day, the Agent shall apply all same day funds credited to the Concentration Account and all amounts received pursuant to this Section 4.3(a) to one or more accounts maintained by the Agent or such other account as directed by the Agent and subject to the terms of any Intercreditor Agreement then in effect, all amounts received in such account shall be applied by Agent in accordance with Section 4.3(a)(iii) below.

134

(ii) Upon the consummation of the IPO Transaction and the receipt of the Net Equity Proceeds received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in connection therewith, the Borrower shall, in accordance with Section 4.3(a)(iii) below, apply against the Loans 50% of all “Declined Proceeds” (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date) from the IPO Transaction after an offer of prepayment is made to all Term Lenders under the Term Loan Credit Agreement with respect to the applicable “Net Cash Proceeds” (as defined in the Term Loan Credit Agreement as in effect on the Closing Date) and a second offer is made to all Term Lenders (who accepted prepayment with respect to the first offer) with respect to any Declined Proceeds from the first such offer within three (3) Business Days after the Borrower receives notice from the Term Loan Agent of any such Declined Proceeds remaining after the second offer.

(iii) Except as otherwise provided in Section 10.3, all amounts required to be paid pursuant to Section 4.3(a)(i) and Section 4.3(a)(ii) above shall be applied by the Agent as follows: (A) first, to the prepayment in full of Agent Advances, (B) second, to the prepayment in full of the Swingline Loans, (C) third, to cash collateralize Letters of Credit, (D) fourth, to the prepayment in full of the Revolving Base Rate Loans and (E) fifth, to the prepayment in full of the Revolving Term Benchmark Loans (or Revolving RFR Loans to the extent then applicable).

(b) No payment or prepayment made pursuant to this Section 4.3 shall, or shall be deemed to, effect or reduce any Commitment of any Lender or the aggregate Commitments of the Lenders.

4.4 Termination or Reductions of Facilities.

(a) The Borrower may terminate this Agreement, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Agent (who will distribute such notice to the Lenders), upon Full Payment of the Obligations and payment of amounts (if any) due under Section 5.4. Such notice may provide that such termination is contingent upon consummation of a contemplated refinancing or another transaction.

(b) The Borrower may from time to time permanently reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments (and the Maximum Revolver Amount), as the case may be, on a pro rata basis based on the applicable Lenders’ respective Pro Rata Shares, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to the Agent, which notice shall specify the amount of the reduction. Each reduction shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or an increment of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. If after giving effect to any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Letter of Credit Subfacility or the Swingline Sublimit shall exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments at such time, each such Subfacility or sublimit, as the case may be, shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess and such reduction shall be accompanied by such payment (if any) as may be required to

��

135

be made such that after giving effect to such payment the relevant aggregate Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans do not exceed the applicable Subfacility or sublimit as so reduced. Each reduction in the Revolving Credit Commitments shall be accompanied by such payment (if any) as may be required to avoid an Out-of-Formula Condition. It being understood and agreed that the Borrower may allocate any termination or reduction of Commitments among Classes of Commitments at its direction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower may rescind or postpone any notice of termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all of the applicable Commitments, which refinancing shall not be consummated or otherwise shall be delayed.

4.5 Term Benchmark Loan Prepayments. In connection with any prepayment, if any Term Benchmark Loans are prepaid prior to the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the Borrower shall comply with Section 5.4.

4.6 Payments by the Borrower.

(a) All payments to be made by the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents shall be made without set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower shall be made to the Agent for the account of the Lenders entitled thereto, at the account designated by the Agent and shall be made in Dollars and in immediately available funds, no later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the date specified herein. Any payment received by the Agent after such time shall be deemed (for purposes of calculating interest only) to have been received on the following Business Day and any applicable interest shall continue to accrue.

(b) Subject to the provisions set forth in the definition of “Interest Period,” whenever any payment is due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be due on the following Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be.

4.7 Apportionment, Application and Reversal of Payments. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, principal and interest payments shall be apportioned ratably among the Lenders to which such payment is owed (according to the unpaid principal balance of the Loans to which such payments owed are held by each such Lender) and payments of the fees shall, as applicable, be apportioned ratably (or other applicable share as provided herein) among the Lenders to which such payment is owed, except for fees payable solely to the Agent, any Arranger or the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer. Whenever any payment received by the Agent under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents is insufficient to pay in full all amounts due and payable to the Agent and the Lenders under or in respect of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents on any date, such payment shall be distributed by the Agent and applied by the Agent and the Lenders in the order of priority set forth in Section 10.3. If the Agent receives funds for application to the Obligations of the Obligors under or in respect of the Loan Documents under circumstances for which the Loan Documents do not specify the manner in which such funds are to be applied, the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, elect to distribute such funds to each of the Lenders in accordance with such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolver

136

Outstandings at such time, in repayment or prepayment of such of the outstanding Loans or other Obligations then owing to such Lender. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower, or unless an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, neither the Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payments which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Term Benchmark Loan or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding Base Rate Loans and, in such event, the Borrower shall pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 5.4.

4.8 Indemnity for Returned Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, the Agent, any Lender, or any other Secured Party is for any reason compelled to surrender such payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason, then such Obligations or part thereof intended to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by the Agent, such Lender, or such other Secured Party, and the Borrower shall be liable to pay to the Agent, the Lenders, or such other Secured Party and hereby do indemnify the Agent, the Lenders, or such other Secured Party and hold the Agent, the Lenders, or such other Secured Party harmless for the amount of such payment or proceeds surrendered. The provisions of this Section 4.8 shall be and remain effective notwithstanding any release of Collateral or guarantors, cancellation or return of Loan Documents, or other contrary action which may have been taken by the Agent, any Lender, or such other Secured Party in reliance upon such payment or application of proceeds, and any such contrary action so taken shall be without prejudice to the Agent’s, the Lenders’, or such other Secured Party’s rights under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall be deemed to have been conditioned upon such payment or application of proceeds having become final and irrevocable. The provisions of this Section 4.8 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

4.9 Agent’s and Lenders’ Books and Records. The Agent shall record the principal amount of the Loans owing to each Lender, the undrawn face amount of all applicable outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of Unpaid Drawings obligations outstanding with respect to the Letters of Credit from time to time on its books. In addition, each Lender may note the date and amount of each payment or prepayment of principal of such Lender’s Loans in its books and records. Failure by the Agent or any Lender to make such notation shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower with respect to the Loans or the Letters of Credit. The Borrower agrees that the Agent’s and each Lender’s books and records showing the Obligations and the transactions pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be admissible in any action or proceeding arising therefrom, and shall constitute rebuttable presumptive proof thereof (absent manifest error), irrespective of whether any Obligation is also evidenced by a promissory note or other instrument. Such statement shall be deemed correct, accurate, and binding on the Borrower and an account stated (absent manifest error and except for reversals and reapplications of payments made as provided in Section 4.7 and corrections of errors discovered by the Agent), unless the Borrower notifies the Agent in writing to the contrary within 30 days after such statement is rendered. In the event a timely written notice of objections is given by the Borrower, only the items to which exception is expressly made will be considered to be disputed by the Borrower.

137

ARTICLE V

TAXES, YIELD PROTECTION AND ILLEGALITY

5.1 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Unless otherwise required by applicable Law, all payments by or on behalf of an Obligor to a Lender or the Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for, any Taxes. If any applicable Withholding Agent shall be required by any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of such Withholding Agent) to deduct or withhold any Tax from any payment to a Recipient under this Agreement or any Loan Document, then (i) such Withholding Agent shall make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and (ii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Obligor shall be increased as necessary so that after all such required deductions and withholdings are made (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 5.1) the applicable Lender (or, in the case of a payment made to the Agent for its own account, the Agent) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, all Other Taxes when due.

(b) Indemnification by Obligors. The Obligors agree jointly and severally to indemnify and hold harmless each Lender and the Agent for the full amount of Indemnified Taxes (including any Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.1) paid or payable by any Lender or the Agent or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to the Lender or the Agent and any reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. Payment under this indemnification shall be made within 30 days after the date such Lender or the Agent makes written demand therefor in accordance with Section 5.6. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Agent), or by the Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after the date of any payment by an Obligor of Taxes to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 5.1, the relevant Obligor shall furnish the Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof, or other evidence of payment reasonably satisfactory to the Agent.

138

(d) Status of Lenders. Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to any payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in paragraphs (d)(i), (ii) and (iv) of this Section) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. Each Lender agrees that if any documentation it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such documentation or promptly notify the Borrower and the Agent in writing of its legal ineligibility to do so. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

(i) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(ii) any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall, to the extent it is legally eligible to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Agent on or prior to the date on which such non-U.S. Person becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(A) In the case of a Lender claiming the benefits of an income Tax treaty to which the United States in a Party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

to the effect that such non-U.S. Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10-percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E; or

(D) to the extent a Lender is not the beneficial owner, two duly executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W- 8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-2 or Exhibit J-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that if such Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit J-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(iii) any Lender that is not a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable Law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable Law to permit the applicable Withholding Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(iv) if any payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent at the time or times prescribed by Law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA, to determine whether such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA and to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.1(d), a Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 5.1(d) that it is not legally eligible to deliver. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to deliver to the Obligors and to any successor Agent any documentation provided by such Lender to the Agent pursuant to this Section 5.1(d).

140

(e) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its reasonable discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.1 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.1), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 5.1 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable and documented or invoiced out- of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this Section 5.1(e) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 5.1(e), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this Section 5.1(e) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party 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 giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section 5.1(e) shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(f) The Agent shall provide the Borrower with two duly completed original copies of, if it is a U.S. Person, IRS Form W-9 certifying that it is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding, and, if it is not a U.S. Person, (1) IRS Form W-8ECI with respect to payments to be received by it as a beneficial owner and (2) IRS Form W-8IMY (together with required accompanying documentation) with respect to payments to be received by it on behalf of the Lenders, certifying that, for such purpose, it is a U.S. branch that has agreed to be treated as a U.S. person for U.S. federal tax purposes. Notwithstanding any other provision of this clause (f), the Agent shall not be required to deliver any documentation that such Agent is not legally eligible to deliver as a result of a Change in Law after the Agreement Date.

(g) Definitions. For purposes of this Section 5.1, the term “Lender” includes any Letter of Credit Issuer and the Swingline Lender.

5.2 Illegality.

(a) If as a result of any Change in Law occurring after the later of the Agreement Date or the date that a Lender became a party to this Agreement, has made it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority has asserted after such date that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable lending office to make Term Benchmark Loans, then, on notice thereof by that Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, any obligation of that Lender to make Term Benchmark Loans shall be suspended (and, if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) in the definition of “Base Rate”) until that Lender notifies the Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist.

141

(b) If a Lender determines that, as a result of a Change in Law occurring after the later of the Agreement Date and the date such Lender became a party hereto, it is unlawful to maintain any Term Benchmark Loan, the Borrower shall, upon its receipt of notice of such fact and demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Agent), prepay in full such Term Benchmark Loans of that Lender then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon and amounts required under Section 5.4, either on the last day of the Interest Period, if that Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Term Benchmark Loans to such day, or immediately, if that Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Term Benchmark Loans. If the Borrower is required to so prepay any Term Benchmark Loans, then concurrently with such prepayment, the Borrower shall borrow from the affected Lender, in the amount of such repayment, a Base Rate Loan.

5.3 Increased Costs and Reduction of Return.

(a) If any Lender determines that due to any Change in Law occurring after the later of the Agreement Date or the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement, there shall be any increase in the cost (including Taxes) to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding, continuing, converting to or maintaining any Term Benchmark Loans (other than any increase in cost resulting from (i) Indemnified Taxes, (ii) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes”, or (iii) Connection Income Taxes), then, subject to clause (c) of this Section 5.3, the Borrower shall be liable for, and shall from time to time, upon demand (with a copy of such demand to be sent to the Agent), pay to the Agent for the account of such Lender, additional amounts as are sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased costs.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that due to any Change in Law in respect of any Capital Adequacy Regulation occurring after the later of the Agreement Date or the date such Lender became a party to this Agreement that affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation or other entity controlling such Lender and such Lender (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s or other entity’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and such Lender’s desired return on capital) determines that the amount of such capital or liquidity is required to be increased as a consequence of its Commitments, loans, credits or obligations under this Agreement, then, upon demand of such Lender to the Borrower through the Agent, subject to clause (c) of this Section 5.3, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increase.

(c) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation, provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 5.3 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the event giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the six-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect

142

thereof). Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no Lender shall demand compensation pursuant to this Section 5.3 if it shall not at the time be the general policy or practice of such Lender to demand such compensation in similar circumstances for similarly situated borrowers under comparable provisions of other credit agreements, if any.

5.4 Funding Losses. The Borrower shall reimburse each Lender and hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of:

(a) the failure of the Borrower to borrow a Term Benchmark Loan and/or an RFR Loan after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Borrowing;

(b) the failure of the Borrower to continue a Term Benchmark Loan or convert a Loan into a Term Benchmark Loan after the Borrower has given (or is deemed to have given) a Notice of Continuation/Conversion; or

(c) the prepayment or other payment (including after acceleration thereof) of any Term Benchmark Loans on a day that is not the last day of the relevant Interest Period or of any RFR Loan on a day that is not a SOFR Interest Payment Date (in each case, including, without limitation, any payment in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.6(f)(ii), Section 5.8 or Section 12.1(b)),

including, without limitation, any loss or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds obtained by it to maintain its Term Benchmark Loans (but not in respect of lost profits) or from fees payable to terminate the deposits from which such funds were obtained.

5.5 Inability to Determine Rates.

(a) Alternate Rate of Interest. Subject to clauses (b), and (c), below, if (i) the Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) (A) prior to commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR or Term SOFR (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR; or (ii) the Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or Loan) included in such Borrowing;

then the Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as provided in Section 14.8 as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Notice of

143

Continuation/Conversion in accordance with the terms of Section 3.2 or a new Notice of Borrowing in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4, any Notice of Continuation/Conversion that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Notice of Borrowing that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Notice of Continuation/Conversion or a Notice of Borrowing, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 5.5(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) a Base Rate Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 5.5(a)(i) or (ii) above and any Notice of Borrowing that requests an RFR Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for a Base Rate Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Agent referred to in this Section 5.5(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new Notice of Continuation/Conversion in accordance with the terms of Section 3.2 or a new Notice of Borrowing in accordance with the terms of Section 2.4, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 5.5(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) a Base Rate Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 5.5(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute a Base Rate Loan. Upon any such conversion pursuant to this clause (a), the Borrower shall also pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 5.4.

(b) [reserved]

(c) Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(i) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (A) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (B) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or

144

after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

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

(iii) Notices: Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (B) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (C) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (D) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 5.5(c)(iv) below and (E) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 5.5(c), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5.5(c).

(iv) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if the then- current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate), and either (x) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Agent in its reasonable discretion or (y) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (x) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (y) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

145

(v) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted (A) any such request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) a Base Rate Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) any such request for an RFR Borrowing into a request for a Base Rate Borrowing. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 5.5(c), (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Loan so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (y) a Base Rate Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day and (2) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Agent to, and shall constitute a Base Rate Loan.

5.6 Certificates of Agent. If the Agent or any Lender claims reimbursement or compensation under this Article V, the Agent or the affected Lender shall determine the amount thereof and shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Agent) a certificate setting forth in reasonable detail the amount payable to the Agent or the affected Lender, and such certificate shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower in the absence of manifest error; provided that, except for compensation under Section 5.1, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay the Agent or such Lender any compensation attributable to any period prior to the date that is one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date on which the Agent or such Lender first gave notice to the Borrower of the circumstances entitling such Lender to compensation. The Borrower shall pay the Agent or such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within 10 Business Days after receipt thereof.

5.7 Survival. The agreements and obligations of the Borrower and each Recipient in this Article V shall survive the assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations and termination of this Agreement.

146

5.8 Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances. In the event (a) any Lender requests compensation pursuant to Section 5.3, (b) any Lender delivers a notice described in Section 5.2, (c) Holdings or any Obligor is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender pursuant to Section 5.1, (d) [reserved] or (e) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing fee referred to in Section 12.2(a)), upon notice to such Lender and the Agent, require such Lender to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 12.2), all of its interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such assignment shall not conflict with any Law or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (ii) except in the case of clause (d) or (e) above, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, (iii) the Borrower or such assignee shall have paid to such Lender in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of 100% of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on the outstanding Loans of such Lender, plus all fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender hereunder (including any amounts under Sections 5.1, 5.2, 5.3 and 5.4), (iv) such assignment is consummated within 180 days after the date on which the Borrower’s right under this Section 5.8 arises, in the case of any such assignment resulting from payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.1, such assignment will result in a reduction in such payments thereafter and (v) if the consent of the Agent, any Letter of Credit Issuer or the Swingline Lender is required pursuant to Section 12.2, such consents are obtained; provided, further, that if prior to any such assignment the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s request or notice under Section 5.2 or 5.3 or demand for additional amounts under Section 5.1, as the case may be, shall cease to exist or become inapplicable for any reason, or if such Lender shall waive its rights in respect of such circumstances or event under Section 5.1, 5.2 or 5.3, as the case may be, then such Lender shall not thereafter be required to make such assignment hereunder. In the event that a replaced Lender does not execute an Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Section 12.2 within two Business Days after receipt by such replaced Lender of notice of replacement pursuant to this Section 5.8 and presentation to such replaced Lender of an Assignment and Acceptance evidencing an assignment pursuant to this Section 5.8, the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated), upon receipt by the replaced Lender of all amounts required to be paid under this Section 5.8, to execute such an Assignment and Acceptance on behalf of such replaced Lender, and any such Assignment and Acceptance so executed by the Borrower, the replacement Lender and, to the extent required pursuant to Section 12.2, the Agent, shall be effective for purposes of this Section 5.8 and Section 12.2.

(a) If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Agent may, in its discretion, and shall, at the direction of the Required Lenders, do one or more of the following at any time or times and in any order, without notice to or demand on the Borrower:

(i) reduce the Maximum Revolver Amount or the advance rates against Eligible Accounts used in computing the Borrowing Base, or reduce one or more of the other elements used in computing the Borrowing Base, in each case to the extent determined by the Agent or the Required Lenders, as the case may be;

If any amount remains on deposit as cash collateral after all Letters of Credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied to the other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above and, if no Obligations remain outstanding, to the Borrower or as otherwise required by Law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no amounts received from any Guarantor shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligations of such Guarantor.

It is understood that a waiver of any condition precedent or the waiver of any Default, Event of Default or mandatory prepayment or commitment reduction under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall not give rise to an all affected Lender vote pursuant to this clause (iv).

(v) Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such waiver, amendment, or consent shall be effective to increase the obligations or adversely affect the rights of the Agent, the Collateral Agent, the Swingline Lender, any Letter of Credit Issuer or any Arranger without the consent of the party adversely affected thereby;

provided, however, that (A) the Agent may, in its sole discretion and notwithstanding the limitations contained in clause (ii) or (iii)(A) above and any other terms of this Agreement, make applicable Agent Advances in accordance with Section 2.4(g); (B) Schedule 1.1 hereto (Lenders’ Commitments) may be amended from time to time by the Agent alone to reflect assignments of

206

Commitments in accordance herewith and changes in Commitments in accordance with Section 2.6 or 2.7; (C) no amendment or waiver shall be made to Section 13.19 or to any other provision of any Loan Document as such provisions relate to the rights and obligations of any Arranger without the written consent of such Arranger and (D) each Fee Letter may be amended or waived in a writing signed by the Borrower and JPMorgan. Further, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 12.1, if the Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature, in each case, in any provision of the Loan Documents, then the Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice thereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the L/C Commitment of any Letter of Credit Issuer listed on Schedule 1.1 hereto may be modified with the consent of the Borrower, such Letter of Credit Issuer and the Agent (and without the consent of any Lender).

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that (i) the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended and (ii) the accrued and unpaid amount of any principal, interest or fees payable to such Lender shall not be reduced, in either case, without the consent of such Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no consent of any Lender or any other Person will be required to effectuate any transaction permitted under Section 2.6 or 2.7 except to the extent provided therein.

(b) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent (a “Proposed Change”) requiring the consent of the Supermajority Lenders, all Lenders or all affected Lenders, the consent of Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, at the Borrower’s request (and if applicable, payment by the Borrower of the processing fee referred to in Section 12.2(a)), the Agent (so long as the Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender) or an Eligible Assignee shall have the right (but not the obligation), to purchase from the Non-Consenting Lenders, and the Non- Consenting Lenders agree that they shall sell, all of the Non-Consenting Lenders’ interests, rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, in accordance with the procedures set forth in clauses (i) through (v) in the proviso to Section 5.8 and the last sentence in Section 5.8, as if each such Non-Consenting Lender is an assignor Lender thereunder.

(c) No Real Estate shall be taken as Collateral unless Lenders receive 45 days’ advance notice and each Lender confirms to Agent that it has completed all flood due diligence, received copies of all flood insurance documentation and confirmed flood insurance compliance as required by the Flood Insurance Laws or as otherwise satisfactory to such Lender. At any time that any Real Estate constitutes Collateral, no modification of a Loan Document shall add, increase, renew or extend any loan, commitment or credit line hereunder until the completion of flood due diligence, documentation and coverage as required by the Flood Insurance Laws or as otherwise satisfactory to all Lenders. This Section 12.1 shall not be construed to obligate the Obligors to deliver any Real Estate as Collateral hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents.

207

12.2 Assignments; Participations.

(a) Any Lender may, with the written consent of (i) the Agent, (ii) the Swingline Lender and the Letter of Credit Issuers, and (iii) so long as no Event of Default under any of Section 10.1(a), (e), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower (in each case, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), assign and delegate to one or more Eligible Assignees (provided that (x) no such Borrower consent shall be required in connection with any assignment to an existing Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, or an Approved Fund of a Lender and (y) such Borrower consent shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within ten (10) Business Days of receipt of a written request for consent (each an “Assignee”) all, or any ratable part of all, of the Loans, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of such Lender hereunder, in a minimum amount of $5,000,000, or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (provided that an amount less than the minimum amount of $5,000,000 may be assigned if agreed to by the Borrower and the Agent, or if such amount represents all of the Loans, the Commitments and the other rights and obligations of the Lender hereunder) (provided, further that no such minimum amount shall apply to any assignment to an Approved Fund or to a Lender or to an Affiliate of a Lender); provided, however, that (A) written notice of such assignment, together with payment instructions, addresses and related information with respect to the Assignee, shall be given to the Borrower and the Agent by such Lender and the Assignee; (B) such Lender and its Assignee shall deliver to the Borrower and the Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, along with an Administrative Questionnaire and any know-your-customer documentation; and (C) the assignor Lender or Assignee shall pay to the Agent a processing fee in the amount of $3,500; provided, further, that the Agent may elect to waive such processing fee in its sole discretion.

(b) From and after the date that the Agent has received an executed Assignment and Acceptance, the Agent has received payment of the above-referenced processing fee and the Agent has recorded such assignment in the Register as provided in Section 13.20 herein, (i) the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent that rights and obligations, including, but not limited to, the obligation to participate in Letters of Credit, have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, shall have the rights and obligations of a Lender under the Loan Documents, and (ii) the assignor Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assignor Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such assignor Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(c) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the assignor Lender thereunder and the Assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, such assignor Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no

208

responsibility with respect to any statements, warranties or representations made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto or the attachment, perfection, or priority of any Lien granted by any Obligor to the Agent or any Lender in the applicable Collateral; (ii) such assignor Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Obligor or the performance or observance by any Obligor of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (iii) such Assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement, together with such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such Assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, such assignor Lender or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement; (v) such Assignee appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement as are delegated to the Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers, including the discretionary rights and incidental powers, as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (vi) such Assignee agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(d) Immediately upon satisfaction of the requirements of Section 12.2(a) and recordation in the Register, this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to the extent, but only to the extent, necessary to reflect the addition of the Assignee and the resulting adjustment of the Commitments arising therefrom. Each Commitment allocated to each Assignee shall reduce the applicable Commitment of the assignor Lender pro tanto.

(e) Any Lender may at any time sell to one or more commercial banks, financial institutions, or other Persons not Affiliates of the Borrower (a “Participant”), in each case that is not a Disqualified Lender so long as the list of Disqualified Lenders shall have been made available to all Lenders, participating interests in any Loans, any Commitment of that Lender and the other interests of that Lender (the “Originating Lender”) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided, however, that (i) the Originating Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) the Originating Lender shall remain solely responsible for the performance of such obligations, (iii) the Borrower and the Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with the Originating Lender in connection with the Originating Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and (iv) no Lender shall transfer or grant any participating interest under which the Participant has rights to approve any amendment to, or any consent or waiver with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document except the matters set forth in Sections 12.1(a)(iii)(C) and (D) and Section 12.1(a)(iv), and all amounts payable by the Borrower hereunder shall be determined as if such Lender had not sold such participation; except that, if amounts outstanding under this Agreement are due and unpaid, or shall have become due and payable upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, each Participant shall be deemed to have the right of set-off in respect of its participating interest in amounts owing under this Agreement to the same extent and subject to the same

209

limitation as if the amount of its participating interest were owing directly to it as a Lender under this Agreement. Subject to paragraph (g) of this Section 12.2, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.1, 5.2 and 5.3, subject to the requirements and limitations of such Sections (including Sections 5.1(d)) and Sections 5.6 and 5.8, to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section 12.2 (provided that any documentation required to be provided pursuant to Section 5.1(d) shall be provided solely to the Originating Lender and provided further, for the avoidance of doubt, that if the Originating Lender is not a U.S. Person, such Lender shall include a copy of such documentation as an exhibit to its IRS Form W-8IMY in accordance with Section 5.1(d)(ii)(D)).

(f) Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under and interest in this Agreement (including its Note, if any) in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank or any other central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender in accordance with Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 CFR §203.14, and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

(g) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.1 or 5.3 than the Originating Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participating interest sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participating interest to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent and such Participant agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 5.8 as though it were a Lender, or to the extent that such entitlement to a greater payment results from a Change in Law after the Participant became a Participant.

ARTICLE XIII

THE APPOINTED AGENTS

13.1 Appointment and Authorization. Each Lender, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are Secured Parties, and each Letter of Credit Issuer hereby designates and appoints the Agent and the Collateral Agent (collectively, the “Appointed Agents”) as its agents under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and each Lender and each Letter of Credit Issuer hereby irrevocably authorizes each Appointed Agent, in its respective capacity, to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and each other Loan Document and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to it by the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Each Appointed Agent agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Article XIII. The provisions of this Article XIII (other than Sections 13.9, 13.10(a) and 13.10(b)) are solely for the benefit of the Appointed Agents and the Secured Parties, and the Borrower shall have no rights as third party beneficiaries of any of the provisions contained herein. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, each Appointed Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those expressly set forth herein, nor shall any Appointed Agent have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with

210

any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist against any Appointed Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to any Appointed Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between independent contracting parties. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Agreement (including any required consent or direction from the Required Lenders), each Appointed Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any actions which such Appointed Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, including (a) the determination of the applicability of ineligibility criteria with respect to the calculation of the Borrowing Base, (b) the making of Agent Advances pursuant to Section 2.4(g) and (c) the exercise of remedies pursuant to Section 10.2, and any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Lenders.

13.2 Delegation of Duties. Each Appointed Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents, employees or attorneys-in-fact and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Each Appointed Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agent or attorney in fact that it selects as long as such selection was made without gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

13.3 Liability of Appointed Agents. None of the Agent-Related Persons shall (a) be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them under or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions contemplated hereby (except for its own gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision)), (b) be responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recital, statement, representation or warranty made by any Obligor or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of any Obligor, or any officer thereof, contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any Appointed Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or the perfection or priority of any Lien or security interest created or purported to be created under the Collateral Documents, or for any failure of any Obligor or any other party to any Loan Document to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder or (c) be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders; further, without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), no Agent- Related Person shall (x) be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified Lender or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information (subject in all respects to Section 14.16), to any Disqualified Lender. No Agent-Related Person shall be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Obligor or any of their Subsidiaries or Affiliates.

211

13.4 Reliance by Appointed Agent. Each Appointed Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telegram, facsimile, telex or telephone message, statement or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to any Obligor), independent accountants and other experts selected by such Appointed Agent. Each Appointed Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders as it deems appropriate and, if it so requests, it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense which may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Appointed Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in accordance with a request or consent of the Required Lenders (or the Supermajority Lenders, all Lenders or all affected Lenders if so required by Section 12.1) and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all of the Lenders.

13.5 Notice of Default. The Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Agent shall have received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” The Agent will notify the Lenders of its receipt of any such notice. The Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as may be requested by the Required Lenders in accordance with Article X; provided, however, that unless and until the Agent has received any such request, the Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable.

13.6 Credit Decision. Each Lender acknowledges that none of the Agent-Related Persons has made any representation or warranty to it, and that no act by any Appointed Agent hereinafter taken, including any review of the affairs of the Borrower and its Affiliates, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent-Related Person to any Lender. Each Lender represents to each Appointed Agent that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Obligors and their Affiliates, and all applicable bank regulatory laws relating to the transactions contemplated hereby, and made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and to extend credit to the Borrower. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent-Related Person and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Obligors and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly herein required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agent, the Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Obligors or any of their Affiliates which may come into the possession of any of the Agent-Related Persons.

212

13.7 Indemnification. Whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby are consummated, the Lenders shall indemnify upon demand the Agent-Related Persons (to the extent not reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, from and against any and all Losses as such term is defined in Section 14.10; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment to such Agent-Related Persons of any portion of such Losses to the extent resulting from such Person’s gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision); provided, further, that any action taken by any Agent-Related Person at the request of the Required Lenders (or all Lenders or all affected Lenders, as applicable) shall not constitute gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender shall ratably reimburse the Agent upon demand for its share of any costs or out-of-pocket expenses (including Attorney Costs) incurred by the Agent in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, or any document contemplated by or referred to herein, to the extent that the Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by or on behalf of the Borrower. The undertaking in this Section 13.7 shall survive the payment of all Obligations hereunder and the resignation or replacement of the Agent.

13.8 Appointed Agents in Individual Capacity. Each Appointed Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire Stock in and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the Obligors and their Subsidiaries and Affiliates as though such Appointed Agent was not an Appointed Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Lenders. Each Appointed Agent and its Affiliates may receive information regarding the Obligors, their Affiliates and Account Debtors (including information that may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Obligors or such Affiliates) and the Lenders hereby acknowledge that each Appointed Agent shall be under no obligation to provide such information to them. With respect to its Loans, each Appointed Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Appointed Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” include each Appointed Agent in its individual capacity.

13.9 Successor Agents. Each Appointed Agent may resign as an Appointed Agent upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the Lenders and the Borrower. In the event any Appointed Agent sells all of its Loans and/or Commitments as part of a sale, transfer or other disposition by such Appointed Agent of substantially all of its loan portfolio, such Appointed Agent shall resign as an Appointed Agent and such purchaser or transferee shall become the successor Appointed Agent hereunder. In the event that an Appointed Agent becomes a Defaulting Lender, such Appointed Agent may be removed at the reasonable request of the Borrower and the Required Lenders. Subject to the foregoing, if an Appointed Agent resigns or is removed under this Agreement, the Required Lenders (with the prior consent of the Borrower, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld and such consent not to be required if an Event of Default under any of Section 10.1(a), (e), (f) or (g) has occurred and is continuing) shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor

213

agent, which successor agent shall be a Lender or a commercial bank, commercial finance company or other asset based lender having total assets in excess of $5,000,000,000. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of any Appointed Agent, such Appointed Agent may appoint (but without the need for the consent of the Borrower) a successor agent from among the Lenders. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Appointed Agent and the term “Appointed Agent” shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Appointed Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as an Appointed Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Appointed Agent’s resignation hereunder as an Appointed Agent, the provisions of this Article XIII and Section 14.10 shall continue to inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Appointed Agent under this Agreement.

13.10 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders (and each other Secured Party by their acceptance of the benefits of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to) hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent (and if applicable, any subagent appointed by the Collateral Agent under Section 13.2 or otherwise) to release its Liens on the Collateral, and the Collateral Agent’s Liens upon any Collateral shall be automatically released (i) upon Full Payment of the Obligations; (ii) upon a disposition of Collateral permitted by Section 8.8 to a Person that is not an Obligor; (iii) if any such Collateral constitutes property in which the Obligors owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; (iv) if any such Collateral constitutes property leased to an Obligor under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement; (v) to the extent the property constituting such Collateral is owned by any Guarantor, upon the release of such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement (in accordance with the second succeeding sentence and the Guarantee Agreement); (vi) as required by the Collateral Agent to effect any sale, transfer or other Disposition of Collateral in connection with any exercise of remedies of the Collateral Agent pursuant to the Security Documents, (vii) to the extent such Collateral otherwise becomes an Excluded Stock or an Excluded Asset, and (viii) if the percentage of Lenders required to consent to the Collateral being released hereunder, so consents to the Collateral being released. Except as provided above, the Collateral Agent will not release any of the Collateral Agent’s Liens without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders (or such other percentage of Lenders whose consent is required in accordance with Section 12.1); provided that, in addition to the foregoing, the Collateral Agent may, in its discretion, release such Collateral Agent’s Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $1,000,000 during each Fiscal Year without the prior written authorization of any Lender, so long as all proceeds received in connection with such release are applied to the Obligations in accordance with Section 4.7 and, after giving effect to the application of such proceeds and the updating of the Borrowing Base, as the case may be, to reflect the deletion of any assets subject to such release, Availability shall be no less than the Availability immediately prior to such release. Upon request by the Collateral Agent or the Borrower at any time, subject to the Borrower having certified to the Collateral Agent that the disposition is made in compliance with Section 8.8 (which the Collateral Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), the Lenders will confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release any applicable Collateral Agent’s Liens upon particular types or items

214

of Collateral pursuant to this Section 13.10. In addition, the Lenders (and each other Secured Party by their acceptance of the benefits of the Loan Documents shall be deemed to) hereby irrevocably authorize (w) the Collateral Agent to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Collateral Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 8.12(c) or (q) (as to Fixed Asset Collateral only), (x) the Agent to release automatically any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under this Agreement or such Person otherwise becomes an Excluded Subsidiary, in each case, solely to the extent such Subsidiary ceasing to constitute a Restricted Subsidiary or otherwise becoming an Excluded Subsidiary is not prohibited by this Agreement, (y) so long as both (1) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom and (2) no Out-of-Formula Condition has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, then, to the extent that the Collateral Agent obtains possession of any Collateral by operation of Section 13.12 of this Agreement that constitutes Collateral that Obligors are not required to deliver to Collateral Agent at such time pursuant to the terms hereof, the Security Documents or any other contractual arrangement with any Obligor, following the written request by Borrower, Collateral Agent shall (to the extent not prohibited by applicable law or legal process) deliver such Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor Agreement or, if no Intercreditor Agreement is then in effect, to the applicable Obligor, and (z) if after the date hereof Collateral Agent’s Lien has been expanded to include Fixed Asset Collateral in connection with incurrence of Debt pursuant to Section 8.12(q)(x) or (r) so long as all of the following conditions are satisfied (1) no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, (2) no Out-of-Formula Condition has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom, and (3) no Debt has been incurred in reliance on Section 8.12(q)(x) or (r) that remains outstanding (and no commitments for Debt that, if incurred would be incurred in reliance on Section 8.12(q)(x) or (r), remain outstanding) and no Liens are outstanding in reliance on clause (r) of the definition of Permitted Liens, or, to the extent on account of Refinancing Debt, or outstanding commitments that, if incurred, would be Refinancing Debt, in each case incurred in reliance, directly or indirectly, on Section 8.12(q)(x) or (r)), clause (p) of the definition of “Permitted Liens”, promptly following the written request of the Borrower, the Collateral Agent shall release Collateral Agent’s Liens on Fixed Assets Collateral (other than, in each case any Inventory or Fracturing Equipment Parts (as defined in the Initial Intercreditor Agreement)) at the expense of the Obligors. Upon request by any Appointed Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing such Appointed Agent’s authority to release or subordinate its interest in particular types or items of property, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations pursuant to this Section 13.10(a).

(b) Upon receipt by any Appointed Agent of any authorization required pursuant to Section 13.10(a) from the Lenders of such Appointed Agent’s authority to release or subordinate the applicable Collateral Agent’s Liens upon particular types or items of Collateral, or to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement, and upon at least three (3) Business Days’ prior written request by the Borrower, such Appointed Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders and the other Secured Parties to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of such Collateral Agent’s Liens upon such Collateral or to

215

subordinate its interest therein, or to release such Guarantor from its obligations under the Guarantee Agreement; provided, however, that (i) such Appointed Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in such Appointed Agent’s opinion, would expose such Appointed Agent to liability or create any obligation or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Obligors in respect of) all interests retained by the Obligors, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of such Collateral.

(c) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any of the Lenders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Obligors or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the applicable Collateral Agent’s Liens have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral in its capacity as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability whatsoever to any Lender as to any of the foregoing.

13.11 Restrictions on Actions by Lenders; Sharing of Payments.

(a) Each of the Lenders agrees that it shall not, without the express consent of the Required Lenders, and that it shall, to the extent it is lawfully and contractually entitled to do so, upon the request of the Required Lenders, set off against the Obligations, any amounts owing by such Lender to any Obligor or any accounts of any Obligor now or hereafter maintained with such Lender. Each of the Lenders further agrees that it shall not, unless specifically requested to do so by any Appointed Agent, take or cause to be taken any action to enforce its rights under this Agreement or against any Obligor, including the commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise enforce any security interest in, any of the applicable Collateral.

(b) Except as may be expressly permitted by this Agreement, if at any time or times any Lender shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, setoff or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payments with respect to the Obligations of any Obligor to such Lender arising under, or relating to, this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, except for any such proceeds or payments received by such Lender from the Agent pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or to which such Lender is otherwise entitled to receive directly pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or (ii) payments from the Agent in excess of such Lender’s ratable portion of all such distributions by the Agent, such Lender shall promptly (A) turn the same over to the Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to the Agent, or in same day funds, as applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (B) purchase, without

216

recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in the Obligations owed to the other Lenders so that such excess payment received shall be applied ratably as among the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments; provided, however, that (A) if all or part of such excess payment received by the purchasing party is thereafter recovered from it, those purchases of participations shall be rescinded in whole or in part, as applicable, and the applicable portion of the purchase price paid therefor shall be returned to such purchasing party, but without interest except to the extent that such purchasing party is required to pay interest in connection with the recovery of the excess payment and (B) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower or any other Obligor pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans, Commitments or participations in a Letter of Credit or Swingline Loans to any Assignee or Participant or (z) any disproportionate payment obtained by a Lender of any Class as a result of the extension by Lenders of the maturity date or expiration date of some but not all Loans or Commitments of that Class or any increase in the Applicable Margin (or other pricing term, including any fee, discount or premium) in respect of Loans or Commitments of Lenders that have consented to any such extension to the extent such transaction is permitted hereunder.

13.12 Agency for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as agent for the purpose of perfecting the Lenders’ security interest in assets which, in accordance with the UCC or under other applicable law, as applicable may be perfected by possession. Should any Lender (other than the Collateral Agent) obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Collateral Agent thereof and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor, shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions.

13.13 Payments by Agent to Lenders. All payments to be made by the Agent to the applicable Lenders shall be made by bank wire transfer or internal transfer of immediately available funds to each such Lender pursuant to wire transfer instructions delivered in writing to the Agent on or prior to the Closing Date (or if such Lender is an Assignee, on the applicable Assignment and Acceptance), or pursuant to such other wire transfer instructions as each party may designate for itself by written notice to the Agent. Concurrently with each such payment, the Agent shall identify whether such payment (or any portion thereof) represents principal, interest or fees on the Loans or otherwise. Unless the Agent receives notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that the Borrower have made such payment in full to the Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each such Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower has not made such payment in full to the Agent, each applicable Lender shall repay to the Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

217

13.14 Settlement.

(a) Each Lender’s funded portion of the applicable Loans is intended by the applicable Lenders to be equal at all times to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding applicable Loans. Notwithstanding such agreement, the Agent, the Swingline Lender, and the other applicable Lenders agree (which agreement shall not be for the benefit of or enforceable by the Borrower) that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, settlement among them as to the applicable Loans (including the applicable Swingline Loans and the applicable Agent Advances) shall take place on a periodic basis in accordance with the following provisions:

(i) The Agent shall request settlement (“Settlement”) with the applicable Lenders at least once every week, or on a more frequent basis at the Agent’s election, (A) on behalf of the Swingline Lender, with respect to each applicable outstanding Swingline Loan, (B) for itself, with respect to each applicable Agent Advance, and (C) with respect to collections received, in each case, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by telecopy or other electronic transmission, no later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender, in the case of applicable Swingline Loans and the Agent in the case of applicable Agent Advances) shall transfer the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Swingline Loans and the applicable Agent Advances with respect to each Settlement to the Agent, to the Agent’s account, not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York City time), on the Settlement Date applicable thereto. Settlements shall occur during the continuation of a Default or an Event of Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IX have then been satisfied. Such amounts made available by the applicable Lenders to the Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the applicable Swingline Loan or Agent Advance and, together with the portion of such Swingline Loan or Agent Advance representing the Swingline Lenders’ Pro Rata Share thereof, shall cease to constitute Swingline Loans or Agent Advances, but shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders. If any such amount is not transferred to the Agent by any Lender on the Settlement Date applicable thereto, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate, the first three (3) days from and after the Settlement Date and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, (1) on behalf of the Swingline Lender, with respect to each outstanding Swingline Loan, and (2) for itself, with respect to each applicable Agent Advance.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, not more than one (1) Business Day after demand is made by the Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default and regardless of whether the Agent has requested a Settlement with respect to an applicable Swingline Loan or applicable Agent Advance), each other applicable Lender (A) shall irrevocably and unconditionally purchase and receive from the Swingline Lender or the Agent, as applicable, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such

218

Swingline Loan or Agent Advance equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loan or Agent Advance and (B) if Settlement has not previously occurred with respect to such Swingline Loans or Agent Advances, upon demand by the Agent, as applicable, shall pay to the Swingline Lender or the Agent, as applicable, as the purchase price of such participation an amount equal to one- hundred percent (100%) of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of such Swingline Loans or Agent Advances. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Agent by any applicable Lender, the Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for the first three (3) days from and after such demand and thereafter at the Interest Rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans, (A) on behalf of the Swingline Lender, with respect to each outstanding Swingline Loan, and (B) for itself, with respect to each applicable Agent Advance.

(iii) Notwithstanding any provisions of Section 2.4(f) to the contrary, from and after the date, if any, on which any Lender purchases an undivided interest and participation in any applicable Swingline Loan or applicable Agent Advance pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Agent in respect of such Swingline Loan or Agent Advance.

(iv) Between Settlement Dates, the Agent, to the extent no applicable Agent Advances are outstanding, may pay over to the Swingline Lender any payments received by the Agent, which in accordance with the terms of this Agreement would be applied to the reduction of the applicable Loans, for application to the Swingline Lender’s Loans including applicable Swingline Loans. If, as of any Settlement Date, collections received since the then immediately preceding Settlement Date have been applied to the Swingline Lender’s Loans (other than to applicable Swingline Loans or applicable Agent Advances in which such Lender has not yet funded its purchase of a participation pursuant to clause (ii) above), as provided for in the previous sentence, the Swingline Lender shall pay to the Agent for the accounts of the applicable Lenders, to be applied to the applicable outstanding Loans of such Lenders, an amount such that each Lender shall, upon receipt of such amount, have, as of such Settlement Date, its Pro Rata Share of the applicable Loans. During the period between Settlement Dates, the Swingline Lender with respect to applicable Swingline Loans, the Agent with respect to applicable Agent Advances, and each Lender with respect to the applicable Loans other than applicable Swingline Loans and applicable Agent Advances, shall be entitled to interest at the applicable rate or rates payable under this Agreement on the actual average daily amount of funds employed by the Agent and the other Lenders, respectively.

(v) Unless the Agent has received written notice from the Required Lenders to the contrary, the Agent may assume that the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IX have been satisfied.

219

(b) Lenders’ Failure to Perform. All Loans (other than Swingline Loans and Agent Advances) shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares thereof. It is understood that (i) no Lender shall be responsible for any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any applicable Loans hereunder, nor shall any applicable Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of any failure by any other Lender to perform its obligation to make any Loans hereunder, (ii) no failure by any Lender to perform its obligation to make any Loans hereunder shall excuse any other Lender from its obligation to make any Loans hereunder, and (iii) the obligations of each Lender hereunder shall be several, not joint and several.

(c) Defaulting Lenders. Unless the Agent receives notice from a Lender on or prior to the Closing Date or, with respect to any Borrowing after the Closing Date, at least one Business Day prior to the date of such Borrowing, that such Lender will not make available as and when required hereunder to the Agent that Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Borrowing, the Agent may assume that each such Lender has made such amount available to the Agent in immediately available funds on the Funding Date. Furthermore, the Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If any Lender has not transferred its full Pro Rata Share to the Agent in immediately available funds, and the Agent has transferred the corresponding amount to the Borrower, on the Business Day following such Funding Date such Lender shall make such amount available to the Agent, together with interest at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for that day. A notice by the Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to amounts owing shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If each Lender’s full Pro Rata Share is transferred to the Agent as required, the amount transferred to the Agent shall constitute that Lender’s applicable Loan for all purposes of this Agreement. If that amount is not transferred to the Agent on the Business Day following the Funding Date, the Agent will notify the Borrower of such failure to fund and, upon demand by the Agent, the Borrower shall pay such amount to the Agent for the Agent’s account, together with interest thereon for each day elapsed since the date of such Borrowing, at a rate per annum equal to the Interest Rate applicable at the time to the applicable Loans comprising that particular Borrowing. The failure of any Lender to make any applicable Loan on any Funding Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make an applicable Loan on that Funding Date. No Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to advance such other Lender’s Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing.

13.15 Letters of Credit; Intra-Lender Issues.

(a) Notice of Letter of Credit Balance. On each Settlement Date, the Agent shall notify each Lender of the issuance of all Letters of Credit since the prior Settlement Date. In addition, upon the reasonable request of a Lender from time to time, the Agent shall provide such Lender with a list of the then-outstanding Letters of Credit.

220

(b) Participations in Letters of Credit.

(i) Purchase of Participations. Immediately upon issuance of any Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.3(d), each Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and unconditionally purchased and received without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the face amount of such Letter of Credit in connection with the issuance or acceptance of such Letter of Credit (including all obligations of the Borrower with respect thereto, and any security therefor or guaranty pertaining thereto).

(ii) Sharing of Reimbursement Obligation Payments. Whenever the Agent receives a payment from the Borrower on account of reimbursement obligations in respect of a Letter of Credit as to which the Agent has previously received for the account of the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer thereof payment from a Lender, the Agent shall promptly pay to such Lender such Lender’s applicable Pro Rata Share of such payment from the Borrower. Each such payment shall be made by the Agent on the next Settlement Date.

(iii) Documentation. Upon the request of any applicable Lender, the Agent shall furnish to such Lender copies of any Letter of Credit, reimbursement agreements executed in connection therewith, applications for any Letter of Credit, and such other documentation relating to such Letter of Credit as may reasonably be requested by such Lender.

(iv) Obligations Irrevocable. The obligations of each applicable Lender to make payments to the Agent with respect to any applicable Letter of Credit or with respect to their participation therein or with respect to the Revolving Loans made as a result of a drawing under a Letter of Credit and the obligations of the Borrower for whose account the Letter of Credit was issued to make payments to the Agent, for the account of the applicable Lenders, shall be irrevocable and shall not be subject to any qualification or exception whatsoever, including any of the following circumstances:

(A) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents;

(B) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right which the Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary named in a Letter of Credit or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Person for whom any such transferee may be acting), any Lender, the Agent, the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any applicable Letter of Credit, the transactions contemplated herein or any unrelated transactions (including any underlying transactions between the Borrower or any other Person and the beneficiary named in any Letter of Credit);

(C) any draft, certificate or any other document presented under the Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

221

(D) the surrender or impairment of any security for the performance or observance of any of the terms of any of the Loan Documents;

(E) the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default; or

(F) the failure of the Borrower to satisfy the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Article IX.

(c) Recovery or Avoidance of Payments; Refund of Payments In Error. In the event any payment by or on behalf of the Borrower received by the Agent with respect to any Letter of Credit and distributed by the Agent to the applicable Lenders on account of their respective participations therein is thereafter set aside, avoided or recovered from the Agent or the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer in connection with any receivership, liquidation or bankruptcy proceeding, the Lenders shall, upon demand by the Agent, pay to the Agent their respective applicable Pro Rata Shares of such amount set aside, avoided or recovered, together with interest at the rate required to be paid by the Agent or the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer upon the amount required to be repaid by it. Unless the Agent receives notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the applicable Lenders that the Borrower will not make such payment in full as and when required, the Agent may assume that the Borrower have made such payment in full to the Agent on such date in immediately available funds and the Agent may (but shall not be so required), in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to each applicable Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such applicable Lender. If and to the extent the Borrower have not made such payment in full to the Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Agent on demand such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date repaid.

(d) Indemnification by Lenders. To the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligations of the Borrower hereunder, the Lenders agree to indemnify the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer ratably in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares, for any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including attorneys’ fees) or disbursements of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Letter of Credit Issuer in any way relating to or arising out of any Letter of Credit or the transactions contemplated thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Letter of Credit Issuer under any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document in connection therewith; provided that no Lender shall be liable for any of the foregoing to the extent it arises from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person to be indemnified (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision). Without limitation of the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the applicable Letter of Credit Issuer promptly upon demand for its Pro Rata Share of any costs or expenses payable by the Borrower to such Letter of Credit Issuer, to the extent that such Letter of Credit Issuer is not promptly reimbursed for such costs and expenses by the Borrower. The agreement contained in this Section 13.15(c) and (d) shall survive payment in full of all other Obligations.

222

13.16 Concerning the Collateral and the Related Loan Documents. Each Lender authorizes and directs each Appointed Agent to enter into the other Loan Documents, including any Intercreditor Agreement, for the ratable benefit and obligation of the Appointed Agents and the Lenders. Each Lender agrees that any action taken by any Appointed Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by any Appointed Agent or the Required Lenders, as applicable, of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon all of the Lenders. The Lenders acknowledge that the Loans, applicable Agent Advances, applicable Swingline Loans, Secured Hedge Agreements, Secured Cash Management Agreements, and all interest, fees and expenses hereunder constitute one Debt, secured equally by all of the applicable Collateral, subject to the order of distribution set forth in Section 10.3.

13.17 Field Examination; Disclaimer by Lenders. By signing this Agreement, each Lender:

(a) is deemed to have requested that an Appointed Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each Field Examination (each, a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”) prepared by or on behalf of any Appointed Agent;

(b) expressly agrees and acknowledges that each Appointed Agent (i) makes no representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report;

(c) expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that any Appointed Agent or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the Obligors and will rely significantly upon the Obligors’ books and records, as well as on representations of Obligors’ personnel;

(d) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use, and not to distribute except to its participants, or use any Report in any other manner; and

(e) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold each Appointed Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrower; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold each Appointed Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses and other amounts (including Attorney Costs) incurred by such Appointed Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.

223

13.18 Relation Among Lenders. The Lenders are not partners or co-venturers, and no Lender shall be liable for the acts or omissions of, or (except as otherwise set forth herein in the case of the Appointed Agents) authorized to act for, any other Lender.

13.19 Arrangers. Each of the parties to this Agreement acknowledges that, other than any rights and duties explicitly assigned to the Arrangers under this Agreement, the Arrangers do not have any obligations hereunder and shall not be responsible or accountable to any other party hereto for any action or failure to act hereunder. Without limiting the foregoing, no Arranger shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on the Arrangers in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

13.20 The Register.

(a) The Agent shall maintain a register (each, a “Register”), which shall include a master account and a subsidiary account for each applicable Lender and in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder, the Type of each Loan comprising such Borrowing and any Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the effective date and amount of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and the parties thereto, (iii) the amount of any principal or stated interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder or under the notes payable by the Borrower to such Lender, and (iv) the amount of any sum received by the Agent from the Borrower or any other Obligor and each Lender’s ratable share thereof. Each Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower or any applicable Lender (with respect to its own Loans and Commitments only) at the office of the Agent referred to in Section 14.8 at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior written notice. Any failure of the Agent to record in the applicable Register, or any error in doing so, shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligation of the Borrower hereunder (or under any Loan Document) to pay any amount owing with respect to the Loans or provide the basis for any claim against the Agent. The Loans and Letters of Credit are registered obligations and the right, title and interest of any Lender and their assignees in and to such Loans and Letters of Credit as the case may be, shall be transferable only upon notation of such transfer in the applicable Register. Upon the request of any Lender made through the Agent, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender (through the Agent) a Note payable to such Lender, which shall evidence such Lender’s Loans in addition to such accounts or records. Each Lender may attach schedules to its Note and endorse thereon the date, Type (if applicable), amount and maturity of its Loans and payments with respect thereto. Solely for purposes of this Section 13.20, the Agent shall be the Borrower’s agent for purposes of maintaining the applicable Register (but the Agent shall have no liability whatsoever to the Borrower or any other Person on account of any inaccuracies contained in the applicable Register). The Obligors and the Agent intend that the Loans and Letters of Credit will be treated as at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code and any related regulations (and any other relevant or successor provisions of the Internal Revenue Code or such regulations).

224

(b) In the event that any Lender sells participations in any Loan, Commitment or other interest of such Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document, such Lender, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name of all Participants in the Loans held by it and the principal amount (and related interest thereon) of the portion of the Loans or Commitments which are the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Loan or Commitment may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Loans or Commitments may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. No Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 45.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(c) Each Register shall be maintained by the Agent as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower. Each Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

13.21 Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in the Guarantee Agreement or any Security Document, no Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank that obtains the benefits of any Guaranty or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of the Guarantee Agreement or any Security Document shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article XIII to the contrary, the Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, Obligations arising under Secured Cash Management Agreements and Secured Hedge Agreements unless the Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Agent may request, from the applicable Cash Management Bank or Hedge Bank, as the case may be.

13.22 Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable Law, the Agent may deduct or withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that an Obligor has not already indemnified the Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of any Obligor to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 13.20(b) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each

225

Lender hereby authorizes the Agent to set-off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Agent under this Section 13.22. The agreements in this Section 13.22 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of this Agreement and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other obligations. For the avoidance of doubt, (1) the term “Lender” shall, for purposes of this Section 13.22, include any Letter of Credit Issuer and any Swingline Lender and (2) this Section 13.22 shall not limit or expand the obligations of the Borrower or any Guarantor under Section 5.1 or any other provision of this Agreement.

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

13.24 Erroneous Payments.

(a) Each Lender (and each Participant of any of the foregoing, by its acceptance of a participation) hereby acknowledges and agrees that if the Agent notifies such Lender that the Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds (or any portion thereof) received by such Lender (any of the foregoing, a “Payment Recipient”) from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Payment Recipient) (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) and demands the return of such Payment, such Payment Recipient shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Payment as to which such a demand was made. A notice of the Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limitation of clause (a) above, each Payment Recipient further acknowledges and agrees that if such Payment Recipient receives a Payment from the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in an amount, or on a date different from the amount and/or date specified in a notice of payment sent by the Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”), (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case, it understands and agrees at the time of receipt of such Payment that an error has been made (and that it is deemed to have knowledge of such error) with respect to such Payment. Each Payment Recipient agrees that, in each such case, it shall promptly notify the Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made.

(c) Any Payment required to be returned by a Payment Recipient under this Section shall be made in same day funds in the currency so received, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the

228

Agent at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by the Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. Each Payment Recipient hereby agrees that it shall not assert and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, hereby waives, any right to retain such Payment, and any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment or similar right to any demand by the Agent for the return of any Payment received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

(d) The Borrower and each other Obligor hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Obligor except, in each case, to the extent such erroneous Payment is, and with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds of the Borrower or any other Obligor.

(e) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 13.24 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under any Loan Document.

13.25 Intercreditor Agreements. The Agent and the Collateral Agent are hereby authorized to enter into the Initial Intercreditor Agreement and any other usual and customary intercreditor or subordination agreements or arrangements approved in writing by the Required Lenders (for purposes of this paragraph, any such agreement, an “Intercreditor Arrangement”) to the extent contemplated by the terms hereof, and the parties hereto acknowledge that each Intercreditor Arrangement is binding upon them. Each Lender (a) hereby agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of each Intercreditor Arrangement at any time existing and (b) hereby authorizes and instructs each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into Intercreditor Arrangements approved by the Agent and Required Lenders and to subject the Liens on the Collateral securing the Obligations to the provisions thereof, as the case may be. In addition, but in conformance with the terms hereof, each Lender hereby authorizes each of the Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into (i) any amendments to the Intercreditor Arrangements and (ii) any other intercreditor arrangements, in the case of clauses (i) and (ii) to the extent approved in writing by the Required Lenders and required to give effect to the establishment of intercreditor rights and privileges as contemplated and/or required by this Agreement. Each Lender waives any conflict of interest, now contemplated or arising hereafter, in connection therewith and agrees not to assert against the Agent, the Collateral Agent or any of their respective Affiliates any claims, causes of action, damages or liabilities of whatever kind or nature relating thereto. Each Lender hereby acknowledges and agrees that the provisions of Section 13.25 of this Agreement shall apply with equal effect to any Intercreditor Arrangement.

13.26 Posting of Communications.

(a) The Borrower agrees that the Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic system chosen by the Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).

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

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

230

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

(d) Each Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents. Each Lender and Letter of Credit Issuer agrees (i) to notify the Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Letter of Credit Issuer’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.

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

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

(a) Subject to the provisions of Sections 14.10(b) and (c), the Borrower agrees to defend, indemnify and hold all Agent-Related Persons, each Arranger, and each Lender (without duplication) and each of their respective Affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, advisors and other representatives, successors and permitted assigns of the foregoing (each, an “Indemnified Person”) harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, costs, damages and liabilities (collectively, “Losses”) of any kind or nature that arises out of or relates to (i) the Transactions, including the financing contemplated hereby and the use of proceeds hereof; (ii) breach or non-compliance with the covenants in Article VIII of this Agreement; (iii) any actual or alleged Release or threat of Release of any Contaminant at any facility or location currently or formerly owned, used or operated by Holdings or the Borrower; or (iv) any liability under Environmental Laws relating in any way to Holdings or the Borrower (including any inquiry or investigation of the foregoing) (regardless of whether such Indemnified Person is a party thereto or whether or not such action, claim, litigation or proceeding was brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, affiliates (other than an Affiliated Insurance Entity) or creditors or any other third Person).

(b) Under this Section 14.10, Indemnified Persons shall be entitled to the reasonable and documented or invoiced out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating, responding to or defending any of the Losses foregoing (such expenses, in the case of legal expenses, to be limited to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of a single firm of counsel for all Indemnified Persons, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of a single firm of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single firm of special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all Indemnified Persons taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Indemnified Person(s) affected by such conflict notifies the Borrower of the existence of such conflict and thereafter retains its own counsel, by such other firm of counsel for such affected Indemnified Person)) of any such Indemnified Person.

(c) No Indemnified Person will be indemnified for any Loss or related expense under this Section 14.10 to the extent it has resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or any of its Affiliates or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, advisors or other representatives, successors or permitted assigns of any of the foregoing (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision), (ii) a material

235

breach of the obligations under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents of such Indemnified Person or any of such Indemnified Person’s Affiliates or any of the officers, directors, employees, agents, controlling persons, advisors or other representatives, successors or permitted assigns of any of the foregoing (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable decision) or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or other proceeding that does not arise from any act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Affiliates (other than an Affiliated Insurance Entity) and that is brought by any Indemnified Person against any other Indemnified Person; provided that the Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Arrangers to the extent fulfilling their respective roles as an agent or arranger under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and in their capacities as such, shall remain indemnified in respect of such proceedings to the extent that none of the exceptions set forth in any of clauses (i) and (ii) of the immediately preceding proviso applies to such person at such time.

14.12 Final Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents are intended by the parties hereto to be the final, complete, and exclusive expression of the agreement between them with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof.

Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, however, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING, NO LENDER SHALL EXERCISE ANY RIGHT OF SET-OFF, BANKER’S LIEN, OR THE LIKE WITH RESPECT TO THE LOANS AGAINST ANY DEPOSIT ACCOUNT OR PROPERTY OF THE BORROWER OR ANY GUARANTOR HELD OR MAINTAINED BY SUCH LENDER WITHOUT THE PRIOR WRITTEN CONSENT OF THE REQUIRED LENDERS.

237

any of its Affiliates (in which case such Person agrees (except with respect to any audit or examination conducted by bank accountants or any regulatory authority exercising examination or regulatory authority), to the extent practicable and not prohibited by applicable Law, rule or regulation, to inform you promptly thereof prior to disclosure), (c) to the extent that such information becomes publicly available other than by reason of improper disclosure by such Person or any of its Affiliates or any related parties thereto (including any of the persons referred to in clause (f) below) in violation of any confidentiality obligations owing to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (d) to the extent that such information is or was received by such Person from a third party that is not, to such Person’s knowledge, subject to contractual or fiduciary confidentiality obligations owing to Holdings, any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates, (e) to the extent that such information is independently developed by such Person or its Affiliates without the use of any confidential information and without violating the terms of this Agreement, (f) to such Person’s Affiliates and to its and their respective directors, officers, employees, legal counsel, independent auditors, professionals and other experts or agents who need to know such information in connection with this Agreement and who are informed of the confidential nature of such information or who are subject to customary confidentiality obligations of professional practice (with such Person, to the extent within its control, responsible for such person’s compliance with this Section 14.16), (g) for purposes of establishing a “due diligence” defense, (h) to potential or prospective Lenders, Participants or Assignees and to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, in each case who agree to be bound by the terms of this paragraph (or language substantially similar to this paragraph); provided that, for purposes of this clause (h), (A) the disclosure of any such information to any Lenders, hedge providers, Participants or Assignees, or prospective Lenders, hedge providers, Participants or Assignees referred to above shall be made subject to the acknowledgment and acceptance by such Lender, hedge provider, Participant or Assignee, or prospective Lender, hedge provider, Participant or Assignee that such information is being disseminated on a confidential basis (on substantially the terms set forth in this paragraph or as is otherwise reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and such Person) in accordance with the standard syndication processes of the Agent or customary market standards for dissemination of such type of information, which shall in any event require “click through” or other affirmative actions on the part of recipient to access such information and (B) no such disclosure shall be made by such Person to any person that is at such time a Disqualified Lender, (i) to any other party hereto, (j) any rating agency to the extent that Borrower is given ten (10) days’ prior written notice prior to any such communication and/or disclosure and/or (k) with the consent of the Borrower.

To extent permitted in accordance with Applicable Law, the Agent and the Lenders may disclose information concerning the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to loan syndication and pricing reporting services or in its marketing or promotional materials, with such information to consist of deal terms and other

Each Obligor agrees that its obligation in respect of any Original Currency due from it hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in such other currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following the date the Agent receives payment of any sum so adjudged to be due hereunder in the Second Currency, the Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market, the Original Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so paid; and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased or could have been so purchased is less than the amount originally due in the Original Currency, each Obligor agrees as

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

In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
