Capitalized terms used in this First Lien Amendment No. 8 that are not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the First Lien Credit Agreement (as such First Lien Credit Agreement is to be amended by this First Lien Amendment No. 8 as set forth in Exhibit C hereto).

PRELIMINARY STATEMENTS

A. Reference is made to the Syndicated Facility Agreement (First Lien), dated as of November 4, 2014 (as amended, supplemented, amended and restated or otherwise modified from time to time through the date hereof, the “First Lien Credit Agreement”), by and among Holdings, the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and each Lender from time to time party thereto, pursuant to which the Lenders (as defined in the First Lien Credit Agreement) have extended credit to the Borrowers.

B. Pursuant to Section 2.16(b) of the First Lien Credit Agreement, the Borrower Representative hereby notifies the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Credit Lenders of the Current Revolving Credit Class (it being understood that the provision of a draft of this First Lien Amendment No. 8 to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders under the Current Revolving Credit Class prior to the First Lien Amendment No. 8 Effective Date shall constitute the Revolving Credit Extension Request relating to the extension of some or all of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the Current Revolving Credit Class contemplated by this First Lien Amendment No. 8) that it is requesting that each 2022 Revolving Credit Lender provide 2022 Revolving Credit Commitments in an aggregate principal amount equal to such 2022 Revolving Credit Lender’s Existing Revolving Credit Commitments under the Current Revolving Credit Class in effect immediately prior to giving effect to the First Lien Amendment No. 8 Effective Date on the terms set forth in this First Lien Amendment No. 8. By its signature hereof but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 5 hereof, each 2022 Revolving Credit Lender hereby agrees to (and hereby notifies the Administrative Agent of its agreement to) exchange all of its Revolving Credit Commitments of the Current Revolving Credit Class for 2022 Revolving Credit Commitments.

C. This First Lien Amendment No. 8 constitutes an “Extension Amendment” within the meaning of Section 2.16(d) of the First Lien Credit Agreement and as such may make

 

1


such amendments to the First Lien Credit Agreement as are permitted to be made by an Extension Amendment under the provisions of such Section 2.16(d).

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the undersigned parties agree as follows:

SECTION 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined in this First Lien Amendment No. 8 shall have the same meanings specified in the First Lien Credit Agreement. The provisions of Section 1.02 of the First Lien Credit Agreement are hereby incorporated by reference herein, mutatis mutandis.

From and after the establishment thereof, the 2022 Revolving Credit Commitments shall have terms and provisions identical to the Revolving Credit Commitments outstanding under the First Lien Credit Agreement immediately prior to the First Lien Amendment No. 8 Effective Date, except as set forth in this First Lien Amendment No. 8.

(c) The First Lien Credit Agreement is hereby amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the double-underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: double-underlined text) as set forth in the conformed copy of the First Lien Credit Agreement as amended by this First Lien Amendment No. 8 attached as Exhibit C hereto.

The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the amendment of the First Lien Credit Agreement pursuant to this First Lien Amendment No. 8 and all other Loan Documents amended and/or executed and delivered in connection herewith shall not constitute a novation of the First Lien Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as in effect prior to the First Lien Amendment No. 8 Effective Date.

Except as expressly set forth herein, this First Lien Amendment No. 8 shall not by implication or otherwise limit, impair, constitute a waiver of, or otherwise affect the rights and remedies of any party under, the First Lien Credit Agreement, nor alter, modify, amend or in any way affect any of the terms, conditions, obligations, covenants or agreements contained in the First Lien Credit Agreement, all of which are ratified and affirmed in all respects and shall continue in full force and effect. It is understood and agreed that each reference in each Loan Document to the First Lien Credit Agreement, whether direct or indirect, shall hereafter be deemed to be a reference to the First Lien Credit Agreement as amended hereby and that this First Lien Amendment No. 8 is a Loan Document.
