To the extent that there is no settlement in accordance with Section 6.10 below, the Swing Line Lender may at any time, require the Tranche A Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Tranche A Lender has funded its participation in any Swing Line Loan, Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, not less than weekly, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of all payments of principal and interest received by Administrative Agent in respect of such Swing Line Loan.

(a)Borrowers hereby acknowledge, confirm and agree that as of December 18, 2018, the aggregate principal amount outstanding in respect of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan is $0. On December 21, 2018, so long as no Event of Default exists, subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, each Tranche A-2 Lender severally (and not jointly) agrees to make Tranche A-2 Term Loans to Lead Borrower (on behalf of the Borrowers) in the aggregate principal amount of up to an aggregate principal amount that would not cause the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan to exceed $60,000,000. Such term loan advance, together with the amount outstanding in respect of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans

immediately prior thereto, shall constitute the Tranche A-2 Term Loans, the aggregate outstanding original principal amount of which is equal to $60,000,000.

(b)The principal amount of each of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans shall be repaid in consecutive equal quarterly installments (or earlier as provided herein) of principal in the amount of $2,500,000 commencing on April 1, 2019 and on the first day of each calendar quarter thereafter and the last installment shall be in the amount of the then entire unpaid balance of such Tranche A-2 Term Loans due upon the termination of the Loan Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. The Tranche A-2 Term Loans are (i) to be repaid, together with interest and other amounts, in accordance with this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and (ii) secured by all of the Collateral. Except for the making of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans as set forth in this Section 2.3, Borrowers shall have no right to request and Tranche A-2 Lenders shall have no obligation to make any additional Loans or advances to Borrowers under this Section 2.3 and any payments of the Tranche A-2 Term Loan shall not be subject to any readvance or reborrowing by Borrowers.

(c)In the event that, at any time, the amount of the outstanding Tranche A-2 Term Loans exceeds the lesser of the Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base then in effect or the Tranche A-2 Maximum Credit, unless a Reserve in such amount has been established as provided in clause (xvi) of the definition of the term Reserves (and after giving effect to such Reserve there is Excess Availability), Borrowers shall, upon demand by Administrative Agent at its option or at the direction of the Required Tranche A-2 Lenders, which may be made at any time or from time to time, immediately repay to Administrative Agent the entire amount of any such excess(es) for which payment is demanded (and including breakage or similar costs, if any).

(a)Subject to and upon the terms and conditions contained herein, at the request of a Borrower, Administrative Agent agrees, for the ratable risk of each Tranche A Lender according to its Pro Rata Share, to provide or arrange for Letter of Credit Accommodations for the account of such Borrower containing terms and conditions acceptable to Administrative Agent and the issuer thereof (which issuer shall be Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, a Lender or such other institution reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and Lead Borrower (each, an “Issuing Bank”)). Any payments made by or on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Tranche A Lender to any issuer thereof and/or related parties in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations provided to or for the benefit of a Borrower shall constitute additional Tranche A Revolving Loans to such Borrower pursuant to this Section 2 (or Special Administrative Agent Advances as the case may be).

(b)In addition to any charges, fees or expenses charged by any bank or issuer in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Tranche A Lenders, monthly a letter of credit fee on the daily outstanding balance of the Letter of Credit Accommodations during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof) at a rate equal to the percentage (on a per annum basis) set forth below if the Monthly Average Excess Availability for the immediately preceding calendar month is at or within the amounts indicated for such percentages, payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each succeeding month:

Provided, that, (i) the applicable percentage shall be calculated and established once each month and shall remain in effect until adjusted thereafter after the end of the next month based on the Monthly Average Excess Availability for the immediately preceding month, (ii) notwithstanding the amount of the Monthly Average Excess Availability, for each month prior to the month commencing June 1, 2014, the Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate shall be equal to the percentage set forth in Tier 2 of the schedule above and (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Administrative Agent may, and upon the written direction of Required Tranche A Lenders shall, require Borrowers to pay to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Tranche A Lenders, such letter of credit fee at a rate equal to two (2%) percent per annum plus the then Applicable Letter of Credit Fee Rate on such daily outstanding balance (A) for the period (1) from and after the effective date of termination or non-renewal hereof until Administrative Agent and Lenders have received full and final payment of all outstanding and unpaid Obligations which are not contingent and cash collateral or letter of credit, as Administrative Agent may specify, in the amounts and on the terms required under Section 13.1 hereof for contingent Obligations (notwithstanding entry of a judgment against any Borrower or Guarantor) and (2) from and after the date of the occurrence of an Event of Default and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing. Such letter of credit fee shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed and the obligation of Borrowers to pay such fee shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(c)The Borrower requesting such Letter of Credit Accommodation shall give Administrative Agent two (2) Business Days’ prior written notice of such Borrower’s request for the issuance of a Letter of Credit Accommodation. Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the original face amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodation requested, the effective date (which date shall be a Business Day and in no event shall be a date less than ten (10) days prior to the end of the then current term of this Agreement) of issuance of such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation, whether such Letter of Credit Accommodations may be drawn in a single or in partial draws, the date on which such requested Letter of Credit Accommodation is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), the purpose for which such Letter of Credit Accommodation is to be issued, and the beneficiary of the requested Letter of Credit Accommodation. In no event shall the expiration or termination date of any Letter of Credit Accommodation be on or after five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date. The Borrower requesting the Letter of Credit Accommodation shall attach to such notice the proposed terms of the Letter of Credit Accommodation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Issuing Bank shall not be obligated to issue a Letter of Credit Accommodation in respect of the obligation of a Borrower or Guarantor arising in connection with a lease of Real Property or an employment contract, (aa) in the case of a Letter of Credit Accommodation in connection with such a lease, with a face amount in excess of the amount equal to (x) the amount of rent under such lease, without acceleration, for the greater of one year or fifteen (15%) percent, not to exceed three (3) years, of the remaining term of such lease minus (y) the amount of any cash or other collateral to secure the obligations of a Borrower or Guarantor in respect of such lease and (bb) in the case of a Letter of Credit in connection with an employment contract, with a face amount in excess of the compensation provided by such contract, without acceleration, for a one year period. Effective on the issuance of each Letter of Credit Accommodation, a Reserve shall be established in the applicable amount set forth in Section 2.4(d)(iii)(A) or Section 2.4(d)(iii)(B).

(e)Except in Administrative Agent’s discretion, with the consent of all Lenders, the amount of all outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and all other commitments and obligations made or incurred by Administrative Agent or any Lender in connection therewith shall not at any time exceed $100,000,000.

As between Administrative Agent and Lenders, on the one hand, and Borrowers and Guarantors, on the other hand, and without limitation of any rights of any Borrower or Guarantor as against any issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation, each Borrower and Guarantor assumes all risks with respect to the acts or omissions of the drawer under or beneficiary of any Letter of Credit Accommodation and for such purposes the drawer or beneficiary shall be deemed such Borrower’s agent. Each Borrower and Guarantor assumes all risks for, and agrees to pay, all foreign, Federal, State and local taxes, duties and levies relating to any goods subject to any Letter of Credit Accommodations or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby releases and holds Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless from and against any acts, waivers, errors, delays or omissions, whether caused by any Borrower, Guarantor, by any issuer or correspondent or otherwise with respect to or relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or any Lender as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction.

(h)Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs any issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation to name such Borrower or Guarantor as the account party therein and to deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments, documents and other writings and property received by issuer pursuant to the Letter of Credit Accommodations and to accept and rely upon Administrative Agent’s instructions and agreements with respect to all matters arising in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations or the applications therefor. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed or construed to grant any Borrower or Guarantor any right or authority to pledge the credit of Administrative Agent or any Lender in

any manner. Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have no liability of any kind with respect to any Letter of Credit Accommodation provided by an issuer other than Administrative Agent or any Lender unless Administrative Agent has duly executed and delivered to such issuer the application or a guarantee or indemnification in writing with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation. Borrowers and Guarantors shall be bound by any reasonable interpretation made in good faith by Administrative Agent, or any other issuer or correspondent under or in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodation or any documents, drafts or acceptances thereunder, notwithstanding that such interpretation may be inconsistent with any instructions of any Borrower or Guarantor, except as to any issuer without limiting the rights of any Borrower or Guarantor as against any issuer to the extent provided in clause (m) below.

(k)Any rights, remedies, duties or obligations granted or undertaken by any Borrower or Guarantor to any issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement in favor of any issuer or correspondent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been granted or undertaken by such Borrower or Guarantor to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders. Any duties or obligations undertaken by Administrative Agent to any issuer or correspondent in any application for any Letter of Credit Accommodation, or any other agreement by Administrative Agent in favor of any issuer or correspondent to the extent relating to any Letter of Credit Accommodation, shall be deemed to have been undertaken by Borrowers and Guarantors to Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of Lenders and to apply in all respects to Borrowers and Guarantors.

(l)Immediately upon the issuance or amendment of any Letter of Credit Accommodation, each Tranche A Lender shall be deemed to have irrevocably and

unconditionally purchased and received, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation to the extent of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the liability with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation (including, without limitation, all Obligations with respect thereto).

(m)Each Borrower is irrevocably and unconditionally obligated, without presentment, demand or protest, to pay to Administrative Agent any amounts paid by an issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation with respect to such Letter of Credit Accommodation (whether through the borrowing of Loans in accordance with Section 2.4(a) or otherwise); provided, that, nothing contained herein shall be construed to limit or waive any right of any Borrower to assert against an issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation any claim for direct damages suffered by such Borrower to the extent caused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the issuer in determining whether a request presented under any Letter of Credit Accommodation issued by it complied with the terms of such Letter of Credit Accommodation. In the event that any Borrower fails to pay Administrative Agent on the date of any payment under a Letter of Credit Accommodation in an amount equal to the amount of such payment, Administrative Agent (to the extent it has actual notice thereof) shall promptly notify each Tranche A Lender of the unreimbursed amount of such payment and each Tranche A Lender agrees, upon one (1) Business Day’s notice, to fund to Administrative Agent the purchase of its participation in such Letter of Credit Accommodation in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of the unpaid amount. The obligation of each Tranche A Lender to deliver to Administrative Agent an amount equal to its respective participation pursuant to the foregoing sentence is absolute and unconditional and such remittance shall be made notwithstanding the occurrence or continuance of any Event of Default, the failure to satisfy any other condition set forth in Section 4 or any other event or circumstance. If such amount is not made available by a Tranche A Lender when due, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Tranche A Lender with interest thereon, for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Administrative Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Administrative Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Administrative Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Administrative Agent’s demand, at the highest Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(b)Tranche A-2 Term Loans may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at the option of the Borrowers (and including breakage or similar costs, if any); provided, that, (i) Administrative

Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice from Lead Borrower of such prepayment, (ii) any such prepayment shall be in a principal amount of not less than $1,000,000 and, if greater, in multiples of $1,000,000, (iii) as of the date of any such prepayment and after giving effect thereto, (A) the daily average of the Excess Availability for the immediately preceding ninety (90) consecutive day period shall have been not less than fifteen (15%) percent of the Loan Limit and after giving effect to any such prepayment in respect thereof, on a pro forma basis using the Total Borrowing Base as of the date of the most recent calculation of the Total Borrowing Base immediately prior to any such payment, the Excess Availability shall be not less than such amount and (B) Administrative Agent shall have received projections reasonably satisfactory to it for the twelve (12) month period after the date of any such payment showing, on a pro forma basis after giving effect to such prepayment, Excess Availability at all times during such period of not less than fifteen (15%) percent of the Loan Limit, and (iv) any such prepayment shall be applied to installments of principal in the inverse order of maturity.

(c)In the event that (i) the aggregate amount of the Loans (including Swing Line Loans) and the Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding exceed the Maximum Credit, (ii) the aggregate amount of the Loans (including Swing Line Loans) and Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding exceed the Total Borrowing Base, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Tranche A Loans, the Swing Line Loans and the Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding exceed the lesser of the Tranche A Maximum Credit or the Tranche A Borrowing Base, (iv) the aggregate amount of the Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans outstanding exceed the lesser of the Tranche A-1 Maximum Credit or the Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base, or (v) the aggregate amount of the Loans (including Swing Line Loans) and the Letter of Credit Accommodations outstanding exceed the amount permitted under the Senior Note Indenture or exceed the amount that gives rise to the obligation of Parent or any of its Subsidiaries to grant any lien on its assets to secure the Senior Notes, such event shall not limit, waive or otherwise affect any rights of Administrative Agent or Lenders in such circumstances or on any future occasions and Borrowers shall, upon demand by Administrative Agent at its option or in the case of clauses (i), (ii) and (v) above, at the direction of the Required Lenders or in the case of clause (iii) above, at the direction of the Required Tranche A Lenders or in the case of clause (iv) above, at the direction of the Required Tranche A-1 Lenders, which may be made at any time or from time to time, immediately repay to Administrative Agent the entire amount of any such excess(es) for which payment is demanded (and including breakage or similar costs, if any).

(d)Borrowers shall prepay the Obligations as required under Sections 9.5(a), 9.7(b)(ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (vii), (xi), (xii) and (xiii) and 9.9(f)(ix).

(e)Except as set forth in Section 2.3(c) hereof, in Section 2.5(c) hereof or in any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary, all mandatory prepayments required to be made hereunder shall be applied first, to the Tranche A Revolving Loans then due, second, to the Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans and third, to the Tranche A-2 Term Loans.

(a)Lead Borrower may, at any time, deliver a written request to Administrative Agent to increase the Tranche A Maximum Credit. Any such written request shall specify the

amount of the increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit that Borrowers are requesting, provided, that, (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of any such increase cause the Maximum Credit to exceed $1,400,000,000, (ii) any such request shall be for an increase of not less than $50,000,000, (iii) any such request shall be irrevocable, (iv) in no event shall there be more than four (4) such increases and (v) as of the date of any such increase, and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing.

(b)Upon the receipt by Administrative Agent of any such written request, Administrative Agent shall notify each of the Tranche A Lenders of such request and each Tranche A Lender shall have the option (but not the obligation) to increase the amount of its Tranche A Commitment by an amount up to its Pro Rata Share of the amount of the increase thereof requested by Lead Borrower as set forth in the notice from Administrative Agent to such Tranche A Lender. Each Tranche A Lender shall notify Administrative Agent within fifteen (15) days after the receipt of such notice from Administrative Agent whether it is willing to so increase its Tranche A Commitment, and if so, the amount of such increase; provided, that, (i) the minimum increase in the Tranche A Commitments of each such Tranche A Lender providing the additional Tranche A Commitments shall equal or exceed $1,000,000, and (ii) no Tranche A Lender shall be obligated to provide such increase in its Tranche A Commitment and the determination to increase the Tranche A Commitment of a Tranche A Lender shall be within the sole and absolute discretion of such Tranche A Lender. If the aggregate amount of the increases in the Tranche A Commitments received from the Tranche A Lenders does not equal or exceed the amount of the increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit requested by Lead Borrower, Administrative Agent may seek additional increases from Lenders or Tranche A Commitments from such Eligible Transferees as it may determine, after consultation with Lead Borrower. In the event Tranche A Lenders (or Tranche A Lenders and any such Eligible Transferees, as the case may be) have committed in writing to provide increases in their Tranche A Commitments or new Tranche A Commitments in an aggregate amount in excess of the increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit requested by Borrowers or permitted hereunder, Administrative Agent shall then have the right to allocate such commitments, first to Tranche A Lenders and then to Eligible Transferees, in such amounts and manner as Administrative Agent may determine, after consultation with Lead Borrower. If the aggregate amount of the increase in Tranche A Commitments and new Tranche A Commitments, as the case may be, do not equal or exceed the amount of the increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit requested by Lead Borrower, then Lead Borrower in its sole discretion may determine to not proceed with the proposed increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit; provided, that, Lead Borrower notifies Administrative Agent of such decision not to proceed within three (3) days after Administrative Agent notifies Lead Borrower of the aggregate amount of the increase in Tranche A Commitments and new Tranche A Commitments that the Tranche A Lenders and/or Eligible Assignees have committed to.

(c)The Tranche A Maximum Credit shall be increased by the amount of the increase in the applicable Tranche A Commitments from Tranche A Lenders or new Tranche A Commitments from Eligible Transferees, in each case, selected in accordance with Section 2.6(b) above, for which Administrative Agent has received Assignment and Acceptances thirty (30) days after the date of the request by Lead Borrower for the increase or such earlier date as Administrative Agent and Lead Borrower may agree (but subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth below), whether or not the aggregate amount of the increase in Tranche A Commitments and new Tranche A Commitments, as the case may be, exceed the amount of the

increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit requested by Lead Borrower in accordance with the terms hereof, effective on the date that each of the following conditions have been satisfied:

(i) Administrative Agent shall have received from each Tranche A Lender or Eligible Transferee that is providing an additional Tranche A Commitment as part of the increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit, an Assignment and Acceptance duly executed by such Lender or Eligible Transferee and each Borrower, provided, that, the aggregate Tranche A Commitments set forth in any such Assignment and Acceptance shall be not less than $1,000,000;

(ii) the conditions precedent to the making of Loans set forth in Section 4.2 shall be satisfied as of the date of the increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit, both before and after giving effect to such increase;

(iii) such increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit, on the date of the effectiveness thereof, shall not violate any applicable law (including, without limitation, FIRREA), regulation or order or decree of any court or other Governmental Authority and shall not be enjoined, temporarily, preliminarily or permanently; and

(iv) there shall have been paid to each Tranche A Lender and Eligible Transferee providing an additional Commitment in connection with such increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit all fees and expenses due and payable to such Person on or before the effectiveness of such increase.

(d)As of the effective date of any such increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit, each reference to the term Tranche A Commitments and Tranche A Maximum Credit herein, as applicable, and in any of the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed amended to mean the amount of the Tranche A Commitments and Tranche A Maximum Credit specified in the most recent written notice from Administrative Agent to Lead Borrower of the increase in the Tranche A Commitments and Tranche A Maximum Credit, as applicable.

(e)Effective on the date of each increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit pursuant to this Section 2.6, as applicable, each reference in this Agreement to an amount of Excess Availability shall, automatically and without any further action, be deemed to be increased so that the ratio of each amount of Excess Availability to the amount of the Maximum Credit after such increase in the Maximum Credit remains the same as the ratio of such the amount of Excess Availability to the amount of the Maximum Credit prior to such increase in the Maximum Credit.

(f)In the event that, as a result of an increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit, the Pro Rata Shares of any Lender or Lenders with respect to any Eurodollar Rate Loans are decreased (other than on the last date of the Interest Period(s) applicable thereto), Borrowers shall pay such Lenders, on the effective date of such increase in the Tranche A Maximum Credit, break funding compensation with respect to such decrease in the amount that would be due pursuant to Section 3.3(d) hereof had the Borrowers prepaid such Lenders' interests in such Eurodollar Rate Loans by an amount equal to the decrease.

(g)In no event shall the fees, interest rate and other compensation offered or paid in respect of additional Tranche A Commitments or increase in Tranche A Commitments be higher than the amounts paid and payable to the then existing Tranche A Lenders in respect of their Tranche A Commitments, unless the fees, interest rate and other compensation payable to the then existing Tranche A Lenders are increased to the same as those paid in connection with the such new or additional Tranche A Commitments, except for the initial commitment fee payable in respect of such new or additional Tranche A Commitment of a Tranche A Lender.

. The aggregate amount of each Tranche A Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Tranche A Revolving Loans, Swing Line Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations shall not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Tranche A Commitment, as the same may from time to time be amended in accordance with the provisions hereof. The aggregate amount of each Tranche A-1 Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans shall not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Tranche A-1 Commitment, as the same may from time to time be amended in accordance with the provisions hereof. The aggregate amount of each Tranche A-2 Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans shall not exceed the amount of such Lender’s Tranche A-2 Commitment, as the same may from time to time be amended in accordance with the provisions hereof.

. All Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for all amounts due to Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, regardless of which Borrower actually receives the Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder or the amount of such Loans received or the manner in which Administrative Agent or any Lender accounts for such Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations or other extensions of credit on its books and records. All references herein or in any of the other Financing Agreements to any of the obligation of Borrowers to make any payment hereunder or thereunder shall constitute joint and several obligations of Borrowers. The Obligations with respect to Loans made to a Borrower, and the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of a Borrower hereunder, with respect to Loans made to the other Borrowers, shall be separate and distinct obligations, but all such other Obligations shall be primary obligations of all Borrowers. The Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of a Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be unconditional irrespective of (a) the validity or enforceability, avoidance or subordination of the Obligations of the other Borrowers or of any promissory note or other document evidencing all or any part of the Obligations of the other Borrowers, (b) the absence of any attempt to collect the Obligations from the other Borrowers, any Guarantor or any other security therefor, or the absence of any other action to enforce the same, (c) the waiver, consent, extension, forbearance or granting of any indulgence by Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any provisions of any instrument evidencing the Obligations of the other Borrowers, or any part thereof, or any other agreement now or hereafter executed by the other Borrowers and delivered to Administrative Agent or any Lender, (d) the failure by Administrative Agent or any Lender to take any steps to perfect and maintain its security interest in, or to preserve its rights and maintain its security or collateral for the Obligations of the other Borrowers, (e) the election of Administrative Agent and Lenders in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code, (f) the disallowance of all or any portion of the claim(s) of Administrative Agent or any Lender for the repayment of the

Obligations of the other Borrowers under Section 502 of the Bankruptcy Code, or (g) any other circumstances which might constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of a Guarantor or of the other Borrowers other than to the extent of the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of Administrative Agent or a Lender as determined pursuant to a final non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction. With respect to the Obligations arising as a result of the joint and several liability of a Borrower hereunder with respect to Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations or other extensions of credit made to the other Borrowers hereunder, each Borrower waives, until the Obligations shall have been paid in full and this Agreement shall have been terminated, any right to enforce any right of subrogation or any remedy which Administrative Agent or any Lender now has or may hereafter have against any Borrower or Guarantor and any benefit of, and any right to participate in, any security or collateral given to Administrative Agent or any Lender. Upon any Event of Default, and for so long as such Event of Default is continuing, Administrative Agent may proceed directly and at once, without notice, against any Borrower to collect and recover the full amount, or any portion of the Obligations, without first proceeding against the other Borrowers or any other Person, or against any security or collateral for the Obligations. Each Borrower consents and agrees that Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be under no obligation to marshall any assets in favor of Borrower(s) or against or in payment of any or all of the Obligations. To the extent of any guarantee or similar liability with respect to Swap Obligations, each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Borrower or Guarantor to honor all of its obligations under any such guarantee or similar liability in respect of Swap Obligations (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations as it relates to such other Borrower or Guarantor, voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this provision constitute a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Borrower or Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act. The term “Qualified ECP Guarantor” means, in respect of any Swap Obligation, each Borrower or Guarantor that has total assets exceeding $10,000,000 at the time such Swap Obligation is incurred or such other person as constitutes an “eligible contract participant” under the Commodity Exchange Act or any regulations promulgated thereunder. The term “Commodity Exchange Act” means the Commodity Exchange Act (7 U.S.C. § 1 et seq.), as amended from time to time, and any successor statute. The term “Swap Obligation” means, with respect to any Guarantor, any obligation to pay or perform under any agreement, contract or transaction that constitutes a “swap” within the meaning of section 1a(47) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

(a)Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, interest on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans at the Interest Rate. All interest accruing hereunder on and after the date of any Event of Default or termination hereof shall be payable on demand.

(b)Each Borrower may from time to time request Eurodollar Rate Loans or may request that Base Rate Loans be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans or that any existing Eurodollar Rate Loans continue for an additional Interest Period. Such request from a Borrower shall specify the amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loans or the amount of the Base Rate Loans to be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans or the amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loans to be continued (subject to the limits set forth below) and the Interest Period to be applicable to such Eurodollar Rate Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions contained herein, three (3) Business Days after receipt by Administrative Agent of such a request from a Borrower, such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or Base Rate Loans shall be converted to Eurodollar Rate Loans or such Eurodollar Rate Loans shall continue, as the case may be, provided, that, (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, (ii) no party hereto shall have sent any notice of termination of this Agreement, such Borrower shall have complied with such customary procedures as are established by Administrative Agent and specified by Administrative Agent to Lead Borrower from time to time for requests by Borrowers for Eurodollar Rate Loans, (iii) no more than fifteen (15) Interest Periods may be in effect at any one time, (iv) the amount of any Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be not less than $1,000,000 and the aggregate amount of the Eurodollar Rate Loans outstanding at any time must be in an amount not less than $5,000,000, and (v) Administrative Agent and each Lender shall have determined that the Interest Period or Adjusted Eurodollar Rate is available to Administrative Agent and such Lender and can be readily determined as of the date of the request for such Eurodollar Rate Loan by such Borrower. Any request by or on behalf of a Borrower for Eurodollar Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans or to continue any existing Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be irrevocable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not be required to purchase United States Dollar deposits in the London interbank market or other applicable Eurodollar Rate market to fund any Eurodollar Rate Loans, but the provisions hereof shall be deemed to apply as if Administrative Agent and Lenders had purchased such deposits to fund the Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(c)Any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall automatically convert to Base Rate Loans upon the last day of the applicable Interest Period, unless Administrative Agent has received and approved a request to continue such Eurodollar Rate Loan at least three (3) Business Days prior to such last day in accordance with the terms hereof. Any Eurodollar Rate Loans shall, at Administrative Agent’s option, upon notice by Administrative Agent to Lead Borrower, be subsequently converted to Base Rate Loans in the event that this Agreement shall terminate or not be renewed. Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, upon demand by Administrative Agent (or Administrative Agent may, at its option, charge any loan account of any Borrower) any amounts required to compensate any Lender or Participant for any loss (including loss of anticipated profits), cost or expense incurred by such person, as a result of the conversion of Eurodollar Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans pursuant to any of the foregoing.

(d)Interest shall be payable by Borrowers to Administrative Agent, for the account of Lenders, monthly in arrears not later than the first day of each calendar month and shall be calculated on the basis of a three hundred sixty (360) day year and actual days elapsed. The interest rate on non-contingent Obligations (other than Eurodollar Rate Loans) shall increase or decrease by an amount equal to each increase or decrease in the Base Rate effective on the first day of the month after any change in such Base Rate is announced based on the Base Rate in effect on the last day of the month in which any such change occurs. In no event shall charges

constituting interest payable by Borrowers to Administrative Agent and Lenders exceed the maximum amount or the rate permitted under any applicable law or regulation, and if any such part or provision of this Agreement is in contravention of any such law or regulation, such part or provision shall be deemed amended to conform thereto.

(a)Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent, for the account of Tranche A Lenders and Tranche A-1 Lenders, an unused line fee calculated at one-quarter of one (0.25%) percent per annum multiplied by the difference between the Tranche A Maximum Credit plus the Tranche A-1 Maximum Credit and the average outstanding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations during the immediately preceding month (or part thereof) while this Agreement is in effect and for so long thereafter as any of the Obligations are outstanding, which fee shall be payable on the first day of each month in arrears. Swing Line Loans shall not be considered in the calculation of the unused line fee. Such unused line fee shall be calculated on the basis of a 360 day year and actual days elapsed.

(b)Borrowers agree to pay to Administrative Agent the other fees and amounts set forth in the Fee Letter in the amounts and at the times specified therein.

(a)If after the Effective Date, either (i) any change in, or in the interpretation of, any law or regulation is introduced, including, without limitation, with respect to reserve or liquidity requirements, applicable to Lender or any banking or financial institution from whom any Lender borrows funds or obtains credit necessary to fund the Loans hereunder (a “Funding Bank”), or (ii) a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any future guideline or request from any central bank or other Governmental Authority or (iii) a Funding Bank or any Lender determines that the adoption of any applicable law, rule or regulation regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof has or would have the effect described below, or a Funding Bank or any Lender complies with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency, and in the case of any event set forth in this clause (iii), such adoption, change or compliance has or would have the direct or indirect effect of reducing the rate of return on any Lender’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Lender could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration the Funding Bank’s or Lender’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, and the result of any of the foregoing events described in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) is or results in an increase in the cost to any Lender of funding or maintaining the Loans, the Letter of Credit Accommodations or its Commitment, then Borrowers and Guarantors shall from time to time upon demand by Administrative Agent pay to Administrative Agent additional amounts sufficient to indemnify Lenders against such increased cost on an after-tax basis (after taking into account applicable deductions and credits in respect of the amount indemnified). A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost shall be submitted to Lead Borrower by Administrative Agent and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)If prior to the first day of any Interest Period, (i) Administrative Agent shall have determined in good faith (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon Borrowers and Guarantors) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurodollar Rate for such Interest Period, (ii) Administrative Agent has received notice from the Required Lenders that the Eurodollar Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to Lenders of making or maintaining Eurodollar Rate Loans during such Interest Period, or (iii) Dollar deposits in the principal amounts of the Eurodollar Rate Loans to which such Interest Period is to be applicable are not generally available in the London interbank market, Administrative Agent shall give telecopy or telephonic notice thereof to Lead Borrower as soon as practicable thereafter, and will also give prompt written notice to Lead Borrower when such conditions no longer exist. If such notice is given (A) any Eurodollar Rate Loans requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans, (B) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to or continued as Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be converted to or continued as Base Rate Loans and (C) each outstanding Eurodollar Rate Loan shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period thereof, to Base Rate Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by Administrative Agent, no further Eurodollar Rate Loans shall be made or continued as such, nor shall any Borrower have the right to convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans.

(c)Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any law, treaty, rule or regulation or final, non-appealable determination of an arbitrator or a court or other Governmental Authority or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Effective Date shall make it unlawful for Administrative Agent or any Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, (i) Administrative Agent or such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to Lead Borrower (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (ii) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurodollar Rate Loans, continue Eurodollar Rate Loans as such and convert Base Rate Loans to Eurodollar Rate Loans shall forthwith be canceled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Eurodollar Rate Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment only to make a Base Rate Loan when a Eurodollar Rate Loan is requested and (iii) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurodollar Rate Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to Base Rate Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurodollar Rate Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.3(d) below.

(d)Borrowers and Guarantors shall indemnify Administrative Agent and each Lender and to hold Administrative Agent and each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which Administrative Agent or such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (i) default by a Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or extension of Eurodollar Rate Loans after such Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Loan Agreement, (ii) default by any Borrower in making any prepayment of a Eurodollar Rate Loan after such Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, and (iii) the making of a prepayment of Eurodollar Rate Loans on a day which is

not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. With respect to Eurodollar Rate Loans, such indemnification may include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so borrowed, converted or extended, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to borrow, convert or extend to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or extend, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurodollar Rate Loans provided for herein over (B) the amount of interest (as determined by such Administrative Agent or such Lender) which would have accrued to Administrative Agent or such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurodollar market. This covenant shall survive the termination or non-renewal of this Loan Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.

(e)Borrowers and Guarantors shall be liable for any tax or penalties imposed on Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of the financing arrangements provided for herein and each Borrower and Guarantor agrees to indemnify and hold Administrative Agent harmless with respect to the foregoing, and to repay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, on demand the amount thereof, and until paid by such Borrower or Guarantor such amount shall be added and deemed part of the Loans, provided, that, nothing contained herein shall be construed to require any Borrower or Guarantor to pay any income, franchise or similar taxes imposed upon Lenders and attributable to any amounts charged or paid hereunder to Lenders. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

(f)Each Lender requiring compensation pursuant to Section 3.3(a), 3.3(d) or 3.3(e) shall notify Borrowers and Administrative Agent in writing of any event or circumstance giving rise to such demand for compensation no later than ninety (90) days following the date upon which the Lender has actual knowledge of such event or circumstance, and Borrowers shall not be obligated to compensate a Lender for any such increased cost or reduction which is not covered in such notice within such ninety (90) day period. Any demand for compensation pursuant to this Section 3.3 shall be in writing and shall state the amount due, if any, under Section 3.3(d) or 3.3(e) and shall set forth in reasonable detail the calculations upon which such Lender determined such amount. Such written demand shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(g)If a Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Lender pursuant to Section 3.3(a) or Section 3.3(e) that increase the effective lending rate of such Lender with respect to its share of the Loans to greater than one-eighth (1/8%) percent in excess of the percentage of the effective lending rate of the other Lenders, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts (consistent with legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its lending office with respect to making Eurodollar Rate Loans so as to eliminate any such additional payment by Borrowers which may thereafter accrue, if such change in the judgment of such Lender is not otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender. In the event that any one or more Lenders, pursuant to Section 3.3(a) or Section 3.3(e) hereof, incur any increased costs or taxes (other than increased costs to the extent such increased costs are not a recurring cost) for which any such Lender demands compensation pursuant to Section 3.3(a) or Section 3.3(e) hereof which increases the effective lending rate of such Lender with respect to its share of the Loans to

greater than one-eighth (1/8%) percent in excess of the percentage of the effective lending rate of the other Lenders and such Lender has not mitigated such costs within sixty (60) days after receipt by such Lender from Lead Borrower of a written notice that such Lender’s effective lending rate has so exceeded the effective lending rate of the other Lenders, then and in any such event, Lead Borrower may substitute another financial institution which is an Eligible Transferee acceptable to Administrative Agent for such Lender to assume the Commitment of such Lender and to purchase the Loans of such Lender hereunder, without recourse to or warranty by, or expense to, such Lender for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal amount of the Loans owing to such Lender plus any accrued but unpaid interest on such Loans and accrued but unpaid fees and other amounts in respect of such Lender’s Commitment and share of the Loans (other than any early termination fee). Upon such purchase such Lender shall no longer be a party hereto or have any rights or benefits hereunder (except for rights or benefits that such Lender would retain hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements upon payment in full of all of the Obligations other than as to any early termination fee) and the replacement Lender shall succeed to the rights and benefits, and shall assume the obligations, of such Lender hereunder and thereunder. In no event may Lead Borrower replace a Lender that is also Administrative Agent or an issuer of a Letter of Credit Accommodation.

(h)For purposes of this Section 3.3 and any other applicable provision of this Agreement, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority), the Bank for International Settlements and all rules, regulations, orders, requests, guidelines or directives in connection therewith are deemed to have been enacted and become effective after the date of this Agreement.

. Each of the following is a condition precedent to Administrative Agent and Lenders making the initial Loans and providing the initial Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder:

(a)each of the Nash-Finch Merger Documents shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Arrangers in all material respects (and the Arrangers acknowledge that the Nash-Finch Merger Documents provided to them as of July 21, 2013 are acceptable to them), and contemporaneously with the closing of the Credit Facility on the Effective Date, the Nash-Finch Merger shall be consummated in all material respects in accordance with the terms of the Nash-Finch Merger Documents without any material amendment or waiver thereof which is materially adverse to the Lenders except as consented to by Arrangers (it being understood that any change to the definitions of “Nash-Finch Material Adverse Effect”, “Spartan Material Adverse Effect”, or “Material Adverse Effect” contained in the Nash-Finch Merger Agreement, any waiver of the conditions precedent set forth in the Nash-Finch Merger Agreement regarding the absence of a “Nash-Finch Material Adverse Effect”, “Spartan Material Adverse Effect”, or “Material Adverse Effect”, any change in the representations in the Nash-Finch Merger Agreement relating to a “Nash-Finch Material Adverse Effect”, “Spartan Material Adverse Effect”, or “Material Adverse Effect” or any approval, waiver or consent to any actions taken or failure to take action by Parent as provided for in Section 6.11 of the Nash-Finch Merger Agreement by Parent without the consent of Arrangers, shall be deemed to be material and adverse to the interests of the Lenders),

in no way be construed so as to limit, impair or otherwise affect Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s continuing security interests in and liens upon any rights or interests of any Borrower or Guarantor in or to (1) monies due or to become due under any such contract, lease, permit, license, license agreement or stock, or (2) any proceeds from the sale, license, lease, or other dispositions of any such contract, lease, permit, license, license agreement or stock, (iii) any United States intent-to-use trademark applications to the extent that, and solely during the period in which, the grant of a security interest therein would impair the validity or enforceability of such intent-to-use trademark applications under applicable federal law; provided, that, upon submission and acceptance by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office of an amendment to allege use pursuant to 15 U.S.C. Section 1060(a), such intent-to-use trademark application shall be considered Collateral, (iv) shares of any Subsidiary that is a “controlled foreign corporation” in excess of sixty-five (65%) percent (or such greater percentage if pledging such greater amount would not result in adverse tax consequences to Borrowers) of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Capital Stock of such Subsidiary entitled to vote (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.956-2) or (v) any alcoholic liquor of any Borrower or Guarantor, if under applicable law with respect thereto, the valid grant of a security interest or lien therein to Administrative Agent is prohibited and such prohibition is not capable of being waived or modified under such applicable law; provided, that, the foregoing exclusion shall in no way be construed so as to limit, impair or otherwise affect Administrative Agent’s unconditional continuing security interests in and liens upon all proceeds of any of the foregoing Excluded Assets and any rights or interests of such Borrower or Guarantor in or to monies due or to become due with respect to or under any contract, lease, permit, license, charter or license agreement (including any Receivables) with respect thereto.

(a)Each Borrower and Guarantor irrevocably and unconditionally authorizes Administrative Agent (or its agent) to file at any time and from time to time such financing statements with respect to the Collateral naming Administrative Agent or its designee as the secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, as Administrative Agent may require, and including any other information with respect to such Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise required by part 5 of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code of such jurisdiction as Administrative Agent may determine, together with any amendment and continuations with respect thereto, which authorization shall apply to all financing statements filed on, prior to or after the Effective Date. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby ratifies and approves all financing statements naming Administrative Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, as debtor with respect to the Collateral (and any amendments with respect to such financing statements) filed by or on behalf of Administrative Agent prior to the Effective Date and ratifies and confirms the authorization of Administrative Agent to file such financing statements (and amendments, if any). Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to adopt on behalf of such Borrower and Guarantor any symbol required for authenticating any electronic filing. In the event that the description of the collateral in any financing statement naming Administrative Agent or its designee as the secured party and any Borrower or Guarantor as debtor includes assets and properties of such Borrower or Guarantor that do not at any time constitute Collateral, whether hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements or otherwise, the filing of such financing statement shall nonetheless be deemed authorized by such Borrower or Guarantor to the extent of the Collateral

included in such description and it shall not render the financing statement ineffective as to any of the Collateral or otherwise affect the financing statement as it applies to any of the Collateral. In no event shall any Borrower or Guarantor at any time file, or permit or cause to be filed, any correction statement or termination statement with respect to any financing statement (or amendment or continuation with respect thereto) naming Administrative Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor.

(b)Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any chattel paper (whether tangible or electronic) or instruments as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Information Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any chattel paper or instrument after the Effective Date, Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly notify Administrative Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon the receipt thereof by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor (including by any agent or representative), such Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent, all tangible chattel paper and instruments that such Borrower or Guarantor has or may at any time acquire, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify, in each case except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree. At Administrative Agent’s option, each Borrower and Guarantor shall, or Administrative Agent may at any time on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor, cause the original of any such instrument or chattel paper to be conspicuously marked in a form and manner acceptable to Administrative Agent with the following legend referring to chattel paper or instruments as applicable: “This [chattel paper][instrument] is subject to the security interest of Wells Fargo Capital Finance, LLC and any sale, transfer, assignment or encumbrance of this [chattel paper][instrument] violates the rights of such secured party.”

(c)In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time hold or acquire an interest in any electronic chattel paper or any “transferable record” (as such term is defined in Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or in Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act as in effect in any relevant jurisdiction), such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Administrative Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall take, or cause to be taken, such actions as Administrative Agent may request to give Administrative Agent control of such electronic chattel paper under Section 9-105 of the UCC and control of such transferable record under Section 201 of the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act or, as the case may be, Section 16 of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act, as in effect in such jurisdiction.

(d)Each Borrower and Guarantor does not have any deposit accounts as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Information Certificate. Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the Effective Date open, establish or maintain any deposit account unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Administrative Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of any Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity acceptable to Administrative Agent the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the bank at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such bank with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, (ii) the bank where such account is opened or maintained shall be

acceptable to Administrative Agent, and (iii) on or before the opening of such deposit account, such Borrower or Guarantor shall as Administrative Agent may specify either (A) deliver to Administrative Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement with respect to such deposit account duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and the bank at which such deposit account is opened and maintained or (B) arrange for Administrative Agent to become the customer of the bank with respect to the deposit account on terms and conditions acceptable to Administrative Agent. The terms of this subsection (d) shall not apply to deposit accounts specifically and exclusively used for payroll, payroll taxes and other employee wage and benefit payments to or for the benefit of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s salaried employees or deposit accounts for which a Deposit Account Control Agreement is not required pursuant to Section 6.3.

(e)No Borrower or Guarantor owns or holds, directly or indirectly, beneficially or as record owner or both, any investment property, as of the Effective Date, or have any investment account, securities account, commodity account or other similar account with any bank or other financial institution or other securities intermediary or commodity intermediary as of the Effective Date, in each case except as set forth in the Information Certificate.

(f)In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall at any time after the Effective Date hold or acquire any certificated securities, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly endorse, assign and deliver the same to Administrative Agent, accompanied by such instruments of transfer or assignment duly executed in blank as Administrative Agent may from time to time specify. If any securities, now or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Guarantor are uncertificated and are issued to such Borrower or Guarantor or its nominee directly by the issuer thereof, such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately notify Administrative Agent thereof and cause the issuer to agree to comply with instructions from Administrative Agent as to such securities, without further consent of any Borrower or Guarantor or such nominee.

(g)Borrowers and Guarantors shall not, directly or indirectly, after the Effective Date open, establish or maintain any investment account, securities account, commodity account or any other similar account (other than a deposit account) with any securities intermediary or commodity intermediary unless each of the following conditions is satisfied: (i) Administrative Agent shall have received not less than five (5) Business Days prior written notice of the intention of such Borrower or Guarantor to open or establish such account which notice shall specify in reasonable detail and specificity acceptable to Administrative Agent the name of the account, the owner of the account, the name and address of the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary at which such account is to be opened or established, the individual at such intermediary with whom such Borrower or Guarantor is dealing and the purpose of the account, (ii) the securities intermediary or commodity intermediary (as the case may be) where such account is opened or maintained shall be acceptable to Administrative Agent, and (iii) on or before the opening of such investment account, securities account or other similar account with a securities intermediary or commodity intermediary, such Borrower or Guarantor shall execute and deliver, and cause to be executed and delivered to Administrative Agent, an Investment Property Control Agreement with respect thereto duly authorized, executed and delivered by such Borrower or Guarantor and such securities intermediary or commodity intermediary.

(h)Borrowers and Guarantors are not the beneficiary or otherwise entitled to any right to payment under any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Information Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall be entitled to or shall receive any right to payment under any letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or any similar instrument, whether as beneficiary thereof or otherwise after the Effective Date, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Administrative Agent thereof in writing. Such Borrower or Guarantor shall immediately, as Administrative Agent may specify, either (i) deliver, or cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent, with respect to any such letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument, the written agreement of the issuer and any other nominated person obligated to make any payment in respect thereof (including any confirming or negotiating bank), in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, consenting to the assignment of the proceeds of the letter of credit to Administrative Agent by such Borrower or Guarantor and agreeing to make all payments thereon directly to Administrative Agent or as Administrative Agent may otherwise direct or (ii) cause Administrative Agent to become, at Borrowers’ expense, the transferee beneficiary of the letter of credit, banker’s acceptance or similar instrument (as the case may be).

(i)Borrowers and Guarantors do not have any commercial tort claims in excess of $1,000,000 as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Information Certificate. In the event that any Borrower or Guarantor shall at any time after the Effective Date have any commercial tort claims, such Borrower or Guarantor shall promptly notify Administrative Agent thereof in writing, which notice shall (i) set forth in reasonable detail the basis for and nature of such commercial tort claim and (ii) include the express grant by such Borrower or Guarantor to Administrative Agent of a security interest in such commercial tort claim (and the proceeds thereof). In the event that such notice does not include such grant of a security interest, the sending thereof by such Borrower or Guarantor to Administrative Agent shall be deemed to constitute such grant to Administrative Agent. Upon the sending of such notice, any commercial tort claim described therein shall constitute part of the Collateral and shall be deemed included therein. Without limiting the authorization of Administrative Agent provided in Section 5.2(a) hereof or otherwise arising by the execution by such Borrower or Guarantor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, Administrative Agent is hereby irrevocably authorized from time to time and at any time to file such financing statements naming Administrative Agent or its designee as secured party and such Borrower or Guarantor as debtor, or any amendments to any financing statements, covering any such commercial tort claim as Collateral. In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor shall promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, to Administrative Agent such other agreements, documents and instruments as Administrative Agent may require in connection with such commercial tort claim.

(j)Borrowers and Guarantors do not have any goods, documents of title or other Collateral in the custody, control or possession of a third party as of the Effective Date, except as set forth in the Information Certificate and except for goods located in the United States in transit to a location of a Borrower or Guarantor permitted herein in the ordinary course of business of such Borrower or Guarantor in the possession of the carrier transporting such goods. In the event that any goods, documents of title or other Collateral are at any time after the Effective Date in the custody, control or possession of any other person not referred to in the Information Certificate or such carriers, Borrowers and Guarantors shall promptly notify Administrative

Agent thereof in writing. Promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver to Administrative Agent a Collateral Access Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by such person and the Borrower or Guarantor that is the owner of such Collateral.

(k)Borrowers and Guarantors shall take any other actions reasonably requested by Administrative Agent from time to time to cause the attachment, perfection and first priority of, and the ability of Administrative Agent to enforce, the security interest of Administrative Agent in any and all of the Collateral, including, without limitation, (i) executing, delivering and, where appropriate, filing financing statements and amendments relating thereto under the UCC or other applicable law, to the extent, if any, that any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s signature thereon is required therefor, (ii) causing Administrative Agent’s name to be noted as secured party on any certificate of title for a titled good if such notation is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Administrative Agent to enforce, the security interest of Administrative Agent in such Collateral, (iii) complying with any provision of any statute, regulation or treaty of the United States as to any Collateral if compliance with such provision is a condition to attachment, perfection or priority of, or ability of Administrative Agent to enforce, the security interest of Administrative Agent in such Collateral, (iv) obtaining the consents and approvals of any Governmental Authority or third party, including, without limitation, any consent of any licensor, lessor or other person obligated on Collateral, and taking all actions required by any earlier versions of the UCC or by other law, as applicable in any relevant jurisdiction.

(l)Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agent may determine, with respect to any specific items of Collateral, not to perfect its security interest therein based on the de minimis value thereof relative to the costs associated with such perfection.

. Administrative Agent shall maintain one or more loan account(s) on its books in which shall be recorded (a) all Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations and other Obligations and the Collateral, (b) all payments made by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor and (c) all other appropriate debits and credits as provided in this Agreement, including fees, charges, costs, expenses and interest. All entries in the loan account(s) shall be made in accordance with Administrative Agent’s customary practices as in effect from time to time.

. Administrative Agent shall render to Lead Borrower each month a statement setting forth the balance in the Borrowers’ loan account(s) maintained by Administrative Agent for Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, including principal, interest, fees, costs and expenses. Each such statement shall be subject to subsequent adjustment by Administrative Agent but shall, absent manifest errors or omissions, be considered correct and deemed accepted by Borrowers and Guarantors and conclusively binding upon Borrowers and Guarantors as an account stated except to the extent that Administrative Agent receives a written notice from Lead Borrower of any specific exceptions of Lead Borrower thereto within forty-five (45) days after the date such statement has been received by Lead

Borrower. Until such time as Administrative Agent shall have rendered to Lead Borrower a written statement as provided above, the balance in any Borrower’s loan account(s) shall be presumptive evidence of the amounts due and owing to Administrative Agent and Lenders by Borrowers and Guarantors.

(a)Each Borrower and Guarantor shall establish and maintain, at its expense, deposit account arrangements and merchant payment arrangements with the banks set forth on Schedule 8.10 to the Information Certificate and subject to Section 5.2(d) hereof such other banks as such Borrower or Guarantor may hereafter select. The banks set forth on Schedule 8.10 to the Information Certificate constitute all of the banks with which Borrowers and Guarantors have deposit account arrangements and merchant payment arrangements as of the Effective Date and identifies each of the deposit accounts at such banks that are used solely for receiving store receipts from a retail store location of a Borrower (together with any other deposit accounts at any time established or used by any Borrower for receiving such store receipts from any retail store location, collectively, the “Store Accounts” and each individually, a “Store Account”) or otherwise describes the nature of the use of such deposit account by such Borrower.

(i) Each Borrower shall deposit all proceeds from sales of Inventory in every form, including, without limitation, cash, checks, credit card sales drafts, credit card sales or charge slips or receipts and other forms of daily store receipts, from each retail store location of such Borrower (other than Medicare Accounts and Medicaid Accounts) into the Store Account of such Borrower used solely for such purpose in accordance with the current practices of such Borrower as of the Effective Date, but in any event no less frequently than (x) once every five (5) Business Days if Excess Availability is equal to or greater than $250,000,000, or (y) once every three (3) Business Days if Excess Availability is less than $250,000,000; except, that, Borrowers may have up to $12,500,000 in cash in the aggregate at all retail stores immediately after each deposit of funds from the stores into the applicable Store Accounts. All such funds deposited into the Store Accounts shall be sent by wire transfer or other electronic funds transfer on each Business Day to the Blocked Accounts as provided in Section 6.3(a)(iii) below, except nominal amounts which are required to be maintained in such Store Accounts under the terms of such Borrower’s arrangements with the bank at which such Store Accounts are maintained (which amounts, together with all amounts held at the retail store locations and not yet deposited in the Store Accounts, shall not in the aggregate exceed $12,500,000 at any one time, except to the extent from time to time additional amounts may be held in the retail stores or the Store Accounts on Saturday, Sunday or other days where the applicable depository bank is closed, which additional amounts are to be, and shall be, transferred on the next Business Day to the Blocked Accounts) and except as Administrative Agent may otherwise agree; provided, that, the $12,500,000 amount referenced above shall be automatically increased if the aggregate number of retail store locations of Borrowers increases from the aggregate net number of retail store locations of Borrowers that exist on the date of this Agreement, by a pro rata amount based on such increase.

(ii) Each Borrower shall establish and maintain a separate lockbox and related deposit account into which such Borrower shall promptly deposit, and shall direct each Fiscal Intermediary or other Third Party Payor in accordance with the applicable Medicare and

Medicaid regulations to directly remit, all payments in respect of any Medicare Accounts or Medicaid Accounts. Such separate lockboxes and related deposit accounts shall only be used for purposes of receiving payments in respect of Medicare Accounts and Medicaid Accounts and shall be under the sole control of the applicable Borrower; provided, that, (A) Borrowers shall authorize, direct and instruct the depository banks at which such separate lockboxes and deposit accounts are maintained to remit by federal funds wire transfer all funds received or deposited into such lockboxes and related deposit accounts amounts on deposit in such accounts on a daily basis to one of the Blocked Accounts or such bank account of Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent may from time to time designate for such purpose, which instructions by Borrowers to such banks may only be changed after not less than three (3) Business Days’ prior written notice to such banks and Administrative Agent and (B) any change in such instructions without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent shall be an Event of Default hereunder.

(iii) Each Borrower shall establish and maintain, at its expense, deposit accounts with such banks as are reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent (the “Blocked Accounts”) into which each Borrower shall promptly either cause all amounts on deposit in the Store Accounts of such Borrower to be sent as provided in Section 6.3(a)(i) above or shall itself deposit or cause to be deposited all proceeds of Receivables or other Collateral, including all proceeds from sales of Inventory, all amounts payable to each Borrower from Credit Card Issuers and Credit Card Processors and all other proceeds of Collateral (but not including payments of Medicare Accounts or Medicaid Accounts that are sent to the separate lockbox and related deposit accounts established pursuant to clause (ii) above).

(iv) Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to Administrative Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by each bank where a Blocked Account is maintained as provided in Section 5.2(d) hereof. At any time a Default or an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, Borrowers and Guarantors shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Administrative Agent a Deposit Account Control Agreement duly authorized, executed and delivered by such banks where a Store Account is maintained as Administrative Agent shall specify. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or Lenders, Administrative Agent may, at its option, instruct the depository banks at which the Blocked Accounts are maintained to transfer all available funds received or deposited into the Blocked Accounts to the Administrative Agent Payment Account at any time there is a Cash Dominion Event. Without limiting any other rights or remedies of Administrative Agent or Lenders, in the event that a Deposit Account Control Agreement is in effect for a Store Account, then Administrative Agent may, at its option, instruct the depository bank at which the Store Account is maintained to transfer all available funds received or deposited into the Store Account to the Administrative Agent Payment Account at any time there is a Cash Dominion Event. As to the Blocked Accounts or the Store Accounts, as the case may be, Administrative Agent shall send to Lead Borrower a copy of any such written instruction sent by Administrative Agent to the depository bank promptly thereafter. In the event that at any time ninety (90) days after Administrative Agent has instructed such depository banks to transfer such funds to the Administrative Agent Payment Account, a Cash Dominion Event no longer exists, upon Lead Borrower’s written request received by Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after such Cash Dominion Event no longer exists, Administrative Agent shall

rescind its prior instructions and give new instructions to such depository banks to transfer the funds on deposit in such accounts to such operating deposit account of Borrowers and Guarantors as Lead Borrower may specify in writing to Administrative Agent until such time as Administrative Agent is entitled to notify and shall notify the depository bank otherwise as provided above. At all times that Administrative Agent shall have notified any depository bank to transfer funds from a Blocked Account or Store Account to the Administrative Agent Payment Account, all payments made to such Blocked Accounts or Store Accounts, whether in respect of the Receivables, as proceeds of Inventory or other Collateral or otherwise shall be treated as payments to Administrative Agent in respect of the Obligations and therefore shall constitute the property of Administrative Agent and Lenders to the extent of the then outstanding Obligations.

(b)For purposes of calculating the amount of the Loans available to each Borrower, such payments will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt by Administrative Agent of immediately available funds in the Administrative Agent Payment Account provided such payments and notice thereof are received in accordance with Administrative Agent’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit the applicable loan account on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. For the purposes of calculating interest on the Obligations, such payments or other funds received will be applied (conditional upon final collection) to the Obligations on the Business Day of receipt of immediately available funds by Administrative Agent in the Administrative Agent Payment Account provided such payments or other funds and notice thereof are received in accordance with Administrative Agent’s usual and customary practices as in effect from time to time and within sufficient time to credit the applicable loan account on such day, and if not, then on the next Business Day. In the event that at any time or from time to time there are no Loans outstanding or the amounts on deposit in the Blocked Accounts are not being remitted to the Administrative Agent Payment Account, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to an administrative fee in an amount calculated based on the Interest Rate for Eurodollar Rate Loans (on a per annum basis) then in effect multiplied by the amount of the funds received in the Blocked Account for such day in accordance with the customary practice of Administrative Agent. The economic benefit of the timing in the application of payments (and the administrative fee with respect thereto, if applicable) shall be for the sole benefit of Administrative Agent.

(c)Each Borrower and Guarantor and their respective employees, agents and Subsidiaries shall, acting as trustee for Administrative Agent, receive, as the property of Administrative Agent, any monies, checks, notes, drafts or any other payment relating to and/or proceeds of Accounts or other Collateral which come into their possession or under their control and promptly upon receipt thereof, shall deposit or cause the same to be deposited in the Blocked Accounts, or remit the same or cause the same to be remitted, in kind, to Administrative Agent. In no event shall the same be commingled with any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s own funds. Borrowers agree to reimburse Administrative Agent on demand for any amounts owed or paid to any bank or other financial institution at which a Blocked Account or any other deposit account or investment account is established or any other bank, financial institution or other person involved in the transfer of funds to or from the Blocked Accounts arising out of Administrative Agent’s payments to or indemnification of such bank, financial institution or other person. The obligations of Borrowers to reimburse Administrative Agent for such amounts pursuant to this Section 6.3 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.

(a)All Obligations shall be payable to the Administrative Agent Payment Account as provided in Section 6.3 or such other place as Administrative Agent may designate from time to time. Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall apply payments received or collected from any Borrower or Guarantor or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows:

(i) first, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor;

(ii) second, ratably, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Lenders and Issuing Bank from any Borrower or Guarantor;

(iii) third, ratably, to the payment in full of interest due in respect of any Loans (and including any Special Administrative Agent Advances);

(iv) fourth, to the payment in full of principal in respect of Special Administrative Agent Advances;

(v) fifth, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Swing Line Loans;

(vi) sixth, ratably, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Loans;

(vii)seventh, ratably, to pay or prepay any other Obligations whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Administrative Agent determines or to be held as cash collateral in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations or other contingent Obligations (but not including for this purpose any Obligations arising under or pursuant to any Bank Products); and

(viii) eighth, ratably, to pay or prepay any Obligations arising under or pursuant to Bank Products.

(b)On and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall apply payments received or collected from any Borrower or Guarantor or for the account of any Borrower or Guarantor (including the monetary proceeds of collections or of realization upon any Collateral) as follows:

(i) first, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Administrative Agent from any Borrower or Guarantor;

(ii) second, ratably, to the payment in full of any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to Lenders and Issuing Bank from any Borrower or Guarantor;

(iii) third, ratably, to the payment in full of interest due in respect of any Loans (and including any Special Administrative Agent Advances) other than Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans and the Tranche A-2 Term Loans;

(iv) fourth, to the payment in full of principal in respect of Special Administrative Agent Advances;

(v) fifth, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Swing Line Loans,

(vi) sixth, ratably, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Tranche A Revolving Loans and to be held as cash collateral in an amount equal to one hundred five (105%) percent of the Letter of Credit Accommodations,

(vii)seventh, ratably, to the payment in full of interest due in respect of the Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans;

(viii) eighth, ratably, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans;

(ix) ninth, ratably, to the payment in full of interest due in respect of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans;

(x) tenth, ratably, to the payment in full of principal in respect of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans;

(xi) eleventh, to pay or prepay any other Obligations whether or not then due, in such order and manner as Administrative Agent determines or to be held as cash collateral in connection with any contingent Obligations, other than in respect of Letter of Credit Accommodations (but not including for this purpose any Obligations arising under or pursuant to any Bank Products) and

(xii)twelfth, ratably, to pay or prepay any Obligations arising under or pursuant to Bank Products.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) unless so directed by Lead Borrower, or unless a Default or an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent shall not apply any payments which it receives to any Eurodollar Rate Loans, except (A) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable to any such Eurodollar Rate Loans or (B) in the event that there are no outstanding Base Rate Loans and (ii) to the extent any Borrower uses any proceeds of the Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral or to repay any Indebtedness used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral, payments in respect of the Obligations shall be deemed applied first to the Obligations arising from Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations that were not used for such purposes and second to the Obligations arising from Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations the proceeds of which were used to acquire rights in or the use of any Collateral in the chronological order in which such Borrower acquired such rights in or the use of such Collateral.

(d)At Administrative Agent’s option, all principal, interest, fees, costs, expenses and other charges provided for in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements may be charged directly to the loan account(s) of any Borrower maintained by Administrative Agent. Borrowers and Guarantors shall make all payments to Administrative Agent and Lenders on the Obligations free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any setoff, counterclaim, defense, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, withholding, restrictions or conditions of any kind. If after receipt of any payment of, or proceeds of Collateral applied to the payment of, any of the Obligations, Administrative Agent or any Lender is required to surrender or return such payment or proceeds to any Person for any reason, then the Obligations intended to be satisfied by such payment or proceeds shall be reinstated and continue and this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect as if such payment or proceeds had not been received by Administrative Agent or such Lender. Borrowers and Guarantors shall be liable to pay to Administrative Agent, and do hereby indemnify and hold Administrative Agent and Lenders harmless for the amount of any payments or proceeds surrendered or returned. This Section 6.4(d) shall remain effective notwithstanding any contrary action which may be taken by Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment or proceeds. This Section 6.4 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement.

. Administrative Agent and Lenders are authorized to make the Loans (including Swing Line Loans) and provide the Letter of Credit Accommodations based upon written instructions received from anyone purporting to be the chief financial officer, vice president of finance, treasurer, assistant treasurer, director of finance, corporate treasurer, vice president of treasury and corporate development, or controller of Lead Borrower or other authorized person designated by any of such persons from time to time to Administrative Agent (which may be delivered through Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal) or, at the discretion of Administrative Agent, if such Revolving Loans are necessary to satisfy any Obligations. All requests for Revolving Loans (including Swing Line Loans) or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder shall specify the date on which the requested advance is to be made or Letter of Credit Accommodations established (which day shall be a Business Day) and the amount of the requested Loan. Requests received after 12:00 p.m. Boston time on any day shall be deemed to have been made as of the opening of business on the immediately following Business Day. All Loans (including Swing Line Loans) and Letter of Credit Accommodations under this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been made to, and at the request of and for the benefit of, any Borrower or Guarantor when deposited to the credit of any Borrower or Guarantor or otherwise disbursed or established in accordance with the instructions of any Borrower or Guarantor or in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. All requests for Loans may be delivered through Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal. All requests for Loans which are not made on-line via Administrative Agent’s electronic platform or portal shall be subject to (and unless Administrative Agent elects otherwise in the exercise of its sole discretion, such requested Loans shall not be made until the completion of) Administrative Agent’s authentication process (with results satisfactory to Administrative Agent) prior to the funding of any such Loan.

. Borrowers shall use the initial proceeds of the Loans provided by Administrative Agent to Borrowers hereunder only for: (a) payments to each of the persons listed in the disbursement direction letter furnished by Borrowers to Administrative Agent on or

about the Effective Date, (b) costs, expenses and fees in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and (c) costs, expenses and fees in connection with the Nash-Finch Merger. All other Loans made or Letter of Credit Accommodations provided to or for the benefit of any Borrower pursuant to the provisions hereof shall be used by such Borrower only for general operating, working capital and other proper corporate purposes of such Borrower not otherwise prohibited by the terms hereof. None of the proceeds will be used, directly or indirectly, for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, for the purposes of reducing or retiring any indebtedness which was originally incurred to purchase or carry any Margin Stock, for any purpose which might cause any of the Loans to be considered a “purpose credit” within the meaning of Regulation U of the FRB or for any purpose that violates the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the FRB. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used, directly or to Borrowers’ knowledge, indirectly, to make any payments to a Sanctioned Entity or a Sanctioned Person, to fund any investments, loans or contributions in, or otherwise make such proceeds available to, a Sanctioned Entity or a Sanctioned Person, to fund any operations, activities or business of a Sanctioned Entity or a Sanctioned Person, or in any other manner that would result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person. No part of the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit will be used, directly or to Borrowers’ knowledge, indirectly, in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Sanctions, Anti-Corruption Laws or Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

6.7Appointment of Parent as Lead Borrower for Requesting Loans and Receipts of Loans and Statements

(a)Each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Lead Borrower to request and receive Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations pursuant to this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements from Administrative Agent or any Lender in the name or on behalf of such Borrower, to select the applicable Interest Rate for any such Loans or to take other actions contemplated as being taken by any Borrower under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Administrative Agent and Lenders may disburse the Loans to such bank account of Lead Borrower or a Borrower or otherwise make such Loans to a Borrower and provide such Letter of Credit Accommodations to a Borrower as Lead Borrower may designate or direct, without notice to any other Borrower or Obligor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Administrative Agent and Lead Borrower may at any time and from time to time require that Loans to or for the account of any Borrower be disbursed directly to an operating account of such Borrower.

(b)Lead Borrower hereby accepts the appointment by Borrowers to act for and on behalf of the other Borrowers pursuant to this Section 6.7. Lead Borrower shall ensure that the disbursement of any Loans to each Borrower requested by or paid to or for the account of Parent, or the issuance of any Letter of Credit Accommodations for a Borrower hereunder, shall be paid to or for the account of such Borrower.

(c)Each other Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably appoints and constitutes Lead Borrower to receive statements on account and all other notices from Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the Obligations or otherwise under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements and any statements or

notices sent to or received by Lead Borrower shall be deemed received by each of the other Borrowers and Guarantors.

(d) Any notice, election, representation, warranty, agreement or undertaking by or on behalf of any other Borrower or any Guarantor by Lead Borrower shall be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower or Guarantor, as the case may be, and shall be binding upon and enforceable against such Borrower or Guarantor to the same extent as if made directly by such Borrower of Guarantor.

(e)No purported termination of the appointment of Lead Borrower as agent as aforesaid shall be effective, except after ten (10) days’ prior written notice to Administrative Agent.

. Except to the extent otherwise provided in this Agreement: (a) the making and conversion of Loans shall be made among the Lenders based on their respective Pro Rata Shares as to the Loans and (b) each payment on account of any Obligations to or for the account of one or more of Lenders in respect of any Obligations due on a particular day shall be allocated among the Lenders entitled to such payments based on their respective Pro Rata Shares and shall be distributed accordingly.

(a)Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that, in addition to (and without limitation of) any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim Administrative Agent or any Lender may otherwise have, each Lender shall be entitled, at its option (but subject, as among Administrative Agent and Lenders, to the provisions of Section 12.3(b) hereof), to offset balances held by it for the account of such Borrower or Guarantor at any of its offices, in dollars or in any other currency, against any principal of or interest on any Loans owed to such Lender or any other amount payable to such Lender hereunder, that is not paid when due (regardless of whether such balances are then due to such Borrower or Guarantor), in which case it shall promptly notify Lead Borrower and Administrative Agent thereof; provided, that, such Lender’s failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity thereof.

(b)If any Lender (including Administrative Agent) shall obtain from any Borrower or Guarantor payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan owing to it or payment of any other amount under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements through the exercise of any right of setoff, banker’s lien or counterclaim or similar right or otherwise (other than from Administrative Agent as provided herein), and, as a result of such payment, such Lender shall have received more than its Pro Rata Share of the principal of the Loans or more than its share of such other amounts then due hereunder or thereunder by any Borrower or Guarantor to such Lender than the percentage thereof received by any other Lender, it shall promptly pay to Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Lenders, the amount of such excess and simultaneously purchase from such other Lenders a participation in the Loans or such other amounts, respectively, owing to such other Lenders (or such interest due thereon, as the case may be) in such amounts, and make such other adjustments from time to time as shall be equitable, to the end that all Lenders shall share the benefit of such excess payment (net of any expenses that may be incurred by such Lender in obtaining or preserving such excess payment)

in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares or as otherwise agreed by Lenders. To such end all Lenders shall make appropriate adjustments among themselves (by the resale of participation sold or otherwise) if such payment is rescinded or must otherwise be restored.

(c)Each Borrower and Guarantor agrees that any Lender purchasing a participation (or direct interest) as provided in this Section may exercise, in a manner consistent with this Section, all rights of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaim or similar rights with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct holder of Loans or other amounts (as the case may be) owing to such Lender in the amount of such participation.

(d)Nothing contained herein shall require any Lender to exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien, counterclaims or similar rights or shall affect the right of any Lender to exercise, and retain the benefits of exercising, any such right with respect to any other Indebtedness or obligation of any Borrower or Guarantor. If, under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, any Lender receives a secured claim in lieu of a setoff to which this Section applies, such Lender shall, to the extent practicable, assign such rights to Administrative Agent for the benefit of Lenders and, in any event, exercise its rights in respect of such secured claim in a manner consistent with the rights of Lenders entitled under this Section to share in the benefits of any recovery on such secured claim.

(a)In order to administer the Credit Facility in an efficient manner and to minimize the transfer of funds between Administrative Agent and Lenders , Administrative Agent may, at its option, subject to the terms of this Section, make available, on behalf of Lenders, including the Swing Line Lender, the full amount of the Loans requested or charged to any Borrower’s loan account(s) or otherwise to be advanced by Lenders pursuant to the terms hereof, without requirement of prior notice to Lenders of the proposed Loans.

(b)With respect to all Revolving Loans made by Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders as provided in this Section, the amount of each Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans shall be computed weekly, and shall be adjusted upward or downward on the basis of the amount of the outstanding Loans as of 5:00 p.m. Boston time on the Business Day immediately preceding the date of each settlement computation; provided, that, Administrative Agent retains the absolute right at any time or from time to time to make the above described adjustments at intervals more frequent than weekly, but in no event more than twice in any week. With respect to Swing Line Loans made by Swing Line Lender (or Administrative Agent on behalf of Swing Line Lender), Swing Line Lender (or Administrative Agent on behalf of Swing Line Lender) may settle on the Swing Line Loans from time to time as it determines, but not less frequently than once each week. Administrative Agent (or Swing Line Lender as to Swing Line Loans) shall deliver to each of the Tranche A Lenders and Tranche A-1 Lenders after the end of each week, or at such lesser period or periods as Administrative Agent (or Swing Line Lender as to Swing Line Loans) shall determine, a summary statement of the amount of outstanding Revolving Loans for such period (such week or lesser period or periods being hereinafter referred to as a “Settlement Period”). If the summary statement is sent by Administrative Agent (or Swing Line Lender in the case of Swing Line Loans) and received by a Lender prior to 12:00 p.m. Boston time, then such Lender shall make the settlement transfer

described in this Section by no later than 3:00 p.m. Boston time on the same Business Day and if received by a Lender after 12:00 p.m. Boston time, then such Lender shall make the settlement transfer by not later than 3:00 p.m. Boston time on the next Business Day following the date of receipt. If, as of the end of any Settlement Period, the amount of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans is more than such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans as of the end of the previous Settlement Period, then such Lender shall forthwith (but in no event later than the time set forth in the preceding sentence) transfer to Administrative Agent by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of the increase. Alternatively, if the amount of a Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans in any Settlement Period is less than the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans for the previous Settlement Period, Administrative Agent shall forthwith transfer to such Lender by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of the decrease. Each Lender shall forthwith (but in no event later than the time set forth in the preceding sentence) transfer to Swing Line Lender (or upon its request to Administrative Agent) by wire transfer in immediately available funds the amount of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Swing Line Loans as set forth in the summary statement provided to such Lender as provided above. Amounts transferred to Swing Line Lender (or Administrative Agent as the case may be) in respect to a settlement of Swing Line Loans shall be applied to the payment of the Swing Line Loans and shall constitute Tranche A Revolving Loans of such Lenders. The obligation of each of the Lenders to transfer such funds and effect such settlement shall be irrevocable and unconditional and without recourse to or warranty by Administrative Agent. Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees to mark its books and records at the end of each Settlement Period to show at all times the dollar amount of its Pro Rata Share of the outstanding Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations. Each Lender shall only be entitled to receive interest on its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loans to the extent such Revolving Loans have been funded by such Lender. Because the Administrative Agent on behalf of Lenders may be advancing and/or may be repaid Revolving Loans prior to the time when Lenders will actually advance and/or be repaid such Revolving Loans, interest with respect to Revolving Loans shall be allocated by Administrative Agent in accordance with the amount of Revolving Loans actually advanced by and repaid to each Lender and the Administrative Agent and shall accrue from and including the date such Revolving Loans are so advanced to but excluding the date such Revolving Loans are either repaid by Borrowers or actually settled with the applicable Lender as described in this Section.

(c)To the extent that Administrative Agent has made any such amounts available and the settlement described above shall not yet have occurred, upon repayment of any Revolving Loans by a Borrower, Administrative Agent may apply such amounts repaid directly to any amounts made available by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section. In lieu of weekly or more frequent settlements, Administrative Agent may, at its option, at any time require each Lender to provide Administrative Agent with immediately available funds representing its Pro Rata Share of each Revolving Loan, prior to Administrative Agent’s disbursement of such Revolving Loan to Borrower. In such event, all Revolving Loans under this Agreement shall be made by the Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares. No Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make a Revolving Loan requested hereunder nor shall the Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of the default by any other Lender in the other Lender’s obligation to make a Revolving Loan hereunder.

(d)If Administrative Agent is not funding a particular Revolving Loan to or for the benefit of a Borrower pursuant to Sections 6.10(a) and 6.10(b) on any day, but is requiring each Lender to provide Administrative Agent with immediately available funds on the date of such Revolving Loan, Administrative Agent may assume that each Lender will make available to Administrative Agent such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Loan requested or otherwise made on such day and Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, but shall not be obligated to, cause a corresponding amount to be made available to or for the benefit of such Borrower on such day. If Administrative Agent makes such corresponding amount available to a Borrower and such corresponding amount is not in fact made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Administrative Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Administrative Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Administrative Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Administrative Agent’s demand, at the highest Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Base Rate Loans. During the period in which such Lender has not paid such corresponding amount to Administrative Agent, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements, the amount so advanced by Administrative Agent to or for the benefit of any Borrower shall, for all purposes hereof, be a Revolving Loan made by Administrative Agent for its own account.

(e)Upon any failure by a Lender to pay Administrative Agent (or Swing Line Lender) pursuant to the settlement described in Section 6.10(b) above or to pay Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 6.10(c) or 6.10(d), Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter notify Lead Borrower of such failure and Borrowers shall pay such corresponding principal amount to Administrative Agent for its own account within five (5) Business Days of Lead Borrower’s receipt of such notice. The term “Defaulting Lender” shall mean (i) any Lender that has failed to fund any portion of the Loans, participations in Letter of Credit Accommodations or participations in Swing Line Loans required to be funded by it hereunder within two (2) Business Days of the date required to be funded by it hereunder, or has otherwise failed to pay over to Administrative Agent or any other Lender any other amount required to be paid by it hereunder within two (2) Business Days of the date when due, and such failure has not been cured by the making of such funding or payment over to Administrative Agent or such Lender by such Lender within such two (2) Business Day period, unless such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Lead Borrower in writing that such failure is the result of such Lender’s good faith determination that one or more conditions precedent to funding (each of which conditions precedent, together with any applicable default, shall be specifically identified in such writing) has not been satisfied (except to the extent that such Lender may be required to make the payment hereunder notwithstanding the failure of a condition precedent), (ii) any Lender that has notified Administrative Agent, any Lender, Issuing Bank, or any Borrower or Guarantor in writing that it will not or does not intend to comply with any of its funding obligations under this Agreement (and such Lender has not retracted such notification in writing) or has made a public statement in writing to the effect that it will not or does not intend to comply with its funding obligations under this Agreement (and such Lender has not retracted such public statement in

writing), unless such writing or statement indicates that such position is based on such Lender’s good faith determination that one or more conditions precedent to funding (each of which conditions precedent, together with any applicable default, shall be specifically identified in such writing) has not been satisfied or (iii) any Lender that becomes or is insolvent or has a parent company that has become or is insolvent or becomes the subject of a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding, or has a receiver, conservator, trustee or custodian appointed for it, or has taken any action in furtherance of, or indicating its consent to, approval of or acquiescence in any such proceeding or appointment and has not obtained all required orders, approvals or consents of any court or other Governmental Authority to continue to fulfill its obligations hereunder, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent and Lead Borrower; provided, that, a Lender shall not be a Defaulting Lender solely by virtue of the ownership or acquisition of any equity interest in that Lender or any direct or indirect parent company thereof by a Governmental Authority so long as such ownership does not result in or provide such Lender with immunity from the jurisdiction of courts within the United States or from the enforcement of judgments or writs of attachment on its assets or permit such Lender (or such Governmental Authority) to reject, repudiate, disavow or disaffirm any contracts or agreement made with such Lender.

(f)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of Required Lenders, Required Tranche A Lenders, Required Tranche A-1 Lenders, Required Tranche A-2 Lenders and Supermajority Lenders.

(ii) Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 10.1 or otherwise) or received by Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 6.4(d) shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to provide cash collateral for the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 6.10(i) below; fourth, as Lead Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing), to the funding of any Revolving Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by Administrative Agent and Lead Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (A) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Revolving Loans (including Swing Line Loans and Special Administrative Agent Advances) under this Agreement and (B) provide cash collateral for the benefit of Issuing Banks with respect to future Fronting Exposure of Issuing Banks; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to Lenders, the Issuing Banks or Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, any Issuing Bank or Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such

Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, to the payment of any amounts owing to Parent as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Parent against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided, that, if (A) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Revolving Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (B) such Revolving Loans were made or the related Letter of Credit Accommodations were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Revolving Loans of, and Letter of Credit Accommodations owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Revolving Loans of, or Letter of Credit Accommodations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Obligations in respect of Letter of Credit Accommodations and Swing Line Loans are held by the Tranche A Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to Section 6.10(f)(iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to Section 6.10(i) below shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any unused line fee under Section 3.2(a) hereof for any period during which that Tranche A Lender or Tranche A-1 Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrowers shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to such Defaulting Lender).

(B) Each Defaulting Lender that is a Tranche A Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees under Section 2.4(b) hereof for any period during which that Tranche A Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Pro Rata Share of the stated amount of Letter of Credit Accommodations for which it has provided cash collateral pursuant to Section 6.10(i) below.

(C) With respect to any unused line fee or letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, Borrowers shall (1) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Obligations in respect of Letter of Credit Accommodations or Swing Line Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (2) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s or Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (3) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee.

(iv) All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Accommodations and Swing Line Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting

Lenders who are Tranche A Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that (A) the conditions set forth in Section 4.2 hereof are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (B) such reallocation does not cause the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans and participations in Letter of Credit Accommodations, Swing Line Loans and Special Administrative Agent Advances of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(v)If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (A) first, prepay Swing Line Loans in an amount equal to the Swing Line Lender’s Fronting Exposure and (B) second, provide cash collateral for the Issuing Banks’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with Section 6.10(i) below.

(g)If Borrowers, Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender and Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Revolving Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Accommodations and Swing Line Loans to be held pro rata by the Tranche A Lenders in accordance with the Tranche A Commitments (without giving effect to Section 6.10(a)(iv) above), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that, (i) no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and (ii) except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(h)So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swing Line Lender shall not be required to fund any Swing Line Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect to such Swing Line Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Letter of Credit Accommodations unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.

(i)At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender that is a Tranche A Lender, within one (1) Business Day following the written request of Administrative Agent or any Issuing Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent), Borrowers shall provide cash collateral to secure the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Banks with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 6.10(f)(iv) above and any cash collateral provided by

such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than one hundred five (105%) percent of the Fronting Exposure of the Issuing Banks.

(i) Borrowers, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender that is a Tranche A Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such cash collateral as security for such Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Obligations in connection with Letter of Credit Accommodations, to be applied pursuant to clause (i)(ii) below. If at any time Administrative Agent determines that such cash collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than Administrative Agent and Issuing Banks as herein provided (other than liens permitted under Section 9.8 hereof), or that the total amount of such cash collateral is less than the amount specified above, Borrowers shall, promptly upon demand by Administrative Agent, pay or provide to Administrative Agent additional cash collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any cash collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, cash collateral provided under this Section in respect of Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s (which is a Tranche A Lender) obligation to fund participations in respect of Obligations in connection with Letter of Credit Accommodations (including, as to cash collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the cash collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.

(iii) Cash collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Bank’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as cash collateral pursuant to this Section following (A) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or (B) the determination by Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank that there exists excess cash collateral; provided that, (1) the Person providing cash collateral and each Issuing Bank may agree that cash collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations and (2) to the extent that such cash collateral was provided by Borrowers, such cash collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Financing Agreements.

(j)Lead Borrower and Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time that there is a Defaulting Lender, and upon the exercise by either Lead Borrower or Administrative Agent of such right, such Defaulting Lender shall have the obligation, to sell, assign and transfer to an Eligible Transferee designated by Lead Borrower and approved by Administrative Agent or designated by Administrative Agent after consultation with Lead Borrower, the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender and all rights and interests of such Defaulting Lender pursuant thereto. Lead Borrower or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall provide the Defaulting Lender (and the Lead Borrower or the Administrative Agent as the case may be) with prior written notice of its intent to exercise its right under this Section, which notice shall specify the date on which such purchase and sale shall occur. Such purchase and sale shall be pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance (whether or not executed by the Defaulting Lender), except that on the date of such purchase and sale, the

Eligible Transferee specified by Lead Borrower and approved by Administrative Agent or Administrative Agent, shall pay to the Defaulting Lender (except as Administrative Agent and such Defaulting Lender may otherwise agree) the amount equal to: (i) the principal balance of the Loans held by the Defaulting Lender outstanding as of the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding the effective date of such purchase and sale, plus (ii) amounts accrued and unpaid in respect of interest and fees payable to the Defaulting Lender to the effective date of the purchase (but in no event shall the Defaulting Lender be deemed entitled to any early termination fee), minus (iii) the amount of the closing fee received by the Defaulting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof or of any of the other Financing Agreements multiplied by the fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months remaining in the then current term of the Credit Facility and the denominator of which is the number of months in the then current term thereof. Such purchase and sale shall be effective on the date of the payment of such amount to the Defaulting Lender and the Commitment of the Defaulting Lender shall terminate on such date.

(k)Nothing in this Section or elsewhere in this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall be deemed to require Administrative Agent to advance funds on behalf of any Lender or to relieve any Lender from its obligation to fulfill its Commitment hereunder or to prejudice any rights that any Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by any Lender hereunder in fulfilling its Commitment.

(a)Any and all payments by or on account of any of the Obligations shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges or withholdings of any kind imposed by any Governmental Authority with respect to such payments, excluding (i) in the case of each Lender, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent (A) duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges, or withholdings of any kind measured by its net income, and franchise taxes imposed on it, by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision thereof) under the laws of which such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) is incorporated or otherwise organized or in which its principal office is located or, in the case of any Lender, in which its applicable lending office is located and (B) any United States withholding taxes payable with respect to payments under the Financing Agreements under laws (including any statute, treaty or regulation) in effect on the Effective Date (or, in the case of an Eligible Transferee, the date of the Assignment and Acceptance) applicable to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent, as the case may be, but not excluding any United States withholding taxes payable as a result of any change in such laws occurring after the Effective Date (or the date of such Assignment and Acceptance) (ii) in the case of each Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent, duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges or withholdings of any kind imposed on it as a result of a present or former connection between such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and the jurisdiction imposing such duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges or withholdings but excluding any such connection arising from the activities of such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) pursuant to or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements including but not limited to, executing delivering or performing its obligations or receiving a payment under or enforcing this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and (iii)

any United States federal withholding taxes imposed under FATCA (all such non-excluded duties, taxes, levies, imposts, fees, deductions, charges, withholdings and liabilities being hereinafter referred to as “Taxes”).

(b)Subject to the second to last sentence of Section 6.11(g), if any Taxes shall be required by law to be deducted from or in respect of any sum payable in respect of the Obligations to any Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (i)the sum payable shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 6.11), such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall make such deductions, (iii)the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall pay the full amount deducted to the relevant taxing authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law and (iv)the relevant Borrower or Guarantor shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence of such payment.

(c)In addition, each Borrower and Guarantor agrees to pay any present or future stamp or documentary taxes or any other excise or property taxes, charges or similar levies of the United States or any political subdivision thereof or any applicable foreign jurisdiction, and all liabilities with respect thereto, in each case arising from any payment made hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements or from the execution, delivery or registration of, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements (collectively, “Other Taxes”).

(d)Subject to the second to last sentence of Section 6.11(g), each Borrower and Guarantor shall indemnify each Lender, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent for the full amount of Taxes and Other Taxes (including any Taxes and Other Taxes imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 6.11) paid by such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) and any liability (including for penalties, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally asserted. This indemnification shall be made within thirty (30) days from the date such Lender, Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent (as the case may be) makes written demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to Lead Borrower by a Lender, an Issuing Bank (with a copy to Administrative Agent) or by Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e)As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Borrower or Guarantor, such Borrower or Guarantor shall furnish to Administrative Agent, at its address referred to herein, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof.

(f)Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreements of any Borrower or Guarantor hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements, the agreements and obligations of such Borrower or Guarantor contained in this Section 6.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Obligations.

(g)Any Foreign Lender shall, on the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (whether as an assignee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Sections 13.7(a) or 13.7(f) or otherwise), or upon any change in its lending office, deliver to Lead Borrower and Administrative Agent: (i)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming exemption from, or a reduction to, withholding tax under an income tax treaty, or any successor form, (ii)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI claiming exemption from withholding because the income is effectively connection with a U.S. trade or business or any successor form, (iii)in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Sections 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code, (A)a certificate of the Lender to the effect that such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of a Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code or a “controlled foreign corporation” described and Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code and (B)duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN claiming exemption from withholding under the portfolio interest exemption or any successor form or (iv)any other applicable form, certificate or document prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in United States withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit a Borrower to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Unless Lead Borrower and Administrative Agent have received forms or other documents satisfactory to them indicating that payments hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements to or for a Foreign Lender are not subject to United States withholding tax or are subject to such tax at a rate reduced by an applicable tax treaty, Borrowers, Guarantors or Administrative Agent shall withhold amounts required to be withheld by applicable requirements of law from such payments at the applicable statutory rate. Borrowers and Guarantors shall not be required to indemnify any Foreign Lender or to pay any additional amounts to any Foreign Lender in respect of U.S. withholding tax pursuant Section 6.11(b) or 6.11(d) above to the extent that the obligation to pay such additional amounts would not have arisen but for a failure by such Foreign Lender to comply with the provisions of this Section 6.11(g). Should a Lender become subject to Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form required hereunder, Borrowers and Guarantors shall, at such Lender’s expense, take such steps as such Lender shall reasonably request to assist such Lender to recover such Taxes.

(h)Any Lender claiming any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 6.11 shall use its reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its applicable lending office if the making of such a change would avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, any such additional amounts that would be payable or may thereafter accrue and would not, in the sole determination of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous in any material respect to such Lender.

(i)If the Borrowers or Guarantors pay any additional amount pursuant to this Section 6.11 with respect to any Lender, such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to obtain a refund of tax or credit against its tax liabilities on account of such payment; provided that, such Lender shall have no obligation to use such reasonable efforts to obtain a credit if it is in an excess foreign tax credit position and shall have no obligation to use such reasonable efforts if it believes in good faith that claiming a refund or credit would cause adverse tax consequences to it. In the event that such Lender receives such a refund or credit, such Lender shall pay to the Borrowers or Guarantors an amount that such Lender reasonably determines is equal to the net

tax benefit obtained by such Lender as a result of such payment by the Borrowers or Guarantors, as applicable, so as to leave such Lender in no worse position that in which it would have been in if payment of the relevant additional amount had not been made. Nothing contained in this Section 6.11(i) shall require a Lender to disclose or detail the basis of its calculation of the amount of any tax benefit or any other amount or the basis of its determination referred to in the proviso to the first sentence of this Section 6.11(j) to the Borrowers, Guarantors or any other party.

(j)If a payment made to Administrative Agent or a Lender under any Financing Agreement would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if Administrative Agent or 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), Administrative Agent or such Lender shall deliver to Lead Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Lead Borrower or Administrative 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 Lead Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for Borrowers and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine, as applicable, that Administrative Agent or such Lender has complied with Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (j), the term “FATCA” shall include any amendments to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

. The obligation of each Lender hereunder is several, and no Lender shall be responsible for the obligation or commitment of any other Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and no action taken by the Lenders pursuant hereto or thereto shall be deemed to constitute the Lenders to be a partnership, an association, a joint venture or any other kind of entity. The amounts payable at any time hereunder to each Lender shall be a separate and independent debt, and subject to Section 12.3 hereof, each Lender shall be entitled to protect and enforce its rights arising out of this Agreement and it shall not be necessary for any other Lender to be joined as an additional party in any proceeding for such purpose.

. Borrowers and Guarantors, or any of their Subsidiaries, may (but no such Person is required to) request that the Bank Product Providers provide or arrange for such Person to obtain Bank Products from Bank Product Providers, and each Bank Product Provider may, in its sole discretion, provide or arrange for such Person to obtain the requested Bank Products. Borrowers and Guarantors or any of their Subsidiaries that obtain Bank Products shall indemnify and hold Administrative Agent, each Lender and their respective Affiliates harmless from any and all obligations now or hereafter owing to any other Person by any Bank Product Provider in connection with any Bank Products other than for gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of any such indemnified Person. This Section 6.13 shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination of this Agreement. Borrower and its Subsidiaries acknowledge and agree that the obtaining of Bank Products from Bank Product Providers (a) is in the sole discretion of such Bank Product Provider, and (b) is subject to all rules and regulations of such Bank Product Provider.

(a)Borrowers shall provide Administrative Agent with the following documents in a form reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent:

(i)as soon as possible after the end of each fiscal four (4) week period of Borrowers and Guarantors determined in accordance with the current accounting practices of Borrowers and Guarantors as of the Effective Date (but in any event within ten (10) Business Days after the end thereof), or weekly (but in any event by no later than Wednesday of each week) at any time that Excess Availability is less than an amount equal to fifteen (15%) percent of the Total Borrowing Base (and in such event the delivery of Borrowing Base Certificates on a weekly basis shall continue for not less than four (4) consecutive weeks), or more frequently as Administrative Agent may request at any time that a Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred, a Borrowing Base Certificate setting forth the calculation of each of the Tranche A Borrowing Base, Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base and Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base as of the last Business Day of the immediately preceding period as to the Accounts, Inventory, Prescription Files, unaffixed Tax Stamps, Equipment, Rolling Stock and Real Property duly completed and executed by the chief financial officer, vice president of finance, corporate treasurer or controller of Parent, together with all schedules required pursuant to the terms of the Borrowing Base Certificate duly completed (including a recap of all Accounts created, collections received and credit memos issued for the immediately preceding period);

(b)Nothing contained in any Borrowing Base Certificate shall be deemed to limit, impair or otherwise affect the rights of Administrative Agent contained herein and in the event of any conflict or inconsistency between the calculation of the Tranche A Borrowing Base, the Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base or the Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base as set forth in any Borrowing Base Certificate and as determined by Administrative Agent in good faith, the determination of Administrative Agent shall govern and be conclusive and binding upon Borrowers and Guarantors. Without limiting the foregoing, Borrowers shall furnish to Administrative Agent any information which Administrative Agent may reasonably request regarding the determination and calculation of any of the amounts set forth in any Borrowing Base Certificate. Each of the Tranche A Borrowing Base, the Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base or the Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base may be adjusted based on the information set forth in the reports received by Administrative Agent under this Section 7.1. If any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s records or reports of the Collateral are prepared or maintained by an accounting service, contractor, shipper or other agent, such Borrower and Guarantor hereby irrevocably authorizes such service, contractor, shipper or agent to deliver such records, reports, and related documents to Administrative Agent and to follow Administrative Agent’s instructions with respect to further services at any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing.

(a)Borrowers shall notify Administrative Agent promptly of: (i) any material delay in any Borrower’s or performance of any of its material obligations to any Account Debtor or the assertion of any material claims, offsets, defenses or counterclaims by any Account Debtor, or any material disputes with Account Debtors, or any settlement, adjustment or compromise thereof, (ii) all material adverse information known to any Borrower or Guarantor relating to the financial condition of any Account Debtor reasonably likely to adversely impact the collectability or enforceability of an Account, (iii) any event or circumstance which, to the best of any Borrower’s or Guarantor’s knowledge, would cause Administrative Agent to consider any then existing material Accounts as no longer constituting Eligible Accounts, (iv) any notice of a material default by any Borrower under any of the Credit Card Agreements or of any default which might result in the Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor ceasing to make payments or suspending payments to any Borrower, (v) any notice from any Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor that such person is ceasing or suspending, or will cease or suspend, any present or future payments due or to become due to any Borrower from such person, or that such person is terminating or will terminate any of the Credit Card Agreements, and (vi) the failure of any Borrower to comply with any material terms of the Credit Card Agreements or any terms thereof which might result in the Credit Card Issuer or Credit Card Processor ceasing or suspending payments to any Borrower. No credit, discount, allowance or extension or agreement for any of the foregoing in excess of $100,000 shall be granted to any Account Debtor without Administrative Agent’s consent, except in the ordinary course of a Borrower’s or Guarantor’s business in accordance with its practices and policies previously disclosed in writing to Administrative Agent and except as set forth in the schedules delivered to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 7.1(a) above. So long as no Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers and Guarantors shall settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with any Account Debtor. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent shall, at its option, have the exclusive right to settle, adjust or compromise any claim, offset, counterclaim or dispute with Account Debtors or grant any credits, discounts or allowances.

(b)With respect to each Account: (i) the amounts shown on any invoice delivered to Administrative Agent or schedule thereof delivered to Administrative Agent shall be true and complete in all material respects, (ii) no payments shall be made thereon except payments immediately delivered to Blocked Accounts (or other deposit accounts in the case of Medicare Accounts and Medicaid Accounts identified to Administrative Agent that are used exclusively for handling payments or other remittances in respect of such Accounts), in each case, maintained in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (iii) no credit, discount, allowance or extension or agreement for any of the foregoing shall be granted to any Account Debtor except as reported to Administrative Agent in accordance with this Agreement and except for credits, discounts, allowances or extensions made or given in the ordinary course of each Borrower’s business in accordance with practices and policies previously disclosed to Administrative Agent, (iv) there shall be no setoffs, deductions, contras, defenses, counterclaims or disputes existing or asserted with respect thereto except as reported to Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (v) none of the transactions giving rise thereto will violate any applicable foreign, Federal, State or local laws or regulations, all documentation relating thereto will be legally sufficient under such laws and regulations and all such documentation will be legally enforceable in accordance with its terms.

(c)No Borrower or Guarantor shall purchase goods from suppliers and deliver goods that give rise to Military Receivables, except Grocery Supply Acquisition Corp. and Nash Finch, provided, that, Lead Borrower may, subject to and in accordance with the terms hereof, establish a separate subsidiary that is only engaged in the business of purchasing goods from suppliers and delivering goods giving rise to Military Receivables, provided, that, such separate subsidiary or subsidiaries shall be a Borrower hereunder and shall satisfy all of the requirements of Section 9.24, including the execution and delivery of such agreements and documents as Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection therewith.

(d)Administrative Agent shall have the right at any time or times, in Administrative Agent’s name or in the name of a nominee of Administrative Agent, to verify the validity, amount or any other matter relating to any Receivables or other Collateral, by mail, telephone, facsimile transmission or otherwise.

Each Borrower and Guarantor shall take prompt action to respond to any material non-compliance with any of the Environmental Laws and shall keep Administrative Agent reasonably informed regarding the status of such response; provided, that, no Borrower or Guarantor shall be required to undertake any such cleanup, removal, remedial or other action to the extent that its obligation to do so is being contested in good faith and by proper proceedings diligently pursued and available to such Borrower or Guarantor and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside on its books in accordance with GAAP.

(c)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, whenever Administrative Agent reasonably determines that there is material non-compliance, or any condition that requires any action by or on behalf of any Borrower or Guarantor in order to avoid any material non‑compliance, with any Environmental Law, Borrowers shall, at Administrative Agent’s request and Borrowers’ expense: (i) cause an independent environmental engineer reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent to conduct such tests of the site where material non-compliance or alleged material non‑compliance with such Environmental Laws has occurred as to such material non-compliance and prepare and deliver to Administrative Agent a report as to such material non-compliance setting forth the results of such tests, a proposed plan for responding to any environmental problems described therein, and an estimate of the costs thereof and (ii) provide to Administrative Agent a supplemental report of such engineer whenever the

. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, and shall cause any Subsidiary to, duly pay and discharge when due all material taxes, assessments, contributions and governmental charges upon or against it or its properties or assets, except for taxes, assessments, contributions and governmental charges the validity of which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings diligently pursued and available to such Borrower, Guarantor or Subsidiary, as the case may be, and with respect to which adequate reserves have been set aside on its books and Administrative Agent may, at its option, establish any Reserves in respect thereof to the extent that such taxes give rise to a security interest, lien or other claim that is pari passu or has priority over the security interests of Administrative Agent or that would otherwise impair the ability of Administrative Agent to realize upon the Collateral.

(a)Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, and shall cause any Subsidiary to, at all times, maintain with financially sound and reputable insurers insurance with respect to the Collateral against loss or damage and all other insurance of the kinds and in the amounts customarily insured against or carried by corporations of established reputation engaged in the same or similar businesses and similarly situated. Said policies of insurance shall be reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent as to form, amount and insurer. Borrowers and Guarantors shall furnish certificates, policies or endorsements to Administrative Agent as Administrative Agent shall reasonably require as proof of such insurance, and, if any Borrower or Guarantor fails to do so, Administrative Agent is authorized, but not required, to obtain such insurance at the expense of Borrowers. All policies shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent of any cancellation or reduction of coverage and that Administrative Agent may act as attorney for each Borrower and Guarantor in obtaining (if any Borrower or Guarantor fails to do so), and at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, adjusting, settling, amending and canceling such insurance. Borrowers and Guarantors shall cause Administrative Agent to be named as a loss payee and an additional insured (but without any liability for any premiums) under such insurance policies and Borrowers and Guarantors shall obtain non-contributory lender’s loss payable endorsements to all insurance policies in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent. Such lender’s loss payable endorsements shall specify that the proceeds of such insurance shall be payable to

Administrative Agent as its interests may appear and further specify that Administrative Agent and Lenders shall be paid regardless of any act or omission by any Borrower, Guarantor or any of its or their Affiliates. Without limiting any other rights of Administrative Agent or Lenders, any insurance proceeds received by Administrative Agent at any time may be applied to payment of the Obligations, whether or not then due, in any order and in such manner as Administrative Agent may determine. Upon application of such proceeds to the Loans, Loans may be available subject and pursuant to the terms hereof to be used for the costs of repair or replacement of the Collateral lost or damages resulting in the payment of such insurance proceeds.

(b)If any portion of any Collateral is at any time located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (or any successor agency) as a “flood hazard area” with respect to which flood insurance has been made available under any of the Flood Insurance Laws, then Borrowers shall (i) with respect to such Collateral maintain with responsible and reputable insurance companies reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, flood insurance in an amount and otherwise sufficient to comply with all applicable rules and regulations promulgated pursuant to the Flood Insurance Laws and (ii) deliver to Administrative Agent evidence of such compliance in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent and upon any Lender’s request, Lead Borrower shall deliver such evidence of compliance to such Lender. All premiums on any of the insurance referred to in this Section 9.5(b) shall be paid when due by Borrowers and if requested by Administrative Agent, summaries of the policies shall be provided to Administrative Agent annually or as it may otherwise reasonably request. Without limiting the rights of Administrative Agent provided for above, if Borrowers fail to obtain or maintain any insurance required under the Flood Insurance Laws, Administrative Agent may obtain it at Borrowers’ expense. By purchasing any of the insurance referred to in this Section 9.5(b), Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have waived any Default or Event of Default arising from Borrowers’ failure to maintain such insurance or pay any such premiums in respect thereof.

(a)Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, and shall cause any Subsidiary to, keep proper books and records of all financial transactions and matters involving the assets and the business of such Borrower, Guarantor and its Subsidiaries in accordance with GAAP. Borrowers and Guarantors shall furnish to Administrative Agent and Lenders within a reasonable time all such financial and other information as Administrative Agent shall reasonably request relating to the Collateral and the assets, business and operations of Borrowers and Guarantors, and Borrower shall notify the auditors and accountants of Borrowers and Guarantors that Administrative Agent is authorized to obtain such information directly from them; provided, that, so long as no Default or Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and be continuing, Administrative Agent shall not exercise its right under this Section 9.6 to contact the accountants and auditors directly to obtain information from them not relating to the Collateral without the prior approval of Lead Borrower, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

(d)In the event any Borrower receives a Food Security Act Notice, such Borrower shall pay the related invoice within the payment terms specified therein and notify Administrative Agent of such receipt; provided, that, such invoice may remain unpaid if, and only so long as (i) appropriate legal or administrative action has been commenced in good faith and is being diligently pursued or defended by such Borrower, (ii) adequate reserves with respect to such contest are maintained on the books of such Borrower, in accordance with GAAP, (iii) Administrative Agent shall have established a Reserve in an amount at least equal to the amount claimed to be due by such vendor under the relevant invoice, (iv) such Borrower shall promptly pay or discharge such contested invoice and all additional charges, interest, penalties and expenses, if any, and shall deliver to Administrative Agent evidence reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent of such payment, if such contest is terminated or discontinued adversely to Borrower or the conditions set forth in this Section 9.20(d) are no longer met.

(e)Each Borrower shall obtain Administrative Agent’s written consent prior to purchasing any Farm Products from a Person who produces such Farm Products in a state with a central filing system certified by the United States Secretary of Agriculture, and in the event that such Borrower receives such consent, such Borrower shall immediately register, as a buyer, with the Secretary of State of such state (or the designated system operator). Each Borrower shall forward promptly to Administrative Agent a copy of such registration as well as a copy of all relevant portions of the master list periodically distributed by any such Secretary of State (or the designated system operator).

Each Borrower shall also provide to Administrative Agent not later than the fifth (5^th) day of each month, true and correct copies of all state filings recorded in any such central filing system in respect of a Person from whom a Borrower has purchased Farm Products within the preceding twelve (12) months.

. If any Borrower or Guarantor hereafter acquires any Real Property, fixtures or any other property that is of the kind or nature described in the Mortgages and such Real Property, fixtures or other property is adjacent to, contiguous with or necessary or related to or used in connection with any Real Property then subject to a Mortgage, or if such Real Property is not adjacent to, contiguous with or related to or used in connection with such Real Property, then if such Real Property, fixtures or other property at any location (or series of adjacent, contiguous or related locations, and regardless of the number of parcels) has a fair market value in an amount equal to or greater than $2,500,000 (or if a Default or Event of Default exists, then regardless of the fair market value of such assets), without limiting any other rights of Administrative Agent or any Lender, or duties or obligations of any Borrower or Guarantor, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request, such Borrower or Guarantor shall execute and deliver to Administrative Agent a mortgage, deed of trust or deed to secure debt, as Administrative Agent may determine, in form and substance substantially similar to the Mortgages and as to any provisions relating to specific state laws satisfactory to Administrative Agent and in form appropriate for recording in the real estate records of the jurisdiction in which such Real Property or other property is located granting to Administrative Agent a first and only lien and mortgage on and security interest in such Real Property, fixtures or other property (except as such Borrower or Guarantor would otherwise be permitted to incur hereunder or under

the Mortgages or as otherwise consented to in writing by Administrative Agent) and such other agreements, documents and instruments as Administrative Agent may require in connection therewith.

. Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay to Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender and Lenders on demand all out-of-pocket costs, expenses, filing fees and taxes paid or payable in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery, recording, syndication, administration, collection, liquidation, enforcement and defense of the Obligations, Administrative Agent’s rights in the Collateral, this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and all other documents related hereto or thereto, including any amendments, supplements or consents which may hereafter be contemplated (whether or not executed) or entered into in respect hereof and thereof, including: (a) all costs and expenses of filing or recording (including Uniform Commercial Code financing statement filing taxes and fees, documentary taxes, intangibles taxes and mortgage recording taxes and fees, if applicable); (b) costs and expenses and fees for insurance premiums, environmental audits, title insurance premiums, surveys, assessments, engineering reports and inspections, appraisal fees and search fees (including OFAC/PEP searches), costs and expenses of remitting loan proceeds, collecting checks and other items of payment, and establishing and maintaining the Blocked Accounts, together with Administrative Agent’s customary charges and fees with respect thereto; (c) charges, fees or expenses charged by any bank or issuer in connection with the Letter of Credit Accommodations; (d) costs and expenses of preserving and protecting the Collateral; (e) costs and expenses paid or incurred in connection with obtaining payment of the Obligations, enforcing the security interests and liens of Administrative Agent, selling or otherwise realizing upon the Collateral, and otherwise enforcing the provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements or defending any claims made or threatened against Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby (including preparations for and consultations concerning any such matters); (f) all fees and charges, together with out-of-pocket expenses and costs, heretofore and from time to time hereafter incurred by Administrative Agent during the course of periodic field examinations of the Collateral and such Borrower’s or Guarantor’s operations; and (g) the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel (including legal assistants) to Administrative Agent in connection with any of the foregoing.

. None of the requesting or borrowing of the Loans or the requesting or issuance, extension or renewal of any Letter of Credit Accommodations or the use of the proceeds of any thereof will violate the Trading With the Enemy Act (50 U.S.C. §1 et seq., as amended) (the “Trading With the Enemy Act”) or any of the foreign assets control regulations of the United States Treasury Department (31 C.F.R., Subtitle B, Chapter V, as amended) (the “Foreign Assets Control Regulations”) or any enabling legislation or executive order relating thereto (including, but not limited to (a) Executive order 13224 of September 21, 2001 Blocking Property and Prohibiting Transactions With Persons Who Commit, Threaten to Commit, or Support Terrorism (66 Fed. Reg. 49079 (2001)) (the “Executive Order”) and (b) the Patriot Act. Neither any Borrower nor any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliates is or will become a Sanctioned Entity or Sanctioned Person as described in the Executive Order, the Trading with the Enemy Act or the Foreign Assets Control Regulations or engages or will engage in any dealings or transactions, or be otherwise associated, with any such Sanctioned Entity or Sanctioned Person. No part of the proceeds of the Loans made hereunder will be used by any Borrower or Guarantor or any of their Affiliates, directly or indirectly, for

any payments to any governmental official or employee, political party, official of a political party, candidate for political office, or anyone else acting in an official capacity, in order to obtain, retain or direct business or obtain any improper advantage, in violation of the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended.

. At the time that any Borrower or Guarantor forms any direct or indirect Subsidiary or acquires any direct or indirect Subsidiary after the Effective Date (other than Fresh City Market, LLC, unless any Borrower or Guarantor, directly or indirectly, owns sixty-six (66%) percent or more of its Capital Stock), Lead Borrower shall (a) within fifteen (15) days of such formation or acquisition (or such later date as permitted by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) cause any such new Subsidiary to provide to Administrative Agent a Joinder Agreement, together with a joinder to the Guarantee or any other security document (including mortgages with respect to any Real Property owned in fee of such new Subsidiary with a fair market value of at least $2,500,000), as well as appropriate financing statements (and with respect to all property subject to a mortgage, fixture filings), all in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent (including being sufficient to grant Administrative Agent a first priority Lien (subject to liens permitted under Section 9.8 herein) in and to the assets of such newly formed or acquired Subsidiary); provided, that, such joinders and security documents shall not be required to be provided to Adminstrative Agent with respect to any Subsidiary of Borrowers that is a controlled foreign corporation if providing such documents would result in material adverse tax consequences, (b) within ten (10) days of such formation or acquisition (or such later date as permitted by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) provide to Administrative Agent a pledge agreement and appropriate certificates and powers or financing statements, pledging all of the direct or beneficial ownership interest in such new Subsidiary reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent; provided, that, only sixty-five (65%) percent of the total outstanding voting Capital Stock of any Subsidiary of any Borrower that is a controlled foreign corporation (and none of the Capital Stock of any Subsidiary of such controlled foreign corporation) shall be required to be pledged if pledging a greater amount would result in adverse tax consequences or the costs to the Borrowers of providing such pledge or perfecting the security interests created thereby are unreasonably excessive (as determined by Administrative Agent in consultation with Lead Borrower) in relation to the benefits of Administrative Agent and the Lenders of the security or guarantee afforded thereby (which pledge, if reasonably requested by Administrative Agent, shall be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction of such Subsidiary), and (c) within ten (10) days of such formation or acquisition (or such later date as permitted by Administrative Agent in its sole discretion) provide to Administrative Agent all other documentation, including one or more opinions of counsel reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent, which in its opinion is appropriate with respect to the execution and delivery of the applicable documentation referred to above (including policies of title insurance or other documentation with respect to all Real Property owned in fee and subject to a mortgage). Any document, agreement, or instrument executed or issued pursuant to this Section 9.24 shall be a Financing Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above, (i) Fresh City Market, LLC shall not be required to be a Guarantor so long as it does not have assets with a book value in excess of $25,000,000 and no Borrower or Guarantor owns more than eighty-two (82%) percent of the Capital Stock of it and (ii) Whitton Enterprises, Inc. shall not be required to be a Borrower or Guarantor so long as it is liquidated and dissolved in accordance with applicable law no later than June 30, 2015.

. At the request of Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time, Borrowers and Guarantors shall, at their expense, duly execute and deliver, or cause to be duly executed and delivered, such further agreements, documents and instruments, and do or cause to be done such further acts as may be necessary or proper to evidence, perfect, maintain and enforce the security interests and the priority thereof in the Collateral and to otherwise effectuate the provisions or purposes of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time request a certificate from an officer of any Borrower or Guarantor representing that all conditions precedent to the making of Loans and providing Letter of Credit Accommodations contained herein are satisfied. In the event of such request by Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent and Lenders may, at Administrative Agent’s option, cease to make any further Loans or provide any further Letter of Credit Accommodations until Administrative Agent has received such certificate and, in addition, Administrative Agent has determined that such conditions are satisfied. Promptly following any request therefor, Agent shall have received from Borrowers information and documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or any Lender for purposes of compliance with applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the USA PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation. For purposes hereof, “Beneficial Ownership Regulation” means 31 C.F.R. § 1010.230.

. Each Borrower will execute and deliver the documents and take such actions as are set forth on Schedule 9.26 hereto, in each case, within the time limits specified on such schedule (or such longer period as Administrative Agent may, in its Permitted Discretion, agree).

. Each Borrower and each Guarantor will, and will cause each of its Subsidiaries to comply with all applicable Sanctions, Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws. Each Borrower, each Guarantor and each of their respective Subsidiaries shall implement and maintain in effect policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by each Borrower, each Guarantor and each of their respective Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and Affiliates with all Sanctions, Anti-Corruption Laws and Anti-Money Laundering Laws.

Collateral having a value in excess of $30,000,000 or (ii) any other property of any Borrower or Guarantor (other than any Borrower or Guarantor which owns assets with a book value of less than $10,000,000 and which does not conduct material and profitable sales activities) which is necessary or material to the conduct of its business;

(a)At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have all rights and remedies provided in this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements, the UCC and other applicable law, all of which rights and remedies may be exercised without notice to or consent by any Borrower or Obligor, except as such notice or consent is expressly provided for hereunder or required by applicable law. All rights, remedies and powers granted to Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder, under any of the other Financing Agreements, the UCC or other applicable law, are cumulative, not exclusive and enforceable, in Administrative Agent’s discretion, alternatively, successively, or concurrently on any one or more occasions, and shall include, without limitation, the right to apply to a court of equity for an injunction to restrain a breach or threatened breach by any Borrower or Obligor of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Subject to Section 12 hereof, Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of the Required Lenders shall, at any time or times, proceed directly against any Borrower or Obligor to collect the Obligations without prior recourse to the Collateral.

(b)Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent may, at its option and shall upon the direction of the Required Lenders, (i) upon notice to Lead Borrower, accelerate the payment of all Obligations (other than Obligations arising pursuant to Bank Products) and demand immediate payment thereof to Administrative Agent for itself and the benefit of Lenders (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(f) and 10.1(g), all Obligations (other than Obligations arising pursuant to Bank Products) shall automatically become immediately due and payable), and (ii) terminate the Commitments and this Agreement (provided, that, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Sections 10.1(f) and 10.1(g), the Commitments and any other obligation of the Administrative Agent or a Lender hereunder shall automatically terminate).

(c)Without limiting the foregoing, at any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, and upon the direction of the Required Lenders, shall (i) with or without judicial process or the aid or assistance of others, enter upon any premises on or in which any of the Collateral may be located and take possession of the Collateral or complete processing, manufacturing and repair of all or any portion of the Collateral, (ii) require any Borrower or Obligor, at Borrowers’ expense, to assemble and make available to Administrative Agent any part or all of the Collateral at any place and time designated by Administrative Agent, (iii) collect, foreclose, receive, appropriate, setoff and realize upon any and all Collateral, (iv) remove any or all of the Collateral from any premises on or in which the same may be located for the purpose of effecting the sale, foreclosure or other disposition thereof or for any other purpose, (v) sell, lease, transfer, assign, deliver or otherwise dispose of any and all Collateral (including entering into contracts with respect thereto, public or private sales at any exchange, broker’s board, at any office of Administrative Agent or elsewhere) at such prices or terms as Administrative Agent may deem reasonable, for cash, upon credit or for future delivery, with the Administrative Agent having the right to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral at any such public sale, all of the foregoing being free from any right or equity of redemption of any Borrower or Obligor, which right or equity of redemption is hereby expressly waived and released by Borrowers and Obligors and/or (vi) terminate this Agreement. If any of the Collateral is sold or leased by Administrative Agent upon credit terms or for future delivery, the Obligations shall not be reduced as a result thereof until payment therefor is finally collected by Administrative Agent. If notice of disposition of Collateral is required by law, ten (10) days prior notice by Administrative Agent to Lead Borrower designating the time and place of any public sale or the time after which any private sale or other intended disposition of Collateral is to be made, shall be deemed to be reasonable notice thereof and Borrowers and Obligors waive any other notice. In the event Administrative Agent institutes an action to recover any Collateral or seeks recovery of any Collateral by way of prejudgment remedy, each Borrower and Obligor waives the posting of any bond which might otherwise be required. At any time an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, upon Administrative Agent’s request, Borrowers will either, as Administrative Agent shall specify, furnish cash collateral to the issuer to be used to secure and fund Administrative Agent’s reimbursement obligations to the issuer in connection with any Letter of Credit Accommodations or furnish cash collateral to Administrative Agent for the Letter of Credit Accommodations. Such cash collateral shall be in the amount equal to one hundred five (105%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodations plus the amount of any expenses payable or to become payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of such Letter of Credit Accommodations.

(d)At any time or times that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, enforce the rights of any Borrower or Obligor against any Account Debtor, secondary obligor or other obligor in respect of any of the Accounts or other Receivables. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, at such time or times (i) notify any or all Account Debtors, secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof that the Receivables have been assigned to Administrative Agent and that Administrative Agent has a security interest therein and Administrative Agent may direct any or all accounts debtors, secondary obligors and other obligors to make payment of Receivables directly to Administrative Agent, (ii) extend the time of payment of, compromise, settle or adjust for cash, credit, return of merchandise or otherwise,

and upon any terms or conditions, any and all Receivables or other obligations included in the Collateral and thereby discharge or release the Account Debtor or any secondary obligors or other obligors in respect thereof without affecting any of the Obligations, (iii) demand, collect or enforce payment of any Receivables or such other obligations, but without any duty to do so, and Administrative Agent and Lenders shall not be liable for any failure to collect or enforce the payment thereof nor for the negligence of its agents or attorneys with respect thereto and (iv) take whatever other action Administrative Agent may deem necessary or desirable for the protection of its interests and the interests of Lenders. At any time that an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, at Administrative Agent’s request, all invoices and statements sent to any Account Debtor shall state that the Accounts and such other obligations have been assigned to Administrative Agent and are payable directly and only to Administrative Agent and Borrowers and Obligors shall deliver to Administrative Agent such originals of documents evidencing the sale and delivery of goods or the performance of services giving rise to any Accounts as Administrative Agent may require. In the event any Account Debtor returns Inventory when an Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing, Borrowers shall, upon Administrative Agent’s request, hold the returned Inventory in trust for Administrative Agent, segregate all returned Inventory from all of its other property, dispose of the returned Inventory solely according to Administrative Agent’s instructions, and not issue any credits, discounts or allowances with respect thereto without Administrative Agent’s prior written consent.

(e)To the extent that applicable law imposes duties on Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise remedies in a commercially reasonable manner (which duties cannot be waived under such law), each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges and agrees that it is not commercially unreasonable for Administrative Agent or any Lender (i) to fail to incur expenses reasonably deemed significant by Administrative Agent or any Lender to prepare Collateral for disposition or otherwise to complete raw material or work in process into finished goods or other finished products for disposition, (ii) to fail to obtain third party consents for access to Collateral to be disposed of, or to obtain or, if not required by other law, to fail to obtain consents of any Governmental Authority or other third party for the collection or disposition of Collateral to be collected or disposed of, (iii) to fail to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors, secondary obligors or other persons obligated on Collateral or to remove liens or encumbrances on or any adverse claims against Collateral, (iv) to exercise collection remedies against Account Debtors and other persons obligated on Collateral directly or through the use of collection agencies and other collection specialists, (v) to advertise dispositions of Collateral through publications or media of general circulation, whether or not the Collateral is of a specialized nature, (vi) to contact other persons, whether or not in the same business as any Borrower or Guarantor, for expressions of interest in acquiring all or any portion of the Collateral, (vii) to hire one or more professional auctioneers to assist in the disposition of Collateral, whether or not the collateral is of a specialized nature, (viii) to dispose of Collateral by utilizing Internet sites that provide for the auction of assets of the types included in the Collateral or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets, (ix) to dispose of assets in wholesale rather than retail markets, (x) to disclaim disposition warranties, (xi) to purchase insurance or credit enhancements to insure Administrative Agent or Lenders against risks of loss, collection or disposition of Collateral or to provide to Administrative Agent or Lenders a guaranteed return from the collection or disposition of Collateral, or (xii) to the extent deemed appropriate by Administrative Agent, to obtain the services of other brokers, investment

bankers, consultants and other professionals to assist Administrative Agent in the collection or disposition of any of the Collateral. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that the purpose of this Section is to provide non-exhaustive indications of what actions or omissions by Administrative Agent or any Lender would not be commercially unreasonable in the exercise by Administrative Agent or any Lender of remedies against the Collateral and that other actions or omissions by Administrative Agent or any Lender shall not be deemed commercially unreasonable solely on account of not being indicated in this Section. Without limitation of the foregoing, nothing contained in this Section shall be construed to grant any rights to any Borrower or Guarantor or to impose any duties on Administrative Agent or Lenders that would not have been granted or imposed by this Agreement or by applicable law in the absence of this Section.

(f)For the purpose of enabling Administrative Agent to exercise the rights and remedies hereunder, each Borrower and Obligor hereby grants to Administrative Agent, to the extent assignable, an irrevocable, non-exclusive license (exercisable at any time an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and for so long as the same is continuing) without payment of royalty or other compensation to any Borrower or Obligor, to use, assign, license or sublicense any of the trademarks, service-marks, trade names, business names, trade styles, designs, logos and other source of business identifiers and other Intellectual Property and general intangibles now owned or hereafter acquired by any Borrower or Obligor, wherever the same maybe located, including in such license reasonable access to all media in which any of the licensed items may be recorded or stored and to all computer programs used for the compilation or printout thereof.

(g)At any time an Event of Default shall exist or have occurred and for so long as the same is continuing, Administrative Agent may apply the cash proceeds of Collateral actually received by Administrative Agent from any sale, lease, foreclosure or other disposition of the Collateral to payment of the Obligations, in whole or in part and in accordance with the terms hereof, whether or not then due. Borrowers and Guarantors shall remain liable to Administrative Agent and Lenders for the payment of any deficiency with interest at the highest rate provided for herein and all costs and expenses of collection or enforcement, including attorneys’ fees and expenses.

(h)Without limiting the foregoing, upon the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default, (i) Administrative Agent and Lenders may, at Administrative Agent’s option, and upon the occurrence of an Event of Default at the direction of the Required Lenders, Administrative Agent and Lenders shall, without notice, (A) cease making Loans or arranging for Letter of Credit Accommodations or reduce the lending formulas or amounts of Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations available to Borrowers and/or (B) terminate any provision of this Agreement providing for any future Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations to be made by Administrative Agent and Lenders to Borrowers and (ii) Administrative Agent may, at its option, establish such Reserves as Administrative Agent determines, without limitation or restriction, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein.

(a)The validity, interpretation and enforcement of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements (except as otherwise provided therein) and any dispute arising out of the relationship between the parties hereto, whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, shall be governed by the internal laws of the State of Illinois but excluding any principles of conflicts of law or other rule of law that would cause the application of the law of any jurisdiction other than the laws of the State of Illinois; provided, that, only for purposes of Section 4.1(h) of this Agreement, the term “Nash-Finch Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in the Nash-Finch Merger Agreement as in effect on July 21, 2013 and as delivered to Arrangers) and “Spartan Material Adverse Effect” (as defined in the Nash-Finch Merger Agreement as in effect on July 21, 2013 and as delivered to Arrangers) (and whether or not such a Nash-Finch Material Adverse Effect or Spartan Material Adverse Effect, as applicable, has occurred) shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof.

(b)Borrowers, Guarantors, Administrative Agent and Lenders irrevocably consent and submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois and the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, whichever Administrative Agent may elect, and waive any objection based on venue or forum non conveniens with respect to any action instituted therein arising under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or in any way connected with or related or incidental to the dealings of the parties hereto in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or the transactions related hereto or thereto, in each case whether now existing or hereafter arising, and whether in contract, tort, equity or otherwise, and agree that any dispute with respect to any such matters shall be heard only in the courts described above (except that Administrative Agent and Lenders shall have the right to bring any action or proceeding against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property in the courts of any other jurisdiction which Administrative Agent deems necessary or appropriate in order to realize on the Collateral or to otherwise enforce its rights against any Borrower or Guarantor or its or their property).

(c)Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives personal service of any and all process upon it and consents that all such service of process may be made by certified mail (return receipt requested) directed to its address set forth herein and service so made shall be deemed to be completed five (5) days after the same shall have been so deposited in the U.S. mails, or, at Administrative Agent’s option, by service upon any Borrower or Guarantor in any other manner provided under the rules of any such courts. Within thirty (30) days after such service, such Borrower or Guarantor shall appear in answer to such process, failing which such Borrower or Guarantor shall be deemed in default and judgment may be entered by Administrative Agent against such Borrower or Guarantor for the amount of the claim and other relief requested.

(d)BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY OF ANY CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING UNDER THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH OR RELATED OR INCIDENTAL TO THE DEALINGS OF THE PARTIES HERETO IN RESPECT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS OR THE TRANSACTIONS RELATED HERETO OR THERETO IN EACH

CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING, AND WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, EQUITY OR OTHERWISE. BORROWERS, GUARANTORS, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT AND LENDERS EACH HEREBY AGREES AND CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION SHALL BE DECIDED BY COURT TRIAL WITHOUT A JURY AND THAT ANY BORROWER, ANY GUARANTOR, ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY LENDER MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OF A COPY OF THIS AGREEMENT WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF THE PARTIES HERETO TO THE WAIVER OF THEIR RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY.

(e)Administrative Agent, Lenders and the other Secured Parties shall not have any liability to any Borrower or Guarantor (whether in tort, contract, equity or otherwise) for losses suffered by such Borrower or Guarantor in connection with, arising out of, or in any way related to the transactions or relationships contemplated by this Agreement, or any act, omission or event occurring in connection herewith, except to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of Administrative Agent or a Secured Party as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment or court order binding on Administrative Agent, such Lender or other Secured Party. In any such litigation, Administrative Agent, Lenders and the other Secured Parties shall be entitled to the benefit of the rebuttable presumption that it acted in good faith and with the exercise of ordinary care in the performance by it of the terms of this Agreement. Each Borrower and Guarantor: (i) certifies that neither Administrative Agent, any Lender nor any representative, agent or attorney acting for or on behalf of Administrative Agent or any Lender has represented, expressly or otherwise, that Administrative Agent and Lenders would not, in the event of litigation, seek to enforce any of the waivers provided for in this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements and (ii) acknowledges that in entering into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, Administrative Agent and Lenders are relying upon, among other things, the waivers and certifications set forth in this Section 11.1 and elsewhere herein and therein.

. Each Borrower and Guarantor hereby expressly waives demand, presentment, protest and notice of protest and notice of dishonor with respect to any and all instruments and chattel paper, included in or evidencing any of the Obligations or the Collateral, and any and all other demands and notices of any kind or nature whatsoever with respect to the Obligations, the Collateral and this Agreement, except such as are expressly provided for herein. No notice to or demand on any Borrower or Guarantor which Administrative Agent or any Lender may elect to give shall entitle such Borrower or Guarantor to any other or further notice or demand to which such Borrower or Guarantor is not otherwise entitled in the same, similar or other circumstances.

(a)Neither this Agreement nor any other Financing Agreement nor any terms hereof or thereof may be amended, waived, discharged or terminated unless such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination is in writing signed by Administrative Agent and the Required Lenders or at Administrative Agent’s option, by Administrative Agent with the authorization of the Required Lenders, and as to amendments to any of the Financing Agreements (other than

with respect to any provision of Section 12 hereof), by Lead Borrower (for itself and the other Borrowers); except, that,

(i) any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to the following shall require the consent of Administrative Agent and all Lenders:

(A) amend, modify or waive any terms of the definition of “Pro Rata Share” or this Section 11.3 hereof,

(B) the change of any percentage specified in (or any amendment to) the definition of Required Lenders, Required Tranche A Lenders, Required Tranche A-1 Lenders, Required Tranche A-2 Lenders or Supermajority Lenders,

(C) reduce the scheduled reductions in advance rates for any of the Tranche A Real Estate Availability, the Tranche A Equipment Availability or the Tranche A Rolling Stock Availability, or reduce the scheduled amortization of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans,

(G) increase the advance rates constituting part of any of the Tranche A Borrowing Base, the Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base or the Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base;

(ii) any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to the following shall require the consent of Administrative Agent and each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby:

(A) reduce the interest rate or any fees, extend the time of payment of principal, interest or any fees or reduce the principal amount of any Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodations (provided, that, a waiver of default interest, Default or Event of Default shall not constitute a reduction of interest for this purpose),

(B) increase the Commitment of any Lender (including any Defaulting Lender) over the amount thereof then in effect or provided hereunder, and

(iii) the consent of the Administrative Agent, the Supermajority Lenders, the Required Tranche A Lenders, the Required Tranche A-1 Lenders and the Required Tranche A-2 Lenders shall be required for any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to (A) the definition of Tranche A Borrowing Base,Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base or Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base or any components thereof but only to the extent such proposed change would make more credit available to Borrowers (but exclusive of the right of Administrative Agent to add, increase, eliminate or reduce the amount of Reserves or to exercise other discretion it may have pursuant to such provisions) and (B) Section 2.5(e);

(iv) any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to the following shall require the consent of Administrative Agent, the Required Tranche A Lenders, the Required Tranche A-1 Lenders and the Required Tranche A-2 Lenders:

Any such waiver shall be enforceable only to the extent specifically set forth therein. A waiver by Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank of any right, power and/or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right, power and/or remedy which Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank would otherwise have on any future occasion, whether similar in kind or otherwise.

(c)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 11.3(a) above, in connection with any amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, in the event that any Lender whose consent thereto is required shall fail to consent or fail to consent in a timely

manner (such Lender being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), but the consent of any other Lenders to such amendment, waiver, discharge or termination that is required are obtained, if any, then Wells and Parent shall have the right, but not the obligation, at any time thereafter, and upon the exercise by Wells or Parent of such right, such Non-Consenting Lender shall have the obligation, to sell, assign and transfer to Wells or such Eligible Transferee as Wells may specify after consultation with Lead Borrower, the Commitment of such Non-Consenting Lender and all rights and interests of such Non-Consenting Lender pursuant thereto. Wells or Parent shall provide the Non-Consenting Lender with prior written notice of its intent to exercise its right under this Section, which notice shall specify on date on which such purchase and sale shall occur. Such purchase and sale shall be pursuant to the terms of an Assignment and Acceptance (whether or not executed by the Non-Consenting Lender), except that on the date of such purchase and sale, Wells, or such Eligible Transferee specified by Wells after consultation with Lead Borrower, shall pay to the Non-Consenting Lender (except as Wells and such Non-Consenting Lender may otherwise agree) the amount equal to: (i) the principal balance of the Loans held by the Non-Consenting Lender outstanding as of the close of business on the business day immediately preceding the effective date of such purchase and sale, plus (ii) amounts accrued and unpaid in respect of interest and fees payable to the Non-Consenting Lender to the effective date of the purchase (but in no event shall the Non-Consenting Lender be deemed entitled to any early termination fee), minus (iii) the amount of the closing fee received by the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to the terms hereof or of any of the other Financing Agreements multiplied by the fraction, the numerator of which is the number of months remaining in the then current term of the Credit Facility and the denominator of which is the number of months in the then current term thereof. Such purchase and sale shall be effective on the date of the payment of such amount to the Non-Consenting Lender and the Commitment of the Non-Consenting Lender shall terminate on such date.

(d)The consent of Administrative Agent shall be required for any amendment, waiver or consent affecting the rights or duties of Administrative Agent hereunder or under any of the other Financing Agreements, in addition to the consent of the Lenders otherwise required by this Section and the exercise by Administrative Agent of any of its rights hereunder with respect to Reserves or Eligible Accounts, Eligible Military Receivables, Eligible Inventory, Eligible Credit Card Receivables, Eligible Unaffixed Cigarette Tax Stamps, Eligible Equipment, Eligible Prescription Files, Eligible Life Insurance Policies, Eligible Cash and Cash Equivalents, Eligible Real Property or Eligible Rolling Stock shall not be deemed an amendment to the advance rates provided for in this Section 11.3.

(e)The consent of Administrative Agent and each Bank Product Provider that is providing any Bank Products and has outstanding any such Bank Products at such time that are secured hereunder shall be required for any amendment, waiver or consent to the priority of payment of Obligations arising under or pursuant to any Bank Products as set forth in Sections 6.4(a) and (b) hereof. In no event shall the consent or approval of any Bank Product Provider be required for any amendment, waiver or consent under this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements, except as provided in the immediately preceding sentence.

. Each Borrower and Guarantor waives all rights to interpose any claims, deductions, setoffs or counterclaims of any nature (other then compulsory

counterclaims) in any action or proceeding with respect to this Agreement, the Obligations, the Collateral or any matter arising therefrom or relating hereto or thereto.

. Each Borrower and Guarantor shall, jointly and severally, indemnify and hold Administrative Agent, Issuing Bank, Swing Line Lender and each Lender, and its officers, directors, agents, employees, advisors and counsel and their respective Affiliates (each such person being an “Indemnitee”), harmless from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs or expenses (including attorneys’ fees and expenses) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any of them in connection with any litigation, investigation, claim or proceeding commenced or threatened related to the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery, enforcement, performance or administration of this Agreement, any other Financing Agreements, or any undertaking or proceeding related to any of the transactions contemplated hereby or any act, omission, event or transaction related or attendant thereto, including amounts paid in settlement, court costs, and the fees and expenses of counsel except that Borrowers and Guarantors shall not have any obligation under this Section 11.5 to indemnify an Indemnitee with respect to a matter covered hereby to the extent resulting from the gross negligence or wilful misconduct of such Indemnitee as determined pursuant to a final, non-appealable order of a court of competent jurisdiction (but without limiting the obligations of Borrowers or Guarantors as to any other Indemnitee). To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section may be unenforceable because it violates any law or public policy, Borrowers and Guarantors shall pay the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay under applicable law to Administrative Agent and Lenders in satisfaction of indemnified matters under this Section. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Borrower or Guarantor shall assert, and each Borrower and Guarantor hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or any undertaking or transaction contemplated hereby. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable upon demand. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

. Each Lender irrevocably designates, appoints and authorizes Wells to act as Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements with such powers as are specifically delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms of this Agreement and of the other Financing Agreements, together with such other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Administrative Agent (a) shall have no duties or responsibilities except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and in the other Financing Agreements, and shall not by reason of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement be a trustee or fiduciary for any Lender; (b) shall not be responsible to Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties contained in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, or in any certificate or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by any of them under, this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or for any failure by any Borrower or any Obligor or any other Person to perform any of its obligations hereunder or thereunder; and (c) shall not be responsible to Lenders for any action

taken or omitted to be taken by it hereunder or under any other Financing Agreement or under any other document or instrument referred to or provided for herein or therein or in connection herewith or therewith, except for its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing or any of the other rights and duties of Administrative Agent provided for herein or in the other Financing Agreements, each Lender hereby specifically irrevocably authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into, if applicable, the Qualified Debt Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender and acknowledges and agrees that such Lender shall be bound thereby and subject to all of the terms and conditions thereof, deemed to make all representations and warranties made by a Revolving Lender (or comparable term as defined therein) as to itself and Administrative Agent shall be irrevocably authorized to take such actions as are provided for on behalf of such Lender thereunder. Administrative Agent may employ agents and attorneys‑in‑fact and shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any such agents or attorneys‑in‑fact selected by it in good faith. Administrative Agent may deem and treat the payee of any note as the holder thereof for all purposes hereof unless and until the assignment thereof pursuant to an agreement (if and to the extent permitted herein) in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent shall have been delivered to and acknowledged by Administrative Agent.

. Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any certification, notice or other communication (including any thereof by telephone, telecopy, telex, telegram or cable) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed or sent by or on behalf of the proper Person or Persons, and upon advice and statements of legal counsel, independent accountants and other experts selected by Administrative Agent. As to any matters not expressly provided for by this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, hereunder or thereunder in accordance with instructions given by the Required Lenders or all of Lenders as is required in such circumstance, and such instructions of such Administrative Agents and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding on all Lenders.

(a)Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of a Default or an Event of Default or other failure of a condition precedent to the Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder, unless and until Administrative Agent has received written notice from a Lender, or a Borrower specifying such Event of Default or any unfulfilled condition precedent, and stating that such notice is a “Notice of Default or Failure of Condition”. In the event that Administrative Agent receives such a Notice of Default or Failure of Condition, Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to the Lenders. Administrative Agent shall (subject to Section 12.7) take such action with respect to any such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent as shall be directed by the Required Lenders; provided, that, unless and until Administrative Agent shall have received such directions, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to or by reason of such Event of Default or failure of condition precedent, as it shall deem advisable in the best interest of Lenders. Without limiting the foregoing, and notwithstanding the existence or occurrence and continuance of an Event of

Default or any other failure to satisfy any of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4 of this Agreement to the contrary, Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, continue to make Loans and issue or cause to be issued Letter of Credit Accommodations for the ratable account and risk of Lenders from time to time if Administrative Agent believes making such Loans or issuing or causing to be issued such Letter of Credit Accommodations is in the best interests of Lenders.

(b)Except with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, no Lender may assert or exercise any enforcement right or remedy in respect of the Loans, Letter of Credit Accommodations or other Obligations, as against any Borrower or Obligor or any of the Collateral or other property of any Borrower or Obligor.

. With respect to its Commitment and the Loans made and Letter of Credit Accommodations issued or caused to be issued by it (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent), so long as Wells shall be a Lender hereunder, it shall have the same rights and powers hereunder as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not acting as Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless the context otherwise indicates, include Wells in its individual capacity as Lender hereunder. Wells (and any successor acting as Administrative Agent) and its Affiliates may (without having to account therefor to any Lender) lend money to, make investments in and generally engage in any kind of business with Borrowers (and any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates) as if it were not acting as Administrative Agent, and Wells and its Affiliates may accept fees and other consideration from any Borrower or Guarantor and any of its Subsidiaries and Affiliates for services in connection with this Agreement or otherwise without having to account for the same to Lenders.

. Lenders agree to indemnify Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by Borrowers hereunder and without limiting any obligations of Borrowers hereunder) ratably, in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, for any and all claims of any kind and nature whatsoever that may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against Administrative Agent (including by any Lender) arising out of or by reason of any investigation in or in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any other Financing Agreement or any other documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby (including the costs and expenses that Administrative Agent is obligated to pay hereunder) or the enforcement of any of the terms hereof or thereof or of any such other documents, 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 party to be indemnified as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. The foregoing indemnity shall survive the payment of the Obligations and the termination or non-renewal of this Agreement.

. Each Lender agrees that it has, independently and without reliance on Administrative Agent or other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis of Borrowers and Obligors and has made its own decision to enter into this Agreement and that it will, independently and without reliance upon Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,

continue to make its own analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements. Administrative Agent shall not be required to keep itself informed as to the performance or observance by any Borrower or Obligor of any term or provision of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements or any other document referred to or provided for herein or therein or to inspect the properties or books of any Borrower or Obligor. Administrative Agent will use reasonable efforts to provide Lenders with any information received by Administrative Agent from any Borrower or Obligor which is required to be provided to Lenders or deemed to be requested by Lenders hereunder and with a copy of any Notice of Default or Failure of Condition received by Administrative Agent from any Borrower or any Lender; provided, that, Administrative Agent shall not be liable to any Lender for any failure to do so, except to the extent that such failure is attributable to Administrative Agent’s own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to Lenders by Administrative Agent hereunder, Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any other credit or other information concerning the affairs, financial condition or business of any Borrower or Obligor that may come into the possession of Administrative Agent.

. Except for action expressly required of Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Financing Agreements, Administrative Agent shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder and thereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from Lenders of their indemnification obligations under Section 12.5 hereof against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

. Administrative Agent shall not make any Loans or provide any Letter of Credit Accommodations to any Borrower on behalf of Lenders intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations (a) would cause the aggregate amount of the total outstanding Tranche A Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base and (b) would cause the aggregate amount of the total outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Total Borrowing Base, in each case, without the prior consent of all Lenders, except, that, Administrative Agent may make such additional Loans or provide such additional Letter of Credit Accommodations on behalf of Lenders, intentionally and with actual knowledge that such Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations will cause the total outstanding Tranche A Revolving Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base or cause total outstanding Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Total Borrowing Base, as Administrative Agent may deem necessary or advisable in its discretion, provided, that: (i) the total principal amount of the additional Loans or additional Letter of Credit Accommodations to any Borrower which Administrative Agent may make or provide after obtaining such actual knowledge that the aggregate principal amount of the Loans equal or exceed the Tranche A Borrowing Base or the Total Borrowing Base, as applicable, plus the amount of Special Administrative Agent Advances made pursuant to Sections 12.11(a)(i) and (ii) hereof then outstanding, shall not exceed $75,000,000 and shall not cause the total principal amount of the Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Maximum Credit or the Tranche A Loans to exceed the Tranche A Maximum Credit or the Tranche A-1 Loans to exceed the Tranche A-1 Maximum Credit and (ii) no such additional Loan or Letter of Credit

Accommodation shall be outstanding more than ninety (90) days after the date such additional Loan or Letter of Credit Accommodation is made or issued (as the case may be), except as the Required Tranche A Lenders, Required Tranche A-1 Lenders and Required Tranche A-2 Lenders may otherwise agree and no such additional Loans may exist for at least five (5) consecutive days thereafter before further such additional Loans may be made at the end of such ninety (90) day period. Each Lender shall be obligated to pay Administrative Agent the amount of its Pro Rata Share of any such additional Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations. The Required Lenders may by written notice to Administrative Agent revoke the authority of Administrative Agent to make future additional Loans pursuant to this Section 12.8 at any time.

. Each Lender authorizes and directs Administrative Agent to enter into this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements. Each Tranche A Lender, Tranche A-1 Lender and Tranche A-2 Lender agrees that any action taken by Administrative Agent, Required Lenders, Required Tranche A Lenders, Required Tranche A-1 Lenders, Required Tranche A-2 Lenders or Supermajority Lenders in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements and the exercise by Administrative Agent, Required Lenders, Required Tranche A Lenders, Required Tranche A-1 Lenders, Required Tranche A-2 Lenders or Supermajority Lenders of their respective powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon the Tranche A Lenders, the Tranche A-1 Lenders and the Tranche A-2 Lenders, as applicable.

12.10Field Audit, Examination Reports and other Information; Disclaimer by Lenders

(i) is deemed to have requested that Administrative Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report and report with respect to any Tranche A Borrowing Base, Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base or Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base prepared or received by Administrative Agent (each field audit or examination report and report with respect to any Tranche A Borrowing Base, Tranche A-1 Borrowing Base or Tranche A-2 Borrowing Base being referred to herein as a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”), appraisal and financial statements;

(ii) expressly agrees and acknowledges that Administrative Agent (A) does not make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, appraisal or financial statement or (B) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report, appraisal or financial statement;

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

(iv) agrees to keep all Reports confidential and strictly for its internal use in accordance with the terms of Section 13.5 hereof, and not to distribute or use any Report in any other manner.

(b)Borrower and Guarantors hereby acknowledge that (i) the Administrative Agent and/or the Arrangers will make available to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank materials and/or information provided by or on behalf of the Borrowers and Guarantors hereunder (collectively, “Borrower Materials”) by posting the Borrower Materials on IntraLinks or another similar electronic system (the “Platform”) and (ii) certain of the Lenders may be “public-side” Lenders (i.e., Lenders that do not wish to receive material non-public information with respect to the Borrowers and Guarantors or their securities) (each, a “Public Lender”). Borrowers and Guarantors hereby agree that they will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that may be distributed to the Public Lenders and that (A) all the Borrower Materials shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (B) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers and Guarantors shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders to treat the Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) with respect to the Borrowers and Guarantors or their securities for purposes of United States Federal and state securities laws (provided, that, to the extent the Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 13.5); (C) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Investor”; and (D) the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers shall be entitled to treat the Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not designated “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrowers shall be under no obligation to mark any Borrower Materials “PUBLIC.”

(a)Administrative Agent may, at its option, from time to time, at any time on or after an Event of Default and for so long as the same is continuing or upon any other failure of a condition precedent to the Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder, make such disbursements and advances (“Special Administrative Agent Advances”) which Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, (i) deems necessary or desirable either to preserve or protect the Collateral or any portion thereof or (ii) to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment by Borrowers and Guarantors of the Loans and other Obligations, provided, that, the aggregate principal amount of the Special Administrative Agent Advances pursuant to clauses (i) and (ii) above, plus the then outstanding principal amount of the additional Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations which Administrative Agent may make or provide as set forth in Section 12.8 hereof, shall not exceed the aggregate amount of $75,000,000 or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to any Borrower or Guarantor pursuant to the terms of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements consisting of (A) costs, fees and expenses and (B) payments to any issuer of Letter of Credit Accommodations. Special Administrative Agent Advances shall be repayable on demand and together with all interest thereon shall constitute Obligations secured by the Collateral. Special Administrative Agent Advances shall not constitute Loans but shall otherwise constitute Obligations hereunder. Interest on Special

Administrative Agent Advances shall be payable at the Interest Rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans and shall be payable on demand. Special Administrative Agent Advances shall not cause the total principal amount of the Loans and Letter of Credit Accommodations to exceed the Maximum Credit. Without limitation of its obligations pursuant to Section 6.10, each Lender agrees that it shall make available to Administrative Agent, upon Administrative Agent’s demand, in immediately available funds, the amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each such Special Administrative Agent Advance. If such funds are not made available to Administrative Agent by such Lender, such Lender shall be deemed a Defaulting Lender and Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such funds, on demand from such Lender together with interest thereon for each day from the date such payment was due until the date such amount is paid to Administrative Agent at the Federal Funds Rate for each day during such period (as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York or at Administrative Agent’s option based on the arithmetic mean determined by Administrative Agent of the rates for the last transaction in overnight Federal funds arranged prior to 9:00 a.m. (New York City time) on that day by each of the three leading brokers of Federal funds transactions in New York City selected by Administrative Agent) and if such amounts are not paid within three (3) days of Administrative Agent’s demand, at the highest Interest Rate provided for in Section 3.1 hereof applicable to Base Rate Loans.

(b)Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion to release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral (i) upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Obligations and delivery of cash collateral to the extent required under Section 13.1 below, or (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if Lead Borrower or any Borrower or Guarantor certifies to Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with Section 9.7 hereof (and Administrative Agent may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), or (iii) constituting property in which any Borrower or Guarantor did not own an interest at the time the security interest, mortgage or lien was granted or at any time thereafter, or (iv) having a value in the aggregate in any twelve (12) month period of less than $25,000,000, and to the extent Administrative Agent may release its security interest in and lien upon any such Collateral pursuant to the sale or other disposition thereof, such sale or other disposition shall be deemed consented to by Lenders, or (v) if required or permitted under any other terms hereof or of any of the other Financing Agreements, including any intercreditor agreement, or (vi) approved, authorized or ratified in writing by all of Lenders. Except as provided above, Administrative Agent will not release any security interest in, mortgage or lien upon, any of the Collateral without the prior written authorization of all of Lenders. Upon request by Administrative Agent at any time, Lenders will promptly confirm in writing Administrative Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section.

(c)Without in any manner limiting Administrative Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by the Required Lenders, each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by Administrative Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon Administrative Agent under this Section. Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary to evidence the release of the security interest, mortgage or liens granted to Administrative Agent upon any Collateral to the extent set forth above; provided, that, (i)

Administrative Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in Administrative Agent’s opinion, would expose Administrative Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such security interest, mortgage or liens without recourse or warranty and (ii) such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any security interest, mortgage or lien upon (or obligations of any Borrower or Guarantor in respect of) the Collateral retained by such Borrower or Guarantor.

(d)Administrative Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender or any other Person to investigate, confirm or assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by any Borrower or Guarantor or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that any particular items of Collateral meet the eligibility criteria applicable in respect of the Loans or Letter of Credit Accommodations hereunder, or whether any particular reserves are appropriate, or that the liens and security interests granted to Administrative Agent pursuant hereto or any of the Financing Agreements or otherwise 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 Administrative Agent in this Agreement or in any of the other Financing Agreements, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, Administrative Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its discretion, given Administrative Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Lender and that Administrative Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other Lender.

. Each Lender hereby appoints Administrative Agent and each other Lender as agent and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral of Administrative Agent in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC can be perfected only by possession (or where the security interest of a secured party with possession has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of any such Collateral for the benefit of Administrative Agent as secured party. Should any Lender obtain possession of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon Administrative Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to Administrative Agent or in accordance with Administrative Agent’s instructions.

(a)In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Borrower or Guarantor, Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Obligations or amounts owing in respect of Letter of Credit Accommodations shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrowers) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Obligations (other than obligations under Bank Products to which Administrative Agent is not a party) and all other Obligations that are owing

and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of Lenders, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Lenders, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due Lenders, Issuing Bank and Administrative Agent allowed in such judicial proceeding); and

(ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same; and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender and Issuing Bank to make such payments to Administrative Agent and, in the event that Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to Lenders and Issuing Bank, to pay to Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due Administrative Agent.

(b)Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

(c)To the extent required by local law, Borrowers and Guarantors agree to reiterate the terms of the power of attorney granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 12.13 under any separate letter or document.

. Administrative Agent may resign as Administrative Agent upon thirty (30) days’ notice to Lenders and Parent. If Administrative Agent resigns under this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for Lenders. If no successor agent is appointed prior to the effective date of the resignation of Administrative Agent, Administrative Agent may appoint, after consulting with Lenders and Parent, a successor agent from among Lenders. Upon the acceptance by the Lender so selected of its appointment as successor agent hereunder, such successor agent shall succeed to all of the rights, powers and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent and the term “Administrative Agent” as used herein and in the other Financing Agreements shall mean such successor agent and the retiring Administrative Agent’s appointment, powers and duties as Administrative Agent shall be terminated. After any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative Agent, the provisions of this Section 12 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement. If no successor agent has accepted appointment as Administrative Agent by the date which is thirty (30) days after the date of a retiring Administrative Agent’s notice of resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless thereupon become effective and Lenders shall perform all of the duties of Administrative Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. Any resignation by Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (a) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the

retiring Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender, (b) the retiring Issuing Bank and Swing Line Lender shall be discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Financing Agreements, and (c) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect to such Letters of Credit.

. Administrative Agent may at any time and from time to time determine that a Lender may, in addition, be a “Administrative Agent”, “Syndication Agent”, “Documentation Agent” or similar designation hereunder and enter into an agreement with such Lender to have it so identified for purposes of this Agreement. Administrative Agent shall provide written notice to Lead Borrower of any such agreement. Any Lender that is so designated as a Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar designation by Administrative Agent shall have no right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, the Lenders so identified shall not have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender and no Lender shall be deemed to have relied, nor shall any Lender rely, on a Lender so identified as a Administrative Agent, Syndication Agent, Documentation Agent or such similar designation in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

(a)THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER FINANCING AGREEMENTS SHALL BECOME EFFECTIVE AS OF THE DATE SET FORTH ON THE FIRST PAGE HEREOF AND SHALL CONTINUE IN FULL FORCE AND EFFECT FOR A TERM ENDING ON DECEMBER 18, 2023 (THE “MATURITY DATE”). In addition, Borrowers may terminate this Agreement at any time upon ten (10) days prior written notice to Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable) and Administrative Agent may, at its option, and shall at the direction of Required Lenders, terminate this Agreement at any time on or after an Event of Default. Upon the Maturity Date or any other effective date of termination of the Financing Agreements, Borrowers shall pay to Administrative Agent all outstanding and unpaid Obligations and shall furnish cash collateral to Administrative Agent (or at Administrative Agent’s option, a letter of credit issued for the account of Borrowers and at Borrowers’ expense, in form and substance satisfactory to Administrative Agent, by an issuer acceptable to Administrative Agent and payable to Administrative Agent as beneficiary) in such amounts as Administrative Agent determines are reasonably necessary to secure Administrative Agent and Lenders from loss, cost, damage or expense, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, in connection with any contingent Obligations, including issued and outstanding Letter of Credit Accommodations and checks or other payments provisionally credited to the Obligations and/or as to which Administrative Agent or any Lender has not yet received final and indefeasible payment and any continuing obligations of Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to any Deposit Account Control Agreement (contingent or otherwise) and for any of the Obligations, arising under or in connection with any Bank Products in such amounts as the Bank Product Provider may require (unless such Obligations arising under or in connection with any Bank

Products are paid in full in cash and terminated in a manner satisfactory to the Bank Product Provider). The amount of such cash collateral (or letter of credit, as Administrative Agent may determine) as to any Letter of Credit Accommodations shall be in the amount equal to one hundred five (105%) percent of the amount of the Letter of Credit Accommodations plus the amount of any expenses payable or to become payable in connection therewith through the end of the latest expiration date of such Letter of Credit Accommodations. Such payments in respect of the Obligations and cash collateral shall be remitted by wire transfer in Federal funds to the Administrative Agent Payment Account or such other bank account of Administrative Agent, as Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, designate in writing to Lead Borrower for such purpose. Interest shall be due until and including the next Business Day, if the amounts so paid by Borrowers to the Administrative Agent Payment Account or other bank account designated by Administrative Agent are received in such bank account later than 12:00 noon, Boston time.

(b)No termination of this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements shall relieve or discharge any Borrower or Guarantor of its respective duties, obligations and covenants under this Agreement or the other Financing Agreements until all Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid, and Administrative Agent’s continuing security interest in the Collateral and the rights and remedies of Administrative Agent and Lenders hereunder, under the other Financing Agreements and applicable law, shall remain in effect until all such Obligations have been fully and finally discharged and paid. Accordingly, each Borrower and Guarantor waives any rights it may have under the UCC to demand the filing of termination statements with respect to the Collateral and Administrative Agent shall not be required to send such termination statements to Borrowers or Guarantors, or to file them with any filing office, in each case, unless and until this Agreement shall have been terminated in accordance with its terms and all Obligations paid and satisfied in full in immediately available funds.

(a)All terms used herein which are defined in Article 1, Article 8 or Article 9 of the UCC shall have the meanings given therein unless otherwise defined in this Agreement.

(g)All references to the term “good faith” used herein when applicable to Administrative Agent or any Lender shall mean, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in the UCC, honesty in fact in the conduct or transaction concerned and the observance of reasonable commercial standards of fair dealing based on how an asset-based lender with similar rights providing a credit facility of the type set forth herein would act in similar circumstances at the time with the information then available to it. Borrowers and Guarantors shall have the burden of proving any lack of good faith on the part of Administrative Agent or any Lender alleged by any Borrower or Guarantor at any time.

(h)Any accounting term used in this Agreement shall have, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, the meaning customarily given in accordance with GAAP, and all financial computations hereunder shall be computed unless otherwise specifically provided herein, in accordance with GAAP as consistently applied and using the same method for inventory valuation as used in the preparation of the financial statements of Parent most recently received by Administrative Agent prior to the Effective Date or such other method as may be acceptable to Administrative Agent. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in GAAP or any interpretations or other pronouncements by the Financial Accounting Standards Board or otherwise, the term “unqualified opinion” as used herein to refer to opinions or reports provided by accountants shall mean an opinion or report that is not only unqualified (other than by reason of an exception as to consistency related to new accounting pronouncements or method change under GAAP) but also does not include any explanation, supplemental comment or other comment or note concerning the ability of the applicable person to continue as a going concern. If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio, requirement or other provision set forth in any Financing Agreement, and either the Lead Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Lead Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio, requirement or other provision to preserve the original intent thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided, that, until so amended, (i) such ratio, requirement or other provision shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Lead Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio, requirement or other provision made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP.

(i)In the computation of periods of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including”, the words “to” and “until” each mean “to but excluding” and the word “through” means “to and including”.

(j)Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, (i) references herein to any agreement, document or instrument shall be deemed to include all subsequent amendments, modifications, supplements, extensions, renewals, restatements or replacements with respect thereto, but only to the extent the same are not prohibited by the terms hereof or of any other

Financing Agreement, and (ii) references to any statute or regulation are to be construed as including all statutory and regulatory provisions consolidating, amending, replacing, recodifying, supplementing or interpreting the statute or regulation.

(m)This Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are the result of negotiations among and have been reviewed by counsel to Administrative Agent and the other parties, and are the products of all parties. Accordingly, this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements shall not be construed against Administrative Agent or Lenders merely because of Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s involvement in their preparation.

(a)Administrative Agent and each Lender shall use all reasonable efforts to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information and safe and sound lending practices, any material non-public information supplied to it by any Borrower pursuant to this Agreement, provided, that, nothing contained herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information: (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation, subpoena or court order, (ii) to bank examiners and other regulators, auditors and/or accountants, in connection with any litigation to which Administrative Agent or such Lender is a party or as may be requested or required by any Governmental Authority, (iii) to any Lender (or its agents or other representatives) or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant) or to any Affiliate of any Lender ,so long as such Lender (or its agents or other representatives) or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant) or Affiliate shall have been instructed to treat such information as confidential in accordance with this Section 13.5, or (iv) to counsel for Administrative Agent or any Lender or Participant (or prospective Lender or Participant).

(b)In the event that Administrative Agent or any Lender receives a request or demand to disclose any confidential information pursuant to any subpoena or court order, Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees (i) to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Administrative Agent or such Lender, Administrative Agent or such Lender will promptly notify Lead Borrower of such request so that Lead Borrower may seek a protective order or other appropriate relief or remedy and (ii) if disclosure of such information is required, disclose such information and, subject to reimbursement by Borrowers of Administrative Agent’s or such Lender’s expenses, cooperate with Lead Borrower in the reasonable efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portion of the disclosed information which Lead Borrower so designates, to the extent permitted by applicable law or if permitted by applicable law, to the extent Administrative Agent or such Lender determines in good faith that it will not create any risk of liability to Administrative Agent or such Lender.

(c)In no event shall this Section 13.5 or any other provision of this Agreement, any of the other Financing Agreements or applicable law be deemed: (i) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that has been or is made public by any Borrower, Guarantor or any third party or otherwise becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure in violation hereof, (ii) to apply to or restrict disclosure of information that was or becomes available to Administrative Agent or any Lender (or any Affiliate of any Lender) on a non-confidential basis from a person other than a Borrower or Guarantor, (iii) to require

Administrative Agent or any Lender to return any materials furnished by a Borrower or Guarantor to Administrative Agent or a Lender or prevent Administrative Agent or a Lender from responding to routine informational requests in accordance with the Code of Ethics for the Exchange of Credit Information promulgated by The Robert Morris Associates or other applicable industry standards relating to the exchange of credit information. The obligations of Administrative Agent and Lenders under this Section 13.5 shall supersede and replace the obligations of Administrative Agent and Lenders under any confidentiality letter signed prior to the Effective Date.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any of the other Financing Agreements or any other written or oral understanding or agreement, (i) any obligations of confidentiality contained herein, in any of the other Financing Agreements or any such other understanding or agreement do not apply and have not applied from the commencement of discussions between the parties to the tax treatment and tax structure of the transactions contemplated herein (and any related transactions or arrangements), and (ii) each party (and each of its employees, representatives, or other agents) may disclose to any and all persons the tax treatment and tax structuring of the transactions contemplated herein and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to such party relating to such tax treatment and tax structure, all within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4; provided, that, each party recognizes that the privilege that it may, in its discretion, maintain with respect to the confidentiality of a communication relating to the transactions contemplated herein, including a confidential communication with its attorney or a confidential communication with a federally authorized tax practitioner under Section 7525 of the Internal Revenue Code, is not intended to be affected by the foregoing. Borrowers and Guarantors do not intend to treat the Loans and related transactions as being a “reportable transaction” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4). In the event Borrowers or Guarantors determine to take any action inconsistent with such intention, it will promptly notify Administrative Agent thereof. Each Borrower and Guarantor acknowledges that one or more of Lenders may treat its Loans as part of a transaction that is subject to Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4 or Section 301.6112-1, and the Administrative Agent and such Lender or Lenders, as applicable, may file such IRS forms or maintain such lists and other records as they may determine is required by such Treasury Regulations.

. This Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and any other document referred to herein or therein shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by Administrative Agent, Lenders, Borrowers, Guarantors and their respective successors and assigns, except that Borrower may not assign its rights under this Agreement, the other Financing Agreements and any other document referred to herein or therein without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent and Lenders. Any such purported assignment without such express prior written consent shall be void. No Lender may assign its rights and obligations under this Agreement without the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, except as provided in Section 13.7 below. The terms and provisions of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements are for the purpose of defining the relative rights and obligations of Borrowers, Guarantors, Administrative Agent and Lenders with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and there shall be no third party beneficiaries of any of the terms and provisions of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements.

(a)Each Lender may, with the prior written consent of Administrative Agent, Swing Line Lender, Issuing Bank and Lead Borrower, which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed (which consent of Lead Borrower shall not be required (i) at any time a Default or Event of Default exists or has occurred and is continuing or (ii) in connection with an assignment to a Person that is a Lender, an Affiliate (other than individuals) of a Lender or an Approved Fund so long as no Default or Event of Default exists at the time of such assignment), assign all or, if less than all, (A) with respect to assignments of the Tranche A Revolving Loans, a portion equal to at least $5,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Tranche A Lender, (B) with respect to assignments of the Tranche A-1 Revolving Loans, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Tranche A-1 Lender and (C) with respect to assignments of the Tranche A-2 Term Loans, a portion equal to at least $1,000,000 in the aggregate for the assigning Tranche A-2 Lender, of such rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Eligible Transferees (but not including for this purpose any assignments in the form of a participation), each of which assignees shall become a party to this Agreement as a Lender by execution of an Assignment and Acceptance; provided, that, (i) such transfer or assignment will not be effective until recorded by Administrative Agent on the Register and (ii) Administrative Agent shall have received for its sole account payment of a processing fee from the assigning Lender or the assignee in the amount of $5,000.

Administrative Agent shall also maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and shall modify the Register to give effect to each Assignment and Acceptance. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error, and any Borrowers, Guarantors, Administrative Agent and Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Lead Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(c)Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and to the other Financing Agreements and, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned to it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations (including, without limitation, the obligation to participate in Letter of Credit Accommodations) of a Lender hereunder and thereunder and the assigning Lender shall, to the extent that rights and obligations hereunder have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement.

sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any of the other Financing Agreements furnished pursuant hereto, (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Borrower, Obligor or any of their Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Borrower or Obligor of any of the Obligations; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements, together with such other documents and information 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 assigning Lender, Administrative Agent 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 and the other Financing Agreements, (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes Administrative Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Financing Agreements as are delegated to Administrative Agent by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such 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 and the other Financing Agreements are required to be performed by it as a Lender. Administrative Agent and Lenders may furnish any information concerning any Borrower or Obligor in the possession of Administrative Agent or any Lender from time to time to assignees and Participants.
