NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of these premises and for other good and valuable consideration, effective as of the Closing Date (as defined below), the parties do hereby agree as follows:

“ABR” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the NYFRB Rate in effect on such day plus ½ of 1% and (c) the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for a one month Interest Period as published two U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1.00%; provided that, for the purpose of this definition, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for any day shall be based on the Term SOFR Reference Rate at approximately 5:00 A.M. Chicago time on such day (or any amended publication time for the Term SOFR Reference Rate, as specified by the CME Term SOFR Administrator in the Term SOFR Reference Rate methodology). Any change in the ABR due to a change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, respectively. If the ABR is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to Section 5.17, then the ABR shall be the greater of clause (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the ABR shall be less than 1.50%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.50% for purposes of this Agreement.

“Adjusted Term SOFR Rate” means, for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum equal to (a) the Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period, plus (b) 0.10%; provided that if the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate as so determined would be less than the Floor, such rate shall be deemed to be equal to the Floor for purposes of this Agreement.

“Adjustment Date” has the meaning specified in the definition of “Applicable Margin”.

“Administrative Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., in its capacity as administrative agent under any of the Credit Documents, or any permitted successor administrative agent.

1.4 Divisions

For all purposes under the Credit Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

1.5 Interest Rates; Benchmark Notifications

The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 5.17(b) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Company. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Company, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

1.6 Limited Condition Transactions

In connection with determining whether any Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder, for which determination requires the calculation of any financial ratio, test or basket, each calculated on a pro forma basis, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination shall be deemed to be (a) the date the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into, (b) in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction described in clause (i) of the definition thereof, if such Limited Condition Transaction will not be consummated prior to the date that is 90 days after the date of such definitive agreement, then on the date that is 91 days after the date of such definitive agreement (provided that such transaction shall no longer constitute a Limited Condition Transaction if it is not consummated within 180 days after the date of such definitive agreement) or (c) in the case of a Limited Condition Transaction described in clause (ii) of the definition thereof, if such Limited Condition Transaction will not be consummated prior to the date that is 30 days after the date of such definitive agreement, then on the date that is 31 days after the date of such definitive agreement (provided that such transaction shall no longer constitute a Limited Condition Transaction if it is not consummated within 60 days after the date of such definitive agreement) (as applicable, the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction, such Limited Condition Transaction would have been permitted on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such provision. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has made an LCT Election, (1) if any of the ratios, tests or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of an LCT Test Date would at any time after such LCT Test Date have been exceeded or otherwise failed to have been complied with as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, test or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Credit Parties, such baskets, tests or ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded or failed to have been complied with as a result of such fluctuations (and no Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to have occurred due to such failure to comply), and (2) in calculating the availability under any ratio, test or basket in connection with any action or transaction unrelated to such Limited Conditional Transaction following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated and the date that the definitive agreement or date for redemption, purchase or repayment specified in an irrevocable notice for such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated, expires or passes, as applicable, without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio, test or basket shall be determined or tested giving pro forma effect to such Limited Condition Transaction.

1.7 Performance

When payment of any obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty or obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment or performance shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

1.8 Additional Alternative Currencies

(a) The Company may from time to time request that Letters of Credit be issued in Canadian dollars; provided that such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender and the aggregate amount of Letters of Credit that may be issued in Canadian dollars may not exceed $20,000,000.

(b) Unless otherwise specified herein, the amount of a Letter of Credit at any time shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the stated amount of such Letter of Credit in effect at such time; provided, however, that with respect to any Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof, the amount of such Letter of Credit shall be deemed to be the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at such time.

1.9 Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents

(a) Without limiting the other terms of this Agreement, the calculations and determinations under this Agreement of any amount (including any amount in any currency other than Dollars) shall be deemed to refer to the Dollar Equivalent thereof and all Borrowing Base Certificates delivered under this Agreement shall express such calculations or determinations in the Dollar Equivalent thereof.

(b) For purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, the Dollar Equivalent of the Borrowing Base and any Letters of Credit and other Obligations shall be determined in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Such Dollar Equivalent shall become effective as of the determination date for the Borrowing Base and for Letters of Credit and other Obligations and shall be the Dollar Equivalent until the next determination date to occur for the Borrowing Base and for such Letters of Credit and other Obligations.

2. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF REVOLVING CREDIT COMMITMENTS

2.1 Revolving Credit Commitments

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender agrees to extend credit, in an aggregate amount not to exceed such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment, to the Company from time to time on any Borrowing Date during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period by purchasing an L/C Participating Interest in each Letter of Credit issued by the Issuing Lender and by making loans to the Company (Revolving Credit Loans) from time to time. Revolving Credit Loans shall be denominated in Dollars. Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to the Administrative Agent’s authority, in its reasonable discretion, to make Protective Advances pursuant to Section 2.8, in no event shall (i) any Revolving Credit Loan be made, or any Letter of Credit be issued, if, after giving effect thereto and the use of proceeds thereof as irrevocably directed by the Company, the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Extensions of Credit would exceed the Line Cap then in effect or (ii) any Revolving Credit Loan be made, or any Letter of Credit be issued, if the amount of such Loan to be made or any Letter of Credit to be issued would, after giving effect to the use of proceeds, if any, thereof, exceed the Available Revolving Credit Commitments. Subject to the foregoing, during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period, the Company may use the Revolving Credit Commitments by borrowing, repaying the Revolving Credit Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions hereof, and/or by having the Issuing Lender issue Letters of Credit, having such Letters of Credit expire undrawn upon or if drawn upon, reimbursing the relevant Issuing Lender for such drawing, and having the Issuing Lender issue new Letters of Credit.

(b) Each borrowing of Revolving Credit Loans shall be in an aggregate principal amount of the lesser of (i) $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and (ii) the Available Revolving Credit Commitments, except that any borrowing of a Revolving Credit Loan to be used solely to pay the like amount of an L/C Disbursement may be in the principal amount of such L/C Disbursement.

(c) Any Protective Advance and any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 2.08 and 2.09.

2.2 Proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans

The Company shall use the proceeds of Revolving Credit Loans solely for financing the working capital or general corporate purposes of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries (including making payments to an Issuing Lender to reimburse the Issuing Lender for drawings made under the Letters of Credit), including on the Closing Date to pay fees and expenses related to the transactions contemplated hereby and to refinance the Indebtedness outstanding under the Existing Revolving Credit Agreement and Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement and to pay fees (including any call premium payable by the Company in connection with the prepayment of the Existing Term Loan Credit Agreement). Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Credit Party will request any Loans, and no Credit Party shall use, and shall procure that their Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and, to the knowledge of any Credit Party, agents, shall not use, the proceeds of any Revolving Credit Loan or Letter of Credit (A) 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 Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country, or (C) in any manner that would result in the violation of any Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.

2.3 Issuance of Letters of Credit

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Company may from time to time during the Revolving Credit Commitment Period request any Issuing Lender to issue a Letter of Credit (including a counter-standby Letter of Credit) denominated in Dollars or Canadian dollars by delivering to the Administrative Agent at its address specified in Section 12.2 and the Issuing Lender an L/C Application completed to the satisfaction of the Issuing Lender, together with the proposed form of the Letter of Credit (which shall comply with the applicable requirements of clause (b) below) and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as the Issuing Lender may reasonably request; provided that if the Issuing Lender informs the Company that it is for any reason unable to open such Letter of Credit, the Company may request another Lender to open such Letter of Credit upon the same terms offered to the initial Issuing Lender and if such other Lender agrees to issue such Letter of Credit each reference to the Issuing Lender for purposes of the Credit Documents shall be deemed to be a reference to such Lender. Letters of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or Canadian dollars.

(b) Each Letter of Credit issued hereunder shall, among other things, (i) be in such form requested by the Company as shall be acceptable to the Issuing Lender in its sole discretion and (ii) subject to clause (c) below, have an expiry date occurring not later than the earlier of (A) three hundred and sixty-five (365) days after the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that the Specified Letter of Credit may have an expiry date not later than June 29, 2022.

(c) If the Company so requests in the applicable L/C Application, the Issuing Lender may agree to issue a Letter of Credit with a one-year tenor that has automatic extension or renewal provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that (x) any such Auto‑Extension Letter of Credit must permit the Issuing Lender to prevent any such extension or renewal at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a certain number of days prior to each anniversary of such Letter of Credit’s date of issuance (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”), such number of days to be agreed upon by the Company and the Issuing Lender at the time such Letter of Credit is issued and (y) such prior notice shall be deemed to have been given by the Issuing Lender on the effective date of its resignation as Issuing Lender in accordance with Section 11.9. Unless otherwise directed by the Issuing Lender, the Company shall not be required to make a specific request to the Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Revolving Credit Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not later than five (5) Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided, however, that the Issuing Lender shall not permit any such extension if (A) the Issuing Lender has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.1(a), Section 2.5 or otherwise), or (B) it has received written notice on or before the day that is thirty (30) days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Revolving Credit Lender or the Company that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 7.2 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing the Issuing Lender not to permit such extension.

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Lender shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit (i) the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (A) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (B) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement, (ii) if any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Lender from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law relating to the Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Lender shall prohibit, or request that the Issuing Lender refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which the Issuing Lender is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Closing Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Lender any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense which was not applicable on the Closing Date and which the Issuing Lender in good faith deems material to it, or (iii) if the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Lender applicable to letters of credit generally.

2.4 Participating Interests

Effective in the case of each Letter of Credit opened by the Issuing Lender as of the date of the opening thereof and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders, the Issuing Lender hereby grants to itself and each other Revolving Credit Lender, and each Revolving Credit Lender severally and irrevocably agrees to take and does take in such Letter of Credit and the related L/C Application, an L/C Participating Interest in a percentage equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each such Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars, for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Lender, in each case to the extent not reimbursed by the Company on the date due as provided in Section 2.6, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Company for any reason.

Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to this Section 2.4 is absolute and unconditional as set forth in Section 5.16.

2.5 Procedure for Opening Letters of Credit

Upon receipt of any L/C Application from the Company in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lender will promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and the Administrative Agent will notify each Revolving Credit Lender. The Issuing Lender will process such L/C Application, and the other certificates, documents and other papers delivered to the Issuing Lender in connection therewith, upon receipt thereof in accordance with its customary procedures and, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, shall promptly open such Letter of Credit by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof and by furnishing a copy thereof to the Company; provided that no such Letter of Credit shall be issued (i) if the amount of such requested Letter of Credit, together with the sum of (A) the aggregate unpaid amount of Revolving L/C Obligations outstanding at the time of such request and (B) the maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time, would exceed $250,000,000, (ii) if the amount of such requested Letter of Credit, together with the sum of (A) the

aggregate unpaid amount of Revolving L/C Obligations outstanding at the time of such request with respect to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender and (B) the maximum aggregate amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit outstanding at such time issued by such Issuing Lender, would exceed such Issuing Lender’s Issuing Lender Sublimit or (iii) if Section 2.1 would be violated thereby.

2.6 Payments in Respect of Letters of Credit

(a) If the Issuing Lender shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Company shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement in Dollars, (i) not later than 1:00 P.M., New York City time, on the same Business Day if the Company receives notice of such L/C Disbursement at or before 11:00 A.M. New York City time on such Business Day, or (ii) if the Company receives a notice of disbursement after 11:00 A.M. New York City time not later than 1:00 P.M. New York City time, on the Business Day immediately following the date that the Company receives such notice; provided that the Company may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 5.1 that such payment be financed with an ABR Loan or a Swingline Loan, which is a Revolving Credit Loan in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Company’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Loan or Swingline Loan which is a Revolving Credit Loan.

(b) If an Issuing Lender shall make any L/C Disbursement, then, unless the Company shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on the date such L/C Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such L/C Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Company reimburses such L/C Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Loans; provided that, if the Company fails to reimburse such L/C Disbursement when due pursuant to clause (b) of this Section, then, Section 5.7(d) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to clause (a) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Revolving Credit Lender to the extent of such payment. If the Company fails to make such payment when due, then the Administrative Agent shall notify the applicable Issuing Lender and each other applicable Revolving Credit Lender of the applicable L/C Disbursement, the payment then due from the Company in respect thereof and such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each applicable Revolving Credit Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the Company (and Section 5.18(b) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Credit Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Lender in Dollars the amounts so received by it from such Revolving Credit Lender. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Company pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Revolving Credit Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Revolving Credit Lenders and the applicable Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse any Issuing Lender for any L/C Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans or Swingline Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Company of its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement.

(c) Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Lender has made a payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any other Revolving Credit Lender such other Revolving Credit Lender’s pro-rata share of the Revolving L/C Obligation arising therefrom, the Issuing Lender receives any reimbursement on account of such Revolving L/C Obligation or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Issuing Lender will distribute to such other Revolving Credit Lender, through the Administrative Agent, its pro-rata share thereof in like funds as received (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during which such Revolving Credit Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided that, in the event that the receipt by the Issuing Lender of such reimbursement or such payment of interest (as the case may be) is required to be returned, such other Revolving Credit Lender will promptly return to the Issuing Lender, through the Administrative Agent, any portion thereof previously distributed by the Issuing Lender to it in like funds as such reimbursement or payment is required to be returned by the Issuing Lender.

(d) The Company shall pay to each Issuing Lender, each of the fees set forth in Section 5.11.

2.7 Eligible Cash Account

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may request that all or a portion of Eligible Cash Collateral be transferred to another Controlled Account of the Credit Parties that is not fully-blocked, it being understood that upon such transfer, Eligible Cash Collateral shall be reduced by the amount of such transferred cash. Upon such request, the Administrative Agent may, at its Permitted

Discretion, promptly transfer such cash as directed by the Company so long as such transfer would not cause the Aggregate Revolving Credit Extensions of Credit to exceed the Line Cap.

2.8 Protective Advances

(a) Subject to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, may make Revolving Credit Loans to the Company on behalf of the Lenders, if the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems that such Revolving Credit Loans are necessary or desirable (i) to protect all or any portion of the Collateral, (ii) to enhance the likelihood or maximize the amount of repayment of the Loans and the other Obligations or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to the Company pursuant to this Agreement (such Revolving Credit Loans, “Protective Advances”); provided that (A) the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time shall not at any time exceed 10% of the Line Cap, (B) in no event shall the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Extensions of Credit exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments and (C) the Majority Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative Agent’s authorization to make future Protective Advances (provided that existing Protective Advances shall not be subject to such revocation and any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof). At any time that the conditions for making a Revolving Credit Loan are satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Lenders to make a Revolving Credit Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any other time the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participation described in Section 2.8(b).

(b) Upon the making of a Protective Advance, each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent (regardless of the existence of any Event of Default or other condition), without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance based upon their Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance.

(c) All Protective Advances shall be secured by the Collateral and shall bear interest as provided in this Agreement for ABR Loans.

2.9 Swingline Loans

(a) The Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, promptly after the Company requests a borrowing of ABR Loans in accordance with the requirements of Article 5, the Swingline Lender may elect to have the terms of this Section 2.09(a) apply to such request by advancing, on behalf of the Lenders and in the amount requested, same day funds to the Company on the date of the applicable borrowing to the account of the Company designated by the Company (each such Loan made solely by the Swingline Lender pursuant to this Section 2.09(a) is referred to in this Agreement as a “Swingline Loan”), with settlement among them as to the Swingline Loans to take place on a periodic basis as set forth in Section 2.09(c). Each Swingline Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other ABR Loans funded by the Lenders, except that all payments thereon shall be payable to the Swingline Lender solely for its own account. The aggregate amount of Swingline Loans that may be outstanding hereunder shall not exceed $25,000,000 unless the Swingline Lender agrees in its sole discretion; provided that the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans that may be outstanding hereunder shall not exceed $50,000,000.

(b) Upon the making of a Swingline Loan (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement has been requested with respect to such Swingline Loan), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan in proportion to its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the Revolving Credit Commitment. The Swingline Lender may, at any time, require the Lenders to fund their participations. From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Swingline Loan purchased hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of all payments of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Swingline Lender, shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Lenders on at least a weekly basis or on any date that the Administrative Agent elects, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement by facsimile, telephone, or e-mail no later than 1:00 P.M. New York time on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement Date”). Each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender, in the case of the Swingline Loans) shall transfer the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested to the

Administrative Agent, to such account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default and whether or not the applicable conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.02 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Administrative Agent shall be applied against the amounts of the Swingline Lender’s Swingline Loans and, together with Swingline Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Swingline Loan, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Revolving Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred to the Administrative Agent by any Revolving Lender on such Settlement Date, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, as specified in Section 2.09.

3. AMOUNT AND TERMS OF INCREMENTAL LOANS

3.1 Requests for Incremental Loans

Upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders) at any time after the Closing Date but prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date, the Company may request additional revolving loan commitments or increases in the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments (each such additional commitment or increase, a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase” and all of them, collectively, the “Revolving Credit Commitments Increases”); provided that after giving effect to any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments Increases that have been added pursuant to this Section 3.1 shall not exceed (a) $100,000,000 after the Second Amendment Effective Date and prior to the date on which the Commitments are reduced to an amount that is no greater than $500,000,000 pursuant to Section 8.21 and (b) $200,000,000 after the date on which the Commitments are reduced to an amount that is no greater than $500,000,000 pursuant to Section 8.21. Any loans made in respect of any such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (the “Incremental Revolving Credit Loans”) shall be made by increasing the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments with terms identical to those of the existing Revolving Credit Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase effected pursuant to this Article 3 shall be in a minimum amount of at least $10,000,000 and (ii) no more than four Revolving Credit Commitment Increases may be selected by the Company after the Second Amendment Effective Date.

3.2 Ranking and Other Provisions

The Incremental Revolving Credit Loans (i) shall have the same guarantees as, and rank pari passu in right of payment and in respect of lien priority as to the Collateral with the Obligations in respect of, the Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation identical as, and treated substantially the same as, the Revolving Credit Loans.

3.3 Notices; Lender Elections

The notice from the Company to the Administrative Agent delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the Revolving Credit Commitments Increases, which proposed terms shall not be inconsistent with the requirements of Section 3.2. At the time of the sending of such notice, the Company (in consultation with the Administrative Agent) shall specify the time period within which each Lender is requested to respond (which shall in no event be less than ten (10) days from the date of delivery of such notice to the Lenders). Incremental Revolving Credit Loans (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by any other bank or financial institution (any such bank or other financial institution, an “Incremental Lender”), in each case on terms permitted in this Article 3 and otherwise on terms reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided that the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender (in the case of the Issuing Lender, solely in the event the Incremental Lender is not an existing Lender) shall have consented (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) to such Lender’s or Incremental Lender’s, as the case may be, making such Incremental Revolving Credit Loans if such consent would be required under Section 12.6 for an assignment of Loans to such Lender or Incremental Lender, as the case may be. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, unless it so agrees. Each Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent within such time period whether or not it agrees to provide a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and, if so, whether by an amount equal to, greater than, or less than its Commitment Percentage of such requested increase (which shall be calculated on the basis of the amount of the funded and unfunded exposure under all the Loans held by each Lender). Any Lender not responding within such time period shall be deemed to have declined to provide a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Company and each Lender of the Lenders’ responses to each request made hereunder. To achieve the full amount of a requested increase, the Company may also invite additional Eligible Assignees to become Incremental Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and its counsel.

3.4 Incremental Facility Amendment

Revolving Credit Commitments Increases shall become Commitments (or in the case of any Revolving Credit Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Credit Lender, an increase in such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Credit Documents, executed by the Company, each Lender agreeing to provide such

Commitment, if any, each Incremental Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent. An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Credit Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Article 3.

3.5 Effective Date and Allocations

If any Revolving Credit Commitments Increases are added in accordance with this Article 3, the Administrative Agent and the Company shall determine the effective date (the “Incremental Commitments Effective Date”) and the final allocation of such Revolving Credit Commitments Increases. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of the final allocation of such Revolving Credit Commitments Increases and the Incremental Commitments Effective Date.

3.6 Conditions to Effectiveness of Increase

The effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent, each Lender party thereto, if any, and the Incremental Lenders, if any, be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof (the “Incremental Facility Closing Date”) of each of the following conditions:

(a) the Administrative Agent shall have received on or prior to the Incremental Facility Closing Date each of the following, each dated the Incremental Facility Closing Date unless otherwise indicated or agreed to by the Administrative Agent and each in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent: (i) the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment; (ii) certified copies of resolutions of the board of directors of each Credit Party approving the execution, delivery and performance of the Incremental Facility Amendment; and (iii) a favorable opinion of counsel for the Credit Parties dated the Incremental Facility Closing Date, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, addressed to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and in form and substance and from counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;

(b) (i) the conditions precedent set forth in Section 7.2 shall have been satisfied both before and after giving effect to such Incremental Facility Amendment and the additional Extensions of Credit provided thereby (it being understood that all references to “the obligation of any Lender to make a Loan on the occasion of any Borrowing” shall be deemed to refer to the effectiveness of the Incremental Facility Amendment on the Incremental Facility Closing Date) and (ii) all Incremental Revolving Credit Loans provided by the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment shall be made on the terms and conditions provided for above; and

(c) there shall have been paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (including any Person becoming a Lender as part of such Incremental Facility Amendment on the related Incremental Facility Closing Date), as applicable, all fees and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, charges and disbursements of one outside counsel and, if necessary, one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction) invoiced with reasonable supporting documentation that are due and payable on or before the Incremental Facility Closing Date.

3.7 Effect of Incremental Facility Amendment

On the Incremental Commitments Effective Date, each Lender or Eligible Assignee which is providing a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (i) shall become a “Lender” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents and (ii) shall have a Revolving Credit Commitment Increase which shall become a “Commitment” hereunder.

3.8 Revolving Credit Commitment Increases

Upon each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase pursuant to this Article 3, (i) each Revolving Credit Lender immediately prior to such increase will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assigned to each existing Lender, if any, and each Incremental Lender, if any, in each case providing a portion of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase (each a “Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender”), and each such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such Revolving Credit Lender’s participation interests hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit such that, after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase and each such deemed assignment and assumption of participation interests, the percentage of the aggregate outstanding participation interests hereunder in Letters of Credit held by each Revolving Credit Lender (including such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender) will equal such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage and (ii) if, on the date of such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, there are any Revolving Credit Loans outstanding, the Administrative Agent shall take those steps which it deems, in its sole discretion and in consultation with the Company, necessary and appropriate to result in each Revolving Credit Lender (including each Revolving Credit Commitment Increase Lender) having a pro-rata share of the outstanding Revolving Credit Loans based on each such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage immediately after giving effect to such Revolving Credit Commitment Increase, provided that any prepayment made in connection with the taking of any such steps shall be accompanied by accrued interest

on the Revolving Credit Loans being prepaid and any costs incurred by any Lender in accordance with Section 5.21. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro-rata borrowing and pro-rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to any transaction that may be effected pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence.

3.9 Conflicting Provisions

The provisions of this Article 3 shall supersede any provision of Section 5.18 or 12.1 to the contrary.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any funds credited to the Asset Sale Reserve Account constitute Net Proceeds of a Notes Priority Collateral Prepayment Event, the application of such proceeds shall be subject to Section 5.6(c).

(e) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 5.2(c) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Company therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Company to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to such Company by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

5.3 Conversion and Continuation Options

(a) The Company may elect from time to time to convert Term Benchmark Loans into ABR Loans by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election, to be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 pm, New York City time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed conversion date, provided that any such conversion of Term Benchmark Loans shall only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. The Company may elect from time to time to convert all or a portion of the ABR Loans then outstanding to Term Benchmark Loans by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election, to be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed conversion date, specifying the Interest Period selected therefor, and, if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, such conversion shall be made on the requested conversion date or, if such requested conversion date is not a Business Day, on the next succeeding Business Day. Upon receipt of any notice pursuant to this Section 5.3, the Administrative Agent shall promptly, but in any event by 2:00 P.M., New York City time, notify each Lender thereof. All or any part of the outstanding Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that partial conversions of Loans shall be in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, and the aggregate principal amount of the resulting Term Benchmark Loans outstanding in respect of any one Interest Period shall be at least $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. This Section 5.3 shall not apply to Swingline Loans or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) So long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Company may elect from time to time to continue Term Benchmark Loans upon the expiry of the then current Interest Period with respect to such Term Benchmark Loans by giving the Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election, signed by a Responsible Officer of the Company, to be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the end of such Interest Period, in each case specifying the new Interest Period selected therefor, provided that any such continuation shall only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto.

5.4 Changes of Commitment Amounts

(a) The Company shall have the right, upon not less than three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, to terminate or, from time to time, reduce the Revolving Credit Commitments subject to the provisions of this Section 5.4. To the extent, if any, that the sum of the Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Obligations then outstanding and the amounts available to be drawn under outstanding Letters of Credit exceeds the Line Cap (after giving effect to the Revolving Credit Commitments as then reduced), the Company shall be required to make a prepayment equal to such excess amount, the proceeds of which shall be applied first, to prepay any Protective Advances, second, to payment of the Revolving Credit Loans then outstanding, third, to payment of any Revolving L/C Obligations then outstanding, and fourth, to Cash Collateralize any outstanding Letters of Credit on terms reasonably satisfactory to the

Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Lender.

Upon termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, any Letter of Credit then outstanding which has been so Cash Collateralized shall no longer be considered a “Letter of Credit”, as defined in Section 1.1 and any L/C Participating Interests heretofore granted by the Issuing Lender to the Lenders in such Letter of Credit shall be deemed terminated (subject to automatic reinstatement in the event that such cash collateral is returned and the Issuing Lender is not fully reimbursed for any such Revolving L/C Obligations), but the Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 5.11 shall continue to accrue to the Issuing Lender (or, in the event of any such automatic reinstatement, as provided in Section 5.11) with respect to such Letter of Credit until the expiry thereof.

(b) Interest accrued on the amount of any partial prepayment pursuant to this Section 5.4 to the date of such partial prepayment shall be paid on the Interest Payment Date next succeeding the date of such partial prepayment.

5.5 Optional Prepayments

The Company may at any time and from time to time prepay Loans, in whole or in part, upon irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (i) on any Business Day (to be received no later than 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on such Business Day) in the case of ABR Loans or Swingline Loans, (ii) one (1) Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (to be received no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on such Business Day) in the case of Term Benchmark Loans or (iii) five (5) U.S. Government Securities Business Days’ irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (to be received no later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on such Business Day) in the case of RFR Loans and specifying the date and amount of prepayment; provided that RFR Loans and Term Benchmark Loans prepaid on any date other than the last day of any Interest Period with respect thereto shall be prepaid subject to the provisions of Section 5.21. Upon receipt of such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. If such notice is given, the Company shall make such prepayment, and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable, on the date specified therein. Accrued interest on the amount of any Loans paid in full pursuant to this Section 5.5 shall be paid on the date of such prepayment. Accrued interest on the amount of any partial prepayment shall be paid on the Interest Payment Date next succeeding the date of such partial prepayment. Partial prepayments shall be in an aggregate principal amount equal to the lesser of (A) $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof and (B) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the applicable Loans, as the case may be.

5.6 Mandatory Prepayments

(d) Within five (5) Business Days of the date of incurrence by any Credit Party or any Restricted Subsidiary of any Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness permitted by Section 9.2), the Company shall prepay Revolving Credit Loans and Cash Collateralize the Revolving L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to 100% of the net proceeds received by such Person in connection with such incurrence. The provisions of this Section 5.6(d) shall not be deemed to be implied consent to any such incurrence otherwise prohibited by the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(e) If, at the end of any Excess Cash Test Date there are Revolving Credit Loans and/or Revolving L/C Obligations outstanding and the Credit Parties and their Restricted Subsidiaries have Excess Cash exceeding $25,000,000, the Company shall prepay Revolving Credit Loans and Cash Collateralize the Revolving L/C Obligations in an aggregate amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount of such Excess Cash minus $25,000,000 minus the amount of any wires initiated or ACH transfers issued by any Credit Party in the ordinary course of business after the end of such Excess Cash Test Date and prior to 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date that such prepayment is required to be made and (ii) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Loans and Revolving L/C Obligations then outstanding by 12:00 P.M., New York City time on the next Business Day; provided that prepayments under this Section 5.6(e) shall not require the Company to pay any breakage under Section 5.21.

The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Lenders of each determination of the Relevant Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change in the ABR becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Company and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Company and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error.

(b) The Commitment Fee provided for in this Section 5.9 shall (i) accrue from the Closing Date and (ii) be payable quarterly in arrears on the first Business Day after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company commencing with the first such day to occur after the Closing Date and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

5.10 Certain Fees

The Company agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for its own account a non-refundable agent’s fee, and to JPMCB all other fees, in each case, in the amount and payable on such dates as provided in the Fee Letter (as the same may be amended, supplemented, and restated or otherwise modified from time to time).

5.11 Letter of Credit Fees

(a) The Company agrees to pay the Administrative Agent a Letter of Credit fee in Dollars, for the account of the Issuing Lender and the Participating Lenders, on the daily outstanding amount available to be drawn under each Letter of Credit at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Term Benchmark Loans in effect on such day, whether or not there are any such Term Benchmark Loans outstanding at such time, payable in arrears, on the first Business Day after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date.

(b) In addition, notwithstanding the specification of any inconsistent fronting or other similar fee contained in any L/C Application, the Company shall pay to the Issuing Lender (solely for its own account as Issuing Lender of such Letter of Credit and not on account of its L/C Participating Interest therein) with respect to each Letter of Credit, during the period from and including the Closing Date to the Revolving Credit Termination Date and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date, (i) a fronting fee equal to 0.125% per annum times the daily maximum amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit; and (ii) the Issuing Lender’s standard documentary, processing, administrative, issuance, amendment and negotiation fees and out of pocket expenses only, in connection with Letters of Credit. Any such fees shall be payable on the first Business Day after the last day of each fiscal quarter of the Company and on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. Any such fees accruing after the Revolving Credit Termination Date shall be payable on demand. Any other fees, costs and expenses payable to the Issuing Lender pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within ten (10) days after demand by the Issuing Lender.

5.12 Letter of Credit Reserves

(a) If any Change in Law after the date of this Agreement shall either (i) impose, modify, deem or make applicable any reserve, special deposit, assessment or similar requirement against letters of credit issued by the Issuing Lender or (ii) impose on the Issuing Lender any other condition regarding this Agreement or any Letter of Credit, and the result of any event referred to in clause (i) or (ii) above shall be to increase the cost to the Issuing Lender of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (which increase in cost shall be the result of the Issuing Lender’s reasonable allocation of the aggregate of such cost increases resulting from such events), then, upon demand by the Issuing

Lender, the Company shall immediately pay to the Issuing Lender, from time to time as specified by the Issuing Lender, additional amounts which shall be sufficient to compensate the Issuing Lender for such increased cost, together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans. A certificate submitted by the Issuing Lender to the Company concurrently with any such demand by the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the amount thereof.

(b) In the event that at any time after the date hereof any Change in Law with respect to the Issuing Lender shall, in the opinion of the Issuing Lender, require that any obligation under any Letter of Credit be treated as an asset or otherwise be included for purposes of calculating the appropriate amount of capital or liquidity to be maintained by the Issuing Lender or any corporation controlling the Issuing Lender, and such Change in Law shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on the Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s capital, as the case may be, as a consequence of the Issuing Lender’s obligations under such Letter of Credit to a level below that which the Issuing Lender or such corporation, as the case may be, could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into account the Issuing Lender’s or such corporation’s policies, as the case may be, with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by the Issuing Lender to be material, then from time to time following notice by the Issuing Lender to the Company of such Change in Law, within fifteen (15) days after demand by the Issuing Lender, the Company shall pay to the Issuing Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Issuing Lender or such corporation, as the case may be, for such reduction. If the Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.12(b), it shall promptly notify the Company of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate submitted by the Issuing Lender to the Company concurrently with any such demand by the Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive, absent manifest error, as to the amount thereof.

(c) The Company agrees that the provisions of the foregoing clauses (a) and (b) and the provisions of each L/C Application providing for reimbursement or payment to the Issuing Lender in the event of the imposition or implementation of, or increase in, any reserve, special deposit, capital adequacy or similar requirement in respect of the Letter of Credit relating thereto shall apply equally to each Participating Lender in respect of its L/C Participating Interest in such Letter of Credit, as if the references in such paragraphs and provisions referred to, where applicable, such Participating Lender or any corporation controlling such Participating Lender.

5.13 Further Assurances

The Company hereby agrees, from time to time, to do and perform any and all acts and to execute any and all further instruments reasonably requested by the Issuing Lender to effect more fully the purposes of this Agreement and the issuance of Letters of Credit hereunder. The Company further agrees to execute any and all instruments reasonably requested by the Issuing Lender in connection with the obtaining and/or maintaining of any insurance coverage applicable to any Letters of Credit.

5.14 Obligations Absolute

The payment obligations of the Company under this Agreement with respect to the Letters of Credit shall be unconditional and irrevocable and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances:

(a) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Company or any of its Subsidiaries may have at any time against any beneficiary, or any transferee, of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons for whom any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), the Issuing Lender, any Agent or any Lender, or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, the Related Documents, any Credit Documents, the transactions contemplated herein, or any unrelated transaction;

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

(c) payment by the Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate which does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, except where such payment constitutes gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender; or

(d) any other circumstances or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, except for any such circumstances or happening constituting gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Lender.

5.15 Assignments

No Participating Lender’s participation in any Letter of Credit or any of its rights or duties hereunder shall be subdivided, assigned or transferred (other than in connection with a transfer of part or all of such Participating Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment in accordance with Section 12.6) without the prior written consent of the Issuing Lender, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld. Such consent may be given or withheld without the consent or agreement of any other Participating Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Participating Lender may subparticipate its L/C Participating Interest without obtaining the prior written consent of the Issuing Lender.

5.16 Participations

Each Revolving Credit Lender’s obligation to purchase participating interests pursuant to Sections 2.4 and 2.8 shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right which such Revolving Credit Lender may have against the Issuing Lender, the Company, or any other Person for any reason whatsoever; (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Company; (iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Company or any other Lender; or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.

5.17 Inability to Determine Interest Rate for Term Benchmark Loans and Alternate Interest Rate

(a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 5.17, if:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate or the Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis) for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Majority Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such borrowing for such Interest Period or (B) at any time, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such borrowing;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Company and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Company delivers a new election request in accordance with the terms of Section 5.3 or a new request for borrowing in accordance with the terms of Section 5.1, any request by the Company for the conversion of any Revolving Credit Loan to, or continuation of any Revolving Credit Loan as, a Term Benchmark Loan and any request by the Company for a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be an election request or a borrowing request, as applicable, for (1) a RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 5.17(a)(i) or (ii) above or (2) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 5.17(a)(i) or (ii) above; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Loan, then the other Types of Loan shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Company’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 5.17(a) with respect to the Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Company and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower delivers a new interest election request in accordance with the terms of Section 5.3 or a new request for borrowing in accordance with the terms of Section 5.1, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (1) a RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 5.17(a)(i) or (ii) above or (2) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 5.17(a)(i) or (ii) above on such day.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of such Benchmark

setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Credit Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders.

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

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Company and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, as applicable, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 5.17, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 5.17.

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

(f) Upon the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Company may revoke any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing or RFR Borrowing, or conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Company will be deemed to have converted any request for a Term Benchmark Borrowing into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to (i) a RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (ii) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR.

(g) Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Company’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 5.17, (i) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute (A) a RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or (B) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such day and (ii) any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan.

5.18 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments

(a) Each borrowing of any Loans by the Company from the Lenders, each payment by the Company on account of any fee hereunder (other than as set forth in Sections 5.10 and 5.11) and any reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or Revolving Credit Commitments Increases of the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro-rata according to the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders. Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Company on account of principal of and interest on the Loans (other than payments made directly to the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein or as set forth in Sections 5.6, 5.19, 5.20 and 5.21) shall be made pro-rata according to the Commitment Percentages of the Lenders. All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Company on account of principal, interest and fees shall be made without set-off or counterclaim and shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Lenders, at the Administrative Agent’s office located at 10 South Dearborn Street, Floor L2, Chicago, Illinois in Same Day Funds. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute such payments ratably to each Lender in like funds as received to the extent required by this Agreement. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on Term Benchmark Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If any payment on a Term Benchmark Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a Borrowing Date (or with respect to an ABR Loan, on the Borrowing Date) that such Lender will not make the amount which would constitute its Commitment Percentage of the borrowing on such date available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such amount available to the Administrative Agent on such Borrowing Date in accordance with Section 5.1, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Company a corresponding amount. If such amount is made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender on a date after such Borrowing Date, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) the daily average NYFRB Rate during such period as quoted by the Administrative Agent, times (ii) the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse from and including such Borrowing Date to the date on which such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing shall have become immediately available to the Administrative Agent and the denominator of which is 360. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 5.18(b) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. If such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such borrowing is not in fact made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three (3) Business Days of such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans hereunder on demand, from the Company without prejudice to any rights which the Company or the Administrative Agent may have against such Lender hereunder. Nothing contained in this Section 5.18(b) shall relieve any Lender which has failed to make available its ratable portion of any borrowing hereunder from its obligation to do so in accordance with the terms hereof.

(c) The failure of any Lender to make the Loan to be made by it on any Borrowing Date shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Loan on such Borrowing Date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Loan to be made by such other Lender on such Borrowing Date.

(d) All payments and prepayments (other than mandatory prepayments as set forth in Section 5.6 and other than prepayments as set forth in Section 5.20 with respect to increased costs) of Term Benchmark Loans hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Benchmark Loans with the same Interest Period shall not be less than $1,000,000 or a whole multiple of $500,000 in excess thereof.

(e) Any proceeds of Collateral received by any Collateral Agent (i) not constituting either (A) a specific payment of principal, interest, fees or other sum payable under the Credit Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Company), (B) a mandatory prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.6) or (C) amounts to be applied from the Collection Account or the Asset Sale Reserve Account when a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 5.2(b)) and (ii) after an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, whenever the Administrative Agent so elects or the Majority Lenders so direct, shall be applied ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent and the Issuing Lender from the Company (other than in connection with Cash Management Obligations or Swap Obligations), second, to pay any fees, indemnities or expense reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Company (other than in connection with Cash Management Obligations or Swap

Obligations), third, to pay interest due in respect of the Protective Advances, fourth, to pay the principal of the Protective Advances, fifth, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than Protective Advances) ratably, sixth, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than Protective Advances), unreimbursed L/C Disbursements and, to the extent that Reserves have been established with respect to such amounts, amounts owing with respect to Designated Cash Management Obligations and Designated Swap Obligations, ratably, seventh, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred five percent (105%) of the amounts available to be drawn under outstanding Letters of Credit, to be held as cash collateral for Obligations in respect of Letters of Credit, eighth, to payment of any amounts owing with respect to all other Cash Management Obligations or Swap Obligations that constitute Finance Obligations up to and including the amount then due to the relevant parties, and ninth, to the payment of any other Finance Obligation due to the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender by the Company. Any application of funds pursuant to this Section 5.18 to Revolving Credit Loans shall be applied first, to ABR Loans, second, to RFR Loans and third, to Term Benchmark Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, amounts received from any Credit Party shall not be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation (as such term is defined in the Guaranty) of such Credit Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Company, or unless a Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it receives to any Term Benchmark Loan, except (a) on the expiry date of the Interest Period applicable thereto or (b) in the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans and, in any such event, the Company shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 5.21.

(f) If, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of setoff or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Company pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in L/C Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other than to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Company consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against the Company rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of the Company in the amount of such participation.

5.19 Illegality

Notwithstanding any other provisions herein, if any Requirement of Law or any change therein or in the interpretation or application thereof occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans or to convert all or a portion of ABR Loans into Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans shall forthwith be cancelled and such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Term Benchmark Loans, if any, shall, if required by law and if such Lender so requests, be converted automatically to ABR Loans on the date specified by such Lender in such request. To the extent that such affected Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans are converted into ABR Loans, all payments of principal which would otherwise be applied to such Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans shall be applied instead to such Lender’s ABR Loans. The Company hereby agrees promptly to pay any Lender, upon its demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for any costs incurred by such Lender in making any conversion in accordance with this Section 5.19 including, but not limited to, any interest or fees payable by such Lender to lenders of funds obtained by it in order to make or maintain its Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans hereunder (such Lender’s notice of such costs, as certified to the Company through the Administrative Agent, to be conclusive absent manifest error).

5.20 Requirements of Law

(a) In the event that, at any time after the date hereof, any Change in Law or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority:

(i) does or shall subject any Agent or Lender (or its Lending Office) to any fee of any kind whatsoever with respect to this Agreement, any Note or any Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans made by it, or change the basis of imposition of any such fee;

(ii) does or shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge, liquidity or similar requirement against assets held by, or deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances or loans by, or other credit extended by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender which are not otherwise included in the determination of the Term SOFR Rate or Daily Simple SOFR Rate;

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

(iv) does or shall impose on such Lender any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes);

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender of making, continuing, converting, renewing or maintaining advances or extensions of credit or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder, in each case, in respect of its Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans, then, in any such case, the Company, shall promptly pay such Lender, on demand, any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such additional cost or reduced amount receivable as determined by such Lender with respect to such Term Benchmark Loans or RFR Loans together with interest on each such amount from the date demanded until payment in full thereof at a rate per annum equal to the ABR plus the Applicable Margin for Revolving Credit Loans which are ABR Loans.

(b) In the event that at any time after the date hereof any Change in Law with respect to any Lender shall, in the opinion of such Lender, require that any Commitment of such Lender be treated as an asset or otherwise be included for purposes of calculating the appropriate amount of capital or liquidity to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender, and such Change in Law shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital or liquidity, as the case may be, as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation, as the case may be, could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into account such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies, as the case may be, with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time following notice by such Lender to the Company of such Change in Law as provided in clause (c) of this Section 5.20, within fifteen (15) days after demand by such Lender, the Company shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such corporation, as the case may be, for such reduction. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be entitled to seek compensation under this Section 5.20(b) based on the occurrence of a Change in Law unless such Lender is generally seeking compensation from other borrowers in the United States loan market with respect to its similarly affected commitments, loans and/or participations under agreements with such borrowers having provisions similar to this Section 5.20(b).

(c) If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.20, it shall promptly notify the Company through the Administrative Agent, of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. The Company shall not be required to make any payments to any Lender for any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 5.20 unless such Lender has given written notice to the Company, through the Administrative Agent, of its intent to request such payments prior to or within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the date on which such Lender became entitled to claim such amounts. If any Lender has notified the Company through the Administrative Agent of any increased costs pursuant to clause (a) of this Section 5.20, the Company at any time thereafter may, upon at least two (2) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and subject to Section 5.21, prepay or convert into ABR Loans all (but not a part) of the Term Benchmark Loans and/or RFR Loans then outstanding. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of clause (a) of this Section 5.20 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Company, and to the extent permitted by law or by the relevant Governmental Authority, endeavor in good faith to avoid or minimize the increase in costs or reduction in payments resulting from such event (including, without limitation, endeavoring to change its Lending Office); provided, however, that such avoidance or minimization can be made in such a manner that such Lender, in its sole determination, suffers no economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage. If any Lender has notified the Company, through the Administrative Agent, of any increased costs pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 5.20, the Company at any time thereafter may, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lender thereof), and subject to Section 5.21 reduce or terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments in accordance with Section 5.4.

(d) A certificate submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Company shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The covenants contained in this Section 5.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and repayment of the outstanding Loans.

5.21 Break Funding Payments

(a) With respect to Loans that are not RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 5.5 or 5.6), (ii) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked and is revoked in accordance therewith), or (iv) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 5.22, then, in any such event, the Company shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.21(a) shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days (or such later date as may be agreed by the applicable Lender) after receipt thereof.

(b) With respect to RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of principal of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or as a result of any prepayment pursuant to Section 5.5 or 5.6), (ii) the failure to borrow or prepay any RFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 5.5 or 5.6 and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (iii) the assignment of any RFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Company pursuant to Section 5.23(h), then, in any such event, the Company shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 5.21(b) shall be delivered to the Company and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Company shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.

5.22 Replacement of Lenders

In the event any Lender (i) is a Defaulting Lender, (ii) exercises its rights pursuant to Section 5.19 or (iii) requests payments pursuant to Sections 5.20 or 5.23, the Company may require, at the Company’s expense upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, and subject to Section 5.21, such Lender or the Issuing Lender to assign, at par plus accrued interest and fees, without recourse (in accordance with Section 12.6) all of its interests, rights and obligations hereunder (including all of its Revolving Credit Commitments and the Loans and other amounts at the time owing to it hereunder and its interest in the Letters of Credit) to a bank, financial institution or other entity specified by the Company; provided that (i) such assignment shall not conflict with or violate any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority, (ii) the Company shall have received the written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of an assignment of a Revolving Credit Commitment, of the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, to such assignment, (iii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans (including Swingline Loans) and participations in L/C Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the case of all other amounts) and (iv) in the case of a required assignment by the Issuing Lender, the Letters of Credit shall be cancelled and returned to the Issuing Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

5.23 Taxes

(a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 5.23, the term “applicable Law” includes FATCA, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender, and the term “Withholding Agent” means the Company and the Administrative Agent.

(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable Law. If any applicable Law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Company shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Lender, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Company. The Company shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(d) Indemnification by the Company. The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, or any Lender, within twenty (20) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes arising from any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Company under any Credit Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or are required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Person and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Company by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within twenty (20) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Company has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 12.6(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Credit Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Credit Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (e).

(f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes pursuant to this Section 5.23 by the Company to a Governmental Authority, the Company shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(g) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Credit Document shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Company or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Company or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 5.23(g)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,

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

(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Company or the Administrative Agent, but only if the Foreign Lender is legally entitled to do so), whichever of the following is applicable:

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

(II) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(III) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Company within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Company described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

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

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

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Company and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Company or the 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 the Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Company and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this sub-clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Company and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(h) Lending Office. Any Lender claiming additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 5.23 agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to change the jurisdiction of its Lending Office if, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, the making of such change (i) would eliminate or reduce any such additional amounts payable to such Lender in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed out-of-pocket cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender.

(i) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 5.23 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to Section 5.23(b)), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made or additional amounts paid under this Section with

respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this clause (i) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this clause (i), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this clause (i) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(j) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.23 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Credit Document.

5.24 Defaulting Lenders

Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 5.9;

(b) Such Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to vote on any issue on which voting is required (other than the matters provided in Section 12.1(a) requiring the consent of such affected Lender), and the Revolving Credit Commitments and the Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages in outstanding Revolving Credit Loans of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Majority Lenders or the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 12.1); provided, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 12.1, this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or of each Lender affected thereby;

(c) if any amount outstanding in respect of Letters of Credit or Swingline Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of the Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage of such Defaulting Lender in Letters of Credit and Swingline Exposure shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages but only to the extent that (x) the sum of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages in Revolving Credit Loans and in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans plus such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit and Swingline Exposure does not exceed the total of all non-Defaulting Lenders’ Commitments, (y) the conditions set forth in Section 7.2 are satisfied at such time (and, unless the Company shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Company shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time) and (z) to the extent such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Loans, its Protective Advances, its Swingline Loans and its Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages in Letters of Credit to exceed its Revolving Credit Commitment;

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Company shall within one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and second, Cash Collateralize, for the benefit of the Issuing Lender, the Company’s obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 10.1 for so long as such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit is outstanding;

(iii) if the Company Cash Collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving L/C Obligations pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Company shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 5.11 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit during the period such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit is Cash Collateralized;

(iv) if the Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 5.9 and Section 5.11 shall be adjusted in accordance with such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Credit Commitment Percentages; and

(v) if all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit is neither reallocated nor Cash Collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of the Issuing Lender or any other Lender hereunder, all Commitment Fees that otherwise would have been payable to such Defaulting Lender (solely with respect to the portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment that was utilized by such Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit) and Letter of Credit fees payable under Section 5.11 with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit shall be payable to the Issuing Lender until and to the extent that such Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in Letters of Credit is reallocated and/or Cash Collateralized; and

(d) so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment Percentage in then outstanding Letters of Credit will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Company in accordance with Section 5.24(c), and participating interests in any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 5.24(c)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

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

In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Company, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and the L/C Participating Interest of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitments and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than the Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its Revolving Credit Commitments.

5.25 Accounts; Cash Dominion

(a) At all times subject to the following sentence, all Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts (other than any Excluded Account for so long as such account is an Excluded Account) of the Credit Parties shall be Controlled Accounts. The Credit Parties will, in connection with any Deposit Account, Securities Account or Commodity Account (other than any Excluded Account for so long as such account is an Excluded Account), enter into and deliver to the Collateral Agent a Control Agreement in form and substance acceptable to the Collateral Agent: (i) with respect to Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts in existence on the Closing Date, within sixty (60) days of the Closing Date, (ii) with respect to Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts established after the Closing Date pursuant to Section 8.14, on the date such account is established and (iii) with respect to all other Deposit Accounts, Securities Accounts and Commodities Accounts established after the Closing Date, promptly but in any event within thirty (30) days of the date such account is established (in each case, or such later date as the Collateral Agent may agree in its sole discretion). Each Credit Party shall be subject to cash dominion at all times a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing. At any time that a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing, cash on hand and collections which are received into any Controlled Account (other than the Material Debt Reserve Account), and, to the extent necessary, any securities held in any Securities Account shall be liquidated and the cash proceeds thereof, shall be swept on a daily basis into the Collection Account and used to prepay Loans outstanding under this Agreement in accordance with Section 5.2(b) ; provided that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any time that a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing, any cash proceeds in respect of any Notes Priority Collateral Prepayment Event shall be deposited in the Asset Sale Reserve Account to the extent required by Section 5.6(c) and shall not be swept to the Collection Account. During any time that a Cash Dominion Event has occurred and is continuing (A) all proceeds of any Loan shall be deposited into a Deposit Account that is a Controlled Account and maintained with the Administrative Agent and (B) the Company shall accurately report to the Administrative Agent the daily balance of the Controlled Accounts to ensure the proper transfer of funds as set forth above.

(b) In the event during the Asset Sale Reserve Period, the Company desires to use cash on deposit in the Asset Sale Reserve Account to (i) repay, redeem, retire, defease, replace, refinance or repurchase the Secured 2026 Notes or any Indebtedness permitted hereunder to be secured by a Pari Passu Second Lien or (ii) invest in any property or assets to be used by the Parent, the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary in a Permitted Business that would constitute Notes Priority Collateral (a transaction under clause (i) or clause (ii) above, a “Permitted Transaction”), the Company shall, promptly following any determination by the Company of an election to apply cash on deposit in the Asset Sale Reserve Account in accordance with this Section 5.25(b) (in event no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the date of any such application of cash on deposit in the Asset Sale Reserve Account), deliver to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer of the Company specifying in reasonable detail the Permitted Transaction, the proposed date thereof and the amount of cash on deposit in the Asset Sale Reserve Account to be applied towards the Permitted Transaction (the “Requested Release”) and certifying that Permitted Transaction is permitted in accordance with the terms of (x) this Agreement and (y) the Secured 2026 Notes Indenture and any indenture or other document governing the terms of any Indebtedness permitted hereunder to be secured by a Pari Passu Second Lien. In the event the Company delivers to the Administrative Agent a certificate in accordance with this Section 5.25(b), on the date of the Permitted Transaction, an amount of cash equal to Requested Release shall be transferred to a Deposit Account specified by the Company and shall be applied by the Company in accordance with Permitted Transaction described in the certificate delivered to the Administrative Agent in accordance with this Section 5.25(b). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, if the Asset Sale Reserve Period ends as a result of the Cash Dominion Event that commenced such Asset Sale Reserve Period no longer being continuing, the Administrative Agent shall promptly apply funds credited to the Asset Sale Reserve Account at the Borrower’s direction for any purpose not prohibited hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent any funds credited to the Asset Sale Reserve Account constitute Net Proceeds of a Notes Priority Collateral Prepayment Event, the application of such proceeds shall be subject to Section 5.6(c).

6. REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

In order to induce the Lenders to enter into this Agreement and to make the Loans and to induce the Issuing Lenders to issue, and the Participating Lenders to participate in, the Letters of Credit, the Parent and the Company each hereby represent and warrant to each Lender and each Agent, on and as of the Closing Date and on the date of each Loan made or Letter of Credit issued thereafter, that:

6.2 Corporate Power; Authorization

Each Credit Party has the power and authority and the legal right to make, deliver and perform the Credit Documents to which it is a party; the Company has the power and authority and legal right to borrow hereunder and to have Letters of Credit issued for its account hereunder. Each Credit Party has taken all necessary corporate, stockholder, partnership or limited liability company action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Credit Documents to which it is a party and, in the case of the Company, to authorize the borrowings hereunder and the issuance of Letters of Credit for its account hereunder. No consent or authorization of, or filing with, any Person (including, without limitation, any Governmental Authority) is required in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by any Credit Party, or the validity or enforceability against any Credit Party, of any Credit Document to the extent that it is a party thereto, other than any such consent or authorization which has been obtained or filing which has been made to the extent required hereunder, or the failure of which to obtain could have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.3 Enforceable Obligations

Each of the Credit Documents has been duly executed and delivered on behalf of each Credit Party party thereto and each of such Credit Documents constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation of such Credit Party, enforceable against such Credit Party in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, or similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law).

6.4 No Conflict with Law or Contractual Obligations

The performance of each Credit Document, and the use of the proceeds of the Loans and of drawings under the Letters of Credit will not violate any Requirement of Law or any material Contractual Obligation (including under such Credit Party’s organizational documents) applicable to or binding upon any Credit Party, any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or any of its properties or assets, and will not result in the creation or imposition of (or the obligation to create or impose) any Lien (other than any Liens created pursuant to the Credit Documents) on any of its or their respective properties or assets pursuant to any Requirement of Law applicable to it or them, as the case may be, or any of its or their Contractual Obligations, except, in the case of any Contractual Obligations, for any such violations which could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.5 No Material Litigation

No litigation or investigation or proceeding of or by any Governmental Authority or any other Person is pending or has been overtly threatened against any Credit Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (i) with respect to the validity, binding effect or enforceability of any Credit Document, or with respect to the Loans made hereunder, the use of proceeds thereof or of any drawings under a Letter of Credit, and the other transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or (ii) which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.6 Borrowing Base Certificate

At the time of delivery of each Borrowing Base Certificate, assuming that any eligibility criteria that requires the approval or satisfaction of the Administrative Agent has been approved by or is satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, each Account reflected therein as eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base is an Eligible Account, the Product Inventory reflected therein as eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base constitutes Eligible Inventory, each Commodity Account reflected therein as eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base constitutes an Eligible Futures Account and each Dollar or Cash Equivalent reflected therein as eligible for inclusion in the Borrowing Base constitutes Eligible Cash Collateral.

6.7 Investment Company Act

No Credit Party is required to register as an “investment company” (as such term is defined or used in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended).

6.8 Federal Reserve Regulations

No part of the proceeds of any of the Loans or any drawing under a Letter of Credit will be used to “purchase” or “carry” “margin stock” within the meaning of Regulation U of the Board or for any other purpose which violates, or which would be inconsistent with, the provisions of Regulation T, U or X of the Board. Neither the Company nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is engaged or will engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of extending credit for the purpose of “purchasing” or “carrying” any “margin stock” within the respective meanings of each of the quoted terms under said Regulation U.

6.9 No Default

No Credit Party nor any of their Restricted Subsidiaries is in default in the payment or performance of any of its or their Contractual Obligations in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. Neither the Company nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries is in default under any order, award or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator binding upon or affecting it or them or by which any of its or their properties or assets may be bound or affected in any respect which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and no such order, award or decree could reasonably be expected to materially adversely affect the ability of the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole to carry on their businesses as presently conducted or the ability of any Credit Party to perform its obligations under any Credit Document to which it is a party.

6.10 Taxes

Each Credit Party and their Restricted Subsidiaries has filed or caused to be filed or has timely requested an extension to file or has received an approved extension to file all Federal and all other material tax returns which are required to have been filed, and has paid all material Taxes shown to be due and payable on said returns or extension requests or on any assessments made against it or any of its property and all other material Taxes imposed on it or any of its property by any Governmental Authority (other than those the amount or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided in the books of the Company or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be); and no claims are being asserted in writing with respect to any such material Taxes (other than those the amount or validity of which is currently being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and with

respect to which reserves in conformity with GAAP have been provided in the books of the Credit Party or its Restricted Subsidiaries, as the case may be).

6.11 Subsidiaries

The Subsidiaries of the Company listed on Schedule 6.11 constitute all of the Subsidiaries of the Parent and the Company as of the Closing Date.

6.12 Ownership of Property; Liens

As of the Closing Date, Schedule 6.12 describes the Credit Parties’ owned and leased Real Property that has improvements thereon. Except as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, each of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries has good and marketable title to, or valid Leasehold interests in or rights to use, all its Real Property and personal property material to its business taken as a whole, and none of such property is subject to any Lien except for Liens permitted by Section 9.3.

6.13 ERISA; Canadian Pension Plans

(a) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur that, when taken together with all other such ERISA Events for which liability is reasonably expected to occur, could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. The present value of all accumulated benefit obligations of all underfunded Plans (based on the assumptions used for purposes of Accounting Standards Codification 715-30) did not, as of the date of the most recent financial statements reflecting such amounts, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such underfunded Plans, in each case by an amount that, if required to be paid by the Company and its Subsidiaries, would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each Canadian Credit Party is in compliance with the requirements of the Employment Pension Plans Act (Alberta), the Pension Benefits Act (Ontario) and other federal or provincial laws with respect to each (i) Canadian Pension Plan, except where the failure to comply would not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and (ii) Canadian Defined Benefit Plan. No fact or situation that may reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect exists in connection with any Canadian Pension Plan or Canadian Defined Benefit Plan. No Canadian Pension Event has occurred. No Canadian Credit Party has a Canadian Defined Benefit Plan. No lien has arisen, choate or inchoate, in respect of any Canadian Credit Party or their property in connection with (a) any Canadian Pension Plan, or (b) any “registered pension plan” as defined in subsection 248(1) of the Income Tax Act (Canada) that is sponsored and maintained by a third party to which a Credit Party contributes in respect of some or all of its employees (in each case, save for contribution amounts not yet due).

6.14 Environmental Matters

(a) The Properties do not contain any Materials of Environmental Concern in concentrations which constitute a violation of, or could reasonably be expected to give rise to liability under, Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) The Properties and all operations at the Properties are in compliance with all, and have not violated any, applicable Environmental Laws, except for failure to be in compliance or for such violation that could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and there is no contamination at, under or about the Properties that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(c) Neither the Company nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has received any notice of violation, alleged violation, non-compliance, liability or potential liability regarding environmental matters or compliance with Environmental Laws that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor does the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary have knowledge that any such action is being contemplated, considered or threatened.

(d) There are no judicial proceedings or governmental or administrative actions pending or threatened under any Environmental Law to which the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary is or will be named as a party that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, nor are there any consent decrees or other decrees, consent orders, administrative orders or other orders under any Environmental Law that could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

6.15 Accuracy and Completeness of Financial Statements

(a) (i) The audited balance sheet of the Parent and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2020 and the related audited consolidated statements of earnings (loss), parent company equity and cash flows for fiscal year ended

March 31, 2020, reported on by Grant Thornton LLP, and (ii) the unaudited balance sheet of the Parent and its Subsidiaries for the fiscal quarters ended June 30, 2020 and September 30, 2020, in each case, present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Parent and its Subsidiaries, and their results of operations and cash flows, for such periods, in conformity with GAAP, subject to year-end audit adjustments and absence of footnotes in the case of clause (ii).

(b) All Projections delivered in accordance with Section 7.1(b), when taken as a whole, were prepared in good faith based upon assumptions believed by the Company to be reasonable at the time prepared (it being recognized that such Projections are not to be viewed as facts and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ from the projected results, and such differences may be material).

6.16 Absence of Undisclosed Liabilities

Except for the Loans, if any, incurred on the Closing Date, neither the Company nor any of its Restricted Subsidiaries has or is subject to any liabilities (absolute, accrued, contingent or otherwise) that are not disclosed in the financial statements referred to in Section 6.15(a), except liabilities or obligations which could not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to constitute a Material Adverse Effect.

6.17 No Material Adverse Effect

Since March 31, 2020, there has not been any event, occurrence, fact, condition, change, development or effect which individually or in the aggregate has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect; provided that for purposes of the making of the representation set forth in this Section 6.17 through and including March 21, 2022, the adverse effects described in the press release of the Parent titled “NGL Energy Partners LP Provides Financial Update” and dated January 19, 2021 shall be disregarded in determining whether there has been a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition, assets, or results of operations of the Parent and its Restricted Subsidiaries taken as a whole.

The Administrative Agent or any Lender shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in any Credit Party, which right or equity is hereby waived and released by each Credit Party on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries. Each Credit Party further agrees on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries, at the Administrative Agent’s request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Administrative Agent at places which the Administrative Agent shall reasonably select, whether at the premises of the Company, another Credit Party or elsewhere. The Administrative Agent shall apply the net proceeds of any action taken by it pursuant to this Article 10, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every kind incurred in connection therewith or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any of the Collateral or in any other way relating to the Collateral or the rights of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part of the obligations of the Credit Parties under the Credit Documents, in such order as the Administrative Agent may elect, and only after such application and after the payment by the Administrative Agent of any other amount required by any provision of law, including Section 9-615(a)(3) of the New York Uniform Commercial

Code, need the Administrative Agent account for the surplus, if any, to any Credit Party. To the extent permitted by applicable law, each Credit Party on behalf of itself and its Subsidiaries waives all Liabilities it may acquire against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of the exercise by them of any rights hereunder. If any notice of a proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at least ten (10) days before such sale or other disposition.

11. The Administrative Agent

11.1 Authorization and Action

(a) Each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby irrevocably appoints the entity named as Administrative Agent in the heading of this Agreement and its successors and assigns to serve as the administrative agent and collateral agent under the Credit Documents and each Lender and each Issuing Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as are delegated to the Administrative Agent under such agreements and to exercise such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. In addition, to the extent required under the laws of any jurisdiction other than within the United States, each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent any required powers of attorney to execute and enforce any Collateral Document governed by the laws of such jurisdiction on such Lender’s or such Issuing Lender’s behalf. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and each Issuing Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Credit Documents to which the Administrative Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Credit Documents.

For the purposes of holding any hypothec granted to the Attorney (as defined below) pursuant to the laws of the Province of Québec to secure the prompt payment and performance of any and all Obligations by any Credit Party, each of the Secured Parties hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Administrative Agent and, to the extent necessary, ratifies the appointment and authorization of the Administrative Agent, to, as part of its duties as Administrative Agent, act as the hypothecary representative of the creditors as contemplated under Article 2692 of the Civil Code of Québec (in such capacity, the “Attorney”), and to enter into, to take and to hold on their behalf, and for their benefit, any hypothec, and to exercise such powers and duties that are conferred upon the Attorney under any related deed of hypothec. The Attorney shall: (a) have the sole and exclusive right and authority to exercise, except as may be otherwise specifically restricted by the terms hereof, all rights and remedies given to the Attorney pursuant to any such deed of hypothec and applicable law, and (b) benefit from and be subject to all provisions hereof with respect to the Administrative Agent mutatis mutandis, including, without limitation, all such provisions with respect to the liability or responsibility to and indemnification by the Secured Parties and Credit Parties. Any person who becomes a Secured Party shall, by its execution of an Assignment and Assumption, be deemed to have consented to and confirmed the Attorney as the person acting as hypothecary representative holding the aforesaid hypothecs as aforesaid and to have ratified, as of the date it becomes a Secured Party, all actions taken by the Attorney in such capacity. The substitution of the Administrative Agent pursuant to the provisions of this Section 11 shall also result in the substitution of the Attorney.

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

(c) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

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

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

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

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

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

(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Disbursements 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 the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 5.7, 5.9, 5.10, 5.11, 5.23 and 12.5) 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, interim receiver, monitor, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Lender and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders or the other Secured Parties, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Credit Documents (including under Section 12.5). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender or Issuing Lender in any such proceeding.

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

11.2 Administrative Agent’s Reliance, Limitation of Liability, Etc.

(a) Neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such party, the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents (x) with the consent of or at the request of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Credit Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, representations or warranties made by any Credit Party or any officer thereof contained in this Agreement or any other Credit Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Credit Document or for the value, validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including, for the avoidance of doubt, in connection with the Administrative Agent’s reliance on any Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page) or for any failure of any Credit Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any (i) notice of any of the events or circumstances set forth or described in Section 8.9 unless and until written notice thereof stating that it is a “notice under Section 8.9” in respect of this Agreement and identifying the specific clause under said Section is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company, or (ii) notice of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is a “notice of Default” or a “notice of an Event of Default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Company, a Lender or an Issuing Lender. Further, the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Credit Document or the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article 7 or elsewhere in any Credit Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) the creation, perfection or priority of Liens on the Collateral.

(c) Without limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory note has been assigned in accordance with Section 12.6, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 12.6(b), (iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Company), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Lender and shall not be responsible to any Lender or Issuing Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Credit Party in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Lender sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Credit Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact meets the requirements set forth in the Credit Documents for being the maker thereof).

11.3 Posting of Communications

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

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

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

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

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

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

11.4 The Administrative Agent Individually

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

11.5 Successor Administrative Agent

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

(b) Notwithstanding clause (a) of this Section, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Company, whereupon, on the date of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and continue to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Collateral Documents and Credit Documents, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Majority Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder or under any other Credit Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and each Issuing Lender. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article and Section 12.5, as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Credit Document, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and in respect of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (i) above.

11.6 Acknowledgements of Lenders and Issuing Lenders

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

Company and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

(b) Each Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Closing Date, or delivering its signature page to an Assignment and Assumption or any other Credit Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Credit Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Closing Date.

11.7 Collateral Matters

(a) Except with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 12.7 or with respect to a Secured Party’s right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Credit Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof.

(b) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Cash Management Obligations or Swap Obligations, will create (or be deemed to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral or of the obligations of any Credit Party under any Credit Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Cash Management Obligations or Swap Obligations, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Credit Documents and agreed to be bound by the Credit Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.

(c) The Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent, as applicable, at its option and in its discretion, and the Administrative and Collateral Agreement, as applicable, agree to, upon the request of the Company, (i) subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Credit Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Sections 9.3(a), 9.3(b), 9.3(c) or 9.3(d), (ii) to release any Guarantor from its obligations under the Guaranty and the other Credit Documents if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of a transaction permitted under the Credit Documents, (iii) to release the Lien of any Collateral that is, or is to be, sold, released or otherwise disposed of as permitted pursuant to the terms of the Credit Documents and (iv) to enter into or amend an intercreditor agreement (or direct the Collateral Agent to enter into or amend an intercreditor agreement), including without limitation the Intercreditor Agreement, with the collateral agent or other representatives of the holders of Indebtedness that is permitted to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral; provided, that in the case of each of clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), the Company shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent, no later than concurrently with execution and delivery of such releases, subordination and other documents, a written request of a Responsible Officer for release, together with a certification by the Company stating that such transaction is in compliance with the Credit Documents. Neither the Administrative Agent nor the Collateral Agent shall be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority or perfection of the Collateral Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Credit Party in connection therewith, nor shall the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain any portion of the Collateral.

11.8 Credit Bidding

The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Majority Lenders, to credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions to which a Credit Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by (or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Majority Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid, (i) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to

100

assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, (ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by the vote of the Majority Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the limitations on actions by the Majority Lenders contained in Section 12.1 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause (ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

11.9 Certain ERISA Matters

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

With the written consent of the Majority Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the respective Credit Parties may, from time to time, enter into written amendments, supplements or modifications to any Credit Document for the purpose of adding any provisions to such Credit Document to which they are parties or changing in any manner the rights of the Lenders or of any such Credit Party or any other Person thereunder or waiving, on such terms and conditions as the Administrative Agent may specify in such instrument, any of the requirements of any such Credit Document or any Default or Event of Default and its consequences; provided, however, that:

(a) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall (A) extend the Revolving Credit Termination Date or the scheduled maturity of any Loan or extend the expiry date of any Letter of Credit beyond the Revolving Credit Termination Date, or reduce the rate or extend the time of payment of interest on any Loan or Letter of Credit, or change the method of calculating interest on any Loan or Letter of Credit, or reduce the amount or extend the time of payment of any fee payable to the Lenders hereunder (provided that any amendment or modification of the financial covenants in this Agreement (or any defined term used therein) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for such purpose and a waiver of payment of any default interest under Section 5.7(d) shall not constitute a reduction of rate), or reduce or forgive the principal amount thereof, or increase the amount of, or postpone the scheduled date of expiry of, any Commitment of any Lender (it being understood that a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 7.02 or the waiver of any mandatory prepayment shall not constitute an increase or an extension of any Commitment of any Lender), without the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, or (B) amend, modify or waive any provision of this Section 12.1 or the definition of Majority Lenders, the definition of Required Lenders or alter the manner in which payments of principal, interest, or other amounts hereunder shall be applied as among the Lenders in the respective Facility (in which case, the written consent of each Lender in the respective Facility shall be required), or change the percentage of the Lenders required to waive a condition precedent under Sections 7.1 or 7.2, or amend, modify, eliminate or waive a condition precedent under or waive or amend any other provision in any of the Credit Documents which by their terms expressly require all Lenders’ consent or consent to the assignment or transfer by any Credit Party of any of its rights and obligations under any Credit Document, or release all or substantially all of the Collateral or subordinate Collateral Agent’s Lien on (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, a subordination pursuant to Sections 9.3(a), (b), (c) and (d) of this Agreement) on any material portion of the Collateral in any transaction or series of transactions, or release all or substantially all of the value of the guarantees granted (or required to be granted) pursuant to this Agreement, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender (unless otherwise specified in sub-clause (B) of this clause (i));

(b) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall amend, modify or waive any provision of Article 11 without the written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent;

(c) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 5.18(e) in a manner that would alter the manner in which payments are shared, without the written consent of each Lender;

(d) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall increase the advance rates set forth in the definition of “Borrowing Base” or add new categories of eligible assets or making other changes to the definition of “Borrowing Base” or any component definition thereof if as a result thereof the amounts available to be borrowed by the Company would be increased, without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders;

(e) the Administrative Agent and the Company acting together may, without the consent of any other Person, amend, modify or supplement this Agreement and any other Credit Document to cure any typographical error, mistake or defect, to comply with local law or the advice of local counsel or to cause one or more Credit Documents to be consistent with other Credit Documents;

(f) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Issuing Lender or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Issuing

102

Lender or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be (it being understood that any amendment to Section 2.24 shall require the consent of the Issuing Lender and the Swingline Lender); and

(g) no such waiver and no such amendment, supplement or modification shall amend, modify or waive any provision of Section 8.21 without the written consent of each Lender.

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification described in this Section 12.1 shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon each Credit Party, the Lenders, each Agent and all future holders of the Loans. No waiver, amendment, supplement or modification of any Letter of Credit shall extend the expiry date thereof without the written consent of the Participating Lenders. In the case of any waiver, the Company, the Lenders and each Agent shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the outstanding Loans, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

If, in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender affected thereby”, the consent of the Majority Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but has not been obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then the Company may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lender shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to an assignment under Section 12.6 and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of Section12.6, and (ii) the Company shall pay to such Non-Consenting Lender in Same Day Funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest, fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by the Company hereunder to and including the date of termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 5.20 or Section 5.23, and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 5.21 had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender.

104

hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. The provisions of Sections 5.21, 5.23 and 12.5 and Article 11 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

12.5 Expenses, Limitation of Liability, Indemnity, Etc.

(a) The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable and documented out of pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such Persons taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to such Persons, taken as a whole), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), (ii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by any Issuing Lenders in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder (but limited, in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to such Issuing Lender and, if reasonably necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to such Issuing Lender), (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any Lender, in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or Letters of Credit and (iv) for field examinations to the extent required by Section 8.12.

(b) To the extent permitted by applicable law (i) the Company and any Credit Party shall not assert, and the Company and each Credit Party hereby waives, any claim against the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Issuing Lender and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) for any Liabilities arising from the use by others of information or other materials (including, without limitation, any personal data) obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including the Internet), and (ii) no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against any other party hereto, 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 other Credit Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this Section 12.5(b) shall relieve the Company and each Credit Party of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnified Person, as provided in Section 12.5(c), against any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnified Person by a third party.

(c) The Company shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, Issuing Lender and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnified Person”) against, and hold each Indemnified Person harmless from, any and all Liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for any Indemnified Person, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnified Person arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Credit Document, or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Lender to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence or release of hazardous materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or any environmental liability related in any way to the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective Proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not such Proceeding is brought by the Company or any other Credit Party or its or their respective equity holders, Affiliates, creditors or any other third Person and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnified Person is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnified Person, be available to the extent that such Liabilities or related expenses are (i) determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted primarily from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnified Person or (ii) arise out of any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by such Indemnified Person (or its Affiliates) against another Indemnified Person (or its Affiliates) (other than any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding brought by or against the Administrative Agent, acting in its capacity as the Administrative Agent) that does not involve any act or

105

omission of the Credit Parties. This Section 12.5(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(d) Each Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by the Company under clauses (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 12.5 to the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, each Issuing Lender and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Agent-Related Person”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Company and without limiting the obligation of the Company to do so), ratably according to their respective Commitments or Loans in effect on the date on which such payment is sought under this Section (or, if such payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably according to their respective Commitments or Loans immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all Liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent-Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that the unreimbursed expense or Liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person in its capacity as such; provided further that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such Liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent-Related Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(e) All amounts due under this Section 12.5 shall be payable promptly after written demand therefor.

12.6 Successors and Assigns; Participations

(a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Company may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Company without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Lender that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided in clause (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

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

(A) the Company; provided that, the Company shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment of all or a portion of the Loans and Commitments unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided that no consent of the Company shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;

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

(D) the Swingline Lender.

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the

106

date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Company and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent; provided that no such consent of the Company shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing;

(B) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(C) the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500; and

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

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 5.21, 5.23 and 12.5). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and L/C Disbursements owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Company, any Issuing Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in clause (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by clause (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) Any Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Lenders, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution, in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged; (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (C) the Company, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and

107

obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 12.1(b) that affects such Participant. The Company agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 5.21 and Section 5.23 (subject to the requirements and limitations therein), to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 5.22 as if it were an assignee under clause (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 5.21 and Section 5.23, with respect to any participation, than its participating Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 12.7 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 5.18 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Company, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(d) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank, and this Section shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

12.7 Right of Setoff

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

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

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

12.18 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs

(a) To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Contracts or any other agreement or instrument that is a

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

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

112

understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

12.19 Canadian Anti-Money Laundering Legislation

(a) Each Credit Party acknowledges that, pursuant to the Proceeds of Crime Act and other applicable Canadian anti-money laundering, anti-terrorist financing, government sanction and “know your client” laws (collectively, including any guidelines or orders thereunder, “AML Legislation”), the Lenders may be required to obtain, verify and record information regarding the Credit Parties and their respective directors, authorized signing officers, direct or indirect shareholders or other Persons in control of the Credit Parties, and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each Credit Party shall promptly provide all such information, including supporting documentation and other evidence, as may be reasonably requested by any Lender or any prospective assignee or participant of a Lender, any Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent, in order to comply with any applicable AML Legislation, whether now or hereafter in existence.

(b) If the Administrative Agent has ascertained the identity of any Credit Party or any authorized signatories of the Credit Parties for the purposes of applicable AML Legislation, then the Administrative Agent:

(i) shall be deemed to have done so as an agent for each Lender, and this Agreement shall constitute a “written agreement” in such regard between each Lender and the Administrative Agent within the meaning of the applicable AML Legislation; and

(ii) shall provide to each Lender copies of all information obtained in such regard without any representation or warranty as to its accuracy or completeness.

Notwithstanding the preceding sentence and except as may otherwise be agreed in writing, each of the Lenders agrees that neither the Administrative Agent nor any other agent has any obligation to ascertain the identity of the Credit Parties or any authorized signatories of the Credit Parties on behalf of any Lender, or to confirm the completeness or accuracy of any information it obtains from any Credit Party or any such authorized signatory in doing so.

12.20 Judgment Currency

If for the purpose of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert an amount due hereunder in the currency in which it is due (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Second Currency”), the rate of exchange applied shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase in the New York foreign exchange market, the Original Currency with the Second Currency on the date two (2) Business Days preceding that on which judgment is given. Each Credit Party agrees that its obligation in respect of any Original Currency due from it hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment or payment in such other currency, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day following the date the Administrative Agent receives payment of any sum so adjudged to be due hereunder in the Second Currency, the Administrative Agent may, in accordance with normal banking procedures, purchase, in the New York foreign exchange market, the Original Currency with the amount of the Second Currency so paid; and if the amount of the Original Currency so purchased or could have been so purchased is less than the amount originally due in the Original Currency, each Credit Party agrees as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such payment or judgment to indemnify the Administrative Agent against such loss.

12.21 Intercreditor Agreement

Notwithstanding any provisions in the Agreement or any other Credit Document to the contrary, the terms, conditions and provisions of this Agreement and the other Credit Documents are subject to the term of the Intercreditor Agreement.
