For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (f), and any Default, Event of Default or specified Default or Event of Default, as applicable, occurs following the date (x) a definitive agreement for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction was entered into or (y) in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws, rules or regulations in any other applicable jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer in respect of a target of a Limited Condition Transaction is made (or the equivalent notice under such equivalent laws, rules or regulations in such other applicable jurisdiction) and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default, Event of Default or specified Default or Event of Default, as applicable, shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder. (t) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of: (A) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of the First Lien Leverage Ratio, Leverage Ratio or the Secured Leverage Ratio (including compliance with the covenant set forth in Section 5.1 on a Pro Forma Basis); (B) testing baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated Total Assets); or (C) any other determination as to whether any such Limited Condition Transaction and any related transactions (including any financing thereof) complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement; (u) in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date (x) a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into or (y) in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws,


 
75 rules or regulations in any other applicable jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer in respect of a target of a Limited Condition Transaction is made (or the equivalent notice under such equivalent laws, rules or regulations in such other applicable jurisdiction), as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and Liens and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent Financial Covenant Period ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which Financial Statements have been delivered pursuant to Section 6.1, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, basket or amount, such ratio, basket or amount shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided that (a) if financial statements for one or more subsequent Fiscal Quarters or Fiscal Years shall have been delivered pursuant to Sections 6.1(a) or 6.1(b), the Borrower may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-determine all such ratios, baskets or amounts on the basis of such financial statements, in which case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable LCT Test Date for purposes of such ratios, baskets or amounts and (b) except as contemplated in the foregoing clause (a), compliance with such ratios, baskets or amounts (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any actions or transactions related thereto (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and Liens and the use of proceeds thereof). For purposes of determining compliance with any ratio, basket or amount on the applicable LCT Test Date, Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the EBITDA will be calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as determined by the Borrower in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in exchange rates or EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of the Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios, baskets or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket or amount availability with respect to the Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Investments, Dispositions, mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which (1) such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, (2) the definitive agreement for, or firm offer in respect of, such Limited Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction or (3) such notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Capital Stock of Preferred Stock is revoked or


 
76 expires without consummation, any such ratio, basket or amount shall be calculated on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated. (v) For purposes of calculating the principal amount of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to (x) Section 8.1(c) or (y) Section 8.1(q) in reliance of the ratio test in clause (B)(x) of the proviso of such clause (collectively, the “Ratio-Based Debt Baskets”), any pro forma calculation of First Lien Leverage Ratio, Secured Leverage Ratio or Leverage Ratio, as applicable, shall be determined without giving effect to any other incurrence of Indebtedness on the date of determination pursuant to any other clause or sub-clause of Section 8.1 other than Ratio-Based Debt Baskets. Section 1.4 Certain Terms. (n) The terms “herein,” “hereof” and “hereunder” and similar terms refer to this Agreement as a whole, and not to any particular Article, Section, subsection or clause in, this Agreement. With respect to any Default or Event of Default, the words “exists,” “is continuing” or similar expressions with respect thereto shall mean that such Default or Event of Default has occurred and has not yet been cured or waived. If any Default or Event of Default has occurred hereunder (any such Default or Event of Default, an “Initial Default”) and is subsequently cured (a “Cured Default”), any other Default, Event of Default or failure of a condition precedent that resulted or may have resulted from (i) the making or deemed making of any representation or warranty by any Loan Party or (ii) any act or omission by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of any Loan Party, in each case which subsequent Default, Event of Default or failure would not have arisen had the Cured Default not been continuing at the time of such representation, warranty, action or omission, shall be deemed to automatically be cured or satisfied, as applicable, upon, and simultaneously with, the cure of the Cured Default, so long as at the time of such representation, warranty, action or omission, no Responsible Officer of the Borrower had knowledge of any such Initial Default. To the extent not already so notified, the Borrower Representative will provide prompt written notice of any such automatic cure to the Administrative Agent after a Responsible Officer of the Borrower knows of the occurrence of any such automatic cure. Any time period in this Agreement to cure any actual or alleged Default or Event of Default may be extended or stayed by a court of competent jurisdiction to the extent such actual or alleged Default or Event of Default is the subject of litigation. (o) Unless otherwise expressly indicated herein, (i) references in this Agreement to the preamble or recitals or to an Exhibit, Schedule, Article, Section, clause or sub-clause refer to the appropriate Exhibit or Schedule to, or Article, Section, clause or sub-clause in this Agreement and (ii) the words “above” and “below”, when following a reference to a clause or a sub-clause of any Loan Document, refer to a clause or sub- clause within, respectively, the same Section or clause.


 
77 (p) Each agreement defined in this Article I shall include all appendices, exhibits and schedules thereto. Unless the prior written consent of the Requisite Lenders (or such greater number of Lenders as may be required hereunder) is required hereunder for an amendment, restatement, supplement or other modification to any such agreement and such consent is not obtained, references in this Agreement to such agreement shall be to such agreement as so amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified. Any reference herein to any Person shall be construed to include such Person’s successors and assigns permitted hereunder. (q) References in this Agreement to any statute shall be to such statute as amended or modified, together with any successor legislation, in each case in effect at the time any such reference is operative. (r) The term “including” when used in any Loan Document means “including without limitation” except when used in the computation of time periods. (s) The terms “Lender,” “Issuer” and “Administrative Agent” include, without limitation, their respective successors. (t) Upon the appointment of any successor Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.6, references to JPMorgan in Section 10.3 shall be deemed to refer to the financial institution then acting as the Administrative Agent or one of its Affiliates if it so designates. (u) Any references herein or under any other Loan Document to a security interest being “granted” or “perfected” shall be deemed to refer to a grant or perfection under the Uniform Commercial Code of any U.S. jurisdiction and to similar provisions, concepts or terms under the law of any other jurisdiction (it being understood that in jurisdictions where no such similar provisions, concepts or terms exist, the terms “granted” or “perfected” shall not be given any effect hereunder or under any other Loan Document). (v) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, except for any Loan or Issuance in respect of the Initial Revolving Credit Facility, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document which requires that no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Borrower, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Transaction are entered into. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (i), and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the date the definitive agreements for the applicable Limited Condition Transaction were entered into and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to not have


 
78 occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder. (w) Unless otherwise specified herein, the baskets set forth in Article VIII of this Agreement (or in any defined term used in Article VIII) shall be tested solely at the time of consummation of the relevant transaction or action utilizing any of such baskets and, for the avoidance of doubt, if any of such baskets are exceeded as a result of fluctuations to Consolidated Total Assets for the most recently completed Financial Covenant Period after the last time such baskets were calculated for any purpose under Article VIII, such baskets will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If any Indebtedness or Liens securing Indebtedness are incurred to refinance Indebtedness or Liens securing Indebtedness, in each case, initially incurred in reliance on a basket measured by reference to a percentage of Consolidated Total Assets at the time of incurrence, and such refinancing would cause the percentage of Consolidated Total Assets restriction to be exceeded if calculated based on the Consolidated Total Assets on the date of such refinancing, such percentage of Consolidated Total Assets restriction shall not be deemed to be exceeded so long as the principal amount of such Indebtedness or Indebtedness secured by such Liens, as applicable, does not exceed the principal amount of such Indebtedness or Indebtedness secured by such Liens, as applicable, being refinanced, plus an amount equal to premiums, defeasance costs and fees and expenses in connection therewith. (x) Any reference herein to financial statements of the Borrower being available will also refer to those financial statements of a Parent Entity whose financial statements satisfy the Borrower’s reporting obligations under Section 6.1. (y) Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to (i) a transfer, assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company (collectively, a “Division”), as if it were a transfer, assignment, sale or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to a separate Person, and (ii) a merger, consolidation, amalgamation or consolidation, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to the division of or by a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company, or the unwinding of such a division or allocation, as if it were a merger, consolidation, amalgamation or consolidation or similar term, as applicable, with a separate Person. Any Division of a limited liability company, corporation or partnership shall be deemed to constitute the formation of a separate Person, and such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Stock at such time. Section 1.5 Loan Document Definitions. The parties hereto agree that, unless otherwise defined or stated therein, capitalized terms used in each Loan Document shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in this Agreement (as may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time).


 
79 ARTICLE II The Facilities Section 2.1 The Initial Commitments. (n) Initial Revolving Credit Commitments. On the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Initial Revolving Credit Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make loans to Borrower in Dollars (each an “Initial Revolving Loan”), in each case in accordance with such Revolving Credit Lender’s Initial Revolving Credit Commitment, from time to time on any Business Day during the period from the Closing Date until the day that is one Business Day prior to the Revolving Credit Termination Date in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding for all such loans by such Revolving Credit Lender not to exceed such Initial Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment; provided that at no time shall any Revolving Credit Lender be obligated to make an Initial Revolving Loan which would exceed such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Available Credit. Within the limits of each Lender’s Initial Revolving Credit Commitment, amounts of Revolving Loans repaid may be reborrowed under this Section 2.1. (o) Initial Term Loan Commitments. On the Closing Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions contained in this Agreement, each Initial Term Loan Lender severally and not jointly agrees to make a term loan in Dollars to Borrower in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Initial Term Loan Commitment which Initial Term Loan shall be available to Borrower pursuant to such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Initial Term Loan Commitments. Amounts of Initial Term Loans repaid or prepaid may not be reborrowed. The undrawn amount of the Initial Term Loan Commitment following the borrowing of the Initial Term Loans on the Closing Date, if any, shall be automatically cancelled and terminated. Section 2.2 Borrowing Procedures. (n) Revolving Credit Borrowings. Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be made on notice given by Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than (i) 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the Business Day at the proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) 1:00 P.M. New York time, three U.S .Government Securities Business Days (or, with respect to the Closing Date, such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent), in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Rate Loan and Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans. Each such notice shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit C (a “Notice of Borrowing”), specifying (A) the date of such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing, (B) the aggregate amount of such proposed Revolving Credit Borrowing, (C) whether any portion thereof will be of Base Rate Loans , Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans and (D) the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods for any such Term SOFR Rate Loans. Any Notice of Borrowing delivered in connection with the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date may be revoked by Borrower subject to Section 2.14(e) hereof. The


 
80 Revolving Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless, subject to Section 2.14, the Notice of Borrowing specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be Daily Simple SOFR Rate or Term SOFR Rate Loans. Each Revolving Credit Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is not less than $1,000,000. (o) Term Loan Borrowings. All Borrowings of Term Loans shall be made upon receipt of a Notice of Borrowing given by Borrower to the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 p.m. (New York Time) (i) one Business Day prior to the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Term Loans, in the case of a Borrowing of Base Rate Loans and (ii) three U.S. Government Securities Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior to the Closing Date, in the case of Initial Term Loans, in the case of a Borrowing of Term SOFR Rate Loans. The Notice of Borrowing shall specify (A) the Closing Date, (B) the aggregate amount of such proposed Borrowings, (C) whether any portion thereof will be made as Base Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans and (D) the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods for any such Term SOFR Rate Loans. Any Notice of Borrowing delivered in connection with the funding of the Facilities on the Closing Date may be revoked by Borrower subject to Section 2.14(e) hereof. Term Loans shall be made as Base Rate Loans unless (subject to Section 2.14) the Notice of Borrowing specifies that all or a portion thereof shall be Term SOFR Rate Loans. (p) The Administrative Agent shall give to each applicable Lender prompt notice of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of Borrowing and, if Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans are properly requested in such Notice of Borrowing, the applicable interest rate determined pursuant to Section 2.14(a). Each Lender shall, before 12:00 P.M. (New York time) on the date of the proposed Borrowing, make available to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.9, in immediately available funds, such Lender’s Ratable Portion of such proposed Borrowing. After the Administrative Agent’s receipt of such funds and upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 3.1 and Section 3.2, as applicable, the Administrative Agent will promptly make such funds available to Borrower and in any event within one Business Day thereafter. (q) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any proposed Borrowing with respect to which such Lender holds a Commitment that such Lender shall not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with this Section 2.2 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall not have so made such Ratable Portion available to the Administrative Agent within three Business Days of the date of such Borrowing, such Lender and Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made


 
81 available to Borrower until the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of Borrower, the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, the Federal Funds Rate for the first Business Day and thereafter at the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing. If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such corresponding amount so repaid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement. If Borrower shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such payment shall not relieve such Lender of any obligation it may have hereunder to Borrower. (r) The occurrence of any Revolving Credit Lender becoming a Defaulting Lender shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligations to make such Loan or payment on such date but no such other Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any Defaulting Lender to make a Loan or a payment required under this Agreement. Section 2.3 [Reserved]. Section 2.4 Letters of Credit. (n) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Issuer agrees to Issue and amend (including, without limitation, to increase or decrease the stated amount of each Letter of Credit) at the request and for the account of Borrower, or (so long as the Borrower is solely liable hereunder with respect to any Reimbursement Obligations relating to any such Letter of Credit, which liability may, at the request of the Borrower, be evidenced by a Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement as described in Section 2.4(e) below) any of the Borrower’s Restricted Subsidiaries or any Related Corporation one or more Letters of Credit from time to time on any Business Day during the period commencing on the Closing Date and ending on the earlier of the Revolving Credit Termination Date and 5 days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date; provided that in the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Request submitted by Borrower or any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Issuer shall be under any obligation to, and with respect to clause (iv) below no Issuer shall, Issue any Letter of Credit upon the occurrence of any of the following: (A) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall purport by its terms to enjoin or restrain such Issuer from Issuing such Letter of Credit or any Requirement of Law applicable to such Issuer or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over such Issuer shall prohibit, or request that such Issuer refrain from, the Issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose upon such Issuer with respect to such Letter of Credit any


 
82 restriction or reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuer is not otherwise compensated) not in effect on the Closing Date or result in any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable, in effect or known to such Issuer as of the Closing Date and that such Issuer in good faith deems material to it; (B) such Issuer shall have received written notice from the Administrative Agent or Borrower, on or prior to the requested date of Issuance of such Letter of Credit, that one or more of the applicable conditions contained in (A) for Letters of Credit issued on or prior to the Closing Date, Section 3.1 and (B) for Letters of Credit issued after the Closing Date, Section 3.2 or Section 3.4, in each case, are not then satisfied; (C) after giving effect to the Issuance of any such Letter of Credit the Revolving Credit Outstandings would exceed the Revolving Credit Commitments in effect at such time; (D) after giving effect to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit, the sum of (i) the Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts at such time and (ii) the Reimbursement Obligations at such time would exceed $100,000,000; or (E) after giving effect to the Issuance of such Letter of Credit, the sum of (i) the Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts at such time and (ii) the Reimbursement Obligations, in each case with respect to Letters of Credit Issued by such Issuer, at such time would exceed such Issuer’s Letter of Credit Allocation; and (F) any fees due in connection with a requested Issuance have not been paid. None of the Revolving Credit Lenders (other than the Issuers in their capacity as such) shall have any obligation to Issue any Letter of Credit. (o) In no event shall the expiration date of any Letter of Credit (i) be more than one year after the date of issuance thereof or such longer term as acceptable to the applicable Issuer or (ii) be less than five days prior to the Scheduled Termination Date except to the extent that an amount equal to 103% of such Letter of Credit has been deposited in a Cash Collateral Account or a back-up letter of credit has been issued, in either case on terms satisfactory to the applicable Issuer; provided that any Letter of Credit with a term of one year or longer may provide for the renewal thereof for additional one-year periods (which shall in no event extend beyond the expiry date referred to in clause (ii) above) or such longer periods as is acceptable the applicable Issuer.


 
83 (p) In connection with the Issuance of each Letter of Credit under the Revolving Credit Facility, Borrower shall give the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent at least two Business Days’ prior written notice in substantially the form of Exhibit E (or in such other written or electronic form as is acceptable to the Issuer), of the requested Issuance of such Letter of Credit (a “Letter of Credit Request”). Such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the Issuer of such Letter of Credit, the stated amount of the Letter of Credit requested, which stated amount shall not be less than $100,000, the date of Issuance of such requested Letter of Credit, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which date shall be a Business Day), and, in the case of an issuance, the Person for whose benefit the requested Letter of Credit is to be Issued and the Person for whose account the requested Letter of Credit is being issued. Such notice, to be effective, must be received by the relevant Issuer and the Administrative Agent not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York time) on the second Business Day prior to the requested Issuance of such Letter of Credit. (q) Subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in this Section 2.4, the relevant Issuer shall, on the requested date, Issue a Letter of Credit on behalf of Borrower, a Restricted Subsidiary or Related Corporation, as applicable and subject to the liability requirements described in Section 2.4(a) above, in accordance with such Issuer’s usual and customary business practices. No Issuer shall Issue any Letter of Credit in the period commencing on the first Business Day after it receives written notice from the Administrative Agent that one or more of the conditions precedent contained in Section 3.2 shall not on such date be satisfied, and ending when such conditions are satisfied. The relevant Issuer shall not otherwise be required to determine that, or take notice whether, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 have been satisfied in connection with the Issuance of any Letter of Credit. (r) If requested by the relevant Issuer, prior to the issuance of each Letter of Credit by such Issuer, and as a condition of such Issuance and of the participation of each applicable Revolving Credit Lender in the Letter of Credit Obligations arising with respect thereto, Borrower shall have delivered to such Issuer a letter of credit reimbursement agreement, in such form as the Issuer may employ in its ordinary course of business for its own account (a “Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement”), signed by Borrower, and such other documents or items as may be required pursuant to the terms thereof. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall govern. (s) Each Issuer shall: (A) give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice confirmed promptly thereafter in writing, which writing may be a facsimile or electronic mail) of the Issuance of a Letter of Credit Issued by it, of all drawings under a Letter of Credit Issued by it and the payment (or the failure to pay when due) by Borrower of any Reimbursement Obligation when due (which notice the Administrative


 
84 Agent shall promptly transmit by facsimile, electronic mail or similar transmission to each Revolving Credit Lender); (B) upon the request of any Revolving Credit Lender, furnish to such Revolving Credit Lender copies of any Letter of Credit Reimbursement Agreement to which such Issuer is a party and such other documentation as may reasonably be requested by such Revolving Credit Lender; and (C) no later than ten Business Days following the last day of each calendar month, provide to the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent shall provide a copy to each Revolving Credit Lender requesting the same) and Borrower separate schedules for documentary and standby Letters of Credit Issued by it, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, setting forth the Letter of Credit Obligations outstanding at the end of each month and any information requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent relating thereto. (t) Immediately upon the Issuance by an Issuer of a Letter of Credit in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, such Issuer shall be deemed to have sold and transferred to each Revolving Credit Lender and each such Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed irrevocably and unconditionally to have purchased and received from such Issuer, without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation, to the extent of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the Revolving Credit Commitments in such Letter of Credit and the obligations of Borrower with respect thereto (including all Letter of Credit Obligations with respect thereto) and any security therefor and guaranty pertaining thereto (in each case to the extent not exceeding such Revolving Credit Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment). (u) Borrower agrees to pay to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit the amount of all Reimbursement Obligations owing to such Issuer under any Letter of Credit issued for its account or the account of any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or Related Corporations no later than the date (the “Reimbursement Date”) that is the next succeeding Business Day after Borrower receives written notice from such Issuer that payment has been made under such Letter of Credit, irrespective of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that Borrower may have at any time against such Issuer or any other Person; provided that any such Reimbursement Obligations may be paid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.13(g); provided further that if after giving effect to any payment under any Letter of Credit, the amount of Available Credit is less than the amount of such Reimbursement Obligation owed by Borrower, Borrower may borrow Revolving Loans for the purpose of paying such Reimbursement Obligation owing by it to the extent that after giving effect to such borrowing and reimbursement, the sum of Revolving Credit Outstandings does not exceed the aggregate amount of Revolving Credit Commitments. In the event that any Issuer makes any payment under any Letter of Credit and Borrower shall not have repaid such amount to such Issuer pursuant to this clause (h) or such


 
85 payment is rescinded or set aside for any reason such Issuer shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent, that shall promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such failure, and each Revolving Credit Lender shall promptly and unconditionally pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer the amount of such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of such payment in immediately available funds. If the Administrative Agent so notifies such Revolving Credit Lender prior to 12:00 P.M. (New York time) on any Business Day, such Revolving Credit Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment on such Business Day in immediately available funds. Upon such payment by a Revolving Credit Lender, such Revolving Credit Lender shall, except during the continuance of an Event of Default under Section 9.1(f) and notwithstanding whether the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 shall have been satisfied (which conditions precedent the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders hereby irrevocably waive), be deemed to have made a Revolving Loan to Borrower in the principal amount of such payment. Whenever any Issuer receives from Borrower a payment of a Reimbursement Obligation as to which the Administrative Agent has received for the account of such Issuer any payment from a Revolving Credit Lender pursuant to this clause (h), such Issuer shall pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to each applicable Revolving Credit Lender, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to such Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of the amount of such payment adjusted, if necessary, to reflect the respective amounts the Revolving Credit Lenders have paid in respect of such Reimbursement Obligation. (v) Borrower’s obligation to pay each Reimbursement Obligation owing by it and the obligations of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders to make payments to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Issuer with respect to Letters of Credit Issued by it shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, including the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, and irrespective of any of the following: (A) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein; (B) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document; (C) the existence of any claim, set off, defense or other right that Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, any Issuer, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;


 
86 (D) any draft or other document presented under a 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; (E) payment by the Issuer under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and (F) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the Issuer, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.4, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Any action taken or omitted to be taken by the relevant Issuer under or in connection with any Letter of Credit, if taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment), shall not put such Issuer under any resulting liability to Borrower or any Revolving Credit Lender. In determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof, the Issuer may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit the Issuer may rely exclusively on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute willful misconduct or gross negligence of the Issuer. (w) If and to the extent such Revolving Credit Lender shall not have so made its Ratable Portion of the amount of the payment required by clause (h) above available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, such Revolving Credit Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for the first Business Day after payment was first due at the Federal Funds Rate, and thereafter until such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer, at the rate per annum applicable to Base Rate Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility. The failure of any Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for


 
87 the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of any such payment shall not relieve any other Revolving Credit Lender of its obligation hereunder to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuer its Ratable Portion of any payment on the date such payment is to be made, but no Revolving Credit Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Revolving Credit Lender to make available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuer such other Revolving Credit Lender’s Ratable Portion of any such payment. (x) If any Issuer shall fail to comply with the terms of this Section 2.4, then the Administrative Agent may, in its reasonable discretion, terminate such Person’s role as Issuer hereunder upon ten Business Days prior written notice to such Issuer and Borrower; provided that, at all times there shall be at least one Issuer. (y) All Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed to have been issued pursuant hereto, and from and after the Closing Date shall be subject to and governed by the terms and conditions hereof. Section 2.5 Reduction and Termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments. Borrower may, upon at least three Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent, terminate in whole or reduce in part ratably the unused portions of the respective Revolving Credit Commitments of the Revolving Credit Lenders under the Revolving Credit Facility; provided that each partial reduction shall be in an aggregate amount equal to $1,000,000. Any reduction of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.5 shall be applied to the Revolving Credit Commitments of each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with each such Lender’s Ratable Portion of such reduction. Section 2.6 Repayment of Loans. (n) Borrower promises to repay the entire unpaid principal amount of the Initial Revolving Loans owing by it on the Scheduled Termination Date (it being understood that other provisions of this Agreement may require all or part of such Obligations to be repaid earlier). (o) Borrower shall repay any Incremental Facility owing by it in accordance with the terms set forth in the applicable Incremental Amendment. (p) The Borrower promises to repay the Term Loans (A)(i) on the first Business Day following the end of each Fiscal Quarter of Borrower, commencing with the first full Fiscal Quarter ending after a Qualifying Threshold IPO and for each Fiscal Quarter of Borrower thereafter ending prior to the third anniversary of such Fiscal Quarter, in each case in an amount equal to 1.25% of the original principal amount of the Initial Term Loans made on the Closing Date and (ii) on the first Business Day following the end of each Fiscal Quarter of Borrower thereafter, an amount equal to 2.50% of the original principal amount of the Initial Term Loans made on the Closing Date (in each case, as such payments may be reduced from time to time as a result of the application of


 
88 prepayments pursuant to Section 2.8 and Section 2.9 or increased as a result of any increase in the amount of the Initial Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.21(a)) and (B) on the Term Loan Maturity Date, the remainder of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans outstanding on such date. (q) Borrower shall repay any Incremental Term Facility in accordance with the terms set forth in the applicable Incremental Amendment. Section 2.7 Evidence of Debt. (n) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing Indebtedness of Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. In addition, each Lender having sold a participation in any of its Obligations or having identified a Special Purpose Vehicle as such to the Administrative Agent, acting as non- fiduciary agent of Borrower solely for this purpose and for tax purposes, shall establish and maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.9 a record of ownership in which such Lender shall register by book entry (i) the name and address of each such Participant and Special Purpose Vehicle (and each change thereto, whether by assignment or otherwise) and (ii) the rights, interests or obligation of each such Participant or Special Purpose Vehicle in any Obligation, in any Revolving Credit Commitment and in any right to receive payment hereunder; provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of any such record of ownership (including the identity of any Participant or Special Purpose Vehicle or any information relating to the interests in any Obligation, Revolving Credit Commitment or other right to receive payment hereunder) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary (i) to establish that such Obligation, Revolving Credit Commitment or other right is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations or (ii) for the Borrower to enforce its rights hereunder. (o) The Administrative Agent shall maintain a record of ownership (the “Register”) in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made and, if a Term SOFR Rate Loan, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable by Borrower to each Lender hereunder, (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from Borrower, whether such sum constitutes principal or interest (and the Type of Loan to which it applies), fees, expenses or other amounts due under the Loan Documents and each Lender’s share thereof, if applicable and (iv) the information specified in Section 11.2(d). (p) The entries made in the accounts and in the Register maintained pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations recorded therein; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.


 
89 (q) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Agreement, in the event that any Lender requests that Borrower execute and deliver a promissory note or notes payable to such Lender in order to evidence the Indebtedness owing to such Lender by Borrower hereunder, Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver a Note or Notes to such Lender evidencing any Term Loans and Revolving Loans, as the case may be, of such Lender, substantially in the forms of Exhibit B-1 or Exhibit B-2, respectively. Section 2.8 Optional Prepayments. (n) Revolving Loans. Borrower may, upon at least one Business Day’s prior notice to the Administrative Agent, stating the proposed date, aggregate principal amount of the prepayment and the Tranche(s) of Revolving Loans to be prepaid, prepay the outstanding principal amount of its Revolving Loans in whole or in part; provided that if any prepayment of any (i) Term SOFR Rate Loan is made by Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan or (ii) Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan is made by Borrower other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor, Borrower shall, in each case, also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14(e); provided, further, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $1,000,000. If any such notice of prepayment is given and not revoked, the principal amount of Revolving Loans specified to be prepaid shall become due and payable on the date specified for such prepayment. (o) Term Loans. Borrower may, upon (i) at least three Business Days’ prior notice in the case of Term SOFR Rate Loans or (ii) at least one Business Day’s prior notice in the case of Base Rate Loans, in each case, to the Administrative Agent stating the proposed date, aggregate principal amount of the prepayment and (subject to the following sentence) the Tranche(s) of Term Loans to be prepaid, prepay the outstanding principal amount of its Term Loans, in whole or in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the principal amount prepaid; provided that if any prepayment of any Term SOFR Rate Loan is made by Borrower other than on the last day of an Interest Period for such Loan, Borrower shall also pay any amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.14(e); provided, further, that each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000. Any such partial prepayment shall be allocated pro rata among the Initial Term Loans, the Incremental Term Loans, the Extended Term Loans and the Specified Refinancing Term Loans (in each case, to the extent ranking pari passu in right of payment and security with the Initial Term Loans) and shall be applied within each such Tranche of Term Loans to the respective installments of principal thereof in the manner directed by Borrower (or, if no such direction is given, in direct order of maturity); provided that at the request of Borrower, in lieu of such application on a pro rata basis among all such Tranches of Term Loans, such prepayment may be applied to any such Tranche of Term Loans so long as the maturity date of such Tranche of Term Loans precedes the maturity date of each other Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding or, in the event more than one such Tranche of Term Loans shall have an identical maturity date that precedes the maturity date of each other such Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding, to such Tranches on a pro rata


 
90 basis. If any such notice of prepayment is given and not revoked, the principal amount of the Term Loans specified to be prepaid shall become due and payable on the date specified for such prepayment. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 2.8, a Lender may, at its option, and if agreed by Borrower, in connection with any prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this clause (b), exchange such Lender’s portion of the Term Loan to be prepaid for Rollover Indebtedness, in lieu of such Lender’s pro rata portion of such prepayment (and any such Term Loans so exchanged shall be deemed repaid for all purposes under the Loan Documents). (p) Discounted Term Loan Prepayments. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, Borrower may prepay the outstanding Term Loans (x) through open market purchases (other than with the proceeds of any Revolving Loans) or (y) so long as no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom on the following basis: (A) Borrower shall have the right to make a voluntary prepayment of Term Loans at a discount to par (such prepayment, the “Discounted Term Loan Prepayment”) pursuant to a Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment, Borrower Solicitation of Discount Range Prepayment Offers or Borrower Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers, in each case made in accordance with this Section 2.8(c); provided that (A) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by Borrower, there shall be not less than $30,000,000 of Liquidity, (B) in no event shall any proceeds from Revolving Loans be used to finance any Discount Range Prepayment Offer and (C) Borrower shall not initiate any action under this clause (c) in order to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment unless (1) at least ten Business Days shall have passed since the consummation of the most recent Discounted Term Loan Prepayment as a result of a prepayment made by Borrower on the applicable Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, or (2) at least three Business Days shall have passed since the date Borrower was notified that no Term Loan Lender was willing to accept any prepayment of any Term Loan at the Specified Discount, within the Discount Range or at any discount to par value, as applicable, or in the case of Borrower Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers, the date of Borrower’s election not to accept any Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers made by a Term Loan Lender. Any Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) shall be immediately and automatically permanently cancelled. (B) Subject to the proviso to Section 2.8(c)(i) above, Borrower may from time to time offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by providing the Administrative Agent with three Business Days’ notice in the form of a Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (1) any such offer shall be made available to each


 
91 Term Loan Lender or, at the option of Borrower, to each Term Loan Lender with respect to any Tranche on an individual Tranche basis; provided that if Borrower makes an offer to prepay any later maturing Tranche of Term Loans, it shall make a simultaneous offer to prepay a pro rata share of each earlier maturing Tranche(s) of Term Loans, (2) any such offer shall specify the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount offered to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Amount”), the Tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the specific percentage discount to par value (the “Specified Discount”) of the Term Loan Outstanding Amount of such Loans to be prepaid, (3) the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000, and (4) each such offer shall remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date (subject to Section 2.8(c)(x) below). The Administrative Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Loan Lender with a copy of such Specified Discount Prepayment Notice and a form of the Specified Discount Prepayment Response to be completed and returned by each such Term Loan Lender to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the seventh Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Loan Lenders (the “Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date”). Each relevant Term Loan Lender receiving such offer shall notify the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by delivery of a Specified Discount Prepayment Response no later than the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its relevant then outstanding Term Loans at the Specified Discount and, if so (such accepting Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount of such Term Loan Lender’s Term Loan Outstanding Amount and Tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Term Loan Lender whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept such Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment. If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, Borrower shall make a prepayment of outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.8(c)(ii) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in accordance with the respective Term Loan Outstanding Amount and Tranches of Term Loans specified in such Term Loan Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given pursuant to the foregoing clause (B); provided that, if the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of Term Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such prepayment shall be made on a pro rata basis among the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders in accordance with the respective Term Loan Outstanding Amounts accepted to be prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment


 
92 Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation with Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days following the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (1) Borrower of the respective Term Loan Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, and the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (2) each Term Loan Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, and the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and the Tranches of all Term Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date, and (3) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount Proration, if any, and confirmation of the Term Loan Outstanding Amount, Tranche and Type of Loans of such Term Loan Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to Borrower shall be due and payable by Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Section 2.8(c)(vi) below (subject to Section 2.8(c)(x) below). (C) Subject to the proviso to Section 2.8(c)(i) above, Borrower may from time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing the Administrative Agent with three Business Days’ notice in the form of a Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (1) any such solicitation shall be extended or, at the option of Borrower, to each Term Loan Lender or to each Term Loan Lender with respect to any Tranche on an individual Tranche basis; provided that if Borrower makes such a solicitation to any later maturing Tranche of Term Loans, it shall make a simultaneous solicitation for a pro rata share of each earlier maturing Tranche(s) of Term Loans, (2) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the relevant Term Loans Borrower is willing to prepay at a discount (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”), the Tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the Term Loan Outstanding Amount of such Term Loans willing to be prepaid by Borrower, (3) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000, and (4) each such solicitation by Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date (subject to Section 2.8(c)(x) below). The Administrative Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Loan Lender with a copy of such Discount Range Prepayment Notice and a form of the Discount Range Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding relevant Term Loan Lender to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time, on the seventh Business Day after the date of


 
93 delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Loan Lenders (the “Discount Range Prepayment Response Date”). Each relevant Term Loan Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which such Term Loan Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term Loans and the maximum aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Term Loans such Term Loan Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount (the “Submitted Amount”). Any Term Loan Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range. The Administrative Agent shall review all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by it by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date and will determine (in consultation with Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Loans to be prepaid at such Applicable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.8(c)(iii). Borrower agrees to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount Range Prepayment Offers received by Administrative Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order from the Submitted Discount that is the largest discount to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted Discount that is the smallest discount to par being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which yields a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment in an aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount equal to the lesser of (1) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (2) the sum of all Submitted Amounts. Each Term Loan Lender that has submitted a Discount Range Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to Section 2.8(c)(iii)(C) or by Section 2.8(c)(xi) below) at the Applicable Discount (each such Term Loan Lender, a “Participating Lender”). If there is at least one Participating Lender, Borrower shall make a prepayment of the respective outstanding Term Loans of each Participating Lender in the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and of the Tranches specified in such Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the Submitted Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater than the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discount Range Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the relevant Term Loans for those Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall be made on a pro rata basis among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with the Submitted


 
94 Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation with Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly, and in any case within five Business Days following the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, notify (w) Borrower of the respective Term Loan Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (x) each Term Loan Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and Tranches of all Term Loans to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (y) each Participating Lender of the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and Tranches and Type of Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to Borrower shall be due and payable by Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Section 2.8(c)(vi) (subject to Section 2.8(c)(x) below). (D) Subject to the proviso to Section 2.8(c)(i) above, Borrower may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers by providing the Administrative Agent with three Business Days’ notice in the form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice; provided that (1) any such solicitation shall be extended or, at the option of Borrower, to each Term Loan Lender or to each Term Loan Lender with respect to any Tranche on an individual Tranche basis; provided that if Borrower makes such a solicitation to any later maturing Tranche of Term Loans, it shall make a simultaneous solicitation of a pro rata share of each earlier maturing Tranche(s) of Term Loans, (2) any such notice shall specify the maximum aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans and the Tranches of Term Loans Borrower is willing to prepay at a discount (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount”), (3) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount shall be in an aggregate amount not less than $1,000,000 and whole increments of $500,000, and (4) each such solicitation by Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date (subject to Section 2.8(c)(x) below). The Administrative Agent will promptly provide each relevant Term Loan Lender with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Term Loan Lender to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 p.m., New York time on the seventh Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Term Loan Lenders (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Term Loan Lender’s


 
95 Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding until the Acceptance Date, and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”) at which such Term Loan Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then outstanding Term Loans and the maximum aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Term Loans (the “Offered Amount”) such Term Loan Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any Term Loan Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par value. The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide Borrower with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by it by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. Borrower shall review all such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select, at its sole discretion, the smallest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Term Loan Lenders in the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that Borrower is willing to accept (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any; provided that the Acceptable Discount shall not be an Offered Discount that is larger than the smallest Offered Discount for which the sum of all Offered Amounts affiliated with Offered Discounts that are larger than or equal to such smallest Offered Discount would, if purchased at such smallest Offered Discount, yield an amount at least equal to the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount. If Borrower elects to accept any Offered Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third Business Day after the date of receipt by Borrower from the Administrative Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the first sentence of this clause (B) (the “Acceptance Date”), Borrower shall submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Administrative Agent setting forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to receive an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from Borrower by the Acceptance Date, Borrower shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers. Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within five Business Days after receipt of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment Determination Date”), the Administrative Agent will determine (in consultation with Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and the Tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be prepaid by Borrower at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this Section 2.8(c). If Borrower elects to accept any Acceptable Discount, then Borrower agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered Discount, up to and including the Acceptable


 
96 Discount. Each Lender that has submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at an Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Offered Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Term Loan Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”). Borrower shall prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.8(c)(iv) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount, prepayment of the Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made on a pro rata basis among the Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation with Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify (w) Borrower of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (x) each Term Loan Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all Term Loans and the Tranches to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (y) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount and the Tranches and Type of Loans of such Term Loan Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount Proration. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing notices to Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to Borrower shall be due and payable by Borrower on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Section 2.8(c)(vi) below (subject to Section 2.8(c)(x) below). (E) In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent may require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of customary fees and expenses from Borrower in connection therewith. (F) If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with Section 2.8(c)(ii) through (iv) above, Borrower shall prepay such Term Loans on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Borrower shall make such prepayment to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or


 
97 Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in immediately available funds not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal installments of the Term Loans as directed by Borrower. Term Loans so prepaid shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date (together with any amounts payable with respect to such prepayment pursuant to Section 2.14(e)). Each prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) shall be paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Tranches of the Term Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate Term Loan Outstanding Amount of the Tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment. The Lenders hereby agree that, in connection with a prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (i) interest payments in respect of the Term Loans may be made on a non-pro rata basis among the Lenders holding such Term Loans to reflect the payment of accrued interest to certain Lenders as provided in this Section 2.8(c)(vi) and (ii) all subsequent prepayments and repayments of the Term Loans (except as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement) shall be made on a pro rata basis among the respective Lenders based upon the then outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the respective Lenders after giving effect to any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) as if made at par. It is also understood and agreed that prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) shall not be subject to Section 2.8(b), or, for the avoidance of doubt, Section 11.8(a) or the pro rata allocation requirements of Section 2.13(e). (G) To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures consistent, with the provisions in this Section 2.8(c), established by the Administrative Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by Borrower. (H) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, for purposes of this Section 2.8(c), each notice or other communication required to be delivered or otherwise provided to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) shall be deemed to have been given upon Administrative Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any notice or communication actually received outside of normal business


 
98 hours shall be deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day. (I) Each of Borrower and the Lenders acknowledges and agrees that Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties under this Section 2.8(c) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Administrative Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Administrative Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate. The exculpatory provisions in this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the Administrative Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.8(c) as well as to activities of the Administrative Agent in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Section 2.8(c). (J) Borrower shall have the right, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, Discount Range Prepayment Response Date or Acceptance Date, as the case may be (and if such offer is so revoked, any failure by Borrower to make any prepayment to a Term Loan Lender, as applicable, pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default under Section 9.1 or otherwise). (K) This Section 2.8(c) shall not (i) require Borrower to undertake any prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.8(c) or (ii) limit or restrict Borrower from making voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement. (q) Any notice of prepayment delivered under Section 2.8(a) or 2.8(b) above or any notice of termination or reduction pursuant to Section 2.5 may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the effectiveness of credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked (or extended) by Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effectiveness date) if such condition is not satisfied or waived by the Borrower. (r) [Reserved]. (s) Borrower shall not have any right to prepay the principal amount of any Revolving Loan or any Term Loan other than as provided in this Section 2.8.


 
99 (t) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.8 may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendments) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of Term Loans added pursuant to Sections 2.21 and 2.22, as applicable. Section 2.9 Mandatory Prepayments. (n) Upon receipt by: (A) Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds arising from a Disposition (other than a Disposition permitted under Section 8.4(a) through (g) or (i) through (l)), Borrower shall promptly pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, within fifteen days of receipt thereof, an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; (B) Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds arising from a Property Loss Event, Borrower shall promptly pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, within fifteen days of receipt thereof, an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; (C) Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries of Net Cash Proceeds arising from the incurrence of Indebtedness (A) other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 8.1 (other than Section 8.1(a)(ii) or 8.1(b)) or (B) pursuant to any Specified Refinancing Facility, Borrower shall promptly pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent within three Business Days of receipt thereof, an aggregate amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds; and (D) Borrower of Net Cash Proceeds arising from a Qualifying Target Threshold IPO, Borrower shall promptly pay (or cause to be paid) to the Administrative Agent, within five (5) Business Days of receipt thereof, an amount equal to the lesser of (x) Net Cash Proceeds arising from the Qualifying Target Threshold IPO and (y) 50% of the original principal amount of the Initial Term Loans; provided that (A) in the case of any Net Cash Proceeds arising from a Reinvestment Event, relevant Net Cash Proceeds will not be paid to the Administrative Agent, but Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.9(c) in an aggregate amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount applicable to such Reinvestment Event, if any, on the Reinvestment Prepayment Date with respect to such Reinvestment Event, (B) in the case of any such Net Cash Proceeds received by a Foreign Subsidiary of Borrower such Net Cash Proceeds shall not be required to be applied to prepay the Term Loans if, and to the extent, Borrower determines that either (i) such


 
100 prepayments would result in material adverse tax consequences related to the repatriation of funds in connection therewith or (ii) such prepayment would be prohibited or delayed by a Requirement of Law, and (C) except during the continuance of an Event of Default under Sections 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f), all Net Cash Proceeds received by Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (1) from Dispositions which individually yield not more than $1,000,000 in Net Cash Proceeds and (2) from Dispositions (x) individually yielding more than $1,000,000 and less than $2,500,000 of Net Cash Proceeds in a single transaction and (y) collectively yielding up to $7,500,000 of Net Cash Proceeds from such Dispositions in each Fiscal Year, shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 2.9. Any mandatory prepayment pursuant to this clause (a), shall be applied to the Obligations by the Administrative Agent in accordance with clause (c) below. (o) Borrower shall prepay the Loans in accordance with Section 2.9(c) within 110 days following the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year (commencing with the Fiscal Year ending on or about December 31, 2022) (each, an “ECF Payment Date”), in an amount equal to (i) 50% (as such percentage may be adjusted pursuant to the last proviso of this clause (b)) of Borrower’s Excess Cash Flow for such Fiscal Year, minus (ii) the sum of (q) the sum of any Investments made or maintained pursuant to Section 8.3 and any Capital Expenditures permitted hereunder, (r) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.6(c), (s) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (to the extent ranking pari passu in right of payment and security with the Initial Term Loans) prepaid pursuant to Section 2.8(b) during such Fiscal Year (which, in any event, shall not include any designated prepayment pursuant to clause (t) below), (t) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (to the extent ranking pari passu in right of payment and security with the Initial Term Loans) prepaid pursuant to Section 2.8(b) during the period beginning with the day following the last day of such Fiscal Year and ending on the ECF Payment Date and designated by Borrower as prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.9(b), (u) the aggregate principal amount of any Revolving Loans prepaid to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent commitment reduction under the Revolving Credit Facility during such Fiscal Year (which, in any event, shall not include any designated prepayment pursuant to clause (v) below), (v) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans prepaid to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent commitment reduction under the Revolving Credit Facility during the period beginning with the day following the last day of such Fiscal Year and ending on the ECF Payment Date and designated by Borrower as prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.9(b), (w) the aggregate principal amount of Pari Passu Indebtedness (and if constituting revolving Indebtedness, to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent commitment reduction thereunder) voluntarily prepaid, repaid, repurchased or retired during such Fiscal Year (which, in any event, shall not include any designated prepayment pursuant to clause (x) below), (x) the aggregate principal amount of Pari Passu Indebtedness (and if constituting revolving Indebtedness, to the extent accompanied by a corresponding permanent commitment reduction thereunder) voluntarily prepaid, repaid, repurchased or retired during the period beginning with the day following the last day of such Fiscal Year and ending on the ECF Payment Date and designated by Borrower as prepaid


 
101 pursuant to this Section 2.9(b), (y) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.8(c) and excluding other open market purchases of Term Loans (provided that such deduction for prepayments pursuant to Section 2.8(c) shall be limited to the actual cash amount of such prepayment) during such Fiscal Year (which, in any event, shall not include any designated prepayment pursuant to clause (z) below) and (z) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans prepaid pursuant to Section 2.8(c) and excluding other open market purchases of Term Loans (provided that such deduction for prepayments pursuant to Section 2.8(c) shall be limited to the actual cash amount of such prepayment) during the period beginning with the day following the last day of such Fiscal Year and ending on the ECF Payment Date and designated by Borrower as prepaid pursuant to this Section 2.9(b) in each case (other than clause (r) above), excluding prepayments funded with proceeds from the incurrence of long-term Indebtedness; provided that such percentage in clause (i) above shall be reduced to 0% if the Leverage Ratio as of the last day of the immediately preceding Fiscal Year was less than or equal to 2.50 to 1.00. (p) Subject to the last sentence of Section 2.9(d) and Section 2.9(f), in the case of any prepayments required under this Section 2.9, such prepayment (other than prepayments pursuant to Section 2.9(a)(iii)(B)) shall be allocated pro rata among the Initial Term Loans, the Incremental Term Loans, the Extended Term Loans and the Specified Refinancing Term Loans (in each case, to the extent ranking pari passu in right of payment and security with the Initial Term Loans) and shall be applied within each such Tranche of Term Loans to the respective installments of principal thereof in the manner directed by Borrower (or, if no such direction is given, in direct order of maturity); provided that at the request of Borrower, in lieu of such application on a pro rata basis among all such Tranches of Term Loans, such prepayment may be applied to any such Tranche of Term Loans so long as the maturity date of such Tranche of Term Loans precedes the maturity date of each other such Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding or, in the event more than one such Tranche of Term Loans shall have an identical maturity date that precedes the maturity date of each other such Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding, to such Tranches on a pro rata basis. (q) Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, so long as any Term Loans are outstanding, in the event Borrower is required to make any mandatory prepayment (a “Waivable Mandatory Prepayment”) of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.9(a) or Section 2.9(b) above, not less than ten Business Days prior to the date (the “Required Prepayment Date”) on which Borrower is required to make such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, Borrower shall notify Administrative Agent of the amount of such prepayment, and Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter notify each Lender holding an outstanding Term Loan of the amount of such Lender’s ratable share of such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment. The Borrower (in its sole discretion) may give each Lender the option (in its sole discretion) to elect to decline any such Waivable Mandatory Prepayment. If the Borrower has provided the Lenders with the option to decline a Waivable Mandatory Prepayment, each such Lender may, in its sole discretion, exercise such option by giving written notice to Borrower and Administrative


 
102 Agent of its election to do so on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date (it being understood that any Lender which does not notify Borrower and the Administrative Agent of its election to exercise such option on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the Required Prepayment Date shall be deemed to have elected, as of such date, not to exercise such option). On the Required Prepayment Date, Borrower shall retain an amount equal to that portion of the Waivable Mandatory Prepayment payable to those Lenders that have elected to exercise such option (the “Declined Amount”). (r) If at any time the Revolving Credit Outstandings exceed the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments at such time, Borrower shall forthwith prepay the outstanding balances of its respective Revolving Loans then outstanding in an amount equal to such excess on a pro rata basis. If any such excess remains after repayment in full of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Loans, Borrower shall provide Cash Collateral for their Letter of Credit Obligations in the manner set forth in Section 9.4 in an amount equal to 105% of such excess. (s) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Section 2.9 may be amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into any such amendments) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of Term Loans added pursuant to Sections 2.21, 2.22 and 2.24, as applicable. Section 2.10 Interest. (n) Rate of Interest. All Loans and the outstanding amount of all other Obligations shall bear interest, in the case of Loans, on the unpaid principal amount thereof from the date such Loans are made and, in the case of such other Obligations, from the date such other Obligations are due and payable until, in all cases, paid in full, except as otherwise provided in clause (c) below, as follows: (A) if a Base Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate as in effect from time to time and (B) the Applicable Margin; (B) if a Term SOFR Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Term SOFR Rate determined for the applicable Interest Period and (B) the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time during such Interest Period; (C) if a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Daily Simple SOFR Rate and (B) the Applicable Margin; and


 
103 (D) for all other Obligations, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (A) the Base Rate as in effect from time to time and (B) the Applicable Margin. (o) Interest Payments. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of Revolving Loans, upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term SOFR Rate Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion. (p) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the rates of interest specified in clause (a) above or elsewhere herein, effective immediately upon the occurrence of an Event of Default arising pursuant to clauses (a), (b) or (f) of Section 9.1 and for as long thereafter as such Event of Default shall be continuing, interest shall accrue (i) on past due amounts of principal at a rate that is 2.0% per annum in excess of the rate of interest applicable to such Loans and (ii) on all other past due Obligations at a rate equal to the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans plus 2.0% per annum. (q) Limitation on Interest. If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan Documents would obligate Borrower or any other Loan Party to make any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Lender in an amount or calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by law then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by law, such adjustment to be effected, to the extent necessary, by reducing the amount or rate of interest required to be paid to such Lender under this Section 2.10. Section 2.11 Conversion/Continuation Option. (n) Borrower may elect (i) at any time on any Business Day to convert its Base Rate Loans or any portion thereof to Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, (ii) at the end of any applicable Interest Period, to convert its Term SOFR Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans or to continue any Term SOFR Rate Loan or any portion thereof for an additional Interest Period and (iii) on the Interest Payment Date therefor, to convert its Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or any portion thereof into Base Rate Loans; provided that the aggregate amount of Term SOFR Rate Loans for each Interest Period must be in the amount that is not less than $1,000,000. Each conversion or continuation shall be allocated among the Loans of each Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the applicable Facility. Each such election shall be in substantially the form of Exhibit F (a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) and shall be made by giving the Administrative Agent at least three Business Days’ prior written notice specifying (A) the amount, Tranche and Type of


 
104 Loan being converted or continued, (B) in the case of a conversion to or a continuation of Term SOFR Rate Loans, the applicable Interest Period and (C) in the case of a conversion, the date of conversion. (o) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of a Notice of Conversion or Continuation and of the options selected therein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) no conversion in whole or in part of Base Rate Loans to Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, (ii) no continuation in whole or in part of Term SOFR Rate Loans upon the expiration of any applicable Interest Period and (iii) no election of an Interest Period in excess of one month in respect of Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be permitted at any time at which (A) a Default or an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing (unless the Requisite Lenders otherwise consent) or (B) the continuation of a Term SOFR Rate Loan, or conversion into, a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate Loan would violate any provision of Section 2.14. If, within the time period required under the terms of this Section 2.11, the Administrative Agent does not receive a Notice of Conversion or Continuation from Borrower containing a permitted election to continue any Term SOFR Rate Loans for an additional Interest Period or to convert any such Term SOFR Rate Loans, then, upon the expiration of the applicable Interest Period, Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be automatically converted to Base Rate Loans. Each Notice of Conversion or Continuation shall be irrevocable. Section 2.12 Fees. (n) Unused Commitment Fees. Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Credit Lender a commitment fee on the actual daily amount during any calendar quarter by which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender in effect at such time exceeds such Lender’s Ratable Portion of the sum of (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Loans plus (ii) the aggregate outstanding amount of the Letter of Credit Obligations (the “Unused Commitment Fee”) from the Closing Date until the Revolving Credit Termination Date at the Applicable Unused Commitment Fee Rate, payable quarterly in arrears (x) on the last Business Day of each of March, June, September and December, commencing on the first such Business Day following the Closing Date and (y) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date. (o) Letter of Credit Fees. Borrower agrees to pay the following amounts with respect to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuer for the account of Borrower: (A) to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer, an issuance fee equal to 0.125% per annum of the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under such Letter of Credit during any calendar quarter, payable quarterly in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of each of March, June, September and December, commencing on the first such Business Day following the


 
105 issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date; (B) to the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, with respect to each Letter of Credit, a fee accruing at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Revolving Loans that are Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans on the maximum amount available from time to time to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, payable quarterly in arrears (A) on the last Business Day of each of March, June, September and December, commencing on the first such Business Day following the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (B) on the Revolving Credit Termination Date; provided that during the continuance of an Event of Default under Sections 9.1(a), (b) or (f), such fee shall be increased by 2.0% per annum and shall be payable on demand; and (C) to the Issuer of any Letter of Credit, with respect to the Issuance, amendment or transfer of each Letter of Credit issued by such Issuer and each drawing made thereunder, documentary and processing charges in accordance with such Issuer’s standard schedule for such charges in effect at the time of Issuance, amendment, transfer or drawing, as the case may be. (p) Defaulting Lender Fees. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, during such period as a Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender will not be entitled to any fees accruing during such period pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above (without prejudice to the rights of the Lenders other than Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees); provided that (i) to the extent that a Ratable Portion of the Letter of Credit Obligations of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders pursuant to Section 2.20(a), such fees that would have accrued pursuant to clause (b) for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, pro rata in accordance with their respective Commitments, and (ii) to the extent any portion of such Letter of Credit Obligations cannot be so reallocated and Borrower has not provided Cash Collateral, such fees pursuant to clause (b) will instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuer as their interests appear (and the pro rata payment provisions of Section 2.13 will automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section 2.12(c)). (q) Additional Fees. Borrower has agreed to pay to the Administrative Agent additional fees, the amount and dates of payment of which are embodied in the Fee Letter. Section 2.13 Payments and Computations. (n) Borrower shall make each payment hereunder (including fees and expenses) not later than 2:00 P.M. (New York time) on the day when due with respect to


 
106 any Loan, to the Administrative Agent at its address referred to in Section 11.9 in immediately available funds without set-off or counterclaim. The Administrative Agent shall promptly thereafter cause to be distributed immediately available funds relating to the payment of principal, interest or fees to the Lenders, in accordance with the application of payments set forth in clauses (e) or (f) below, as applicable, for the account of their respective Lending Offices; provided that amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.14(b)(ii), (d) or (e) shall be paid only to the affected Lender or Lenders. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after 2:00 P.M. (New York time) shall be deemed to be received on the next Business Day. (o) All computations of interest for Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans, Term SOFR Rate Loans and Base Rate Loans (other than any Base Rate Loans that bear interest based on clause (b) of the definition of Base Rate) shall be made on the basis of a year of 360 days and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All other computations of fees and interest shall be made on the basis of a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and actual days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder shall be prima facie evidence thereof. (p) Whenever any payment hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be; provided that if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate Loan to be made in the next calendar month, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. All repayments of any Loans of a Borrower shall, unless otherwise directed by Borrower, be applied as follows: first, to repay such Loans outstanding as Base Rate Loans and then, to repay such Loans outstanding as Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, with those Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans having earlier expiring Interest Payment Dates being repaid prior to those having later Interest Payment Dates. (q) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from Borrower to the Lenders prior to the date on which any payment is due hereunder that Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each applicable Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that Borrower shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each applicable Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate, for the first Business Day, and, thereafter, at the rate applicable to Base Rate Loans, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent.


 
107 (r) Subject to the provisions of clauses (c) above and clauses (f) and (g) below (and except as otherwise provided in Sections 2.8 and 2.9), all payments and any other amounts received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of Borrower shall be applied as follows: first, to pay principal of, and interest on, any portion of the Loans the Administrative Agent may have advanced to Borrower pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement on behalf of any Lender, for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or Borrower, second, to pay all other Obligations then due and payable in the following manner: payments in respect of any Revolving Loan received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of Borrower shall be distributed to each Revolving Credit Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Ratable Portion of such Revolving Loan of Borrower; payments in respect of any Tranche of Term Loans received by the Administrative Agent from or for the benefit of Borrower shall be distributed to each Term Loan Lender in accordance with such Lender’s Ratable Portion of Term Loans of such Tranche; and all payments of fees and all other payments in respect of any other Obligation shall be allocated among such of the Lenders and Issuers as are entitled thereto and, for such payments allocated to the Lenders, in proportion to their respective Ratable Portions of the applicable Facility; and third, as Borrower so designates. (s) Borrower hereby irrevocably waives the right to direct the application of any and all payments in respect of the Secured Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default and agrees that, if an Event of Default exists, the Administrative Agent may, and, upon either (A) the written direction of the Requisite Lenders or (B) the acceleration of the Obligations pursuant to Section 9.2, shall apply all payments in respect of any Secured Obligations and all funds on deposit in any Cash Collateral Account and all other proceeds of Collateral in the following order: (A) First, to pay interest on and then principal of any portion of the Revolving Loans that the Administrative Agent may have advanced on behalf of any Lender for which the Administrative Agent has not then been reimbursed by such Lender or Borrower; (B) Second, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements or indemnities then due to the Administrative Agent; (C) Third, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any expense reimbursements (excluding Reimbursement Obligations) or indemnities then due to the Lenders and the Issuers; (D) Fourth, to pay Secured Obligations in respect of any fees then due to the Administrative Agent and the Issuers;


 
108 (E) Fifth, to pay interest then due and payable in respect of the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations and fees then due to the Lenders; (F) Sixth, to pay or prepay principal amounts on the Loans and Reimbursement Obligations, to provide Cash Collateral for outstanding Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts in the manner described in Section 9.4 and to pay or prepay amounts owing on Secured Obligations in respect of Hedging Contracts and Cash Management/Letter of Credit Obligations, ratably to the aggregate principal amount of all such Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and Letter of Credit Undrawn Amounts and Secured Obligations owing with respect to Hedging Contracts and Cash Management/Letter of Credit Obligations; and (G) Seventh, to the ratable payment of all other Secured Obligations; provided that if sufficient funds are not available to fund all payments to be made in respect of any Secured Obligation described in any of clauses first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh above, the available funds being applied with respect to any such Secured Obligation (unless otherwise specified in such clause) shall be allocated to the payment of the Secured Obligations specified in such clause ratably, based on the proportion of the Administrative Agent’s, each Lender’s or Issuer’s and each other Secured Party’s interest in the aggregate outstanding Secured Obligations described in such clauses. The order of priority set forth in clauses first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh above may at any time and from time to time be changed by the agreement of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby without necessity of notice to or consent of or approval by Borrower, any other Secured Party that is not a Lender or Issuer or by any other Person that is not a Lender or Issuer. The order of priority set forth in clauses first, second, third and fourth above may be changed only with the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuer in addition to each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby. (t) At the option of the Administrative Agent and upon notice to Borrower, principal on the Reimbursement Obligations, interest, fees, expenses and other sums due and payable in respect of the Loans may be paid from the proceeds of Revolving Loans made on behalf of Borrower. Borrower hereby authorizes the Revolving Credit Lenders to make Revolving Loans hereunder from time to time in the Revolving Credit Lender’s discretion, that are in the amounts of any and all interest, fees, expenses and other sums payable in respect of the Revolving Loans, and further authorizes the Administrative Agent to give the Revolving Credit Lenders notice of any Borrowing with respect to such Revolving Loans and to distribute the proceeds of such Revolving Loans to pay such amounts. Borrower agrees that all such Revolving Loans so made on its behalf shall be deemed to have been requested by it (irrespective of the satisfaction of the conditions in Section 3.2, which conditions the applicable Revolving


 
109 Credit Lenders irrevocably waive) and directs that all proceeds thereof shall be used to pay such amounts. (u) If any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments in respect of the Obligations and any proceeds of Collateral due to it from or for the benefit of Borrower to the Non-Defaulting Lenders for application to, and reduction of, their Ratable Portion of all Obligations until such Non-Defaulting Lenders have been repaid in full. Such Defaulting Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to distribute such payments to the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with Section 2.9(d) and this Section 2.13. This Section 2.13(h) shall apply and be effective regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is the continuing and notwithstanding (i) any other provision of this Agreement to the contrary or (ii) any instruction of Borrower as to its desired application of payments. Section 2.14 Special Provisions Governing Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans and Term SOFR Rate Loans. (n) Determination of Interest Rate. The (i) Term SOFR Rate for each Interest Period for Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Term SOFR Rate” and (ii) Daily Simple SOFR Rate for Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans shall be determined by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the procedures set forth in the definition of “Daily Simple SOFR Rate” . The Administrative Agent’s determination shall be presumed to be prima facie evidence thereof. (o) Interest Rate Unascertainable, Inadequate or Unfair. If (i) the Administrative Agent determines that adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining (i) the Term SOFR Rate with respect to any Term SOFR Rate Loan for such Interest Period (the “Affected Term SOFR Rate”), (ii) the Daily Simple SOFR Rate with respect to any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan (the “Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate”), or (ii) the Requisite Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that the Daily Simple SOFR Rate, or Term SOFR Rate for any Interest Period, will not adequately reflect the cost to the Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon: each (i) Term SOFR Rate Loan the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Term SOFR Rate requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as Base Rate Loans and (ii) Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate shall be made as Base Rate Loans; and the obligations of the Lenders to make Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans or to convert Base Rate Loans into Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify Borrower that the Requisite Lenders have determined that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.


 
110 (p) In connection with the use, implementation or administration of Daily Simple SOFR Rate, Term SOFR Rate or SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time with the consent of the Borrower and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments adopting or implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. (q) Increased Costs. If either (i) the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the Closing Date (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve requirements included in determining the Daily Simple SOFR Rate or Term SOFR Rate); provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to have been enacted, adopted or issued, as the case may be, after the Closing Date, regardless of the date actually enacted, adopted or issued, or (ii) the compliance by such Lender with any guideline, request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (whether or not having the force of law) issued after the Closing Date, shall have the effect of increasing the cost to such Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans (other than, in respect of payments to be made to any Lender or the Administrative Agent, any such increased costs resulting from taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities with respect thereto, including any net income, capital, franchise, doing business and branch profits Taxes and Taxes arising under FATCA, in each case, as to which Section 2.16 shall govern), then Borrower shall from time to time, upon demand by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such increased cost; provided that notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Section 2.14(c) will only be available to Lenders applying such provisions in a manner consistent with their treatment of similarly situated borrowers. A certificate as to the amount of such increased cost, submitted to Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender, shall be prima facie evidence thereof. Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this clause (c) for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower of the events giving rise to such increased costs and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the events giving rise to such increased costs are retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.


 
111 (r) Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender determines that the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful, or any central bank or other Governmental Authority shall assert that it is unlawful, for any Lender to make Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans or to continue to fund or maintain Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to Borrower through the Administrative Agent, the obligation of such Lender to make or to continue Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans and to convert Base Rate Loans into Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans shall be suspended, and each such Lender shall make a Base Rate Loan (determined without reference to the Daily Simple SOFR Rate or Term SOFR Rate component thereof) as part of any requested Borrowing of Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, and if the affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans are then outstanding, Borrower shall immediately convert each such Loan into a Base Rate Loan (determined without reference to the Daily Simple SOFR Rate or Term SOFR Rate component thereof); and if at any time after a Lender gives notice under this Section 2.14(d), such Lender determines that it may lawfully make Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, such Lender shall promptly give notice of that determination to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit the notice to each other Lender. Borrower’s right to request, and such Lender’s obligation, if any, to make Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans shall thereupon be restored. (s) Breakage Costs. In addition to all amounts required to be paid by Borrower pursuant to Section 2.10, Borrower shall compensate each Lender, upon demand, for all losses, expenses and liabilities (including any loss or expense incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such Lender’s Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans to Borrower but excluding any loss of the Applicable Margin on the relevant Loans) that such Lender may sustain (other than resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Lender, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment or order) (i) if for any reason a proposed Borrowing, conversion into Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or conversion into or continuation of Term SOFR Rate Loans does not occur on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by Borrower or in a telephonic request by it for borrowing or conversion or continuation or a successive Interest Period does not commence after notice therefor is given pursuant to Section 2.11, (ii) if for any reason any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate Loan is prepaid (including mandatorily pursuant to Section 2.9) on a date that is not the Interest Payment Date therefor, (iii) as a consequence of a required conversion of a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate Loan to a Base Rate Loan as a result of any of the events indicated in clause (d) above or (iv) as a consequence of any failure by Borrower to repay Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans when required by the terms hereof. The Lender making demand for such compensation shall deliver to


 
112 Borrower concurrently with such demand a written statement as to such losses, expenses and liabilities, and this statement shall be prima facie evidence thereof. Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this clause (e) for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower of the events giving rise to such increased costs and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the events giving rise to such increased costs are retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Section 2.15 Capital Adequacy. If at any time any Lender determines that (a) the introduction of, or any change in or in the interpretation of, any law, treaty or governmental rule, regulation or order after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy or liquidity, (b) compliance with any such law, treaty, rule, regulation or order issued after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or (c) compliance with any guideline or request or directive from any central bank or other Governmental Authority (having the force of law) issued after the Closing Date regarding capital adequacy or liquidity shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s (or any corporation controlling such Lender’s) capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change, compliance or interpretation, then, upon demand from time to time by such Lender (with a copy of such demand to the Administrative Agent), Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, additional amounts sufficient to compensate such Lender for such reduction. A certificate as to such amounts submitted to Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such Lender shall be prima facie evidence thereof; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines and directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed to have been enacted, adopted or issued, as the case may be, after the Closing Date, regardless of the date actually enacted, adopted or issued. Borrower shall not be required to compensate any Lender pursuant to this Section 2.15 for any increased costs incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and Borrower of the events giving rise to such increased costs and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided that if the events giving rise to such increased costs are retroactive, then the 180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. Section 2.16 Taxes. (n) Except as provided below in this Section 2.16 or as required by law (which for purposes of this Section 2.16 includes FATCA), any and all payments by any


 
113 Loan Party hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for, or on account of, any Indemnified Taxes. If any Loan Party or the Administrative Agent shall be required by law to withhold or deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer, (i) the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as may be necessary so that after making all required deductions or withholdings on account of Indemnified Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16(a)) the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer, as the case may be, receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings of Indemnified Taxes been made, (ii) the applicable Loan Party or Administrative Agent, as applicable shall make such deductions or withholdings, and (iii) the applicable Loan Party or Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall pay the full amount of Indemnified Taxes deducted to the relevant taxation authority or other authority in accordance with applicable law. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.16, (x) each Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, shall be entitled to deduct and withhold, (y) no Loan Party shall be required to indemnify and (z) any amounts payable by any Loan Party to, or for the account of, the Administrative Agent, any Issuer or any Lender shall not be increased, in each case for or with respect to any Indemnified Taxes (A) to the extent such Taxes would not have been imposed if the Administrative Agent, such Issuer or such Lender had complied with the requirements of clause (f) and clause (g) or clause (i) of this Section 2.16, (B) imposed in connection with the payment of any fees paid under this Agreement unless such Indemnified Taxes are imposed as a result of a Change in Tax Law, or (C) imposed by the United States or any state or political subdivision thereof, unless such Indemnified Taxes are imposed as a result of a Change in Tax Law. (o) Each Loan Party agrees to pay all Other Taxes. (p) Without duplication of its obligation to pay increased amounts on account of Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(a) and (b), (i) if any Loan Party fails to withhold and deduct any Indemnified Taxes from or in respect of any sums payable hereunder or under any other Loan Document or fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes withheld by such Loan Party to the applicable taxing authority and such Indemnified Taxes are paid by the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuer or (ii) if any Other Taxes are paid by the Administrative Agent, a Lender or an Issuer, then the applicable Loan Party shall pay to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer, as applicable, an amount so that after making all required deductions or withholdings on account of Indemnified Taxes (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16(c)) the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer, as applicable, shall receive an amount equal to such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, as applicable, paid by the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer, as applicable.


 
114 (q) Within 30 days after the date of any payment made by a Loan Party to a Governmental Authority of Taxes or Other Taxes pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) above or to the indemnity set forth in clause (c) above, the relevant Loan Party shall furnish to the Administrative Agent, at its address referred to in Section 11.9, the original or a certified copy of a receipt evidencing payment thereof or other evidence of payment thereof reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. (r) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Borrower, each Lender, each Issuer and the Administrative Agent hereunder, the agreements and obligations of the Loan Parties, each Lender, each Issuer and the Administrative Agent contained in this Section 2.16 and Section 2.17 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment in full of the Secured Obligations. (s) The Administrative Agent, each Issuer and each Lender, in each case that is a United States person, shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Closing Date or, in the case of an assignee or transferee of an interest under this Agreement pursuant to Section 11.2 or otherwise, on or prior to the date of such assignment or transfer, two accurate and complete original signed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or successor form), in each case certifying that the Administrative Agent, such Issuer or such Lender, as applicable, is a United States person and to the Administrative Agent’s, such Issuer’s or such Lender’s entitlement as of such date to a complete exemption from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax with respect to payments to be made under any Loan Document. The Administrative Agent, each Issuer and each Lender, in each case that is not a United States person shall: (A) (A) on or before the date of any payment by Borrower under any Loan Document to, or for the account of, such Lender or such Issuer, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent (1) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W- 8BEN-E (certifying that it is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country) or Forms W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case certifying that it is entitled to receive all payments under any Loan Document without deduction or withholding of any U.S. federal income taxes, and (2) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document; (B) deliver to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent two further accurate and complete original signed forms or certifications provided in clause (A) of this Section 2.16(f)(i) on or before the date that any such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it to the Borrower; (C) obtain such extensions of time for filing and completing such forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the


 
115 Administrative Agent and (D) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes, provided that, in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (D), such Lender or such Issuer shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by any Loan Party) which would be imposed on such Lender or such Issuer of complying with such request; or (B) if the Administrative Agent, such Issuer or such Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and is relying on the so-called “portfolio interest exemption,” (A) represent to Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not (1) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code; (B) on or before the date of any payment by Borrower under any Loan Document to, or for the account of, such Lender or such Issuer, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (1) two certificates substantially in the form of Exhibit K hereto (any such certificate, a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (2) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN-E, or successor applicable form, certifying to such Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such form to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under any Loan Document and (3) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document (and shall also deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further accurate and complete original signed forms or certificates on or before the date it expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form or certificate and, if necessary, obtain any extensions of time reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms or certificates); and (C) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under any Loan Document, provided that, in determining the reasonableness of a


 
116 request under this clause (C), such Lender or such Issuer shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by Borrower) which would be imposed on such Lender or such Issuer of complying with such request; or (C) if any Lender, any Issuer or the Administrative Agent is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, on or before the date of any payment by Borrower under any Loan Document to, or for the account of, such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent, deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY, or successor applicable form, and, if any beneficiary or member of such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent is claiming the so- called “portfolio interest exemption”, (x) represent to Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent is not (I) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (II) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (III) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (y) also deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates certifying to such Lender’s, such Issuer’s or the Administrative Agent’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under any Loan Document; and (1) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent that is not claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, also deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent (I) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN-E (certifying that such beneficiary or member is a resident of the applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States and that country), Forms W-8ECI or Forms W-9, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in each case so that each such beneficiary or member is entitled to receive all payments under any Loan Document without deduction or withholding of any U.S. federal income taxes and (II) such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that each such beneficiary or member is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to all payments under any Loan Document, and (2) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Lender or such Issuer that is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, (I) represent to Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such beneficiary or member is not (1) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (II) also deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two U.S. Tax Compliance Certificates from each beneficiary or member and two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN-E, or successor applicable form, certifying to such beneficiary’s or member’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption from U.S. withholding tax


 
117 under the provisions of Section 871(h) or Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under any Loan Document, and (III) also deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under any Loan Document; deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further accurate and complete original signed forms, certificates or certifications referred to above on or before the date any such form, certificate or certification expires or becomes obsolete, or any beneficiary or member changes, and after the occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form, certificate or certification and obtain such extensions of time reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such forms, certificates or certifications; and deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable request by Borrower, to Borrower and the Administrative Agent such other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal entitlement of such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent (or beneficiary or member) to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under any Loan Document, provided that in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (C) such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by Borrower) which would be imposed on such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or beneficiary or member) of complying with such request; unless, in any such case (other than with respect to United States backup withholding tax), there has been a Change in Law which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent (or such beneficiary or member) from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and such Lender, such Issuer or the Administrative Agent so advises Borrower and the Administrative Agent. (t) Each Person that shall become a Lender or a Participant pursuant to Section 11.2 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all of the forms, certifications and statements pursuant to this Section 2.16, provided that in the case of a Participant the obligations of such Participant pursuant to clause (f) or (g) of this Section 2.16 shall be determined as if such Participant were a Lender except that such Participant shall furnish all such required forms, certifications and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a payment made to a Lender or Issuer hereunder may be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender or Issuer were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender or Issuer shall deliver to Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its


 
118 obligations (including any applicable reporting requirements) under FATCA and to determine whether 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 the immediately preceding sentence, the term “FATCA” shall include any amendments to FATCA after the date hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to withhold any Taxes imposed under FATCA. (u) If the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by a Loan Party or Taxes with respect to which the Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.14(c), or this Section 2.16, it shall pay over such refund to such Loan Party (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by such Loan Party under Section 2.14(c) or this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer incurred in connection therewith and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Loan Party, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer in the event the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Loan Party or any other Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in no event will the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuer be required to pay any amount to a Loan Party the payment of which would place it in a less favorable net after-tax position than the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer, as the case may be, would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Taxes had never been paid. (v) Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agrees that, upon the occurrence of any condition or event giving rise to any payment pursuant to Section 2.14(b), 2.14(c), 2.14(d), 2.15 or 2.16 with respect to such Lender or the Administrative Agent, it will promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and will take such steps as may be reasonably available to it to mitigate the effects of such condition or event, which shall include efforts to designate another Lending Office for any Loan affected by such event or rebook such Loans through another branch or an Affiliate of such Lender with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event; provided that such steps are taken on terms that, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, would be materially disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur additional costs (unless the Borrower agrees to reimburse such Lender or Administrative Agent for the reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof). Section 2.17 Mitigation and Substitution of Lenders.


 
119 (n) If (x) (i) any Lender makes a claim under Section 2.14(b)(ii) or 2.15, (ii) it becomes illegal for any Lender to continue to fund or make any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate Loan and such Lender notifies Borrower pursuant to Section 2.14(d), (iii) any Loan Party is required to make any payment pursuant to Section 2.14(c) or Section 2.16 that is attributable to a particular Lender or (iv) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender and (y) in the case of clause (x)(i) above, as a consequence of increased costs in respect of which such claim is made, the effective rate of interest payable to such Lender under this Agreement with respect to its Loans materially exceeds the effective average annual rate of interest payable to the Requisite Lenders under this Agreement (any such Lender, an “Affected Lender”), Borrower may substitute another financial institution or other entity for such Affected Lender hereunder upon reasonable prior written notice by Borrower to the Administrative Agent and the Affected Lender that Borrower intends to make such substitution, which substitute financial institution or other entity must be an Eligible Assignee and, if not a Lender, reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. If the proposed substitute financial institution or other entity is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the written notice was properly issued under this Section 2.17, the Affected Lender shall sell and the substitute financial institution or other entity shall purchase, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption for an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Loans and any accrued and unpaid interest, fees or other amounts due and owing at such time (and, upon receipt by the Affected Lender of all such amounts, shall be deemed to have so sold), all rights and claims of such Affected Lender under the Loan Documents and the substitute financial institution or other entity shall assume and the Affected Lender shall be relieved of its Commitments and all other prior unperformed obligations of the Affected Lender under the Loan Documents (other than in respect of any damages (other than exemplary or punitive damages, to the extent permitted by applicable law) in respect of any such unperformed obligations) and the provisions of Section 11.2 applicable to assignees thereunder shall apply to any assignee under this Section 2.17. In furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and Borrower an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver on behalf of such Lender, as assignor, any Assignment and Assumption necessary to effectuate any such assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.17(a); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such power of attorney unless such Lender has failed to enter into any such Assignment and Assumption within 3 days following any written request from Borrower or the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of any of the circumstances set forth in clause (x) above. (o) Upon the request and at the expense of a Loan Party, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuer to which such Loan Party is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Section 2.14(c), Section 2.15 or Section 2.16, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford such Loan Party the opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with such Loan Party in contesting, the imposition of any Indemnified Tax or Other Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) the Administrative Agent, such Lender or


 
120 such Issuer shall not be required to afford such Loan Party the opportunity to so contest unless such Loan Party shall have confirmed in writing to the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer its obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) such Loan Party shall reimburse the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such Issuer for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with such Loan Party in contesting the imposition of such Indemnified Tax or Other Tax; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Issuer nor the Administrative Agent shall be required to afford such Loan Party the opportunity to contest, or to cooperate with such Loan Party in contesting, the imposition of any such increased cost or Taxes, if such Lender or Issuer or the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion in good faith determines that to do so would have an adverse effect on it. (p) If a Lender changes its Lending Office (other than pursuant to Section 2.16(i)) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would be to cause any Loan Party to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Section 2.14(c), Section 2.15 or Section 2.16, such Loan Party shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount. Section 2.18 [Reserved]. Section 2.19 Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two Business Days following the written request of any Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount. (n) Grant of Security Interest. Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuers, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuers as herein provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the Minimum Collateral Amount, Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). (o) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this Section 2.19 or Section 2.20 in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Letter of Credit Obligations (including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such


 
121 obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. (p) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuer’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.19 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender in accordance with Section 2.20(d)), or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuer that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.20 the Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuer may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations; provided, further, that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by Borrower, such Cash Collateral shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents. Section 2.20 Defaulting Lender. (n) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (A) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definitions of Requisite Lenders and Requisite Revolving Credit Lenders. (B) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article IX or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 11.8 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuer hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.19; fourth, as Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and Borrower, to be held in a Deposit Account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding


 
122 obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.19; sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Issuers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Issuers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender's breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or Reimbursement Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and Reimbursement Obligations owed to, all Non- Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or Reimbursement Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letter of Credit Obligations are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.20(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. (C) Certain Fees. No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any Unused Commitment Fee for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender). Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive fees accruing pursuant to Section 2.12(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Applicable Percentage of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.19. With respect to any fees accruing pursuant to Section 2.12(b) not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or (B) above, Borrower shall (x) pay to


 
123 each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuer the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuer’s Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. (iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letter of Credit Obligations shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 11.25, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation. (v) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law Cash Collateralize the Issuers’ Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.19. (o) [Reserved]. (p) Termination of Defaulting Lender Commitments. Borrower may terminate the unused amount of the Commitment of a Defaulting Lender upon not less than 10 Business Days’ prior notice to the Administrative Agent (which will promptly notify the Lenders thereof), and in such event the provisions of Section 2.13 will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuers or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. (q) Defaulting Lender Cure. If Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuers agree in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral) (i) such Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility (without giving effect to Section 2.20(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with


 
124 respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender and (ii) the Cash Collateral requirements set forth in Section 2.19 will terminate and the applicable Issuer will cause any Cash Collateral posted with respect to their respective Letter of Credit Obligations, to be returned to Borrower subject to any terms relating to such Cash Collateral; provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. (r) Replacement and Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right, at its sole expense and effort (i) to seek one or more Persons reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to each become a substitute Revolving Credit Lender and assume all or part of the Commitment of any Defaulting Lender and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and any such substitute Revolving Credit Lender shall execute and deliver, and such Defaulting Lender shall thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered, an appropriately completed Assignment and Assumption to effect such substitution or (ii) upon written notice to the Administrative Agent, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a), 9.1(b), or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing to prepay the Loans and, at the Borrower’s option, terminate the Commitments of such Defaulting Lender, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. Section 2.21 Incremental Facilities. (n) General. Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, (i) to request new term loan commitments under one or more new term loan credit facilities to be included in this Agreement on a pari passu basis in right of payment and security with the Initial Term Loans or to increase the Existing Term Loans by requesting new term loan commitments to be added to an existing Tranche of Term Loans (each, an “Incremental Term Facility”) and (ii) to increase the Existing Revolving Loans by requesting new revolving credit commitments to be added to the Existing Revolving Loans (“Supplemental Revolving Credit Commitments”, and together with any Incremental Term Facility, the “Incremental Facilities”) in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed, the Maximum Incremental Facilities Amount at the time of incurrence or establishment of any such Increment Facility; provided that (I) in the case of any Incremental Facility, such increase must be in a minimum principal amount of at least $5,000,000 and will only become effective if (A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from such Incremental Facilities, and (B) the maturity date and the weighted average life to maturity of any Incremental Term Facility shall be no earlier than or shorter than, as the case may be, the Latest Maturity Date or the weighted average life to maturity of the Tranche of Term Loans having the Latest Maturity Date, as applicable (other than an earlier maturity date and/or shorter weighted average life to maturity (1) for customary bridge financings, which, subject to customary conditions, would either be automatically converted into or required to be exchanged for permanent financing which does not provide for an earlier maturity date or


 
125 a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the Latest Maturity Date or the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Tranche of Term Loans having the Latest Maturity Date, as applicable or (2) pursuant to an escrow or similar arrangement with respect to the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans); (II) the interest rate margins and (subject to clause (I)(B) above) amortization schedule applicable to the loans made pursuant to the Incremental Facilities shall be determined by the Borrower and the applicable incremental lenders; (III) the terms and documentation for any Supplemental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be on the same terms as the Initial Revolving Credit Facility as in effect prior to giving effect to any Incremental Amendment; and (IV) the terms and documentation in respect of any Incremental Facility (other than any Supplemental Revolving Credit Commitment), to the extent not consistent with this Agreement as in effect prior to giving effect to any amendment pursuant to clause (b) below, shall otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to Borrower, provided that to the extent such terms and documentation (other than in respect of pricing, call protection and other financial terms) are not consistent with the terms and documentation governing the Initial Facility (except to the extent permitted by clause (I)(B) or (II) above), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Lender that provides any Incremental Term Facility pursuant to this Section 2.21 is an Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Facility shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (including Incremental Term Loans) outstanding under this Agreement and the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Commitments held by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds after giving effect to such Supplemental Revolving Credit Commitments shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Credit Commitments in effect under this Agreement. Each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund that provides Incremental Facilities pursuant to this Section 2.21 agrees to each of the provisions set forth in Section 11.2(l)(iv) with respect to itself and its Incremental Facilities. (o) Procedures. Borrower shall have the right, but not any obligation, to offer an Incremental Facility to any existing Lender (in the case of any Supplemental Revolving Credit Commitments, any Affiliated Lender) or any other bank or financial institution that is an Eligible Assignee (any such bank or other financial institution, an “Additional Lender”); provided that any Lender or Additional Lender approached to provide all or a portion of any Incremental Facility may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide all or a portion of such Incremental Facility; provided, further, that (x) if such Additional Lender is not already a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate of a Lender hereunder or an Approved Fund, the consent of the Administrative Agent and (in the case of Supplemental Revolving Credit Commitments) the consent of any Issuer (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required and (y) that such Lender or Additional Lender executes a Joinder Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit V (a “Joinder Agreement”) pursuant to which such Additional Lender agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement as a Lender. Borrower may


 
126 agree to accept a lesser amount of any Incremental Facility than originally requested. On the effective date provided for in any agreement providing for an Incremental Facility (each, an “Incremental Facility Effective Date”), the Incremental Facility will be made available to Borrower in the amount committed to by each Lender or Additional Lender as of the Incremental Facility Effective Date in accordance with clause (c) below. The Borrower shall have the right to allocate such commitments on whatever basis Borrower determines is appropriate. Loans and commitments made pursuant to Incremental Facilities (“Incremental Term Loans” and “Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments”, as applicable) shall become Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Incremental Facility, if any, each Additional Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent (an “Incremental Amendment”). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1, any such Incremental Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents (i) as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrower and Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.21 and/or (ii) so long as such amendments are not adverse to the Lenders, such other changes as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to maintain the fungibility of any such Incremental Term Loans with any tranche of then outstanding Term Loans. (p) Funding of Incremental Facilities. On each Incremental Facility Effective Date, each Lender and Additional Lender providing a portion of any Incremental Term Facility shall transfer immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Commitment (less any applicable upfront fees or original issue discount). Section 2.22 Extension of Term Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments. (n) Borrower may at any time and from time to time request that all or a portion of the (i) Term Loans of one or more Tranches (including any Extended Term Loans) existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Term Tranche”, and the Term Loans of such Tranche, the “Existing Term Loans”) and (ii) Revolving Credit Commitments of one or more Tranches (including any Extended Revolving Loans) existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Revolving Tranche” and together with the Existing Term Tranches, each an “Existing Tranche”, and the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Existing Revolving Tranche, the “Existing Revolving Loans”, and together with the Existing Term Loans, the “Existing Loans”), in each case, be converted to extend the scheduled maturity date(s) of any payment of principal or scheduled termination date(s), as applicable, with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of any Existing Tranche (any such Existing Tranche which has been so extended, an “Extended Term Tranche” or “Extended Revolving Tranche”, as applicable, and each an “Extended Tranche”, and the Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, of such Extended Tranches, the “Extended Term Loans” or “Extended


 
127 Revolving Commitments”, as applicable, and collectively, the “Extended Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.22; provided that (i) any such request shall be made by Borrower to all Lenders with Term Loans or Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, with a like maturity date (whether under one or more Tranches) on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the applicable Term Loans or on the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments) and (ii) any applicable Minimum Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by Borrower. In order to establish any Extended Tranche, Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Tranche to be established, which terms shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the Existing Tranche from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Tranche”), except (x) all or any of the final maturity dates of such Extended Tranches may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity dates of the Specified Existing Tranche, (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Tranche may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Tranche and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Tranche in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and (z) in the case of an Extended Term Tranche, so long as the weighted average life to maturity of such Extended Term Tranche would be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Specified Existing Tranche, amortization rates with respect to the Extended Term Tranche may be higher or lower than the amortization rates for the Specified Existing Tranche, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.22 or otherwise, assignments and participations of Extended Tranches shall be governed by the same or, at Borrower’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions than the assignment and participation provisions applicable to Initial Term Loans set forth in Section 11.2. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans converted into an Extended Tranche pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Tranche shall constitute a separate Tranche of Loans from the Specified Existing Tranches and from any other Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Tranches so established on such date). (o) Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least ten Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche or Existing Tranches are requested to respond. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of its Specified Existing Tranche converted into an Extended Tranche shall notify the Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Extension Request of the amount of its Specified Existing Tranche that it has elected to convert into an Extended Tranche. In the event that the aggregate amount of the Specified Existing Tranche subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Tranches requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the Specified Existing Tranches subject to Extension Elections shall be


 
128 converted to Extended Tranches on a pro rata basis based on the amount of Specified Existing Tranches included in each such Extension Election. In connection with any extension of Loans pursuant to this Section 2.22 (each, an “Extension”), Borrower shall agree to such procedures regarding timing, rounding and other administrative adjustments to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit facilities hereunder after such Extension, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.22. The Borrower may amend, revoke or replace an Extension Request pursuant to procedures reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at any time prior to the date (the “Extension Request Deadline”) on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Term Tranche or Existing Revolving Tranche are requested to respond to the Extension Request. Any Lender may revoke an Extension Election at any time prior to 5:00 P.M. on the date that is two Business Days prior to the Extension Request Deadline, at which point the Extension Election becomes irrevocable (unless otherwise agreed by the Borrower). The revocation of an Extension Election prior to the Extension Request Deadline shall not prejudice any Lender’s right to submit a new Extension Election prior to the Extension Request Deadline. (p) Extended Tranches shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which may include amendments to (i) provisions related to maturity, interest margins, amortization or fees referenced in clauses (x) through (z) of Section 2.22(a), and which, in each case, except to the extent expressly contemplated by the last sentence of this Section 2.22(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 11.1, shall not require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended Tranches established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and the Extending Lenders. No Extension Amendment shall provide for any Extended Term Tranche in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $50,000,000 or any Extended Revolving Tranche in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $25,000,000 (in each case, except to the extent a lower amount is agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without limiting the generality or applicability of Section 11.1 to any Section 2.22 Additional Amendments, any Extension Amendment may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional amendment, a “Section 2.22 Additional Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that such Section 2.22 Additional Amendments do not become effective prior to the time that such Section 2.22 Additional Amendments have been consented to (including, without limitation, pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Tranches provided for in any Extension Amendment) by such of the Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Section 2.22 Additional Amendments to become effective in accordance with Section 11.1; provided, further, that no Extension Amendment may provide for (i) any Extended Tranche to be secured by any Collateral or other assets that does not also secure the Existing Tranches or be guaranteed by any person other than the Guarantors and (ii) so long as any Existing Term Tranches are outstanding, any mandatory or voluntary


 
129 prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Existing Term Tranches (other than Existing Term Tranches secured on a junior basis by the Collateral or ranking junior in right of payment, which shall be subject to junior prepayment provisions) on a pro rata basis (or otherwise provide for more favorable prepayment treatment for Existing Term Tranches than such Extended Term Tranches as contemplated by the proviso in the third to last sentence of Section 2.8(b) and the proviso in Section 2.9(c)); provided further that the Extended Term Loans or Extended Revolving Commitments of no more than two Extended Tranches may mature and/or terminate in any period of twelve months. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.1, any such Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.22; provided that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the terms of any Section 2.22 Additional Amendment. (q) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any Existing Tranche is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Specified Existing Tranche of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified Existing Tranche shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of Extended Tranche so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Tranches shall be established as a separate Tranche from the Specified Existing Tranche and from any other Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Tranches so established on such date). (r) If, in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender declines to consent to the applicable extension on the terms and by the deadline set forth in the applicable Extension Request (each such other Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non- Extending Lender, (i) replace such Non-Extending Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 11.2 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Extended Loans on the terms set forth in such Extension Amendment; provided, further, that all obligations of Borrower owing to the Non- Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower) to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Assumption or (ii) if no Event of Default exists under Sections 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f), upon notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay the Existing Loans and terminate the Existing Revolving Commitments in whole or in part, subject to Section 2.14(b), without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement under this Section 2.22, if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption and/or


 
130 any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (A) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation and (B) the date as of which all obligations of Borrower owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation as of such date, the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register and Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Extending Lender. (s) Following any Extension Date, with the written consent of Borrower, any Non-Extending Lender may elect to have all or a portion of its Existing Loans deemed to be an Extended Loan under the applicable Extended Tranche on any date (each date a “Designation Date”) prior to the maturity date of such Extended Tranche; provided that such Lender shall have provided written notice to Borrower and the Administrative Agent at least ten Business Days prior to such Designation Date (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion); provided further that no greater amount shall be paid by or on behalf of Borrower or any of its Affiliates to any such Non-Extending Lender as consideration for its extension into such Extended Tranche than was paid to any Extended Lender as consideration for its Extension into such Extended Tranche. Following a Designation Date, the Existing Loans held by such Lender so elected to be extended will be deemed to be Extended Loans of the applicable Extended Tranche, and any Existing Loans held by such Lender not elected to be extended, if any, shall continue to be “Existing Loans” of the applicable Tranche. (t) With respect to all Extensions consummated by Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.22, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute optional or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 2.8 or 2.9 and (ii) no Extension Request is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Request in Borrower’s sole discretion and may be waived by Borrower) of Existing Loans of any or all applicable Tranches be extended. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.22 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Sections 2.8, 2.9 and 2.13) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.22. Section 2.23 Permitted Debt Exchanges.


 
131 (n) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, a “Permitted Debt Exchange Offer”) made from time to time by Borrower to all Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by Borrower, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act)) with outstanding Term Loans of a particular Tranche, as selected by Borrower, Borrower may from time to time following the Closing Date consummate one or more exchanges of Term Loans of such Tranche for indebtedness in the form of secured notes ranking junior to the Liens securing the Facilities or unsecured notes (such notes, “Permitted Debt Exchange Notes,” and each such exchange a “Permitted Debt Exchange”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied: (i) such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes have a stated maturity that is after the Latest Maturity Date and a weighted average life to maturity, at the time of issuance, of not less than the remaining weighted average life of the Tranche of Term Loans having the Latest Maturity Date, (ii) if secured by Collateral, such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall be subject to an Intercreditor Agreement or Other Intercreditor Agreement, (iii) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans exchanged shall be equal to the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Permitted Debt Exchange Notes issued in exchange for such Term Loans, (iv) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans exchanged by Borrower pursuant to any Permitted Debt Exchange shall automatically be permanently cancelled and retired by Borrower on the date of the settlement thereof (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, any applicable exchanging Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Assumption, or such other form as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective Lender assigns its interest in the Term Loans being exchanged pursuant to the Permitted Debt Exchange to Borrower for immediate cancellation), (v) if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) tendered by Lenders in respect of the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender being permitted to tender a principal amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount of the applicable Tranche actually held by it) shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans offered to be exchanged by Borrower pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then Borrower shall exchange Term Loans subject to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer tendered by such Lenders ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts so tendered, (vi) each such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made on a pro rata basis to the Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by Borrower, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act)) based on their respective aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Term Loans of the applicable Tranche, (vii) all documentation in respect of such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be consistent with the foregoing, and all written communications generally directed to the Lenders in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and made in consultation with the Administrative Agent, (viii) any applicable Minimum


 
132 Exchange Tender Condition shall be satisfied and (ix) such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than a Guarantor or be secured by any assets of the Borrower or any Subsidiary not constituting Collateral.

Any Specified Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any Person other than the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Facilities, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.24. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Specified Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuer (not to be

Section 9.3 Right to Cure.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Lender shall be required to make any Loan and no Issuer shall be required to Issue any Letter of Credit during the 10 Business Day period described in this Section 9.3(a) unless and until the Borrower shall have received the proceeds of such Specified Equity Contribution.

With respect to its Ratable Portion, JPMorgan 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. The terms “Lenders”, “Requisite Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include, without limitation, the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender or as one of the Requisite Lenders.

Each Lender and each Issuer also acknowledges that it shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender (other than an Affiliated Lender, except in its capacity as a Lender) and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and other Loan Documents.

Section 10.7 Successor Administrative Agent. (n) Subject to the appointment of a successor as set forth herein, (i) if at any time the Borrower or the Requisite Lenders determine in good faith that the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any controlling affiliate or such Person is (without taking into account any provision in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” requiring notice from the Administrative Agent or any other party) a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower or the Requisite Lenders (determined after giving effect to Section 11.1), as applicable, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and (ii) the Administrative Agent may resign at any time, in each case by giving ten days’ written notice thereof to the Administrative Agent, Lenders and/or Borrower, as applicable. If the Administrative Agent shall be removed by the Borrower or the Requisite Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above or if the Administrative Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent pursuant to clause (ii) above, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Requisite Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders.

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, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan 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 Loan Documents. After such resignation, the retiring Administrative Agent shall continue to have the benefit of this Article X as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that Borrower shall not be obligated to pay to any successor Administrative Agent any amounts in excess of, or in addition to, any fees then payable to the retiring Administrative Agent.


 
194 (o) Any resignation pursuant to this Section 10.7 by a Person acting as Administrative Agent shall, unless such Person shall notify Borrower and the Lenders otherwise, also act to relieve such Person and its Affiliates of any obligation to advance or issue new, or extend existing Letters of Credit where such advance, issuance or extension is to occur on or after the effective date of such resignation.

Section 10.8 Concerning the Collateral and the Collateral Documents.

(o) Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs, in accordance with the terms hereof, the Administrative Agent to release (or, in the case of clause (ii) below, release or subordinate) without recourse or warranty, any Lien held by the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties against any of the following: (A) all of the Collateral, upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction in full of all Loans, Reimbursement Obligations and all other Secured Obligations that the Administrative Agent has been notified in writing are then due and payable (and, in respect of contingent Letter of Credit Obligations, with respect to which Cash Collateral has been deposited or a back-up letter of credit has been issued, in either case on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuers); (B) any assets that are subject to a Lien permitted by Section 8.2(d), (e) (solely to the extent relating to clauses (d) or (h)) or (h); (C) any part of the Collateral sold or disposed of by a Loan Party (including against any assets of a Loan Party, all of the Stock or Stock Equivalents of which is being sold or disposed of) if such sale or disposition is permitted by this Agreement (or permitted pursuant to a waiver or consent of a transaction otherwise prohibited by this Agreement) other than a Disposition to a Loan Party or, if not pursuant to such sale or disposition, if such release is consented to by the Lenders required to consent thereto under Section 11.1; and (D) if any Subsidiary Guarantor is designated as an Excluded Subsidiary all of the Collateral of such Subsidiary and the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary; provided that the Fair Market Value of any Collateral of such Subsidiary and the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary shall be treated as an Investment and shall be required to be permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 8.3.

196 Collateral of such Subsidiary and the Stock and Stock Equivalents of such Subsidiary shall be treated as an Investment and shall be required to be permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 8.3 or (iii) if not pursuant to clause (i) or (ii) above, if such release is consented to by the Lenders required to consent thereto under Section 11.1 and (B) Holdings from its obligations under the applicable Guaranty following a Borrower IPO. (q) Each of the Lenders and the Issuers hereby directs the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver or file such termination and partial release statements and do such things as are necessary to release Liens pursuant to this Section 10.8 promptly upon the effectiveness of such release.

The benefit of the provisions of the Loan Documents, including this Agreement, relating to the Collateral shall extend to and be available in respect of any Secured Obligation not arising under a Loan Document or that is otherwise owed to Persons other than the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers (collectively, “Related Obligations”) solely on the condition and understanding, as among the Administrative Agent and all Secured Parties, that (a) the Related Obligations shall be entitled to the benefit of the Loan Documents and the Collateral to the extent expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to such extent the Administrative Agent shall hold, and have the right and power to act with respect to, each Guaranty and the Collateral on behalf of and as agent for the holders of the Related Obligations, but the Administrative Agent is otherwise acting solely as agent for the Lenders and the Issuers and shall have no fiduciary duty, duty of loyalty, duty of care, duty of disclosure or other obligation whatsoever to any holder of Related Obligations, (b) all matters, acts and omissions relating in any manner to any Guaranty, the Collateral, or the omission, creation, perfection, priority, abandonment or release of any Lien, shall be governed solely by the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and, except as otherwise permitted hereunder, no separate Lien, right, power or remedy shall arise or exist in favor of any Secured Party under any separate instrument or agreement or in respect of any Related Obligation, (c) each Secured Party shall be bound by all actions taken or omitted, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, by the Administrative Agent and the Requisite Lenders, each of whom shall be entitled to act at its sole discretion and exclusively in its own interest given its own Revolving Credit Commitments and its own interest in the Loans, Letter of Credit Obligations and other Obligations to it arising under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, without any duty or liability to any other Secured Party or as to any Related Obligation and without regard to whether any Related Obligation remains outstanding or is deprived of the benefit of the Collateral or becomes unsecured or is otherwise affected or put in


 
197 jeopardy thereby, (d) no holder of Related Obligations and no other Secured Party (except the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers, to the extent set forth in this Agreement) shall have any right to be notified of, or to direct, require or be heard with respect to, any action taken or omitted in respect of the Collateral or under this Agreement or the Loan Documents and (e) no holder of any Related Obligation shall exercise any right of setoff, banker’s lien or similar right except as expressly provided in Section 11.7.

Section 10.11 Withholding. To the extent required by any applicable law (which for purposes of this Section 10.11 includes FATCA), the Administrative Agent or Borrower may withhold from any payment to any Lender or Issuer an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax, and in no event shall the Administrative Agent be required to be responsible for or pay any additional amount with respect to any such withholding. Without limiting the provisions under Section 2.16, if any payment has been made to any Lender or Issuer by the Administrative Agent without the applicable withholding tax being withheld from such payment and the Administrative Agent or Borrower has paid over the applicable withholding tax to the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority, or the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent or Borrower did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender or Issuer because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender or Issuer failed to notify the Administrative Agent or Borrower of a change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective or for any other reason, such Lender or Issuer shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and Borrower fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by


 
198 the Administrative Agent or Borrower as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with all expenses (including legal expenses, allocated internal costs and out-of-pocket expenses) incurred and shall make payment in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor; provided, however, that this Section 10.11 shall not impose any obligation on any Lender or Issuer to pay to any Borrower amounts in respect of any Indemnified Taxes or penalties, interest, or expenses incurred in connection with Indemnified Taxes. A certificate as to the amount of such liability delivered to any Lender or Issuer by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and each Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and Borrower to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or such Issuer under any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative Agent or Borrower, as applicable, under this Section 10.11. The agreements in this Section 10.11 shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender or an Issuer and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all the Secured Obligations.

203 Lenders, as required, have approved any such amendment, modification or waiver (and the definition of “Requisite Lenders,” “Requisite Term Loan Lenders” and “Requisite Revolving Credit Lenders” will automatically be deemed modified accordingly for the duration of such period); provided that any such amendment, modification or waiver that would increase or extend the term of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender, extend the date fixed for the payment of principal or interest owing to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, reduce the principal amount of any obligation owing to such Defaulting Lender, reduce the amount of or the rate or amount of interest on any amount owing to such Defaulting Lender or of any fee payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder, or alter the terms of this proviso, will require the consent of such Defaulting Lender. (o) The Administrative Agent may, but shall have no obligation to, with the written concurrence of any Lender, execute amendments, modifications, waivers or consents on behalf of such Lender. Any waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it was given. No notice to or demand on Borrower in any case shall entitle Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances. (p) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary and, for the avoidance of doubt, without limiting anything set forth in Sections 2.21(b), 2.22(c) and 2.24(c), this Agreement may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Requisite Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Borrower (i) to add one or more additional credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the existing Facilities and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof, (ii) to ensure that each loan made thereunder is guaranteed and secured by the Collateral in a manner consistent with the existing Facilities, (iii) to include, as appropriate, the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any required vote or action of the Requisite Lenders or of the Lenders of each Facility hereunder and (iv) to provide class protection for any additional credit facilities in a manner consistent with those provided the original Facilities pursuant to the provisions of Section 11.1(a) as in effect on the Closing Date. (q) If, in connection with any proposed amendment, modification, waiver or termination requiring unanimous consent or the consent of all affected Lenders, the consent of Requisite Lenders is obtained but the consent of other Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (any such Lender whose consent is not obtained as described in this Section 11.1 being referred to as a “Non-Consenting Lender”), then, so long as the Lender acting as the Administrative Agent is not a Non-Consenting Lender (1) at Borrower’s request, the Administrative Agent or any Eligible Assignee acceptable to the Administrative Agent and, prior to an Event of Default that is continuing, Borrower, shall have the right with the Administrative Agent’s consent and in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have no obligation) to direct the purchase from such Non- Consenting Lender, and such Non-Consenting Lender agrees that it shall, upon the


 
204 Administrative Agent’s request, sell and assign to the Lender acting as the Administrative Agent or such Eligible Assignee, all of the Revolving Credit Commitments and Revolving Credit Outstandings of such Non-Consenting Lender if such Non-Consenting Lender is a Revolving Credit Lender, or all of the Term Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender if such Non-Consenting Lender is a Term Loan Lender, in each case for an amount equal to the principal balance of all such Revolving Loans or Term Loans, as applicable, held by the Non-Consenting Lender and all accrued interest and fees with respect thereto through the date of sale (and, upon receipt of such amount by the Non- Consenting Lender, shall be deemed to have so sold), such purchase and sale to be consummated pursuant to an executed Assignment and Assumption or (2) the Borrower may, on written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Consenting Lender, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing, prepay the Loans and, if applicable, terminate the Revolving Credit Commitments of such Non-Consenting Lender, in whole or in part, subject to Section 10.6, without premium or penalty. In furtherance of the foregoing clause (d)(1), each Lender hereby grants to the Administrative Agent and Borrower an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver on behalf of such Lender, as assignor, any Assignment and Assumption necessary to effectuate any such assignment of such Lender’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 11.1(d); provided that the Administrative Agent shall not exercise such power of attorney unless such Lender has failed to enter into any such Assignment and Assumption within 3 days following any written request from Borrower or the Administrative Agent following the occurrence of any of the circumstances set forth above in this clause (d). (r) If any amendment, amendment and restatement or other modification of this Agreement is consummated on or prior to the first anniversary of the Closing Date and has the effect, at any time on or prior to such first anniversary (such time, the “Applicable Time”), of decreasing the Weighted Average Yield with respect to the Term Loans that would otherwise have been in effect at the Applicable Time (a “Repricing Amendment”), if such Repricing Amendment is made primarily for the purpose of reducing the Weighted Average Yield of such Term Loans, Borrower shall pay a fee, at the Applicable Time, to each Non-Consenting Lender that assigns its Term Loans pursuant to Section 11.1(d) in connection with any such Repricing Amendment in an amount equal to 1.0% of the aggregate principal amount of the affected Term Loans held by such Term Loan Lender. Section 11.2 Assignments and Participations. (n) 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, except that Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender and no Lender or Issuer may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of


 
205 clauses (b) and (i) below, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of clause (h) below or (iii) by way of a grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle or a pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions in clause (g) below (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and void). Nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and permitted assigns, Participants to the extent provided in clause (h) below, Special Purpose Vehicles to the extent provided in clause (g) below and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, each of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers, their respective Affiliates and each of their respective partners, directors, officers, employees, agents, trustee, representatives, attorneys, consultants and advisors) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. (o) Each Lender may at any time assign to one or more Eligible Assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations hereunder (including all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment and the Revolving Loans at the time owing to it and all of its rights and obligations with respect to the Term Loans and Letters of Credit); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: (A) (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the Term Loans at the time owing to an assigning Lender, or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned and (B) in any case not described in clause (b)(i)(A) above, the aggregate amount of the Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the Closing Date (as defined in the Assignment and Assumption) of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall not be less than $1,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any. (B) (A) In the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment and the Revolving Loans at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender, no minimum amount need be assigned and (B) in any case not described in clause (b)(ii)(A) above, the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment (which for this purpose includes the Revolving Credit Outstandings thereunder) or, if the applicable Revolving Credit Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Revolving Credit Outstandings of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the Closing Date (as defined in the


 
206 Assignment and Assumption) of the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment) shall not be less than the $5,000,000 unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing, Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld); provided that such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its Affiliates or Approved Funds, if any. (C) (A) If any such assignment shall be of the assigning Lender’s Revolving Credit Outstandings and Revolving Credit Commitment, such assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Revolving Credit Outstandings and the Revolving Credit Commitment assigned and (B) if any such assignment shall be of the assigning Lender’s Term Loans, such assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Term Loans assigned. Any such assignment need not be ratable as among the Facilities. (D) No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by clause (b)(i)(B) or (b)(ii)(B) above and, in addition: the consent of Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld (x) in the case of a proposed assignment of Term Loans and (y) in the case of a proposed assignment of Revolving Loans and Revolving Credit Commitments to an Approved Commercial Bank) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default pursuant to Section 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such assignment; (y) such assignment is of a Term Loan and to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender other than an Affiliate that is a Disqualified Institution or (z) solely in the case of Term Loans, an Approved Fund; the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) shall be required for assignments to a Person who is not a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund; and the consent of the applicable Issuer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld in the case of a proposed assignment to an Approved Commercial Bank) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not then outstanding). (p) The parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent for its acceptance and recording, an Assignment and Assumption, together with any Note (if the assigning Lender’s Loans are evidenced by a Note) subject to such assignment. The assignee, if it is not a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative


 
207 Agent an Administrative Questionnaire. Upon such execution, delivery, acceptance and recording and the receipt by the Administrative Agent from the assignee of an assignment fee in the amount of $3,500 (other than in respect of assignments made pursuant to Sections 2.17 and 11.1(d), it being understood that only one such fee shall be payable in connection with concurrent assignments to or by two or more Approved Funds), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, (i) 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, if such Lender was an Issuer, of such Issuer hereunder, (ii) the Notes (if any) corresponding to the Loans assigned thereby shall be transferred to such assignee by notation in the Register and (iii) the assignor thereunder shall, to the extent that rights and obligations under this Agreement have been assigned by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption, relinquish its rights (except for those surviving the payment in full of the Obligations) and be released from its obligations under the Loan Documents, other than those relating to events or circumstances occurring prior to such assignment (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under the Loan Documents, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this paragraph 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 (h) of this Section 11.2. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assignment pursuant to clause (i) below shall be subject to the requirements of this clause (c). (q) The Administrative Agent, acting on behalf of Borrower, shall maintain at its address referred to in Section 11.9 a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it and shall record in the Register the names and addresses of the Lenders and Issuers, the Commitments of each Lender and the principal amount of the Loans, Letters of Credit and Reimbursement Obligations owing to each Lender and to each Issuer from time to time. Any assignment pursuant to this Section 11.2 shall not be effective until such assignment is recorded in the Register. The entries in the Register shall be prima facie evidence thereof, and the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and the Issuers may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender or as an Issuer, as applicable, for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Borrower at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Each Lender and Issuer may request from time to time, and the Administrative Agent shall provide, the principal amount of Loans, Letters of Credit and/or Reimbursement Obligations, as applicable, owing to such Lender or Issuer, in each case as reflected in the Register. (r) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clause (d) above, the Loans (including the Notes evidencing such Loans) and the Letters of Credit are registered obligations and the right, title, and interest of the Lenders and their assignees in and to such Loans and the right, title, and interest of the Issuers and their assignees in and to such Letters of Credit shall be transferable only upon notation of such


 
208 transfer in the Register. A Note shall only evidence the Lender’s or an assignee’s right title and interest in and to the related Loan, and in no event is any such Note to be considered a bearer instrument or obligation within the meaning of Section 163(f) of the Code. This Section 11.2 shall be construed so that the Loans and the Letters of Credit are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Sections 163(f), 871(h)(2) and 881(c)(2) of the Code and any related regulations (or any successor provisions of the Code or such regulations). Solely for purposes of this Section 11.2 and for tax purposes only, the Administrative Agent shall act as Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent for purposes of maintaining such notations of transfer in the Register. (s) Upon its receipt of an Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the Administrative Agent shall, if such Assignment and Assumption has been completed, (i) accept such Assignment and Assumption, (ii) record or cause to be recorded the information contained therein in the Register and (iii) give prompt written notice thereof to Borrower. Within ten Business Days after its receipt of such notice, Borrower, at its own expense, shall, if requested by such assignee, execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, new Notes payable to such assignee in an amount equal to the Commitments and Loans assumed by it pursuant to such Assignment and Assumption and, if the assigning Lender has surrendered any Note for exchange in connection with the assignment and has retained Commitments or Loans hereunder, new Notes payable to the assigning Lender in an amount equal to the Commitments retained by it hereunder. Such new Notes shall be dated the same date as the surrendered Notes and be in substantially the form of Exhibit B-1 or Exhibit B-2, as applicable. (t) In addition to the other assignment rights provided in this Section 11.2, each Lender may (i) grant to a Special Purpose Vehicle the option to make all or any part of any Loan that such Lender would otherwise be required to make hereunder and the exercise of such option by any such Special Purpose Vehicle and the making of Loans pursuant thereto shall satisfy (once and to the extent that such Loans are made) the obligation of such Lender to make such Loans thereunder; provided that (x) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment or an offer to commit by such a Special Purpose Vehicle to make Loans hereunder and no such Special Purpose Vehicle shall be liable for any indemnity or other Obligation (other than the making of Loans for which such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have exercised an option, and then only in accordance with the relevant option agreement) and (y) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, such Lender shall remain responsible to the other parties for the performance of its obligations under the terms of this Agreement and shall remain the holder of the Obligations for all purposes hereunder; and (ii) assign, as collateral or otherwise, any of its rights under this Agreement (including rights to payments of principal or interest on the Loans) to (x) any Federal Reserve Bank pursuant to Regulation A of the Federal Reserve Board or any other central banking authority with jurisdiction over such Lender without notice to or consent of Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (y) to any bona fide holder of, any financial trustee for any holder of, any collateral agent for any holder of, or any other representative of holder of,


 
209 obligations owed or securities issued, by such fund, as security for such obligations or securities without notice to or consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent; provided that in so acting such holder, trustee, collateral agent or other representative is acting in its normal course of business, and (z) to any Special Purpose Vehicle to which such Lender has granted an option pursuant to clause (i) above; and provided, further, that no such assignment or grant shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder except as expressly provided in clause (i) above and except, in the case of a subsequent foreclosure pursuant to an assignment as collateral, if such foreclosure is made in compliance with the other provisions of this Section 11.2 other than this clause (g) or clause (h) below. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior debt of any such Special Purpose Vehicle, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, any Special Purpose Vehicle that has been granted an option pursuant to this clause (g) any bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (such agreement shall survive the payment in full of the Obligations). The terms of the designation of, or assignment to, such Special Purpose Vehicle shall not restrict such Lender’s ability to, or grant such Special Purpose Vehicle the right to, consent to any amendment or waiver to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or to the departure by Borrower from any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document without the consent of such Special Purpose Vehicle except, as long as the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, Issuers and other Secured Parties shall continue to, and shall be entitled to continue to, deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement, to the extent any such consent would reduce the principal amount of, or the rate of interest on, any Obligations, amend this clause (g) or postpone any scheduled date of payment of such principal or interest. Each Special Purpose Vehicle shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the obligations under) Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 2.14(c) as if it were such Lender; provided that anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Loan Party shall, at any time, be obligated to make under Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 or 2.14(c) to any such Special Purpose Vehicle and any such Lender any payment in excess of the amount such Loan Party would have been obligated to pay to such Lender in respect of such interest if such Special Purpose Vehicle had not been assigned the rights of such Lender hereunder; provided, further, that such Special Purpose Vehicle shall have no direct right to enforce any of the terms of this Agreement against Borrower, the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders. (u) Each Lender may, without consent of Borrower or Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, Disqualified Institution or Borrower or any of Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Term Loan Commitments, Revolving Credit Commitments and 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, (C) Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuers shall continue to


 
210 deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (D) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (E) prior to selling any participation in any Revolving Commitments, such Lender shall have provided Borrower with not less than five Business Days’ advance notice of such sale; provided that if such Lender does not comply with the notice requirements set forth in this Section 11.2(h)(E), Borrower shall have the right to designate such Lender and/or Participant as a Disqualified Institution (it being understood that Borrower shall provide notice to the Administrative Agent of the applicable Lender and/or Participant being so designated as a Disqualified Institution promptly (and no later than five Business Days) after such designation) and (F) from time to time upon the reasonable request of Borrower, each Lender shall provide Borrower a list all of outstanding participations that such Lender has sold. The terms of such participation shall not, in any event, require the Participant’s consent (or disclosure or any request for a consent) to any amendments, waivers or other modifications of any provision of any Loan Documents, the consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, or to the exercising or refraining from exercising any powers or rights such Lender may have under or in respect of the Loan Documents (including the right to enforce the Obligations of the Loan Parties), except if any such amendment, waiver or other modification or consent would (i) reduce the amount, or postpone any date fixed for, any amount (whether of principal, interest or fees) payable to such Participant under the Loan Documents, to which such Participant would otherwise be entitled under such participation, (ii) increase the amount of commitments participated to such Participant (other than an increase that is immediately followed by a substantially concurrent and equivalent (or larger) decrease), (iii) extend the scheduled final maturity of any loan owing to such Participant, or waive or postpone any scheduled date fixed for the payment or reduction of principal of any such loan or (iv) result in the release of all or substantially all of the Collateral or substantially all of the value of the Guaranty other than in accordance with Section 10.8(b). In the event of the sale of any participation by any Lender, (w) such Lender’s obligations under the Loan Documents shall remain unchanged, (x) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties for the performance of such obligations, (y) such Lender shall remain the holder of such Obligations for all purposes of this Agreement and (z) Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the obligations under) Sections 2.14(c), 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to clause (b) above; provided that (A) no Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under Sections 2.14, 2.15 or 2.16 than it would have been obligated to make in the absence of any participation, unless the sale of such participation is made with the prior written consent of Borrower and Borrower expressly waives the benefit of this provision at the time of such participation, and (B) no Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.16(f) and (g) and provides the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender that granted such participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of


 
211 Section 11.7 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 11.8 as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell or maintain a participation under this Agreement to or with any Disqualified Institution and any participation to a Person that is or at any time becomes a Disqualified Institution shall be null and void, except to the extent the Borrower has expressly consented to such participation in writing. Any such participation and Disqualified Institution not permitted prior to the foregoing sentence shall be subject to the provisions of Section 11.2(p), except to the extent the Borrower has otherwise expressly consented in writing. Any attempted participation which does not comply with this Section 11.2(h) shall be null and void. (v) Any Issuer may at any time assign its rights and obligations hereunder to any other Revolving Credit Lender by an instrument in form and substance satisfactory to Borrower, the Administrative Agent, such Issuer and such Lender, subject to the provisions under Section 11.2(d) relating to notations of transfer in the Register. If any Issuer ceases to be a Lender hereunder by virtue of any assignment made pursuant to this Section 11.2(i), then, as of the effective date of such cessation, such Issuer’s obligations to Issue Letters of Credit pursuant to Section 2.4 shall terminate and such Issuer shall be an Issuer hereunder only with respect to outstanding Letters of Credit issued prior to such date. (w) The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Assumption shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act. (x) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, but subject to the consent rights of the Administrative Agent in Section 11.2(b)(iv)(B), (x) any Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement in respect of its Term Loans to any Parent Entity, the Borrower, any Subsidiary or an Affiliated Lender and (y) any Parent Entity, the Borrower and any Subsidiary may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Term Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis through (1) Dutch auction procedures open to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance with customary procedures to be agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable agent managing such auction); provided that (A) any such Dutch auction by the Borrower or its Subsidiaries shall be made in accordance with Section 2.8(c), (B) any such Dutch auction by any Parent Entity shall be made on terms substantially similar to Section 2.8(c) or on other terms to be agreed between such Parent Entity and the Administrative Agent (or other applicable agent managing such auction) and (C) no Revolving Loans shall be used to fund any such purchase or (2) open market purchases; provided further that:


 
212 (A) no Revolving Loans shall be used to fund any such purchase; (B) in the case of Dutch auctions only, no Event of Default under Section 9.1(a), 9.1(b) or 9.1(f) shall have occurred and be continuing or would result therefrom; and (C) all Term Loans purchased pursuant to this Section 11.2(k) shall be immediately and automatically permanently cancelled. (y) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to any assignment to or by an Affiliated Lender: such Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund and such other Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit J hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption”); [Reserved]; at the time of such assignment after giving effect to such assignment, the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Commitments (including Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments) held by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Credit Commitments (including Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments) outstanding under this Agreement; at the time of such assignment after giving effect to such assignment, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (including Incremental Term Loans) held by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (including Incremental Term Loans) outstanding under this Agreement; and any such Term Loans acquired by an Affiliated Lender may, with the consent of Borrower, be contributed to Borrower, whether through a Parent Entity or otherwise, and exchanged for debt or equity securities of Borrower or such Parent Entity that are otherwise permitted to be issued at such time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, so long as any Term Loans so acquired by Borrower shall be retired and cancelled promptly upon the acquisition thereof. (B) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund shall have any right to (A) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, (B) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by or among the


 
213 Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to Borrower or its representatives or (C) receive advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or challenge their attorney client privilege. (C) Notwithstanding anything in Section 11.1 or the definition of “Requisite Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Requisite Lenders, all affected Lenders or all Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, an Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not such Affiliated Lenders; provided that no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any Loan Document shall deprive such Affiliated Lender of its Ratable Portion of any payments to which such Affiliated Lender is entitled under the Loan Documents without such Affiliated Lender providing its consent; provided, further, that such Affiliated Lender shall have the right to approve any amendment, modification, waiver or consent that (x) disproportionately and adversely affects such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender, (y) is of the type described in Section 11.1(a)(i) through (x) of this Agreement to the extent that such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender is directly and adversely affected thereby or (z) would otherwise require the consent of all Lenders or each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby. In furtherance of the foregoing, (x) the Affiliated Lender agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any instrument reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the voting of its interest as a Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Section 11.2(l)(iii); provided that if the Affiliated Lender fails to promptly execute such instrument such failure shall in no way prejudice any of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this paragraph and (y) the Administrative Agent is hereby appointed (such appointment being coupled with an interest) by such Affiliated Lender as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Section 11.2(l)(iii).


 
214 (D) Each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund, solely in its capacity as a Term Loan Lender, hereby agrees, and each Affiliated Lender Assignment Agreement shall provide a confirmation that, if any Agilon Restricted Entity shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (“Bankruptcy Proceedings”), such Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that is supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Affiliated Lender’s claim with respect to its Loans (including, without limitation, objecting to any debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as such Affiliated Lender is treated in connection with such exercise or action on the same or better terms as the other Term Loan Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this Section 11.2(l)(iv), and the related provisions set forth in each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption, constitute a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where Agilon Restricted Entity has filed for protection under any law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors applicable to such Agilon Restricted Entity. (z) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 11.1 or the definition of “Requisite Lenders,” for purposes of determining whether the Requisite Lenders have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any other Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, all Term Loans held by Affiliated Debt Funds may not account for more than 49.9% of the Term Loans of consenting Lenders included in determining whether the Requisite Lenders have consented to any action pursuant to Section 11.1. (aa) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, no assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to this Section 11.2 would be entitled to any payment under Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 or 11.3 in an amount greater than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to as of such date under such Sections with respect to the rights assigned, shall be entitled to such greater payments unless the assignment was made after an Event of Default under Section 9.1(a) or


 
215 9.1(f)(ii) has occurred and is continuing or Borrower has expressly consented in writing to waive the benefit of this provision at the time of such assignment. (bb) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, assignments deemed to occur pursuant to Section 11.25 shall be permitted. (cc) (A) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to the contrary, if any Lender or Participant at any time is or becomes a Disqualified Institution, then for so long as such Lender or Participant shall be a Disqualified Institution, the provisions of this Section 11.2(p) shall apply with respect to such Disqualified Institution unless the Borrower shall have otherwise expressly consented in writing in its sole discretion (and regardless of whether the Borrower shall have consented to any assignment or participation to such Lender or Participant). (A) Any Disqualified Institution shall be bound by the provisions of, but shall not have any rights or remedies or be a beneficiary (whether as a Lender, a Participant or otherwise) under or with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Without limiting the foregoing, a Disqualified Institution (1) shall not be entitled to and shall have no right to receive any payment in respect of principal (other than with respect to payments of principal on the final maturity date for the applicable Tranche), interest, fees, costs, expenses or any other amount under or in respect of any Loan Document, including but not limited to pursuant to Sections 2.4, 2.8, 2.9, 2.10, 2.12, 10.6, 11.2(h), 11.3 or 11.7 of this Agreement or any similar provision of any other Loan Document, and (2) shall be deemed not to be a Secured Party under or in respect of any Loan Document. No fees or interest shall accrue for the account of a Disqualified Institution (except solely for interest payable to a permitted assignee thereof following an assignment to such assignee (1) pursuant to and as expressly provided in Section 11.2(b) and (2) pursuant to and as expressly provided in Section 11.2(p)(iv) below). (B) No Disqualified Institution shall have any right to approve, disapprove or consent to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any term hereof or thereof. In determining whether the requisite Lender or Lenders have consented to any such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification, and in determining the Requisite Lenders or Requisite Revolving Credit Lenders for any purpose under or in respect of any Loan Document, any Lender that is a Disqualified Institution (and the Loans, Commitments and/or interests in Letter of Credit Obligations of such Disqualified Institution) shall be excluded and disregarded. Each such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification shall be binding and effective as to each Disqualified Institution.


 
216 (C) The Borrower shall have the right (A) at the sole expense of any Lender that is a Disqualified Institution and/or the Person that assigned its Commitments and/or Loans to such Disqualified Institution, to seek to replace or terminate such Disqualified Institution as a Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign any or all of its Commitments and/or Loans and its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees (which may, at the Borrower’s sole option, be or include any Parent Entity, the Borrower or any Subsidiary); provided that (1) the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to the Borrower to find such a replacement Lender, (2) the Borrower shall not have any obligation to such Disqualified Institution or any other Person to find such a replacement Lender or accept or consent to any such assignment to itself or any other Person and (3) the assignee (or, at its option, the Borrower) shall pay to such Disqualified Institution concurrently with such assignment an amount (which payment shall be deemed payment in full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal amount of the Loans so assigned, (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Commitments and/or Loans, and (z) the most recently available quoted price for such Commitments and/or Loans (as determined by the Borrower in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive, the “Trading Price”), in each case without interest thereon (it being understood that if the effective date of such assignment is not an interest payment date, such assignee shall be entitled to receive on the next succeeding interest payment date interest on the principal amount of the Loans so assigned that has accrued and is unpaid from the interest payment date last preceding such effective date (except as may be otherwise agreed between such assignee and the Borrower)), or (B) to prepay any Loans held by such Disqualified Institution, in whole or in part, by paying an amount (which payment shall be deemed payment in full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal amount of the Loans so prepaid, (y) the amount that such Disqualified Institution paid to acquire such Loans, and (z) the Trading Price for such Loans (in each case without interest thereon), and if applicable, terminate the Commitments of such Disqualified Institution, in whole or in part. In connection with any such replacement, (1) if the Disqualified Institution does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption and/or any other documentation necessary or appropriate (in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, which determination shall be conclusive) to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which the Disqualified Institution shall be paid by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower) the amount required pursuant to this Section 11.2(p)(iv)(B), then such Disqualified Institution shall be deemed to have executed and delivered


 
217 such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Disqualified Institution, and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register, (2) each Lender (whether or not then a party hereto) agrees to disclose to the Borrower the amount that the applicable Disqualified Institution paid to acquire Commitments and/or Loans from such Lender and (3) each Lender that is a Disqualified Institution agrees to disclose to the Borrower the amount it paid to acquire the Commitments and/or Loans held by it. (D) No Disqualified Institution (whether as a Lender, a Participant or otherwise) shall have any right to (A) receive any information or material made available to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (B) have access to any Internet or intranet website to which any of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party or other website or whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or otherwise), (C) attend (including by telephone) or otherwise participate in any meeting or discussions (or portions thereof) among or with the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, (D) receive any information or material prepared by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders or (E) receive advice of counsel to the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or challenge their attorney client privilege. Any Disqualified Institution shall not solicit or seek to obtain any such information or material. If at any time any Disqualified Institution receives or possesses any such information or material, such Disqualified Institution shall (1) notify the Borrower as soon as possible that such information or material has become known to it or came into its possession, (2) immediately return to the Borrower or, at the option of the Borrower, destroy (and confirm to the Borrower such destruction) such information or material, together with any notes, analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies or other documents related thereto which it or its advisors prepared and (3) keep such information or material confidential and shall not utilize such information or material for any purpose. Each Lender (whether or not then a party hereto) agrees to notify the Borrower as soon as possible if it becomes aware that (x) it made an assignment to or has a participation with a Disqualified Institution or (y) any such Disqualified Institution has received any such information of materials. (E) The rights and remedies of the Borrower provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies provided to the Borrower at law or in equity, and the Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it against any Lender


 
218 that has (or has purported to have) made an assignment or sold or maintained a participation to or with a Disqualified Institution or against any Disqualified Institution. In no event shall the Administrative Agent be (x) obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any Person is a Disqualified Institution or (y) have any liability with respect to or arising out of an assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, to, or, the restrictions on any exercise of rights or remedies, of, any Disqualified Institution; provided that, unless the Borrower has consented to an assignment to an applicable Disqualified Institution, this sentence shall not relieve the Administrative Agent of any liability arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent (in each case, as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and non-appealable judgment). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrative Agent may, upon request from any Lender, inform such Lender whether any potential assignee or participant is included on the list of Disqualified Institutions. Section 11.3 Costs and Expenses. (n) Borrower agrees promptly following demand therefor, to pay or cause to be paid, or reimburse, or cause to be reimbursed, the Administrative Agent and the Joint Lead Arrangers for, all of the reasonable internal and external audit, legal, appraisal, valuation, filing, document duplication and reproduction and investigation expenses and for all other reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of every type and nature of such Person (including, without limitation, the reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of (i) the Administrative Agent’s counsel, Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, in its capacity as counsel with respect to the Facilities, and (ii) (A) those local legal counsel, conflicts counsel, auditors, accountants, appraisers, printers, insurance and environmental advisors, and other consultants and agents retained by the Administrative Agent prior to the Closing Date, (B) with Borrower’s consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) (1) local counsel in any appropriate jurisdiction and (2) in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, a single conflicts counsel for each affected Person and (C) such other local legal counsel (limited to one firm of counsel for the Administrative Agent, Lenders and Joint Lead Arrangers), auditors, accountants, appraisers, printers, insurance and environmental advisors, and other consultants and agents as may be retained by the Administrative Agent after the Closing Date with prior consent of Borrower (but excluding all Taxes, fees and similar charges)) incurred by the Administrative Agent before, on or after the Closing Date in connection with any of the following: (i) the preparation, negotiation, execution or interpretation of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the satisfaction or attempted satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III), any Loan Document or any proposal letter or commitment letter issued in connection therewith, or the making of the Loans hereunder, (ii) the creation, perfection or protection of the Liens under any Loan Document (including any reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses for local counsel in various jurisdictions), (iii) the ongoing administration of this Agreement and the Loans, including consultation with

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, nothing contained in this Section 11.25 shall modify or otherwise alter the rights or obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document of any Person party hereto (other than an Acknowledging Party to the extent set forth in this Section 11.25) or with respect to any liability that is not a Covered Liability. Section 11.26 Recognition of U.S. Special Resolution Regime. In the event that any Lender that is a Covered Entity becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer from such Lender of this Agreement, and any interest and obligation in or under this Agreement, will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement, and any such interest and obligation, were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event that any Lender that is a Covered Entity or a BHC Act Affiliate of such Lender becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under this Agreement that may be exercised against such Lender are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if this Agreement were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States.
