WHEREAS, pursuant to Section 11.01 of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the consent of the Borrower and each Second Lien Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, and the acknowledgement of the Administrative Agent, on the First Amendment Effective Date, is required to effect certain amendments to the Second Lien Credit Agreement as set forth in Section 3 hereto;

WHEREAS, the Consenting Second Lien Lenders constitute all Lenders under the Second Lien Credit Agreement on the First Amendment Effective Date; and

WHEREAS, each Consenting Second Lien Lender consents to amend the Second Lien Credit Agreement as set forth herein, and the Administrative Agent acknowledges such amendments to the Second Lien Credit Agreement as set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Borrower hereby elects to make the entire interest payment due under the Second Lien Credit Agreement on the last Business Day of March, 2020 (after giving effect to the amendments contemplated hereby, in the amount of $5,874,152.26) via payment-in-kind by adding such amount to the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans on such date; and

WHEREAS, in accordance with Section 2.16 of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the March 2020 Incremental Lenders, the Consenting Second Lien Lenders and the Administrative Agent have agreed, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth herein, that, on the last Business Day of March 2020, the March 2020 Incremental Lenders will make Incremental Term Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount of $5,625,000, the proceeds of which will be used for general corporate purposes and to finance transactions not prohibited by the Second Lien Credit Agreement.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which is acknowledged by each party hereto, it is agreed as follows.

SECTION 1.    DEFINED TERMS. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Second Lien Credit Agreement or the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable.

SECTION 2.    INCREMENTAL AMENDMENT.

(a)    Pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, the Borrower hereby proposes to incur $5,625,000 of Incremental Term Loans (such Incremental Term Loans, the “March 2020 Incremental Term Loans”).

(b)    Each March 2020 Incremental Lender identified on the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule attached hereto as Annex I (the “March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule”) has been invited by the Borrower, and each has severally agreed, subject to the terms hereof, to (i) provide an Incremental Term Loan Commitment in an amount equal to the amount allocated to such March 2020 Incremental Lender on the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule (such Incremental Term Loan Commitments, collectively, the “March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitments”) and (ii) make that portion of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans equal to the Incremental Term Loan Commitment allocated to such March 2020 Incremental Lender on the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule to the Borrower in Dollars on the First Amendment Effective Date. The aggregate amount of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitments immediately prior to the funding of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans on the First Amendment Effective Date is $5,625,000. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to conclusively assume that the entire amount of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans contemplated to be made on the First Amendment Effective Date have been made as of such date, including for purposes of maintaining the Register.

(c)    Pursuant to Section 2.16 of the Second Lien Credit Agreement, by execution and delivery of this First Amendment, each March 2020 Incremental Lender agrees and acknowledges that it shall have an Incremental Term Loan Commitment in an amount equal to the amount allocated to such March 2020 Incremental Lender on the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule. Upon the funding of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans, the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to $0.

2

(d)    The Borrower has elected to incur the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans in reliance on the Ratio Amount; provided that if it should later be determined that such amount was not permitted under the Ratio Amount for any reason, such amount shall automatically be deemed to have been incurred under the Fixed Incremental Amount.

(e)    The terms of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans shall be identical to the terms of the Initial Term Loans for all purposes under the Second Lien Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents (provided that it is understood that the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans shall be issued at par). The March 2020 Incremental Term Loans shall be of the same Class as the Initial Term Loans and the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans shall have the same rights as and be subject to the provisions of the Second Lien Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents on the same basis as the Initial Term Loans. The parties hereto intend to treat the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans as fungible with the Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the First Amendment Effective Date for U.S. federal income tax purposes. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans that shall be outstanding on the First Amendment Effective Date after (i) giving effect to the incurrence of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans and (ii) making the entire interest payment due under the Second Lien Credit Agreement on the last Business Day of March, 2020 via payment-in-kind, is $236,499,152.26.

(f)    Each March 2020 Incremental Lender, by delivering its signature page to this First Amendment on the First Amendment Effective Date,

(i)    confirms that it has received a copy of the Second Lien Credit Agreement and has received or has been accorded the opportunity to receive copies of the most recent financial statements delivered pursuant to Sections 6.01(a) and (b) thereof, as applicable, and such other documents and information as it deems appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this First Amendment and to make that portion of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans equal to the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment allocated to such March 2020 Incremental Lender on the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule;

(ii)    confirms that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this First Amendment and to make that portion of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans equal to the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment allocated to such March 2020 Incremental Lender on the March 2020 Incremental Term Loan Commitment Schedule, and confirms that it will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, make its own credit analysis and decisions in taking or not taking action under the Loan Documents;

(iii)    irrevocably appoints and authorizes Wilmington Trust, National Association to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent

3

under the Loan Documents and authorizes each of the Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent to take such actions as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under this First Amendment, the Second Lien Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to or otherwise conferred upon the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and

(iv)    agrees that it will be bound by the provisions of the Second Lien Credit Agreement as a Lender thereunder and will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Second Lien Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

Furthermore, (A) each March 2020 Incremental Lender acknowledges that it is an Affiliated Lender for all purposes under the Second Lien Credit Agreement and (B) each party hereto acknowledges that (1) other parties hereto currently may have, and later may come into possession of, information regarding the Loan Parties or the Obligations that is not known to it and that may be material to a decision with respect to the Obligations (“Excluded Information”), (2) it has determined to enter into this Amendment and the transactions contemplated hereby notwithstanding its lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information, and (3) no other party shall have no liability to it, and it hereby to the maximum extent permitted by law waives and releases any claims it may have against the other parties hereto, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information; provided that the Excluded Information shall not and does not affect the truth or accuracy of the representations or warranties set forth herein.

(g)    It is understood and agreed that (i) the March Incremental Term Loans are “Incremental Loans,” “Incremental Term Loans” and “Initial Term Loans”; (ii) the March Incremental Term Loan Commitments are “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”; (iii) each March 2020 Incremental Lender is an “Additional Lender” and an “Affiliated Lender”; and (iv) this First Amendment is an “Incremental Amendment,” in each case, as defined in the Second Lien Credit Agreement. It is further understood and agreed that this First Amendment is a “Loan Document” as defined in the Second Lien Credit Agreement.

(h)    In connection with the issuance of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans, the Consenting Second Lien Lenders hereby agree to waive the requirements set forth in Section 2.16(c) of the Second Lien Credit Agreement that (i) the Borrower deliver a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Borrower demonstrating the calculation of the Incremental Amount immediately after giving effect to the incurrence of the March 2020 Incremental Term Loans and (ii) each Incremental Facility be in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than $10,000,000.

The Borrower and Holdings hereby agree that if, at any time during the PIK Period, the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties incurs any term Indebtedness that is Senior Priority Lien Debt (any such Indebtedness, “New Senior Debt”), the Borrower shall, subject to the provisions of the Closing Date Intercreditor Agreement, be required to first offer the Consenting Second Lien Lenders a bona fide opportunity to provide such New Senior Debt, with all of the material terms of such New Senior Debt to be set forth in writing (the “New Senior Debt Offer”). Each Consenting Second Lien Lender shall be entitled to accept or decline, in writing, the New Senior Debt Offer to provide all or a portion of such New Senior Debt in its sole discretion, and, if the Consenting Second Lien Lenders (or any of their respective Affiliates), as applicable, do not accept the New Senior Debt Offer to provide such New Senior Debt in full within 10 Business Days after the date of receiving the making of such New Senior Debt Offer (such period, the “New Senior Debt Offer Period”), the Borrower shall, within 15 Business Days thereafter, be permitted to cause such New Senior Debt to be provided by such other Persons as the Borrower may choose in its discretion on terms identical to those contained in the New Senior Debt Offer. Should the New Senior Debt Offer be oversubscribed, it shall be subject to pro rata cutbacks. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(a), if the Borrower and Holdings determine in good faith that making the New Senior Debt Offer for the duration of the New Senior Debt Offer Period would have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on Holdings, the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties, then Holdings and the Borrower shall be permitted to cause a Lender to provide all or a portion of the New Senior Debt on terms identical to those contained in the New Senior Debt Offer without regard to the New Senior Debt Offer Period, which shall be deemed not to exist for purposes of the incurrence of such New Senior Debt; provided that it shall be a condition to the incurrence of such New Senior Debt that the Lender providing such New Senior Debt shall be required thereafter to, not later than five Business Days after such incurrence, offer each Consenting Second Lien Lender the opportunity to purchase all or a portion of such New Senior Debt in a manner and on terms (including with respect to economic terms) that give effect to the ability such Consenting Second Lien Lender would otherwise have had to acquire all or a portion of such New Senior Debt pursuant to the New Senior Debt Offer.

(b)    Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt. The Borrower and Holdings hereby agree that if, at any time during the PIK Period, any Unrestricted Subsidiary incurs any Indebtedness (any such Indebtedness, “New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt”), the Borrower shall be required to first offer the Consenting Second Lien Lenders a bona fide opportunity to provide such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt, with all of the material terms of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt to be set forth in writing (the “New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer”). Each Consenting Second Lien Lender shall be entitled to accept or decline, in writing, the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer to provide all or a portion of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt in its sole discretion, and, to the extent the Consenting Second Lien Lenders (or any of their respective Affiliates), as applicable, do not accept the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer to provide such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt in full within 10 Business Days after the date of receiving the making of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer (such period, the “New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer Period”), the Borrower shall, within 15 Business Days thereafter, be permitted to cause such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt to be provided by such other Persons as it may choose in its discretion on terms identical to those contained in the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer. Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 7(b), if the Borrower and Holdings

9

determine in good faith that making the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer for the duration of the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer Period would have, or could reasonably be expected to have, a material adverse effect on Holdings, the Borrower or any of the other Loan Parties, then Holdings and the Borrower shall be permitted to cause an Affiliated Lender to provide all or a portion of the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt on terms identical to those contained in the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer without regard to the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer Period, which shall be deemed not to exist for purposes of the incurrence of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt; provided that it shall be a condition to the incurrence of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt that the Affiliated Lender providing such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt shall be required thereafter to, not later than 5 Business Days after such incurrence, offer each Consenting Second Lien Lender the opportunity to purchase all or a portion of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt in a manner and on terms (including with respect to economic terms) that give effect to the ability such Consenting Second Lien Lender would otherwise have had to acquire all or a portion of such New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt pursuant to the New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt Offer.

(c)    Without limiting the provisions of the Second Lien Credit Agreement (including Article X thereof) and the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into, monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions of this Section 7, and may assume that the Borrower and Holdings have complied with this Section 7 in connection with the incurrence of any New Senior Debt or New Unrestricted Subsidiary Debt.

SECTION 8.     RELEASE OF CLAIMS.
