Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Amendment and Restatement of Credit Agreement

On September 30, 2021, Leggett & Platt, Incorporated (the “Company,” “us,” or “we”) entered into an Amendment Agreement among us, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (“JPMorgan”), and the Lenders with Commitments listed below which adopted the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement is a five-year multi-currency credit facility providing us the ability, from time to time, to borrow, repay and re-borrow up to $1.2 billion until the maturity date, at which time our ability to borrow under the Credit Agreement will terminate. The Credit Agreement amends and restates the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of December 12, 2018 among us, JPMorgan and the Lenders named therein, filed December 14, 2018 as Exhibit 10.1 to our Form 8-K, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of May 6, 2020, filed May 7, 2020 as Exhibit 10.1 to our Form 8-K. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The material amendments to the Credit Agreement included:

(1) Maturity Date of Credit Agreement Extended. The maturity date under our senior unsecured Revolving Facility under the Credit Agreement (the “Revolving Facility”) was extended from January 3, 2024 to September 30, 2026.

(2) Commitments under Revolving Facility Changed. The Revolving Commitments under the Revolving Facility were changed as follows:

Lenders	Prior Revolving Commitments		New Revolving Commitments
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.	$	173,128,342.24	$	155,000,000
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association	$	128,114,973.27	$	130,000,000
U.S. Bank National Association	$	128,114,973.27	$	130,000,000
MUFG Bank, Ltd.	$	128,114,973.27	$	130,000,000
Bank of America, N.A.	$	128,114,973.27	$	130,000,000
PNC Bank, National Association	$	91,764,705.88	$	105,000,000

The Toronto Dominion Bank	$	63,529,411.76	$	75,000,000
Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. New York Branch	$	63,529,411.76	$	75,000,000
Svenska Handelsbanken AB (PUBL) New York Branch	$	45,000,000.00	$	45,000,000
Arvest Bank	$	31,764,705.88	$	45,000,000
SunTrust Bank1	$	91,764,705.88	$	—
Branch Bank and Trust Company1	$	63,529,411.76	$	—
Total	$	1,200,000,000	$	1,200,000,000

¹ SunTrust Bank and Branch Bank and Trust Company merged December 6, 2019. The combined Lender is Truist Bank.

As of the date of this Form 8-K, there was no Borrowing under the Revolving Facility. The Credit Agreement serves as support for our $1.2 billion commercial paper program.

(3) Tranche A Term Facility Eliminated. Prior to the amendment, the Credit Agreement contained a senior unsecured “Tranche A Term Facility” in the aggregate principal amount of $500 million. The Tranche A Term Facility was eliminated. The Lenders were obligated to extend credit under the Tranche A Term Facility in the amounts listed below. We made a one-time draw under the Tranche A Term Facility on January 16, 2019 in the maximum amount of $500 million to finance, in part, our acquisition of Elite Comfort Solutions, Inc. The Tranche A Term Facility loan or “Term Loan A” ranked equally with all our other unsecured and unsubordinated indebtedness, was available only in U.S. Dollars, and required us to pay interest at time intervals based upon the selected interest rate and selected interest period. Under the Term Loan A, we were required to pay

2

(i) $12.5 million of principal payments each quarter (on the last day of March, June, September and December) and (ii) the remaining outstanding principal under the Term Loan A upon the stated maturity date of January 3, 2024. We prepaid the outstanding amount under the Term Loan A on August 31, 2021. Amounts borrowed under the Term Loan A that were repaid or prepaid could not be reborrowed. There were no penalties for early repayment under the Term Loan A. The Term Loan A had customary default and acceleration provisions including those applicable to our breach of representations or warranties, our noncompliance with covenants, or our failure to timely pay all principal, interest and fees.

Prior to the amendment, the Tranche A Term Facility had Commitments for each Lender as follows:

Lenders	Former Tranche A Term Facility Commitments
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.	$	76,871,657.76
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association	$	56,885,026.73
U.S. Bank National Association	$	56,885,026.73
MUFG Bank, Ltd.	$	56,885,026.73
Bank of America, N.A.	$	56,885,026.73
SunTrust Bank1	$	38,235,294.12
PNC Bank, National Association	$	38,235,294.12
BMO Harris Bank, N.A.	$	26,470,588.24
The Toronto Dominion Bank	$	26,470,588.24
Branch Bank and Trust Company1	$	26,470,588.24
Banco Bilbao Vizcaya Argentaria, S.A. New York Branch	$	26,470,588.24
Svenska Handelsbanken AB (PUBL) New York Branch	$	—
Arvest Bank	$	13,235,294.12
Total	$	500,000,000.00

¹ SunTrust Bank and Branch Bank and Trust Company merged December 6, 2019. The combined Lender is Truist Bank.

(4) Increase in Accordion Feature for Incremental Revolving Commitments and Incremental Term Loans. Prior to the amendment, the Credit Agreement contained an “accordion feature” providing for the incremental increase of borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility and an Incremental Term Loan in an amount up to $500 million in addition to the $1.2 billion Revolving Commitments and the former $500 million Tranche A Term Facility upon the request of the Company subject to the Lenders’ consents (i.e. up to an aggregate borrowing capacity of $2.2 billion, subject to covenant limitations). This accordion feature was amended to provide for an increase in incremental borrowing capacity under the Revolving Facility and an Incremental Term Loan of up to $600 million in addition to the borrowing capacity under the $1.2 billion Revolving Commitments upon request of the Company subject to the Lenders’ consents (i.e. up to an aggregate borrowing capacity of $1.8 billion, subject to covenant limitations).

(5) Financial Covenant Changed. Prior to the amendment, the Company was required to maintain a Leverage Ratio of (i) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness (minus Unrestricted Cash) to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA for the four consecutive trailing fiscal quarters, of not more than 3.75 to 1.00 on September 30, 2021, with a step-down to not more than 3.25 to 1.00 as of December 31, 2021 and each fiscal quarter end date thereafter. The amended Leverage Ratio covenant requires the Company to maintain as of the last day of each fiscal quarter (i) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness minus the lesser of: (A) Unrestricted Cash, or (B) $750 million to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA for the four consecutive trailing quarters, such ratio not being greater than 3.50 to 1.00, provided, however, subject to certain limitations, if the Company has made a Material Acquisition in any fiscal quarter, at the Company’s election, the maximum Leverage Ratio shall be 4.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter during which such Material Acquisition is consummated and the next three consecutive fiscal quarters.

(6) Limitation of Secured Debt Changed. Prior to the amendment, the Credit Agreement contained a covenant that limited the outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness and other monetary obligations secured by Liens to 5% of Consolidated Total Assets, which would have increased to 15% on December 31, 2021 and thereafter. The amended Credit Agreement changed this covenant to limit the outstanding principal amount of Indebtedness and other monetary obligations secured by Liens to 15% of Consolidated Total Assets.

3

(7) Anti-Cash Hoarding Provision Removed. Prior to the amendment, the Credit Agreement contained a provision that limited Borrowing if, at the time of the Borrowing and immediately after giving effect of such Borrowing and the use of the proceeds, the Company had a pro forma Consolidated Cash Balance in excess of the Consolidated Cash Balance Limit. The Consolidated Cash Balance Limit was generally defined as $300 million, plus (i) any payments reasonably expected to be made by the Company within five business days for trade payables, Indebtedness, taxes, payroll, or other obligations as certified in writing to JPMorgan, as the administrative agent; (ii) any amount to be used in connection with the consummation of transactions permitted by the Credit Agreement (including any Acquisition and/or the payment of any dividends or distributions) that were contemplated in good faith to be consummated within 30 business days as certified in writing to JPMorgan; and (iii) any amounts to be used for the refinancing or other payment of commercial paper. The anti-cash hoarding provision was removed.

(8) Pricing Table Changed. Prior to the amendment, the definition of Applicable Rate was as follows:

Ratings for Index Debt (S&P/Moody’s)	ABR Spread			Fixed Spread			Commitment Fee Rate
>= A+ / A1		0.000	%		1.000	%		0.100	%
= A / A2		0.125	%		1.125	%		0.150	%
= A- / A3		0.250	%		1.250	%		0.200	%
= BBB+ / Baa1		0.875	%		1.875	%		0.250	%
= BBB / Baa2		1.000	%		2.000	%		0.300	%
< BBB / Baa2		1.500	%		2.500	%		0.500	%

After the amendment, the definition of Applicable Rate is as follows:

Ratings for Index Debt (S&P/Moody’s)	ABR Spread			Fixed/ RFR/ CBR Spread			Commitment Fee Rate
>= A+ / A1		0.000	%		0.750	%		0.060	%
= A / A2		0.000	%		0.875	%		0.070	%
= A- / A3		0.000	%		1.000	%		0.090	%
= BBB+ / Baa1		0.125	%		1.125	%		0.110	%
= BBB / Baa2		0.250	%		1.250	%		0.150	%
< BBB / Baa2		0.375	%		1.375	%		0.200	%

(9) Interest Rate Floors Decreased. Pursuant to the amendment, the interest rate floor for the Alternate Base Rate (“ABR”) was decreased from 2% to 1%. Also, interest rate floors for the Canadian Dollar Offered Rate (“CDOR”) Screen Rate and the London Interbank Offered (“LIBO”) Screen Rate were decreased from 1% to 0%. All other interest rate floors in the Credit Agreement, including interpolated rates, were set at 0.00%.

(10) Benchmark Replacement Mechanism Added. Pursuant to the amendment, provisions were added for the replacement of any Benchmark for an applicable currency upon a Benchmark Transition Event, Early Opt-in Election or Other Benchmark Rate Election (each as defined in the Credit Agreement) where certain interest rate Benchmarks (including the LIBO Rate, the EURIBOR Rate, the CDOR Rate, the Peso Rate and the Daily Simple RFR) would be replaced with an applicable Benchmark Replacement (as defined in the Credit agreement).

General Terms under the Credit Agreement

The Company may elect the type of Borrowing under the Credit Agreement, which determines the rate of interest to be paid on the outstanding principal balance, as follows:

(A) ABR Borrowing. All ABR Loans are denominated in U.S. Dollars. Under an ABR loan, we will pay interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

4

(1) Alternate Base Rate. The Alternate Base Rate is generally the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate last quoted by The Wall Street Journal as the “prime rate” in the United States; (b) the NYFRB Rate, which is the greater of (i) the rate based on federal funds transactions by depository institutions and published as the Federal Funds Effective Rate by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, or (ii) the Overnight Bank Funding Rate published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York; each in effect for such day, plus 1/2 of 1%; or (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for a one month Interest Period, which is the LIBO Screen Rate multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate (meaning a fraction with a numerator of 1, and a denominator of 1 minus the aggregate of the applicable maximum reserve percentages established by the Federal Reserve Board to which JPMorgan is subject), plus 1%.

(2) Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate equals an ABR Spread based on the higher of S&P and Moody’s credit ratings of our senior unsecured long-term debt. The ABR Spread is currently 0.250% per annum.

(B) Fixed Rate Borrowing. Under a Fixed Rate loan, we will pay interest at the Adjusted Fixed Rate for the Interest Period and Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Rate.

(1) Adjusted Fixed Rate. The Adjusted Fixed Rate is generally defined as follows: for any Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in (a) U.S. Dollars, an interest rate equal to the LIBO Screen Rate for the Interest Period, multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate (as defined above); (b) Euros, an interest rate equal to the EURIBOR Screen Rate for the Interest Period, multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate (as defined above); (c) Canadian Dollars, an interest rate equal to the CDOR Screen Rate for the Interest Period, multiplied by the Statutory Reserve Rate (as defined above); and (d) Mexican Pesos, an interest rate equal to the Equilibrium Interbank Interest Rate for a 28 day period determined by Banco de Mexico and published in the Mexican Official Gazette; provided, if the LIBO Screen Rate, EURIBOR Screen Rate, CDOR Screen Rate or Equilibrium Interbank Interest Rate is not available, then the interest rate will be an interpolated or alternative rate determined by JPMorgan. In the event that the LIBO Screen rate, EURIBOR Screen Rate, CDOR Screen Rate or Peso Rate shall be less than 0.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 0.00%.

(2) Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate equals a Fixed Spread based on the higher of S&P and Moody’s credit ratings of our senior unsecured long-term debt. The Fixed Spread is currently 1.250% per annum.

(C) RFR Borrowing. Under a RFR loan, we will pay interest at the applicable Daily Simple RFR for the Interest Period plus the Applicable Rate.

(1) Daily Simple RFR. The Daily Simple RFR is generally the interest rate equal to the greater of (a) for any RFR loan denominated in (i) British Pounds Sterling, the Sterling Overnight Index Average published by the Bank of England on a specified date; (ii) Swiss Francs, the Swiss Average Rate Overnight published by the SIX Swiss Exchange AG on a specified date; and (b) 0.00%.

(2) Applicable Rate. The Applicable Rate equals the RFR Spread based on the higher of S&P and Moody’s credit ratings of our senior unsecured long-term debt. The RFR Spread is currently 1.250%.

(D) Dollar Swingline Loans. Under a Dollar Swingline loan (which may be, but is not required to be made by JPMorgan, as Swingline Lender, usually for short-term administrative convenience in U.S. Dollars on same day notice) we would pay interest at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for an ABR Borrowing.

(E) Competitive Loans. Under a Competitive Loan, we will pay interest at a rate equal to a competitive variable or fixed rate accepted by us.

Payment of Interest and Principal. The Company is required to (a) periodically pay accrued interest on any outstanding principal balance under the Revolving Facility at time intervals based upon the selected interest rate and the selected Interest Period, and (b) pay the outstanding principal of the Revolving Facility upon the maturity date. We can also repay the outstanding principal prior to maturity, except for loans denominated in Mexican Pesos. Also, regarding certain fixed rate borrowing, (other than RFR loans), if, among other things, we repay the outstanding principal prior to maturity, we must pay applicable break funding payments (which roughly equate to the Lenders’ lost interest income).

5

Letters of Credit. Our ability to borrow under the Revolving Facility is reduced by the amount of outstanding Letters of Credit issued pursuant to the Credit Agreement. The amount of Letters of Credit is limited to $125 million. As of the date hereof, there are no Letters of Credit outstanding under the Credit Agreement.

Company Covenants. The Credit Agreement is unsecured, but contains restrictive covenants which, among other things, limit (a) as of the last day of each fiscal quarter, our Leverage Ratio of (i) Consolidated Funded Indebtedness minus the lesser of: (A) Unrestricted Cash, or (B) $750 million to (ii) Consolidated EBITDA for the four consecutive trailing quarters, such ratio not being greater than 3.50 to 1.00, provided, however, subject to certain limitations, if the Company has made a Material Acquisition in any fiscal quarter, at the Company’s election, the maximum Leverage Ratio shall be 4.00 to 1.00 for the fiscal quarter during which such Material Acquisition is consummated and the next three fiscal quarters; (b) the principal amount of Secured Debt to 15% of Consolidated Total Assets, and (c) our ability to sell, lease, transfer or dispose of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (other than products sold in the ordinary course of business) at any given point in time.

Acceleration of Indebtedness. Subject to certain customary cure periods, the Credit Agreement provides that if we breach any representation or warranty, do not comply with any covenant, fail to pay principal, interest or fees in a timely manner, or if any Event of Default (as defined in the Credit Agreement) otherwise occurs, then the Credit Agreement may be terminated, and the Required Lenders may declare all outstanding Indebtedness under the Credit Agreement to be due and immediately payable.

The foregoing is only a summary of certain terms of the Credit Agreement and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Amendment Agreement adopting the Fourth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

JPMorgan, the other listed Lenders and their affiliates have provided, from time to time, and continue to provide commercial banking and related services, as well as investment banking, financial advisory and other services to us and/or to our affiliates, for which we have paid, and intend to pay, customary fees, and, in some cases, out-of-pocket expenses.

3

The Borrower and the parties hereto wish to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Amendment Agreement (as defined herein).

In consideration of mutual covenants and agreements herein and therein contained, the parties hereto covenant and agree to amend and restate the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety as follows:

ARTICLE I

Definitions

SECTION 1.01. Defined Terms. As used in this Agreement, the following terms have the meanings specified below:

“ABR”, when used in reference to any Loan or Borrowing, refers to whether such Loan, or the Loans comprising such Borrowing, are bearing interest at a rate determined by reference to the Alternate Base Rate. All ABR Loans shall be denominated in Dollars.

“Acquisition” means any acquisition, or series of related acquisitions, of property that constitutes (a) assets comprising all or substantially all or any significant portion of a business or operating unit of a business, or (b) all or substantially all of the Equity Interests in a Person.

“Additional Lender” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 2.22(c).

“Adjusted CDOR Rate” means, with respect to any Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Canadian Dollars for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum equal to (a) the CDOR Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

“Adjusted EURIBOR Rate” means, with respect to any Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Euros for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum equal to (a) the EURIBOR Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

“Adjusted Fixed Rate” means, as of any day, an interest rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, the Adjusted CDOR Rate or the Peso Rate, as applicable.

1

“Adjusted LIBO Rate” means, with respect to any Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Dollars for any Interest Period, an interest rate per annum (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/100 of 1%) equal to (a) the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period multiplied by (b) the Statutory Reserve Rate.

“Administrative Agent” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. (and its subsidiaries and affiliates) in its capacity as administrative agent for the Lenders hereunder.

“Administrative Questionnaire” means an Administrative Questionnaire in a form supplied by the Administrative Agent.

“Affected Financial Institution” means (a) any EEA Financial Institution or (b) any UK Financial Institution.

“Affiliate” means, with respect to a specified Person, another Person that directly, or indirectly through one or more intermediaries, Controls or is Controlled by or is under common Control with the Person specified.

“Agent-Related Person” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 8.03(d).

“Aggregate Outstanding Credit” means, at any time, an amount equal to the sum of the Revolving Exposures of all Revolving Lenders plus the aggregate Dollar Equivalent principal amount of outstanding Competitive Loans, in each case, at such time.

“Aggregate Revolving Commitment” means the sum of the Revolving Commitments of all the Revolving Lenders.

“Agreed Currencies” means Dollars and each Alternative Currency.

“Alternate Base Rate” means, for any day, a rate per annum equal to the greatest of (a) the Prime Rate in effect on such day, (b) the NYFRB Rate in effect on such day plus 1/2 of 1% and (c) the Adjusted LIBO Rate for a one month Interest Period on such day (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) plus 1%, provided that, for the purposes of this definition, the Adjusted LIBO Rate for any day shall be based on the LIBO Screen Rate (or if the LIBO Screen Rate is not available for such one month Interest Period, the LIBO Interpolated Rate) at approximately 11:00 a.m. London time on such day. If the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that it is unable to ascertain the NYFRB Rate for any reason, including the inability or failure of the Administrative Agent to obtain sufficient quotations in accordance with the terms of the definition thereof, then the Alternate Base Rate shall be determined without regard to clause (b) of the preceding sentence until the circumstances giving rise to such inability no longer exist. Any change in the Alternate Base Rate due to a change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate shall be effective from and including the effective date of such change in the Prime Rate, the NYFRB Rate or the Adjusted LIBO Rate, respectively. If the Alternate Base Rate is being used as an alternate rate of interest pursuant to Section 2.14 hereof, then the Alternate Base Rate shall be the greater of clause (a) and (b) above and shall be determined without reference to clause (c) above. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Alternate Base Rate shall be less than 1.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be 1.00% for purposes of this Agreement.

2

“Amendment Agreement” means the Amendment Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2021, among the Borrower, the Lenders party thereto and the Administrative Agent.

“Ancillary Document” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 8.06(b).

“Applicable Percentage” means, at any time with respect to any Revolving Lender, the percentage of the sum of the Revolving Commitments of all the Revolving Lenders represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; provided that for purposes of Section 2.23 when a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender shall exist, “Applicable Percentage” shall mean the percentage of the sum of the Revolving Commitments of all other Revolving Lenders (disregarding any Defaulting Lender’s Commitment) represented by such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. If the Revolving Commitments have terminated or expired, the Applicable Percentages shall be determined based upon the Revolving Commitments most recently in effect, giving effect to any assignments and to any Revolving Lender’s status as a Defaulting Lender at the time of determination.

“Applicable Rate” means, for any day, with respect to any Loan that is an ABR Loan, a Fixed Rate Revolving Loan, an RFR Revolving Loan or a CBR Loan or with respect to the commitment fees payable hereunder, as the case may be, the applicable rate per annum set forth below under the caption “ABR Spread”, “Fixed Spread”, “RFR Spread”, “CBR Spread” or “Commitment Fee Rate”, as the case may be, based upon the higher of the ratings by S&P and Moody’s, respectively, applicable on such date to the Index Debt. In the event the ratings for the Index Debt fall within different ratings categories, the Applicable Rate shall (a) be based on the higher of such ratings if there is only one category difference between such ratings or (b) be based on the category that is one level lower than the highest of such ratings if there is more than one category difference between such ratings.

3

Ratings for Index Debt	ABR Spread			Fixed / RFR / CBR Spread			Commitment Fee Rate
>= A+ / A1		0.000	%		0.750	%		0.060	%
= A / A2		0.000	%		0.875	%		0.070	%

For purposes of the foregoing, if the ratings established or deemed to have been established by Moody’s and S&P for the Index Debt shall be changed (other than as a result of a change in the rating system of Moody’s or S&P), such change shall be effective as of the date on which it is first announced by the applicable rating agency. Each change in the Applicable Rate shall apply during the period commencing on the effective date of such change and ending on the date immediately preceding the effective date of the next such change. If the rating system of Moody’s or S&P shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall negotiate in good faith to amend this definition to reflect such changed rating system or the unavailability of ratings from such rating agency and, pending the effectiveness of any such amendment, the Applicable Rate shall be determined by reference to the rating most recently in effect prior to such change or cessation.

“Arrangers” means JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, U.S. Bank National Association, MUFG Bank, Ltd. and BofA Securities, Inc. in their capacities as the joint bookrunners, the joint lead arrangers and/or syndication agents for the credit facilities provided for herein.

“Benchmark” means, initially, with respect to any (i) RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency, the applicable Relevant Rate for such Agreed Currency or (ii) Fixed Rate Loan, the Relevant Rate for such Agreed Currency; provided that if a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred with respect to the applicable Relevant Rate or the then-current Benchmark for such Agreed Currency, then “Benchmark” means the applicable Benchmark Replacement to the extent that such Benchmark Replacement has replaced such prior benchmark rate pursuant to clause (b) or clause (c) of Section 2.14.

“Benchmark Replacement” means, for any Available Tenor, the first alternative set forth in the order below that can be determined by the Administrative Agent for the applicable Benchmark Replacement Date; provided that, in the case of any Loan denominated in an Alternative Currency or in the case of an Other Benchmark Rate Election, “Benchmark Replacement” shall mean the alternative set forth in (3) below:

Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided that (i) if the Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent that the Borrower requests an amendment to any provision (including any definition) hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower that the Required Lenders request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith and (ii) notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed, and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made, (A) without giving effect to any election under Accounting Standards Codification 825 – Financial Instruments, to value any Indebtedness of the Borrower or any Subsidiary at “fair value”, as defined therein, (B) without giving effect to any treatment of Indebtedness in respect of convertible debt instruments under Accounting Standards Codification 470-20 or 2015-03 (or any other Accounting Standards Codification or Financial Accounting Standard having a similar result or effect) to value any such Indebtedness in a reduced or bifurcated manner as described therein, and such Indebtedness shall at all times be valued at the full stated principal amount thereof, and (C) without giving effect to any change to GAAP occurring after January 1, 2017, as a result of the adoption of any proposals set forth in the Proposed Accounting Standards Update 2016-02—Leases (Topic 842), issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board on February 25, 2016, or any other proposals issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board in connection therewith, in each case if such change would require treating any lease (or similar arrangement conveying the right to use) as a capital lease where such lease (or similar arrangement) would not have been required to be so treated under GAAP as in effect January 1, 2017.

SECTION 1.05. Conversion of Foreign Currencies. (a) Dollar Equivalents. The Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall determine the Dollar Equivalent of any amount when required or permitted hereby, and a determination thereof by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, rely on any determination by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as applicable, may determine or redetermine the Dollar Equivalent of any amount on any date either in its own discretion or upon the request of the Borrower or any Lender, including without limitation, the Dollar Equivalent of any Loan or Letter of Credit made or issued in an Alternative Currency.

(b) Rounding-Off. The Administrative Agent may set up appropriate rounding-off mechanisms or otherwise round-off amounts hereunder to the nearest higher or lower amount in whole Dollars, whole Euros or whole units of any other Agreed Currency or whole cents or other sub unit of an Agreed Currency to ensure amounts owing by any party hereunder or that otherwise need to be calculated or converted hereunder are expressed in whole units of the applicable Agreed Currency or in whole sub units of the applicable Agreed Currency, as may be necessary or appropriate.

SECTION 1.06. Pro Forma. For the purpose of calculating Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Net Income for any period, if during such period (or subsequent to such period and on or prior to the date of determination) the Borrower or any Subsidiary shall have made an Acquisition or Disposition, each of Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Net Income shall be calculated giving pro forma effect thereto as if such Acquisition or Disposition occurred on the first day of such period. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, for purposes of determining compliance with any test contained in this Agreement on a pro forma basis, (i) the

40

Leverage Ratio and any other financial ratio or test shall be calculated on a pro forma basis to give effect to all Acquisitions and Dispositions that have been made during the applicable period of measurement or subsequent to such period and prior to or simultaneously with the event for which the calculation is made, (ii) whether or not any date of determination is the last day of a fiscal quarter, on any such date of determination Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Net Income shall each be calculated on a pro forma basis as of the most recently ended four fiscal quarter period as of such date of determination and Consolidated Funded Debt shall be calculated on a pro forma basis as of the date of determination and (iii) on any date of determination that is not the last day of a fiscal quarter, the applicable level for purposes of Section 5.12 shall be the level applicable as of the most recently ended fiscal quarter (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that solely for purposes of determining actual compliance with Section 5.14, the date of the required calculation shall be the last day of the applicable fiscal quarter and no Acquisitions or Dispositions occurring thereafter shall be taken into account). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had been the applicable rate for the entire period (taking into account any hedging agreement applicable to such Indebtedness if such hedging agreement has a remaining term in excess of 12 months). Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, when calculating the amount of outstanding Indebtedness hereunder on a pro forma basis on any date of determination and for purposes of interpreting the term “refinance” (or any similar term), any Indebtedness (“Refinancing Indebtedness”) incurred that is intended to refinance any other Indebtedness (such other Indebtedness, “Refinanced Indebtedness”) shall for the avoidance of doubt be deemed to be a refinancing of such Refinanced Indebtedness so long as the net cash proceeds of such Refinancing Indebtedness are intended by the Borrower to be utilized to pay the principal amount of the Refinanced Indebtedness and any fees, costs and expenses related thereto within 60 days of the incurrence of such Refinancing Indebtedness (and such intent shall be conclusively established on the date of the incurrence of such Refinancing Indebtedness if the Borrower shall deliver a certificate to the Administrative Agent as to such intent); provided that if any such Refinanced Indebtedness is not actually repaid within such 60 day period, such Refinanced Indebtedness and such Refinancing Indebtedness shall thereafter be deemed outstanding unless and until it is otherwise repaid.

SECTION 1.07. Interest Rates; LIBOR Notification. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars or an Alternative Currency may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Regulators have signaled the need to use alternative benchmark reference rates for some of these interest rate benchmarks and, as a result, such interest rate benchmarks may cease to comply with applicable laws and regulations, may be permanently discontinued, and/or the basis on which they are calculated may change. The London interbank offered rate (“LIBOR”) is intended to represent the rate at which contributing banks may obtain short-term borrowings from each other in the London interbank market. On March 5, 2021, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”) publicly announced that: (a) immediately after December 31, 2021, publication of the 1-week and 2-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; immediately after June 30, 2023, publication of the overnight and 12-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will permanently cease; and immediately after June 30, 2023, the 1-month, 3-month and 6-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will cease to be provided or, subject to the FCA’s consideration of the case, be provided on a changed methodology (or “synthetic”) basis and no longer be representative of the underlying market and economic reality they are intended to measure and that representativeness will not be restored.

41

There is no assurance that dates announced by the FCA will not change or that the administrator of LIBOR and/or regulators will not take further action that could impact the availability, composition, or characteristics of LIBOR or the currencies and/or tenors for which LIBOR is published. Each party to this agreement should consult its own advisors to stay informed of any such developments. Public and private sector industry initiatives are currently underway to identify new or alternative reference rates to be used in place of LIBOR. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, Section 2.14(b) and (c) provide a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower, pursuant to Section 2.14(e), of any change to the reference rate upon which the interest rate on Fixed Rate Loans is based. However, the Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to the Daily Simple RFR, LIBOR or other rates in the definition of “LIBO Rate” (or “EURIBOR Rate”, “CDOR Rate” or “Peso Rate”, as applicable) or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof (including, without limitation, (i) any such alternative, successor or replacement rate implemented pursuant to Section 2.14(b) or (c), whether upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, a Term SOFR Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, and (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes pursuant to Section 2.14(d)), including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the Daily Simple RFR, the LIBO Rate (or the EURIBOR Rate, the CDOR Rate or the “Peso Rate”, as applicable) or have the same volume or liquidity as did the London interbank offered rate (or the euro interbank offered rate, Canadian interbank offered rate or Mexican interbank offered rate, as applicable) prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any Daily Simple RFR, any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any RFR, Daily Simple RFR or the Adjusted Fixed Rate, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrower, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service. In connection with any change to the reference rate pursuant to this Section, the parties shall jointly use commercially reasonable efforts to satisfy any applicable Internal Revenue Service guidance so that such change will not be treated as causing a deemed “exchange” under Section 1001 of the Code or “modification” under Section 1.1001-3 of the Treasury Regulations, it being understood that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action under this provision that would cause it or the Lenders any commercially unreasonable burden as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent.

42

SECTION 1.08. Certain Determinations. For purposes of determining compliance with any of the covenants set forth in Article V (including in connection with any Incremental Extension of Credit) at any time (whether at the time of incurrence or thereafter), any Lien or Indebtedness meets the criteria of one, or more than one, of the categories permitted pursuant to Article V (including in connection with any Incremental Extension of Credit), the Borrower (i) shall in its sole discretion determine under which category such Lien or Indebtedness is permitted and (ii) shall be permitted, in its sole discretion, to make any redetermination and/or to divide, classify or reclassify under which category or categories such Lien or Indebtedness is permitted from time to time as it may determine and without notice to the Administrative Agent or any Lender.

SECTION 1.09. Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

ARTICLE II

The Credits

SECTION 2.01. Commitments. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, each Lender agrees to make Revolving Loans to the Borrower in the Agreed Currency requested from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period in an aggregate principal amount that will not result in (a) such Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment or (b) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit exceeding the Aggregate Revolving Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans.

SECTION 2.02. Loans and Borrowings. (a) Loans Made Ratably. Each Revolving Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required.

(b) Type of Loans and Borrowings. Subject to Section 2.14, each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised (a) in the case of Borrowings in Dollars, entirely of ABR Loans or Fixed Rate Loans and (b) in the case of Borrowings in any other Agreed Currency, entirely of Fixed Rate Loans or RFR Loans, as applicable, in each case of the same Agreed Currency, as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith; provided further that no Revolving Borrowing may be denominated in any currency other than an Agreed Currency. Each Swingline Loan that is denominated in a currency other than Dollars shall be a Fixed Rate Loan and each Swingline Loan that is denominated in Dollars shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Fixed Rate Loan or Set Rate Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

43

(c) Minimum Amounts. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Fixed Rate Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral Dollar Equivalent multiple of US$1,000,000 and not less than US$1,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing and/or RFR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of US$100,000 and not less than US$100,000; provided that an ABR Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire unused balance of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e). Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is a Dollar Equivalent integral multiple of US$250,000 and not less than US$250,000. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of ten Fixed Rate Borrowings or RFR Borrowings outstanding and ten Fixed Rate Swingline Borrowings.

(d) Limitation on Interest Periods. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue, any Fixed Rate Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.

SECTION 2.03. Requests for Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing or Term Borrowing, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a)(i) in the case of a Dollar Fixed Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (ii) in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in any Alternative Currency, not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing, (iii) in the case of an RFR Borrowing denominated in Sterling, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing and (iv) in the case of an RFR Borrowing denominated in Swiss Francs, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request for a Borrowing shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Fixed Rate Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. If no Agreed Currency is specified with respect to any requested Fixed Rate Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected Dollars as the Agreed Currency. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the applicable Class of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Competitive Bid Procedure. (a) Competitive Loans and Requests for Bids. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period the Borrower may request Competitive Bids and may (but shall not have any obligation to) accept Competitive Bids and borrow the loans proposed thereby; provided that the Aggregate Outstanding Credit shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment at any time. To request Competitive Bids, the Borrower shall notify each Revolving Lender of such request by telephone, in the case of a Set Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, four Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing and, in the case of a Variable Rate Borrowing, not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Competitive Bid Request shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent and each Revolving Lender of a written Competitive Bid Request in a form approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(v) the Agreed Currency to be applicable to such Borrowing (provided that Variable Rate Borrowings may only be denominated in Dollars); and

45

(vi) the location and number of the Borrower’s account to which funds are to be disbursed, which shall comply with the requirements of paragraph (d) of this Section.

(b) Submission of Bids. Each Revolving Lender may (but shall not have any obligation to) make one or more Competitive Bids to the Borrower in response to a Competitive Bid Request. Each Competitive Bid by a Revolving Lender must be in a form approved by the Borrower and must be received by the Borrower by facsimile, in the case of a Set Rate Competitive Borrowing, not later than 9:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing, and in the case of a Variable Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 Noon, New York City time, on the proposed date of such Competitive Borrowing. Competitive Bids that do not conform substantially to the form approved by the Borrower may be rejected by the Borrower, and the Borrower shall notify the applicable Revolving Lender as promptly as practicable. Each Competitive Bid shall specify (i) the principal amount of the Competitive Loan or Loans that the Revolving Lender is willing to make and (ii) the Competitive Bid Rate or Competitive Bid Rates at which the Revolving Lender is prepared to make such Loan or Loans (with such Set Rate or any applicable margin included in the calculation of the Variable Rate, expressed as a percentage rate per annum in the form of a decimal to no more than four decimal places).

(c) Acceptance and Rejection of Bids. Subject only to the provisions of this paragraph, the Borrower may accept or reject any Competitive Bid. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent and the Revolving Lenders by telephone, confirmed by facsimile whether and to what extent it has decided to accept or reject each Competitive Bid, in the case of a Fixed Rate Competitive Borrowing, not later than 10:30 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Competitive Borrowing, and in the case of a Variable Rate Borrowing, not later than 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the proposed date of the Competitive Borrowing; provided that (i) the failure of the Borrower to give such notice shall be deemed to be a rejection of each Competitive Bid, (ii) the Borrower shall not accept a Competitive Bid made at a particular Competitive Bid Rate if the Borrower rejects a Competitive Bid made at a lower Competitive Bid Rate, (iii) the aggregate amount of the Competitive Bids accepted by the Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate amount of the requested Competitive Borrowing specified in the related Competitive Bid Request, and (iv) to the extent necessary to comply with clause (iii) above, the Borrower may accept Competitive Bids at the same Competitive Bid Rate in part, which acceptance, in the case of multiple Competitive Bids at such Competitive Bid Rate, shall be made pro rata in accordance with the amount of each such Competitive Bid. A notice given by the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph shall be irrevocable and once notified of the acceptance of its bid under this paragraph, each successful bidder will thereupon become bound, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, to make the Competitive Loan in respect of which its Competitive Bid has been accepted; provided that the obligations of such Revolving Lenders are several and no Revolving Lender shall be responsible for any other Revolving Lender’s failure to make Competitive Loans as required.

(d) Funding of Competitive Bid Loans. Each Revolving Lender that is bound to make a Competitive Loan shall make such Loan on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent will make such Competitive Loan available to the Borrower

46

by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or by wire transfer, automated clearing house debit or interbank transfer to such other account, accounts or Persons designated by the Borrower in the applicable Competitive Bid Request; provided that Competitive Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted to the applicable Issuing Bank.

SECTION 2.05. Swingline Loans. (a) Commitment. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may, but shall not have any obligation to, make advances to the Borrower in the applicable Agreed Currency requested from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in: (i) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit exceeding the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or (ii) any Lender’s Revolving Exposure exceeding such Lender’s Revolving Commitment. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans.

(b) Request for Swingline Borrowings. To request a Dollar Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by facsimile), not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. To request a Swingline Loan denominated in any Alternative Currency, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (confirmed by facsimile), not later than 9:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the date of the proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day), the amount of the requested Swingline Loan, the Agreed Currency with which such Swingline Loan will be denominated and if such Swingline Loan will be a Fixed Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower. If the Swingline Lender elects to make such Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to the general deposit account of the Borrower with the Swingline Lender (or, in the case of a Swingline Loan made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e), by remittance through the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank) by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. With respect to the payment of any amount denominated in Euros, the Swingline Lender shall not be liable to the Borrower or any of the Lenders in any way whatsoever for any delay, or the consequences of any delay, in the crediting to any account of any amount required by this Agreement to be paid by the Swingline Lender in Euros if the Swingline Lender shall have taken all relevant steps to achieve, on the date required by this Agreement, the payment of such amount in Euros and in immediately available, freely transferable, cleared funds to the account with the bank in the principal financial center in the Participating Member State which the Borrower shall have specified for such purpose. “All relevant steps” means all such steps as may be prescribed from time to time by the regulations or operating procedures of such clearing or settlement system as the Swingline Lender may from time to time determine for the purpose of clearing and settling payments of Euros.

(c) Lender Participation in Swingline Loans. The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business

47

Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans then outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate and the Agreed Currency in which such Swingline Loans are denominated. Promptly upon receipt of notice under this paragraph, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, three Business Days after the date of receipt of such notice with respect to Swingline Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency and on the date of the receipt of such notice with respect to Swingline Loans denominated in Dollars, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the amount of the applicable Agreed Currency Swingline Loan or Loans in the currency in which such Loan or Loans is denominated. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of the applicable currency in immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender and shall be made by the Borrower in the currency in which such Loan is denominated. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

SECTION 2.06. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request the issuance of letters of credit denominated in any Agreed Currency for its own account or the account of one of its Subsidiaries, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the Revolving Availability Period. In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrower to, or entered into by the Borrower with, any Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, and shall not issue, any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (i) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (ii) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement.

48

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or facsimile (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the applicable Issuing Bank) to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the Agreed Currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be issued, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension: (i) (x) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by the applicable Issuing Bank at such time plus (y) the aggregate amount of all LC Disbursements made by such Issuing Bank that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower at such time shall not exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment, (ii) the Aggregate Outstanding Credit shall not exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment; (iii) no Lender’s Revolving Exposures shall exceed such Lender’s Revolving Commitment; and (iv) the LC Exposure shall not exceed US$125,000,000; provided, however, that without limiting the foregoing and without affecting the limitations contained herein, it is understood and agreed that the Borrower may from time to time request that an Issuing Bank issue Letters of Credit in excess of its individual Letter of Credit Commitment in effect at the time of such request; provided further that, no Issuing Bank shall have any obligation to issue such Letters of Credit in excess of its individual of Letter of Credit Commitment. Any Letter of Credit so issued by an Issuing Bank in excess of its individual Letter of Credit Commitment then in effect shall nonetheless constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes of this Agreement, and shall not affect the Letter of Credit Commitment of any other Issuing Bank, subject to the limitations on the aggregate LC Exposure set forth in clause (iv) of this Section 2.06(b). The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank with the consent of such Issuing Bank; provided that the Borrower shall not reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above shall not be satisfied.

(c) Expiration Date; Cash Collateralization. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower, each Letter of Credit shall expire at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date up to twenty-four months after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, up to twenty-four months after such renewal or extension) (provided that any Letter of Credit may provide for the renewal thereof for additional up to twenty-four month periods not to extend past the date in clause (ii) below) and (ii) the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Maturity Date; provided that the expiration date of a Letter of Credit may extend beyond

49

the date referenced in clause (ii) above if the Borrower has on the date of its issuance: (A) posted cash collateral to the Administrative Agent in an amount in the applicable currency in which the related Letter of Credit is issued and in immediate available funds equal to the amount of the related LC Exposure plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon (any cash collateral provided to secure any LC Exposure is herein referred to as the “Cash Collateral”) in accordance with Section 2.06(i), (B) delivered a backstop Letter of Credit to the Administrative Agent in such amount or (C) otherwise entered into alternative arrangement with respect to securing the LC Exposure applicable to such Letter of Credit, in each case of clause (A), (B) and (C) preceding on terms reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. If the Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateral pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph (c) with respect to a Letter of Credit, such Cash Collateral (to the extent not applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank as provided in Section 2.06(i) shall be returned to the Borrower after the expiry date applicable to such Letter of Credit (as such date may be extended by any period required by Rule 3.14 of ISP).

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof and on the date hereof with respect to Letters of Credit listed on Schedule 1.01 hereto) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Lenders, the Issuing Bank that issued the Letter of Credit hereby grants to each Revolving Lender, and each Revolving Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing and with respect to each Letter of Credit, each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay in Dollars and immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent amount of each LC Disbursement made by the applicable Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount in the applicable currency in which such Letter of Credit is issued the amount of such LC Disbursement not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on such date, or, if such notice has not been received by the Borrower prior to such time on such date, then not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on (i) the Business Day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is received prior to 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the day of receipt, or (ii) the Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day of receipt; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Sections 2.03, 2.04 or 2.05, as applicable,

50

that such payment be financed with a Borrowing in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Revolving Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent amount thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent in Dollars its Applicable Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent amount of such payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with respect to Loans made by such Revolving Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the applicable Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank, then to such Revolving Lenders and the applicable Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of Borrowings as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement. To the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank in respect to an LC Disbursement, then all payments by the Borrower thereafter with respect to its reimbursement obligations relating to such LC Disbursement shall be in Dollars and in the Dollar Equivalent amount thereof.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 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 and irrespective of: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by an Issuing Bank 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, (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or (v) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or

51

punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the applicable Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction).

(g) Disbursement Procedures. An Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. The applicable Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with paragraph (e) of this Section.

(h) Interim Interest. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full on the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement in full, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement in full when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(f) shall apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be paid to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Revolving Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank shall be for the account of such Revolving Lender to the extent of such payment, and shall be payable on demand or, if no demand has been made, on the date on which the Borrower reimburses the applicable LC Disbursement in full.

(i) Cash Collateralization Upon an Event of Default. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders) demanding the deposit of Cash Collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders, an amount in the currencies in which the related Letters of Credit are issued and in immediate available funds equal to the amount of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to the Borrower described in clauses (e) or (f) of Article VI. Each deposit of Cash Collateral shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and expense, deposits of Cash Collateral shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse

52

the Issuing Banks for LC Disbursements for which they have not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time. If the Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(j) Applicability of ISP and UCP. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued (including any such agreement applicable to an existing Letter of Credit), the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit and the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit.

(k) Replacement of the Issuing Bank. (i) The Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(ii) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Revolving Lenders, in which case, such Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.06(k)(i) above.

(l) Addition of an Issuing Bank. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate as additional Issuing Banks one or more Revolving Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided below; provided, that the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed US$125,000,000. The acceptance by a Revolving Lender of an appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Revolving Lender and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as an issuer of Letters of Credit hereunder.

(m) Issuing Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments

53

and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date and amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which the Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Bank on such day, the date of such failure and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.

(n) LC Exposure Determination. For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms or the terms of any document related thereto, provides for one or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination.

SECTION 2.07. Funding of Borrowings. (a) By the Lenders. Each Lender shall make each Revolving Loan and Term Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m. (or, in the case of ABR Loans, 3:00 p.m.), New York City time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders and in the Agreed Currency requested. The Administrative Agent will make such Revolving Loans or Term Loans available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent or by wire transfer, automated clearing house debit or interbank transfer to such other account, accounts or Persons designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Bank specified by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Borrowings Assumed Made. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed time of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans of the applicable Class, or in the case of Alternative Currencies, in accordance with such market practice, in each case, as applicable. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing.

54

SECTION 2.08. Interest Elections. (a) Interest Options. Each Revolving Borrowing and Term Borrowing initially shall be of the Type and Agreed Currency specified in the applicable Borrowing Request (or, if no Type or Agreed Currency is set forth in such Borrowing Request, designated by Section 2.03) and, in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request or so designated by Section 2.03. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a Borrowing of a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Fixed Rate Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply to Competitive Borrowings or Dollar Swingline Borrowings, which may not be converted or continued.

(b) Interest Election Request. To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or facsimile to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c) Contents of Election Request. Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:

(i) the Agreed Currency and the principal amount of Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing (in the case of Borrowings denominated in Dollars) or a Fixed Rate Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Fixed Rate Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of applicable Class of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing. If any such Interest Election Request requests a Fixed Rate Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period

55

of one month’s duration. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Fixed Rate Borrowing in Dollars prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of such Interest Period. If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely and complete Interest Election Request with respect to a Fixed Rate Borrowing in an Alternative Currency prior to the end of the Interest Period therefor, then, unless such Fixed Rate Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected that such Fixed Rate Borrowing shall automatically be continued as a Fixed Rate Borrowing in its original Agreed Currency with an Interest Period of one month at the end of such Interest Period.

(d) Limitations on Interest Election Requests. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default under clauses (e) or (f) of Article VI has occurred and is continuing with respect to the Borrower, or if any other Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent, at the request of a Majority in Interest of the Lenders of any Class, has notified the Borrower of the election to give effect to this sentence on account of such other Event of Default, then, in each case, so long as such Event of Default is continuing, (i) no outstanding Borrowing (or Borrowing of the applicable Class, as applicable) may be converted to or continued as a Fixed Rate Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, (x) each Dollar denominated Fixed Rate Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (y) each Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Rate; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Fixed Rate Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall either be (A) converted to an ABR Borrowing denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) at the end of the Interest Period, as applicable, therefor or (B) prepaid at the end of the applicable Interest Period, as applicable, in full; provided that if no election is made by the Borrower by the earlier of (x) the date that is three Business Days after receipt by the Borrower of such notice and (y) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Fixed Rate Loan, the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected clause (A) above. A Borrowing denominated in one Agreed Currency may not be converted into another Agreed Currency.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Revolving Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Maturity Date.

(b) The Borrower may at any time terminate, or from time to time permanently reduce, the Commitments of any Class; provided that: (i), unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree otherwise, each partial reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of US$5,000,000 and not less than US$5,000,000 and (ii) the Borrower shall not terminate or reduce the Revolving Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans or Swingline Loans in accordance with Section 2.11, the sum of the Aggregate Outstanding Credit would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment or the Revolving Exposure of any Lender would exceed its Revolving Commitment.

56

(c) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under paragraph (b) of this Section at least three Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable; provided that a notice of termination or reduction of the Revolving Commitments delivered by the Borrower under this paragraph may state that such notice is conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination or reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be permanent. Other than with respect to Competitive Loans, each reduction of the Commitments of any Class shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class.

SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Loans; Amortization of Term Loans; Evidence of Debt. (a) Promise to Repay. The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Incremental Term Loan of such Lender as provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, (iii) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan that is not denominated in Dollars on the Revolving Maturity Date in the applicable Alternative Currency, (iv) to the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Dollar Swingline Loan on the earlier of the Revolving Maturity Date and the first date after such Swingline Loan is made that is the 15th or last day of a calendar month and is at least two Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made (provided that on each date that a Revolving Borrowing or a Dollar Competitive Borrowing is made, the Borrower shall repay all Dollar Swingline Loans that were outstanding on the date such Borrowing was requested and the proceeds of any such Borrowing shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay any Dollar Swingline Loan then outstanding) and (v) with respect to each Competitive Borrowing, to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender that has made the applicable Competitive Borrowing, the then unpaid principal amount of such Competitive Borrowing on it Competitive Loan Maturity Date.

(b) Amortization of Incremental Term Loans. Any prepayment of any Class of Incremental Term Loan Borrowings shall be applied to subsequent scheduled repayments as provided in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment. Prior to any repayment of any Term Borrowings of any Class under this Section, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings of the applicable Class to be repaid and shall notify the Administrative Agent by telephone (confirmed by hand delivery or facsimile) of such selection not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, three Business Days before the scheduled date of such repayment. Each repayment of a Term Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the repaid Term Borrowing. Repayments of Term Borrowings shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the amount repaid.

57

(c) Lender Records. Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder.

(d) Administrative Agent Records. The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type and Class thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto and Agreed Currency applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof.

(e) Records Prima Facie Evidence. The records maintained by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of Loans, LC Disbursements, interest and fees due or accrued hereunder; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such records or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to pay any amounts due hereunder in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(f) Promissory Notes. Any Lender may request that Loans of any Class made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) and in a form approved by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent. Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 8.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.11. Prepayment of Loans. (a) Optional Prepayment. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing (other than Borrowings in Mexican Pesos) in whole or in part, subject to the requirements of this Section.

(b) Mandatory Prepayment; Mark to Market of Agreed Currencies. As of the date of the delivery of each compliance certificate under Section 5.03(c) and as of the date of each Borrowing, each issuance of a Letter of Credit and each reduction of Revolving Commitments, the Borrower shall calculate the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Revolving Exposures and, if applicable, the Dollar Equivalent amount of each Competitive Loan. The Administrative Agent may also at any time and from time to time calculate the Dollar Equivalent amount of the Revolving Exposures and the Competitive Loans. The Administrative Agent shall give the Borrower written notice of any such calculation. If as a result of any such calculation by the Borrower or by the Administrative Agent or if as of any other date the Aggregate Outstanding Credit exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Commitment, then, within five (5) Business Days after the date of such calculation (or in the case of the calculation by the Administrative Agent, after the written notice is given to the Borrower), the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Borrowings, Competitive Borrowings and/or Swingline Borrowings in an aggregate amount equal to such excess, with such amount so paid to be applied to the Loans in the following order, until each is paid in full: Dollar Swingline Loans, ABR Loans, Variable Rate Loans, Fixed Rate Loans and Set Rate Loans.

58

(c) Selection of Borrowings to be Prepaid. Prior to any optional or mandatory prepayment of Borrowings under this Section 2.11, the Borrower shall select the Borrowing or Borrowings to be prepaid and shall specify such selection in the notice of such prepayment pursuant to paragraph (d) of this Section.

(d) Notice of Prepayment. The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender) by telephone (confirmed by facsimile) of any prepayment hereunder (i) in the case of prepayment of a Fixed Rate Borrowing or Set Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, three Business Days before the date of prepayment, (ii) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, any Dollar Swingline Borrowings or any Variable Rate Borrowing, not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the Business Day of prepayment, (iii) in the case of prepayment of an RFR Revolving Borrowing denominated in Sterling, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five Business Days before the date of prepayment and (iv) in the case of prepayment of an RFR Revolving Borrowing denominated in Swiss Francs, not later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time, five Business Days before the date of prepayment. Each such notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid and, in the case of a mandatory prepayment, a reasonably detailed calculation of the amount of such prepayment; provided that (A) if a notice of optional prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Revolving Commitments as contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance with Section 2.09 and (B) a notice of prepayment of Term Borrowings pursuant to paragraph (a) of this Section may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence of one or more events specified therein, in which case such notice of prepayment may be revoked by the Borrower (by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified date of prepayment) if such condition is not satisfied. Promptly following receipt of any such notice (other than a notice relating solely to Swingline Loans), the Administrative Agent shall advise the Lenders of the applicable Class (or with respect to Competitive Borrowings, the applicable Lenders) of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Borrowing (other than a Competitive Borrowing) shall be in an amount that would be permitted in the case of an advance of a Borrowing of the same Class and Type as provided in Section 2.02, except as necessary to apply fully the required amount of a mandatory prepayment. Each prepayment of a Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and any break funding payments required by Section 2.18.

SECTION 2.12. Fees. (a) Commitment Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a commitment fee (the “Revolving Commitment Fee”), which shall accrue at the Applicable Rate on the average daily unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including Effective Date to but excluding the date on which such Revolving Commitment terminates. Accrued Revolving Commitment Fees shall be payable in arrears on the date which is thirty days following the last day of each March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date. All Revolving Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). For purposes of computing Revolving Commitment Fees, a Revolving Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent of the outstanding Revolving Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender (and the Swingline Exposure of such Lender shall be disregarded for such purpose).

59

(b) Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate as interest on Fixed Rate Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s Revolving Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure. Participation fees accrued through and including the last day of March, June, September and December of each year shall be payable on the thirtieth day following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be payable within thirty days after demand. All participation fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank the following fees applicable to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank: (i) a drawing fee equal to US$100 upon each drawing made under such Letters of Credit on the date of such drawing; (ii) an issuance fee equal to US$300 upon each issuance of each such Letter of Credit payable on the date of issuance; (iii) a renewal fee of US$100 upon each renewal of each such Letter of Credit payable prior to the renewal of such Letter of Credit; and (iv) a fronting fee of 0.125% per annum (or such lower amount as may be agreed upon by the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank) on the face amount of each Letter of Credit, which shall be payable quarterly in arrears to such Issuing Bank for its own account on the same date as the participation fee is payable hereunder unless otherwise agreed with the applicable Issuing Bank.

(c) Agent Fees. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed upon between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

(d) Payment of Fees. All fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in Dollars and in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment and participation fees, to the Lenders entitled thereto. Fees paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.13. Interest. (a) ABR Borrowings. The Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate.

(b) Fixed Rate Borrowings. The Loans comprising each Fixed Rate Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan denominated in a currency other than Dollars but excluding each Dollar Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Adjusted Fixed Rate for the Interest Period and Agreed Currency in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.

60

(c) RFR Borrowings. Each RFR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the applicable Daily Simple RFR plus the Applicable Rate.

(d) Dollar Swingline Loans. Dollar Swingline Loans shall bear interest each day at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for an ABR Borrowing.

(e) Competitive Loans. The Loans comprising each Competitive Borrowing shall bear interest at the applicable Competitive Bid Rate accepted for such Borrowing in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.04.

(f) Default Interest. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if any principal of or interest on any Loan or any fee or other amount payable by the Borrower hereunder is not paid when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, such overdue amount shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2.00% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan as provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2.00% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Revolving Loans as provided in paragraph (a) of this Section 2.13.

(g) Payment of Interest. Accrued interest on each Loan shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date for such Loan and, in the case of a Revolving Loan, upon termination of the Revolving Commitments; provided that: (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment of an ABR Revolving Loan or a non-Dollar denominated Swingline Loan prior to the end of the Revolving Availability Period), 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 Fixed 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. Interest on Loans shall be paid in the Agreed Currency of the applicable Loan.

(h) Computation of Interest. All interest hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days, except that (i) interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate and (ii) interest computed by reference to the Daily Simple RFR with respect to Sterling shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year), and in each case shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day; provided that, if a Loan, or a portion thereof, is repaid on the same day on which such Loan is made, one day’s interest shall accrue on the portion of such Loan so prepaid). The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted LIBO Rate, LIBO Rate, Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, EURIBOR Rate, Adjusted CDOR Rate, CDOR Rate, Peso Rate, Daily Simple RFR or Federal Funds Effective Rate shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

61

SECTION 2.14. Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) Subject to clauses (b), (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.14, if:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Fixed Rate Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate, the Adjusted CDOR Rate, the CDOR Rate or the Peso Rate (including because the Relevant Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Daily Simple RFR or RFR for the applicable Agreed Currency; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Fixed Rate Borrowing, the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, the EURIBOR Rate, the Adjusted CDOR Rate, the CDOR Rate or the Peso Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency and such Interest Period or (B) at any time, the applicable Daily Simple RFR or RFR for the applicable Agreed Currency will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for the applicable Agreed Currency;

then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (A) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Revolving Borrowing to, or continuation of any Revolving Borrowing as, a Fixed Rate Borrowing shall be ineffective, (B) if any Borrowing Request requests a Fixed Rate Borrowing in Dollars, such Borrowing shall be made as an ABR Borrowing and (C) if any Borrowing Request requests a Fixed Rate Borrowing or an RFR Borrowing for the relevant rate above in an Alternative Currency, then such request shall be ineffective; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings, then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Fixed Rate Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 2.14(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan or RFR Loan, then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, (i) if such Fixed Rate Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day, (ii) if such Fixed Rate Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Rate; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that

62

the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Fixed Rate Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan, such Fixed Rate Loan denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to be a Fixed Rate Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Fixed Rate Loans denominated in Dollars at such time or (iii) if such RFR Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, then such Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Rate; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, at the Borrower’s election, shall either (A) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (1) or (2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to Dollars for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (3) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” with respect to any Agreed Currency for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document and subject to the proviso below in this paragraph, with respect to a Loan denominated in Dollars, if a Term SOFR Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then the applicable Benchmark Replacement will replace the then-current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document; provided that, this clause (c) shall not be effective unless the Administrative Agent has delivered to the Lenders and the Borrower a Term SOFR Notice. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to deliver a Term SOFR Notice after the occurrence of a Term SOFR Transition Event and may do so in its sole discretion.

63

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

(e) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, an Early Opt-in Election or an Other Benchmark Rate Election, as applicable, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (f) below and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.14.

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

(g) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a Fixed Rate Borrowing or RFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Fixed Rate Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, either (x) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any request for a Fixed Rate Borrowing denominated in Dollars into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans or (y) any Fixed Rate Borrowing or RFR Borrowing denominated in an Alternative Currency shall be ineffective. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of ABR based upon the then-current

64

Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of ABR. Furthermore, if any Fixed Rate Loan or RFR Loan in any Agreed Currency is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement for such Agreed Currency is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.14, (i) if such Fixed Rate Loan is denominated in Dollars, then on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day), such Loan shall be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan denominated in Dollars on such day, (ii) if such Fixed Rate Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, then such Loan shall, on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan (or the next succeeding Business Day if such day is not a Business Day) bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Rate; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected Fixed Rate Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall, at the Borrower’s election prior to such day: (A) be prepaid by the Borrower on such day or (B) solely for the purpose of calculating the interest rate applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan, such Fixed Rate Loan denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars shall be deemed to be a Fixed Rate Loan denominated in Dollars and shall accrue interest at the same interest rate applicable to Fixed Rate Loans denominated in Dollars at such time or (iii) if such RFR Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars, then such Loan shall bear interest at the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency plus the Applicable Rate; provided that, if the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that the Central Bank Rate for the applicable Agreed Currency cannot be determined, any outstanding affected RFR Loans denominated in any Agreed Currency, at the Borrower’s election, shall either (A) be converted into ABR Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or (B) be prepaid in full immediately.

SECTION 2.15. Change in Legality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Fixed Rate Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Fixed Rate Loan (including, without limitation, as a result of a restriction on an Agreed Currency), then, by written notice to the Borrower and to the Administrative Agent, such Lender may:

(a) declare that the applicable Fixed Rate Loans will not thereafter be made by such Lender hereunder, whereupon any request for such a Fixed Rate Borrowing shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for a Dollar Loan (accruing interest as an ABR Loan) unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn (any Lender delivering such a declaration hereby agreeing to withdraw such declaration promptly upon determining that such event of illegality no longer exists); and

(b) require that all outstanding Fixed Rate Loans affected by the illegality made by it be either (A), if such Loans are Dollar Loans, converted to ABR Revolving Loans or Dollar Swingline Loans, in which event all such Fixed Rate Loans shall be automatically converted as of the effective date of such notice as provided below, or (B) repaid if such Fixed Rate Loan is denominated in any Agreed Currency other than Dollars.

65

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under clauses (a) or (b) above of this Section, all payments and prepayments of principal which would otherwise have been applied to repay the affected Fixed Rate Loans that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Fixed Rate Loans of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Fixed Rate Loans. For purposes of this Section, a notice by any Lender shall be effective as to each Fixed Rate Loan, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period currently applicable to such Fixed Rate Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt.

SECTION 2.16. Unavailability of Foreign Currency Loans. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Revolving Lender to make or maintain any Loan denominated in a currency other than Dollars or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any such Loan or in the event that there shall occur any material adverse change in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls which would in the opinion of the Administrative Agent make it impracticable for Loans to be denominated in a currency other than Dollars, then, by written notice to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent may:

(a) declare that such Loans will not thereafter be made, whereupon any request for such a Borrowing in a currency other than Dollars shall be deemed a request for a Dollar Borrowing unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn (the Administrative Agent agreeing to withdraw such declaration promptly upon determining that the applicable event or condition no longer exists); and

(b) require that all outstanding Loans so affected be repaid.

SECTION 2.17. Increased Costs. (a) Additional Costs. If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (including without limitation, any marginal, special, emergency or supplemental reserves established by the Federal Reserve Board or any other reserves imposed pursuant to Regulation D of the Federal Reserve Board) (except any such reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Fixed Rate) or any Issuing Bank;

(ii) impose on any Lender or any Issuing Bank or the London or other interbank market utilized to determine the Adjusted Fixed Rate or any Set Rate any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement, any Fixed Rate Loans or any Set Rate Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or

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

66

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such other Recipient of making, continuing, converting or maintaining any Fixed Rate Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or maintaining any Set Rate Loans or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) Capital Adequacy. If any Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of such Lender or the Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) Certificate. A certificate of a Lender or an Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty days after receipt thereof.

(d) Limit on Compensation. Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or an Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 60 days prior to the date that such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the 60-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. If, following any demand by any Lender or any Issuing Bank under this Section, the item for which such demand was made is changed to reduce or eliminate the effect on the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank, such Lender or Issuing Bank shall promptly so inform the Borrower and equitable reduce any amounts thereafter payable by the Borrower under this Section.

67

SECTION 2.18. Break Funding Payments. With respect to Loans that are not RFR Loans, in the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or an optional or mandatory prepayment of Loans), (b) the payment of any Set Rate Loan other than on the corresponding Competitive Loan Maturity Date, (c) the conversion of any Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto, (d) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Fixed Rate Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(d) and is revoked in accordance therewith), (e) the assignment of any Fixed Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21 or (f) the failure by the Borrower to make any payment of any Loan or drawing under any Letter of Credit (or interest due thereof) denominated in an Alternative Currency on its scheduled due date or any payment thereof in a different currency, then, in any such event, the Borrower shall reimburse each applicable Lender on demand for the loss incurred or to be incurred by such Lender in the reemployment of the funds released by such prepayment. In the case of a Fixed Rate Loan, such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount determined by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (a) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Loan had such event not occurred, at the Adjusted LIBO Rate, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate, the Adjusted CDOR Rate or the Peso Rate, as applicable, that would have been applicable to such Loan, for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Loan), over (b) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for deposits in the applicable Agreed Currency of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the applicable offshore interbank market for such Agreed Currency, whether or not such Fixed Rate Loan was in fact so funded. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within thirty days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.19. Taxes. (a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent having consulted with, or acting under the supervision of, a tax advisor of such Withholding Agent, whether internal or external) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable withholding agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.19) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

68

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.

(c) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.19, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d) Tax Indemnity. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within thirty days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or an Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 2.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Status of Lenders.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably

69

requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.19(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

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

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

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

(2) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, an executed IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

70

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

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

(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

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

71

(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.19 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section 2.19 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.19 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

(i) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Bank and the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.20. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Payments. (a) Payments. The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder or under any other Loan Document (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.17, 2.18 or 2.19, or otherwise) prior to the time expressly required hereunder or under such other Loan Document for such payment (or, if no such time is expressly required, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time), on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without defense, set-off, recoupment or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to such account or accounts as may be specified by the Administrative Agent, except that payments required to be made directly to any Issuing Bank or any Swingline Lender shall be so made and payments pursuant to Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 8.03 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment under any Loan Document shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments under each Loan Document shall be made in Dollars, unless an Alternative Currency is herein specified.

72

(b) Application of Payments. If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of interest and fees then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of interest and fees then due to such parties, and (ii) second, towards payment of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due to such parties.

(c) Sharing of Payments; Limit on Set-off. If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans resulting in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the aggregate amount of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Lender agrees that it will not exercise any right of set-off or counterclaim in an amount in excess of the Loans and other obligations owed directly to such Lender hereunder and in furtherance of the foregoing, any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may not exercise against the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation.

(d) Payments Assumed Made. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or an Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption and in its sole discretion, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

73

SECTION 2.21. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders. (a) Mitigation Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign and delegate its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment and delegation (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Sections 2.17 or 2.19, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment and delegation.

(b) Replacement of a Lender. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.17, or if the Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, or if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender or a Non-consenting Lender (as defined below in this Section), then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 8.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.17 or Section 2.19) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (or, in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a Lender having become a Non-consenting Lender, all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.17 or Section 2.19) and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as a Lender of the applicable Class with respect to which such Lender is a Non-consenting Lender) to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment and delegation); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if a Revolving Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender), which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder (if applicable, in each case only to the extent such amounts relate to its interest as a Lender of a particular Class), from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment and delegation resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.17 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.19, such assignment will result in a reduction in future compensation or payments under the applicable Section. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. In the event that (i) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent have requested the Lenders to consent to a departure or waiver of any provisions of this Agreement or to agree to any other modification thereto, (ii) the consent, waiver or other modification in question requires the agreement of all Lenders and (iii) the Required Lenders have agreed to such consent, waiver or other modification, then any Lender who does not agree to such consent, waiver or other modification shall be deemed a “Non-consenting Lender”. In addition, each Rejecting Revolving Lender (as defined in the definition of the term Revolving Maturity Date) shall be a Non-consenting Lender hereunder.

74

SECTION 2.22. Increase of Revolving Commitments; Incremental Term Loan. (a) Revolving Commitments. By written notice sent to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time and from time to time after the Effective Date request (x) an increase of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments (each such increase, a “Revolving Commitment Increase”) or (y) a new tranche of revolving commitments (the “Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments”) to fund a Limited Condition Transaction, in each case, by an aggregate amount equal to any integral multiple of US$5,000,000; provided that at the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Amendment, (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the sum of, without duplication (A) the total amount of all Commitments and Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments after giving effect to any such increase or effectiveness, plus (B) the initial principal amount of all Term Loans (including any Incremental Term Loans) (after giving effect to any incurrence pursuant to clause (b) below), and in each case giving effect to any repayment or refinancing (or replacement of Commitments) to occur in connection therewith, shall not exceed the Incremental Amount; provided, further that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein, if such Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments have been requested in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, at the Borrower’s option, the condition set forth in clause (i) above shall be tested at the time a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction has been entered into unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment. Other than pricing and fees, the commitments and loans with respect to Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments shall have the same terms as the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans, as the case may be.

(b) Incremental Term Loan. By written notice sent to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time and from time to time after the Effective Date request to add one or more tranches of term loans (the “Incremental Term Loans” and, together with the Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments and Revolving Commitment Increases, the “Incremental Extensions of Credit”) by an aggregate amount equal to any integral multiple of US$5,000,000 on terms and conditions agreed to by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that elects to provide such Incremental Term Loans, each as approved by the Borrower (and, solely to the extent the approval of the Administrative Agent would otherwise be required for an assignment of Term Loans to such Person, the Administrative Agent); provided that at the time of each such request and upon the effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Amendment, (i) no Default shall have occurred and be continuing or shall result therefrom and (ii) the sum of, without duplication (A) the total amount of all Commitments and Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments (in each case, after giving effect to any increase or effectiveness of Incremental Facility Amendment pursuant to clause (a) preceding), plus (B) the initial principal amount of all Term Loans (including any Incremental Term Loans) after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Term Loans, and in each case giving effect to any repayment or refinancing (or replacement of Commitments) to occur in connection therewith, shall not exceed Incremental Amount; provided, further that notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein,

75

if the proceeds of such Incremental Term Loans will be used to finance a Limited Condition Transaction, at the Borrower’s option, the condition set forth in clause (i) above shall be tested at the time a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction has been entered into unless otherwise set forth in the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment. The Incremental Term Loans shall rank pari passu in right of payment in respect of the Revolving Commitments.

(c) Incremental Facility Amendment. Each tranche of Incremental Term Loans and Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments and each Revolving Commitment Increase shall be in an integral multiple of US$5,000,000 and be in an aggregate principal amount that is not less than US$5,000,000; provided that such amount may be less than US$5,000,000 if such amount represents all the remaining availability under the aggregate principal amount of Incremental Extensions of Credit set forth above. Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Extension of Credit. Any additional bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person that elects to extend Incremental Extensions of Credit shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower (and, solely to the extent the approval of the Administrative Agent would otherwise be required for an assignment of the applicable Loans in respect of such Incremental Extension of Credit to such Person, the Administrative Agent) (any such bank, financial institution, existing Lender or other Person being called an “Additional Lender”) and, if not already a Lender, shall become a Lender under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an “Incremental Facility Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, such Additional Lender and the Administrative Agent. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental Extension of Credit, unless it so agrees. Commitments in respect of any Incremental Extensions of Credit shall become Commitments (or in the case of any Revolving Commitment Increase to be provided by an existing Revolving Lender, an increase in such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment) under this Agreement upon the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment. An Incremental Facility Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement or any other Loan Document as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section (including to provide for voting provisions applicable to the Additional Lenders comparable to the provisions of clause (B) of the second proviso of Section 8.02(b)). The effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Amendment shall, unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the Additional Lenders, be subject to the satisfaction on the effective date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (it being understood and agreed that all references to a Borrowing in Section 4.02 shall be deemed to refer to the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment).

(d) Pro-Rata Advances. If all existing Revolving Lenders shall not have provided their pro rata portion of the requested Revolving Commitment Increase, the Revolving Loans will not be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Applicable Percentages determined hereunder. To remedy the foregoing, on the date of the effectiveness of the Incremental Facility Amendment, the Revolving Lenders shall make advances among themselves so that after giving effect thereto the Revolving Loans will be held by the Revolving Lenders, pro rata in accordance with the Applicable Percentages hereunder. The advances so made by each Revolving Lender whose Applicable Percentage has increased as a result of the changes to the Revolving Commitments shall be deemed to be a purchase of a corresponding amount of the Revolving Loans of the Revolving Lender or Revolving Lenders whose Applicable Percentages have decreased. The

76

advances made under this Section shall be Loans of the same Class and Type as those previously held by the Revolving Lender or Revolving Lenders whose Applicable Percentages have decreased unless or until the Borrower shall have selected an alternative interest rate to apply thereto under the terms of this Agreement. All advances made under this Section shall be made through the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 2.23. Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:

(a) Suspension of Revolving Commitment Fees. The Revolving Commitment Fees shall cease to accrue on the unused amount of the Revolving Commitment of such Defaulting Lender;

(b) Suspension of Voting. The Revolving Commitment, the Revolving Exposure, the Term Commitment and the Term Loans of, and the outstanding Competitive Loans held by, such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining whether the Required Lenders or any other requisite Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 8.02), provided that any amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of all Lenders or all Lenders affected thereby shall, except as otherwise provided in Section 8.02, require the consent of such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the terms hereof;

(c) Participation Exposure. If any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) Reallocation. All or any part of such Swingline Exposure (other than (x) any portion thereof with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Section 2.05(c) and (y) the portion of the Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition thereof) and LC Exposure (other than any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements with respect to which such Defaulting Lender shall have funded its participation as contemplated by Sections 2.06(e) and 2.06(f)) of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only (x) to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Exposure to exceed its Applicable Percentage of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments and (y) if the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied at such time; provided that no reallocation under this clause (i) 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;

(ii) Payment and Cash Collateralization. If the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second, provide Cash Collateral to secure such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(i) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;

77

(iii) Suspension of Letter of Credit Fee. If the Borrower cash collateralizes any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to this Section 2.23(c), the Borrower shall not be required to pay participation fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(d) with respect to such portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized by the Borrower;

(iv) if any portion of the LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and 2.12(b) shall be adjusted to give effect to such reallocation; and

(v) Issuing Banks Entitled to Fees. If any Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither cash collateralized nor reallocated pursuant to Section 2.23(c), then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable to the Issuing Banks (and allocated among them ratably based on the amount of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure attributable to letters of Credit issued by each Issuing Bank) until and to the extent such LC Exposure is cash collateralized and/or reallocated;

(d) Suspension of Letters of Credit. So long as any Revolving Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend, renew, extend or increase any Letter of Credit, unless it is satisfied that the related exposure and the Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure will be fully covered by the sum of the non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages of Aggregate Revolving Commitments and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrower in accordance with Section 2.23(c)(i), and the LC Exposure related to any such issued, amended, renewed, extended or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.23(c)(i) (and Defaulting Lenders shall not participate therein); and

(e) Setoff Against Defaulting Lender. Any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.20(c) but excluding Section 2.21(b)) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent (i) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (ii) second, pro rata, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Banks or Swingline Lender hereunder, (iii) third, to the funding of any Loan or the funding or cash collateralization of any participating interest in any Swingline Loan or Letter of Credit 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, (iv) fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender under this Agreement, (v) fifth, pro rata, to the payment of

78

any amounts owing to the Borrower or the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower or any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement and (vi) sixth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if such payment is (x) a prepayment of the principal amount of any Loans or reimbursement obligations in respect of LC Disbursements which a Defaulting Lender has funded its participation obligations and (y) made at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 are satisfied, such payment shall be applied solely to prepay the Loans of, and reimbursement obligations owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata prior to being applied to the prepayment of any Loans, or reimbursement obligations owed to, any Defaulting Lender. 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 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

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

(g) Remedy of Defaulting Lender Status. In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Borrower, the Issuing Banks and the Swingline Lender each agrees that a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Revolving Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of the Revolving Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Revolving Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Revolving Loans in accordance with its Applicable Percentage; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Revolving Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided further that, except as otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from a Defaulting Lender to a non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Revolving Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender. In the event that the Administrative Agent and the Borrower each agrees that a Defaulting Lender that is a Term Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Term Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then on such date such Term Lender shall take such actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be appropriate in connection with such Term Lender ceasing to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such Term Lender was a Defaulting Lender; provided further that, except as otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from a Defaulting Lender to a non-Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Term Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

90

(g) any judgment, writ or warrant of attachment or of any similar process in an uninsured amount in excess of US$100,000,000 in any single proceeding or series of related proceedings shall be entered or filed against the Borrower or any Material Subsidiary or against any property or assets of either and remains unpaid, unvacated, unbonded or unstayed for a period of sixty (60) days (provided that no Lender shall be required to make any Loan and no Issuing Bank shall be required to consider issuing new Letters of Credit or renewing existing Letters of Credit during such sixty (60) day period).

then, and in every such event (other than an event with respect to the Borrower described in clause (e) or (f) of this Article), and at any time thereafter during the continuance of such event, the Administrative Agent may, and at the request of the Required Lenders shall, by notice to the Borrower, take either or both of the following actions, at the same or different times: (i) terminate the Commitments (including the Letter of Credit Commitments), and thereupon all such commitments shall terminate immediately, (ii) declare the Loans then outstanding to be due and payable in whole (or in part, in which case any principal not so declared to be due and payable may thereafter be declared to be due and payable), and thereupon the principal of the Loans so declared to be due and payable, together with accrued interest thereon and all fees and other obligations of the Borrower accrued hereunder, shall become due and payable immediately, without presentment, demand, protest, notice of intent to accelerate, notice of acceleration or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower, and (iii) require Cash Collateral for the LC Exposure in accordance with Section 2.06(i) hereof; and in case of any event

ARTICLE VII

The Administrative Agent

Each of the Lenders and each of the Issuing Banks hereby irrevocably appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the “Administrative Agent” hereunder on its behalf and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

The bank serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender, an Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account thereof to the Lenders, Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender.

The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing, (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise pursuant to a written direction provided to the Administrative Agent by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.02), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion, could exposure the Administrative Agent to liability or be contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, rule or regulation and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 8.02, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan Documents) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, with such absence to be presumed unless otherwise determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgement. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof

92

is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance to the making of such Loan or the issuance, extension, renewal or amendment of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

The Administrative Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents who are appointed by the Administrative Agent and are Affiliates of the Administrative Agent or approved by the Borrower. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided in this paragraph, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent will not be unreasonably withheld), to appoint a successor. If no successor shall have been so appointed and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor,

93

such successor 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 hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 8.03, shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while it was acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that the extensions of credit made hereunder are commercial loans and letters of credit and not investments in a business enterprise or securities. Each Lender further represents that it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any arranger of this credit facility or any amendment thereto or any other Lender and their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement as a Lender, and to make, acquire or hold Loans hereunder. Each Lender shall, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any arranger of this credit facility or any amendment thereto or any other Lender and their respective Related Parties and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder and in deciding whether or to the extent to which it will continue as a lender or assign or otherwise transfer its rights, interests and obligations hereunder.

Certain of the Lenders and/or their Affiliates may have been designated as “co-syndication agents”, “documentation agent”, “joint bookrunners” and “joint lead arrangers” hereunder in recognition of the level of each of their Commitments. No such Lender or Affiliate (other than JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as the Administrative Agent) is an agent for the Lenders or the Borrower and no such Lender nor any such Affiliates (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any obligation hereunder other than those existing in its capacity as a Lender. Without limiting the foregoing, no such Lender nor any of its Affiliates shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with or duty to any Lender or the Borrower.

Each Lender hereby agrees that (a) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect, and (b) to the

94

extent permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Article shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (a) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (b) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

The parties hereto agree that (a) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (b) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any obligations owed by the Borrower; provided that this Section shall not be interpreted to increase (or accelerate the due date for), or have the effect of increasing (or accelerating the due date for), the obligations of the Borrower relative to the amount (and/or timing for payment) of the obligations that would have been payable had such erroneous Payment not been made by the Administrative Agent; provided, further, that for the avoidance of doubt, the immediately preceding clauses (a) and (b) shall not apply to the extent any such erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making a payment.

Each party’s obligations under the three immediately preceding paragraphs of this Article shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.

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

95

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise for purposes of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments or this Agreement,

(ii) the prohibited transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset managers), PTE 95-60 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company general accounts), PTE 90-1 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving insurance company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable so as to exempt from the prohibitions of Section 406 of ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,

(iii) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause, such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

No warranty of any kind, express, implied or statutory, including, without limitation, any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement of third-party rights or freedom from viruses or other code defects, is made by any Agent Party in connection with the Communications or any Electronic System.

SECTION 8.02. Waivers; Amendments. (a) No Waiver. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless

98

the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the execution and delivery of this Agreement, making of a Loan or the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time. No notice or demand on the Borrower in any case shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Amendment. Except as provided in Section 2.14(e), neither this Agreement nor any other Loan Document nor any provision hereof or thereof may be waived, amended or modified except, (x) pursuant to an Incremental Facility Amendment executed in accordance with the terms and conditions of Section 2.22(c) which only needs to be signed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders providing the Incremental Extensions of Credit thereunder if the Incremental Facility Amendment does not increase the aggregate amount of the Commitments and Limited Condition Transaction Revolving Commitments plus the initial principal amount of all Term Loans (including any Incremental Term Loans) to an amount in excess of the Incremental Amount and (y) in any circumstance other than as described in clause (x), pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the Required Lenders or by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall (i) waive any condition set forth in Section 4.02 without the written consent of a Majority in Interest of the Revolving Lenders (it being understood and agreed that any amendment or waiver of, or any consent with respect to, any provision of this Agreement (other than any waiver expressly relating to Section 4.02) or any other Loan Document, including any amendment of any affirmative or negative covenant set forth herein or in any other Loan Document or any waiver of a Default or an Event of Default, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any condition set forth in Section 4.02), (ii) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender, (iii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (iv) postpone the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan (including any payment pursuant to Section 2.10(b)) or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder, or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the written consent of each Lender directly affected thereby, (v) change Section 2.20(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby or change any other provision of this Agreement that provides for the ratable treatment of the Lenders, in each case, without the written consent of each Lender, (vi) subject to clause (C) of the last proviso of this provision, change any of the provisions of this Section, the definition of “Required Lenders”, Section 2.23(b) or any other provision of any Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder or change the definition of “Defaulting Lenders”, without, in each case, the written consent of each Lender (or each Lender of such Class, as the case may be), (vii) change any provisions of this Agreement in a manner that by its terms adversely affects the rights in respect of payments due to Lenders holding Loans of any Class differently than those holding Loans of any other Class, without the written consent of Lenders representing a Majority in Interest of each differently affected Class, (viii) release the Borrower without the written consent of each Lender and (ix) change the definition of “Alternative Currency” without the written consent of each Lender; provided further that, notwithstanding the foregoing or anything to the contrary herein or in any Loan Document:

99

(A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be,

(B) no such agreement shall amend or modify the provisions of Section 2.06 or any letter of credit application and any bilateral agreement between the Borrower and the Issuing Bank regarding the Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment or the respective rights and obligations between the Borrower and the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, respectively,

(C) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may, without the input or consent of the Required Lenders, or any other Lender, effect amendments to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, in connection with the addition or replacement of an Issuing Bank or any increases in an Issuing Bank’s Letter of Credit Commitment; provided that, no such agreement shall adversely alter the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Banks hereunder without the prior written consent of such Administrative Agent and the applicable affected Issuing Bank, as the case may be,

(D) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may jointly amend, modify or supplement this Agreement or any other Loan Document to cure or correct administrative errors or omissions, any ambiguity, mistake, typographical error, omission, defect or inconsistency or to effect administrative changes, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any Lender and such amendment shall become effective without any further consent of any other party to such Loan Document,

(E) any waiver, amendment or other modification of this Agreement that by its terms affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of the Lenders of one or more Classes (but not the Lenders of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by the Borrower and the requisite number or percentage in interest of each affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time,

(F) if the terms of any waiver, amendment or other modification of this Agreement or any other Loan Document provide that any Class of Loans (together with all accrued interest thereon and all accrued fees payable with respect to the Commitments of such Class) will be repaid or paid in full, and the Commitments of such Class (if any) terminated, as a condition to the effectiveness of such waiver,

100

amendment or other modification, then so long as the Loans of such Class (together with such accrued interest and fees) are in fact repaid or paid in full and such Commitments are in fact terminated, in each case prior to or substantially simultaneously with the effectiveness of such amendment, then such Loans and Commitments shall not be included in the determination of the Required Lenders with respect to such amendment, and

(G) this Agreement may be amended to provide for Incremental Extensions of Credit in the manner contemplated by Section 2.22 and the extension of the Revolving Maturity Date as provided in the definition thereof, in each case without any additional consents.

SECTION 8.03. Expenses; Indemnity; Limitation of Liability. (a) Expenses.

(b) Limitation of Liability. The parties hereto agree that (x) in no event shall the Administrative Agent, any Arranger, any Issuing Bank, any Lender, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) or the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any of their respective officers, directors, members, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons and representatives be liable for any Liabilities arising from, or be responsible for, the use by others of information or other materials (including, without limitation, any personal data) obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including an Electronic System or otherwise via the Internet), except to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgement of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such party or its officers, directors, employees, agents, advisors, controlling persons or representatives and (y) no party hereto shall assert, and each such party hereby waives, any Liabilities against any other party hereto, on any theory of liability, for any special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing in this Section 8.03(b) shall relieve the Borrower of any obligation it may have to indemnify an Indemnitee, as provided in Section 8.03(c), for any such damages asserted by an unaffiliated third party. The Borrower agrees, to the extent permitted by law, to not assert any claims against any Lender-Related Person with respect to any of the foregoing.

101

(c) Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Arranger, each Issuing Bank and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) from and against any and all Liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses, joint or several, to which any Indemnitee may become subject:

(i) arising out of or in connection with (A) this Agreement, the Amendment Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, (B) the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (C) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by an Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (D) any actual or alleged presence or release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (E) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration or administrative, judicial or regulatory action or proceeding in any jurisdiction relating to any of the foregoing (including in relation to enforcing the terms of the paragraph immediately above and the terms of this paragraph (c)) (each, a “Proceeding”), regardless of whether based in contract, tort or any other theory, whether commenced by the Borrower, any of its Affiliates or any other Person and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and to reimburse each Indemnitee upon demand for any reasonable and documented out-of-pocket legal or other expenses incurred in connection with investigating or defending any of the foregoing, in each case as such expenses are incurred or paid (which legal expenses shall be limited to one firm of counsel for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if necessary, of a single local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction (which may include a single special counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions) for all such Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional counsel (and, if necessary, one additional local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction) to the affected Indemnitees that are similarly situated, taken as a whole); provided that the foregoing indemnity and expense reimbursement will not, as to any Indemnitee, apply to Liabilities or expenses to the extent they are found by a final, non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction (i) to have resulted from the willful misconduct, bad faith or gross negligence of such Indemnitee or (ii) to have resulted from disputes solely among Indemnitees not involving any act or omission of the Borrower or its Subsidiaries (other than any Proceeding against the Administrative Agent and/or any Arranger solely in its capacity or in fulfilling its role as an Administrative Agent, Arranger, any other agent, a bookrunner or similar role in connection with the Revolving Facility); or

102

(ii) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of the failure to pay any Loan or LC Disbursement denominated in a currency, or any interest thereon, in the currency in which such loan was made or applicable Letter of Credit issued, including, in each such case, any loss or reasonable expense sustained or incurred or to be sustained or incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank (A) in liquidating or employing deposits from third parties, or with respect to Commitments made or Obligations undertaken with third parties, to effect or maintain any Loan or Letter of Credit hereunder or any part thereof, (B) in liquidating or closing out any foreign currency contract, and (C) arising from any change in the value of Dollars in relation to any Loan or LC Disbursement made in another currency.

The Borrower agrees to reimburse each of the Administrative Agent, the Arrangers and their respective affiliates upon demand for all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, due diligence expenses, syndication expenses, travel expenses and reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of counsel) incurred in connection with the Revolving Facility and any related documentation (including this Agreement) or the administration, amendment, modification or waiver thereof.

Each Arranger, the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Issuing Bank agrees to notify the Borrower within fifteen (15) Business Days of engaging counsel or incurring any other expense in defense of any claim that might result in an indemnified liability. This Section 8.03(c) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(d) Lender Reimbursement. Each Lender severally agrees to pay any amount required to be paid by the Borrower under paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 8.03 to the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and each Swingline Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each, an “Agent-Related Person”) (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in effect on the date on which such payment is sought under this Section (or, if such payment is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage immediately prior to such date), and agrees to indemnify and hold each Agent-Related Person harmless from and against any and all Liabilities and related expenses, including the fees, charges and disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person in any way relating to or arising out of the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent-Related Person under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided that the unreimbursed expense or Liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against such Agent-Related Person in its capacity as such; provided further that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such Liabilities, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted primarily from such Agent-Related Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

103

(e) Demand Obligations. All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than thirty days after written demand therefor.

SECTION 8.04. Successors and Assigns. (a) Benefit and Binding Effect. The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender (and any attempted assignment or transfer by the Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of an Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit)), Participants (to the extent provided in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders, any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement.

(b) Assignments.

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

(A) the Borrower, provided that, the Borrower shall be deemed to have consented to an assignment unless it shall have objected thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten Business Days after having received notice thereof; provided that no consent of the Borrower shall be required for an assignment by a Lender: (1) to one of its own Affiliates; (2) if any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, to any other Lender; or (3) if an Event of Default under clauses (a), (e) or (f) of Article VI has occurred and is continuing, to any assignee; and

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

(C) each Issuing Bank, in the case of any assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its LC Exposure; and

(D) each Swingline Lender, in the case of any assignment of all or a portion of a Revolving Commitment or any Lender’s obligations in respect of its Swingline Exposure.

104

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

(A) except in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than US$5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default under clauses (a), (e) or (f) of Article VI has occurred and is continuing;

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

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

(D) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.

For the purposes of this Section 8.04(b), the term “Ineligible Institution” has the following meanings:

“Ineligible Institution” means (a) a natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural person or relative(s) thereof or (d) the Borrower or any of its Affiliates; provided that, such holding company, investment vehicle or trust shall not constitute an Ineligible Institution if it (x) has not been established for the primary purpose of acquiring any Loans or Commitments, (y) is managed by a professional advisor, who is not such natural person or a relative thereof, having significant experience in the business of making or purchasing commercial loans, and (z) has assets greater than US$25,000,000 and a significant part of its activities consist of making or purchasing commercial loans and similar extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business; provided, further, that upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, any Person (other than a Lender) shall be an Ineligible Institution if after giving effect to any proposed assignment to such Person, such Person would hold more than 25% of the then outstanding total Revolving Exposure or Commitments, as the case may be.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the

105

interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 8.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 8.04 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 paragraph (c) of this Section.

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

(v) Upon its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Sections 2.05(c), 2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.20(d) or 8.03(c) or such Lender or assignee is otherwise a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Assumption and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

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

106

Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 8.02(b) that affects such Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) and Proposed Treasury Regulations 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations (or any successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

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

SECTION 8.05. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not expired or terminated. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything else to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that, in connection with the refinancing or repayment in full of the credit facilities provided for herein, an Issuing Bank shall have provided to the Administrative Agent a written consent to the release of the Revolving Lenders from their obligations hereunder with respect to any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (whether as a result of the obligations of the Borrower (and any other account party) in respect of such Letter of Credit having been collateralized in full by a deposit of cash with such

107

Issuing Bank, or being supported by a letter of credit that names such Issuing Bank as the beneficiary thereunder, or otherwise), then from and after such time such Letter of Credit shall cease to be a “Letter of Credit” outstanding hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have no participations in such Letter of Credit, and no obligations with respect thereto, under Section 2.06(d) or 2.06(e). The provisions of Sections 2.17, 2.18, 2.19 and 8.03 and Article VII shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 8.06. Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution. (a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. ORAL AGREEMENTS OR COMMITMENTS TO LOAN MONEY, EXTEND CREDIT OR TO FOREBEAR FROM ENFORCING REPAYMENT OF A DEBT INCLUDING PROMISES TO EXTEND OR RENEW SUCH DEBT ARE NOT ENFORCEABLE. TO PROTECT THE BORROWER, THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, THE SWINGLINE LENDER, EACH ISSUING BANK AND EACH LENDER FROM MISUNDERSTANDING OR DISAPPOINTMENT, ANY AGREEMENTS REACHED COVERING SUCH MATTERS ARE CONTAINED IN THIS WRITING, THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS AND ANY SEPARATE LETTER AGREEMENTS WITH RESPECT TO FEES PAYABLE TO THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT WHICH ARE THE COMPLETE AND EXCLUSIVE STATEMENT OF THE AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE PARTIES, EXCEPT AS THEY MAY LATER AGREE IN WRITING TO MODIFY IT. This Agreement, the Amendment Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to (i) fees payable to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the reductions of the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof.

(b) Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) the Amendment Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 8.01), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf., DocuSign or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf., DocuSign or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the

108

foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf., DocuSign or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (B) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim against any Lender-Related Person for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf., DocuSign or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrower to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

SECTION 8.07. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 8.08. Governing Law.

(a) This Agreement and any claim, controversy, dispute or cause of action (whether in contract or tort or otherwise) based upon, arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the law of the State of New York.

(b) The Borrower irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that it will not commence any action, litigation or proceeding of any kind or description, whether in law or equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, against the Administrative Agent, any Lender, or any Related Party of any of the foregoing in any way relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the transactions relating hereto or thereto, in any forum other than the courts of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York and of the State of New York

109

sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, and each of the parties hereto irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the jurisdiction of such courts and agrees that all claims in respect of any action, litigation or proceeding may be heard and determined, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, in such Federal court or in such New York State court. Each party hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action, litigation or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank may otherwise have to bring any action, litigation or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against the Borrower or any of its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(c) The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any action, litigation or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 8.01. Nothing in this Agreement or any other Loan Document will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 8.09. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL PROCEEDING DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, ANY OTHER LOAN DOCUMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR ANY OTHER THEORY). EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 8.10. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and shall not affect the construction of, or be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 8.11. Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its and its Affiliates’ directors, officers, employees and agents, including accountants, legal counsel and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and instructed to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent requested by any regulatory authority, (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, (d) to any other party to this Agreement, (e) in connection with

110

the exercise of any remedies hereunder or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement or (ii) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, (g) with the consent of the Borrower or (h) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other the Borrower. For the purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower relating to the Borrower or its business, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower and other than information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry; provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.

SECTION 8.12. Maximum Interest Rate. (a) No interest rate specified in any Loan Document shall at any time exceed the Maximum Rate. If at any time the interest rate (the “Contract Rate”) for any obligation under the Loan Documents shall exceed the Maximum Rate, thereby causing the interest accruing on such obligation to be limited to the Maximum Rate, then any subsequent reduction in the Contract Rate for such obligation shall not reduce the rate of interest on such obligation below the Maximum Rate until the aggregate amount of interest accrued on such obligation equals the aggregate amount of interest which would have accrued on such obligation if the Contract Rate for such obligation had at all times been in effect. As used herein, the term “Maximum Rate” means, at any time with respect to any Lender, the maximum rate of nonusurious interest under applicable law that such Lender may charge Borrower. The Maximum Rate shall be calculated in a manner that takes into account any and all fees, payments, and other charges contracted for, charged, or received in connection with the Loan Documents that constitute interest under applicable law. Each change in any interest rate provided for herein based upon the Maximum Rate resulting from a change in the Maximum Rate shall take effect without notice to Borrower at the time of such change in the Maximum Rate.

(b) No provision of any Loan Document shall require the payment or the collection of interest in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. If any excess of interest in such respect is hereby provided for, or shall be adjudicated to be so provided, in any Loan Document or otherwise in connection with this loan transaction, the provisions of this Section shall govern and prevail and neither Borrower nor the sureties, guarantors, successors, or assigns of Borrower shall be obligated to pay the excess amount of such interest or any other excess sum paid for the use, forbearance, or detention of sums loaned pursuant hereto. In the event any Lender ever receives, collects, or applies as interest any such sum, such amount which would be in excess of the maximum amount permitted by applicable law shall be applied as a payment and reduction of the principal of the obligations outstanding hereunder, and, if the principal of the obligations outstanding hereunder has been paid in full, any remaining excess shall forthwith be paid to the Borrower.

111

SECTION 8.13. USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (the “Patriot Act”) and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent to identify the Borrower in accordance with the Patriot Act.

SECTION 8.14. Recording of Conversations. Each Issuing Bank may electronically record telephone conversations between itself and the Borrower solely for the limited purpose of establishing the terms and conditions regarding each Letter of Credit and each party agrees that such recordings may be submitted in evidence to a court or in a proceeding only when the terms of a Letter of Credit are at issue.

SECTION 8.15. Issuing Bank Funds. Each Issuing Bank agrees that any payments under the Letters of Credit issued by it will be made with the Issuing Bank’s own funds and not with funds of the Borrower; in no event shall any such payment be made from or in reliance upon funds of any other Person. The Borrower’s reimbursement obligations under Section 2.06(e) shall not arise with respect to a Letter of Credit until payment has actually been made by the Issuing Bank in connection with the drawing or demand for payment under the Letter of Credit.

SECTION 8.16. Payment of Agreed Currency. This is a loan transaction in which the specification of the applicable Agreed Currency is of the essence, and the stipulated currency shall in each instance be the currency of account and payment in all instances. A payment obligation in one currency hereunder (the “Original Currency”) shall not be discharged by an amount paid in another currency (the “Other Currency”), whether pursuant to any judgment expressed in or converted into any Other Currency or in another place except to the extent that such tender or recovery results in the effective receipt by a party hereto of the full amount of the Original Currency payable to such party. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender under any Loan Document (in this Section 8.16 called an “Entitled Person”) shall be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by such Entitled Person of any sum due hereunder in the Other Currency such Entitled Person may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Original Currency with the amount of the Other Currency; and the Borrower, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, agrees to indemnify such Entitled Person against, and to pay such Entitled Person on demand, in the Original Currency, the amount (if any) by which the sum originally due to such Entitled Person in the Original Currency hereunder exceeds the amount of the Other Currency so purchased.

SECTION 8.17. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document may be subject to the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

112

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

(b) the effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

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

SECTION 8.18. Amendment and Restatement. This Agreement constitutes an amendment and restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement and as such, except for the Indebtedness and other than obligations provided for in the Existing Credit Agreement (which Indebtedness and obligations shall survive and be renewed and restated by the terms of this Agreement), all terms and provisions of this Agreement supersede in their entirety the terms and provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety. This Agreement is not intended as and shall not be construed as a release or novation of any obligation. Any commitment of any Lender that it has to the Borrower under the terms of any other letter of credit reimbursement agreement in effect on the Effective Date is not terminated and shall continue in accordance with the terms of the applicable reimbursement agreement.

SECTION 8.19. No Fiduciary Duty, etc. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to the Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transaction contemplated therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, the Borrower or any other person. The Borrower agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no Credit Party is advising the Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction. The Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation and appraisal of the transactions contemplated hereby, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility or liability to the Borrower with respect thereto.

113

The Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with its affiliates, is a full service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, the Borrower and other companies with which the Borrower may have commercial or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers, all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the rights, in its sole discretion.

In addition, the Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies in respect of which the Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party will use confidential information obtained from the Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its other relationships with the Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. The Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to the Borrower, confidential information obtained from other companies.

SECTION 8.20. Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States).

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan

114

Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

This Certificate (this “Certificate”) is being delivered pursuant to Section 5(g) of the Amendment Agreement, dated as of September 30, 2021 (the “Amendment”), relating to the Third Amended And Restated Credit Agreement dated as of December 12, 2018 (as amended by Amendment No. 1 dated May 6, 2020, and as further amended, amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified prior to the date hereof, the “Existing Credit Agreement”), among Leggett & Platt, Incorporated, a Missouri corporation (the “Company”), the Lenders from time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, pursuant to which the Existing Credit Agreement is thereby amended and restated (as so amended and restated, the “Amended and Restated Credit Agreement”). Unless otherwise defined herein, terms used herein have the meanings provided in the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

The undersigned hereby certifies that [he][she] is the Chief Financial Officer of the Company and that [he][she] is knowledgeable of the financial and accounting matters of the Company and its Subsidiaries and that, as such, [he][she] is authorized to execute and deliver this Certificate on behalf of the Company.

The undersigned hereby further certifies, solely in [his][her] capacity as Chief Financial Officer of the Company and not in an individual capacity and without personal liability, that, on the date hereof, immediately after giving effect to the Transactions to occur on the Effective Date:

1. The fair value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries (on a going concern basis), on a consolidated basis, will exceed their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise.

2. The present fair saleable value of the property of the Company and its Subsidiaries (on a going concern basis), on a consolidated basis, will be greater than the amount that will be required to pay the probable liabilities on their debts and other liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and other liabilities become absolute and matured.

3. The Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will be able to pay their debts and liabilities, subordinated, contingent or otherwise, as such debts and liabilities become absolute and matured.

4. The Company and its Subsidiaries, on a consolidated basis, will not have an unreasonably small capital with which to conduct the businesses in which they are engaged as such businesses are now conducted and proposed to be conducted following the date hereof.

In computing the amount of the contingent liabilities of the Company and its Subsidiaries as of the date hereof, such liabilities have been computed at the amount that, in light of all the facts and circumstances existing as of the date hereof, represents the amount that can reasonably be expected to become an actual or matured liability.
