CORNERSTONE BUILDING BRANDS, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
July 2, 2022
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1 — RECENT DEVELOPMENTS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, unless otherwise indicated, the “Company,” “Cornerstone Building Brands,” “we,” “us” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited consolidated financial statements included herein contain all adjustments, which consist of normal recurring adjustments, necessary to fairly present the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods indicated. Operating results for the period from January 1, 2022 through July 2, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.
For additional information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 1, 2022.
Recent Developments
On July 25, 2022, the Company, Camelot Return Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Parent”) and Camelot Return Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) completed the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 5, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub. Parent and Merger Sub are subsidiaries of investment funds managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “CD&R Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a subsidiary of Parent (the “Surviving Corporation”). Prior to the completion of the CD&R Merger, CD&R and its affiliates collectively owned approximately 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Company common stock”). As a result of the CD&R Merger, investment funds managed by CD&R became the indirect owners of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock that CD&R did not already own. With the completion of the CD&R Merger, shares of Company common stock were removed from trading on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) and we became a privately held company.
Reporting Periods
The Company’s fiscal quarters are based on a four-four-five week calendar with periods ending on the Saturday of the last week in the quarter except that December 31st will always be the year-end date. Therefore, the financial results of certain fiscal quarters may not be comparable to prior fiscal quarters.

Accounts Receivable and Related Allowance
The Company reports accounts receivable net of an allowance for expected credit losses. Trade accounts receivable are the result of sales of vinyl windows, aluminum windows, vinyl siding, metal siding, injection molded products, metal building products, metal coating, and other products and services to customers throughout the United States and Canada and affiliated territories, including international builders who resell to end users. Sales are primarily denominated in U.S. dollars. Credit sales do not normally require a pledge of collateral; however, various types of liens may be filed to enhance the collection process and we require payment prior to shipment for certain international shipments.
The Company establishes provisions for expected credit losses based on the Company’s assessment of the collectability of amounts owed to us by our customers. Such provisions are included in selling, general and administrative expenses. In establishing these reserves, the Company considers changes in the financial position of a customer, age of the accounts receivable balances, availability of security, unusual macroeconomic conditions, lien rights and bond rights as well as disputes, if any, with our customers. Our allowance for credit losses reflects reserves for customer receivables to reduce receivables to amounts expected to be collected. Interest on delinquent accounts receivable is included in the trade accounts receivable balance and recognized as interest income when earned and collectability is reasonably assured. Uncollectible accounts are written off when a settlement is reached for an amount that is less than the outstanding historical balance, all collection efforts have been exhausted, and/or any legal action taken by the Company has concluded.
The following table represents the rollforward of the allowance for credit losses for the periods indicated (in thousands):

(2)Represents the allowance for credit losses related to the Company’s coil coatings business which was divested on June 28, 2022.
Net Sales
The Company enters into contracts that pertain to products, which are accounted for as separate performance obligations and are typically one year or less in duration. Given the nature of the Company's sales arrangements, we are not required to exercise significant judgment in determining the timing for the satisfaction of performance obligations or the transaction price. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration expected to be received in exchange for our products. Revenue is generally recognized when the product has shipped from the Company’s facility and control has transferred to the customer. For certain products, it is industry practice that customers take title to products upon delivery, at which time revenue is then recognized by the Company. Allowances for cash discounts, volume rebates and other customer incentive programs, as well as gross customer returns, among others, are recorded as a reduction of sales at the time of sale based upon the estimated future outcome. Cash discounts, volume rebates and other customer incentive programs are based upon certain percentages agreed upon with the Company’s various customers, which are typically earned by the customer over an annual period.
8


The Company’s revenues are adjusted for variable consideration, which includes customer volume rebates and prompt payment discounts. The Company measures variable consideration by estimating expected outcomes using analysis and inputs based upon anticipated performance, historical data, and current and forecasted information. Customer returns are recorded as a reduction to sales on an actual basis throughout the year and also include an estimate at the end of each reporting period for future customer returns related to sales recorded prior to the end of the period. The Company generally estimates customer returns based upon the time lag that historically occurs between the sale date and the return date, while also factoring in any new business conditions that might impact the historical analysis such as new product introduction. Measurement of variable consideration is reviewed by management periodically and revenue is adjusted accordingly. The Company does not have significant financing components. The Company recognizes installation revenue, primarily within the stone veneer business, over the period for which the stone is installed, which is typically a very short duration.
Shipping and handling activities performed by the Company are considered activities to fulfill the sales of our products. Amounts billed for shipping and handling are included in net sales, while costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of sales.
In accordance with certain contractual arrangements, the Company receives payment from our customers in advance related to performance obligations that are to be satisfied in the future and recognizes such payments as deferred revenue, primarily related to the Company’s weathertightness warranties (see Note 13 — Warranty).
A portion of the Company’s revenue, exclusively within the Commercial segment, includes multiple-element revenue arrangements due to multiple deliverables. Each deliverable is generally determined based on customer-specific manufacturing and delivery requirements. Because the separate deliverables have value to the customer on a stand-alone basis, they are typically considered separate units of accounting. A portion of the entire job order value is allocated to each unit of accounting. Revenue allocated to each deliverable is recognized upon shipment. The Company uses estimated selling price (“ESP”) based on underlying cost plus a reasonable margin to determine how to separate multiple-element revenue arrangements into separate units of accounting, and how to allocate the arrangement consideration among those separate units of accounting. The Company determines ESP based on normal pricing and discounting practices.

NOTE 2 — ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional guidance to ease the potential burden in accounting for reference rate reform on financial reporting. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope, which clarifies that certain optional expedients and exceptions in Topic 848 for contract modifications and hedge accounting apply to derivatives that are affected by the reference rate transition. The amendments in these ASUs are elective, apply to all entities that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of rate reform, and may be adopted as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022. The Company is evaluating the impact of electing to apply the amendments.
10


In October 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which requires the recognition and measurement of contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in a business combination in accordance with ASC 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers. This creates an exception to the general recognition and measurement principles in ASC 805. The Company will be required to adopt this guidance in the annual and interim periods for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2023, with early adoption permitted. The amendments in this ASU should be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company does not anticipate that the adoption of this guidance will have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements.
NOTE 3 — ACQUISITIONS
Union Corrugating Company Holdings, Inc.
On December 3, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of 100% of the issued and outstanding common stock of Union Corrugating Company Holdings, Inc. (“UCC”) for a purchase price of $214.2 million, including a post-closing adjustment of $2.6 million that was finalized in the first quarter of 2022. UCC is a leading provider of residential metal roofing, metal buildings, and roofing components. The addition of UCC advances our growth strategy by expanding our offering to customers in the high growth metal roofing market. This acquisition was funded through cash available on the balance sheet. The Company reports UCC results within the Commercial segment.

The Company preliminarily determined the fair value of the tangible and intangible assets and the liabilities acquired, and recorded goodwill based on the excess of the fair value of the acquisition consideration over such fair values, as follows (in thousands):
Assets acquired:
Cash$19,594 
Accounts receivable20,821

Net assets acquired$214,199 
The $137.9 million of preliminary goodwill was allocated to the Commercial segment. Goodwill from this acquisition is not deductible for tax purposes. The goodwill is primarily attributable to the synergies expected to be realized.
Due to the recent closing of the UCC transaction, the purchase price allocation is preliminary and will be finalized when valuations are complete and final assessment of the fair value of acquired assets and assumed liabilities are completed. There can be no assurance that such finalization will not result in material changes from the preliminary purchase price allocation. The Company’s estimates and assumptions are subject to change during the measurement period (up to one year from the acquisition date) as the Company finalizes the valuations of accounts receivable, other receivables, inventories, prepaid expenses and other current assets, property, plant and equipment, lease right of use assets, goodwill, intangible assets, other assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses, other current liabilities, other long-term liabilities, lease liabilities, and deferred income taxes.
Cascade Windows
On August 20, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Cascade Windows, Inc. (“Cascade Windows”) for $237.7 million in cash, including a post-closing adjustment of $1.8 million that was finalized in the first quarter of 2022. Cascade Windows serves the residential new construction and repair and remodel markets with energy efficient vinyl window and door products from various manufacturing facilities in the United States, expanding our manufacturing capabilities and creating new opportunities for us in the Western United States. This acquisition was funded through cash available on the balance sheet. The Company reports Cascade Windows’ results within the Windows segment.

NOTE 4 — DIVESTITURES
On June 28, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the coil coatings business to BlueScope Steel Limited for initial cash proceeds of $500.0 million, subject to working capital and other customary adjustments. In connection with the transaction, the Company entered into long-term supply agreements to secure a continued supply of light gauge coil coating and painted hot roll steel. For the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company recognized a pre-tax gain of $394.2 million for the coil coatings divestiture, which is included in gain on divestitures in the consolidated statements of operations. The Company incurred $8.6 million and $9.6 million of divestiture-related costs for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, which are recorded in strategic development and acquisition related costs in the Company’s consolidated statements of operations. The divested business did not represent a strategic shift that has a major effect on our operations and financial results, and, as such, it was not presented as discontinued operations. The coil coatings business results prior to the sale are reported within the Commercial segment.
During the three months ended July 2, 2022, the Company received additional cash proceeds of $7.2 million as a settlement of working capital related to the 2021 sale of the IMP business. These proceeds were recognized in gain on divestitures in the consolidated statements of operations.
NOTE 5 — RESTRUCTURING
The Company has various initiatives and programs in place within its business units to reduce selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) and manufacturing costs and to optimize the Company’s manufacturing footprint. During the six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company incurred restructuring charges (gains) of $0.7 million, $0.5 million and $(2.2) million in the Windows, Siding and Commercial segments, respectively, and $0.1 million in restructuring charges at Corporate headquarters. Net restructuring charges incurred to date since the current restructuring initiatives began in 2019 are $77.7 million. The following table summarizes the costs related to those restructuring plans for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 and costs incurred to date since inception of those initiatives and programs (in thousands):

2026191,645 
NOTE 9 — ASSETS HELD FOR SALE
The Company records assets held for sale at the lower of the carrying value or fair value less costs to sell. The following criteria are used to determine if property is held for sale: (i) management has the authority and commits to a plan to sell the property; (ii) the property is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (iii) there is an active program to locate a buyer and the plan to sell the property has been initiated; (iv) the sale of the property is probable within one year; (v) the property is being actively marketed at a reasonable sale price relative to its current fair value; and (vi) it is unlikely that the plan to sell will be withdrawn or that significant changes to the plan will be made.
In determining the fair value of the assets less costs to sell, the Company considers factors including current sales prices for comparable assets in the area, recent market analysis studies, appraisals and any recent legitimate offers. If the estimated fair value less costs to sell of an asset is less than its current carrying value, the asset is written down to its estimated fair value less costs to sell. Our assumptions about property sales prices require significant judgment because the current market is highly sensitive to changes in economic conditions. We determined the estimated fair values of real property assets held for sale based on current market conditions and assumptions made by management, which may differ from actual results and may result in impairments if market conditions deteriorate. During the second quarter of 2022, the Company sold the assets held for sale at December 31, 2021 which had a carrying value of $3.4 million and received $6.1 million in proceeds, resulting in a gain on sales of $2.7 million. The gain on sales is included in restructuring and impairment, net in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022. There were no remaining assets held for sale as of July 2, 2022.
NOTE 10 — LEASES
The Company has leases for certain office, manufacturing, warehouse and distribution locations, and vehicles and equipment, including fleet vehicles. Many of these leases have options to terminate prior to or extend beyond the end of the term. The exercise of the majority of lease renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. Some lease agreements have variable payments, the majority of which are real estate agreements in which future increases in rent are based on an index. Our lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. The Company
16


accounts for lease and non-lease components as a single lease component for all leases other than leases of durable tooling. The Company has elected to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from the consolidated balance sheets and recognizes related lease payments in the consolidated statements of operations on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
Operating lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the reasonably expected holding period at the commencement date of the leases. Few of the Company’s lease contracts provide a readily determinable implicit rate. As such, an estimated incremental borrowing rate (“IBR”) is utilized, based on information available at the inception of the lease. The incremental borrowing rate represents an estimate of the interest rate we would incur at lease commencement to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments on a collateralized basis over the term of the lease.
Accounting for leases requires judgment, including determining whether a contract contains a lease, the incremental borrowing rates to utilize for leases without a stated implicit rate, the reasonably certain holding period for a leased asset, and the allocation of consideration to lease and non-lease components. The allocation of the lease and non-lease components for durable tooling is based on the Company’s best estimate of standalone price.

NOTE 11 — SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION
Our 2003 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the “2003 Incentive Plan”), was an equity-based compensation plan that allowed us to grant a variety of types of awards, including stock options, restricted stock awards, stock appreciation rights, cash awards, phantom stock awards, restricted stock unit awards (“RSUs”) and long-term incentive awards with performance conditions (“performance share units” or “PSUs”). Awards were generally granted once per year, with the amounts and types of awards determined by the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors (the “Committee”). In connection with the Merger (as defined herein) with Ply Gem Parent, LLC (“Ply Gem”), on November 16, 2018, awards were granted to certain senior executives and key employees (the “Founders Awards”), which included stock options, RSUs, and PSUs. A portion of the Founders Awards was not granted under the 2003 Incentive Plan but was instead granted pursuant to a separate equity-based compensation plan, the Long-Term Incentive Plan. These Founders Awards were subject to award agreements with the same terms and provisions as awards of the same type granted under the 2003 Incentive Plan.
As of July 2, 2022, and for all periods presented, the Founders Awards and our share-based awards granted under the 2003 Incentive Plan consisted of RSUs, PSUs and stock options, none of which could be settled through cash payments. Both our stock options and restricted stock awards were subject only to vesting requirements based on continued employment through the end of a specified time period and typically vest in annual increments over three to five years or earlier upon death, disability or a change in control. As a general rule, stock option awards expired on the earlier of (i) 10 years from the date of grant, (ii) 60 days after termination of employment or service for a reason other than death, disability or retirement, or (iii) 180 days after death, disability or retirement. Awards were non-transferable except by disposition on death or to certain family members, trusts and other family entities as the Committee may approve.
Our time-based restricted stock awards were typically subject to graded vesting over a service period, which was three to five years. Our performance-based and market-based restricted stock awards were typically subject to cliff vesting at the end of the service period, which was typically three years. Our share-based compensation arrangements were equity classified and we recognized compensation cost for these awards on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each award grant. In the case of performance-based awards, expense was recognized based upon management’s assessment of the probability that
18


such performance conditions would be achieved. Certain of our awards provided for accelerated vesting upon a change of control or upon termination without cause or for good reason.
Vesting of the PSUs granted under the 2003 Incentive Plan during the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021 were contingent upon achievement of a cumulative three-year EBITDA growth target with an additional modifier based on total stockholders return. The grant-date fair value of the PSUs granted during the six months ended July 3, 2021 was determined by Monte Carlo simulation.
Stock option awards
During the six months ended July 2, 2022, there were 0.1 million options exercised with an intrinsic value of $1.7 million and cash received from the options exercised was $1.4 million. During the six months ended July 3, 2021, there were 0.1 million options exercised with an intrinsic value of $0.7 million and cash received from the options exercised was $1.5 million.
Restricted stock units
Annual awards to our key employees generally have a three-year performance period. The fair value of RSUs awarded is based on the Company’s stock price as of the date of grant. During the six months ended July 2, 2022, we granted RSUs to certain key employees with a fair value of $1.7 million representing 0.1 million shares. During the six months ended July 3, 2021, we granted RSUs to key employees with a fair value of $11.6 million, representing 0.8 million shares.
Share-based compensation expense
During the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, we recorded share-based compensation expense for all awards of $4.7 million and $16.2 million, respectively. During the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, we recorded share-based compensation expense for all awards of $5.3 million and $8.6 million, respectively.
Impact of CD&R Merger
As a result of the CD&R Merger, each outstanding and vested stock option was cancelled and converted into the right to receive an amount in cash equal to the product of (x) the excess, if any, of $24.65 per share (the “CD&R Merger Consideration”) over the exercise price per share of such stock option and (y) the number of shares of Company common stock subject to such stock option. Each outstanding and unvested stock option was cancelled and converted into a contingent contractual right to receive a payment in cash from the Company equal to the product of (x) the excess, if any, of the CD&R Merger Consideration over the exercise price per share of such stock option and (y) the number of shares of Company common stock subject to such stock option, and such resulting cash-based awards are subject to the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the corresponding stock option (including time-based vesting conditions but excluding provisions related to exercise).
As a result of the CD&R Merger, each outstanding RSU was cancelled and converted into the contractual right to receive a cash payment from the Company equal to the product of (x) the number of shares of Company common stock subject to such RSU and (y) the CD&R Merger Consideration, and such resulting cash-based awards are subject to the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the corresponding RSU (including time-based vesting conditions).
As a result of the CD&R Merger, each outstanding PSU (i) granted during the 2020 calendar year (each, a “2020 Company PSU Award”) or (ii) granted during the 2021 calendar year to the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or the Chief Executive Officer’s direct reports (each, a “2021 Company Executive PSU Award”), was cancelled and converted into a contingent contractual right to receive a cash payment from the Company equal to the product of (x) the number of PSUs earned under the terms of the applicable award agreement, but with the applicable total shareholder return metric determined using a per share price equal to the CD&R Merger Consideration and the EBITDA-based metric determined based on actual performance as of the end of the performance period applicable to such PSU and (y) the CD&R Merger Consideration, with the resulting cash-based awards subject to the same terms and conditions as are applicable to the corresponding 2020 Company PSU Award or 2021 Company Executive PSU Award (including time-based vesting conditions and EBITDA-based vesting conditions, but excluding any vesting conditions based on total shareholder return). In addition, as a result of the CD&R Merger, each outstanding PSU granted during the 2021 calendar year that was not a 2021 Company Executive PSU Award was cancelled and converted into a contingent contractual right to receive a cash payment from the Company equal to the product of (x) the number of PSUs earned under the terms of the applicable award agreement, but with the applicable total shareholder return determined using a per share price equal to the CD&R Merger Consideration and the EBITDA-based metric in the applicable award agreement deemed achieved at target performance and determined without proration for any portion of the performance period that has not yet been completed, and (y) the CD&R Merger Consideration.

(1)Represents securities not included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
We calculate earnings per share using the “two-class” method, whereby unvested share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or dividend equivalents are “participating securities” and, therefore, these participating securities are treated as a separate class in computing earnings per share. The calculation of earnings per share presented here excludes the income attributable to unvested restricted stock units from the numerator and excludes the dilutive impact of those shares from the denominator. Awards subject to the achievement of performance conditions or market conditions for which such conditions had been met at the end of any of the fiscal periods presented are included in the computation of diluted earnings per common share if their effect was dilutive.
NOTE 13 — WARRANTY
The Company offers a number of warranties associated with the products it sells. The specific terms and conditions of these warranties vary depending on the product sold. The Company’s warranty liabilities are undiscounted and adjusted for inflation based on third party actuarial estimates. Factors that affect the Company’s warranty liabilities include the number of units sold, historical and anticipated rates of warranty claims, cost per claim and new product introduction. Warranties are normally limited to replacement or service of defective components for the original customer. Some warranties are transferable to subsequent owners and are generally limited to ten years from the date of manufacture or require pro-rata payments from the customer. A provision for estimated warranty costs is recorded based on historical experience and the Company periodically adjusts these provisions to reflect actual experience. Warranty costs are included within cost of goods sold. The Company assesses the adequacy of the recorded warranty claims and adjusts the amounts as necessary. Separately, upon the sale of a weathertightness warranty in the Commercial segment, the Company records the resulting revenue as deferred revenue, which is included in other accrued expenses and other long-term liabilities on the consolidated balance sheets depending on when the revenues are expected to be recognized.

NOTE 14 — DEFINED BENEFIT PLANS
RCC Pension Plan — With the acquisition of Robertson-Ceco II Corporation (“RCC”) on April 7, 2006, the Company assumed a defined benefit plan (the “RCC Pension Plan”). Benefits under the RCC Pension Plan are primarily based on years of service and the employee’s compensation. The RCC Pension Plan is frozen and, therefore, employees do not accrue additional service benefits. Plan assets of the RCC Pension Plan are invested in broadly diversified portfolios of government obligations, mutual funds, stocks, bonds and fixed income securities.
Coil Coatings Benefit Plans — On January 16, 2015, as part of an acquired business, the Company assumed noncontributory defined benefit plans that covered certain hourly employees (the “Coil Coatings Benefit Plans”) and a postretirement medical and life insurance plan that covered certain of its employees and their spouses (the “OPEB Plan”). On June 28, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the coil coatings business as described in Note 4 — Divestitures, which included the transfer of the Coil Coatings Benefit Plans and the OPEB Plan to the purchaser of the coil coatings business.
Ply Gem Pension Plans — As a result of the merger with Ply Gem Parent, LLC on November 16, 2018, the Company assumed the Ply Gem Group Pension Plan (the “Ply Gem Plan”) and the MW Manufacturers, Inc Retirement Plan (the “MW Plan”). The Ply Gem Plan was frozen during 1998, and no further increases in benefits for participants may occur as a result of increases in service years or compensation. The MW Plan was frozen for salaried participants during 2004 and non-salaried participants during 2005. No additional participants may enter the plan, but increases in benefits for participants as a result of increase in service years or compensation will occur. Plan assets of the Ply Gem Plan are invested in broadly diversified portfolios of government obligations, mutual funds, stocks, bonds and fixed income securities.
We refer to the RCC Pension Plan, the Coil Coatings Benefit Plans, the Ply Gem Plan and the MW Plan collectively as the “Defined Benefit Plans” in this Note.

Term Loan Facility due April 2028 and Cash Flow Revolver
On April 12, 2018, Ply Gem Midco entered into a Cash Flow Agreement (the "Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement"), which provides for (i) a term loan facility (the “Existing Term Loan Facility”) in an original aggregate principal amount of $1,755.0 million, issued with a discount of 0.5%, and (ii) a cash flow-based revolving credit facility (the “Existing Cash Flow Revolver” and together with the Existing Term Loan Facility, the “Existing Cash Flow Facilities”) of up to $115.0 million.
22


On November 16, 2018, the Company entered into an incremental term loan facility in connection with the Merger, which increased the aggregate principal amount of the Existing Term Loan Facility by $805.0 million. The proceeds of this incremental term loan facility were used to, among other things, (a) finance the Merger and to pay certain fees, premiums and expenses incurred in connection therewith, (b) repay in full amounts outstanding under the Pre-merger Term Loan Credit Agreement and the Pre-merger ABL Credit Agreement and (c) repay $325.0 million of borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility. On November 16, 2018, in connection with the consummation of the Merger, NCI and Ply Gem Midco entered into a joinder agreement with respect to the Existing Cash Flow Facilities, and the Company became the Borrower (as defined in the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement) under the Existing Cash Flow Facilities.
On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into a Second Amendment to the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment"), among the Company, the several banks and other financial institutions party thereto (the "Cash Flow Lenders") and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent (the “Cash Flow Agent”), which amended the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement to, among other things:
Terminate $92.0 million of commitments by Cash Flow Lenders under the Company’s cash flow-based revolving credit facility of up to $115.0 million, maturing on April 12, 2023 (the “Existing Cash Flow Revolver”); and
Replace such commitments with $92.0 million of extended cash flow-based revolving commitments, maturing on April 12, 2026 (the “Extended Cash Flow Revolver” and together with the Existing Cash Flow Revolver, the “Current Cash Flow Revolver”).
On April 15, 2021, the Company entered into (i) a Third Amendment to Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement (the “Third Amendment”), among the Company, the subsidiary guarantors parties thereto, the Cash Flow Lenders party thereto and the Cash Flow Agent and (ii) an Increase Supplement (the “Increase Supplement”), between the Company and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the increasing lender. The Third Amendment amended the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement to, among other things, refinance the Existing Term Loan Facility in an original aggregate principal amount of $1,755.0 million with Tranche B Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $2,491.6 million, maturing on April 12, 2028. The Increase Supplement supplemented the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement to, among other things, increase the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B Term Loan Facility by $108.4 million (the “Incremental Tranche B Term Loans”), for a total principal amount of $2,600.0 million (the “Current Term Loan Facility” and together with the Current Cash Flow Revolver, the “Current Cash Flow Facilities”). Proceeds of the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans were used, together with cash on hand, (i) for the redemption of all of the 8.00% Senior Notes (as defined below) (the “Senior Notes Redemption”) and (ii) to pay any fees and expenses incurred in connection with the extension and refinancing of the Company’s senior credit facilities and the Senior Notes Redemption.
In connection with the Third Amendment and the Increase Supplement to the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement, the Company incurred $24.8 million in financing costs of which $13.2 million was deferred and are being amortized using the effective interest method.
The Current Term Loan Facility amortizes in nominal quarterly installments equal to one percent of the aggregate initial principal amount thereof per annum, with the remaining balance payable upon final maturity. The Current Term Loan Facility bears annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at the Company’s option, either (i) an adjusted LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0.50%) plus an applicable margin of 3.25% per annum or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin of 2.25% per annum. At July 2, 2022, the interest rates on the Current Term Loan Facility were as follows:
July 2, 2022
Interest rate4.57 %
Effective interest rate4.02 %
The Company entered into certain interest rate swap agreements in 2019 and 2021 to effectively convert a portion of its variable rate debt to fixed. See Note 16 — Derivatives.
Loans outstanding under the Current Cash Flow Revolver bear annual interest at a floating rate measured by reference to, at the Company’s option, either (i) an adjusted LIBOR rate (subject to a floor of 0.00%) plus an applicable margin ranging from 2.50% to 3.00% per annum depending on the Company’s secured leverage ratio or (ii) an alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging from 1.50% to 2.00% per annum depending on the Company’s secured leverage ratio. There are no amortization payments under the Current Cash Flow Revolver. Additionally, unused commitments under the Current Cash Flow Revolver are subject to a fee ranging from 0.25% to 0.50% per annum depending on the Company’s secured leverage ratio.
23


Both the Current Term Loan Facility and Current Cash Flow Revolver may be prepaid at the Company’s option at any time without premium or penalty (other than customary breakage costs), subject to minimum principal amount requirements.
Subject to certain exceptions, the Current Term Loan Facility is subject to mandatory prepayments in an amount equal to:
the net cash proceeds of (1) certain asset sales, (2) certain debt offerings and (3) certain insurance recovery and condemnation events; and
50% of annual excess cash flow (as defined in the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement), subject to reduction to 25% and 0% if specified secured leverage ratio targets are met to the extent that the amount of such excess cash flow exceeds $10.0 million. No payments were required in 2021 under the fiscal year 2020 excess cash flow calculation.
The obligations under the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement are guaranteed by each direct and indirect wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary of the Company, subject to certain exceptions, and are secured by:
a perfected security interest in substantially all tangible and intangible assets of the Company and each subsidiary guarantor (other than ABL Priority Collateral (as defined below)), including the capital stock of each direct material wholly-owned U.S. restricted subsidiary owned by the Company and each subsidiary guarantor, and 65% of the capital stock of any non-U.S. subsidiary held directly by the Company or any subsidiary guarantor, subject to certain exceptions (the “Cash Flow Priority Collateral”), which security interest will be senior to the security interest in the foregoing assets securing the Current ABL Facility; and
a perfected security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral, which security interest will be junior to the security interest in the ABL Priority Collateral securing the Current ABL Facility.
The Current Cash Flow Revolver includes a financial covenant set at a maximum secured leverage ratio of 7.75:1.00, which will apply if the outstanding amount of loans and drawings under letters of credit which have not then been reimbursed exceeds a specified threshold at the end of any fiscal quarter.
On July 25, 2022, in connection with the consummation of the CD&R Merger, Parent entered into a joinder agreement with respect to the Existing Cash Flow Facilities, and Parent became Holdings (as defined in the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement) under the Existing Cash Flow Facilities.
ABL Facility due July 2027
On April 12, 2018, Ply Gem Midco entered into an ABL Credit Agreement (the “Current ABL Credit Agreement”), which provides for an asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Existing ABL Facility”) of up to $360.0 million, consisting of (i) $285.0 million available to U.S. borrowers (subject to U.S. borrowing base availability) (the “ABL U.S. Facility”) and (ii) $75.0 million available to both U.S. borrowers and Canadian borrowers (subject to U.S. borrowing base and Canadian borrowing base availability) (the “ABL Canadian Facility”).

Add an incremental first-in, last-out tranche asset-based revolving credit facility of $95.0 million (the “FILO Facility”).
Borrowing availability under the Current ABL Facility and the FILO Facility (collectively, the “ABL Facilities”) is determined by a monthly borrowing base collateral calculation that is based on specified percentages of the value of eligible inventory, eligible accounts receivable and eligible credit card receivables, less certain reserves and subject to certain other adjustments as set forth in the Current ABL Credit Agreement. Availability is reduced by issuance of letters of credit as well as any borrowings. As of July 2, 2022, the Company had the following in relation to the Current ABL Facility (in thousands):

The 8.750% Senior Secured Notes bear interest at 8.750% per annum and will mature on August 1, 2028. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 of each year and on August 1, 2028; provided, that if the New Term Loans outstanding as of July 25, 2022 will not be discharged as of July 15, 2027, in lieu of the interest payment date that would otherwise be January 15, 2028, interest will instead be payable in cash on April 15, 2028. The first interest date will be January 15, 2023.
The 8.750% Senior Secured Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Current Cash Flow Facilities or the Current ABL Facility (including by reason of being a borrower under the Current ABL Facility on a joint and several basis with the Company or a subsidiary guarantor). The 8.750% Senior Secured Notes are secured senior indebtedness and are effectively senior to all of the Company’s indebtedness under the Current ABL Facility, to the extent of the value of the Cash

Flow Priority Collateral securing such indebtedness, effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s indebtedness under the Current ABL Facility, to the extent of the value of the ABL Priority Collateral securing such indebtedness, equal with the Company’s indebtedness secured by liens on the collateral that are pari passu to the liens on the collateral securing the 8.750% Senior Secured Notes (including the Current Cash Flow Facilities and the New Term Loan Facility), and are senior in right of payment to future subordinated indebtedness of the Company.
The Company may redeem the 8.750% Senior Secured Notes in whole or in part at any time as set forth below:

On September 24, 2020, the Company issued $500.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 6.125% Senior Notes due January 2029 (the “6.125% Senior Notes”).

The 6.125% Senior Notes bear interest at 6.125% per annum and will mature on January 15, 2029. Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 commencing on January 15, 2021. The effective interest rate for the 6.125% Senior Notes was 6.33% as of July 2, 2022, after considering each of the different interest expense components of this instrument, including the coupon payment and the deferred debt issuance costs.
The 6.125% Senior Notes are guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by each of the Company’s existing and future wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries that guarantee the Company’s obligations under the Current Cash Flow Facilities or the Current ABL Facility (including by reason of being a borrower under the Current ABL Facility on a joint and several basis with the Company or a subsidiary guarantor). The 6.125% Senior Notes are unsecured senior indebtedness and are effectively subordinated to all of the Company’s existing and future senior secured indebtedness, including indebtedness under the Current Term Loan Facility, Current Cash Flow Revolver, ABL Facilities and New Term Loan Facility, and are senior in right of payment to future subordinated indebtedness of the Company.
The Company may redeem the 6.125% Senior Notes in whole or in part at any time as set forth below:

on or after September 15, 2023 and prior to September 15, 2024, at a price equal to 103.063% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date;
on or after September 15, 2024 and prior to September 15, 2025, at a price equal to 101.531% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date; and
on or after September 15, 2025, at a price equal to 100.000% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the redemption date.
During the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a 10b5-1 trading plan to repurchase an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million of its 6.125% Senior Notes. As of July 2, 2022, the Company repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $11.0 million of the 6.125% Senior Notes for $7.3 million in cash. The net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including unamortized debt discount and deferred financing costs, was $10.9 million, resulting in a $3.6 million gain on extinguishment of debt, which is included as a separate item in the consolidated statements of operations.
Subsequent to July 2, 2022, the Company completed the 10b5-1 trading plan by repurchasing an aggregate principal amount of $89.0 million for $63.3 million in cash. The Company anticipates recognizing a gain of approximately $24.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 after the write-off of associated unamortized debt discount and deferred financing costs.

Redemption of 8.00% Senior Notes
On April 15, 2021, the Company redeemed the outstanding $645.0 million aggregate principal amount of the 8.00% Senior Notes due April 2026 (the “8.00% Senior Notes”) for $670.8 million using cash on hand and proceeds from the Incremental Tranche B Term Loans. The redemption resulted in a pre-tax loss on extinguishment of debt of $41.9 million during the year ended December 31, 2021, comprising a make-whole premium of $25.8 million and a write-off of $16.1 million in unamortized deferred financing costs.
Debt Covenants
The Company’s debt agreements contain a number of covenants that, among other things, limit or restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness; make dividends and other restricted payments; incur additional liens; consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all assets; make investments; transfer or sell assets; enter into restrictive agreements; change the nature of the business; and enter into certain transactions with affiliates. As of July 2, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all covenants that were in effect on such date.
NOTE 16 — DERIVATIVES
We utilize derivative instruments, including interest rate swap agreements and foreign currency hedging contracts, to manage our exposure to interest rate risk and currency fluctuations. We only hold such instruments for economic hedging purposes, not for speculative or trading purposes. Our derivative instruments are transacted only with highly rated institutions, which reduces our exposure to credit risk in the event of nonperformance.
Interest Rate Swaps
We are exposed to interest rate risk associated with fluctuations in interest rates on our floating-rate Current Term Loan Facility. The objective in using interest rate derivatives is to manage our exposure to interest rate movements. To accomplish this objective, we have entered into interest rate swap agreements as part of our interest rate risk management strategy. Interest rate swaps involve the receipt of variable amounts from a counterparty in exchange for the company making fixed-rate payments over the life of the agreements without exchange of the underlying notional amount.
On a monthly basis, we net settle with our swap counterparties for the difference between the fixed rate specified in each swap agreement and the variable rate as applied to the notional amount of the swap.
In May 2019, the Company entered into four-year interest rate swaps to mitigate variability in forecasted interest payments on $1,500 million of the Company’s Current Term Loan Facility. The interest rate swaps effectively converted a portion of the floating rate interest payment into a fixed rate interest payment. Three interest rate swaps each covered a notional amount of $500 million. The Company designated the interest rate swaps as qualifying hedging instruments and accounted for these derivatives as cash flow hedges.
As discussed in Note 15 — Long-Term Debt, the Company refinanced its Term Loan Facility. Contemporaneously with the refinancing on April 15, 2021, we completed a series of transactions to modify our interest rate swap positions as follows: (i) we dedesignated all existing interest rate swaps as cash flow hedges; (ii) we terminated two existing interest rate swaps with a notional value of $500 million each; (iii) we entered into two receive-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $250 million each, which are designed to offset the terms of an existing, active interest rate swap with a notional amount of $500 million; and (iv) we entered into two pay-fixed interest rate swaps with a notional amount of $750 million each, effectively blending the liability position of our existing interest rate swap agreements into the new swaps and extending the term of our hedged position to April 2026.
The amount remaining in accumulated other comprehensive loss for the dedesignated and terminated swaps as of July 2, 2022 was $30.1 million and is being amortized as an increase to interest expense over the effective period of the original swap agreements.
The new receive-fixed interest rate swaps remain undesignated to economically offset the dedesignated existing, active swap. The new receive-fixed swaps and the dedesignated existing, active swap mature on July 12, 2023. Cash settlements related to the receive-fixed interest rate swaps are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The new pay-fixed interest rate swaps also qualify as hybrid instruments in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging, consisting of a financing component and an embedded at-market derivative that was designated as a cash flow hedge. The financing component is accounted for at amortized cost over the life of the swap while the embedded at-market derivative is accounted for at fair value. The new swaps are indexed to one-month LIBOR and are net settled on a monthly basis with the counterparty for the difference between the fixed rate of 2.0369% and 2.0340%, respectively, and the variable rate based upon one-month LIBOR (subject to a floor of 0.5%) as applied to the notional amount of the swaps. In connection with the transactions discussed above, no cash was exchanged between the Company and the counterparty. The liability of the terminated interest rate swaps as well as the inception value of the receive-fixed interest rate swap was blended into the new
28


pay-fixed interest rate swap. The cash flows related to the portion treated as a financing component are classified as financing activities while the cash flows related to the portion treated as an at-market derivative are classified as operating activities in the consolidated statements of cash flows.
The key terms of interest rate swaps are as follows (amounts in thousands):

The embedded at-market derivative portion of our interest rate swap agreements is recognized at fair value on the consolidated balance sheets. It is valued using pricing models that rely on market observable inputs such as yield curve data, which are classified as Level 2 inputs within the fair value hierarchy.
Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
The Company enters into forward contracts to hedge a portion of its non-functional currency inventory purchases. These forward contracts are established to protect the Company from variability in cash flows attributable to changes in the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar. The forward contracts are highly correlated to the changes in the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar. All of the Company’s foreign currency forward contracts are initially designated as qualifying hedging instruments and accounted for as cash flow hedges in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. Unrealized gains and losses on these contracts are designated as effective or ineffective. The effective portion of such gains or losses is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive income or loss, while the ineffective portion of such gains or losses is recorded as a component of cost of goods sold. Future realized gains and losses in connection with each inventory purchase will be reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to cost of goods sold. The gains and losses on the derivative contracts that are reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) to current period earnings are included in the line item in which the hedged item is recorded in the same period the forecasted transaction affects earnings. The Company may dedesignate cash flow hedges in advance of the occurrence of the forecasted transactions.
During the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, the Company realized a gain of $0.5 million and a loss of $0.5 million, respectively, within cost of goods sold in the consolidated statements of operations based on the foreign currency forward contracts described above. The changes in fair values of derivatives that have been designated and qualify as cash flow hedges are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) and are reclassified into cost of goods sold in the same period the hedged item affects earnings. Due to the high degree of effectiveness between the hedging instruments and the underlying exposures being hedged, fluctuations in the value of the derivative instruments are generally offset by changes in the fair value or cash flows of the underlying exposures being hedged. The changes in the fair value of derivatives that do not qualify as effective are immediately recognized in earnings. As of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company had a hedge asset of $1.1 million and $0.7 million respectively, and a gain of $1.1 million and $0.8 million in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss), respectively, on the consolidated balance sheets.

NOTE 17 — CD&R INVESTOR GROUP
On August 14, 2009, the Company entered into an Investment Agreement (as amended, the “Investment Agreement”), by and between the Company and Clayton, Dubilier & Rice Fund VIII, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“CD&R Fund VIII”). In connection with the Investment Agreement and the Stockholders Agreement dated October 20, 2009 (the “Old Stockholders Agreement”), CD&R Fund VIII and CD&R Friends & Family Fund VIII, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“CD&R FF Fund” and, together with CD&R Fund VIII, the “CD&R Fund VIII Investor Group”) purchased convertible preferred stock of the Company, which was converted into shares of our common stock on May 14, 2013.
Ply Gem Holdings was acquired by CD&R Fund X and Atrium Intermediate Holdings, LLC, GGC BP Holdings, LLC and AIC Finance Partnership, L.P. (collectively, the “Golden Gate Investor Group”) and merged with Atrium on April 12, 2018.
On July 17, 2018, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Ply Gem, and for certain limited purposes as set forth in the Merger Agreement, Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC, pursuant to which, at the closing of the merger, Ply Gem would be merged with and into the Company, with the Company continuing its existence as a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Delaware (the “Merger”). The Merger was consummated on November 16, 2018 pursuant to the Merger Agreement.
Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, on November 16, 2018, the Company entered into (i) a stockholders agreement (the “New Stockholders Agreement”) between the Company, and each of the CD&R Fund VIII Investor Group, CD&R Pisces Holdings, L.P., a Cayman Islands exempted limited partnership (“CD&R Pisces”, and together with the CD&R Fund VIII Investor Group, the “CD&R Investor Group”) and the Golden Gate Investor Group (together with the CD&R Investor Group, the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company granted to the Investors certain governance, preemptive and subscription rights and (ii) a registration rights agreement (the “New Registration Rights Agreement”) between the Company and each of the Investors, pursuant to which the Company granted the Investors customary demand and piggyback registration rights, including rights to demand registrations and underwritten shelf registration statement offerings with respect to the shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by the Investors following the consummation of the Merger.
On August 25, 2020, the Company filed a shelf registration statement on Form S-3, declared effective by the SEC on September 2, 2020, registering the resale of shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by CD&R Pisces. The Company had previously registered the resale of shares of the Company’s Common Stock held by the CD&R Fund VIII Investor Group and the Golden Gate Investor Group.

(“Merger Sub”). Parent and Merger Sub are subsidiaries of investment funds managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice (“CD&R”). Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the CD&R Merger Agreement, among other things, Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company (the “CD&R Merger”). As a result of the CD&R Merger, the Company will cease to be publicly-traded, and investment funds managed by CD&R will become the indirect owner of all of the Company’s outstanding shares of common stock that it does not already own. With the completion of the CD&R Merger on July 25, 2022, shares of Company common stock were removed from trading on the NYSE and the Company became a privately held company. In connection with the CD&R Merger, the New Stockholders Agreement and the New Registration Rights Agreements were terminated in accordance with their respective terms.
NOTE 18 — STOCK REPURCHASE PROGRAM
On March 7, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to $50.0 million of the Company’s outstanding Common Stock. Under the repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares at times and in amounts that it deems appropriate in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. There is no time limit on the duration of the program and shares repurchased pursuant to the repurchase program are usually retired.
During the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, there were no stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program. As of July 2, 2022, $49.1 million remained available for stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program. The timing and method of any repurchases, which will depend on a variety of factors, including market conditions, are subject to
31


results of operations, financial conditions, cash requirements and other factors, and may be suspended or discontinued at any time.
During the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, the Company withheld 0.2 million and 0.1 million shares, respectively, of stock to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting of stock awards, which are included in treasury stock purchases in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.
During the six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company cancelled 0.2 million shares that had been previously withheld to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting of stock awards. The cancellations resulted in a $4.6 million decrease in both treasury stock and additional paid in capital during the six months ended July 2, 2022.
NOTE 19 — FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS AND FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value as of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021 because of their relatively short maturities. The carrying amounts of the indebtedness under the Current ABL Facility and Current Cash Flow Revolver approximate fair value as the interest rates are variable and reflective of market rates. At July 2, 2022, there were no borrowings outstanding under the Current ABL Facility and no outstanding indebtedness under the Current Cash Flow Revolver. The fair values of the remaining financial instruments not currently recognized at fair value on our consolidated balance sheets at the respective period ends were (in thousands):

The fair value of the term loan facility was based on recent trading activities of comparable market instruments, which are level 2 inputs, and the fair value of the 6.125% senior notes was based on quoted prices in active markets for the identical liabilities, which are level 1 inputs.
Fair Value Measurements
ASC Subtopic 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, requires us to use valuation techniques to measure fair value that maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. These inputs are prioritized as follows:
Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets.
Level 2: Other inputs that are observable directly or indirectly, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities or market-corroborated inputs.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs for which there is little or no market data and which require us to develop our own assumptions about how market participants would price the assets or liabilities.
The following is a description of the valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities measured at fair value. There have been no changes in the methodologies used as of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021.
Money market: Money market funds have original maturities of three months or less. The original cost of these assets approximates fair value due to their short-term maturity.
Mutual funds: Mutual funds are valued at the closing price reported in the active market in which the mutual fund is traded. 
Deferred compensation plan liability: Deferred compensation plan liability is comprised of phantom investments in the deferred compensation plan and is valued at the closing price reported in the active markets in which the money market and mutual funds are traded.
Interest rate swaps: Interest rate swaps are based on cash flow hedge contracts that have fixed rate structures and are measured against market-based LIBOR yield curves. These interest rate swaps are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are valued using alternative pricing sources or models that utilized market observable inputs, including current and forward interest rates.
32


Foreign currency forward contracts: The fair value of the foreign currency forward contracts are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because they are estimated using industry standard valuation models using market-based observable inputs, including spot rates, forward points, interest rates and volatility inputs.
The following tables summarize information regarding our financial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value on a recurring basis as of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021, segregated by the level of the valuation inputs within the fair value hierarchy utilized to measure fair value (in thousands):

NOTE 20 — INCOME TAXES
Under FASB ASC 740-270, Income Taxes - Interim Reporting, each interim period is considered an integral part of the annual period and tax expense is measured using an estimated annual effective tax rate. Estimates of the annual effective tax rate at the end of interim periods are, of necessity, based on evaluations of possible future events and transactions and may be subject to subsequent refinement or revision. The Company calculates its quarterly tax provision consistent with the guidance provided by ASC 740-270, whereby the Company forecasts its estimated annual effective tax rate then applies that rate to its year-to-date ordinary pre-tax book income (loss). In addition, the Company excludes jurisdictions with a projected loss for the year or the year-to-date ordinary loss where the Company cannot recognize a tax benefit from its estimated annual effective tax rate. The impact of such an exclusion could result in a higher or lower effective tax rate during a particular quarter, based upon the mix and timing of actual earnings versus annual projections. In addition to the tax resulting from applying the estimated annual effective tax rate to pre-tax book income (loss), the Company includes certain items treated as discrete events to arrive at an estimated effective tax rate. Future changes in the forecasted annual income (loss) projections, tax rate changes, or discrete tax items could result in significant adjustments to quarterly income tax expense in future periods in accordance with ASC 740-270.
For the six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company’s estimated annual effective income tax rate of ordinary forecasted pre-tax book income was approximately 26.2%, which varied from the statutory rate primarily due to impact of global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”), state income tax expense, valuation allowances, foreign income taxes, and executive compensation. For the six months ended July 2, 2022, the effective tax rate was 25.7%, which varied from the annual effective tax rate due to discrete items recorded during the period, including legal settlement income received, interest recorded on unrecognized tax benefits, adjustments to state income tax rates, and stock compensation.
Valuation allowance
As of July 2, 2022, the Company remained in a valuation allowance position, in the amount of $14.3 million, against its deferred tax assets for certain state jurisdictions of certain entities as it is currently deemed “more likely than not” that the benefit of such net tax assets will not be utilized as the Company continues to be in a three-year cumulative loss position for these state jurisdictions. The Company will continue to monitor the positive and negative factors for these jurisdictions and make further changes to the valuation allowances as necessary.
Unrecognized tax benefits
Despite the Company’s belief that its tax return positions are consistent with applicable tax laws, the Company believes that certain positions could be challenged by taxing authorities. The Company’s tax reserves reflect the difference between the tax benefit claimed on tax returns and the amount recognized in the consolidated financial statements. These reserves have been established based on management’s assessment as to potential exposure attributable to permanent differences as well as interest and penalties applicable to both permanent and temporary differences. The tax reserves are reviewed periodically and adjusted in light of changing facts and circumstances, such as progress of tax audits, lapse of applicable statutes of limitations and changes in tax law. The Company is currently under examination by various taxing authorities. During the six months ended July 2, 2022, the tax reserves increased by approximately $0.6 million. The increase is primarily due to additional interest expense related to previously recorded unrecognized tax benefits.
The liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of July 2, 2022 was approximately $18.0 million and is recorded in other long-term liabilities in the consolidated balance sheet.
CARES Act
Under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (CARES Act”) that was signed into law on March 27, 2020, the Company elected to defer employer social security payments of approximately $19.9 million as of December 31, 2020. In December 2021, the Company paid approximately $10 million in deferred employer social security payments and has approximately $10 million recorded in current liabilities on the consolidated balance sheet as of July 2, 2022 that will be paid by December 31, 2022.

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise that engage in business activities for which discrete financial information is available and is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker to make decisions regarding the allocation of resources to the segment and assess the performance of the segment. The Company has three reportable segments: Windows, Siding and Commercial.
These operating segments follow the same accounting policies used for our consolidated financial statements. We evaluate a segment’s performance on a U.S. GAAP basis based primarily upon operating income before corporate expenses.
Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, investments, prepaid expenses, current and deferred taxes and property, plant and equipment associated with our headquarters in Cary, North Carolina and office in Houston, Texas. These items (and income and expenses related to these items) are not allocated to the operating segments. Corporate unallocated expenses primarily include share-based compensation expenses, restructuring charges, acquisition-related costs, and other expenses related to executive, legal, finance, tax, treasury, human resources, information technology and strategic sourcing, and corporate travel expenses. Additional unallocated amounts primarily include non-operating items such as interest income, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt, and other income (expense).
The following table represents summary financial data attributable to the segments for the periods indicated (in thousands):

NOTE 22 — CONTINGENCIES
As a manufacturer of products primarily for use in building construction, the Company is inherently exposed to various types of contingent claims, both asserted and unasserted, in the ordinary course of business. As a result, from time to time, the Company and/or its subsidiaries become involved in various legal proceedings or other contingent matters arising from claims or potential claims arising out of its operations and businesses that cover a wide range of matters, including, among others, environmental, contract, employment, intellectual property, securities, personal injury, property damage, product liability, warranty, and modification, adjustment or replacement of component parts or units sold, which may include product recalls. The Company insures (or self-insures) against these risks to the extent deemed prudent by its management and to the extent insurance is available. The Company regularly reviews the status of ongoing proceedings and other contingent matters. Liabilities for such items are recorded when it is probable that the liability has been incurred and when the amount of the liability can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities are adjusted when additional information becomes available. Management believes that the ultimate disposition of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows. However, such matters are subject to many uncertainties and outcomes and are not predictable with assurance.
Further, due to the lack of adequate information and the potential impact of present regulations and any future regulations, there are certain circumstances in which no range of potential exposure may be reasonably estimated. Also, it is not possible to ascertain the ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to certain contingent liabilities, including lawsuits, and therefore no such estimate has been made as of July 2, 2022.
Environmental
The Company’s operations are subject to various federal, state, local and foreign environmental, health and safety laws. Among other things, these laws regulate the emissions or discharge of materials into the environment; govern the use, storage, treatment, disposal and management of hazardous substances and wastes; protect the health and safety of its employees and the end-users of its products; regulate the materials used in its products; and impose liability for the costs of investigating and remediating (as well as other damages resulting from) present and past releases of hazardous substances. Violations of these laws or of any conditions contained in environmental permits could result in substantial fines or penalties, civil sanctions, injunctive relief, consent orders, or requirements to install pollution controls or other abatement equipment.
The Company could be held liable for costs to investigate, remediate or otherwise address contamination at any real property it has ever owned, operated or used as a disposal site, or at other sites where the Company or its predecessors may have released hazardous materials. The Company could incur fines, penalties or sanctions or be subject to third-party claims, including indemnification claims, for property damage, personal injury or otherwise as a result of violations of (or liabilities under) environmental, health and safety laws, or in connection with releases of hazardous or other materials.
MW Manufacturers, Inc. (“MW”), a subsidiary of Ply Gem Industries, Inc., entered into a September 2011 Administrative Order on Consent with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) under the Corrective Action Program to address known releases of hazardous substances at MW’s Rocky Mount, Virginia property. A Phase I RCRA Facility Investigation (“RFI”) was submitted to the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality (“VDEQ”) in December 2015, and a Phase II RFI and the Human Health Risk Assessment and Baseline Ecological Risk Assessment were submitted in October 2018. A Limited Corrective Measures Study based on the investigations was submitted to the VDEQ for review and approval in September 2019. Upon completion of a 30-day public comment period, the VDEQ issued its Final Decision and Response to Comments approving a final remedy in May 2021. The final remedy consists of continuing groundwater monitoring until the VDEQ’s corrective actions have been met; and implementing and complying with land use restrictions and institutional controls imposed by an environmental covenant. The Company has recorded a liability of $4.5 million for this MW site, of which $1.0 million is in other current liabilities and $3.5 million is in other long-term liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of July 2, 2022. 
The EPA is investigating groundwater contamination at a Superfund site in York, Nebraska, referred to as the PCE/TCE Northeast Contamination Site (“PCE/TCE Site”). Kroy Building Products, Inc. (“KBP”), a subsidiary of Ply Gem Industries, Inc., has been identified as a potentially responsible party at the site and has liability for investigation and remediation costs associated with the contamination. In May 2019, KBP and an unrelated respondent entered into an Administrative Settlement Agreement and Order on Consent with the EPA to conduct a Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study (“RI/FS”) of the PCE/TCE Site. A final RI/FS Work Plan was approved by the EPA in December 2019. Two phases of RI field sampling were completed through May 2021 and EPA-approved groundwater monitoring wells installation is planned for Q3 2022. The Company has recorded a liability of $4.4 million within other current liabilities on its consolidated balance sheet as of July 2, 2022. If necessary, the Company will adjust its remediation liability if the RI/FS scope materially changes or the EPA imposes additional investigative requirements. The Company may be able to recover a portion of costs incurred in connection with the PCE/TCE Site from other potentially responsible parties, though there is no assurance we would receive any funds.
36


Based on current information, the Company is not aware of any environmental compliance obligations, claims or investigations that will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, cash flows or financial position except as otherwise disclosed in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. However, there can be no guarantee that previously known or newly discovered matters will not result in material costs or liabilities.
Litigation
The Company believes it has valid defenses to the outstanding claims discussed below and will vigorously defend all such claims; however, litigation is subject to many uncertainties and there cannot be any assurance that the Company will ultimately prevail or, in the event of an unfavorable outcome or settlement of litigation, that the ultimate liability would not be material and would not have a material adverse effect on the business, results of operations, cash flows or financial position of the Company.
In November 2018, Aurora Plastics, LLC (“Aurora”) initiated an arbitration demand against Atrium Windows and Doors, Inc., Atrium Extrusion Systems, Inc., and North Star Manufacturing (London) Ltd. (collectively, “Atrium”) pursuant to a Third Amended and Restated Vinyl Compound and Supply Agreement dated as of December 22, 2016. A settlement was reached in this case during the fourth quarter of 2019. The Company has a $1.6 million liability related to the settlement in other current liabilities on the Company’s consolidated balance sheet as of July 2, 2022. The liability will be paid in January 2023.
On November 14, 2018, an individual stockholder, Gary D. Voigt, filed a putative class action Complaint in the Delaware Court of Chancery against Clayton Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”), Clayton, Dubilier & Rice Fund VIII, L.P. (“CD&R Fund VIII”), and certain directors of the Company. Voigt purported to assert claims on behalf of himself, on behalf of a class of other similarly situated stockholders of the Company, and derivatively on behalf of the Company, the nominal defendant. An Amended Complaint was filed on April 11, 2019. The Amended Complaint asserted claims for breach of fiduciary duty and unjust enrichment against CD&R Fund VIII and CD&R, and for breach of fiduciary duty against twelve director defendants in connection with the Merger. Defendants moved to dismiss the Amended Complaint and, on February 10, 2020, the court denied the motions except as to four of the director defendants. Voigt sought damages in an amount to be determined at trial. On August 25, 2021, the parties to the case filed a Stipulation of Compromise and Settlement (“Stipulation”) setting forth their agreement to settle the litigation. The Stipulation provides for CD&R, CD&R Fund VIII, and the eight director defendants to cause their respective insurers to pay a total of $100 million into an escrow account that will be used to pay escrow expenses, satisfy any fee and incentive amounts awarded by the court in favor of plaintiff and plaintiff’s counsel, and distribute the remaining funds to the Company. The Stipulation further provided that plaintiff’s counsel would apply for an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses in an amount of up to 23.5% of the $100 million payment by the insurers, and that any incentive award for the named plaintiff will be paid solely from the amount of plaintiff attorneys’ fees awarded. This Stipulation required court approval. On January 19, 2022, the Court held a hearing, verbally approved the Stipulation, and approved the plaintiff’s counsel’s application for a fee award of 23.5% of the $100 million settlement payment and the incentive award. On January 20, 2022, the Court entered an Order and Final Judgment approving the Stipulation. During the quarter ended April 2, 2022, the matter was resolved as the Company received $76.5 million in cash proceeds from the Stipulation, which was recorded in gain on legal settlements in the consolidated statement of operations.
Three complaints were filed by purported former stockholders of the Company relating to the CD&R Merger. The actions are captioned Stein v. Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-02981 (Apr. 11, 2022), filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, Hopkins v. Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc., et al., Case No. 1:22-cv-02258 (Apr. 20, 2022), filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of New York, and Whitfield v. Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc., et al., Case No. 2:22-cv-01547 (Apr. 20, 2022), filed in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania. The complaints named the Company and the members of the Company’s board of directors as defendants and alleged that the preliminary proxy statement filed with the SEC on April 7, 2022 contained alleged material misstatements and omissions in violation of Section 14(a) and Section 20(a) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14a-9 of the Exchange Act. On July 7, 2022, plaintiffs in each litigation voluntarily dismissed their complaints.
Additional lawsuits may be filed against the Company, current or former members of the Company’s board of directors or the Company’s officers in connection with the CD&R Merger, which could result in substantial costs to the Company, including any costs associated with indemnification.
37


Other contingencies
The Company’s imports of fabricated structural steel (“FSS”) from its Mexican affiliate, Building Systems de Mexico S.A. de C.V. (“BSM”) were subject to antidumping (“AD”) and countervailing duty (“CVD”) tariff proceedings before the U.S. Department of Commerce (“DOC”) and the U.S. International Trade Commission (“USITC”). The proceedings were initiated in February 2019 by the American Institute of Steel Construction (“AISC”) against FSS being imported into the USA from Mexico, Canada, and China. In 2019, the DOC issued preliminary tariff rates and in 2020 finalized CVD and AD tariff rates of 0% and 8.47%, respectively, for the Company’s imports of FSS from BSM. However, in February 2020, in a 3 to 2 vote, the USITC concluded there was no injury or threat of injury to the domestic FSS industry. In March 2020, the USITC opinion was published in the Federal Register, ceasing the Company’s requirement to pay the AD and CVD tariffs. The Company received full reimbursement for the $4.1 million in tariffs previously deposited with United States Customs and Border Protection and recorded a reduction in costs of sales during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2020. This matter was appealed by the AISC and, on September 22, 2021, the U.S. Court of International Trade (“CIT”) issued an opinion upholding the USITC’s determination that there was no injury or threat of injury to the domestic FSS industry caused by the cumulated imports of FSS from Mexico, Canada, and China. The AISC has appealed the CIT decision to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit (“CAFC”). The Company will continue to vigorously advocate its position, that its import of FSS from BSM should not be subject to any CVD or AD tariffs, in all tribunals including the CAFC as well as the tribunal established pursuant to the North American Free Trade Agreement (“NAFTA”). The Company’s position is in agreement with, and bolstered by, the USITC’s determination that FSS imports do not cause material injury or threaten material injury to the U.S. industry and the CIT’s sustaining of the USITC’s final negative injury determination. We have evaluated this matter in accordance with ASC 450, Contingencies, and concluded that no liability to the Company is probable and estimable as of July 2, 2022.
NOTE 23 — SUBSEQUENT EVENTS
On July 25, 2022, the Company, Camelot Return Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Parent”) and Camelot Return Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) completed the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 5, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub. Parent and Merger Sub are subsidiaries of investment funds managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “CD&R Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a subsidiary of Parent (the “Surviving Corporation”). Prior to the completion of the CD&R Merger, CD&R and its affiliates collectively owned approximately 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Company common stock”). As a result of the CD&R Merger, investment funds managed by CD&R became the indirect owners of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock that CD&R did not already own. With the completion of the CD&R Merger, shares of Company common stock were removed from trading on the NYSE and we became a privately held company.
As discussed in Note 15 — Long-Term Debt, on July 25, 2022, in connection with the CD&R Merger, the Company (i) amended the Current ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, upsize the facility to $850.0 million and add the FILO Facility of $95.0 million, (ii) entered into the New Term Loan Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million, and (iii) and issued $710.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.750% Senior Secured Notes due August 2028. Proceeds from the New Term Loan Facility and the Senior Secured Notes, together with other sources, were used to fund the consummation of the CD&R Merger.

OVERVIEW
Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc. is the largest manufacturer of exterior building products in North America. The Company serves residential and commercial customers across new construction and the repair & remodel markets. Our mission is to be relentlessly committed to our customers and to create great building solutions that enable communities to grow and thrive.
40


We have developed and continue to implement a well-defined business strategy focused on (i) driving profitable growth in new and existing markets; (ii) leveraging operational excellence across our businesses; and (iii) implementing a capital allocation framework balanced between a focus on opportunistic investment in high return initiatives and continued debt repayment.
We believe that by focusing on operational excellence every day, creating a platform for future growth and investing in market-leading residential and commercial building brands, we will deliver unparalleled financial results. We design, engineer, manufacture, install and market external building products through our three operating segments: Windows, Siding, and Commercial.
Our manufacturing processes are vertically integrated, which we believe provides cost and competitive advantages. As the leading manufacturer of vinyl windows, vinyl siding, metal roofing and wall systems and metal accessories, Cornerstone Building Brands combines a diverse portfolio of products with an expansive national footprint that includes over 21,000 employees at manufacturing, distribution and office locations primarily in North America.
Our sales and earnings are subject to both seasonal and cyclical trends and are influenced by general economic conditions, interest rates, the price of material costs relative to other building materials, the level of residential and nonresidential construction activity, repair and remodel demand and the availability and cost of financing for construction projects. Our sales normally are lower in the first and fourth fiscal quarters of each year compared to the second and third fiscal quarters because of unfavorable weather conditions for construction and typical business planning cycles affecting construction.
CD&R Merger
On July 25, 2022, the Company, Camelot Return Intermediate Holdings, LLC (“Parent”) and Camelot Return Merger Sub, Inc. (“Merger Sub”) completed the transactions contemplated by that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of March 5, 2022 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Parent and Merger Sub. Parent and Merger Sub are subsidiaries of investment funds managed by Clayton, Dubilier & Rice, LLC (“CD&R”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub merged with and into the Company (the “CD&R Merger”), with the Company surviving the Merger as a subsidiary of Parent (the “Surviving Corporation”). Prior to the completion of the CD&R Merger, CD&R and its affiliates collectively owned approximately 49% of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Company common stock”). As a result of the CD&R Merger, investment funds managed by CD&R became the indirect owners of all of the issued and outstanding shares of Company common stock that CD&R did not already own. With the completion of the CD&R Merger, shares of Company common stock were removed from trading on the NYSE and we became a privately held company.
Coil Coatings Business Divestiture
On June 28, 2022, the Company completed the sale of its coil coatings business to BlueScope Steel Limited in an all-cash transaction for $500 million, subject to customary adjustments. The transaction includes products sold under the Metal Coaters and Metal Prep brands. This strategic transaction positions the Company for further growth in large, deep markets and strengthens its financial flexibility. In connection with the transaction, the Company entered into long-term supply agreements to secure a continued supply of light gauge coil coating and painted hot roll steel. The coil coatings business results prior to the sale are reported within the Commercial segment.
Markets We Serve
Our products are available across several large and attractive end markets, including residential new construction, residential repair and remodel and low-rise non-residential construction. We believe that there are favorable underlying fundamental factors that will drive long-term growth across the end markets in which we operate. We also believe the recent COVID-19 pandemic has driven strong demand for residential repair and remodel activity, residential new construction and select segments of the low-rise non-residential construction market, such as distribution, warehouse, healthcare and educational facilities in suburban regions. We believe our business is well-positioned to benefit from broader societal and population trends favoring suburban regions, as employment and living preferences shift towards such regions.
Cornerstone Building Brands is deeply committed to the communities where our customers and employees live, work and play. We recognize that our customers are increasingly environmentally conscious in their purchasing behavior, and we believe our sustainable solutions favorably address these evolving consumer preferences. For example, certain products in our portfolio are high in recycled end content, virtually 100% recyclable at the end of their useful life and often manufactured to meet or exceed specified sustainability targets, such as ENERGY STAR and LEED certifications. We recognize that efficient use of recycled materials helps to conserve natural resources and reduces environmental impact, and we are committed to driving these sustainable practices throughout our business.

Net sales - Consolidated net sales for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 increased 28.8% and 26.4%, respectively, as compared to the same period last year. The net sales growth for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was primarily driven by disciplined pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation across all segments coupled with the impact from strategic acquisitions net of divestitures from portfolio optimization actions of $68.2 million and $113.3 million, respectively.
Gross profit % of net sales - The Company’s gross profit percentage was 22.1% and 21.7% for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, which was a 20 basis point decrease and a 30 basis point increase over the three and six months ended July 3, 2021. The improvement in gross profit as a percentage of net sales for the six months ended July 2, 2022 was driven by strong price mix net of inflation from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation, which offset manufacturing net inefficiencies and lower volume.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 12.2% and 13.7% during the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2021. The increase in the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was primarily driven by sales commissions and other variable compensation programs related to financial growth measures, merit increases, and additional personnel.
Restructuring and impairment charges, net for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was a gain of $1.7 million and $0.9 million, respectively, due to certain assets previously held for sale being sold at a gain in the second quarter of 2022, as compared to restructuring and impairment charges of $4.7 million and $6.5 million incurred during the three and six months ended July 3, 2021.
Strategic development and acquisition related costs increased $15.9 million and $17.4 million during the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 primarily due to increased strategic development activity related to the CD&R transaction and the divestiture of the coil coatings business.
Interest expense decreased $1.9 million and $14.3 million or 4.0% and 13.7% during the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, as compared to the three and six months ended July 3, 2021 primarily as a result of the actions taken in second quarter of 2021 (redemption of the $645 million 8.00% Senior Notes coupled with the refinancing of the Current Term Loan Facility).
Consolidated provision (benefit) for income taxes was an expense of $132.5 million and $166.9 million for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, as compared to a benefit of $1.1 million and $0.3 million for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, respectively. The change in the provision was primarily driven by improved financial results for the six months ended July 2, 2022 and the impact associated with the gain on divestiture and gain on legal settlement.
Segment Results of Operations
We report our segment information in the same way management internally organizes the business in assessing performance and making decisions regarding allocation of resources in accordance with ASC 280, Segment Reporting. We have determined that we have three reportable segments, organized and managed principally by the different industry sectors they serve. While the segments often operate using shared infrastructure, each reportable segment is managed to address specific customer needs in these diverse market sectors. We report all other business activities in Corporate and unallocated costs.
42


Corporate assets consist primarily of cash, investments, prepaid expenses, current and deferred taxes and property, plant and equipment associated with our headquarters in Cary, North Carolina and office in Houston, Texas. These items (and income and expenses related to these items) are not allocated to the operating segments. Corporate unallocated expenses primarily include share-based compensation expenses, restructuring charges, acquisition costs, gain on legal settlements, and other expenses related to executive, legal, finance, tax, treasury, human resources, information technology and strategic sourcing, and corporate travel expenses. Additional unallocated amounts primarily include non-operating items such as interest income, interest expense, loss on extinguishment of debt and other income (expense).
One of the primary measurements used by management to measure the financial performance of each segment is Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss), adjusted for the following items: income tax (benefit) expense; depreciation and amortization; interest expense, net; restructuring and impairment charges; strategic development and acquisition related costs; gain on legal settlements; share-based compensation expense; non-cash gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions; other non-cash items; and other items.
The presentation of segment results below includes a reconciliation of the changes for each segment reported in accordance with U.S. GAAP to a pro forma basis to allow investors and the Company to meaningfully evaluate the percentage change on a comparable basis from period to period. The pro forma financial information is based on the historical information of Cornerstone Building Brands, which includes historical information of Prime Windows LLC (“Prime Windows”), which the Company acquired on April 30, 2021; Cascade Windows, Inc. (“Cascade Windows”), which the Company acquired on August 20, 2021; the insulated metals panels (“IMP”) and the roll-up sheet doors (“DBCI”) businesses, which the Company divested on August 9, 2021 and August 18, 2021, respectively, Union Corrugating Company Holdings, Inc. (“UCC”), which the Company acquired on December 3, 2021, and the coil coatings business, which the Company divested on June 28, 2022. The pro forma financial information does not give effect to the potential impact of current financial conditions, any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies or cost savings that may result from the Prime Windows, Cascade Windows and UCC acquisitions; or any integration costs; and from the IMP, DBCI and coil coatings business divestitures. Pro forma balances are not necessarily indicative of operating results had the Prime Windows, Cascade Windows and UCC acquisitions and the IMP, DBCI and coil coatings business divestitures occurred on January 1, 2021 or of future results.
See Note 21 — Segment Information in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for more information on our segments.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Set forth below are certain “non-GAAP financial measures” as defined under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Management believes the use of such non-GAAP financial measures assists investors in understanding the ongoing operating performance of the Company by presenting the financial results between periods on a more comparable basis. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an alternative to reported results determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We have included reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and provided in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The following tables present a comparison of net sales as reported to pro forma net sales for Cornerstone Building Brands as if the Prime Windows, Cascade Windows and UCC acquisitions, and the IMP, DBCI and coil coatings business divestitures had each occurred on January 1, 2021 rather than the respective date referenced above for each transaction:

(2)Primarily includes $4.7 million and $16.2 million of share-based compensation for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022, respectively, and $5.3 million and $8.6 million of share-based compensation and $8.6 million and $11.6 million of cost associated with debt refinancing transactions for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021, respectively.
Pro forma net sales for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 were 28.2% and 25.3% higher, respectively, than pro forma net sales in the same periods a year ago. Disciplined pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation drove a 28.5% increase in pro forma net sales as compared to the same period last year while volumes were 0.3% lower for the quarter. Year-to-date, price accounted for 30.0% increase in pro forma net sales versus the prior period, which was partially offset by lower volume of 4.7%.
Operating income for the three months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $554.9 million as compared to $96.8 million for the three months ended July 3, 2021, primarily due to the gain on divestiture of the coil coatings business of $394.2 million. Operating income for the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $734.2 million as compared to operating income of $152.0 million for the six months ended July 3, 2021, primarily as a result of the gain on divestiture of the coil coatings business $394.2 million, gain on legal settlements of $76.6 million, incremental operating income from acquisitions, net of divestitures

made in second half of 2021 (Prime, Cascade, and UCC), and strong price mix net of inflation that offset manufacturing net inefficiencies, higher SG&A expenses and lower volume.
Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for three months ended July 2, 2022 was $236.7 million or 13.6% of pro forma net sales, an improvement of 10 basis points from the pro forma period a year ago. On a year-to-date basis, pro forma adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of pro forma net sales increased 90 basis points versus the comparable period. Second quarter pro forma adjusted EBITDA increased $52.9 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to strong price mix net of inflation of $119.5 million resulting from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation. This was partially offset by $36.8 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies resulting from the challenges brought on by supply chain disruptions and labor constraints, from higher SG&A expenses of $27.0 million, and $2.8 million from lower volume. Year-to-date pro forma adjusted EBITDA increased $106.5 million compared to the prior year period primarily due to strong price mix net of inflation of $251.2 million resulting from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation. This was partially offset by $70 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies resulting from the challenges brought on by supply chain disruptions and labor constraints, from higher SG&A expenses of $43.1 million, and $31.6 million from lower volume.

(1)Reflects the impact of the net sales and Adjusted EBITDA of Prime Windows LLC and Cascade Windows Inc., which were acquired on April 30, 2021 and August 20, 2021, respectively.
Pro forma net sales for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 were 23.4% and 21.7% higher, respectively, than pro forma net sales in the same periods a year ago. Disciplined pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation drove a 24.1% increase in pro forma net sales as compared to the same period last year while volumes were 0.7% lower for the quarter. Year-to-date, price accounted for a 23.3% increase in pro forma net sales, which was partially offset by lower volume of 1.6%.
Operating income for three months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $67.0 million as compared to $38.8 million in the same period a year ago. Operating income for the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $113.2 million as compared to $68.1 million for the six months ended July 3, 2021. The increase in operating income for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was due to positive price mix net of inflation, which more than offset the manufacturing net inefficiencies from supply chain disruptions and higher costs to serve our customers, higher SG&A expenses, and higher depreciation and amortization expense.
Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended July 2, 2022 was $105.1 million or 13.5% of pro forma net sales, an improvement of 90 basis points from the pro forma period a year ago. Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA increased $25.7 million over the prior year quarter, primarily due to $66.7 million of positive price mix net of inflation from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation that was partially offset by $30.8 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies, $9.7 million from an increase in SG&A expenses, and $0.5 million from lower volume. On a year-to-date basis, pro forma Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of pro forma net sales increased 60 basis points versus the comparable period.

Operating income for the six months ended July 2, 2022 decreased to $77.6 million, as compared to $80.9 million for the six months ended July 3, 2021. The decrease in operating income for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was due to lower volume, manufacturing net inefficiencies, higher SG&A, and an increase in strategic development and acquisition related costs. These were partially offset by positive price mix net of inflation and lower depreciation and amortization expense.
Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended July 2, 2022 was $78.7 million or 18.7% of net sales, a decrease of 320 basis points from the pro forma period a year ago. Adjusted EBITDA decreased $0.8 million over the prior year quarter, primarily due to $8.3 million from lower volume, $2.4 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies from increased costs to serve customers and from supply chain and labor disruptions, and $2.1 million from increased SG&A expenses. Partially offsetting these increased costs was positive price mix net of inflation of $12.0 million from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation. On a year-to-date basis, Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales decreased 220 basis points versus the comparable period. Year-to-date Adjusted EBITDA decreased $1.4 million over the prior year comparable period primarily due primarily due to $23.0 million from lower volume, $4.6 million from increased SG&A expenses, and $4.1 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies. Partially offsetting these cost increases was positive price mix net of inflation of $30.3 million from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation.

Pro forma net sales for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 were 48.1% and 44.9% higher, respectively, than in the same periods a year ago, driven by 42.4% from disciplined pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation along with higher volume of 5.7% for the quarter. Year-to-date, price accounted for 49.8% increase in pro forma net sales, which was partially offset by lower volume of 4.9%.
Operating income for the three months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $493.0 million, as compared to $53.3 million for the three months ended July 3, 2021, primarily due to the gain on the divestiture of the coil coaters business, positive price mix net of inflation and higher volume partially offset by higher SG&A expense and manufacturing net inefficiencies. Operating income for the six months ended July 2, 2022 increased to $574.0 million, as compared to $94.9 million for the six months ended July 3, 2021. The increase was primarily due to gain on the divestiture of the coil coaters business and positive price mix net of inflation, which more than offset higher SG&A expense, manufacturing net inefficiencies from supply chain disruptions and higher costs to serve our customers, and lower volume.
Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended July 2, 2022 was $87.0 or 15.9% of pro forma net sales, an increase of 110 basis points from the pro forma period a year ago. Pro forma Adjusted EBITDA increased $32.2 million over the prior year quarter, primarily due to $40.9 million of positive price mix net of inflation from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation combined with $5.9 million from higher volume. Partially offsetting these were an $11.0 million increase in SG&A expenses and $3.6 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies. On a year-to-date basis, pro forma Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of pro forma net sales increased 330 basis points versus the comparable period. Year-to-date, pro forma adjusted EBITDA increased $73.8 million over the prior year comparable period primarily due to $106.8 million of positive price mix net of inflation from pricing actions to offset inflationary impacts and support value differentiation that was partially offset by $17.3 million from an increase in SG&A expenses, $8.5 million from manufacturing net inefficiencies, and $7.2 million from lower volume impact.

Unallocated operating gain (loss) includes items that are not directly attributed to or allocated to our reporting segments. Such items include legal costs, corporate payroll, and unallocated finance and accounting expenses. The unallocated operating loss for the three months ended July 2, 2022 increased by $6.6 million or 13.6% as compared to the three months ended July 3, 2021 primarily due to an increase in strategic development and acquisition costs partially offset by lower SG&A expenses. Unallocated operating loss was $30.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022, as compared to a $92.0 million unallocated operating loss during the six months ended July 3, 2021. The change is primarily due to a $76.5 million gain on legal settlement during the six months ended July 2, 2022, partially offset by an increase in strategic development and acquisition related costs related to the CD&R transaction and the coil coatings business divestiture. Unallocated operating gain (loss) includes share-based compensation expense of $4.7 million and $5.3 million for the three months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, respectively, and $16.2 million and $8.6 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021, respectively.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
General
Our ongoing principal source of funds is cash generated from operations, supplemented by borrowings against our asset-based lending and revolving credit facility, as necessary. We typically invest our excess cash in various overnight investments that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. federal government. Our cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash balances increased from $396.7 million as of December 31, 2021 to $1,121.5 million as of July 2, 2022. The following table summarizes our consolidated cash flows for the six months ended July 2, 2022 and July 3, 2021 (in thousands):

Operating Activities
During the six months ended July 2, 2022, the Company generated strong cash flow from operations of $293.8 million, an increase of $305.5 million from the prior year. The improvement was driven by legal settlement proceeds of $76.5 million, higher earnings generation, and effective working capital management.

The decrease in cash used in working capital between periods was primarily driven by the investments in net working capital during the first half of 2021 to support the strong demand recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and increased valuations from rising commodity costs and other inflationary aspects.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities was $461.1 million during the six months ended July 2, 2022 compared to $141.3 million used in investing activities during the six months ended July 3, 2021. During the six months ended July 2, 2022, we received proceeds of $500.0 million from the divestiture of the coil coatings business, received $7.2 million as a settlement of working capital related to the 2021 sale of the IMP business, received $4.4 million in working capital settlements from prior acquisitions, and used $60.2 million for capital expenditures. During the six months ended July 3, 2021, we paid approximately $94.4 million toward acquisitions and used $47.6 million for capital expenditures.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $30.1 million during the six months ended July 2, 2022 compared to $431.4 million used in financing activities during the six months ended July 3, 2021. During the six months ended July 2, 2022, we paid $7.3 million for the repurchase of an aggregate principal amount of $11.0 million of our 6.125% Senior Notes under a 10b5-1 trading plan and paid quarterly installments of $13.0 million on the Current Term Loan Facility. During the six months ended July 3, 2021, we borrowed $108.4 million on our Current Term Loan Facility, borrowed $160.0 million on our Current ABL Facility, paid $670.8 million to redeem the 8.00% Senior Notes and paid quarterly installments of $12.9 million on the Current Term Loan Facility.
Debt
Below is a reconciliation of the Company’s net debt (in thousands) as of the dates indicated. Management considers net debt to be more representative of the Company’s financial position than total debt due to the amount of cash and cash equivalents held by the Company and the ability to utilize such cash and cash equivalents to reduce debt if needed.

During the second quarter of 2022, the Company entered into a 10b5-1 trading plan to repurchase an aggregate principal amount of up to $100 million of its 6.125% Senior Notes. As of July 2, 2022, the Company repurchased an aggregate principal amount of $11.0 million of the 6.125% Senior Notes for $7.3 million in cash. The net carrying value of the extinguished debt, including unamortized debt discount and deferred financing costs, was $10.9 million, resulting in a $3.6 million gain on extinguishment of debt, which is included as a separate item in the consolidated statements of operations.
Subsequent to July 2, 2022, the Company completed the 10b5-1 trading plan by repurchasing an aggregate principal amount of $89.0 million for $63.3 million in cash. The Company anticipates recognizing a gain of approximately $24.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 after the write-off of associated unamortized debt discount and deferred financing costs.

We may not be successful in refinancing, extending the maturity or otherwise amending the terms of our outstanding indebtedness in the future because of market conditions, disruptions in the debt markets, our financial performance or other reasons. Furthermore, the terms of any refinancing, extension or amendment may not be as favorable as the current terms of our indebtedness. If we are not successful in refinancing our indebtedness or extending its maturity, we and our subsidiaries could face substantial liquidity problems and may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, sell assets, seek additional capital or restructure our indebtedness.
On July 25, 2022, in connection with the CD&R Merger, the Company (i) amended the Current ABL Credit Agreement to, among other things, upsize the facility to $850.0 million and add the FILO Facility, (ii) entered into the New Term Loan Facility in an aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million, and (iii) and issued $710.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 8.750% Senior Secured Notes due August 2028. Proceeds from the New Term Loan Facility and the Senior Secured Notes, together with other sources, were used to fund the consummation of the CD&R Merger.
For additional information, see Note 15 — Long-Term Debt and Note 23 —Subsequent Events in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements.
Additional Liquidity Considerations
We periodically evaluate our liquidity requirements, capital needs and availability of resources in view of inventory levels, expansion plans, debt service requirements and other operating cash needs. To meet our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, including payment of operating expenses and repayment of debt, we rely primarily on cash from operations. The following table summarizes key liquidity measures under the Current ABL Credit Agreement and the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement in effect as of July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021 (in thousands):

Plus: Cash and cash equivalents1,119,244 394,447 
Total Liquidity$1,799,244 $1,075,447 
We expect that cash generated from operations and our availability under the ABL Credit Facilities and Current Cash Flow Revolver will be sufficient to provide us the ability to fund our operations and to provide the increased working capital necessary to support our strategy and fund planned capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 and expansion when needed.
Consistent with our growth strategy, we evaluate potential acquisitions that would provide additional synergies in our Windows, Siding and Commercial segments. From time to time, we may enter into letters of intent or agreements to acquire assets or companies in these segments. The consummation of these transactions could require substantial cash payments and/or issuance of additional debt.
From time to time, we have used available funds to repurchase shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program. On March 7, 2018, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new stock repurchase program for the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of our outstanding Common Stock. Under this repurchase program, we are authorized to repurchase shares at times and in amounts that we deem appropriate in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. Shares repurchased are usually retired. There is no time limit on the duration of the program. During the six months ended July 2, 2022, there were no stock repurchases under the stock repurchase program. As of July 2, 2022, $49.1 million remained available for stock repurchases under the program. In addition to repurchases of shares of our common stock under our stock repurchase program, we also withhold shares of restricted stock to satisfy minimum tax withholding obligations arising in connection with the vesting of awards of share-based compensation.

We may from time to time take steps to reduce our debt or otherwise improve our financial position. These actions could include prepayments, open market debt repurchases, negotiated repurchases, other redemptions or retirements of outstanding debt, opportunistic refinancing of debt and raising additional capital. The amount of prepayments or the amount of debt that may be refinanced, repurchased or otherwise retired, if any, will depend on market conditions, trading levels of our debt, our cash position, compliance with debt covenants and other considerations. Our affiliates may also purchase our debt from time to time through open market purchases or other transactions. In such cases, our debt may not be retired, in which case we would continue to pay interest in accordance with the terms of the debt, and we would continue to reflect the debt as outstanding on our consolidated balance sheets.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES
Critical accounting estimates are those that are most important to the portrayal of our financial position and results of operations. These estimates require our most subjective judgments about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Our most critical accounting estimates include those that pertain to accounting for acquisitions, intangible assets and goodwill; warranty; and income taxes, which are described in Item 7 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.
Prices for our raw material inputs are influenced by numerous factors beyond our control, including general economic conditions, domestically and internationally, the availability of raw materials, competition, labor costs, freight and transportation costs, production costs, import duties and other trade restrictions.
Windows and Siding Businesses
We are subject to market risk with respect to the pricing of our principal raw materials, which include PVC resin, aluminum and glass. If prices of these raw materials were to increase dramatically, we may not be able to pass such increases on to our customers and, as a result, gross margins could decline significantly. We manage the exposure to commodity pricing risk by increasing our selling prices for corresponding material cost increases, continuing to diversify our product mix, strategic buying programs and vendor partnering. The average market price for PVC resin was estimated to have increased approximately 20.0% for the six months ended July 2, 2022 compared to the six months ended July 3, 2021.
Commercial Business
We are subject to market risk exposure related to volatility in the price of steel. For the six months ended July 2, 2022, material costs (predominantly steel costs) constituted 62% of our Commercial segment’s cost of sales. Our business is heavily dependent on the price and supply of steel. Our various products are fabricated from steel produced by mills to forms including bars, plates, structural shapes, sheets, hot-rolled coils and galvanized or Galvalume® — coated coils (Galvalume® is a registered trademark of BIEC International, Inc.). The steel industry is highly cyclical in nature, and steel prices have been volatile in recent years and may remain volatile in the future.
With material costs (predominantly steel costs) accounting for 62% of our Commercial segment’s cost of sales for the six months ended July 2, 2022, a one percent change in the cost of steel could have resulted in a pre-tax impact on cost of sales of $5.3 million for the six months ended July 2, 2022. The impact to our financial results of operations of such an increase would be significantly dependent on the competitive environment and the costs of other alternative building products, which could impact our ability to pass on these higher costs.
Other Commodity Risks
In addition to market risk exposure related to the volatility in the price of our raw materials, we are subject to market risk exposure related to volatility in the price of natural gas. As a result, we occasionally enter into both index-priced and fixed-price contracts for the purchase of natural gas. We have evaluated these contracts to determine whether the contracts are derivative instruments. Certain contracts that meet the criteria for characterization as a derivative instrument may be exempted from hedge accounting treatment as normal purchases and normal sales and, therefore, these forward contracts are not marked to market. At July 2, 2022, all our contracts for the purchase of natural gas met the scope exemption for normal purchases and normal sales.
Interest Rates
We are subject to market risk exposure related to changes in interest rates on our Current Cash Flow Facilities, ABL Facilities and our New Term Loan Facilities, which provide for borrowings of up to $2,715.0 million on the Current Cash Flow Facilities, up to $850.0 million on the Current ABL Facility, $95.0 million on the FILO Facility and an original aggregate principal amount of $300.0 million under the New Term Loan Facility. These instruments bear interest at an agreed upon percentage point spread from either LIBOR, term SOFR or an alternative rate. Assuming the Current Cash Flow Revolver is fully drawn, each quarter point increase or decrease in the interest rate would change our interest expense by $6.8 million per year for the Current Cash Flow Facilities. Assuming the Current ABL Facility and FILO Facility are fully drawn, each quarter point increase or decrease in the interest rate would change our interest expense by $2.4 million per year. Based on the initial aggregate principal amount of the New Term Loan Facility, each quarter point increase or decrease in the interest rate would change our interest expense by $0.8 million. The fair value of our Current Term Loan Facility at July 2, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was $2,118.2 million and $2,570.8 million, respectively, compared to the face value of $2,567.5 million and $2,580.5 million, respectively. In April 2021, we entered into cash flow interest rate swap hedge contracts for a total notional amount of $1.5 billion to mitigate the exposure risk of our floating interest rate debt. The interest rate swaps effectively convert a portion of the floating rate interest payment into a fixed rate payment. At July 2, 2022, our cash flow hedge swap contracts had a fair value asset of $98.7 million that is recorded in other assets, net, and a fair value liability related to the financing component of the interest rate swaps of $49.9 million of which $36.8 million is recorded as a non-current liability and $13.1 million is recorded in accrued expenses on our consolidated balance sheet.
See Note 15 — Long-Term Debt and Note 16 Derivatives in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for information on the material terms of our long-term debt and interest rate swaps.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rates
We are exposed to the effect of exchange rate fluctuations on the U.S. dollar value of foreign currency denominated operating revenue and expenses.
The functional currency for our Canadian operations is the Canadian dollar. Translation adjustments resulting from translating the functional currency financial statements into U.S. dollar equivalents are reported separately in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) in stockholders’ equity. The net foreign currency exchange gain (loss) included in net income for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was $(0.3) million and $0.6 million, respectively, and $0.0 million and $0.3 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021. Net foreign currency translation adjustment, net of tax, and included in other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was $(6.3) million and $(1.5) million, respectively, and was $4.6 million and $10.7 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021.
The functional currency for our Mexico operations is the U.S. dollar. Adjustments resulting from the remeasurement of the local currency financial statements into the U.S. dollar functional currency, which uses a combination of current and historical exchange rates, are included in net income (loss) in the current period. Net foreign currency remeasurement gain (loss) for the three and six months ended July 2, 2022 was $0.0 million and $0.5 million, respectively, and was $0.2 million and $(0.1) million, respectively, for the three and six months ended July 3, 2021.
We have entered into foreign currency forward contracts with a financial institution to hedge primarily inventory purchases in Canada. At July 2, 2022, we have a total notional amount of $41.9 million hedged at fixed USD/CAD rates ranging from 1.2417 to 1.2600 with value dates through March 2023. In the future, we may enter into additional foreign currency hedging contracts, to further mitigate the exposure risk of currency fluctuation against the Canadian dollar and/or the Mexican peso. See Note 16 — Derivatives in the notes to the unaudited consolidated financial statements for information on our currency hedges.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures.
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management, with the participation of our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 2, 2022. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding the required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Management believes that our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and based on the evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of July 2, 2022, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer concluded that, as of such date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at such reasonable assurance level. 
Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We are currently in the process of assessing the internal controls of Union Corrugating Company Holdings, Inc. (“UCC”) and Cascade Windows Inc. (“Cascade Windows”) as part of the post-close acquisition integration process. UCC and Cascade Windows have been excluded from our assessment of internal control over financial reporting as of July 2, 2022. The total assets and net sales excluded from management’s assessment represent 9.6% and 7.6%, respectively, of the consolidated financial statements as of and for the six months ended July 2, 2022.
There has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended July 2, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
 
Item 1. Legal Proceedings.
See Part I, Item 1, “Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements”, Note 22 — Contingencies, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 1A. Risk Factors.
In addition to the information set forth in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, you should carefully consider the factors discussed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 2, 2022. The risks disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 2, 2022, and information provided elsewhere in this report, could materially affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known or we currently deem to be immaterial may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition or results of operations. Except for such additional information and the risk factors set forth below, we believe there have been no other material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 other than as set forth in our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended April 2, 2022.
The Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement, the Current ABL Credit Agreement, the New Term Loan Credit Agreement, and the indenture governing the terms of our 8.750% Senior Secured Notes (the “2028 Indenture”) and the indenture governing the terms of our 6.125% Senior Notes (the “2029 Indenture”) contain restrictions and limitations that could significantly impact our ability and the ability of most of our subsidiaries to engage in certain business and financial transactions.
The Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement, the Current ABL Credit Agreement, the New Term Loan Credit Agreement, the 2028 Indenture and the 2029 Indenture contain restrictive covenants that, among other things, limit our ability and the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to:
incur additional indebtedness or issue certain preferred shares;
pay dividends, redeem stock or make other distributions in respect of capital stock;
repurchase, prepay or redeem our subordinated indebtedness;
make investments;
incur additional liens;
transfer or sell assets;
create restrictions on the ability of our restricted subsidiaries to pay dividends to us or make other intercompany transfers;
make negative pledges;
consolidate, merge, sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of our assets;
enter into certain transactions with our affiliates; and
designate subsidiaries as unrestricted subsidiaries.
In addition, the Current Cash Flow Revolver requires us to maintain a maximum total secured leverage ratio under certain circumstances, and the ABL Facilities require us to maintain a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio under certain circumstances. The Current ABL Credit Agreement also contains other covenants customary for asset-based facilities of this nature. Our ability to borrow additional amounts under the Current Cash Flow Revolver and the ABL Facilities depends upon satisfaction of these covenants. Events beyond our control can affect our ability to fulfill these covenants.
We are required to make mandatory pre-payments under the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement and the Current ABL Credit Agreement upon the occurrence of certain events, including the sale of assets and the issuance of debt, in each case subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement and the Current ABL Credit Agreement.
54


In addition, under certain circumstances and subject to the limitations set forth in the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement, the Current Term Loan Facility may require us to make prepayments of the term loans to the extent we generate excess positive cash flow each year.
Any future financing arrangements entered into by us may also contain similar covenants and restrictions. As a result of these covenants and restrictions, we may be limited in our ability to plan for or react to market conditions or to meet extraordinary capital needs or otherwise restricted in our activities. These covenants and restrictions could also adversely affect our ability to finance our future operations or capital needs or to engage in other business activities that would be in our interest.
Our failure to comply with obligations under the Current Cash Flow Credit Agreement, the Current ABL Credit Agreement, the New Term Loan Facility, the 2028 Indenture and the 2029 Indenture as well as others contained in any future debt instruments from time to time, may result in an event of default under our current debt facilities, as applicable. A default, if not cured or waived, may permit acceleration of our indebtedness. If our indebtedness is accelerated, we cannot be certain that we will have sufficient funds available to pay the accelerated indebtedness or that we will have the ability to refinance the accelerated indebtedness on terms favorable to us or at all. If we are forced to refinance these borrowings on less favorable terms or cannot refinance these borrowings, our business, results of operations, financial condition and cash flows could be adversely affected.
Our ABL Facilities and our New Term Loan Facility bear a variable rate of interest that is based on the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”) which may have consequences for us that cannot be reasonably predicted and may adversely affect our liquidity and financial condition.
Borrowings under our ABL Facilities and our New Term Loan Facility bear interest at a rate per annum of either, at our election, (i) term SOFR plus a margin or (ii) an alternative base rate plus a margin. Although SOFR has been endorsed by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee as its preferred replacement for the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), it remains uncertain whether or when SOFR or other alternative reference rates will be widely accepted by lenders as the replacement for LIBOR. This may, in turn, impact the liquidity of the SOFR loan market, and SOFR itself. Since the initial publication of SOFR, daily changes in the rate have, on occasion, been more volatile than daily changes in comparable benchmark or market rates, and SOFR over time may bear little or no relation to the historical actual or historical indicative data. SOFR is observed and backward-looking, which stands in contrast with LIBOR under the current methodology, which is an estimated forward-looking rate and relies, to some degree, on the expert judgment of submitting panel members. It is possible that the volatility of and uncertainty around SOFR as a LIBOR replacement rate and the applicable credit adjustment would result in higher borrowing costs for us, and would adversely affect our liquidity, financial condition, and earnings

(2)On March 7, 2018, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a stock repurchase program for up to an aggregate of $50.0 million of the Company’s Common Stock. Under this repurchase program, the Company is authorized to repurchase shares at times and in amounts that we deem appropriate in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations. Shares repurchased are usually retired. There is no time limit on the duration of the program. At July 2, 2022, $49.1 million remained available for stock repurchases under the program.

Such instrument or instruments (and the   action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of   the Holders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument   or of a writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and   (subject to Section 701) conclusive in favor of the Trustee, the Company, and any other obligor   upon the Notes, if made in the manner provided in this Section 108.   (b) The fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or   writing may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the certificate of   any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take acknowledgments of deeds,   certifying that the individual signing such instrument or writing acknowledged to him the   execution thereof.

  70      to, the giving or making of any notice, declaration, request or direction referred to in the next   paragraph. If any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding   Notes on such record date (or their duly designated proxies), and no other Holders, shall be   entitled to take the relevant action, whether or not such Persons remain Holders after such   record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder unless taken on or prior   to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal amount of Outstanding   Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed to prevent the   Company from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has previously   been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall   automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in   this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the   requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken. Promptly   after any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Company, at its expense, shall cause   notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration Date   to be given to the Trustee in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in   Section 110.   (ii) The Trustee may set any day as a record date for the purpose of   determining the Holders of Outstanding Notes entitled to join in the giving or making of (A) any   Notice of Default, (B) any declaration of acceleration referred to in Section 602, (C) any request   to institute proceedings referred to in Section 607(ii) or (D) any direction referred to in   Section 612, in each case with respect to Notes. If any record date is set pursuant to this   paragraph, the Holders of Outstanding Notes on such record date, and no other Holders, shall be   entitled to join in such notice, declaration, request or direction, whether or not such Holders   remain Holders after such record date; provided that no such action shall be effective hereunder   unless taken on or prior to the applicable Expiration Date by Holders of the requisite principal   amount of Outstanding Notes on such record date. Nothing in this paragraph shall be construed   to prevent the Trustee from setting a new record date for any action for which a record date has   previously been set pursuant to this paragraph (whereupon the record date previously set shall   automatically and with no action by any Person be cancelled and of no effect), and nothing in   this paragraph shall be construed to render ineffective any action taken by Holders of the   requisite principal amount of Outstanding Notes on the date such action is taken. Promptly after   any record date is set pursuant to this paragraph, the Trustee, at the Company’s expense, shall   cause notice of such record date, the proposed action by Holders and the applicable Expiration   Date to be given to the Company in writing and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth   in Section 110.   (iii) With respect to any record date set pursuant to this Section 108, the party   hereto that sets such record dates may designate any day as the “Expiration Date” and from time   to time may change the Expiration Date to any earlier or later day; provided that no such change   shall be effective unless notice of the proposed new Expiration Date is given to the Company or   the Trustee, whichever such party is not setting a record date pursuant to this Section 108(e) in   writing, and to each Holder of Notes in the manner set forth in Section 110, on or prior to the   existing Expiration Date. If an Expiration Date is not designated with respect to any record date     
  71      set pursuant to this Section 108, the party hereto that set such record date shall be deemed to   have initially designated the 180th day after such record date as the Expiration Date with respect   thereto, subject to its right to change the Expiration Date as provided in this paragraph.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Expiration Date shall be later than the 180th day after the   applicable record date.   (iv) Without limiting the foregoing, a Holder entitled hereunder to take any   action hereunder with regard to any particular Note may do so with regard to all or any part of   the principal amount of such Note or by one or more duly appointed agents each of which may   do so pursuant to such appointment with regard to all or any part of such principal amount.   (v) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, a Holder, including the   Depositary, that is the Holder of a Global Note, may make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies   duly appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver   or other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders, and the   Depositary, as the Holder of a Global Note, may provide its proxy or proxies to the beneficial   owners of interests in any such Global Note through such depositary’s standing instructions and   customary practices.   (vi) The Company may fix a record date for the purpose of determining the   persons who are beneficial owners of interests in any Global Note held by the Depositary entitled   under the procedures of such depositary to make, give or take, by a proxy or proxies duly   appointed in writing, any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or   other action provided in this Indenture to be made, given or taken by Holders. If such a record   date is fixed, the Holders on such record date or their duly appointed proxy or proxies, and only   such persons, shall be entitled to make, give or take such request, demand, authorization   direction, notice consent, waiver or other action, whether or not such Holders remain Holders   after such record date. No such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent,   waiver or other action shall be valid or effective if made, given or taken more than 90 days after   such record date.   Section 109. Notices, Etc., to Trustee, Note Collateral Agent and Company.   Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Holders or other   document provided or permitted by this Indenture to be made upon, given or furnished to, or   filed with,   (1) the Trustee by any Holder, by the Note Collateral Agent or by the   Company or by any other obligor upon the Notes shall be sufficient for every purpose   hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Trustee at   Wilmington Trust, National Association, 50 South Sixth Street, Suite 1290, Minneapolis,   Minnesota, Attention: Camelot Return Merger Sub, Inc. Notes Administrator (telephone:   (612) 217-5667; facsimile: (612) 217-5651), or at any other address furnished in writing   to the Company and the Note Collateral Agent by the Trustee,     
 
  72      (2) the Note Collateral Agent by any Holder, by the Trustee or by the   Company or by any obligor upon the Notes shall be sufficient for every purpose   hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Note Collateral   Agent at Wilmington Trust, National Association, 50 South Sixth Street, Suite 1290,   Minneapolis, Minnesota, Attention: Camelot Return Merger Sub, Inc. Note Collateral   Agent (telephone: (612) 217-5667; facsimile: (612) 217-5651), or at any other address   furnished in writing to the Trustee and the Company by the Note Collateral Agent,   (3) the Company by the Trustee, by the Note Collateral Agent or by any   Holder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if in writing and mailed, first class   postage prepaid, to the Company at Cornerstone Building Brands, Inc., 5020 Weston   Parkway, Cary, North Carolina 27513, Attention: Mimi Siracusa (facsimile: (281) 897-   7379); with copies to Debevoise & Plimpton LLP, 919 Third Avenue, New York, New   York 10022, Attention: Jeffrey E. Ross, or at any other address furnished in writing to   the Trustee and the Note Collateral Agent by the Company, or   (4) the Company, the Note Collateral Agent or the Trustee, by notice to the   others, may designate additional or different addresses for subsequent notices or   communications.   Section 110. Notices to Holders; Waiver. Where this Indenture provides for   notice to Holders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein   expressly provided) if in writing and mailed, first class postage prepaid, or by overnight air   courier guaranteeing next day delivery, to each Holder affected by such event, at such Holder’s   address as it appears in the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the   earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Holders is   given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice, nor any defect in any notice so mailed, to   any particular Holder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Holders.   Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be   waived in writing by the Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event,   and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Holders shall be   filed with the Trustee, but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any   action taken in reliance upon such waiver.   In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service, or by reason of any   other cause, it shall be impossible to mail notice of any event as required by any provision of this   Indenture, then such notification as shall be made with the approval of the Trustee (such   approval not to be unreasonably withheld) shall constitute a sufficient notification for every   purpose hereunder.   Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or any Note, where this   Indenture or any Note provides for notice of any event (including any notice of redemption) to a   Holder of a Global Note (whether by mail or otherwise), such notice shall be sufficiently given if     
  73      given to the Depositary for such Note (or its designee) pursuant to the customary procedures of   such Depositary (including delivery by electronic mail).   Section 111. Effect of Headings and Table of Contents. The Article and Section   headings herein and the Table of Contents are for convenience only and shall not affect the   construction hereof.   Section 112. Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in this   Indenture by the Company shall bind its respective successors and assigns, whether so expressed   or not. All agreements of the Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors. All agreements   of the Note Collateral Agent in this Indenture shall bind its successors.   Section 113. Separability Clause. In case any provision in this Indenture or in   the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality and enforceability of the   remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.   Section 114. Benefits of Indenture. Nothing in this Indenture or in the Notes,   express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties hereto and their successors   hereunder, any Paying Agent and the Holders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy   or claim under this Indenture.   Section 115. GOVERNING LAW. THIS INDENTURE AND THE NOTES   SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS   OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE TRUSTEE, THE NOTE COLLATERAL AGENT,   THE COMPANY, ANY OTHER OBLIGOR IN RESPECT OF THE NOTES, EACH   GUARANTOR AND (BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOTES) THE HOLDERS AGREE   TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR STATE   COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK   IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS   INDENTURE OR THE NOTES.   Section 116. Legal Holidays. In any case where any Interest Payment Date,   Redemption Date or Stated Maturity of any Note shall not be a Business Day at any Place of   Payment, then (notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture or of the Notes) payment of   interest or principal and premium (if any) need not be made at such Place of Payment on such   date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day at such Place of Payment with the   same force and effect as if made on the Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, or at the   Stated Maturity, and no interest shall accrue on such payment for the intervening period.   Section 117. No Personal Liability of Directors, Officers, Employees,   Incorporators and Stockholders. No director, officer, employee, incorporator or stockholder of   Holdings, the Company, any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Subsidiary of any thereof shall have   any liability for any obligation of Holdings, the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor under this   Indenture, the Notes, the Parent Guarantee, any Subsidiary Guarantee, the Note Security   Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements or for any claim based on, in respect of, or by reason     
 
  74      of, any such obligation or its creation. Each Noteholder, by accepting the Notes, waives and   releases all such liability. The waiver and release are part of the consideration for issuance of the   Notes.   Section 118. Exhibits and Schedules. All exhibits and schedules attached hereto   are by this reference made a part hereof with the same effect as if herein set forth in full.   Section 119. Counterparts. This Indenture may be executed in any number of   counterparts, each of which shall be an original; but such counterparts shall together constitute   but one and the same instrument.   Section 120. Force Majeure. To the extent permitted by the TIA, in no event   shall the Trustee or the Note Collateral Agent be responsible or liable for any failure or delay in   the performance of its obligations hereunder arising out of or caused by, directly or indirectly,   forces beyond its control, including, without limitation, strikes, work stoppages, accidents, acts   of war or terrorism, epidemics or pandemics, civil or military disturbances, nuclear or natural   catastrophes or acts of God, and interruptions, loss or malfunctions of utilities, communications   or computer (software and hardware) services or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank   wire or telex or other wire or communication facility (it being understood that the Trustee or the   Note Collateral Agent shall use reasonable best efforts which are consistent with accepted   practices in the banking industry to resume performance as soon as practicable under the   circumstances).   Section 121. Limited Condition Transaction. In connection with any action   being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction, for purposes of determining   compliance with any provision of this Indenture which requires that no Default, Event of Default   or specified Default or Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would   result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of the Company, be   deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or specified Default or Event of   Default, as applicable, exists on the date (x) a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition   Transaction is entered into, (y) in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom   City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws, rules or   regulations in any other applicable jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of   a firm intention to make an offer in respect of a target of a Limited Condition Transaction is   made (or the equivalent notice under such equivalent laws, rules or regulations in such other   applicable jurisdiction) or (z) notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and   discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given. For the   avoidance of doubt, if the Company has exercised its option under the first sentence of this   Section 121, and any Default, Event of Default or specified Default or Event of Default, as   applicable, occurs following the date (x) a definitive agreement for the applicable Limited   Condition Transaction was entered into, (y) in connection with an acquisition to which the   United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws,   rules or regulations in any other applicable jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7   announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer in respect of a target of a Limited Condition     
  75      Transaction is made (or the equivalent notice under such equivalent laws, rules or regulations in   such other applicable jurisdiction) or (z) notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance,   satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is   given and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default,   Event of Default or specified Default or Event of Default, as applicable, shall be deemed to not   have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in   connection with such Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.   In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition   Transaction, for purposes of:   (i) determining compliance with any provision of this Indenture which   requires the calculation of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, the Consolidated Secured Leverage   Ratio or the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio or any other financial measure;   (ii) testing baskets set forth in this Indenture (including baskets based on Four   Quarter Consolidated EBITDA (or a percentage thereof)); or   (iii) any other determination as to whether any such Limited Condition   Transaction and any related transactions (including any financing thereof) complies with the   covenants or agreements contained in this Indenture;   in each case, at the option of the Company (the Company’s election to exercise   such option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the date   of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the   date (x) a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is entered into, (y) in   connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and   Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws, rules or regulations in any other applicable   jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7 announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer in   respect of a target of a Limited Condition Transaction is made (or the equivalent notice under   such equivalent laws, rules or regulations in such other applicable jurisdiction) or (z) notice of   redemption, repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness,   Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”), and if, after   giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other transactions to be   entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and   Liens and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred at the beginning of the most recent   four consecutive Fiscal Quarters of the Company ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which   consolidated financial statements of the Company (or, any Parent whose financial statements   satisfy the Company’s reporting obligations under Section 405) are available, the Company   could have taken such action on the relevant LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio,   basket or amount, such ratio, basket or amount shall be deemed to have been complied with;   provided that (1) if financial statements for one or more subsequent Fiscal Quarters or fiscal   years shall have been delivered pursuant to the Company’s reporting obligations under Section   405, the Company may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-determine all such ratios, baskets or   amounts on the basis of such financial statements, in which case, such date of redetermination     
 
  76      shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable effective date for purposes of such ratios, baskets   or amounts and (2) except as contemplated in the foregoing clause (1), compliance with such   ratios, baskets or amounts (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined   or tested at any time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction   and any actions or transactions related thereto (including any Incurrence or Discharge of   Indebtedness and Liens and the use of proceeds thereof). For purposes of determining   compliance with any ratio, basket or amount on the applicable LCT Test Date, Consolidated   Interest Expense for purposes of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio will be calculated using an   assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin contained in any financing   commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness or, if no such indicative interest   margin exists, as determined by the Company in good faith, which determination shall be   conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Company has made an LCT Election and any of   the ratios, baskets or amounts for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test   Date are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to   fluctuations in exchange rates or in Consolidated EBITDA of the Company or the Person subject   to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate, at or prior to   the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios, baskets or amounts will not   be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the Company has made an   LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent   calculation of any ratio, basket or amount with respect to the Incurrence or Discharge of   Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments, Asset Dispositions, mergers, the   conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company or the   designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant LCT Test Date and prior   to the earlier of the date on which (1) such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated, (2)   the definitive agreement for, or firm offer in respect of, such Limited Condition Transaction (in   the case of an acquisition or Investment) is terminated or expires without consummation of such   Limited Condition Transaction or (3) such notice of redemption, repurchase, defeasance,   satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness, Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is   revoked or expires without consummation, any such ratio, basket or amount shall be calculated   on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in   connection therewith (including any Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and Liens and the   use of proceeds thereof) have been consummated.   Section 122. Division. Any reference herein to (i) a transfer, assignment, sale,   disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division of or by a limited   liability company or a limited partnership or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited   liability company or a limited partnership (collectively, a “Division”), as if it were a transfer,   assignment, sale or transfer, or similar term, as applicable, to a separate Person, and (ii) a merger,   consolidation, amalgamation or consolidation, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to the   division of or by a limited liability company or a limited partnership, or an allocation of assets to   a series of a limited liability company or a limited partnership, or the unwinding of such a   division or allocation, as if it were a merger, consolidation, amalgamation or consolidation or   similar term, as applicable, with a separate Person.     
  77      Section 123. Intercreditor Agreements. Each Holder, by its acceptance of Notes,   (a) consents to the subordination of Liens on Collateral provided for in the Base Intercreditor   Agreement and the Junior Priority Intercreditor Agreement (if and to the extent applicable), (b)   agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any   Intercreditor Agreement and (c) authorizes and instructs the Note Collateral Agent to enter into   (i) the Base Intercreditor Agreement as an “Additional Cash Flow Agent” thereunder and (ii) the   Junior Priority Intercreditor Agreement as a “Senior Priority Agent” thereunder, in each case, on   behalf of such Holder.   Section 124. Designation under Base Intercreditor Agreement. This Indenture is   an “Additional Cash Flow Credit Facility” under and as defined in the Base Intercreditor   Agreement.   Section 125. Integration. This Indenture, any supplemental indenture hereto,   the Notes and the Note Security Documents represent the entire agreement of each of the   Company, the Guarantors party hereto, the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and the Holders   with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings,   representations or warranties by any of the Company, the Guarantors party hereto, the Trustee,   the Note Collateral Agent or any Holder relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set   forth or referred to herein, in any supplemental indenture hereto, in the Notes or the Note   Security Documents.   Section 126. Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE COMPANY, THE   GUARANTORS, THE HOLDERS (BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE NOTES), THE NOTE   COLLATERAL AGENT AND THE TRUSTEE HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND   UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR   PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS INDENTURE, ANY SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE   HERETO, ANY NOTES OR ANY NOTE SECURITY DOCUMENT AND FOR ANY   COUNTERCLAIM THEREIN.   Section 127. Dollar Equivalent. Subject to Section 407(d), when determining   compliance with any basket, threshold, ratio or other amounts under this Indenture, the dollar   equivalent shall be calculated as at the date of the incurrence or making of the relevant   disposition, acquisition, Investment, Indebtedness or Restricted Payment or taking other relevant   action or, upon the Company making an LCT Election, on the LCT Test Date; provided that (x)   no Default or Event of Default or breach of any covenant or representation or warranty shall   arise merely as a result of a change in the dollar equivalent of any relevant amount due to   fluctuations in exchange rates and (y) the dollar equivalent principal or face amount of any   Indebtedness or Investment outstanding on the Issue Date shall be calculated based on the   relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the Issue Date.   Section 128. Calculation Determinations. Notwithstanding anything to the   contrary herein, (i) in calculating any Incurrence Based Amounts (including any Financial   Incurrence Tests), any (x) Indebtedness concurrently incurred to fund original issue discount   and/or upfront fees and (y) amounts incurred, or transactions entered into or consummated, in     
 
  78      reliance on a Fixed Amount (including under Section 407(b)(i)(I)(B) in a concurrent transaction,   a single transaction or a series of related transactions with the amount incurred, or transaction   entered into or consummated, under the applicable Incurrence Based Amount, in each case of the   foregoing clauses (x) and (y), shall not be given effect in calculating the applicable Incurrence   Based Amount (but giving pro forma effect to all applicable and related transactions (including   the use of proceeds of all Indebtedness to be incurred and any repayments, repurchases and   redemptions of Indebtedness) and all other pro forma adjustments); and (ii) if any incurrence-   based financial ratios or tests (including, without limitation, any Consolidated Secured Leverage   Ratio, Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Coverage Ratio tests) (“Financial   Incurrence Tests”) would be satisfied in any subsequent Fiscal Quarter following the utilization   of either (x) fixed baskets, exceptions or thresholds (including baskets measured by reference to   Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA (or a percentage thereof)) that do not require compliance   with a financial ratio or test (“Fixed Amounts”) or (y) baskets, exceptions and thresholds that   require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, any Consolidated   Secured Leverage Ratio, Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio and Consolidated Coverage Ratio   tests) (any such amounts, “Incurrence Based Amounts”), then the reclassification of actions or   transactions (or portions thereof), including the reclassification of utilization of any Fixed   Amounts as incurred under any available Incurrence Based Amounts, shall be deemed to have   automatically occurred even if not elected by the Company (unless the Company otherwise   notifies the Trustee).   ARTICLE II      NOTE FORMS   Section 201. Forms Generally. The Initial Notes and Initial Additional Notes   and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication relating thereto shall be in substantially the forms   set forth, or referenced, in this Article II and Exhibit A attached hereto (as such forms may be   modified in accordance with Section 301). Any Additional Notes that are not Initial Additional   Notes and the Trustee’s certificate of authentication relating thereto shall be in substantially the   forms set forth, or referenced, in this Article II and Exhibit A attached hereto (as such forms may   be modified in accordance with Section 301).

Amount Unlimited; Issuable in Series. The aggregate principal   amount of Notes that may be authenticated and delivered and Outstanding under this Indenture is   not limited. The Notes may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Except as   provided in Section 902, all Notes will vote (or consent) as a single class with the other Notes   and otherwise be treated as Notes for all purposes of this Indenture.   The following matters shall be established with respect to each series of Notes   issued hereunder in a Notes Supplemental Indenture:   (1) the title of the Notes of the series (which title shall distinguish the Notes of   the series from all other series of Notes);   (2) any limit (if any) upon the aggregate principal amount of the Notes of the   series that may be authenticated and delivered under this Indenture (which limit shall not   pertain to Notes authenticated and delivered upon registration of, transfer of, or in   exchange for, or in lieu of, other Notes of the series pursuant to Section 304, 305, 306,   312(d), 312(e) or 1008);   (3) the date or dates on which the principal of and premium, if any, on the   Notes of the series is payable or the method of determination and/or extension of such   date or dates, and the amount or amounts of such principal and premium, if any,   payments and methods of determination thereof;   (4) the rate or rates at which the Notes of the series shall bear interest, if any,   or the method of calculating and/or resetting such rate or rates of interest, the date or   dates from which such interest shall accrue or the method by which such date or dates   shall be determined, and the Interest Payment Dates on which any such interest shall be   payable;   (5) the period or periods within which, the price or prices at which, and other   terms and conditions upon which Notes of the series (i) may be redeemed, in whole or in   part, at the option of the Company, if the Company is to have the option or (ii) shall be     
  85      redeemed, in whole or in part, upon the occurrence of specified events, if the Notes shall   be subject to a mandatory redemption provision;   (6) if other than the principal amount thereof, the portion of the principal   amount of Notes of the series that shall be payable upon declaration of acceleration of   maturity thereof pursuant to Section 602 or the method by which such portion shall be   determined;   (7) in the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change   in the Events of Default which apply to any Notes of the series and any change in the   right of the Trustee or the requisite Holders of such Notes to declare the principal amount   thereof due and payable pursuant to Section 602;   (8) in the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change   in the covenants set forth in Articles IV and V; and   (9) in the case of any Notes, other than Initial Notes, any addition to or change   in the definitions in Section 101 related to additions or changes contemplated by the   foregoing clauses (7) and (8).   The form of the Notes of such series, as set forth in Exhibit A, may be modified to reflect such   matters as so established in such Notes Supplemental Indenture.   Such matters may also be established in a Notes Supplemental Indenture for any   Additional Notes issued hereunder that are to be of the same series as any Notes previously   issued hereunder. Notes that have the same terms described in the foregoing clauses (1) through   (9) will be treated as the same series, unless otherwise designated by the Company.   Section 302. Denominations. The Notes shall be issuable only in fully   registered form, without coupons, and only in minimum denominations of $2,000 (the   “Minimum Denomination”) and integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof.   Section 303. Execution, Authentication and Delivery and Dating. The Notes   shall be executed on behalf of the Company by one Officer of the Company. The signature of   any such Officer on the Notes may be manual, electronic or by facsimile.   Notes bearing the manual, electronic or facsimile signature of an individual who   was at any time an Officer of the Company shall bind the Company, notwithstanding that such   individual has ceased to hold such office prior to the authentication and delivery of such Notes or   did not hold such office at the date of such Notes.   At any time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this   Indenture, the Company may deliver Notes executed by the Company to the Trustee for   authentication; and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver (i) Initial Notes for original issue in   the aggregate principal amount not to exceed $710.0 million and (ii) subject to Section 407,     
 
  86      Additional Notes in one or more series (which may be of the same series as any Notes previously   issued hereunder, or of a different series) from time to time for original issue in aggregate   principal amounts specified by the Company, in each case specified in clauses (i) and (ii) above,   upon a written order of the Company in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of the Company (an   “Authentication Order”). Such Officer’s Certificate shall specify the amount of Notes to be   authenticated and the date on which the Notes are to be authenticated, the “CUSIP”, “ISIN”,   “Common Code” or other similar identification numbers of such Notes, if any, whether the Notes   are to be Initial Notes or Additional Notes and whether the Notes are to be issued as one or more   Global Notes or Physical Notes and such other information as the Company may include or the   Trustee may reasonably request.   All Notes shall be dated the date of their authentication.   No Note shall be entitled to any benefit under this Indenture or be valid or   obligatory for any purpose, unless there appears on such Note a certificate of authentication   substantially in the form provided for herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and   such certificate upon any Note shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such   Note has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.   Section 304. Temporary Notes. Until definitive Notes are ready for delivery,   the Company may prepare and upon receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall   authenticate temporary Notes. Temporary Notes shall be substantially in the form of definitive   Notes but may have variations that the Company considers appropriate for temporary Notes. If   temporary Notes are issued, the Company will cause definitive Notes to be prepared without   unreasonable delay. After the preparation of definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be   exchangeable for definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the office or agency   of the Company in a Place of Payment, without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender for   cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Company shall execute and upon receipt of   an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like   principal amount of definitive Notes of authorized denominations. Until so exchanged the   temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as   definitive Notes of the same series and tenor.   Section 305. Note Registrar and Paying Agent. The Company shall cause to be   kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee a register (the register maintained in such office   and in any other office or agency of the Company in a Place of Payment being herein sometimes   collectively referred to as the “Note Register”) in which, subject to such reasonable regulations   as it may prescribe, the Company shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers of   Notes. The Company may have one or more co-registrars. The term “Note Registrar” includes   any co-registrars.   The Company initially appoints the Trustee as “Note Registrar” and “Paying   Agent” in connection with the Notes, until such time as it has resigned or a successor has been   appointed. The Company may have one or more additional paying agents, and the term “Paying   Agent” shall include any additional Paying Agent. The Company may change the Paying Agent     
  87      or Note Registrar without prior notice to the Holders of Notes. The Company may enter into an   appropriate agency agreement with any Note Registrar or Paying Agent not a party to this   Indenture. Any such agency agreement shall implement the provisions of this Indenture that   relate to such agent. The Company shall notify the Trustee in writing of the name and address of   any such agent. If the Company fails to appoint or maintain a Note Registrar or Paying Agent,   the Trustee shall act as such and shall be entitled to appropriate compensation therefor pursuant   to Section 707. The Company, Holdings or any Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary of the   Company may act as Paying Agent (except for purposes of Section 1103 or Section 1205) or   Note Registrar.   Upon surrender for transfer of any Note at the office or agency of the Company in   a Place of Payment, in compliance with all applicable requirements of this Indenture and   applicable law, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, in the   name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes of the same series, of   any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate principal amount.   At the option of the Holder, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of the same   series, of any authorized denominations and of a like tenor and aggregate principal amount, upon   surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at such office or agency. Whenever any Notes are so   surrendered for exchange, the Company shall execute, and the Trustee shall authenticate and   deliver, the Notes that the Holder making the exchange is entitled to receive.   All Notes issued upon any transfer or exchange of Notes shall be the valid   obligations of the Company, evidencing the same debt, and entitled to the same benefits under   this Indenture, as the Notes surrendered upon such transfer or exchange.   Every Note presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be duly   endorsed, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the   Company duly executed, by the Holder thereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in   writing.   No service charge shall be made for any registration, transfer or exchange of   Notes, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any transfer tax or   other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.   The Company shall not be required (i) to issue, transfer or exchange any Note   during a period beginning at the opening of business 15 Business Days before the day of the   sending of a notice of redemption (or purchase) of Notes selected for redemption (or purchase)   under Section 1004 and ending at the close of business on the day of such sending, or (ii) to   transfer or exchange any Note so selected for redemption (or purchase) in whole or in part.   Section 306. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost and Stolen Notes. If a mutilated Note   is surrendered to the Note Registrar or if the Holder of a Note claims that the Note has been lost,   destroyed or wrongfully taken, the Company shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a   replacement Note if the requirements of Section 8-405 of the Uniform Commercial Code are     
 
  88      met, such that the Holder (a) notifies the Company or the Trustee within a reasonable time after   such Holder has notice of such loss, destruction or wrongful taking and the Note Registrar does   not register a transfer prior to receiving such notification, (b) makes such request to the Company   or the Trustee prior to the Note being acquired by a protected purchaser as defined in Section   8-303 of the Uniform Commercial Code and (c) satisfies any other reasonable requirements of   the Company. If required by the Trustee or the Company, such Holder shall furnish an   indemnity bond sufficient in the judgment of (i) the Trustee to protect the Trustee and (ii) the   Company to protect the Company, the Trustee, a Paying Agent and the Note Registrar, from any   loss that any of them may suffer if a Note is replaced.   In case any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note has become or is about   to become due and payable, the Company in its discretion may, instead of issuing a new Note,   pay such Note.   Upon the issuance of any new Note under this Section 306, the Company may   require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may   be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the   Trustee) connected therewith.   Every new Note issued pursuant to this Section 306 in lieu of any destroyed, lost   or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Company,   whether or not the destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and   shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and ratably with any and all other   Notes duly issued hereunder.   The provisions of this Section 306 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent   lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated,   destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.   Section 307. Payment of Interest Rights Preserved. Interest on any Note that is   payable, and is punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid   to the Person in whose name that Note (or one or more Predecessor Notes) is registered at the   close of business on the Regular Record Date for such interest specified in Section 4 of the   applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture.   Unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes   Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 301, any interest on any Note that is   payable, but is not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date (herein   called “Defaulted Interest”) shall forthwith cease to be payable to the registered Holder on the   relevant Regular Record Date by virtue of having been such Holder; and such Defaulted Interest   may be paid by the Company, at its election, as provided in clause (1) or clause (2) below:   (1) The Company may elect to make payment of any Defaulted Interest to the   Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered   at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted     
  89      Interest, which shall be fixed in the following manner. The Company shall notify the   Trustee and Paying Agent in writing of the amount of Defaulted Interest proposed to be   paid on each Note and the date of the proposed payment, and the Company shall deposit   with the Trustee or Paying Agent an amount of money equal to the aggregate amount   proposed to be paid in respect of such Defaulted Interest or shall make arrangements   reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee or Paying Agent for such deposit prior to the date   of the proposed payment, such money when deposited to be held in trust for the benefit of   the Persons entitled to such Defaulted Interest as provided in this clause (1). Thereupon   the Trustee shall fix a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest   which shall be not more than 15 nor less than 10 days prior to the date of the proposed   payment and not less than 10 days after the receipt by the Trustee and the Paying Agent   of the notice of the proposed payment. The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company   of such Special Record Date and, in the name and at the expense of the Company, shall   cause notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special Record   Date therefor to be mailed, first class postage prepaid, to each Holder at such Holder’s   address as it appears in the Note Register, not less than 10 days prior to such Special   Record Date. Notice of the proposed payment of such Defaulted Interest and the Special   Record Date therefor having been so mailed, such Defaulted Interest shall be paid to the   Persons in whose names the Notes (or their respective Predecessor Notes) are registered   on such Special Record Date and shall no longer be payable pursuant to the following   clause (2).   (2) The Company may make payment of any Defaulted Interest in any other   lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on   which the Notes may be listed, and upon such notice as may be required by such   exchange.   Subject to the foregoing provisions of this Section 307, each Note delivered under   this Indenture upon transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note shall carry the   rights to interest accrued and unpaid, and to accrue, that were carried by such other Note.   Section 308. Persons Deemed Owners. The Company, any Guarantor, the   Trustee, the Paying Agent and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any   Note is registered as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payment of principal of   (and premium, if any), and (subject to Section 307) interest on, such Note and for all other   purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and neither the Company, any   Guarantor, the Trustee, the Paying Agent nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by   notice to the contrary.   Section 309. Cancellation. All Notes surrendered for payment, redemption,   transfer, exchange or conversion shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Trustee, be   delivered to the Trustee and, if not already cancelled, shall be promptly cancelled by it. The   Company may at any time deliver to the Trustee for cancellation any Notes previously   authenticated and delivered hereunder that the Company may have acquired in any manner     
 
  90      whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Trustee. No Notes   shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this   Section 309, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes held by the   Trustee shall be disposed of by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures (subject   to the record retention requirements of the Exchange Act).   Section 310. Computation of Interest. Unless otherwise specified for Notes of   any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 301,   interest on the Notes shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months.   Section 311. CUSIP Numbers, ISINs, Etc. The Company in issuing the Notes   may use “CUSIP” numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers (if then generally in use), and   if so, the Trustee may use the CUSIP numbers, ISINs and “Common Code” numbers in notices   of redemption or exchange as a convenience to Holders; provided, however, that any such notice   may state that no representation is made as to the correctness or accuracy of such numbers   printed in the notice or on the Notes; that reliance may be placed only on the other identification   numbers printed on the Notes; and that any redemption shall not be affected by any defect in or   omission of such numbers.   Section 312. Book-Entry Provisions for Global Notes. (a) Each Global Note   initially shall (i) be registered in the name of the Depositary for such Global Note or the nominee   of such Depositary, in each case for credit to the account of an Agent Member, and (ii) be   delivered to the Trustee as custodian for such Depositary. None of the Company, any agent of   the Company or the Trustee shall have any responsibility or liability for any aspect of the records   relating to or payments made on account of beneficial ownership interests of a Global Note, or   for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to such beneficial ownership   interests.   (b) Members of, or participants in, the Depositary (“Agent Members”) shall   have no rights under this Indenture with respect to any Global Note held on their behalf by the   Depositary, or its custodian, or under such Global Notes. The Depositary may be treated by   the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and any agent of any of them as   the absolute owner of the Global Notes for all purposes whatsoever. Notwithstanding the   foregoing, nothing herein shall prevent the Company, any other obligor upon the Notes, the   Trustee or any agent of any of them from giving effect to any written certification, proxy or   other authorization furnished by the Depositary or impair, as between the Depositary and its   Agent Members, the operation of customary practices governing the exercise of the rights of a   beneficial owner of any Note. The Holder of a Global Note may grant proxies and otherwise   authorize any Person, including Agent Members and Persons that may hold interests through   Agent Members, to take any action that a Holder is entitled to take under this Indenture   (including the Note Security Documents) or the Notes.   (c) Transfers of a Global Note shall be limited to transfers of such Global   Note in whole, but, subject to the immediately succeeding sentence, not in part, to the   Depositary, its successors or their respective nominees. Interests of beneficial owners in a     
  91      Global Note may not be transferred or exchanged for Physical Notes unless (i) the Company   has consented thereto in writing, or such transfer or exchange is made pursuant to the next   sentence, and (ii) such transfer or exchange is in accordance with the applicable rules and   procedures of the Depositary and the provisions of Section 305 and Section 313. Subject to the   limitation on issuance of Physical Notes set forth in Section 313(3), Physical Notes shall be   transferred to all beneficial owners in exchange for their beneficial interests in the relevant   Global Note, if (i) the Depositary notifies the Company at any time that it is unwilling or   unable to continue as Depositary for the Global Notes and a successor depositary is not   appointed within 120 days; (ii) the Depositary ceases to be registered as a “Clearing Agency”   under the Exchange Act and a successor depositary is not appointed within 120 days; (iii) the   Company, at its option, notifies the Trustee that it elects to cause the issuance of Physical   Notes; or (iv) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the   Notes and the Trustee has received a written request from the Depositary to issue Physical   Notes.   (d) In connection with any transfer or exchange of a portion of the beneficial   interest in any Global Note to beneficial owners for Physical Notes pursuant to Section 312(c),   the applicable Note Registrar shall record on its books and records the date and a decrease in   the principal amount of such Global Note in an amount equal to the beneficial interest in the   Global Note being transferred, and the Company shall execute, and upon receipt of an   Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, one or more Physical Notes of   like tenor and principal amount of authorized denominations.   (e) In connection with a transfer of an entire Global Note to beneficial owners   for Physical Notes pursuant to Section 312(c), the applicable Global Note shall be deemed to   be surrendered to the Trustee for cancellation, and the Company shall execute, and upon   receipt of an Authentication Order the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver, to each beneficial   owner identified by the Depositary, in exchange for its beneficial interest in the applicable   Global Note, an equal aggregate principal amount of Rule 144A Physical Notes (in the case of   any Rule 144A Global Note) or Regulation S Physical Notes (in the case of any Regulation S   Global Note), as the case may be, of authorized denominations.   (f) The transfer and exchange of a Global Note or beneficial interests therein   shall be effected through the Depositary, in accordance with this Indenture (including   applicable restrictions on transfer set forth in Section 313) and the procedures therefor of the   Depositary. Any beneficial interest in one of the Global Notes that is transferred to a Person   who takes delivery in the form of an interest in a different Global Note will, upon transfer,   cease to be an interest in such Global Note and become an interest in the other Global Note   and, accordingly, will thereafter be subject to all transfer restrictions, if any, and other   procedures applicable to beneficial interests in such other Global Note for as long as it remains   such an interest. A transferor of a beneficial interest in a Global Note shall deliver to the Note   Registrar a written order given in accordance with the Depositary’s procedures containing   information regarding the participant account of the Depositary to be credited with a beneficial   interest in the relevant Global Note. Subject to Section 313, the Note Registrar shall, in     
 
  92      accordance with such instructions, instruct the Depositary to credit to the account of the Person   specified in such instructions a beneficial interest in such Global Note and to debit the account   of the Person making the transfer the beneficial interest in the Global Note being transferred.   (g) Any Physical Note delivered in exchange for an interest in a Global Note   pursuant to Section 312(c) shall, unless such exchange is made on or after the Resale   Restriction Termination Date applicable to such Note and except as otherwise provided in   Section 203 and Section 313, bear the Private Placement Legend.   (h) Notwithstanding the foregoing, through the Restricted Period, a beneficial   interest in a Regulation S Global Note may be held only through designated Agent Members   holding on behalf of Euroclear or Clearstream unless delivery is made in accordance with the   applicable provisions of Section 313.   Section 313. Special Transfer Provisions.   (1) Transfers to Non-U.S. Persons. The following provisions shall apply with   respect to the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security   to any Non-U.S. Person: The Note Registrar shall register such transfer if it complies   with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including Section 305) and,   (a) if (x) such transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination   Date with respect to such Note or (y) the proposed transferor has delivered to the Note   Registrar and the Company and the Trustee a Regulation S Certificate and, unless   otherwise agreed by the Company, an opinion of counsel, certifications and other   information satisfactory to the Company, and   (b) if the proposed transferor is or is acting through an Agent Member holding   a beneficial interest in a Global Note, upon receipt by the Note Registrar and the   Company and the Trustee of (x) the certificate, opinion, certifications and other   information, if any, required by clause (a) above and (y) written instructions given in   accordance with the procedures of the Note Registrar and of the Depositary;   whereupon (i) the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and (if the   transfer does not involve a transfer of any Outstanding Physical Note) a decrease in the principal   amount of the relevant Global Note in an amount equal to the principal amount of the beneficial   interest in the relevant Global Note to be transferred, and (ii) either (A) if the proposed transferee   is or is acting through an Agent Member holding a beneficial interest in a relevant Regulation S   Global Note, the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and records the date and an increase in   the principal amount of such Regulation S Global Note in an amount equal to the principal   amount of the beneficial interest being so transferred or (B) otherwise the Company shall execute   and (upon receipt of an Authentication Order) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver one or   more Physical Notes of like tenor and amount.     
  93      (2) Transfers to QIBs. The following provisions shall apply with respect to   the registration of any proposed transfer of a Note that is a Restricted Security to a QIB   (excluding transfers to Non-U.S. Persons): The Note Registrar shall register such transfer   if it complies with all other applicable requirements of this Indenture (including   Section 305) and,   (a) if such transfer is being made by a proposed transferor who has checked   the box provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has otherwise certified to the   Note Registrar and the Company and the Trustee in writing, that the sale has been made   in compliance with the provisions of Rule 144A to a transferee who has signed the   certification provided for on the form of such Note stating, or has otherwise certified to   the Note Registrar and the Company and the Trustee in writing, that it is purchasing such   Note for its own account or an account with respect to which it exercises sole investment   discretion and that it and any such account is a QIB within the meaning of Rule 144A,   and is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A and acknowledges   that it has received such information regarding the Company as it has requested pursuant   to Rule 144A or has determined not to request such information and that it is aware that   the transferor is relying upon its foregoing representations in order to claim the   exemption from registration provided by Rule 144A; and   (b) if the proposed transferee is an Agent Member, and the Note to be   transferred consists of a Physical Note that after transfer is to be evidenced by an interest   in a Global Note or consists of a beneficial interest in a Global Note that after the transfer   is to be evidenced by an interest in a different Global Note, upon receipt by the Note   Registrar of written instructions given in accordance with the Depositary’s and the Note   Registrar’s procedures, whereupon the Note Registrar shall reflect on its books and   records the date and an increase in the principal amount of the transferee Global Note in   an amount equal to the principal amount of the Physical Note or such beneficial interest   in such transferor Global Note to be transferred, and the Trustee shall cancel the Physical   Note so transferred or reflect on its books and records the date and a decrease in the   principal amount of such transferor Global Note, as the case may be.   (3) Limitation on Issuance of Physical Notes. No Physical Note shall be   exchanged for a beneficial interest in any Global Note, except in accordance with   Section 312 and this Section 313.   A beneficial owner of an interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note (and,   in the case of any Additional Notes for which no Temporary Regulation S Global Note is issued,   any Regulation S Global Note) shall not be permitted to exchange such interest for a Physical   Note or (in the case of such interest in a Temporary Regulation S Global Note) an interest in a   Permanent Regulation S Global Note until a date, which must be after the end of the Restricted   Period, on which the Company receives a certificate of beneficial ownership substantially in the   form attached hereto as Exhibit C from such beneficial owner (a “Certificate of Beneficial     
 
  94      Ownership”). Such date, as it relates to a Regulation S Global Note, is herein referred to as the   “Regulation S Note Exchange Date.”   (4) Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or replacement of   Notes not bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall deliver Notes   that do not bear the Private Placement Legend. Upon the transfer, exchange or   replacement of Notes bearing the Private Placement Legend, the Note Registrar shall   deliver only Notes that bear the Private Placement Legend unless (i) the requested   transfer is after the relevant Resale Restriction Termination Date with respect to such   Notes, (ii) upon written request of the Company after there is delivered to the Note   Registrar an opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to the   Company) to the effect that neither such legend nor the related restrictions on transfer are   required in order to maintain compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act,   (iii) with respect to a Regulation S Global Note (on or after the Regulation S Note   Exchange Date with respect to such Regulation S Global Note) or Regulation S Physical   Note, in each case with the agreement of the Company, or (iv) such Notes are sold or   exchanged pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act.   (5) Other Transfers. The Note Registrar shall effect and register, upon receipt   of a written request from the Company to do so, a transfer not otherwise permitted by this   Section 313, such registration to be done in accordance with the otherwise applicable   provisions of this Section 313, upon the furnishing by the proposed transferor or   transferee of a written opinion of counsel (which opinion and counsel are satisfactory to   the Company) to the effect that, and such other certifications or information as the   Company may require (including, in the case of a transfer to an Accredited Investor (as   defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under Regulation D promulgated under the   Securities Act), a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F) to   confirm that, the proposed transfer is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a   transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act.   A Note that is a Restricted Security may not be transferred other than as provided   in this Section 313. A beneficial interest in a Global Note that is a Restricted Security may not   be exchanged for a beneficial interest in another Global Note other than through a transfer in   compliance with this Section 313.   (6) General. By its acceptance of any Note bearing the Private Placement   Legend, each Holder of such a Note acknowledges the restrictions on transfer of such   Note set forth in this Indenture and in the Private Placement Legend and agrees that it   will transfer such Note only as provided in this Indenture.   The Note Registrar shall retain copies of all letters, notices and other written   communications received pursuant to Section 312 or this Section 313 (including all Notes   received for transfer pursuant to this Section 313). The Company shall have the right to require   the applicable Note Registrar to deliver to the Company, at the Company’s expense, copies of all     
  95      such letters, notices or other written communications at any reasonable time upon the giving of   reasonable written notice to the Note Registrar.   In connection with any transfer of any Note, the Trustee, the Note Registrar and   the Company shall be entitled to receive, shall be under no duty to inquire into, may conclusively   presume the correctness of, and shall be fully protected in relying upon the certificates, opinions   and other information referred to herein (or in the forms provided herein, attached hereto or to   the Notes, or otherwise) received from any Holder and any transferee of any Note regarding the   validity, legality and due authorization of any such transfer, the eligibility of the transferee to   receive such Note and any other facts and circumstances related to such transfer. Furthermore,   the Trustee and Note Registrar shall have no liability or responsibility to monitor any such   transfer for compliance with the provisions hereunder and/or governing securities laws or   otherwise.   Section 314. AHYDO Saver Payments. If the Notes would otherwise constitute   an “applicable high yield discount obligation” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the   Code, at the end of each tax accrual period ending after the fifth anniversary of the Issue Date,   the Company shall prepay in cash a portion of the Notes then outstanding equal to the “Initial   Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount” (as defined below) with respect to such tax accrual   period (each such prepayment, an “Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment”). The prepayment   price for the Notes prepaid pursuant to an Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment shall be 100%   of the principal amount of such portion plus any accrued interest thereon on the date of such   prepayment. The “Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount” with respect to a tax   accrual period means the portion of the Notes required to be prepaid with respect to such tax   accrual period so that no portion of the Notes is treated as an “applicable high yield discount   obligation” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code; provided, that if there is   uncertainty (as determined by the Company in good faith, which determination shall be   conclusive) regarding the determination of the portion so required to be prepaid, such portion   shall be set at an amount not less than the amount the Company determines in good faith to be so   required, and each such determination by the Company shall be conclusive and binding, and such   portion shall constitute the Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount with respect to such   tax accrual period, for all purposes under this Indenture (regardless of any subsequent   determination that such portion may have exceeded the amount so required to be prepaid). For   the avoidance of doubt, the Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount with respect to a tax   accrual period shall represent the same percentage of the principal amount of each outstanding   Note with respect to such tax accrual period.   ARTICLE IV      COVENANTS   Section 401. Payment of Principal, Premium and Interest. The Company shall   duly and punctually pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on the Notes in   accordance with the terms of the Notes and this Indenture. Principal amount (and premium, if     
 
  96      any) and interest on the Notes shall be considered paid on the date due if the Company shall have   deposited with the Paying Agent (if other than the Company, Holdings or a Wholly Owned   Domestic Subsidiary of the Company) as of 12:00 p.m. New York City time on the due date   money in immediately available funds and designated for and sufficient to pay all principal   amount (and premium, if any) and interest then due. At the option of the Company, payment of   interest on a Note may be made through the Paying Agent by wire transfer of immediately   available funds to the account designated to the Company by the Person entitled thereto or by   check sent to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Note   Register.   Section 402. Maintenance of Office or Agency. (a) The Company shall   maintain in the United States an office or agency where the Notes may be presented or   surrendered for payment, where the Notes may be surrendered for transfer or exchange and   where notices and demands to or upon the Company in respect of the Notes and this Indenture   may be served. The Company shall give prompt written notice to the Trustee of the location, and   of any change in the location, of such office or agency. If at any time the Company shall fail to   maintain such office or agency or shall fail to furnish the Trustee with the address thereof, such   presentations, surrenders, notices and demands may be made or served at the Corporate Trust   Office of the Trustee; provided that no service of legal process may be made against the   Company at any office of the Trustee.   (b) The Company may also from time to time designate one or more other   offices or agencies where the Notes may be presented or surrendered for any or all purposes   and may from time to time rescind such designations.   The Company hereby designates the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee, as one   such office or agency of the Company in accordance with Section 305.   Section 403. Money for Payments to Be Held in Trust. If the Company shall at   any time act as Paying Agent, it shall, on or before 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on each due   date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on, any of the Notes, segregate and hold   in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled thereto a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and   premium, if any) or interest so becoming due until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or   otherwise disposed of as herein provided, and shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its   action or failure so to act.   If the Company is not acting as Paying Agent, it shall, on or prior to 12:00 p.m.,   New York City time, on each due date of the principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on,   the Notes, deposit with a Paying Agent a sum sufficient to pay the principal (and premium, if   any) or interest, so becoming due, such sum to be held in trust for the benefit of the Persons   entitled to such principal, premium or interest, and (unless such Paying Agent is the Trustee) the   Company shall promptly notify the Trustee in writing of its action or failure so to act.   If the Company is not acting as Paying Agent, the Company shall cause any   Paying Agent other than the Trustee to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which     
  97      such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee, subject to the provisions of this Section 403, that   such Paying Agent shall   (1) hold all sums held by it for the payment of principal of (and premium, if   any) or interest on Notes of such series in trust for the benefit of the Persons entitled   thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Persons or otherwise disposed of as herein   provided;   (2) give the Trustee notice of any default by the Company (or any other   obligor upon the Notes) in the making of any such payment of principal (and premium, if   any) or interest;   (3) at any time during the continuance of any such default, upon the written   request of the Trustee, forthwith pay to the Trustee all sums so held in trust by such   Paying Agent; and   (4) acknowledge, accept and agree to comply in all respects with the   provisions of this Indenture relating to the duties, rights and liabilities of such Paying   Agent.   The Company may at any time, for the purpose of obtaining the satisfaction and   discharge of such Notes, this Indenture or for any other purpose, pay, or by Company Order   direct any Paying Agent to pay, to the Trustee all sums held in trust by the Company or such   Paying Agent, such sums to be held by the Trustee upon the same trusts as those upon which   such sums were held by the Company or such Paying Agent; and, upon such payment by any   Paying Agent to the Trustee, such Paying Agent shall be released from all further liability with   respect to such money.   Any money deposited with the Trustee or any Paying Agent, or then held by the   Company, in trust for the payment of principal of (and premium, if any) or interest on any Note   and remaining unclaimed for two years after such principal (and premium, if any) or interest has   become due and payable shall be paid to the Company upon Company Request, or (if then held   by the Company) shall be discharged from such trust; and the Holder of such Note shall   thereafter, as an unsecured general creditor, look only to the Company for payment thereof   unless an applicable abandoned property law designates another Person, and all liability of the   Trustee or such Paying Agent with respect to such trust money, and all liability of the Company   as trustee thereof, shall thereupon cease.   Section 404.

  101      information contained therein or determinable from information contained therein, including the   Company’s compliance with any of its covenants hereunder (as to which the Trustee is entitled   to rely exclusively on an Officer’s Certificate).

The Trustee shall have no liability or responsibility for the filing,   timeliness or content of such reports.   Section 406. Statement as to Default. The Company shall deliver to the Trustee,   within five Business Days following 120 days after the end of each fiscal year of the Company   commencing with the Company’s fiscal year ending December 31, 2022, an Officer’s Certificate   to the effect that to the best knowledge of the signer thereof (on behalf of the Company) the   Company is or is not in default in the performance and observance of any of the terms,   provisions and conditions of this Indenture applicable to the Company (without regard to any   period of grace or requirement of notice provided hereunder) and, if the Company shall be in   default, specifying all such defaults and the nature and status thereof of which such signer may   have knowledge.   Section 407.

  108      percentage thereof) shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount   of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal   amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate   amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses (including   accrued and unpaid interest) Incurred or payable in connection with such refinancing and   (z) the dollar equivalent principal amount of Indebtedness denominated in a foreign currency   and Incurred pursuant to a Credit Facility shall be calculated based on the relevant currency   exchange rate in effect on, at the Company’s option, (A) the Issue Date, (B) any date on which   any of the respective commitments under such Credit Facility shall be reallocated between or   among facilities or subfacilities thereunder, or on which such rate is otherwise calculated for   any purpose thereunder, (C) the date of such Incurrence or (D) the date on which such   Indebtedness is allocated or priced, as applicable. The principal amount of any Indebtedness   Incurred to refinance other Indebtedness, if Incurred in a different currency from the   Indebtedness being refinanced, shall be calculated based on the currency exchange rate   applicable to the currencies in which such respective Indebtedness is denominated that is in   effect on the date of such refinancing.   Section 408.

  119      the relevant Asset Disposition, and consummation of the relevant Asset Disposition) and deem   the amount so invested to be applied pursuant to and in accordance with clause (A)(y) above   with respect to such Asset Disposition; and (3) the percentage first set forth above in clause   (a)(iii) shall be reduced to (x) 50.0% if the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio at the time of   such Asset Disposition (or, at the Company’s option, on the date a legally binding commitment   for such Asset Disposition is entered into) would be less than or equal to 4.00:1.00 and (y) 0.0%   if the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio at the time of such Asset Disposition (or, at the   Parent Company’s option, on the date a legally binding commitment for such Asset Disposition   is entered into) would be less than or equal to 3.50:1.00, in each case after giving pro forma   effect thereto and to any application of Net Available Cash as set forth herein (any Net Available   Cash in respect of such Asset Dispositions not required to be applied in accordance with this   Section 411 as a result of the application of this clause (3) of the proviso to clause (b) shall   collectively constitute “Total Secured Leverage Excess Collateral Proceeds”).   (c) To the extent that such Net Available Cash Amount is from an Asset   Disposition of any assets not constituting Collateral (“Other Assets”), such Net Available Cash is   applied by the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may be) as follows:   (A) first, either (x) to the extent that the Company or such Restricted   Subsidiary elects (or is required by the terms of any Credit Facility Indebtedness, any Senior   Indebtedness of the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor or any Indebtedness of a Restricted   Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor), to prepay, repay or purchase any such   Indebtedness or Obligations in respect thereof or (in the case of letters of credit, bankers’   acceptances or other similar instruments) cash collateralize any such Indebtedness or Obligations   in respect thereof (in each case other than Indebtedness owed to the Company or a Restricted   Subsidiary) within 540 days after the later of the date of such Asset Disposition and the date of   receipt of such Net Available Cash, or (y) to the extent that the Company or such Restricted   Subsidiary elects, to invest in Additional Assets (including by means of an investment in   Additional Assets by a Restricted Subsidiary with an amount equal to Net Available Cash   received by the Company or another Restricted Subsidiary) within 540 days after the later of the   date of such Asset Disposition and the date of receipt of such Net Available Cash, or, if such   investment in Additional Assets is a project authorized by the Board of Directors that will take   longer than such 540 days to complete, the period of time necessary to complete such project;   (B) second, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash Amount   after application in accordance with clause (A) above (such balance, the “Excess Other   Proceeds” and, together with the Excess Collateral Proceeds, the “Excess Proceeds”), to make an   offer to purchase the Notes and (to the extent the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary elects,   or is required by the terms thereof) to make an offer to purchase, redeem or repay and/or to   purchase, redeem or repay any other Senior Indebtedness under any other Additional Obligations   of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary secured by Liens that rank pari passu with the Liens   on Collateral securing the Notes, or any other Indebtedness secured by Liens that rank pari passu   with the Liens on Collateral securing the Notes, pursuant and subject to the conditions of this   Indenture and the agreements or instruments governing such other Senior Indebtedness; and     
 
  120      (C) third, to the extent of the balance of such Net Available Cash Amount   after application in accordance with clauses (A) and (B) above (including, an amount equal to the   amount of any purchase, redemption or repayment contemplated by clause (B) above that is   declined or not accepted by any applicable holder) (the amount of such balance, “Declined Other   Excess Proceeds” and, together with Declined Collateral Excess Proceeds, “Declined Excess   Proceeds”), to fund (to the extent consistent with any other applicable provision of this   Indenture) any general corporate purpose (including but not limited to the repurchase, repayment   or other acquisition or retirement of any unsecured Senior Indebtedness or Subordinated   Obligations or the making of other Restricted Payments);   provided, however, that (1) in connection with any prepayment, repayment,   purchase or redemption of Indebtedness pursuant to clause (A)(x) or (B) above, the Company or   such Restricted Subsidiary will retire such Indebtedness and will cause the related loan   commitment (if any) to be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the principal amount so   prepaid, repaid, purchased or redeemed; (2) the Company (or any Restricted Subsidiary, as the   case may be) may elect to invest in Additional Assets prior to receiving the Net Available Cash   attributable to any given Asset Disposition (provided that such investment shall be made no   earlier than the earliest of notice to the Trustee of the relevant Asset Disposition, execution of a   definitive agreement for the relevant Asset Disposition, and consummation of the relevant Asset   Disposition) and deem the amount so invested to be applied pursuant to and in accordance with   clause (A)(y) above with respect to such Asset Disposition; and (3) the percentage first set forth   above in clause (a)(iii) shall be reduced to (x) 50.0% if the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio   at the time of such Asset Disposition (or, at the Company’s option, on the date a legally binding   commitment for such Asset Disposition is entered into) would be less than or equal to 4.00:1.00   and (y) 0.0% if the Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio at the time of such Asset Disposition   (or, at the Company’s option, on the date a legally binding commitment for such Asset   Disposition is entered into) would be less than or equal to 3.50:1.00, in each case after giving pro   forma effect thereto and to any application of Net Available Cash as set forth herein (any Net   Available Cash in respect of such Asset Dispositions not required to be applied in accordance   with this Section 411 as a result of the application of this clause (3) of the proviso to clause (c)   shall collectively constitute “Total Secured Leverage Excess Other Proceeds” and, together with   the Total Secured Leverage Excess Collateral Proceeds, “Total Secured Leverage Excess   Proceeds”).   Notwithstanding the foregoing provision in Section 411(a)(iii), to the extent that   repatriating any or all of the Net Available Cash from any Asset Disposition by a Foreign   Subsidiary (x) would result in material adverse tax consequences to Topco or one of its   Subsidiaries or (y) (1) could reasonably be expected to be prohibited or delayed by or violate or   conflict with applicable local law, (2) is restricted by applicable organizational documents or any   agreement, (3) subject to other organizational or administrative impediments from being   repatriated to the United States or (4) conflicts with the fiduciary duties of the applicable   directors, or results in, or could reasonably be expected to result in, a material risk of personal or   criminal liability for any applicable officer, director or manager (in the case of the foregoing   clauses (x) and (y), as determined in good faith by the Company, which determination shall be     
  121      conclusive), the portion of such Net Available Cash so affected will not be required to be applied   in compliance with Section 411(a)(iii), and such amounts may be retained by the applicable   Foreign Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of clause (y), the Company shall take   commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions   reasonably required by the applicable local law, the applicable organizational documents or   agreements, the applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such   repatriation, and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Available Cash can be achieved   without any such prohibition, delay, violation, conflict, restriction, impediment or risk, such   repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Available Cash will be applied   (whether or not repatriation actually occurs) in compliance with Section 411(a)(iii). The time   periods set forth in this Section 411 shall not start until such time as the Net Available Cash may   be repatriated whether or not such repatriation actually occurs.   Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 411, the Company and   the Restricted Subsidiaries shall not be required to apply any Net Available Cash or equivalent   amount in accordance with this Section 411 except to the extent that the aggregate Net Available   Cash from all Asset Dispositions or equivalent amount that is not applied in accordance with this   Section 411 (excluding all Total Secured Leverage Excess Proceeds) exceeds the greater of   $133.0 million and 15.0% of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA in which case the Company   and the Restricted Subsidiaries shall apply all such Net Available Cash or equivalent amount   from such Asset Dispositions in excess of this threshold in accordance with this Section 411. If   the aggregate principal amount of Notes and/or other Indebtedness of the Company or a   Restricted Subsidiary validly tendered and not withdrawn (or otherwise subject to purchase,   redemption or repayment) in connection with an offer pursuant to Section 411(b)(B) and Section   411(c)(B) exceeds the Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds will be apportioned between such   Notes and such other Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, with the portion   of the Excess Proceeds payable in respect of such Notes to equal the lesser of (x) the Excess   Proceeds amount multiplied by a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal   amount of such Notes and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal   amount of the Notes and the outstanding principal amount of the relevant other Indebtedness of   the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary, and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Notes validly   tendered and not withdrawn.   (d) For the purposes of Section 411(a)(ii), the following are deemed to be   cash: (1) Temporary Cash Investments and Cash Equivalents; (2) the assumption of Indebtedness   of the Company (other than Disqualified Stock of the Company) or any Restricted Subsidiary   and the release of the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on payment of the   principal amount of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition; (3)   Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of   such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Company and each other Restricted Subsidiary are   released from any Guarantee of payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness in   connection with such Asset Disposition; (4) securities received by the Company or any   Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Company or such Restricted   Subsidiary into cash within 180 days; (5) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the     
 
  122      Company or any Restricted Subsidiary; (6) Additional Assets; and (7) any Designated Noncash   Consideration received by the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an Asset   Disposition having an aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Company in good faith,   which determination shall be conclusive), taken together with all other Designated Noncash   Consideration received pursuant to this clause (7), not to exceed an aggregate amount at any time   outstanding equal to the greater of $265.0 million and 30.0% of Four Quarter Consolidated   EBITDA (with the fair market value (as determined by the Company in good faith, which   determination shall be conclusive) of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being   measured on the date a legally binding commitment for such Asset Disposition (or, if later, for   the payment of such item) was entered into and without giving effect to subsequent changes in   value).   (e) In the event of an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of Notes   pursuant to Section 411(b)(B) and Section 411(c)(B), the Company will be required to purchase   Notes tendered pursuant to an offer by the Company for the Notes (the “Offer”) at a purchase   price of 100.0% of their principal amount plus accrued and unpaid interest to but not including   the date of purchase in accordance with the procedures (including prorating in the event of   oversubscription) set forth in Section 411(c). If the aggregate purchase price of the Notes   tendered pursuant to the Offer is less than the Net Available Cash allotted to the purchase of   Notes, the remaining Net Available Cash will be available to the Company and the Restricted   Subsidiaries for use in accordance with Section 411(b)(B) and Section 411(c)(B) (to repay other   Indebtedness of the Company or a Restricted Subsidiary) or Section 411(b)(C) and Section   411(c)(C). The Company shall not be required to make an Offer for Notes pursuant to this   Section 411 if the Net Available Cash available therefor (after application of the proceeds as   provided in Section 411(b)(A) and Section 411(c)(A), as applicable) is less than the greater of   $133.0 million and 15.0% of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA for any particular Asset   Disposition (which lesser amounts shall be carried forward for purposes of determining whether   an Offer is required with respect to the Net Available Cash from any subsequent Asset   Disposition). No Note will be repurchased in part if less than the Minimum Denomination in   original principal amount of such Note would be left outstanding. The provisions under this   Indenture relating to the Company’s obligation to make an Offer for Notes pursuant to this   Section 411 may be waived or modified with the written consent of the Holders of a majority in   principal amount of the Notes.   (f) For the purposes of Section 411(b) and Section 411(c), (i) in the event of   any Asset Disposition of Capital Stock of a Person that has any right, title or interest to or in   assets constituting both Collateral and Other Assets, such Asset Disposition shall instead be   deemed to be an Asset Disposition of such assets, and the Company shall allocate the Net   Available Cash from such Asset Disposition between the Collateral and the Other Assets in   proportion to their respective fair market values as determined by the Company in good faith   (which determination shall be conclusive), (ii) any Asset Disposition of Capital Stock of any   Person that has any right, title or interest to or in assets constituting only Other Assets will be   subject to Section 411(c) and not Section 411(b), and (iii) any Asset Disposition of Capital Stock     
  123      of any Person that has any right, title or interest to or in assets constituting only Collateral will be   subject to Section 411(b) and not Section 411(c).   (g) The Company shall, not later than 45 days after the Company becomes   obligated to make an Offer pursuant to this Section 411, send a notice to each Holder with a copy   to the Trustee stating: (1) that an Asset Disposition that requires the purchase of a portion of the   Notes has occurred and that such Holder has the right (subject to the prorating described below)   to require the Company to purchase a portion of such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in cash   equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but   not including the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on a record date to   receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the purchase date);   (2) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 10 days nor later than 60 days from the   date such notice is sent, except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the   purchase date if the purchase date is delayed as provided in clause (5) of this Section 411(c));   (3) the instructions determined by the Company, consistent with this Section 411, that a Holder   must follow in order to have its Notes purchased; (4) the amount of the Offer, which amount may   be contingent upon the Net Available Cash remaining following the application of Net Available   Cash pursuant to Section 411(b)(A) and Section 411(c)(A); and (5) if such notice is sent prior to   the date the Net Available Cash attributable to such Asset Disposition is received, that such offer   is conditioned upon receipt of such Net Available Cash and that the purchase date may, in the   Company’s discretion, be delayed until such time as the Net Available Cash is received. If, upon   the expiration of the period for which the Offer remains open, the aggregate principal amount of   Notes surrendered by Holders exceeds the amount of the Offer, the Company shall select the   Notes to be purchased on a pro rata basis (with such adjustments as may be deemed appropriate   by the Company so that only Notes in the Minimum Denomination or integral multiples of   $1,000 in excess thereof shall be purchased).   (h) If Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the   outstanding Notes of any series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in an Offer and   the Company purchases all of the Notes of such series validly tendered and not withdrawn by   such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’   prior notice, given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to such Offer, to   redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in   cash equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest to but   excluding the date of such redemption (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant   record date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the   Redemption Date). In determining whether the Holders of at least 90.0% in the aggregate   principal amount of the outstanding Notes have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn such   Notes in an offer, Notes owned by an Affiliate of the Company or by funds controlled or   managed by an Affiliate of the Company, or any successor thereof, shall be deemed to be   outstanding for the purposes of such offer.   (i) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements   of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection     
 
  124      with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 411. To the extent that the provisions of   any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 411, the Company   will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have   breached its obligations under this Section 411 by virtue thereof.   Section 412. Limitation on Transactions with Affiliates. (a) The Company will   not, and will not permit any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, enter into or conduct   any transaction or series of related transactions (including the purchase, sale, lease or exchange   of any property or the rendering of any service) with any Affiliate of the Company (an “Affiliate   Transaction”) involving aggregate consideration in excess of the greater of $90.0 million and   10.0% of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA unless (i) the terms of such Affiliate Transaction   are not materially less favorable to the Company or such Restricted Subsidiary, as the case may   be, than those that could be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not such an   Affiliate and (ii) if such Affiliate Transaction involves aggregate consideration in excess of the   greater of $177.5 million and 20.0% of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA, the terms of such   Affiliate Transaction have been approved by a majority of the Board of Directors. For purposes   of this Section 412(a), any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the   requirements set forth in this Section 412(a) if (x) such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a   majority of the Disinterested Directors or (y) in the event there are no Disinterested Directors, a   fairness opinion is provided by a nationally recognized appraisal or investment banking firm   with respect to such Affiliate Transaction.   (b) The provisions of Section 412(a) will not apply to:   (i) any Restricted Payment Transaction,   (ii) (1) the entering into, maintaining or performance of any employment or   consulting contract, collective bargaining agreement, benefit plan, program or   arrangement, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement for or with any   current or former management member, employee, officer or director or consultant of   or to the Company, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Parent or IPO Vehicle heretofore   or hereafter entered into in the ordinary course of business, including vacation, health,   insurance, deferred compensation, severance, retirement, savings or other similar   plans, programs or arrangements, (2) payments, compensation, performance of   indemnification or contribution obligations, or the making or cancellation of loans in   the ordinary course of business to any such management members, employees,   officers, directors or consultants, (3) any issuance, grant or award of stock, options,   other equity related interests or other securities, to any such management members,   employees, officers, directors or consultants, (4) the payment of reasonable fees to   directors of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent or IPO Vehicle (as   determined in good faith by the Company, such Subsidiary or such Parent or IPO   Vehicle, which determination shall be conclusive), (5) any transaction with an officer   or director of the Company or any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent in the ordinary   course of business not involving more than $100,000 in any one case or (6)     
  125      Management Advances and payments in respect thereof (or in reimbursement of any   expenses referred to in the definition of such term),   (iii) any transaction between or among any of the Company, one or more   Restricted Subsidiaries, or one or more Special Purpose Entities,   (iv) any transaction arising out of agreements or instruments in existence on   the Issue Date (other than the Tax Sharing Agreement and any Transaction Agreement   referred to in Section 4.12(b)(vii)), or any amendment, supplement, waiver or other   modification thereto (so long as such amendment, supplement, waiver or other   modification is not disadvantageous in any material respect in the good faith judgment   of the Company, whose determination shall be conclusive, to the Holders when taken   as a whole as compared to the applicable agreement or instrument as in effect on the   Issue Date), and any payments made pursuant thereto,   (v) any transaction in the ordinary course of business on terms that are fair to   the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the reasonable determination of the   Board of Directors or senior management of the Company, or are not materially less   favorable to the Company or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could   be obtained at the time in a transaction with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the   Company,   (vi) any transaction in the ordinary course of business, or approved by a   majority of the Board of Directors, between the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary   and any Affiliate of the Company controlled by the Company that is a joint venture or   similar entity,   (vii) (1) the execution, delivery and performance of any obligations under the   Tax Sharing Agreement and any Transaction Agreement, and (2) payments to CD&R   or any of its Affiliates (x) for any consulting services pursuant to the CD&R Expense   Reimbursement Agreement or as may be approved by a majority of the Disinterested   Directors, (y) in connection with any acquisition, disposition, merger, recapitalization   or similar transactions, which payments are made pursuant to the Transaction   Agreements or are approved by a majority of the Board of Directors in good faith,   which determination shall be conclusive, and (z) of all out-of-pocket expenses   incurred in connection with such services or activities,   (viii) the Transactions, all transactions in connection therewith (including but   not limited to the financing thereof), and all fees and expenses paid or payable in   connection with the Transactions, including the fees and out-of-pocket expenses of   CD&R and its Affiliates,   (ix) any issuance or sale of Capital Stock (other than Disqualified Stock) of the   Company or Junior Capital or any capital contribution to the Company,     
 
  126      (x) (i) any investment by any CD&R Investor in securities or loans of the   Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries (and payment of out-of-pocket expenses   incurred by any CD&R Investor in connection therewith) so long as such investments   are being offered by the Company or the applicable Restricted Subsidiary generally to   investors (other than CD&R Investors) on the same or more favorable terms and (ii)   payments to any CD&R Investor in respect of securities or loans of the Company or   any of its Restricted Subsidiaries contemplated in the foregoing subclause (i) or that   were acquired from Persons other than the Company and its Restricted Subsidiaries, in   each case, in accordance with the terms of such securities or loans, and   (xi) the pledge of Capital Stock, Indebtedness or other securities of any   Unrestricted Subsidiary or joint venture to lenders to support the Indebtedness or other   obligations of such Unrestricted Subsidiary or joint venture, respectively, owed to such   lenders.   Section 413. Limitation on Liens. The Company shall not, and shall not permit   any Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist any Lien (other than   Permitted Liens) on any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of any other Person),   whether owned on the date of this Indenture or thereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness   (the “Initial Lien”), unless (a) in the case of an Initial Lien on any Collateral, such Initial Lien   expressly has Junior Lien Priority on such Collateral in relation to the Notes and the Guarantees,   as applicable, or (b) in the case of an Initial Lien on any other asset or property,   contemporaneously therewith effective provision is made to secure the Indebtedness due under   this Indenture and the Notes or, in respect of any Initial Lien on any Restricted Subsidiary’s   property or assets, any Subsidiary Guarantee of such Restricted Subsidiary, equally and ratably   with (or on a senior basis to, in the case of Subordinated Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated   Obligations) such obligation for so long as such obligation is so secured by such Initial Lien.   Any such Lien thereby created in favor of the Notes or any such Subsidiary Guarantee will be   automatically and unconditionally released and discharged upon (i) the release and discharge of   the Initial Lien to which it relates, (ii) in the case of any such Lien in favor of any such   Subsidiary Guarantee, the termination and discharge of such Subsidiary Guarantee in accordance   with the terms of Section 1303 or (iii) any sale, exchange or transfer (other than a transfer   constituting a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company that is governed by   Section 501) to any Person not an Affiliate of the Company of the property or assets secured by   such Initial Lien, or of all of the Capital Stock held by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary   in, or all or substantially all the assets of, any Restricted Subsidiary creating such Initial Lien.   Section 414. Future Subsidiary Guarantors. The Company will cause each   Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary that guarantees payment by the Company or any   Subsidiary Guarantor of any Indebtedness of the Company or any such Subsidiary Guarantor   under any of the Senior Credit Facilities (including by reason of being a borrower under the   Senior ABL Facility on a joint and several basis with the Company or a Subsidiary Guarantor)   to execute and deliver to the Trustee within 30 days a supplemental indenture or other instrument   pursuant to which such Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary will guarantee payment of the     
  127      Notes, whereupon such Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary will become a Subsidiary   Guarantor for all purposes under this Indenture. Within 90 days of any Wholly Owned Domestic   Subsidiary so becoming a Subsidiary Guarantor, the Company will also cause such Subsidiary   Guarantor to execute and deliver such documents and instruments as shall be reasonably   necessary to cause its property and assets of a type that would constitute Collateral to be made   subject to a perfected Lien (subject to Liens permitted by this Indenture, including Permitted   Liens) in favor of the Note Collateral Agent, as and to the extent provided in Section 1503;   provided that if any other Cash Flow Collateral Obligations are outstanding at such time, the   execution and delivery of such documents and instruments will only be required, and such   property and assets will only become part of the Collateral securing the Notes, if and to the   extent that such property and assets become part of the Collateral securing such other Cash Flow   Collateral Obligations substantially concurrently therewith; provided that any party will take all   further action, that may be necessary or desirable or that any party may reasonably request, in   order to protect any right or interest granted or purpose to be granted under the Base Intercreditor   Agreement or to enable such party to exercise and enforce its right and remedies under the Base   Intercreditor Agreement. The Company will also have the right to cause any other Subsidiary to   guarantee payment of the Notes. Subsidiary Guarantees will be subject to release and discharge   under certain circumstances prior to payment in full of the Notes.   Section 415. Purchase of Notes Upon a Change of Control. (a) Upon the   occurrence after the Issue Date of a Change of Control, each Holder of Notes will have the right   to require the Company to repurchase all or any part of such Notes at a purchase price in cash   (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus   accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the date of repurchase (subject to the   right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the   relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the purchase date pursuant to Section 307);   provided, however, that the Company shall not be obligated to repurchase Notes pursuant to this   Section 415 in the event that it has exercised its right to redeem all of the Notes as provided in   Article X.   (b) In the event that, at the time of such Change of Control, the terms of any   Credit Facility Indebtedness constituting Designated Senior Indebtedness restrict or prohibit   the repurchase of the Notes pursuant to this Section 415, then prior to the sending of the notice   to Holders provided for in Section 415(c) but in any event not later than 30 days following the   date the Company obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control (unless the Company   has exercised its right to redeem all the Notes as provided in Article X), the Company shall, or   shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to, (i) repay in full all such Credit Facility   Indebtedness subject to such terms or offer to repay in full all such Credit Facility Indebtedness   and repay the Credit Facility Indebtedness of each lender who has accepted such offer or   (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements governing such Credit Facility   Indebtedness to permit the repurchase of the Notes as provided for in Section 415(c). The   Company shall first comply with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence before   it shall be required to repurchase such Notes pursuant to the provisions set forth in this   Section 415. The Company’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Section 415(b) or     
 
  128      Section 415(c) shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 601(iv) and not under   Section 601(ii).   (c) Unless the Company has exercised its right to redeem all the Notes as   described in Article X, the Company shall, not later than 30 days following the date the   Company obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control having occurred, send a notice (a   “Change of Control Offer”) to each Holder with a copy to the Trustee stating: (1) that a Change   of Control has occurred or may occur and that such Holder has, or upon such occurrence will   have, the right to require the Company to purchase such Holder’s Notes at a purchase price in   cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any,   to but not including the date of purchase (subject to the right of Holders of record on the   relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling   prior to or on the purchase date); (2) the repurchase date (which shall be no earlier than 10 days   nor later than 60 days from the date such notice is sent, except that such notice may be   delivered more than 60 days prior to the purchase date if the purchase date is delayed as   provided in clause (4) of this Section 415(c)); (3) the instructions determined by the Company,   consistent with this Section 415, that a Holder must follow in order to have its Notes   purchased; and (4) if such notice is sent prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, that   such offer is conditioned on the occurrence of such Change of Control and that the purchase   date may, in the Company’s discretion, be delayed until such time as the Change of Control   has occurred. No Note will be repurchased in part if less than the Minimum Denomination in   original principal amount of such Note would be left outstanding.   (d) The Company will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer   upon a Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner,   at the times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Indenture   applicable to a Change of Control Offer made by the Company and purchases all Notes validly   tendered and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) in connection with or   in contemplation of any Change of Control, to the extent a definitive agreement is in place for   the Change of Control at such time, the Company (or any Affiliate of the Company) has made   an offer to purchase (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Notes validly tendered at a cash price   equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has purchased all Notes properly   tendered in connection with the terms of the Alternate Offer.   (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control   Offer or an Alternate Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon   such Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the   time of making of the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer.   (f) A Change of Control Offer or an Alternate Offer may be made at the same   time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this   Indenture, Notes, Parent Guarantee and/or Subsidiary Guarantees.   (g) If Holders of not less than 90.0% in aggregate principal amount of the   outstanding Notes of any series validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in a Change of     
  129      Control Offer or an Alternate Offer and the Company, or any third party making a Change of   Control Offer or any Affiliate of the Company making an Alternate Offer in lieu of the   Company as described in Section 415(d), purchases all of the Notes of such series validly   tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company or such third party or such Affiliate   will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not more   than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to such Change of Control Offer or such   Alternate Offer, to redeem all Notes of such series that remain outstanding following such   purchase at a price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof plus accrued and   unpaid interest to but excluding the date of such redemption (subject to the right of Holders of   record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest   Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date). In determining whether the Holders   of at least 90.0% in the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have validly   tendered and not validly withdrawn such Notes in a Change of Control Offer or an Alternate   Offer, Notes owned by an Affiliate of the Company or by funds controlled or managed by an   Affiliate of the Company, or any successor thereof, shall be deemed to be outstanding for the   purposes of such Change of Control Offer or such Alternate Offer.   (h) The Company will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements   of Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection   with the repurchase of Notes pursuant to this Section 415. To the extent that the provisions of   any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Section 415, the Company   will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be deemed to have   breached its obligations under this Section 415 by virtue thereof.   Section 416. Suspension of Covenants on Achievement of Investment Grade   Rating. (a) If on any day following the Issue Date (a) the Notes have an Investment Grade   Rating from either of the Rating Agencies and (b) no Default has occurred and is continuing   under this Indenture, then, beginning on that day (the “Suspension Date”) subject to the   provisions of the following paragraph, the covenants listed under Section 407, Section 409,   Section 410, Section 411, Section 412, Section 414, Section 501(a)(iii) and Section 501(a)(iv)   (collectively, the “Suspended Covenants”) will be suspended. During any period that the   foregoing covenants have been suspended, the Board of Directors may not designate any of its   Subsidiaries as Unrestricted Subsidiaries unless such designation would have complied with   Section 409 as if Section 409 would have been in effect during such period.   (b) If on any subsequent date both of the Rating Agencies have assigned   ratings to the Notes below an Investment Grade Rating, the foregoing covenants will be   reinstated (and any Collateral acquired during the Suspension Period will be pledged to secure   the Notes, the Parent Guarantee and the Subsidiary Guarantees, as applicable, pursuant to   Section 1503) as of and from the time at which the Company obtains actual knowledge of such   ratings (any such time, a “Reversion Time”). The period of time between the Suspension Date   and the Reversion Time is referred to as the “Suspension Period.” Upon such reinstatement, all   Indebtedness Incurred during the Suspension Period will be deemed to have been Incurred   under the exception provided by Section 407(b)(iii)(B). With respect to Restricted Payments     
 
  130      made after any such reinstatement, the amount of Restricted Payments will be calculated as if   Section 409 had been in effect prior to, but not during, the Suspension Period. For purposes of   Section 411, upon the occurrence of a Reversion Time the amount of Net Available Cash not   applied in accordance with such covenant will be deemed to be reset to zero. In addition, for   purposes of Section 412, all agreements and arrangements entered into by the Company and   any Restricted Subsidiary with an Affiliate of the Company during the Suspension Period prior   to such Reversion Time will be deemed to have been entered into on or prior to the Issue Date,   and for purposes of Section 410, all contracts entered into during the Suspension Period prior   to such Reversion Time that contain any of the encumbrances or restrictions subject to such   covenant will be deemed to have been existing on the Issue Date. The Parent Guarantee of   Holdings and the Subsidiary Guarantees of the Subsidiary Guarantors will be suspended during   the Suspension Period.   (c) During the Suspension Period, any reference in the definitions of   “Permitted Liens” and “Unrestricted Subsidiary” to Section 407 or any provision thereof shall   be construed as if such covenant were in effect during the Suspension Period.   Notwithstanding that the Suspended Covenants may be reinstated, no Default or   Event of Default will be deemed to have occurred as a result of any actions taken by the   Company or any Subsidiary (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any failure to (x) comply   with the Suspended Covenants or (y) grant, perfect or maintain the effect of any party’s security   interest in any Collateral acquired during the Suspension Period) or other events that occurred   during any Suspension Period (or upon termination of the Suspension Period or after that time   arising out of events that occurred or actions taken during the Suspension Period) and the   Company and any Subsidiary will be permitted, without causing a Default or Event of Default or   breach of any kind under this Indenture, to honor, comply with or otherwise perform any   contractual commitments or obligations entered into during a Suspension Period following a   Reversion Time and to consummate the transactions contemplated thereby.   (d) The Company shall deliver promptly to the Trustee an Officer’s   Certificate notifying it of the occurrence of any Suspension Date or any Reversion Time, but   failure to so notify the Trustee shall not invalidate the occurrence of any Suspension Date or   Reversion Time and shall not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Company. The   Trustee shall have no independent obligation to determine if a Suspension Period (or any   Reversion Time) has commenced or terminated or to notify Holders regarding the same.   ARTICLE V      SUCCESSORS   Section 501. When the Company May Merge, Etc. (a) The Company will not   consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, lease or otherwise transfer all or substantially   all its assets to, any Person, unless:     
  131      (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Company”)   will be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State   thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor Company (if not the Company) will   expressly assume all the obligations of the Company under the Intercreditor Agreements, Note   Security Documents, Notes and this Indenture by executing and delivering to the Trustee a   supplemental indenture or one or more other documents or instruments in form reasonably   satisfactory to the Trustee;   (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any   Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Company or any Restricted Subsidiary   as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor Company or such   Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default will have occurred and be   continuing;   (iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, either (A) the   Company (or, if applicable, the Successor Company with respect thereto) could Incur at least   $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Section 407(a) or Section 407(b)(xvii), (B) the   Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Company (or, if applicable, the Successor Company with   respect thereto) would equal or exceed the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Company   immediately prior to giving effect to such transaction or (C) the Consolidated Total Leverage   Ratio of the Company (or, if applicable, the Successor Company with respect thereto) would   equal or be less than the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of the Company immediately prior   to giving effect to such transaction;   (iv) each Subsidiary Guarantor (other than (x) any Subsidiary Guarantor that   will be released from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee in connection with such   transaction and (y) any party to any such consolidation or merger) shall have delivered a   supplemental indenture or other document or instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to the   Trustee, confirming its Subsidiary Guarantee (other than any Subsidiary Guarantee that will be   discharged or terminated in connection with such transaction); and   (v) the Company will have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate   and an Opinion of Counsel, each to the effect that such consolidation, merger or transfer   complies with the provisions described in this Section 501(a); provided that (x) in giving such   opinion such counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to compliance with the foregoing   clauses (ii) and (iii) and as to any matters of fact and (y) no Opinion of Counsel will be required   for a consolidation, merger or transfer described in Section 501(b).   Immediately after giving effect to any transaction involving the Company in   accordance with Section 501(a) in which the Company is not the Successor Company, the   Collateral owned by the Successor Company upon giving effect thereto (including any Collateral   transferred to the Successor Company pursuant to such transaction) shall continue to constitute   Collateral under this Indenture and the Note Security Documents and be subject to the Lien in   favor of the Note Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and   the Holders of the Notes, and shall not be subject to any Lien other than Permitted Liens, in each     
 
  132      case except as otherwise permitted by or provided in this Indenture and the Note Security   Documents. Any property and assets of any Person that is so consolidated or merged with the   Company, to the extent of a type that would constitute Collateral under the Note Security   Documents (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Assets), shall be treated as   After Acquired Property and the Successor Company shall take such action as may be reasonably   necessary to cause such property and assets to be made subject to a Lien in favor of the Note   Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and the Holders of the   Notes, in each case to the extent required under Section 1503.   Any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Company (or, if applicable,   the Successor Company with respect thereto) or any Restricted Subsidiary (or that is deemed to   be Incurred by any Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) as a result of any   such transaction undertaken in compliance with this Section 501, and any Refinancing   Indebtedness with respect thereto, shall be deemed to have been Incurred in compliance with   Section 407.   (b) Clauses (ii) and (iii) of Section 501(a) will not apply to any transaction in   which the Company consolidates or merges with or into or transfers all or substantially all its   properties and assets to (x) an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of   reincorporating or reorganizing the Company in another jurisdiction or changing its legal   structure to a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity or (y) a   Restricted Subsidiary of the Company so long as all assets of the Company and the Restricted   Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction (other than Capital Stock of such Restricted   Subsidiary) are owned by such Restricted Subsidiary and its Restricted Subsidiaries   immediately after the consummation thereof. Section 501(a) will not apply to (1) any   transaction in which any Restricted Subsidiary consolidates with, merges into or transfers all or   part of its assets to the Company or (2) the Transactions.   (c) For purposes of this Section 501, so long as at the time of any Minority   Business Disposition or any Minority Business Offering the Minority Business Disposition   Condition is met, the Minority Business Assets shall not be deemed at any time to constitute all   or substantially all of the assets of the Company, and any sale or transfer of all or any part of   the Minority Business Assets (whether directly or indirectly, whether by sale or transfer of any   such assets, or of any Capital Stock or other interest in any Person holding such assets, or any   consolidation or merger, or any combination thereof, and whether in one or more transactions,   or otherwise, including any Minority Business Offering or any Minority Business Disposition)   shall not be deemed at any time to constitute a consolidation with or merger with or into, or   conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company to, any   Person.   Section 502. Successor Company Substituted. Upon any transaction involving   the Company in accordance with Section 501 in which the Company is not the Successor   Company, the Successor Company will succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise   every right and power of, the Company under this Indenture, and shall become the “Company”     
  133      for all purposes of this Indenture, and thereafter the predecessor Company shall be relieved of all   obligations and covenants under this Indenture, and shall cease to constitute the “Company” for   all purposes of this Indenture, except that the predecessor Company in the case of a lease of all   or substantially all its assets shall not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of and   interest on the Notes.   ARTICLE VI      REMEDIES   Section 601. Events of Default. An “Event of Default” means the occurrence of   the following:   (i) a default in any payment of interest on any Note when due, continued for   30 days;   (ii) a default in the payment of principal of any Note when due, whether at its   Stated Maturity, upon optional redemption, upon required repurchase, upon   declaration of acceleration or otherwise;   (iii) the failure by the Company to comply with its obligations under Section   501(a);   (iv) the failure by the Company to comply for 30 days after the notice   specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with any of its obligations   under Section 415 (other than a failure to purchase the Notes);   (v) the failure by the Company to comply for (x) 180 days after the notice   specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with any of its obligations   under Section 405 or (y) 60 days after the notice specified in the penultimate   paragraph of this Section 601 with its other agreements contained in the Notes or this   Indenture;   (vi) the failure by any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply for 45 days after the   notice specified in the penultimate paragraph of this Section 601 with its obligations   under its Subsidiary Guarantee;   (vii) the failure by the Company or any Restricted Subsidiary to pay any   Indebtedness for borrowed money (other than (x) Indebtedness owed to the Company   or any Restricted Subsidiary, (y) any Indebtedness in relation to which the Company   or any Restricted Subsidiary is contesting such default in good faith and (z) any   Indebtedness arising pursuant to a Special Purpose Financing or a Financing   Disposition if and to the extent permitted under this Indenture) within any applicable   grace period after final maturity or the acceleration of any such Indebtedness by the   holders thereof because of a default, if the total amount of such Indebtedness so unpaid     
 
  134      or accelerated exceeds the greater of $177.5 million and 20.0% of Four Quarter   Consolidated EBITDA or its foreign currency equivalent; provided that no Default or   Event of Default will be deemed to occur with respect to any such Indebtedness that is   paid or otherwise acquired or retired (or for which such failure to pay or acceleration is   waived or rescinded) within 20 Business Days after such failure to pay or such   acceleration;   (viii) the taking of any of the following actions by the Company or a   Significant Subsidiary, pursuant to or within the meaning of any Bankruptcy Law:   (A) the commencement of a voluntary case;   (B) the consent to the entry of an order for relief against it in an   involuntary case;   (C) the consent to the appointment of a Custodian of it or for any   substantial part of its property; or   (D) the making of a general assignment for the benefit of its creditors;   (ix) a court of competent jurisdiction enters an order or decree under any   Bankruptcy Law that:   (A) is for relief against the Company or any Significant Subsidiary in   an involuntary case;   (B) appoints a Custodian of the Company or any Significant   Subsidiary or for any substantial part of its property; or   (C) orders the winding up or liquidation of the Company or any   Significant Subsidiary;   and the order or decree remains unstayed and in effect for 60 days;   (x) the rendering of any judgment or decree for the payment of money in an   amount (net of any insurance or indemnity payments actually received in respect   thereof prior to or within 90 days from the entry thereof, or to be received in respect   thereof in the event of any appeal thereof shall be unsuccessful, or that the Company   has determined there exists reasonable evidence that such amount will be reimbursed   by the insurer or indemnifying party and such amount is not denied by the applicable   insurer or indemnifying party in writing within 180 days and is reimbursed within 365   days of the date of such evidence) in excess of the greater of $177.5 million and 20.0%   of Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA or its foreign currency equivalent against the   Company or a Significant Subsidiary that is not discharged, satisfied, supported by a   letter of credit or bonded or insured by a third Person, if such judgment or decree     
  135      remains outstanding for a period of 90 days following such judgment or decree and is   not discharged, waived or stayed;   (xi) the failure of any Subsidiary Guarantee by a Subsidiary Guarantor that is a   Significant Subsidiary to be in full force and effect (except as contemplated by the   terms thereof or of this Indenture) or the denial or disaffirmation in writing by any   Subsidiary Guarantor that is a Significant Subsidiary of its obligations under this   Indenture or any Subsidiary Guarantee (other than by reason of the termination of this   Indenture or such Subsidiary Guarantee or the release of such Subsidiary Guarantee in   accordance with such Subsidiary Guarantee or this Indenture), if such Default   continues for 10 days; or   (xii) with respect to any Collateral, individually or in the aggregate, having a   Fair Market Value in excess of the greater of $177.5 million and 20.0% of Four   Quarter Consolidated EBITDA, any of the Note Security Documents ceases to be in   full force and effect, or any of the Note Security Documents ceases to give the holders   of the Notes the Liens purported to be created thereby, or any of the Note Security   Documents is declared null and void or the Company or any Guarantor denies in   writing that it has any further liability under any Note Security Document (in each   case (i) other than in accordance with the terms of this Indenture or any of the Note   Security Documents or (ii) unless waived by the requisite creditors under the Senior   Cash Flow Agreement (or by their agent or other representative on their behalf) or the   Senior ABL Agreement (or by their agent or other representative on their behalf) if,   after that waiver, the Company is in compliance with Article XV, except to the extent   that any loss of perfection or priority results from the failure of the Note Collateral   Agent, the Cash Flow Agent (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement), the   ABL Agent (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement), any Additional Agent   (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement), the Cash Flow Collateral   Representative (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement) or the ABL Collateral   Representative (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement) to maintain   possession of certificates actually delivered to it representing securities, promissory   notes or other instruments pledged under the Note Security Documents, or otherwise   results from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Note Collateral Agent,   the Cash Flow Agent (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement), the ABL Agent   (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement), any Additional Agent (as defined in   the Base Intercreditor Agreement), the Cash Flow Collateral Representative (as   defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement) or the ABL Collateral Representative (as   defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement); provided, that if a failure of the sort   described in this Section 601(xii) is susceptible of cure (including with respect to any   loss of Lien priority on material portions of the Collateral), no Event of Default shall   arise under this Section 601(xii) with respect thereto until 30 days after notice of such   failure shall have been given to the Company.     
 
  136      The foregoing will constitute Events of Default whatever the reason for any such   Event of Default and whether it is voluntary or involuntary or is effected by operation of law or   pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any   administrative or governmental body.   The term “Bankruptcy Law” means Title 11, United States Code, or any similar   Federal, state or foreign law for the relief of debtors. The term “Custodian” means any receiver,   trustee, assignee, liquidator, custodian or similar official under any Bankruptcy Law.   However, a Default under Section 601(iv), Section 601(v), Section 601(vi) or   Section 601(xii) will not constitute an Event of Default until the Trustee or the Holders of at least   30.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (which contain such Defaults) notify the   Company (and the Trustee in the case of notice from Holders) in writing of the Default and the   Company does not cure such Default within the time specified in such clause after receipt of   such notice; provided that a notice of Default with respect to any action taken, and reported   publicly or to Holders more than two years prior to such notice of Default, may not be given and   any such notice shall be invalid and have no effect. Such notice must specify the Default,   demand that it be remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default”. When a Default   or an Event of Default is cured, it ceases.   The Company shall deliver to the Trustee, within 30 days after the occurrence   thereof, written notice in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of any Event of Default under   Section 601(vii), Section 601(x) or Section 601(xii) and any event that with the giving of notice   or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under Section 601(iv), Section 601(v) or   Section 601(vi), its status and what action the Company is taking or proposes to take with respect   thereto.   Section 602. Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment. If an Event   of Default (other than an Event of Default specified in Section 601(viii) or Section 601(ix) with   respect to the Company) occurs and is continuing, unless otherwise specified for Notes of any   series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 301, the   Trustee by written notice to the Company, or the Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount   of the Outstanding Notes (which contain such Defaults) by written notice to the Company and   the Trustee, in either case specifying in such notice the respective Event of Default and that such   notice is a “notice of acceleration,” may declare the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest   on all the Notes to be due and payable. Upon the effectiveness of such a declaration, such   principal and interest will be due and payable immediately.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default specified in   Section 601(viii) or Section 601(ix) with respect to the Company occurs and is continuing,   unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental   Indenture, as contemplated by Section 301, the principal of and accrued but unpaid interest on all   the Outstanding Notes will ipso facto become immediately due and payable without any   declaration or other act on the part of the Trustee or any Holders.     
  137      The Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (which   contain such Event of Default which has been accelerated) by notice to the Company and the   Trustee may rescind an acceleration and its consequences if the rescission would not conflict   with any judgment or decree and if all existing Events of Default have been cured or waived   except non-payment of principal or interest that has become due solely because of such   acceleration. No such rescission shall affect any subsequent Default or impair any right   consequent thereto.   Any time period in this Indenture to cure any actual or alleged Default or Event of   Default may be extended or stayed by a court of competent jurisdiction to the extent such actual   or alleged Default or Event of Default is the subject of litigation.   Section 603. Other Remedies; Collection Suit by Trustee. If an Event of   Default occurs and is continuing, the Trustee and the Note Collateral Agent may, but are not   obligated under this Section 603 to, pursue any available remedy to collect the payment of   principal of or interest on the Notes or to enforce the performance of any provision of the Notes,   this Indenture or the Note Security Documents. If an Event of Default specified in   Section 601(i) or 601(ii) occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may recover judgment in its own   name and as trustee of an express trust against the Company for the whole amount then due and   owing (together with interest on any unpaid interest to the extent lawful) and the amounts   provided for in Section 707.   Section 604. Trustee May File Proofs of Claim. The Trustee may file such   proofs of claim and other papers or documents, in accordance with the terms of any applicable   Intercreditor Agreements as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the   Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and the Holders allowed in any judicial proceedings relative   to the Company or any other obligor upon the Notes, its creditors or its property and, unless   prohibited by law or applicable regulations, may vote on behalf of the Holders in any election of   a trustee in bankruptcy or other Person performing similar functions, and any Custodian in any   such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Holder to make payments to the Trustee   and, in the event that the Trustee shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the   Holders, to pay to the Trustee any amount due it for the reasonable compensation, expenses,   disbursements and advances of the Trustee, its agents and its counsel, and any other amounts due   the Trustee under Section 707.   No provision of this Indenture shall be deemed to authorize the Trustee to   authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Holder any plan of reorganization,   arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof   or to authorize the Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Holder in any such proceeding.   Section 605. Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Notes. All   rights of action and claims under this Indenture or the Notes may be prosecuted and enforced by   the Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any   proceeding relating thereto, and any such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in   its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment shall, after provision     
 
  138      for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the   Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes in respect of   which such judgment has been recovered.   Section 606. Application of Money Collected. Any money or property collected   by the Trustee or the Note Collateral Agent pursuant to this Article VI shall be applied in the   following order, at the date or dates fixed by the Trustee and, in case of the distribution of such   money or property on account of principal (or premium, if any) or interest, upon presentation of   the Notes and the notation thereon of the payment if only partially paid and upon surrender   thereof if fully paid:   First: to the payment of all amounts due the Trustee under Section 707;   Second: to the payment of all amounts due the Note Collateral Agent under   Section 1510;   Third: to the payment of the amounts then due and unpaid upon the Notes for   principal (and premium, if any) and interest, in respect of which or for the benefit of   which such money has been collected, ratably, without preference or priority of any kind,   according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal (and premium, if   any) and interest, respectively; and   Fourth: to the Company.   The foregoing provisions of this Section 606 are subject to the terms of the   Intercreditor Agreements, to Subsection 6.5 of the Collateral Agreement, to any   corresponding provision of any other Note Security Document relating to application of   such money or property, and to Section 1509(l).   Section 607. Limitation on Suits. No Holder may pursue any remedy (including   taking or instituting any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy or   asserting any other cause of action against the Company or any Guarantor (including the exercise   of any right of set-off, rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of   self-help), or instituting any actions or proceedings or any other cause of action, or otherwise   commencing any remedial procedures) with respect to this Indenture, the Note Security   Documents or the Notes unless:   (i) such Holder has previously given the Trustee written notice that an Event   of Default is continuing;   (ii) Holders of at least 30.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes   (which contain such Defaults) have requested the Trustee in writing to pursue the   remedy;     
  139      (iii) such Holders have offered the Trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to   it against any loss, liability or expense;   (iv) the Trustee has not complied with such request within 60 days after receipt   of the request and the offer of security or indemnity; and   (v) Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (which   contain such Defaults) have not given the Trustee a written direction inconsistent with   such request within such 60-day period.   For the avoidance of doubt, this provision may be enforced against any Holder by   the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the outstanding Notes, the Trustee or the   Company (or any of its Affiliates) and each Holder expressly acknowledges that this provision   shall be available as a defense of the Company (or any of its Affiliates) in any action,   proceeding, cause of action or remedial procedure.   A Holder may not use this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of   another Holder, to obtain a preference or priority over another Holder or to enforce any right   under this Indenture except in the manner herein provided and for the equal and ratable benefit of   all Holders.   Section 608. [Reserved].   Section 609. Restoration of Rights and Remedies. If the Trustee or any Holder   has instituted any proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture or any Note   and such proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason, or has been determined   adversely to the Trustee or to such Holder, then and in every such case the Company, any other   obligor upon the Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall, subject to any determination in such   proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and   thereafter all rights and remedies of the Trustee and the Holders shall continue as though no such   proceeding had been instituted.   Section 610. Rights and Remedies Cumulative. No right or remedy herein   conferred upon or reserved to the Trustee or to the Holders is intended to be exclusive of any   other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be   cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter   existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy   hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other   appropriate right or remedy.   Section 611. Delay or Omission Not Waiver. No delay or omission of the   Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent or of any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy   accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver   of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this   Article VI or by law to the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent or to the Holders may be exercised     
 
  140      from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Trustee, the Note Collateral   Agent or by the Holders, as the case may be.   Section 612. Control by Holders. The Holders of not less than a majority in   aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (which contain such Defaults) shall have   the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy   available to the Trustee or of exercising any trust or power conferred on the Trustee; provided   that   (1) such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this   Indenture, and   (2) the Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Trustee which   is not inconsistent with such direction.   However, the Trustee may refuse to follow any direction that conflicts with law or   this Indenture or, subject to Section 701, that the Trustee determines is unduly prejudicial to the   rights of any other Holder or that would involve the Trustee in personal liability. Prior to taking   any action under this Indenture, the Trustee shall be entitled to indemnification satisfactory to it   in its sole discretion against all losses and expenses caused by taking or not taking such action.   Section 613. Waiver of Past Defaults. The Holders of not less than a majority in   aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (which contain such Default) may on   behalf of the Holders of all the Notes waive any past Default hereunder and its consequences,   except a Default   (1) in the payment of principal of or interest on any Note (which may only be   waived with the consent of each Holder of Notes affected), or   (2) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof that pursuant to the second   paragraph of Section 902 cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the   Holder of each Outstanding Note affected.   Upon any such waiver, such Default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default   arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured, for every purpose of this Indenture; but no   such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default or impair any   right consequent thereon. In case of any such waiver, the Company, any other obligor upon the   Notes, the Trustee and the Holders shall be restored to their former positions and rights   hereunder and under the Notes, respectively.   Section 614. Undertaking for Costs. All parties to this Indenture agree, and   each Holder of any Note by such Holder’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed,   that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or   remedy under this Indenture or the Notes, or in any suit against the Trustee for any action taken,   suffered or omitted by it as Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking     
  141      to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs,   including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to   the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such party litigant. This Section 614   shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Trustee, to any suit instituted by any Holder, or group   of Holders, holding in the aggregate more than 10.0% in principal amount of the Outstanding   Notes (which contain the applicable Event of Default), or to any suit instituted by any Holder for   the enforcement of the payment of principal of (or premium, if any) or interest on any Note on or   after the respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Dates expressed in such Note.   Section 615. Waiver of Stay, Extension or Usury Laws. The Company agrees   (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it shall not at any time insist upon, or plead, or in   any manner whatsoever claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law or   any usury or other similar law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that   would prohibit or forgive the Company from paying all or any portion of the principal of (or   premium, if any) or interest on the Notes contemplated herein or in the Notes or that may affect   the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Company (to the extent that it may   lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and shall not   hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Trustee, but will suffer   and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.   ARTICLE VII      THE TRUSTEE   Section 701. Certain Duties and Responsibilities. (a) Except during the   continuance of an Event of Default,   (1) the Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are   specifically set forth in this Indenture, and no implied covenants or obligations shall be   read into this Indenture against the Trustee; and   (2) in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Trustee may conclusively rely,   as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein,   upon certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming to the requirements   of this Indenture; but in the case of any such certificates or opinions that by any provision   hereof are specifically required to be furnished to the Trustee, the Trustee shall be under a   duty to examine the same to determine whether or not they conform to the requirements   of this Indenture, but need not verify the contents thereof.   (b) In case an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee   shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same   degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the   circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.     
 
  142      (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Trustee   from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act, or its own willful   misconduct, except that (i) this paragraph does not limit the effect of Section 701(a); (ii) the   Trustee shall not be liable for any action taken or error of judgment made in good faith by it or   any of its officers, employees or agents, unless it is proved that the Trustee was negligent in   ascertaining the pertinent facts; and (iii) the Trustee shall not be liable with respect to any   action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it   pursuant to Section 612.   (d) No provision of this Indenture shall require the Trustee to expend or risk   its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties   hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if repayment of such funds or   adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.   (e) Whether or not therein expressly so provided, every provision of this   Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the   Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section 701 and Section 703.   Section 702. Notice of Defaults. If a Default occurs and is continuing and is   actually known to a Trust Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee must send to each Holder notice of   the Default within 90 days after a Trust Officer of the Trustee has obtained actual knowledge   thereof, unless such Default shall have been cured or waived. Except in the case of a Default in   the payment of principal of, or premium, if any, or interest on, any Note, the Trustee may   withhold notice if and so long as the Trustee in good faith determines that the withholding of   such notice is in the interests of the Holders. The Trustee shall not be deemed to have   knowledge of any Defaults or Events of Default unless a Trust Officer of the Trustee shall have   obtained actual knowledge thereof and a written notice of such an event has been received by the   Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and such notice references the Notes and this Indenture and   states that it is a “Notice of Default.”   Section 703. Certain Rights of Trustee. Subject to the provisions of   Section 701:   (1) the Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from   acting upon any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,   request, direction, consent, order, bond, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other   paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by   the proper party or parties;   (2) any request or direction of the Company mentioned herein shall be   sufficiently evidenced by a Company Request or Company Order thereof, and any   resolution of any Person’s board of directors shall be sufficiently evidenced if certified by   an Officer of such Person as having been duly adopted and being in full force and effect   on the date of such certificate;     
  143      (3) whenever in the administration of this Indenture the Trustee shall deem it   desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to taking, suffering or omitting any   action hereunder, the Trustee (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed)   may, in the absence of bad faith on its part, rely upon an Officer’s Certificate of the   Company;   (4) the Trustee shall be entitled to request and receive written instructions   from the Company and shall have no responsibility or liability for any losses or damages   of any nature that may arise from any action taken or not taken by the Trustee in   accordance with the written direction of the Company;   (5) the Trustee may consult with counsel and the advice of such counsel or   any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection from   liability in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith   and in reliance thereon;   (6) the Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or   powers vested in it by this Indenture at the request or direction of any of the Holders   pursuant to this Indenture, unless such Holders shall have offered to the Trustee security   or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which might be   incurred by it in compliance with such request or direction;   (7) the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or   matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice,   request, direction, consent, order, bond, note, other evidence of indebtedness or other   paper or document;   (8) the Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform   any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and the Trustee   shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or   attorney appointed with due care by it hereunder;   (9) to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Trustee shall not be liable to   any Person for special, punitive, indirect, consequential or incidental loss or damage of   any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Trustee has   been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of   action; and   (10) the permissive rights of the Trustee to do things enumerated in this   Indenture shall not be construed as a duty unless so specified herein.   The rights, protections and indemnities afforded the Trustee hereunder shall   equally apply to it acting as Note Collateral Agent (or any other role) hereunder or under any   Note Security Document; provided that, with respect to acting as the Note Collateral Agent,   references to the Note Collateral Agent being liable to the extent of its negligence shall be     
 
  144      replaced with references to the Note Collateral Agent being liable to the extent of its gross   negligence.   Section 704. Not Responsible for Recitals or Issuance of Notes. The recitals   contained herein and in the Notes, except the Trustee’s certificates of authentication, shall be   taken as the statements of the Company, and neither the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent   assumes any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the   validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the Trustee represents that it   is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture, authenticate the Notes and perform its   obligations hereunder and that the statements made by it in a Statement of Eligibility and   Qualification on Form T-1 supplied to the Company and any other obligor upon the Notes in   connection with the registration of any Notes, Parent Guarantee or Subsidiary Guarantees issued   hereunder are and will be true and accurate subject to the qualifications set forth therein. Neither   the Trustee nor any Authenticating Agent shall be accountable for the use or application by the   Company of any series of Notes or the proceeds thereof.   Section 705. May Hold Notes. The Trustee, any Authenticating Agent, any   Paying Agent, any Note Registrar or any other agent of the Company, in its individual or any   other capacity, may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and, subject to Section 708 and   Section 713, may otherwise deal with the Company or its Affiliates with the same rights it would   have if it were not Trustee, Authenticating Agent, Paying Agent, Note Registrar or such other   agent.   Section 706. Money Held in Trust. Money held by the Trustee in trust   hereunder need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law. The   Trustee shall be under no liability for interest on any money received by it hereunder except as   otherwise agreed in writing with the Company.   Section 707. Compensation and Reimbursement. The Company agrees,   (1) to pay to the Trustee from time to time the reasonable compensation   agreed to by the Company in writing for all services rendered by the Trustee hereunder   (which compensation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the   compensation of a trustee of an express trust);   (2) except as otherwise expressly provided herein, to reimburse the Trustee   upon its request for all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee in   accordance with any provision of this Indenture (including the reasonable compensation   and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel), except any such expense,   disbursement or advance as may be attributable to its negligence or willful misconduct;   and   (3) to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold it harmless against, any loss,   liability, suit, action, proceeding at law or in equity, tax, levy, fee or expense (including,   without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses and the costs of enforcement of this     
  145      Indenture, any Note Security Documents or Intercreditor Agreement or any provision   hereof or thereof) or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on the   Trustee’s part as finally adjudicated by a court of competent jurisdiction, arising out of or   in connection with the administration of the trust or trusts hereunder or in connection   with any Note Security Document or Intercreditor Agreement, including the costs and   expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise   or performance of any of its powers or duties hereunder or thereunder.   The Company need not pay for any settlement made without its consent (which consent shall not   be unreasonably withheld). The provisions of this Section 707 shall survive the termination of   this Indenture or the resignation and removal of the Trustee.   The Trustee shall have a claim prior to the Notes for payment of all amounts due   the Trustee under this Section 707 on all money or property held or collected by the Trustee,   other than money or property held in trust to pay the principal of and interest on any Notes.   Section 708. Conflicting Interests. If the Trustee has or shall acquire a   conflicting interest within the meaning of the TIA, the Trustee shall eliminate such interest,   apply to the SEC for permission to continue as Trustee with such conflict or resign, to the extent   and in the manner provided by, and subject to the provisions of, the TIA and this Indenture. The   Trustee shall not be deemed to have a conflicting interest by virtue of being a trustee under this   Indenture with respect to Initial Notes and Additional Notes, or a trustee under any other   indenture between the Company and the Trustee.   Section 709. Corporate Trustee Required; Eligibility. There shall at all times be   one (and only one) Trustee hereunder. The Trustee shall be a Person that is eligible pursuant to   the TIA to act as such and has a combined capital and surplus of at least $50.0 million. If any   such Person publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the   requirements of its supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 709   and to the extent permitted by the TIA, the combined capital and surplus of such Person shall be   deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition   so published. If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the   provisions of this Section 709, it shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect   hereinafter specified in this Article.   Section 710. Resignation and Removal; Appointment of Successor. No   resignation or removal of the Trustee and no appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to this   Article shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee in   accordance with the applicable requirements of Section 711.   The Trustee may resign at any time by giving written notice thereof to the   Company. If the instrument of acceptance by a successor Trustee required by Section 711 shall   not have been delivered to the Trustee within 30 days after the giving of such notice of   resignation, the resigning Trustee may at the expense of the Company petition any court of   competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.     
 
  146      The Trustee may be removed at any time by Act of the Holders of a majority in   principal amount of the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Trustee and to the Company.   If at any time:   (1) the Trustee shall fail to comply with Section 708 after written request   therefor by the Company or by any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for   at least six months, or   (2) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible under Section 709 and shall fail to   resign after written request therefor by the Company or by any such Holder, or   (3) the Trustee shall become incapable of acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt   or insolvent or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed or any public   officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the   purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,   then, in any such case, (A) the Company may remove the Trustee, or (B) subject to Section 614,   any Holder who has been a bona fide Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of   itself and all others similarly situated, petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the   removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.   If the Trustee shall resign, be removed or become incapable of acting, or if a   vacancy shall occur in the office of Trustee for any cause, the Company shall promptly appoint a   successor Trustee and shall comply with the applicable requirements of Section 711. If, within   one year after such resignation, removal or incapability, or the occurrence of such vacancy, a   successor Trustee shall be appointed by Act of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of   the Outstanding Notes delivered to the Company and the retiring Trustee, the successor Trustee   so appointed shall, forthwith upon its acceptance of such appointment in accordance with the   applicable requirements of Section 711, become the successor Trustee and to that extent   supersede the successor Trustee appointed by the Company. If no successor Trustee shall have   been so appointed by the Company or the Holders and accepted appointment in the manner   required by Section 711, then, subject to Section 614, any Holder who has been a bona fide   Holder of a Note for at least six months may, on behalf of itself and all others similarly situated,   petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Trustee.   The Company shall give notice of each resignation and each removal of the   Trustee and each appointment of a successor Trustee to all Holders in the manner provided in   Section 110. Each notice shall include the name of the successor Trustee and the address of its   Corporate Trust Office.   Notwithstanding the replacement of the Trustee pursuant to this Section 710, the   Company’s obligations under Section 707 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Trustee.     
  147      Section 711. Acceptance of Appointment by Successor. In case of the   appointment hereunder of a successor Trustee, every such successor Trustee so appointed shall   execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Company and to the retiring Trustee an instrument   accepting such appointment, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the retiring Trustee   shall become effective and such successor Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance,   shall become vested with all the rights, powers, trusts and duties of the retiring Trustee; but, on   the request of the Company or the successor Trustee, such retiring Trustee shall, upon payment   of its charges, execute and deliver an instrument transferring to such successor Trustee all the   rights, powers and trusts of the retiring Trustee and shall duly assign, transfer and deliver to such   successor Trustee all property and money held by such retiring Trustee hereunder.   Upon request of any such successor Trustee, the Company shall execute any and   all instruments for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to such successor Trustee   all such rights, powers and trusts referred to above.   No successor Trustee shall accept its appointment unless at the time of such   acceptance such successor Trustee shall be qualified and eligible under this Article VII.   Section 712. Merger, Conversion, Consolidation or Succession to Business.   Any corporation into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be   consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which   the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate   trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided such   corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article VII, without the execution   or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto. In case any   Notes shall have been authenticated, but not delivered, by the Trustee then in office, any   successor by merger, conversion or consolidation to such authenticating Trustee may adopt such   authentication and deliver the Notes so authenticated with the same effect as if such successor   Trustee had itself authenticated such Notes.   Section 713. Preferential Collection of Claims Against the Company. If and   when the Trustee shall be or become a creditor of the Company (or any other obligor upon the   Notes), the Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of the TIA regarding the collection of   claims against the Company (or any such other obligor) or realizing on certain property received   by it in respect of such claims.   Section 714. Appointment of Authenticating Agent. With respect to Notes of   any series, the Trustee may appoint an Authenticating Agent acceptable to the Company to   authenticate such Notes. Any such appointment shall be evidenced by an instrument in writing   signed by a Trust Officer, a copy of which instrument shall be promptly furnished to the   Company. Unless limited by the terms of such appointment, an Authenticating Agent may   authenticate Notes whenever the Trustee may do so. Each reference in this Indenture to   authentication (or execution of a certificate of authentication) by the Trustee includes   authentication (or execution of a certificate of authentication) by such Authenticating Agent. An     
 
  148      Authenticating Agent has the same rights as any Note Registrar, Paying Agent or agent for   service of notices and demands.   ARTICLE VIII      HOLDERS’ LISTS AND REPORTS BY   TRUSTEE AND THE COMPANY   Section 801. The Company to Furnish Trustee Names and Addresses of   Holders. The Company will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee   (1) semi-annually, not more than 10 days after each Regular Record Date, a   list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and addresses of   the Holders of such series as of such Regular Record Date, and   (2) at such other times as the Trustee may request in writing, within 30 days   after the receipt by the Company of any such request, a list of similar form and content as   of a date not more than 15 days prior to the time such list is furnished;   provided, however, that if and to the extent and so long as the Trustee shall be the Note   Registrar, no such list need be furnished pursuant to this Section 801.   Section 802. Preservation of Information; Communications to Holders. The   Trustee shall preserve, in as current a form as is reasonably practicable, the names and addresses   of Holders contained in the most recent list, if any, furnished to the Trustee as provided in   Section 801 and the names and addresses of Holders received by the Trustee in its capacity as   Note Registrar; provided, however, that if and so long as the Trustee shall be the Note Registrar,   the Note Register shall satisfy the requirements relating to such list. None of the Company,   Holdings, any Subsidiary Guarantor or the Trustee or any other Person shall be under any   responsibility with regard to the accuracy of such list. The Trustee may destroy any list   furnished to it as provided in Section 801 upon receipt of a new list so furnished.   The rights of Holders to communicate with other Holders with respect to their   rights under this Indenture or under the Notes, and the corresponding rights and privileges of the   Trustee, shall be as provided by the TIA.   Every Holder of Notes, by receiving and holding the same, agrees with the   Company and the Trustee that neither the Company, nor the Trustee, nor any agent of any of   them, shall be held accountable by reason of any disclosure of information as to names and   addresses of Holders made pursuant to the TIA.   Section 803. Reports by Trustee. Within 60 days after each April 1, beginning   with April 1, 2023, the Trustee shall transmit to Holders such reports concerning the Trustee and   its actions under this Indenture as may be required pursuant to the TIA at the times and in the   manner provided pursuant thereto for so long as any Notes remain outstanding. A copy of each     
  149      such report shall, at the time of such transmission to Holders, be filed by the Trustee or any   applicable listing agent with each stock exchange upon which any Notes are listed, with the SEC   and with the Company. The Company shall notify the Trustee when any Notes are listed on any   stock exchange, but any failure to so notify the Trustee shall not constitute a Default or Event of   Default by the Company.   ARTICLE IX      AMENDMENT, SUPPLEMENT OR WAIVER   Section 901. Without Consent of Holders. Without the consent of (or notice to)   any Holder, the Company, the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and (as applicable) any   Guarantor may amend or supplement this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Security Documents and   any Intercreditor Agreement (or the form set forth on Exhibit H prior to execution), for any of   the following purposes:   (1) to cure any ambiguity, mistake, omission, defect or inconsistency (as   determined by the Company in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive),   (2) to provide for the assumption by a successor of the obligations of the   Company or a Guarantor under this Indenture or any Note,   (3) to provide for uncertificated Notes in addition to or in place of certificated   Notes,   (4) to secure the Notes or to add to the Collateral (including to mortgage,   pledge, hypothecate or grant any other Lien in favor of the Note Collateral Agent for the   benefit of the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and the Holders of the Notes, as   additional security for the payment and performance of all or any portion of the Secured   Obligations, in any property or assets, including any that are required to be mortgaged,   pledged or hypothecated, or in which a Lien is required to be granted, to or for the benefit   of the Note Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture, any of the Note Security   Documents or otherwise),   (5) to evidence a successor Trustee or Note Collateral Agent,   (6) to provide for Additional Obligations pursuant to any Intercreditor   Agreement, to add Guarantees with respect to the Notes, or to confirm and evidence the   release, termination or discharge of any Guarantee or Lien with respect to or securing the   Notes when such release, termination or discharge is provided for under this Indenture,   the Notes or any of the Note Security Documents,   (7) to add to the covenants of the Company for the benefit of the Noteholders   or to surrender any right or power conferred upon the Company,     
 
  150      (8) to provide for or confirm the issuance of the Initial Notes or any   Additional Notes,   (9) to conform the text of this Indenture (including any supplemental   indenture or any other instrument pursuant to which the Initial Notes or any Additional   Notes are issued), the Notes (including the Initial Notes and any Additional Notes), any   Note Security Documents, the Base Intercreditor Agreement, the Junior Priority   Intercreditor Agreement, the Parent Guarantee or any Subsidiary Guarantee to any   provision of the “Description of Notes” or the “Description of Intercreditor Agreements”   section of the Offering Memorandum, or, with respect to any Additional Notes and any   supplemental indenture or other instrument pursuant to which such Additional Notes are   issued, to the “Description of Notes” or the “Description of Intercreditor Agreements”   section of the offering memorandum relating to the issuance of such Additional Notes   solely to the extent that such “Description of Notes” section provides for terms of such   Additional Notes that differ from the terms of the Initial Notes, in accordance with   Section 301,   (10) to make any change that does not materially adversely affect the rights of   any Holder under the Notes, this Indenture or the Note Security Documents (as   determined by the Company in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), or   (11) to comply with any requirement of the SEC in connection with the   qualification of this Indenture under the TIA or otherwise (as determined by the   Company in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive).   In addition, the Note Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreement may   be amended in accordance with the terms thereof.   Each Intercreditor Agreement may be amended from time to time with the   consent of the parties thereto. In addition, the Company may, without the consent of any other   party thereto, amend the Base Intercreditor Agreement to designate indebtedness as “Additional   Indebtedness,” and to designate one or more agreements as an “ABL Credit Agreement,” a   “Cash Flow Credit Agreement,” an “Additional ABL Credit Facility,” an “Additional Cash Flow   Credit Facility,” a “Junior Priority Credit Agreement” or an “Additional Credit Facility.” In   addition, the Company may, without the consent of any other party thereto, make such similar   amendments to the Junior Priority Intercreditor Agreement.   Section 902. With Consent of Holders. The Company, the Trustee, the Note   Collateral Agent and (as applicable) any Guarantor may amend or supplement this Indenture, the   Notes, the Note Security Documents and any Intercreditor Agreement with the consent of the   Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Outstanding Notes   (including Additional Notes, if any, and including consents obtained in connection with a tender   offer or exchange offer for Notes) and the Holders of not less than a majority in aggregate   principal amount of the Outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any, and including   consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) by notice to the     
  151      Trustee may waive any existing Default or Event of Default or compliance by the Company or   any Guarantor with any provision of this Indenture, the Notes, the Parent Guarantee, any   Subsidiary Guarantee, any Note Security Documents or any Intercreditor Agreement; provided   that (x) if any such amendment or waiver will only affect one series of Notes (or less than all   series of Notes) then outstanding under this Indenture, then only the consent of the Holders of a   majority in principal amount of the Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each   case, consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) shall be   required and (y) if any such amendment or waiver by its terms will affect a series of Notes in a   manner different and materially adverse relative to the manner such amendment or waiver affects   other series of Notes, then the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the   Notes of such series then outstanding (including, in each case, consents obtained in connection   with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes) shall be required.   Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 902, without the consent of   Holders of at least 90.0% of the principal amount of the Notes affected (including consents   obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange of the Notes), an amendment or waiver,   including a waiver pursuant to Section 613, may not:   (i) reduce the principal amount of the Notes whose Holders must consent to   an amendment or waiver;   (ii) reduce the rate of or extend the time for payment of interest on any Note;   (iii) reduce the principal of or extend the Stated Maturity of any Note;   (iv) reduce the premium payable upon the redemption of any Note or change   the date on which any Note may be redeemed as described in Section 6 of the   applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture;   (v) make any Note payable in money other than that stated in such Note;   (vi) amend or waive the legal right of any Holder of any Note to receive   payment of principal of and interest on such Note on or after the respective Stated   Maturity for such principal or Interest Payment Date for such interest expressed in   such Note, or to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment on or after such   respective Stated Maturity or Interest Payment Date; or   (vii) make any change in the amendment or waiver provisions described in this   paragraph.   Any amendment, supplement or waiver consented to by Holders of at least 90.0%   of the principal amount of the Notes affected will be binding on any non-consenting Holder of   the Notes affected.     
 
  152      It shall not be necessary for the consent of the Holders under this Section 902 to   approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, supplement or waiver, but it shall be   sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof.   After an amendment, supplement or waiver under this Section 902 becomes   effective, the Company shall send to the Holders, with a copy to the Trustee, a notice briefly   describing the amendment, supplement or waiver. Any failure of the Company to send such   notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any   supplemental indenture or the effectiveness of any such amendment, supplement or waiver.   In addition, without the consent of the Holders of at least 66⅔% in aggregate   principal amount of Outstanding Notes (including Additional Notes, if any, and including   consents obtained in connection with a tender offer or exchange offer for Notes), no amendment,   supplement or waiver may (1) make any change to any Note Security Document, any   Intercreditor Agreement, or the specified provisions in this Indenture dealing with the Collateral   or the Note Security Documents, that would release all or substantially all of the Fair Market   Value of the Collateral from the Liens of the Note Security Documents (except as permitted by   the terms of this Indenture, the Note Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements) or   would change or alter the priority of the security interests in the Collateral under any   Intercreditor Agreement in any manner adverse to the Holders in any material respect, or (2)   make any other change to any Note Security Document, any Intercreditor Agreement, or the   specified provisions in this Indenture dealing with the Collateral or the Note Security   Documents, or the application of trust proceeds of the Collateral pursuant to this Indenture, that   would adversely affect the Holders in any material respect, in each case other than in accordance   with the terms of this Indenture, the Note Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.   Section 903. Execution of Amendments, Supplements or Waivers. The Trustee   shall sign any amendment, supplement or waiver authorized pursuant to this Article IX if the   amendment, supplement or waiver does not adversely affect the rights, duties, liabilities or   immunities of the Trustee. If it does, the Trustee may, but need not, sign it. In signing or   refusing to sign such amendment, supplement or waiver, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive,   and shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel   to the effect that the execution of such amendment, supplement or waiver is authorized or   permitted or complies with this Indenture, that all conditions precedent to such amendment,   supplement or waiver required by this Indenture have been complied with and that such   amendment, supplement or waiver is a valid and binding agreement of the Company, enforceable   against the Company in accordance with its terms. For the avoidance of doubt, (a) no Officer’s   Certificate shall be required on the Issue Date for the execution of any Note Supplemental   Indenture, supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 501(a)(i) or 501(b), as applicable, or   Guarantor Supplemental Indenture and (b) no Opinion of Counsel shall be required (w) on the   Issue Date for the execution of any Note Supplemental Indenture, supplemental indenture   pursuant to Section 501(a)(i) or 501(b), as applicable, or Guarantor Supplemental Indenture, (x)   in connection with the execution of any documents reasonably requested by the Company to   evidence the release, discharge, and termination of a Subsidiary Guarantee as set forth in Section     
  153      1303 or any Guarantor Supplemental Indenture, (y) in connection with the execution of any   documents reasonably requested by the Company to evidence the release, discharge, and   termination of the Parent Guarantee as set forth in Section 1403 and (z) in connection with the   transfer of all of the Capital Stock of the Company held by Holdings to any Successor Holding   Company pursuant to Section 1410.   Section 904. Revocation and Effect of Consents. Until an amendment,   supplement or waiver becomes effective, a consent to it by a Holder is a continuing consent by   the Holder and every subsequent Holder of that Note or any Note that evidences all or any part of   the same debt as the consenting Holder’s Note, even if notation of the consent is not made on   any Note. Subject to the following paragraph of this Section 904, any such Holder or subsequent   Holder may revoke the consent as to such Holder’s Note by written notice to the Trustee or the   Company, received by the Trustee or the Company, as the case may be, before the date on which   the Trustee receives an Officer’s Certificate from the Company certifying that the Holders of the   requisite principal amount of Notes have consented (and not theretofore revoked such consent) to   the amendment, supplement or waiver. The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, fix a   record date for the purpose of determining the Holders entitled to consent to any amendment,   supplement or waiver as set forth in Section 108.   Subject to Section 907(b), after an amendment, supplement or waiver becomes   effective, it shall bind every Holder of Notes.   Section 905. [Reserved].   Section 906. Notation on or Exchange of Notes. If an amendment, supplement   or waiver changes the terms of a Note, the Trustee shall (if required by the Company and in   accordance with the specific direction of the Company) request the Holder of the Note to deliver   it to the Trustee. The Trustee shall (if required by the Company and in accordance with the   specific direction of the Company) place an appropriate notation on the Note about the changed   terms and return it to the Holder. Alternatively, if the Company or the Trustee so determines, the   Company in exchange for the Note shall issue and the Trustee shall authenticate a new Note that   reflects the changed terms. Failure to make the appropriate notation or issue a new Note shall   not affect the validity and effect of such amendment, supplement or waiver.   Section 907. Net Short Holders. (a) Each amendment, supplement, waiver or   modification of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note Security Documents or the Intercreditor   Agreements, as well as any other request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or   waiver under this Indenture, shall be binding and effective as to each Net Short Holder. By   acceptance of a beneficial ownership interest in the Notes, each Notes Beneficial Owner shall be   deemed to have agreed to not take any action, whether consenting, affirmatively not consenting   or otherwise, for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Indenture, the   Notes, the Note Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or otherwise give any   request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Indenture, if it is a   Net Short Holder (in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Company). In connection with   any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Indenture, the Notes, the Note     
 
  154      Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or any other request, demand,   authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Indenture, each Notes Beneficial   Owner shall promptly notify the Trustee and the Company in writing that it is a Net Short   Holder, or shall otherwise be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Company and the   Trustee that it is not a Net Short Holder; provided that if such action relates to a Default or Event   of Default, such representation or deemed representation shall be deemed repeated at all times   until the resulting Default or Event of Default is cured or ceases to exist or the Notes hereunder   are accelerated. In connection with, and as a condition to, taking any action requiring the consent   of, or the giving of any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver by,   the Holders of the requisite principal amount of Notes, each Notes Beneficial Owner taking such   action shall (A) certify to the Trustee and the Company that it is not a Net Short Holder (in each   case unless otherwise agreed to by the Company) and (B) covenant to provide the Company with   such other information as the Company may reasonably request from time to time in order to   verify the accuracy of such Net Beneficial Owner’s representation or warranty, deemed   representation or warranty or certification with respect to not being a Net Short Holder, within   five Business Days of request thereof (the “Net Short Holder Verification Covenant”).   Notwithstanding the foregoing, these provisions shall in no way limit the right of any Notes   Beneficial Owner or Holder to institute suit for the enforcement of payment of principal and   interest of any Note of such Holder on or after the final maturity date for such principal or   scheduled interest payment dates for such interest expressed in such Note. If any Notes   Beneficial Owner has made an incorrect representation or warranty, deemed representation or   warranty or certification with respect to not being a Net Short Holder, or has otherwise breached   its covenant to not take any action, whether consenting, affirmatively not consenting or   otherwise, for any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Indenture, the Notes,   the Note Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or otherwise give any request,   demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Indenture, if it is a Net   Short Holder (in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Company), the Company shall have   the right at the sole expense of any such Person to cause such Person to (and such Person shall be   obligated to) transfer any or all of its Notes to one or more transferees (which may, at the   Company’s sole option, be or include any Parent, the Company or any Subsidiary); provided that   (1) the Trustee shall not have any obligation to the Company or to such Notes Beneficial Owner   to find such a transferee, (2) the Company shall not have any obligation to such Notes Beneficial   Owner to find such a transferee or accept or consent to any such transfer to itself or any other   Person and (3) the transferee (or, at its option, the Company) shall pay to such Notes Beneficial   Owner concurrently with such transfer an amount (which payment shall be deemed payment in   full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal amount of the Notes so assigned and (y) the most   recently available quoted price for such Notes (as determined by the Company in good faith,   which determination shall be conclusive), in each case without interest thereon. The rights and   remedies of the Company provided herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other   rights and remedies provided to the Company at law or in equity, and the Company shall be   entitled to pursue any remedy available to it against any Net Short Holder (or any Notes   Beneficial Owner that the Company in good faith believes is a Net Short Holder). In no event   shall the Trustee have any liability or obligation to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether   any Person is a Net Short Holder and/or whether such Net Short Holder has delivered any related     
  155      certifications under this Indenture or in connection with the Notes. It is understood and agreed   that the Company and the Trustee shall be entitled to rely on each representation, deemed   representation and certification made by, and covenant of, each Notes Beneficial Owner   provided for in this paragraph. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Indenture, the Notes   or any other document, the provisions of this paragraph shall apply and survive with respect to   each Notes Beneficial Owner notwithstanding that any such Person may have ceased to be a   Notes Beneficial Owner, this Indenture may have been terminated or the Notes may have been   redeemed in full.   (b) If, in connection with the giving of a request, demand, authorization,   notice, consent or waiver relating to a Default or Event of Default (each, a “Default Direction”),   but prior to the acceleration of the Notes, the Company determines in good faith that there is a   reasonable basis to believe a Notes Beneficial Owner that took such action made an incorrect   representation or warranty, deemed representation or warranty or certification with respect to not   being a Net Short Holder, or otherwise at any relevant time on or following such action was a   Net Short Holder (a “Net Short Holder Default Breach”), the Company delivers an Officer’s   Certificate to the Trustee certifying that (i) the Company believes in good faith that there is a   reasonable basis to believe a Notes Beneficial Owner that gave a Default Direction (x) made an   incorrect representation or warranty, deemed representation or warranty or certification with   respect to not being a Net Short Holder, or otherwise at any relevant time on or following such   action was a Net Short Holder or (y) breached the Net Short Holder Verification Covenant and   (ii) the Company and/or one of its Affiliates has filed papers with a court of competent   jurisdiction seeking a determination that such Notes Beneficial Owner made an incorrect   representation or warranty, deemed representation or warranty or certification with respect to not   being a Net Short Holder, or otherwise at any relevant time on or following such action was a   Net Short Holder or breached the Net Short Holder Verification Covenant, and seeking to   invalidate any Default or Event of Default that resulted from such action, the cure period with   respect to such Default or Event of Default shall be automatically stayed pending a final and   non-appealable determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If such   Officer’s Certificate has been delivered to the Trustee, the Trustee shall refrain from acting in   accordance with any such Default Direction until such time as the Company provides to the   Trustee an Officer’s Certificate stating that such Notes Beneficial Owner has satisfied its Net   Short Holder Verification Covenant. If such Notes Beneficial Owner has satisfied its Net Short   Holder Verification Covenant, then the Trustee shall be permitted to act in accordance with such   Default Direction.   (c) If any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Indenture,   the Notes, the Note Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, or any other request,   demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver under this Indenture, is effected in   violation of Section 907(b) (including, without limitation, as a result of such amendment,   supplement, waiver or modification having been consented to by a Net Short Holder or such   other request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver having been given by a   Net Short Holder), and assuming all Net Short Holders complied with Section 907(b) and Notes   owned by all Net Short Holders were disregarded and deemed not to be Outstanding (in each     
 
  156      case unless otherwise agreed to by the Company), (1) if such amendment, supplement, waiver or   modification, or such other request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver,   shall have received the requisite percentage of Holders under this Indenture, the Notes, the Note   Security Documents or the Intercreditor Agreements, without taking into account any action,   whether consenting, affirmatively not consenting or otherwise, of any Net Short Holder (in each   case unless otherwise agreed to by the Company), then such amendment, supplement, waiver or   modification, or such other request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver   shall nonetheless be binding and effective, and shall not be null or void, as to each Holder and   (2) in all other cases, such amendment, supplement, waiver or modification, or such other   request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or waiver shall be null and void (in   each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Company).   ARTICLE X      REDEMPTION OF NOTES   Section 1001. Applicability of Article. Notes of or within any series that are   redeemable in whole or in part before their Stated Maturity shall be redeemable in accordance   with their terms and (except as otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable   Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 301) in accordance with this   Article X.   Section 1002. [Reserved].   Section 1003. Election to Redeem; Notice to Trustee. In case of any redemption   at the election of the Company of less than all of the Notes of any series, the Company shall, at   least two Business Days (but not more than 60 days (except that such notice may be delivered   more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the Redemption Date is delayed as provided   in Section 6 of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture)), prior to the date on which notice   is required to be sent or caused to be sent to Holders pursuant to Section 1005, notify the Trustee   of such Redemption Date and of the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed, but failure to so   notify the Trustee shall not invalidate any notice given in accordance with Section 1005 and shall   not constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Company.   Section 1004. Selection by Trustee of Notes to Be Redeemed. Unless otherwise   specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as   contemplated by Section 301, in the case of any partial redemption, selection of the Notes for   redemption will be made by the Trustee not more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date   (except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date if the   Redemption Date is delayed as provided in Section 6 of the applicable Notes Supplemental   Indenture) on a pro rata basis, by lot or by such other method as the Trustee in its sole discretion   shall deem to be fair and appropriate, in integral multiples of $1,000, although no Note of the   Minimum Denomination in original principal amount or less will be redeemed in part.     
  157      The Trustee shall promptly notify the Company in writing of the Notes selected   for redemption and, in the case of any Note selected for partial redemption, the principal amount   thereof to be redeemed. On and after the Redemption Date, interest will cease to accrue on   Notes or portions thereof called for redemption.   For all purposes of this Indenture, unless the context otherwise requires, all   provisions relating to the redemption of Notes shall relate, in the case of any Note redeemed or to   be redeemed only in part, to the portion of the principal amount of such Note that has been or is   to be redeemed.   Section 1005. Notice of Redemption. Subject to the final paragraph of   Section 110, unless otherwise specified for Notes of any series in the applicable Notes   Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section 301, notice of redemption or purchase as   provided in Section 1001 shall be given electronically or, at the Company’s option, by first-class   mail, postage prepaid, mailed not less than 10 nor more than 60 days prior to the Redemption   Date (except that such notice may be delivered more than 60 days prior to the Redemption Date   if such notice is issued in connection with the defeasance of Notes pursuant to Section 1201 or a   satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section 1101 or of such Notes pursuant to   Section 1102, or if the Redemption Date is delayed as provided in Section 6 of the applicable   Notes Supplemental Indenture), to each Holder of Notes to be redeemed, at such Holder’s   address appearing in the Note Register.   Any such notice shall state:   (1) the expected Redemption Date,   (2) the redemption price (or the formula by which the redemption price will   be determined),   (3) if less than all Outstanding Notes are to be redeemed, the identification   (and, in the case of partial redemption, the portion of the respective principal amounts) of   the Notes to be redeemed,   (4) that, on the Redemption Date, the redemption price will become due and   payable upon each such Note, and that, unless the Company defaults in making such   redemption payment or the Paying Agent is prohibited from making such payment   pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, interest thereon shall cease to accrue from and   after said date, and   (5) the place where such Notes are to be surrendered for payment of the   redemption price.   In addition, if such redemption, purchase or notice is subject to satisfaction (or, waiver by the   Company in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent, as permitted by Section 6 of   the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, such notice shall describe each such condition, and     
 
  158      if applicable, shall state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed   until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its   sole discretion), or such redemption or purchase may not occur and such notice may be rescinded   in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been (or, in the Company’s sole   determination, may not be) satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the   Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date as so delayed.   The Company may provide in such notice that payment of the redemption price   and the performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be   performed by another Person.   Notice of such redemption or purchase of Notes to be so redeemed or purchased   at the election of the Company shall be given by the Company or, at the Company’s request   (made to the Trustee at least 15 days (or such shorter period as shall be reasonably satisfactory to   the Trustee) prior to the Redemption Date), by the Trustee in the name and at the expense of the   Company. Any such request will set forth the information to be stated in such notice, as   provided by this Section 1005.   The notice if mailed in the manner herein provided shall be conclusively   presumed to have been given, whether or not the Holder receives such notice. In any case,   failure to give such notice by mail or any defect in the notice to the Holder of any Note   designated for redemption as a whole or in part shall not affect the validity of the proceedings for   the redemption of any other Note.   Section 1006. Deposit of Redemption Price. Unless otherwise specified for   Notes of any series in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, as contemplated by Section   301, on or prior to 12:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Redemption Date, the Company   shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Trustee or with a Paying Agent (or, if the   Company is acting as its own Paying Agent, the Company shall segregate and hold in trust as   provided in Section 403) an amount of money sufficient to pay the redemption price of, and any   accrued and unpaid interest on, all the Notes or portions thereof which are to be redeemed on that   date.   Section 1007. Notes Payable on Redemption Date. Notice of redemption having   been given as provided in this Article X or in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, the   Notes so to be redeemed shall, on the Redemption Date, become due and payable at the   redemption price specified herein or in the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture and from   and after such date (unless the Company shall default in the payment of the redemption price or   the Paying Agent is prohibited from paying the redemption price pursuant to the terms of this   Indenture) such Notes shall cease to bear interest. Upon surrender of such Notes for redemption   in accordance with such notice, such Notes shall be paid by or on behalf of the Company at the   redemption price. Installments of interest whose Interest Payment Date is on or prior to the   Redemption Date shall be payable to the Holders of such Notes registered as such on the relevant   Regular Record Dates according to their terms and the provisions of Section 307.     
  159      On and after any Redemption Date, if money sufficient to pay the redemption   price of and any accrued and unpaid interest on Notes called for redemption shall have been   made available in accordance with Section 1006, the Notes (or the portions thereof) called for   redemption will cease to accrue interest and the only right of the Holders of such Notes (or   portions thereof) will be to receive payment of the redemption price of and, subject to the last   sentence of the preceding paragraph, any accrued and unpaid interest on such Notes (or portions   thereof) to but not including the Redemption Date. If any Note (or portion thereof) called for   redemption shall not be so paid upon surrender thereof for redemption, the principal (and   premium, if any) shall, until paid, bear interest from the Redemption Date at the rate borne by the   Note (or portion thereof).   Section 1008. Notes Redeemed in Part. Any Note that is to be redeemed only in   part shall be surrendered at the Place of Payment (with due endorsement by, or a written   instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company duly executed by, the Holder thereof   or its attorney duly authorized in writing) and the Company shall execute and (upon receipt of an   Authentication Order) the Trustee shall authenticate and deliver to the Holder of such Note   without service charge, a new Note or Notes, of any authorized denomination as requested by   such Holder in aggregate principal amount equal to and in exchange for the unredeemed portion   of the principal of the Note so surrendered (or if the Note is a global note, an adjustment shall be   made to the schedule attached thereto).   ARTICLE XI      SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE   Section 1101.

The Company’s Option to Effect Defeasance or Covenant   Defeasance. The Company may, at its option, at any time, elect to have terminated the   obligations of the Company with respect to Outstanding Notes and to have terminated all of the   obligations of (i) Holdings with respect to its Parent Guarantee and (ii) the Subsidiary Guarantors   with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantees, to have released any and all Liens on the Collateral   securing the Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and to have terminated the Note Security   Documents in each case, as set forth in this Article XII, and elect to have either Section 1202 or   Section 1203 be applied to all of the Outstanding Notes (the “Defeased Notes”), upon   compliance with the conditions set forth below in Section 1204. Either Section 1202 or Section   1203 may be applied to the Defeased Notes to any Redemption Date or the Stated Maturity of   the Notes.   Section 1202. Defeasance and Discharge. Upon the Company’s exercise under   Section 1201 of the option applicable to this Section 1202, the Company shall be deemed to have   been released and discharged from its obligations with respect to the Defeased Notes, Holdings   shall be deemed to have been released and discharged from its obligations with respect to the     
  163      Parent Guarantee, and the Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have been released and   discharged from their obligations with respect to the Subsidiary Guarantees and the Company   and the Guarantors shall have released any and all Liens on the Collateral securing the   Indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and to have terminated the Note Security Documents on the   date the relevant conditions set forth in Section 1204 are satisfied (hereinafter, “Defeasance”).   For this purpose, such Defeasance means that the Company shall be deemed to have paid and   discharged the entire Indebtedness represented by the Defeased Notes, which shall thereafter be   deemed to be “Outstanding” only for the purposes of Section 1205 and the other Sections of this   Indenture referred to in clauses (a) and (b) below, and the Company, Holdings and each of the   Subsidiary Guarantors shall be deemed to have satisfied all other obligations under such Notes,   the Parent Guarantee, the Subsidiary Guarantees and this Indenture insofar as such Notes are   concerned (and the Trustee, at the expense of the Company, shall execute proper instruments   acknowledging the same), except for the following, which shall survive until otherwise   terminated or discharged hereunder: (a) the rights of Holders of Defeased Notes to receive,   solely from the trust fund described in Section 1204 and as more fully set forth in such Section,   payments in respect of principal of and premium, if any, and interest on such Notes when such   payments are due, (b) the Company’s obligations with respect to such Defeased Notes under   Sections 304, 305, 306, 402 and 403, (c) the rights, powers, trusts, duties and immunities of the   Trustee hereunder, including the Trustee’s rights (and the Company’s obligations) under   Section 707, and (d) this Article XII. If the Company exercises its option under this   Section 1202, payment of the Notes may not be accelerated because of an Event of Default with   respect thereto. Subject to compliance with this Article XII, the Company may, at its option and   at any time, exercise its option under this Section 1202 notwithstanding the prior exercise of its   option under Section 1203 with respect to the Notes.   Section 1203. Covenant Defeasance. Upon the Company’s exercise under   Section 1201 of the option applicable to this Section 1203, (a) the Company and the Guarantors   shall be released from their respective obligations under any covenant or provision contained in   Section 405, Sections 407 through 415 and Section 1503, and the provisions of clauses (iii),   (iv) and (v) and the second paragraph of Section 501(a) shall not apply, and (b) the occurrence of   any event specified in clause (iv), (v) (with respect to Section 405, Sections 407 through 415,   inclusive, and Section 1503), (vi), (vii), (viii) (with respect to Subsidiaries), (ix) (with respect to   Subsidiaries), (x), (xi) or (xii) of Section 601 shall be deemed not to be or result in an Event of   Default, in each case with respect to the Defeased Notes on and after the date the conditions set   forth below are satisfied (hereinafter, “Covenant Defeasance”), and the Notes shall thereafter be   deemed not to be “Outstanding” for the purposes of any direction, waiver, consent or declaration   or Act of Holders (and the consequences of any thereof) in connection with such covenants or   provisions, but shall continue to be deemed “Outstanding” for all other purposes hereunder. For   this purpose, such Covenant Defeasance means that, with respect to the Outstanding Notes, the   Company and the Guarantors may omit to comply with and shall have no liability in respect of   any term, condition or limitation set forth in any such covenant or provision, whether directly or   indirectly, by reason of any reference elsewhere herein to any such covenant or provision or by   reason of any reference in any such covenant or provision to any other provision herein or in any   other document and such omission to comply shall not constitute a Default or an Event of     
 
  164      Default under Section 601, but, except as specified above, the remainder of this Indenture and   such Outstanding Notes shall be unaffected thereby.   Section 1204. Conditions to Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. The following   shall be the conditions to application of either Section 1202 or Section 1203 to the Outstanding   Notes:   (1) The Company shall have irrevocably deposited or caused to be deposited   with the Trustee, in trust, money or U.S. Government Obligations, or a combination   thereof, in amounts as will be sufficient (without reinvestment), to pay and discharge the   principal of, and premium, if any, and interest on the Defeased Notes issued by the   Company to the Stated Maturity or relevant Redemption Date in accordance with the   terms of this Indenture and the Notes (provided that if such redemption is made pursuant   to Section 6(d) of the applicable Notes Supplemental Indenture, (x) the amount of money   or U.S. Government Obligations or a combination thereof that the Company must   irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited shall be determined using an assumed   Applicable Premium calculated as of the date of such deposit, as calculated by the   Company in good faith (which calculation shall be conclusive) and (y) the Company   must irrevocably deposit or cause to be deposited additional money in trust on or prior to   the Redemption Date, as required by Section 1006, as necessary to pay the Applicable   Premium as determined on such Redemption Date);   (2) No Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing on   the date of such deposit;   (3) Such deposit shall not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a   Default or Event of Default under, this Indenture or any other material agreement or   instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound;   (4) In the case of an election under Section 1202, the Company shall have   delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from Debevoise & Plimpton LLP or other   counsel in the United States to the effect that (x) the Company has received from, or there   has been published by, the Internal Revenue Service a ruling or (y) since the Issue Date,   there has been a change in the applicable Federal income tax law, in either case to the   effect that, and based thereon such opinion shall confirm to the effect that, the Holders of   the Outstanding Notes will not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax   purposes as a result of such Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the   same amounts, in the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if   such Defeasance had not occurred; provided that such Opinion of Counsel need not be   delivered if all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Notes that   have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as provided in   Section 306, and (ii) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in   trust or segregated and held in trust by the Company and thereafter repaid to the   Company or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 403) not theretofore   delivered to the Trustee for cancellation have become due and payable, will become due     
  165      and payable at their Stated Maturity within one year, or have been called for redemption   or are to be called for redemption within one year under arrangements reasonably   satisfactory to the Trustee for the giving of notice of redemption by the Trustee in the   name, and at the expense, of the Company;   (5) In the case of an election under Section 1203, the Company shall have   delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel from Debevoise & Plimpton LLP or other   counsel in the United States to the effect that the Holders of the Outstanding Notes will   not recognize income, gain or loss for Federal income tax purposes as a result of such   Covenant Defeasance and will be subject to Federal income tax on the same amounts, in   the same manner and at the same times as would have been the case if such Covenant   Defeasance had not occurred; and   (6) The Company shall have delivered to the Trustee an Officer’s Certificate   and an Opinion of Counsel from Debevoise & Plimpton LLP or other counsel in the   United States, each to the effect that all conditions precedent provided for in this   Section 1204 relating to either the Defeasance under Section 1202 or the Covenant   Defeasance under Section 1203, as the case may be, have been complied with. In   rendering such Opinion of Counsel, counsel may rely on an Officer’s Certificate as to   compliance with the foregoing clauses (1), (2) and (3) of this Section 1204 or as to any   matters of fact.   Section 1205. Deposited Money and U.S. Government Obligations to Be Held in   Trust; Other Miscellaneous Provisions. Subject to the provisions of the last paragraph of   Section 403, all money and U.S. Government Obligations (including the proceeds thereof)   deposited with the Trustee (or such other Person that would qualify to act as successor trustee   under Article VII, collectively and solely for purposes of this Section 1205, the “Trustee”)   pursuant to Section 1204 in respect of the Defeased Notes shall be held in trust and applied by   the Trustee, in accordance with the provisions of such Notes and this Indenture, to the payment,   either directly or through any Paying Agent as the Trustee may determine, to the Holders of such   Notes of all sums due and to become due thereon in respect of principal, premium, if any, and   interest, but such money need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required   by law.   The Company shall pay and indemnify the Trustee and its agents and hold them   harmless against any tax, fee or other charge imposed on or assessed against the U.S.   Government Obligations deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 1204, or the principal,   premium, if any, and interest received in respect thereof, other than any such tax, fee or other   charge that by law is for the account of the Holders of the Defeased Notes.   Anything in this Article XII to the contrary notwithstanding, the Trustee shall   deliver to the Company from time to time, upon Company Request, any money or U.S.   Government Obligations held by it as provided in Section 1204 that, in the opinion of a   nationally recognized accounting or investment banking firm expressed in a written certification   thereof to the Trustee, are in excess of the amount thereof that would then be required to be     
 
  166      deposited to effect an equivalent Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Subject to Article VII,   the Trustee shall not incur any liability to any Person by relying on such opinion.   Section 1206. Reinstatement. If the Trustee or Paying Agent is unable to apply   any money or U.S. Government Obligations in accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the   case may be, by reason of any order or judgment of any court or governmental authority   enjoining, restraining or otherwise prohibiting such application, then the obligations of the   Company, Holdings and the Subsidiary Guarantors under this Indenture, the Notes, the Parent   Guarantee and the Subsidiary Guarantees shall be revived and reinstated as though no deposit   had occurred pursuant to Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be, until such time as the Trustee   or Paying Agent is permitted to apply all such money and U.S. Government Obligations in   accordance with Section 1202 or 1203, as the case may be; provided, however, that if the   Company, Holdings or any Subsidiary Guarantor makes any payment of principal, premium, if   any, or interest on any Note following the reinstatement of its obligations, the Company,   Holdings or Subsidiary Guarantor, as the case may be, shall be subrogated to the rights of the   Holders of such Notes to receive such payment from the money and U.S. Government   Obligations held by the Trustee or Paying Agent.   Section 1207. Repayments to the Company. The Trustee shall pay to the   Company upon Company Request any money held by it for the payment of principal or interest   that remains unclaimed for two years after the Stated Maturity or the Redemption Date, as the   case may be. After payment to the Company, Holders entitled to money must look to the   Company for payment as general creditors unless an applicable abandoned property law   designates another Person and all liability of the Trustee or Paying Agent with respect to such   money shall thereupon cease.   ARTICLE XIII      SUBSIDIARY GUARANTEES   Section 1301. Guarantees Generally.   (a) Guarantee of Each Subsidiary Guarantor. Each Subsidiary Guarantor, as   primary obligor and not merely as surety, hereby jointly and severally, irrevocably and fully   and unconditionally Guarantees, on a senior secured basis, the punctual payment when due,   whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all monetary obligations of the   Company under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for principal of or interest on the Notes,   expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by such Subsidiary   Guarantors being herein called the “Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations”).   The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor will be limited to the maximum   amount as will, after giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of such Subsidiary   Guarantor (including, but not limited to, any Guarantee by it of any Credit Facility Indebtedness)   and after giving effect to any collections from or payments made by or on behalf of any other   Subsidiary Guarantor in respect of the obligations of such other Subsidiary Guarantor under its     
  167      Subsidiary Guarantee or pursuant to its contribution obligations under this Indenture, result in the   obligations of such Subsidiary Guarantor under the Subsidiary Guarantee not constituting a   fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under applicable law, or being void or   unenforceable under any law relating to insolvency of debtors.   (b) Further Agreements of Each Subsidiary Guarantor. (i) Each Subsidiary   Guarantor hereby agrees that (to the fullest extent permitted by law) its obligations hereunder   shall be unconditional, irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Indenture,   the Notes or the obligations of the Company or any other Subsidiary Guarantor to the Holders   or the Trustee hereunder or thereunder, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any   waiver or consent by any Holder with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release   of any other Subsidiary Guarantor, the recovery of any judgment against the Company, any   action to enforce the same, whether or not a notation concerning its Subsidiary Guarantee is   made on any particular Note, or any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a legal   or equitable discharge or defense of a Subsidiary Guarantor.   (ii) Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted   by law) the benefit of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court   in the event of insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first   against the Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that (except as   otherwise provided in Section 1303) its Subsidiary Guarantee will not be discharged except by   complete performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Security   Documents and this Subsidiary Guarantee. Such Subsidiary Guarantee is a guarantee of payment   and not of collection. Each Subsidiary Guarantor further agrees (to the fullest extent permitted   by law) that, as between it, on the one hand, and the Holders of Notes and the Trustee, on the   other hand, subject to this Article XIII, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed by its   Subsidiary Guarantee may be accelerated as and to the extent provided in Article VI for the   purposes of such Subsidiary Guarantee, notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition   preventing such acceleration in respect of the obligations guaranteed by such Subsidiary   Guarantee, and (2) in the event of any acceleration of such obligations as provided in Article VI,   such obligations (whether or not due and payable) shall forthwith become due and payable by   such Subsidiary Guarantor in accordance with the terms of this Section 1301 for the purpose of   such Subsidiary Guarantee. Neither the Trustee nor any other Person shall have any obligation   to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or to take any other steps under any security for the   Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations or against the Company or any other Person or any property   of the Company or any other Person before the Trustee is entitled to demand payment and   performance by any or all Subsidiary Guarantors of their obligations under their respective   Subsidiary Guarantees or under this Indenture.   (iii) Until terminated in accordance with Section 1303, each Subsidiary   Guarantee shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be   filed by or against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become   insolvent or make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be   appointed for all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent     
 
  168      permitted by law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time   payment and performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in   amount, or must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on such Notes, whether as a   “voidable preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or   performance had not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded,   reduced, restored or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated   and deemed reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or   returned.   (c) Each Subsidiary Guarantor that makes a payment or distribution under its   Subsidiary Guarantee shall have the right to seek contribution from the Company or any   non-paying Subsidiary Guarantor that has also Guaranteed the relevant Subsidiary Guaranteed   Obligations in respect of which such payment or distribution is made, so long as the exercise of   such right does not impair the rights of the Holders under the Subsidiary Guarantees.   (d) Each Subsidiary Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and   indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its   Subsidiary Guarantee, and the waiver set forth in Section 1305, are knowingly made in   contemplation of such benefits.   (e) Each Subsidiary Guarantor, pursuant to its Subsidiary Guarantee, also   hereby agrees to pay any and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable   counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent or the Holders in   enforcing any rights under its Subsidiary Guarantee.   Section 1302. Continuing Guarantees. (a) Each Subsidiary Guarantee shall be a   continuing Guarantee and shall (i) subject to Section 1303, remain in full force and effect until   payment in full of the principal amount of all Outstanding Notes (whether by payment at   maturity, purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance, retirement or other acquisition) and all   other Subsidiary Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing unless earlier terminated as   described below, (ii) be binding upon such Subsidiary Guarantor and (iii) inure to the benefit of   and be enforceable by the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent, the Holders and their permitted   successors, transferees and assigns.   (b) The obligations of each Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder shall continue to   be effective or shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment which would   otherwise have reduced or terminated the obligations of any Subsidiary Guarantor hereunder   and under its Subsidiary Guarantee (whether such payment shall have been made by or on   behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf of a Subsidiary Guarantor) is rescinded or reclaimed   from any of the Holders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation or reorganization of the   Company, or any Subsidiary Guarantor or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been   made.   Section 1303. Release of Subsidiary Guarantees. Notwithstanding the provisions   of Section 1302, Subsidiary Guarantees will be subject to termination and discharge under the     
  169      circumstances described in this Section 1303. Any Subsidiary Guarantor will automatically and   unconditionally be released from all obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee, and such   Subsidiary Guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or   effect, (i) concurrently with any direct or indirect sale or disposition (by merger or otherwise) of   any Subsidiary Guarantor or any interest therein, or any other transaction, in accordance with the   terms of this Indenture (including Section 411 and Section 501), following which such   Subsidiary Guarantor is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary of the Company, (ii) at any time that   such Subsidiary Guarantor is (or, substantially concurrently with the release of the Subsidiary   Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor or if as a result of the release of the Subsidiary   Guarantee of such Subsidiary Guarantor, will be) released from all of its obligations under its   Guarantee of payment by the Company and all other Subsidiary Guarantors of any Indebtedness   of the Company and such other Subsidiary Guarantors under the Senior Credit Facilities   (including by reason of ceasing to be a borrower under the Senior ABL Facility (other than a   release in connection with a Discharge of all of the Obligations under the Senior Credit   Facilities) (it being understood that a release subject to contingent reinstatement is still a release,   and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, such Subsidiary Guarantee shall be reinstated to   the extent that such Subsidiary Guarantor would then be required to provide a Subsidiary   Guarantee pursuant to Section 414), (iii) upon the merger or consolidation of any Subsidiary   Guarantor with and into the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor that is the surviving   Person in such merger or consolidation, or upon the liquidation of such Subsidiary Guarantor   following the transfer of all of its assets to any of the Company and the other Subsidiary   Guarantors, (iv) concurrently with any Subsidiary Guarantor becoming an Unrestricted   Subsidiary or ceasing to constitute a Wholly Owned Domestic Subsidiary of the Company,   (v) during the Suspension Period (it being understood that upon the occurrence of a Reversion   Time, such Subsidiary Guarantee shall be reinstated to the extent that such Subsidiary would   then be required to provide a Subsidiary Guarantee pursuant to Section 414), upon the merger or   consolidation of any Subsidiary Guarantor with and into another Subsidiary that is not a   Subsidiary Guarantor with such other Subsidiary being the surviving Person in such merger or   consolidation, or upon liquidation of such Subsidiary Guarantor following the transfer of all of   its assets to a Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor, (vi) upon Defeasance or Covenant   Defeasance of the Company’s obligations, or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture   pursuant to Section 1101, or (vii) subject to Section 1302(b), upon payment in full of the   aggregate principal amount of all Notes then Outstanding and all other Subsidiary Guaranteed   Obligations then due and owing. In addition, the Company will have the right, upon 10 days’   notice to the Trustee (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Trustee), to cause any Subsidiary   Guarantor that has not guaranteed payment by the Company or another Subsidiary Guarantor of   any Indebtedness of the Company or such other Subsidiary Guarantor under the Senior Credit   Facilities to be unconditionally released from all obligations under its Subsidiary Guarantee, and   such Subsidiary Guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or   effect.   Upon any such occurrence specified in this Section 1303, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an   Officer’s Certificate, at the Company’s expense, execute any documents reasonably requested by   the Company in order to evidence such release, discharge and termination in respect of the     
 
  170      applicable Subsidiary Guarantee. The Company shall deliver notice to the Trustee and the Note   Collateral Agent of any release or termination contemplated under this Section 1303, but failure   to so notify the Trustee or the Note Collateral Agent shall not invalidate such release or   termination or constitute a Default or Event of Default by the Company.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder expressly and irrevocably agrees that it will not   hinder, or direct the Trustee to take any action that will hinder, the automatic release of any   Subsidiary Guarantee provided for by this Section 1303 to the extent the Company determines in   good faith that the applicable transaction is permitted under this Indenture (including, without   limitation, in connection with any disposition to Persons other than the Company or a Subsidiary   Guarantor permitted under this Indenture), and each Holder expressly and irrevocably agrees that   the Trustee shall be authorized to, and shall, take any necessary action to release any such   Subsidiary Guarantee to the extent authorized to do so by this Section 1303 without any   obligation or requirement to notify or obtain consent from any Holder (and the Trustee shall not   condition any such actions on providing notice to, or obtaining consent from, the Holders).   Section 1304. [Reserved].   Section 1305. Waiver of Subrogation. Each Subsidiary Guarantor hereby   irrevocably waives any claim or other rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against the   Company that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of the Company’s   obligations under the Notes and this Indenture or such Subsidiary Guarantor’s obligations under   its Subsidiary Guarantee and this Indenture, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement,   exoneration, indemnification, and any right to participate in any claim or remedy of any Holder   of Notes against the Company, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or   under contract, statute or common law, until this Indenture is discharged and all of the Notes are   discharged and paid in full. If any amount shall be paid to any Subsidiary Guarantor in violation   of the preceding sentence and the Notes shall not have been paid in full, such amount shall be   deemed to have been paid to such Subsidiary Guarantor for the benefit of, and held in trust for   the benefit of, the Holders of the Notes, and shall forthwith be paid to the Trustee for the benefit   of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Notes, whether matured or unmatured, in   accordance with the terms of this Indenture.   Section 1306. Notation Not Required. Neither the Company nor any Subsidiary   Guarantor shall be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect any Subsidiary Guarantee   or any release, termination or discharge thereof.   Section 1307. Successors and Assigns of Subsidiary Guarantors. All covenants   and agreements in this Indenture by each Subsidiary Guarantor shall bind its respective   successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not.   Section 1308. Execution and Delivery of Subsidiary Guarantees. The Company   shall cause each Restricted Subsidiary that is required to become a Subsidiary Guarantor   pursuant to Section 414, and each Subsidiary of the Company that the Company causes to   become a Subsidiary Guarantor pursuant to Section 414, to promptly execute and deliver to the     
  171      Trustee a Guarantor Supplemental Indenture, or a supplemental indenture otherwise in form   reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, evidencing its Subsidiary Guarantee on substantially the   terms set forth in this Article XIII.   Section 1309. Notices. Notice to any Subsidiary Guarantor shall be sufficient if   addressed to such Subsidiary Guarantor care of the Company at the address, place and manner   provided in Section 109.   ARTICLE XIV      PARENT GUARANTEE   Section 1401. Guarantees Generally.   (a) Guarantee of Parent Guarantor. Subject to Section 1408, Holdings, as   primary obligor and not merely as surety, hereby irrevocably and fully and unconditionally   Guarantees (the “Parent Guarantee”), on a senior secured basis, the punctual payment when due,   whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all monetary obligations of the   Company under this Indenture and the Notes, whether for principal of or interest on the Notes,   expenses, indemnification or otherwise (all such obligations guaranteed by Holdings being   herein called the “Parent Guaranteed Obligations”).   The obligations of Holdings will be limited to the maximum amount as will, after   giving effect to all other contingent and fixed liabilities of Holdings (including, but not limited   to, any Guarantee by it of any Credit Facility Indebtedness), result in the obligations of Holdings   under the Parent Guarantee not constituting a fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer under   applicable law, or being void or unenforceable under any law relating to insolvency of debtors.   Notwithstanding anything in this Indenture or any Note Security Document to the   contrary, including Section 1401(b)(iii) hereof, (i) the obligations of Holdings under this   Indenture and the Note Security Documents, including in respect of the Parent Guaranteed   Obligations, are expressly limited recourse obligations of Holdings, and such obligations shall be   payable solely from, limited to, and shall in no event exceed, the Capital Stock of the Company   pledged by Holdings under the Note Security Documents, and (ii) upon the collection, sale or   disposition of, or other realization upon, the Capital Stock of the Company pledged by Holdings   by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Holders or the Note Collateral Agent, the obligations of   Holdings under this Indenture and the Note Security Documents, including in respect of the   Parent Guaranteed Obligations, shall be irrevocably and indefeasibly terminated and shall not be   subject to reinstatement under any circumstance.   (b) Further Agreements of Parent Guarantor. (i) Holdings hereby agrees that   (to the fullest extent permitted by law) its obligations hereunder shall be unconditional,   irrespective of the validity, regularity or enforceability of this Indenture, the Notes or the   obligations of the Company or any other Guarantor to the Holders or the Trustee hereunder or   thereunder, the absence of any action to enforce the same, any waiver or consent by any Holder     
 
  172      with respect to any provisions hereof or thereof, any release of any other Guarantor, the recovery   of any judgment against the Company, any action to enforce the same, whether or not a notation   concerning the Parent Guarantee is made on any particular Note, or any other circumstance that   might otherwise constitute a legal or equitable discharge or defense of Holdings.   (ii) Holdings hereby waives (to the fullest extent permitted by law) the benefit   of diligence, presentment, demand of payment, filing of claims with a court in the event of   insolvency or bankruptcy of the Company, any right to require a proceeding first against the   Company, protest, notice and all demands whatsoever and covenants that (except as otherwise   provided in Section 1403) its Parent Guarantee will not be discharged except by complete   performance of the obligations contained in the Notes, this Indenture, the Note Security   Documents and this Parent Guarantee. The Parent Guarantee is a guarantee of payment and not   of collection. Holdings further agrees (to the fullest extent permitted by law) that, as between it,   on the one hand, and the Holders of Notes and the Trustee, on the other hand, subject to this   Article XIV, (1) the maturity of the obligations guaranteed by the Parent Guarantee may be   accelerated as and to the extent provided in Article VI for the purposes of the Parent Guarantee,   notwithstanding any stay, injunction or other prohibition preventing such acceleration in respect   of the obligations guaranteed by the Parent Guarantee, and (2) in the event of any acceleration of   such obligations as provided in Article VI, such obligations (whether or not due and payable)   shall forthwith become due and payable by Holdings in accordance with the terms of this Section   1401 for the purpose of the Parent Guarantee. Neither the Trustee nor any other Person shall   have any obligation to enforce or exhaust any rights or remedies or to take any other steps under   any security for the Parent Guaranteed Obligations or against the Company or any other Person   or any property of the Company or any other Person before the Trustee is entitled to demand   payment and performance by Holdings of its obligations under the Parent Guarantee or under   this Indenture.   (iii) Until terminated in accordance with Section 1403, the Parent Guarantee   shall remain in full force and effect and continue to be effective should any petition be filed by or   against the Company for liquidation or reorganization, should the Company become insolvent or   make an assignment for the benefit of creditors or should a receiver or trustee be appointed for   all or any significant part of the Company’s assets, and shall, to the fullest extent permitted by   law, continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time payment and   performance of the Notes are, pursuant to applicable law, rescinded or reduced in amount, or   must otherwise be restored or returned by any obligee on such Notes, whether as a “voidable   preference,” “fraudulent transfer” or otherwise, all as though such payment or performance had   not been made. In the event that any payment, or any part thereof, is rescinded, reduced, restored   or returned, the Notes shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be reinstated and deemed   reduced only by such amount paid and not so rescinded, reduced, restored or returned.   (c) If Holdings makes a payment or distribution under its Parent Guarantee, it   shall have the right to seek contribution from the Company or any non-paying Subsidiary   Guarantor that has also Guaranteed the relevant Parent Guaranteed Obligations in respect of     
  173      which such payment or distribution is made, so long as the exercise of such right does not impair   the rights of the Holders under the Parent Guarantee.   (d) Holdings acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits   from the financing arrangements contemplated by this Indenture and that its Parent Guarantee,   and the waiver set forth in Section 1405, are knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits.   (e) Holdings, pursuant to its Parent Guarantee, also hereby agrees to pay any   and all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees and expenses)   incurred by the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent or the Holders in enforcing any rights under   its Parent Guarantee.   Section 1402. Continuing Guarantees. (a) The Parent Guarantee shall be a   continuing Guarantee and shall (i) subject to Section 1403, remain in full force and effect until   payment in full of the principal amount of all Outstanding Notes (whether by payment at   maturity, purchase, repurchase, redemption, defeasance or other acquisition or retirement) and all   other Parent Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing unless earlier terminated as described   below, (ii) be binding upon Holdings and (iii) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the   Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent, the Holders and their permitted successors, transferees and   assigns.   (b) The obligations of Holdings hereunder shall continue to be effective or   shall be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment which would otherwise have   reduced or terminated the obligations of Holdings hereunder and under its Parent Guarantee   (whether such payment shall have been made by or on behalf of the Company, or by or on behalf   of Holdings) is rescinded or reclaimed from any of the Holders upon the insolvency, bankruptcy,   liquidation or reorganization of the Company or Holdings or otherwise, all as though such   payment had not been made.   Section 1403. Release of Parent Guarantee. Notwithstanding the provisions of   Section 1402, the Parent Guarantee will be subject to termination and discharge under the   circumstances described in this Section 1403. Holdings will automatically and unconditionally   be released from all obligations under the Parent Guarantee, and the Parent Guarantee shall   thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect, (i) at any time that   Holdings is (or, substantially concurrently with the release of the Parent Guarantee or if as a   result of the release of the Parent Guarantee, will be) released from all of its obligations under its   Guarantee of payment by the Company of any Indebtedness of the Company under the Senior   Cash Flow Facility (other than a release in connection with a Discharge of all of the Obligations   under the Senior Cash Flow Facility) (it being understood that a release subject to contingent   reinstatement is still a release, and that if any such Guarantee is so reinstated, the Parent   Guarantee shall be reinstated to the extent that Holdings would then be required to provide the   Parent Guarantee), (ii) upon the merger or consolidation of Holdings with and into the Company   or a Subsidiary Guarantor that is the surviving Person in such merger or consolidation, or upon   the liquidation of Holdings following the transfer of all of its assets to any of the Company and   the Subsidiary Guarantors, (iii) during the Suspension Period (it being understood that upon the     
 
  174      occurrence of a Reversion Time, Holdings shall be reinstated to the extent that Holdings would   then be required to provide the Parent Guarantee), (iv) upon Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance   of the Company’s obligations, or satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture pursuant to Section   1101, or (v) subject to Section 1402(b), upon payment in full of the aggregate principal amount   of all Notes then Outstanding and all other Parent Guaranteed Obligations then due and owing.   In addition, if Holdings has not guaranteed payment by the Company of any Indebtedness of the   Company under the Senior Cash Flow Facility (other than as a result of a discharge of all of the   Obligations under the Senior Cash Flow Facility), the Company will have the right, upon 10   days’ notice to the Trustee (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Trustee), to cause Holdings   to be unconditionally released from all obligations under the Parent Guarantee, and the Parent   Guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of no further force or effect. In   addition, Holdings will automatically and unconditionally be released from all obligations under   the Parent Guarantee as described in either of the final two paragraphs of this “Parent Guarantee”   section, in which case the Parent Guarantee shall thereupon terminate and be discharged and of   no further force or effect. Upon any such occurrence specified in this paragraph, the Trustee shall   execute any documents reasonably requested by the Company in order to evidence such release,   discharge and termination in respect of the Parent Guarantee.   Upon any such occurrence specified in this Section 1403, the Trustee shall upon receipt of an   Officer’s Certificate, at the Company’s expense, execute any documents reasonably requested by   the Company in order to evidence such release, discharge and termination in respect of the   Parent Guarantee. The Company shall deliver notice to the Trustee and the Note Collateral Agent   of any release or termination contemplated under this Section 1403, but failure to so notify the   Trustee or the Note Collateral Agent shall not invalidate such release or termination or constitute   a Default or Event of Default by the Company.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Holder expressly and irrevocably agrees that it will not   hinder, or direct the Trustee to take any action that will hinder, the automatic release of the   Parent Guarantee provided for by this Section 1403 to the extent the Company determines in   good faith that the applicable transaction is permitted under this Indenture, and each Holder   expressly and irrevocably agrees that the Trustee shall be authorized to, and shall, take any   necessary action to release Holdings to the extent authorized to do so by this Section 1403   without any obligation or requirement to notify or obtain consent from any Holder (and the   Trustee shall not condition any such actions on providing notice to, or obtaining consent from,   the Holders).   Section 1404. [Reserved].   Section 1405. Waiver of Subrogation.

  175      not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity, or under contract, statute or common law, until   this Indenture is discharged and all of the Notes are discharged and paid in full. If any amount   shall be paid to Holdings in violation of the preceding sentence and the Notes shall not have been   paid in full, such amount shall be deemed to have been paid to Holdings for the benefit of, and   held in trust for the benefit of, the Holders of the Notes, and shall forthwith be paid to the   Trustee for the benefit of such Holders to be credited and applied upon the Notes, whether   matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Indenture.   Section 1406. Notation Not Required. Neither the Company nor Holdings shall   be required to make a notation on the Notes to reflect the Parent Guarantee or any release,   termination or discharge thereof.   Section 1407.

Notices. Notice to Holdings shall be sufficient if addressed to   Holdings care of the Company at the address, place and manner provided in Section 109.   Section 1410. Successor Holding Company.

  177      ARTICLE XV      COLLATERAL AND SECURITY   Section 1501. Collateral and Security Documents. The punctual payment when   due, whether at Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all monetary obligations of the   Company and any Guarantor under this Indenture, the Notes and the Note Security Documents,   whether for principal of or interest on the Notes, expenses, indemnification or otherwise, shall be   secured as provided in the Note Security Documents, which define the terms of the Liens that   secure the Secured Obligations, subject to the terms of the Intercreditor Agreements. The   Trustee and the Company hereby acknowledge and agree that the Note Collateral Agent holds   the Collateral in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties, in each case pursuant and subject to   the terms of the Note Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements. Each Holder, by   accepting a Note, consents and agrees to the terms of the Note Security Documents (including   the provisions providing for the possession, use, release and foreclosure of Collateral), this   Indenture and the Intercreditor Agreements, in each case as the same may be in effect or may be   amended, supplemented, waived or otherwise modified from time to time in accordance with   their terms, and authorizes and directs the Note Collateral Agent to enter into the Note Security   Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and to perform its obligations and exercise its   rights thereunder in accordance therewith. Pursuant and subject to the terms of the Note Security   Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements, the Company shall deliver to the Note Collateral   Agent copies of all documents and will do or cause to be done all such acts and things as may be   reasonably required by the next sentence of this Section 1501, to reasonably assure and confirm   to the Note Collateral Agent the security interest in the Collateral contemplated hereby, by the   Note Security Documents or any part thereof, as from time to time constituted, so as to render   the same available for the security and benefit of this Indenture and of the Notes secured hereby,   according to the intent and purposes herein expressed. The Company shall, and shall cause each   of the Guarantors to, use commercially reasonable efforts to take any and all actions reasonably   necessary to cause the Note Security Documents to create and maintain, as security for the   Secured Obligations, a valid and enforceable perfected Lien and security interest in and on all of   the Collateral in favor of the Note Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties, as and   to the extent contemplated by the Note Security Documents and subject to the terms of the   Intercreditor Agreements, including making all filings and recordings (including filings of   continuation statements and amendments to financing statements that may be necessary to   continue the effectiveness of such financing statements) or recordings and taking all other similar   actions as are reasonably necessary or required by the Note Security Documents or that the Note   Collateral Agent may reasonably request (to the extent required under the Note Security   Documents) in order to create, preserve, validate, maintain and perfect (at the sole cost and   expense of the Company and the Guarantors) the security interest and liens created by the Note   Security Documents in the Collateral as a perfected security interest, in each case other than with   respect to any Collateral the lien or security interest in or on which is not required to be   maintained or perfected under the Note Security Documents, and subject to Liens permitted   under this Indenture, including Permitted Liens and other Liens permitted by Section 413. In   addition, the Trustee and Note Collateral Agent shall have no responsibility or liability (i) in     
 
  178      connection with the acts or omissions of the Company in respect of the foregoing or (ii) for or   with respect to the legality, validity and enforceability of any security interest created in the   Collateral or the perfection and priority of such security interest. For the avoidance of doubt, if   any Guarantor shall not so maintain the security interest and liens created by the Note Security   Documents as a perfected security interest as described therein (in the case of the Collateral   Agreement, as described in Subsection 4.2.2, 4.3.4 or 4.3.5 thereof, as applicable)   notwithstanding its use of commercially reasonable efforts, such failure shall not (by reason of   the use of commercially reasonable efforts) be deemed to be in accordance with the terms of this   Indenture or any of the Note Security Documents for purpose of clause (i) of the first   parenthetical in Section 601(xii). The Company and the Guarantors shall continue to have the   right to possess and control their property and assets constituting Collateral and exercise all   rights with respect thereto, subject to the terms of the Note Security Documents.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Company and the Guarantors are unable to   complete on or prior to the Issue Date all filings and other similar actions required in connection   with the perfection of such liens and security interests (other than the filing of UCC financing   statements), the Company and the Guarantors shall use their commercially reasonable efforts to   complete such actions as soon as reasonably practicable (but no later than 180 days) after the   Issue Date (as such period may be extended, or completion waived, by the agent or other   representative for the holders of the Cash Flow Obligations (or, if no Cash Flow Obligations are   then outstanding, of any other Cash Flow Collateral Obligations) in its sole discretion to the   extent such extension or waiver applies with respect to the Cash Flow Obligations (or such Cash   Flow Collateral Obligations, if applicable)).   Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holdings, the Company and the Guarantors will   not be required to (v) take any action in any jurisdiction other than the United States of America,   or required by the laws of any such non-U.S. jurisdiction, or enter into any security agreement or   pledge agreement governed by the laws of any such non-U.S. jurisdiction, in order to create any   security interests (or other Liens) in assets located or titled outside of the United States of   America or to perfect any security interests (or other Liens) in any Collateral, (w) deliver control   agreements with respect to, or confer perfection by “control” over, any deposit accounts, bank or   securities account or other Collateral, except (A) so long as the Senior ABL Agreement (or any   Additional ABL Credit Facility (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement)) is in effect, as   required by Subsection 4.16 of the Senior ABL Agreement (or any corresponding provision of   any Additional ABL Credit Facility (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement)) unless the   applicable Granting Party is unable to deliver such control agreement after its use of   commercially reasonable efforts and (B) in the case of Collateral that constitutes Capital Stock or   intercompany notes in certificated form, delivering such Capital Stock or intercompany notes (in   the case of intercompany notes, limited to any such note with a principal amount in excess of   $15.0 million) to the Note Collateral Agent (or another Person as contemplated by the   Intercreditor Agreements), (x) take any action in order to perfect any security interests in any   assets specifically requiring perfection through control (including cash, cash equivalents, deposit   accounts or securities accounts) (except, in each case, (A) so long as the Senior ABL Agreement   (or any Additional ABL Credit Facility (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement)) is in     
  179      effect, as required by Subsection 4.16 of the Senior ABL Agreement (or any corresponding   provision of any Additional ABL Credit Facility (as defined in the Base Intercreditor   Agreement)) unless the applicable Granting Party is unable to deliver such control agreement   after its use of commercially reasonable efforts and (B) to the extent consisting of proceeds   perfected automatically or by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial   Code or, in the case of pledged Capital Stock or pledged intercompany notes, by being held by   the Note Collateral Agent (or another Person as contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreements),   (y) deliver landlord lien waivers, estoppels or collateral access letters or (z) file any fixture filing   with respect to any security interest in fixtures affixed to or attached to any real property   constituting Excluded Assets.   The Collateral shall not at any time include any Excluded Assets. Without   limiting the foregoing, to the extent constituting Excluded Assets, the Collateral shall not include   any Capital Stock and other securities of a Subsidiary of the Company to the extent that the   pledge of or grant of any other Lien on such Capital Stock and other securities for the benefit of   any holders of securities results in the Company or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries being   required to file separate financial statements for such Subsidiary with the SEC (or any other   governmental authority) pursuant to either Rule 3-10 or 3-16 of Regulation S-X under the   Securities Act, or any other law, rule or regulation as in effect from time to time, but only to the   extent necessary to not be subject to such requirement.   Collateral of the Company will secure the Obligations of the Company under the   Notes, Collateral of Holdings will secure the Obligations of Holdings under the Parent Guarantee   and Collateral of each Subsidiary Guarantor will secure the Obligations of such Subsidiary   Guarantor under its Subsidiary Guarantee.   Section 1502. Release of Collateral. The Collateral shall be released from the   Lien and security interest created by the Note Security Documents, all without delivery of any   instrument or performance of any act by any party, at any time or from time to time in   accordance with the provisions of the Note Security Documents or as provided by this Section   1502.

Promptly, but in no event later than 90   days (or, in the case of real property and the mortgages, 180 days), following the acquisition by   the Company or any Subsidiary Guarantor of any After Acquired Property, the Company or such   Subsidiary Guarantor shall execute and deliver such mortgages, Note Security Document   supplements, security instruments and financing statements as shall be reasonably necessary to   cause such After Acquired Property to be made subject to a perfected Lien (subject to Liens   permitted under this Indenture, including Permitted Liens) in favor of the Note Collateral Agent   for the benefit of the Trustee, the Note Collateral Agent and the Holders of the Notes, and   thereupon all provisions of this Indenture and the Note Security Documents relating to the   Collateral shall be deemed to relate to such After Acquired Property to the same extent and with   the same force and effect; provided that (a) if any Cash Flow Collateral Obligations are   outstanding at such time, in the case of After Acquired Property constituting Cash Flow Priority   Collateral, the execution and delivery of such documents will only be required, and such After   Acquired Property will only become part of the Collateral securing the Notes, if and to the extent   that such After Acquired Property becomes part of the Collateral securing the Cash Flow   Collateral Obligations substantially concurrently therewith, (b) if any ABL Obligations are   outstanding at such time, in the case of After Acquired Property constituting ABL Priority   Collateral, the execution and delivery of such documents will only be required, and such After   Acquired Property will only become part of the Collateral securing the Notes, if and to the extent   that such After Acquired Property becomes part of the Collateral securing the ABL Obligations   substantially concurrently therewith, (c) the Collateral in any event will exclude Excluded Assets   and (d) in any event the Company or such Guarantor will not be required to (v) take any action in   any jurisdiction other than the United States of America, or required by the laws of any such   non-U.S. jurisdiction, or enter into any security agreement or pledge agreement governed by the   laws of any such non-U.S. jurisdiction, in order to create any security interests (or other Liens) in   assets located or titled outside of the United States of America or to perfect any security interests   (or other Liens) in any Collateral, (w) deliver control agreements with respect to, or confer   perfection by “control” over, any deposit accounts, bank or securities account or other Collateral,   except in the case of Collateral that constitutes Capital Stock or intercompany notes in   certificated form, delivering such Capital Stock or intercompany notes (in the case of   intercompany notes, limited to any such note with a principal amount in excess of $15.0 million)   to the Note Collateral Agent (or another Person as contemplated by the Intercreditor   Agreements), (x) take any action in order to perfect any security interests in any assets   specifically requiring perfection through control (including cash, cash equivalents, deposit   accounts or securities accounts) (except, in each case, to the extent consisting of proceeds   perfected automatically or by the filing of a financing statement under the Uniform Commercial   Code or, in the case of pledged Capital Stock or pledged intercompany notes, by being held by   the Note Collateral Agent (or another Person as contemplated by the Intercreditor Agreements),   (y) deliver landlord lien waivers, estoppels or collateral access letters or (z) file any fixture filing   with respect to any security interest in fixtures affixed to or attached to any real property   constituting Excluded Assets.   Section 1504.

Nothing in this Section 1504 shall be considered to impose any such   duty or obligation to act on the part of the Trustee or the Note Collateral Agent.   Section 1505. Authorization of Receipt of Funds by the Trustee Under the Note   Security Documents. Subject to the provisions of the Intercreditor Agreements, the Trustee is   authorized to receive any funds for the benefit of the Holders distributed by the Note Collateral   Agent under the Note Security Documents, and to make further distributions of such funds to the   Holders according to the provisions of this Indenture.   Section 1506. Purchaser Protected. In no event shall any purchaser or other   transferee in good faith of any property or assets purported to be released hereunder be bound to   ascertain the authority of the Note Collateral Agent or the Trustee to execute the release or to   inquire as to the satisfaction of any conditions required by the provisions hereof for the exercise   of such authority or to see to the application of any consideration given by such purchaser or   other transferee; nor shall any purchaser or other transferee of any property or assets be under   any obligation to ascertain or inquire into the authority of the Company or the applicable   Guarantor to make any such sale or other transfer.   Section 1507. Powers Exercisable by Receiver or Trustee. In case the Collateral   shall be in the possession of a receiver or trustee, lawfully appointed, the powers conferred in   this Article XV upon the Company or a Guarantor with respect to the release, sale or other   disposition of such property or assets may be exercised by such receiver or trustee, and an   instrument signed by such receiver or trustee shall be deemed the equivalent of any similar   instrument of the Company or a Guarantor or of any officer or officers thereof required by the     
  183      provisions of this Article XV; and if the Trustee shall be in the possession of the Collateral under   any provision of this Indenture, then such powers may be exercised by the Trustee.   Section 1508. Reports and Certificates Relating to Collateral.   Any release of Collateral permitted by Section 1502 shall be deemed not to impair   the Liens under this Indenture and the Collateral Agreement and the other Note Security   Documents in contravention thereof.   Each of the Company and the Guarantors may, subject to the other provisions of   this Indenture, among other things, without any release or consent by the Trustee, the Note   Collateral Agent, the Holders or any other Secured Party, conduct ordinary course activities with   respect to the Collateral, including, (i) selling or otherwise disposing of, in any transaction or   series of related transactions, any property or assets that is or has become worn out, defective,   obsolete or not used or useful in the business of the Company and the Guarantors;   (ii) abandoning, terminating, canceling, releasing or making alterations in or substitutions for any   leases, contracts or other agreements or instruments; (iii) surrendering or modifying any   franchise, license or permit that it may hold or own or under which it may be operating;   (iv) altering, repairing, replacing, changing the location or position of or adding to its structures,   machinery, systems, equipment, fixtures and appurtenances; (v) granting a license of any   intellectual property; (vi) selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of inventory in the ordinary   course of business; (vii) collecting accounts receivable in the ordinary course of business;   (viii) making cash payments (including for the repayment of Indebtedness or payment of   interest) from cash that is at any time part of the Collateral in the ordinary course of business;   and (ix) abandoning any intellectual property that is no longer used or useful in the business of   the Company and the Guarantors.   Section 1509. Note Collateral Agent. (a) The Trustee and each of the Holders by   acceptance of the Notes hereby designates and appoints the Note Collateral Agent as its   collateral agent under this Indenture and the Note Security Documents and the Trustee and each   of the Holders by acceptance of the Notes hereby irrevocably authorizes the Note Collateral   Agent to take such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Indenture and the Note   Security Documents to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated   to the Note Collateral Agent by the terms of this Indenture and the Note Security Documents,   together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Note Collateral Agent   agrees to act as such on the express conditions contained in this Section 1509. Notwithstanding   any provision to the contrary contained elsewhere in this Indenture and the Note Security   Documents, the Note Collateral Agent shall not have any duties or responsibilities, except those   expressly set forth herein, nor shall the Note Collateral Agent have or be deemed to have any   fiduciary relationship with the Trustee, any Holder or the Company or any Guarantor, and no   implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or liabilities shall be read into   this Indenture and the Note Security Documents or otherwise exist against the Note Collateral   Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing sentence, the use of the term “agent” in   this Indenture with reference to the Note Collateral Agent is not intended to connote any     
 
  184      fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any   applicable law, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between   independent contracting parties. Except as expressly otherwise provided in this Indenture, the   Note Collateral Agent shall have and may use its sole discretion with respect to exercising or   refraining from exercising any discretionary rights or taking or refraining from taking any   actions that the Note Collateral Agent is expressly entitled to take or assert under this Indenture   and the Note Security Documents, including the exercise of remedies pursuant to Article VI, and   any action so taken or not taken shall be deemed consented to by the Trustee and the Holders.   (b) The Note Collateral Agent may execute any of its duties under this   Indenture or the Note Security Documents by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact and shall be   entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters pertaining to such duties and the Note   Collateral Agent shall not be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any   agent or attorney-in-fact appointed with due care by it hereunder.   (c) No provision of this Indenture shall be construed to relieve the Note   Collateral Agent from liability for its own grossly negligent action, its own grossly negligent   failure to act, or its own willful misconduct, except that (i) this paragraph does not limit the   effect of the third and fourth sentences of Section 1509(a); and (ii) the Note Collateral Agent   shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by the Chairman of the Board,   the President or any other officer or assistant officer of the Note Collateral Agent assigned by the   Note Collateral Agent to administer its collateral agency functions, unless it is proved that the   Note Collateral Agent was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts. The recitals contained   herein and in the Notes, shall be taken as the statements of the Company, and the Note Collateral   Agent assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Note Collateral Agent makes no   representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Indenture or of the Notes, except that the   Note Collateral Agent represents that it is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Indenture,   the Intercreditor Agreements and the Note Security Documents and perform its obligations   hereunder and thereunder. The Note Collateral Agent shall not be accountable for the use or   application by the Company of the Notes or the proceeds thereof. None of the Note Collateral   Agent or any of its agents shall be under any obligation to the Trustee or any Holder to ascertain   or inquire as to the observance or performance by the Company or any Guarantor of any   agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Indenture or the Note Security Documents, or to   inspect the properties, books or records of the Company or any Guarantor.   (d) The Note Collateral Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge or   notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, unless the Note Collateral Agent   shall have received written notice from the Trustee or the Company referring to this Indenture,   describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.”   The Note Collateral Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default   as may be directed by the Trustee in accordance with Article VI (subject to this Section 1509 and   the Intercreditor Agreements); provided, however, that unless and until the Note Collateral Agent   has received any such direction, the Note Collateral Agent may (but shall not be obligated to)     
  185      take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of   Default as it shall deem advisable, subject to the Intercreditor Agreements.   (e) A resignation or removal of the Note Collateral Agent and appointment of   a successor Note Collateral Agent shall become effective only upon the successor Note   Collateral Agent’s acceptance of appointment as provided in this Section 1509(e). The Note   Collateral Agent may resign in writing at any time by giving written notice thereof to the   Company and the Trustee at least 30 days prior to the proposed date of resignation. The   Company may remove the Note Collateral Agent if: (i) the Note Collateral Agent is removed as   Trustee under this Indenture; (ii) the Note Collateral Agent fails to meet the requirements for   being a Trustee under Section 709; or (iii) the Note Collateral Agent shall become incapable of   acting or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent or a receiver of the Note Collateral Agent or of   its property shall be appointed or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Note   Collateral or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or   liquidation. If the Note Collateral Agent resigns or is removed or is incapable of acting, or if a   vacancy exists in the office of Note Collateral Agent for any reason, the Company shall promptly   appoint a successor Note Collateral Agent that complies with the eligibility requirements   contained in this Indenture. If a successor Note Collateral Agent does not take office within 10   days after the retiring Note Collateral Agent resigns or is removed, the retiring Note Collateral   Agent, the Company or the Holders of at least 10.0% in principal amount of the then outstanding   principal amount of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the   appointment of a successor Note Collateral Agent. A successor Note Collateral Agent shall   deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Note Collateral Agent and to the   Company. Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Note Collateral Agent shall   become effective, and the successor Note Collateral Agent shall have all the rights, powers and   the duties of the Note Collateral Agent under this Indenture and the Note Security Documents.   The successor Note Collateral Agent shall mail a notice of its succession to the Trustee. The   retiring Note Collateral Agent shall promptly transfer all property and assets held by it as Note   Collateral Agent to the successor Note Collateral Agent, provided that all sums owing to the   Note Collateral Agent hereunder have been paid. Notwithstanding replacement of the Note   Collateral Agent pursuant to this Section 1509(e), the Company’s obligations under this Section   1509 and Section 1511 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Note Collateral Agent and the   retiring Note Collateral Agent shall not by reason of such resignation be deemed to be released   from liability as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was the Note Collateral   Agent under this Indenture. Any corporation into which the Note Collateral Agent may be   merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any   merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Note Collateral Agent shall be a party, or any   corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the corporate trust business of the Note   Collateral Agent, shall be the successor of the Note Collateral Agent hereunder; provided such   corporation shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under this Article XV, without the execution   or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto.   (f) The Note Collateral Agent shall be authorized to appoint co-note collateral   agents as necessary in its sole discretion. Except as otherwise explicitly provided herein or in the     
 
  186      Note Security Documents, neither the Note Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors,   employees or agents shall be liable for failure to demand, collect or realize upon any of the   Collateral or for any delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise   dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any other Person or to take any other action   whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any part thereof. The Note Collateral Agent shall be   accountable only for amounts that it actually receives as a result of the exercise of such powers,   and neither the Note Collateral Agent nor any of its officers, directors, employees or agents shall   be responsible for any act or failure to act hereunder, except for its own willful misconduct or   gross negligence.   (g) The Note Collateral Agent and the Trustee, as applicable, are authorized   and directed to (i) enter into the Note Security Documents, the Base Intercreditor Agreement,   (ii) execute and deliver any other Intercreditor Agreement, and any amendments, amendments   and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to the Note   Security Documents, the Base Intercreditor Agreement, and any other Intercreditor Agreement,   and to make or consent to any filings or take any other actions in connection therewith, as may   be reasonably determined by the Company to be necessary or reasonably desirable for any Lien   on the Collateral permitted under this Indenture to secure any Indebtedness to become a valid   perfected Lien (with such priority as may be designated by the Company, to the extent that such   priority is permitted by this Indenture), (iii) bind the Holders on the terms as set forth in the Note   Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements and (iv) perform and observe its   obligations under the Note Security Documents and the Intercreditor Agreements.   (h) The Trustee agrees that it shall not (and shall not be obliged to), and shall   not instruct the Note Collateral Agent to, unless specifically requested to do so by a majority of   the Holders and subject to the Intercreditor Agreements, take or cause to be taken any action to   enforce its rights under this Indenture or against the Company and the Guarantors, including the   commencement of any legal or equitable proceedings, to foreclose any Lien on, or otherwise   enforce any security interest in, any of the Collateral.   (i) The Note Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to the   Trustee or any of the Holders to assure that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Company and   the Guarantors or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered, or that the Liens   securing the Collateral have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected,   protected, maintained or enforced or are entitled to any particular priority, or to determine   whether all of any Granting Party’s property constituting Collateral intended to be subject to the   Lien and security interest of the Note Security Documents has been properly and completely   listed or delivered, as the case may be, or the genuineness, validity, marketability or sufficiency   thereof or title thereto, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care,   disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities and powers granted   or available to the Note Collateral Agent pursuant to this Indenture or any Note Security   Document, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission   or event related thereto, the Note Collateral Agent may act in any manner it may in good faith   deem appropriate, in its sole discretion and in accordance with this Indenture and the     
  187      Intercreditor Agreements, and that the Note Collateral Agent shall have no other duty or liability   whatsoever to the Trustee or any Holder as to any of the foregoing.   (j) The Note Collateral Agent and the Trustee, as applicable, are hereby   directed and authorized to enter into any intercreditor agreement on behalf of, and binding with   respect to, the Holders and their interest in designated assets, in connection with the Incurrence   of any Additional Obligations, including to clarify the respective rights of all parties in and to   designated assets, including the Base Intercreditor Agreement. The Note Collateral Agent and   the Trustee shall enter into the Base Intercreditor Agreement and any other Intercreditor   Agreement at the request of the Company, provided that (in the case of such other Intercreditor   Agreement) the Company will have delivered to the Note Collateral Agent and the Trustee an   Officer’s Certificate to the effect that such other Intercreditor Agreement complies with the   provisions of this Indenture, the Notes, the other Note Security Documents and the Intercreditor   Agreements. The Note Collateral Agent and the Trustee, as applicable, each agrees at the   Company’s expense to execute and deliver any amendment to, waiver of, or supplement to any   Note Security Document or Intercreditor Agreement authorized pursuant to Article IX.   (k) The Note Collateral Agent (i) shall not be liable for any action it takes or   omits to take in good faith which it reasonably believes to be authorized or within its rights or   powers, or for any error of judgment made in good faith by an authorized officer, unless it is   proved that the Note Collateral Agent was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts, (ii) shall   not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as the Note Collateral Agent may   agree in writing with the Company (and money held in trust by the Note Collateral Agent need   not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required by law), and (iii) may consult   with counsel of its selection and the advice or opinion of such counsel as to matters of law shall   be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect of any action taken,   omitted or suffered by it in good faith and in accordance with the advice or opinion of such   counsel. The grant of permissive rights or powers to the Note Collateral Agent shall not be   construed to impose duties to act.   (l) If at any time the Trustee shall receive (i) by payment, foreclosure, set-off   or otherwise, any proceeds of Collateral or any payment with respect to the Obligations arising   under, or relating to, this Indenture, except for any such proceeds or payment received by the   Trustee from the Note Collateral Agent pursuant to the terms of this Indenture, or (ii) any   payment from the Note Collateral Agent in excess of the amount required to be paid to the   Trustee pursuant to Article VI, the Trustee shall promptly turn the same over to the Note   Collateral Agent, in kind, and with any such endorsement as may be required to negotiate the   same to the Note Collateral Agent.   (m) The Trustee and the Note Collateral Agent are each Holder’s agents for   the purpose of perfecting the Holders’ security interest in assets that can be perfected only by   possession. Should the Trustee obtain possession of any such Collateral, upon request from the   Company, the Trustee shall notify the Note Collateral Agent thereof, and shall deliver such     
 
  188      Collateral to the Note Collateral Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with   the Note Collateral Agent’s instructions.   (n) The Note Collateral Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, issue   letters of credit for the account of, accept deposits from, acquire equity interests in and generally   engage in any kind of banking, trust, financial advisory, underwriting or other business with the   Company and the Guarantors as though the Note Collateral Agent was not the Note Collateral   Agent hereunder and without notice to or consent of the Trustee. The Trustee and the Holders   acknowledge that, pursuant to such activities, the Note Collateral Agent and its Affiliates may   receive information regarding the Company and the Guarantors (including information that may   be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Company or any Guarantor) and   acknowledge that the Note Collateral Agent shall not be under any obligation to provide such   information to the Trustee or the Holders. Nothing herein shall impose or imply any obligation   on the part of the Note Collateral Agent to advance funds.   Section 1510. Compensation and Indemnification. The Note Collateral Agent   shall be entitled to the compensation and indemnification set forth in Section 707 (with the   references to the Trustee therein applying herein to refer to the Note Collateral Agent); provided   that references therein to negligence shall be replaced with references to gross negligence.   Section 1511. The Intercreditor Agreements and the Note Security Documents.   Each of the Trustee and the Note Collateral Agent is hereby directed and authorized to execute   and deliver the Intercreditor Agreements and any Note Security Documents in which it is named   as a party. It is hereby expressly acknowledged and agreed that, in doing so, the Trustee and the   Note Collateral Agent are not responsible for the terms or contents of such agreements, or for the   validity or enforceability thereof, or the sufficiency thereof for any purpose. Whether or not so   expressly stated therein, in entering into, or taking (or forbearing from) any action under or   pursuant to, the Intercreditor Agreements or any Note Security Documents, the Trustee and Note   Collateral Agent each shall have all of the rights, immunities, indemnities and other protections   granted to it under this Indenture (in addition to those that may be granted to it under the terms of   such other agreement or agreements).   Section 1512. [Reserved].   Section 1513. Confidentiality. The Note Collateral Agent agrees to keep any   information supplied by the Company or any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or   on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries or obtained by   it based on a review of books and records relating to the Company or any Guarantor or any of   their respective Subsidiaries confidential from anyone other than its Affiliates (provided that   each such Affiliate keeps such information confidential in accordance herewith) and to use (and   cause such Affiliate to use) such information only in connection with the duties specifically set   forth in this Indenture and the Note Security Documents; provided that nothing herein shall   prevent the Note Collateral Agent or any such Affiliate from disclosing such information   (a) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (b) upon the request or demand of any   regulatory agency or authority having jurisdiction over the Note Collateral Agent or any such     
  189      Affiliate, (c) that had been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by the Note   Collateral Agent or any such Affiliate that is prohibited by the terms of this Section 1513,   (d) already in the Note Collateral Agent’s or any such Affiliate’s possession (other than   information provided to the Note Collateral Agent or any such Affiliate known by the Note   Collateral Agent or such Affiliate to be subject to any confidentiality agreement or undertaking   in favor of the Company or any Guarantor or any of their respective Subsidiaries) prior to its   receipt of such information from the Company or any Guarantor or any of their respective   Subsidiaries or from another Person supplying it on behalf of the Company or any Guarantor or   any of their respective Subsidiaries or from its review of books and records described above (as   the case may be), (e) in connection with any litigation to which the Note Collateral Agent or any   such Affiliate may be a party, to the extent compelled by legal process in such litigation, (f) to   the extent necessary or advisable in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (g) to   the Note Collateral Agent’s or any such Affiliate’s legal counsel and independent auditors,   provided that such counsel and auditors keep such information confidential in accordance   herewith, or (h) to the Trustee, provided that the Trustee, as the case may be, agrees to keep all   such information confidential pursuant to a written agreement for the benefit of and enforceable   by the Company and Guarantors and their respective Subsidiaries, on terms and conditions   substantially identical to (and in any event no less favorable to the Company and Guarantors and   their respective Subsidiaries than) the provisions of this subsection (which agreement shall be   executed and delivered to the Company prior to any such disclosure to the Trustee); provided   that, in the case of clause (a), (b) or (e), the Note Collateral Agent shall, to the extent practicable   and in accordance with its reasonable business practice, notify the Company of the proposed   disclosure as far in advance of such disclosure as practicable and use commercially reasonable   efforts to ensure that any information so disclosed is accorded confidential treatment.

The Company may provide in any redemption notice that payment of the redemption   price and the performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be   performed by another Person.   (f) Any redemption of Notes pursuant to this Section 6 (including in   connection with an Equity Offering, a Change of Control, other transaction or event or   otherwise) or notice thereof may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction (or,   waiver by the Company in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent, which may   include consummation of any related Equity Offering or the completion or occurrence of a   Change of Control, Asset Disposition or other transaction or event, as the case may be. If such   redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice     
 
  G-7      may state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such   time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole   discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that   any or all such conditions shall not have been (or, in the Company’s sole determination, may not   be) satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date, or by the   Redemption Date so delayed. The Company, the CD&R Investors and their respective Affiliates   may acquire the Notes whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions   or otherwise.   7. [ ]38   8. Form.

Interest on the Outstanding principal amount of 2028 Notes will accrue at the rate of 8.750% per annum and will be payable semi-annually in arrears on January 15 and July 15 in each year and August 1, 2028 (provided that, if the Initial Term Loans (as defined in the Senior Cash Flow Agreement) outstanding as of the Issue Date will not be discharged as of July 15, 2027, in lieu of the Interest Payment Date that would otherwise be on January 15, 2028, such Interest Payment Date will instead be on April 15, 2028), commencing on January 15, 2023, to holders of record on the immediately preceding January 1 and July 1, respectively, and, with respect to the August 1, 2028 Interest Payment Date, July 15, 2028 (provided that, if the Initial Term Loans (as defined in the Senior Cash Flow Agreement) outstanding as of the Issue Date will not be discharged as of July 15, 2027, in lieu of the Regular Record Date that would otherwise be on January 1, 2028, such Regular Record Date will instead be on April 1, 2028) (each such January 1 and July 1, and, as applicable, July 15, 2028 and April 1, 2028, a “Regular Record Date”). Interest on the 2028 Notes will accrue from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or provided for or, if no interest has been paid, from July 25, 2022, except that interest on any Additional 2028 Notes (as defined below) issued on or after the first Interest Payment Date will accrue (or will be deemed to have accrued) from the most recent date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for or, if no interest has been paid on such Additional 2028 Notes, from the Interest Payment Date immediately preceding the date of issuance of such Additional 2028 Notes (or if the date of issuance of such Additional 2028 Notes is an Interest Payment Date, from such date of issuance); provided that if any 2028 Note issued in exchange therefor is surrendered for exchange on or after a Regular Record Date for an Interest Payment Date that will occur on or after the date of such exchange, interest on such 2028 Note received in exchange thereof will accrue from such Interest Payment Date.
5. No Limitation on Aggregate Principal Amount. The aggregate principal amount of 2028 Notes that may be authenticated and delivered and Outstanding under the Indenture is not limited.

Any amount payable pursuant to this Section 6(b) may be funded from any source (including amounts in excess of the Redemption Amount). Any notice of any such redemption may be given prior to the completion of the related Equity Offering, but in no event may be given more than 180 days after the completion of the related Equity Offering.
(c) [Reserved].
(d) At any time prior to August 1, 2024, 2028 Notes may also be redeemed in whole or in part, at the Company’s option, at a price (the “Redemption Price”) equal to 100.0% of the principal amount thereof plus the Applicable Premium (as defined below) as of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date pursuant to Section 307 of the Indenture).

Applicable Premium” means, with respect to a 2028 Note at any Redemption Date, the greater of (i) 1.00% of the principal amount of such 2028 Note and (ii) the excess of (A) the present value at such Redemption Date, calculated as of the date of the applicable redemption notice, of (1) the redemption price of such 2028 Note on August 1, 2024 (such redemption price being that described in Section 6(a)), plus (2) all required remaining scheduled interest payments due on such 2028 Note through such date (excluding accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date), computed using a discount rate equal to the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, over (B) the principal amount of such 2028 Note on such Redemption Date. Calculation of the Applicable Premium will be made by the Company or on behalf of the Company by such Person as the Company shall designate; provided that such calculation shall not be a duty or obligation of the Trustee.
Treasury Rate” means, with respect to a Redemption Date, the weekly average yield to maturity at the time of computation of United States Treasury securities with a constant maturity (as compiled and published in the most recent Federal Reserve Statistical Release H.15(519) that has become publicly available at least two Business Days prior to the date of the applicable redemption notice (or, if such Statistical Release is no longer published or the relevant information does not appear thereon, any publicly available source of similar market data)) most nearly equal to the period from such Redemption Date to August 1, 2024; provided, however, that if the period from the Redemption Date to such date is not equal to the constant maturity of a United States Treasury security for which a weekly average yield is given, the Treasury Rate shall be obtained by linear interpolation (calculated to the nearest one-twelfth of a year) from the weekly average yields of United States Treasury securities for which such yields are given, except that if the period from the Redemption Date to such date is less than one year, the weekly average yield on actually traded United States Treasury securities adjusted to a constant maturity of one year shall be used.
(e) Notwithstanding clauses (a) through (d) of this Section 6, in connection with any tender for all of any series of the 2028 Notes (including pursuant to an Offer), if Holders of not less than 90.0% in the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding 2028 Notes of such series (including the principal amount of any Additional 2028 Notes, or any other Additional Notes of the same series as the 2028 Notes) validly tender and do not withdraw such Notes in such tender offer and the Company, or any other Person making such tender offer, purchases all of the 2028 Notes of such series (including any Additional 2028 Notes and any Additional Notes of the same series as the 2028 Notes) validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Holders, the Company will have the right, upon notice given not more than 30 days following such purchase pursuant to such tender offer, to redeem all of the 2028 Notes (including any Additional 2028 Notes, or any other Additional Notes of the same series as the 2028 Notes) of such series that remain outstanding following such purchase at a price in cash equal to the price offered to each Holder in such tender offer, plus, to the extent not included in the tender offer payment, accrued and unpaid interest to but excluding the Redemption Date (subject to the right of Holders of record on the relevant Regular Record Date to receive interest due on the relevant Interest Payment Date falling prior to or on the Redemption Date). In determining whether the Holders of at least 90.0% in the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Notes have validly tendered and not validly withdrawn the Notes in an offer, Notes owned by an
5


Affiliate of the Company or by funds controlled or managed by an Affiliate of the Company, or any successor thereof, shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of such offer.
(f) Any redemption of Notes pursuant to this Section 6 may be made upon notice sent electronically to each Holder’s registered address in accordance with Section 1005 of the Indenture, and, if applicable, the Company should notify the Trustee of such Redemption Date, and the principal amount of Notes to be redeemed in accordance with Section 1003 of the Indenture. The Company may provide in any redemption notice that payment of the redemption price and the performance of the Company’s obligations with respect to such redemption may be performed by another Person.
(g) Any redemption of Notes pursuant to this Section 6 (including in connection with an Equity Offering, a Change of Control, other transaction or event or otherwise) or notice thereof may, at the Company’s discretion, be subject to the satisfaction (or, waiver by the Company in its sole discretion) of one or more conditions precedent, which may include consummation of any related Equity Offering or the completion or occurrence of a Change of Control, Asset Disposition or other transaction or event, as the case may be. If such redemption or notice is subject to satisfaction of one or more conditions precedent, such notice may state that, in the Company’s discretion, the Redemption Date may be delayed until such time as any or all such conditions shall be satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion), or such redemption may not occur and such notice may be rescinded in the event that any or all such conditions shall not have been (or, in the Company’s sole determination, may not be) satisfied (or waived by the Company in its sole discretion) by the Redemption Date, or by the Redemption Date so delayed. The Company, the CD&R Investors and their respective Affiliates may acquire the Notes whether by tender offer, open market purchases, negotiated transactions or otherwise.
7. [Reserved].
8. Form. The 2028 Notes shall be issued substantially in the form set forth, or referenced, in Article II of the Indenture, and either Exhibit A or B attached to the Indenture, in each case as provided for in Section 201 of the Indenture (as such form may be modified in accordance with Section 301 of the Indenture).
9. Governing Law. THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE TRUSTEE, THE NOTE COLLATERAL AGENT, THE COMPANY, ANY OTHER OBLIGOR IN RESPECT OF THE 2028 NOTES AND (BY THEIR ACCEPTANCE OF THE 2028 NOTES) THE HOLDERS AGREE TO SUBMIT TO THE JURISDICTION OF ANY UNITED STATES FEDERAL OR STATE COURT LOCATED IN THE BOROUGH OF MANHATTAN, IN THE CITY OF NEW YORK IN ANY ACTION OR PROCEEDING ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURE.

For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower   Representative has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which   compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of   118   10066032231008166793v315    
 
fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in exchange rates   or in Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Tangible Assets of the Parent Borrower or the   Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable currency exchange rate,   at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios, baskets or   amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations. If the   Borrower Representative has made an LCT Election for any Limited Condition Transaction,   then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio, basket or amount with respect   to the incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness or Liens, or the making of Restricted Payments,   mergers, the conveyance, lease or other transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the   Parent Borrower or the designation of an Unrestricted Subsidiary on or following the relevant   LCT Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition   Transaction is consummated and the date on which the definitive agreement for such Limited   Condition Transaction is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited   Condition Transaction, any such ratio, basket or amount shall be calculated on a pro forma   basis assuming such Limited Condition Transaction and other transactions in connection   therewith (including any incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness and Liens and the use of   proceeds thereof) have been consummated.   Any reference herein or in any other Loan Document to (i) a transfer,(l)   assignment, sale, disposition or transfer, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to a division   of or by a limited liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability   company (collectively, a “Division”), as if it were a transfer, assignment, sale or transfer, or   similar term, as applicable, to a separate Person, and (ii) a merger, consolidation, amalgamation   or consolidation, or similar term, shall be deemed to apply to the division of or by a limited   liability company, or an allocation of assets to a series of a limited liability company, or the   unwinding of such a division or allocation, as if it were a merger, consolidation, amalgamation   or consolidation or similar term, as applicable, with a separate Person.   Borrower Representative.

The Borrower Representative hereby accepts such   appointment. Each Borrower agrees that each notice, election, representation and warranty,   covenant, agreement and undertaking made on its behalf by the Borrower Representative shall   be deemed for all purposes to have been made by such Borrower and shall be binding upon   and enforceable against such Borrower to the same extent as if the same had been made   directly by such Borrower.   Interest Rates; Benchmark Notification.

The proceeds of such U.S. Facility   Revolving Credit Loans (including any EurocurrencyDaily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term   SOFR Rate Loan) shall be immediately applied to repay the Refunded Swingline Loans.   If the U.S. Facility Commitments shall expire or terminate at any time(d)   while Swingline Loans are outstanding, each U.S. Facility Lender shall, at the option of the   Swingline Lender, exercised reasonably, either (i) notwithstanding the expiration or termination   of the U.S. Facility Commitments, make a U.S. Facility Revolving Credit Loan denominated in   Dollars and as an ABR Loan (which U.S. Facility Revolving Credit Loan shall be deemed a   “U.S. Facility Revolving Credit Loan” for all purposes of this Agreement and the other Loan   Documents) or (ii) purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loans, in   either case in an amount equal to such U.S. Facility Lender’s U.S. Facility Commitment   Percentage determined on the date of, and immediately prior to, expiration or termination of   the U.S. Facility Commitments of the aggregate principal amount of such Swingline Loans;   provided that in the event that any Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing cannot for   any reason be made on the date otherwise required above (including as a result of the   commencement of a proceeding under any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization,   dissolution, insolvency, receivership, administration or liquidation or similar law with respect to   any U.S. Borrower), then each U.S. Facility Lender hereby agrees that it shall forthwith   purchase (as of the date the Mandatory Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing would otherwise   have occurred, but adjusted for any payments received from such U.S. Borrower on or after   such date and prior to such purchase) from the Swingline Lender such participations in such   131   10066032231008166793v315    
outstanding Swingline Loans as shall be necessary to cause such U.S. Facility Lenders to share   in such Swingline Loans ratably based upon their respective U.S. Facility Commitment   Percentages, provided, further, that (x) all interest payable on the Swingline Loans shall be for   the account of the Swingline Lender until the date as of which the respective participation is   required to be purchased and, to the extent attributable to the purchased participation, shall be   payable to the participant from and after such date and (y) at the time any purchase of   participations pursuant to this sentence is actually made, the purchasing U.S. Facility Lender   shall be required to pay the Swingline Lender interest on the principal amount of the   participation purchased for each day from and including the day upon which the Mandatory   Revolving Credit Loan Borrowing would otherwise have occurred to but excluding the date of   payment for such participation, at the rate otherwise applicable to U.S. Facility Revolving   Credit Loans made as ABR Loans. Each U.S. Facility Lender will make the proceeds of any   U.S. Facility Revolving Credit Loan made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence   available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender at the office of   the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, in Dollars in funds   immediately available on the Business Day next succeeding the date on which the U.S. Facility   Commitments expire or terminate. The proceeds of such U.S. Facility Revolving Credit Loans   shall be immediately applied to repay the Swingline Loans outstanding on the date of   termination or expiration of the U.S. Facility Commitments. In the event that the U.S. Facility   Lenders purchase undivided participating interests pursuant to the first sentence of this clause   (d), each U.S. Facility Lender shall immediately transfer to the Swingline Lender, in Dollars in   immediately available funds, the amount of its participation and upon receipt thereof the   Swingline Lender will deliver to such U.S. Facility Lender a Swingline Loan Participation   Certificate dated the date of receipt of such funds and in such amount.   Whenever, at any time after the Swingline Lender has received from any(e)   U.S. Facility Lender such U.S. Facility Lender’s participating interest in a Swingline Loan, the   Swingline Lender receives any payment on account thereof (whether directly from a Borrower   or otherwise, including proceeds of Collateral applied thereto by the Swingline Lender), or any   payment of interest on account thereof, the Swingline Lender will, if such payment is received   prior to 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, distribute to such U.S. Facility   Lender its pro rata share thereof prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise, the   Swingline Lender will distribute such payment on the next succeeding Business Day   (appropriately adjusted, in the case of interest payments, to reflect the period of time during   which such U.S. Facility Lender’s participating interest was outstanding and funded); provided,   however, that in the event that such payment received by the Swingline Lender is required to   be returned, such U.S. Facility Lender will return to the Swingline Lender any portion thereof   previously distributed by the Swingline Lender to it.   Each U.S. Facility Lender’s obligation to make the U.S. Facility(f)   Revolving Credit Loans and to purchase participating interests with respect to Swingline Loans   in accordance with Subsections 2.4(c) and 2.4(d) shall be absolute and unconditional and shall   not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any set-offsetoff, counterclaim, recoupment,   defense or other right that such U.S. Facility Lender or any of the Borrowers may have against   the Swingline Lender, any of the Borrowers or any other Person for any reason whatsoever;   (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default; (iii) any adverse change   132   10066032231008166793v315    
in condition (financial or otherwise) of any of the Borrowers; (iv) any breach of this Agreement   or any other Loan Document by any of the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any other U.S.   Facility Lender; (v) any inability of any of the Borrowers to satisfy the conditions precedent to   borrowing set forth in this Agreement on the date upon which such U.S. Facility Revolving   Credit Loan is to be made or participating interest is to be purchased or (vi) any other   circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.   Repayment of Loans.2.5   (I) Each U.S. Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the(a)   Administrative Agent in Dollars (or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency, as the case   may be) for the account of: (i) each U.S. Facility Lender, each FILO Facility Lender or each   Canadian Facility Lender, as applicable, the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving   Credit Loan or FILO Facility Revolving Credit Loan, as applicable, of such Lender made to   such U.S. Borrower, on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Revolving   Credit Loans or FILO Facility Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable, become due and payable   pursuant to Section 9); and (ii) the Swingline Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of the   Swingline Loans made to such U.S. Borrower, on the Termination Date (or such earlier date   on which the Swingline Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 9). Each U.S.   Borrower hereby further agrees to pay interest (which payments shall be in Dollars (or in the   applicable Designated Foreign Currency, as the case may be)) on the unpaid principal amount   of such Loans from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date until payment in full   thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Subsection 4.1. (II) Each   Canadian Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent in   Dollars (or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency, as the case may be) for the account   of each Canadian Facility Lender, the then unpaid principal amount of each Canadian Facility   Revolving Credit Loan, of such Lender made to such Canadian Borrower, on the Termination   Date (or such earlier date on which the Canadian Facility Revolving Credit Loans become due   and payable pursuant to Section 9).

Unless otherwise directed by the   applicable Issuing Lender, the applicable Borrower shall not be required to make a specific   request to such Issuing Lender for any such extension. Once an Auto-Extension L/C has been   issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable   Issuing Lender to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an extended   expiry date not later than the earlier of (i) one year from the date of such extension and (ii) the   fifth Business Day prior to the Termination Date; provided that such Issuing Lender shall have   no obligation to permit any such extension if (x) such Issuing Lender has determined that it   would have no obligation at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its extended form under   the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Subsection 3.2(c) or otherwise), or (y) it has   received notice on or before the day that is two Business Days before the date which has been   agreed upon pursuant to the proviso of the first sentence of this clause (c), (1) from the   Administrative Agent that any Lender directly affected thereby has elected not to permit such   extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Borrower that one or more of   the applicable conditions specified in Section 6 are not then satisfied, or that the issuance of   such Letter of Credit would violate Subsection 3.1.   (i) Each U.S. Facility Letter of Credit shall be deemed to constitute a(d)   utilization of the U.S. Facility Commitments and shall be participated in (as more fully   described in the following Subsection 3.4) by the U.S. Facility Lenders in accordance with their   respective U.S. Facility Commitment Percentages and (ii) each Canadian Facility Letter of   Credit shall be deemed to constitute a utilization of the Canadian Facility Commitments and   shall be participated in (as more fully described in the following Subsection 3.4) by the   Canadian Facility Lenders in accordance with their respective Canadian Facility Commitment   Percentages.

Each L/C Request shall   specify (i) whether the requested Letter of Credit is to be a U.S. Facility Letter of Credit or a   Canadian Facility Letter of Credit and (ii) the Designated Foreign Currency in which the   requested Letter of Credit is to be denominated (or specify that the requested Letter of Credit   is to be denominated in Dollars). Upon receipt of any L/C Request, such Issuing Lender will   process such L/C Request and the certificates, documents and other papers and information   delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall   promptly issue the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event shall an Issuing Lender   be required, unless otherwise agreed to by such Issuing Lender, to issue any Letter of Credit   earlier than five Business Days after its receipt of the L/C Request therefor and all such other   certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the   original of such Letter of Credit to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed by   such Issuing Lender and the applicable Borrower. The applicable Issuing Lender shall furnish a   copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower Representative promptly following the issuance   thereof. Upon the issuance of any Letter of Credit or amendment, renewal, extension or   modification to a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the   Administrative Agent, who shall promptly notify each Lender, thereof, which notice shall   specify the amount of such Lender’s respective participation in such Letter of Credit pursuant   to Subsection 3.4. If the applicable Issuing Lender is not the same person as the   Administrative Agent, on the first Business Day of each calendar month, such Issuing Lender   shall provide to the Administrative Agent a report listing all outstanding Letters of Credit and   the amounts thereof and the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide such report to each   Lender.   The making of each request for a Letter of Credit by a Borrower shall be(b)   deemed to be a representation and warranty by such Borrower that such Letter of Credit may   be issued in accordance with, and will not violate the requirements of, Subsection 3.1. Unless   145   10066032231008166793v315    
the respective Issuing Lender has received notice from the Required Lenders before it issues a   Letter of Credit that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 6 are not   then satisfied, or that the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate Subsection 3.1, then   such Issuing Lender may issue the requested Letter of Credit for the account of the applicable   Borrower or Subsidiary in accordance with such Issuing Lender’s usual and customary   practices.   No Issuing Lender shall be under any obligation to issue any Letter of(c)   Credit if   any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or(i)   arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing Lender   from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any Requirement of Law applicable to   such Issuing Lender or any request or directive (whether or not having the force   of law) from any banking regulatory authority with jurisdiction over such Issuing   Lender shall prohibit the issuance of letters of credit generally, or   the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more(ii)   policies of such Issuing Lender consistently applied by such Issuing Lender to   borrowers generally.   Fees, Commissions and Other Charges.

Such commission shall be payable to the Administrative Agent   for the account of the applicable Revolving Credit Lenders to be shared ratably among them in   accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages. Each Borrower shall pay to the   Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender with respect to each Letter   of Credit a fee equal to 0.125% per annum of the Dollar Equivalent of the maximum amount   available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit (or such other amounts as may be agreed by   such Borrower and such Issuing Lender) calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the   actual days elapsed, payable quarterly in arrears on each L/C Fee Payment Date with respect to   such Letter of Credit and on the Termination Date or such earlier date as the applicable   Revolving Credit Commitments shall terminate as provided herein. Such commissions and fees   shall be nonrefundable. Such fees and commissions shall be payable in Dollars, notwithstanding   that a Letter of Credit may be denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency. In respect of   a Letter of Credit denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency, such fees and   commissions shall be converted into Dollars at the Spot Rate of Exchange on the date on   146   10066032231008166793v315

The Reimbursement Obligations of Borrowers as3.6   provided in Subsection 3.5 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid   and 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 being proved to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or   insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;   (iii) payment by any Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or   other document that fails to 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 3, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide   a right of setoff against, the obligations of any Borrower hereunder; (v) the fact that a Default   shall have occurred and be continuing; or (vi) any material adverse change in the business,   property, results of operations, prospects or condition, financial or otherwise, of the Parent   Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries.

such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other   documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties   hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the   part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as determined in a final non-appealable judgment of a   court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in   each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality   thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face   to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing   Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents   without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the   contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are   not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.   L/C Disbursements. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly3.7   following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for   payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Lender shall promptly give written notice to   the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative of such demand for payment and if   such Issuing Lender has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any   failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve (x) any U.S. Borrower of its   Reimbursement Obligation to such Issuing Lender and the applicable Lenders with respect to   any such U.S. Facility L/C Disbursement or Canadian Facility U.S. Borrower L/C   Disbursement (in each case other than with respect to the timing of such Reimbursement   Obligation set forth in Subsection 3.5) or (y) any Canadian Borrower of its Reimbursement   Obligation to such Issuing Lender and the applicable Lenders with respect to any such   Canadian Facility Canadian Borrower L/C Disbursement (in each case other than with respect   to the timing of such Reimbursement Obligation set forth in Subsection 3.5).   L/C Request.

If the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, the Canadian(b)   Borrowers shall then deposit on terms and in accounts satisfactory to the Administrative Agent,   in the name of the Collateral Agent and for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, an amount in   cash (in Dollars or in the applicable Designated Foreign Currency, as the case may be) equal to   the Canadian Facility L/C Obligations of the Canadian Borrowers as of such date plus any   accrued and unpaid interest thereon (with interest based on the Dollar Equivalent of any   amounts denominated in Designated Foreign Currencies). Funds so deposited shall be applied   by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Canadian Facility Issuing Lender for   Canadian Facility Canadian Borrower L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed   and, to the extent not so applied, shall be applied to satisfy other Obligations of the Canadian   Borrowers under this Agreement.   Additional Issuing Lenders. The Borrower Representative may, at any3.10   time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall   not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and such Lender, designate one or more   additional Lenders to act as an issuing lender under the terms of this Agreement. Any Lender   designated as an issuing lender pursuant to this Subsection 3.10 shall (in addition to being a   Lender) be deemed to be a “U.S. Facility Issuing Lender” and/or a “Canadian Facility Issuing   Lender”, as applicable, in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender,   and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other U.S.   Facility Issuing Lenders and/or Canadian Facility Issuing Lenders and such Lender. The   Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such additional Issuing Lender. If at any   time there is more than one Issuing Lender hereunder, the Borrower Representative may, in its   discretion, select which Issuing Lender is to issue any particular Letter of Credit.   Resignation or Removal of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may3.11   resign as Issuing Lender hereunder at any time upon at least 30 days’ prior notice to the   Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative. Any Issuing Lender may   be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, each Agent,   the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender.

From and after the effective date of any such resignation or replacement,   (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender   under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued by it thereafter and   (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor   or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as   the context requires. After the resignation or replacement of an Issuing Lender, the retiring or   replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and   obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued   by it prior to such resignation or replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional   Letters of Credit.   152   10066032231008166793v315    
SECTION 4   General Provisions Applicable to Loans and Letters of Credit   Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Term SOFR Rate Loan or4.1   Eurocurrency Loan, as the case may be, shall bear interest for each day during each Interest   Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted LIBOR (i) in the case of   Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Euro, the Adjusted EURIBOR Rate determined for such   day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day, (ii) in the case of Term SOFR Rate   Loans, the Term SOFR Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for   such day and (iii) in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in Canadian Dollars, the   Adjusted CDOR Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such   day.   Each ABRDaily Simple SOFR Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day(b)   that it is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate BaseDaily Simple SOFR Rate   in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.   Each BA EquivalentABR Loan shall bear interest for each day that it is(c)   outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the BAAlternate Base Rate in effect for such day plus   the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.   Each Canadian Prime Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day that it is(d)   outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Canadian Prime Rate in effect for such day plus   the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.   If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan, (ii) any(e)   interest payable thereon or (iii) any commitment fee, letter of credit commission, letter of credit   fee or other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether at the Stated   Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a rate per   annum which is (x) in the case of overdue principal, the rate that would otherwise be   applicable thereto pursuant to the relevant foregoing provisions of this Subsection 4.1 plus   2.00%, (y) in the case of overdue interest, the rate that would be otherwise applicable to   principal of the related Loan pursuant to the relevant foregoing provisions of this Subsection   4.1 (other than clause (x) above) plus 2.00% and (z) in the case of, fees, commissions or other   amounts, the rate described in clause (b) of this Subsection 4.1 for ABR Loans that are   Revolving Credit Loans (or FILO Facility Revolving Credit Loans, as applicable) accruing   interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus 2.00%, in each case from the date of such nonpayment   until such amount is paid in full (as well after as before any judgment relating thereto).   Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date,(f)   provided that interest accruing pursuant to clause (e) of this Subsection 4.1 shall be payable   from time to time on demand exercised in accordance with Subsection 9.2.   It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply strictly with applicable(g)   usury laws; accordingly, it is stipulated and agreed that the aggregate of all amounts which   constitute interest under applicable usury laws, whether contracted for, charged, taken,   153   10066032231008166793v315    
reserved, or received, in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement or any   Notes, or any other document relating or referring hereto or thereto, now or hereafter existing,   shall never exceed under any circumstance whatsoever the maximum amount of interest   allowed by applicable usury laws.   For the purposes of the Interest Act (Canada) and disclosure thereunder,(h)   whenever any interest or any fee to be paid hereunder or in connection herewith is to be   calculated on the basis of a 360 day or 365 day year, the yearly rate of interest to which the   rate used in such calculation is equivalent is the rate so used multiplied by the actual number of   days in the calendar year in which the same is to be ascertained and divided by 360 or 365, as   applicable. The rates of interest under this Agreement are nominal rates, and not effective   rates or yields. The principle of deemed reinvestment of interest does not apply to any interest   calculation under this Agreement.   If any provision of this Agreement or of any of the other Loan(i)   Documents would obligate any Canadian Borrower or any other Canadian Loan Party to make   any payment of interest or other amount payable to any Agent or any Lender in an amount or   calculated at a rate which would be prohibited by applicable law or would result in a receipt by   such Agent or such Lender of “interest” at a “criminal rate” (as such terms are construed under   the Criminal Code (Canada)) then, notwithstanding such provisions, such amount or rate shall   be deemed to have been adjusted with retroactive effect to the maximum amount or rate of   interest, as the case may be, as would not be so prohibited by applicable law or so result in a   receipt by such Agent or such Lender of interest at a criminal rate, such adjustment to be   effected, to the extent necessary, as follows: (1) firstly, by reducing the amount or rate of   interest required to be paid to such Agent or such Lender hereunder, and (2) thereafter, by   reducing any fees, commissions, premiums and other amounts required to be paid to such   Agent or such Lender which would constitute “interest” for purposes of Section 347 of the   Criminal Code (Canada). Notwithstanding the foregoing, and after giving effect to all   adjustments contemplated thereby, if an Agent or Lender shall have received an amount in   excess of the maximum permitted by that section of the Criminal Code (Canada), the Canadian   Borrower or any other Canadian Loan Party shall be entitled, by notice in writing to such   Agent or such Lender, to obtain reimbursement from such Agent or such Lender in an amount   equal to such excess and, pending such reimbursement, such amount shall be deemed to be an   amount payable by such Agent or such Lender to any Canadian Borrower or any other   Canadian Loan Party. Any amount or rate of interest referred to in this Subsection 4.1(i) shall   be determined in accordance with GAAP as an effective annual rate of interest over the term   that the applicable Loan remains outstanding on the assumption that any charges, fees or   expenses that fall within the meaning of “interest” (as defined in the Criminal Code (Canada))   shall, if they relate to a specific period of time, be pro-rated over that period of time and   otherwise be pro-rated over the period from the Closing Date to the maturity date of the   applicable Tranche and, in the event of a dispute, a certificate of a Fellow of the Canadian   Institute of Actuaries appointed by Administrative Agent shall be conclusive for the purposes   of such determination.   Conversion and Continuation Options.

Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no further   Eurocurrency Loans or BA Equivalent Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based   upon the Daily Simple SOFR Rate, Affected Term SOFR Rate or Affected Eurocurrency Rate   or the Affected BA Rate shall be made or continued as such, nor shall any of the Borrowers   have the right to convert ABR Loans to EurocurrencyDaily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term   SOFR Rate Loans or Canadian Prime Rate Loans to BA EquivalentEurocurrency Loans   denominated in Canadian Dollars, the rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the   Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate, Affected Term SOFR Rate or Affected Eurocurrency Rate   or the Affected BA Rate.   In connection with the use, implementation or administration of CDOR(b)   Screen Rate, EURIBOR Screen Rate, Term SOFR Rate, SOFR or any replacement rate   adopted in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent will have   the right to make the Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time with the   consent of the Borrower Representative and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or   in any other Loan Document, any amendments adopting or implementing such Benchmark   Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent   of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Except as   expressly otherwise provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment (but excluding   payments made pursuant to Subsection 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 4.5(b), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d),   4.15(c) or 11.1(g))) by any of the applicable Borrowers on account of principal of and interest   on any U.S. Facility Revolving Credit Loans or Canadian Facility Revolving Credit Loans, as   applicable, shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata according to the respective   outstanding principal amounts of such Revolving Credit Loans then held by the relevant   Revolving Credit Lenders, and each payment on account of principal of and interest on any   loans made pursuant to any Tranche established after the date of this Agreement shall be   allocated pro rata (or as may otherwise be provided for in the applicable amendment to this   Agreement relating to such Tranche) among the Lenders with Incremental Revolving   Commitments in respect thereof or with participations in such Tranche (in each case subject to   any limitations on non-pro rata payments otherwise provided for in Subsection 2.6(b)(i)(E) or   2.6(b)(ii)). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by any of the Borrowers   hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees, Reimbursement Obligations or   otherwise, shall be made without set-offsetoff or counterclaim and shall be made on or 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 2:00 P.M., New York City time (or such   later time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion)) on the   due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders holding the   relevant Loans, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, or the Other Representatives, as the   case may be, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in Subsection 11.2, in Dollars (or in   the applicable Designated Foreign Currency, as the case may be) in immediately available   funds. Payments received by the Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have   been received on the next Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such   payments to such Lenders or Other Representatives, as the case may be, if any such payment is   received prior to 2:00 P.M., New York City time, on a Business Day, in like funds as received   prior to the end of such Business Day and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall distribute   such payment to such Lenders or Other Representatives, as the case may be, on the next   succeeding Business Day. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Daily Simple   SOFR Rate Loans, Term SOFR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Loans or BA Equivalent Loans)   becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment   shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of   principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension. If   any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan or BA EquivalentDaily Simple SOFR Rate Loan, Term   SOFR Rate Loan or Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a   Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business   Day (and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then   applicable rate during such extension) unless the result of such extension would be to extend   163   10066032231008166793v315    
such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the   immediately preceding Business Day. Any pro rata calculations required to be made pursuant   to this Subsection 4.8(a) in respect to any Revolving Credit Loan denominated in a Designated   Foreign Currency shall be made on a Dollar Equivalent basis. This Subsection 4.8(a) may be   amended in accordance with Subsection 11.1(d) to the extent necessary to reflect differing   amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new Tranches   added pursuant to Subsections 2.6, 2.7 and 2.8, as applicable.   Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by(b)   any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would   constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative   Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative   Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to   the applicable Borrowers in respect of such borrowing a corresponding amount. If such   amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the   Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such   amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to (i) for amounts denominated in Dollars, the   daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate, and (ii) for amounts denominated in a Designated   Foreign Currency, the rate customary in such Designated Foreign Currency for settlement of   similar interbank obligations as determined by the Administrative Agent, in each case for the   period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative   Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any   amounts owing under this Subsection 4.8(b) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest   error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative   Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of such Borrowing Date, (x) the   Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower Representative of the failure of such Lender to   make such amount available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall   also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable   to such Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.1 on demand from such Borrower and (y) then such   Borrower may, without waiving or limiting any rights or remedies it may have against such   Lender hereunder or under applicable law or otherwise, borrow a like amount on an unsecured   basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon which such Lender does   in fact make such borrowing available; provided that at the time such borrowing is made and at   all times while such amount is outstanding such Borrower would be permitted to borrow such   amount pursuant to Subsection 2.1.   Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of4.9   or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof in each   case occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or   maintain any EurocurrencyDaily Simple SOFR Rate Loans, Term SOFR Rate Loans or BA   EquivalentEurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such   Lender shall promptly give written notice of such circumstances to the Borrower   Representative and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn whenever such   circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Affected   Loans, continue Affected Loans as such and convert an ABR Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate   Loan to an Affected Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer   164   10066032231008166793v315    
be unlawful for such Lender to make or maintain such Affected Loans, such Lender shall then   have a commitment only to make an ABR Loan or a Canadian Prime Rate Loan (or a   Swingline Loan), as applicable, when an Affected Loan is requested and (c) such Lender’s   Loans then outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, (x) if denominated in Dollars, shall be   converted automatically to ABR Loans, (y) if denominated in Canadian Dollars, shall be   converted automatically to Canadian Prime Rate Loans and (z) if denominated in any other   Designated Foreign Currency, shall, at the option of the Borrower Representative, (i) be   prepaid with accrued interest thereon on the last day of the then current Interest Period with   respect thereto (or such earlier date as may be required by any Requirement of Law) or (ii)   bear interest at an alternate rate which reflects such Lender’s cost of funding such Loans   (which rate, if less than zero, shall be deemed zero for purposes of this Agreement), as   reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, plus the Applicable Margin hereunder. If   any such conversion or prepayment of an Affected Loan occurs on a day which is not the last   day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay   to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Subsection 4.12.   Requirements of Law.

Such a certificate as to any   additional amounts payable pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(a) submitted by such Lender,   through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the   absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Subsection 4.10(a),   the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Subsection   4.10(a) (i) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such Lender   notifies the Borrower Representative of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor   (except that, if the change in law giving rise to such increased costs is retroactive, then the 180   day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect   thereof) or (ii) for any amounts, if such Lender is applying this provision to the Borrowers in a   manner that is inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions   under other credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This covenant shall survive the   termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable   hereunder.   If any Lender or any Issuing Lender shall have determined that the(b)   adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity   or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or such Issuing   Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender or such Issuing Lender with any request or   directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) from   any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing Date, does or shall   have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as   166   10066032231008166793v315

Representative, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably   requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower Representative, such documentation   prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the   Administrative Agent or the Borrower Representative as may be necessary for the   Administrative Agent and the Borrowers to comply with their respective obligations (including   any applicable reporting requirements) under FATCA, to determine whether such Agent or   such Lender has complied with such Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to   determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For the avoidance of doubt,   the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to withhold any Taxes imposed   by FATCA.   If any Lender or Agent is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of(f)   withholding Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any Notes by a   Canadian Loan Party, such Lender or Agent shall deliver to the applicable Borrower, promptly   following the time or times reasonably requested by such Borrower, such properly completed   and executed documentation required by applicable law or reasonably requested by such   Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of   withholding.   For purposes of this Subsection 4.11 and for purposes of Subsection(g)   4.13, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.   Indemnity. Each U.S. Borrower agrees to indemnify each U.S. Facility4.12   Lender and each Canadian Facility Lender, as applicable, in respect of Extensions of Credit   made, or requested to be made, to the U.S. Borrowers, and each Canadian Borrower agrees to   indemnify each Canadian Facility Lender in respect of Extensions of Credit made, or requested   to be made, to the Canadian Borrowers, and, in each case, and to hold each such Lender   harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur (other than through   such Lender’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of   competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable decision) as a consequence of (a) default by   such Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency   Loans or BA Equivalent Loans after the Borrower Representative has given a notice requesting   the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by such Borrower in   making any prepayment or conversion of Eurocurrency Loans or BA Equivalent Loans after   the Borrower Representative has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of   this Agreement or (c) the making of a payment or prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans or BA   Equivalent Loans or the conversion of Eurocurrency Loans or BA Equivalent Loans on a day   which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnification may   include an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have   accrued on the amount so prepaid, or converted, or not so borrowed, converted or continued,   for the period from the date of such prepayment or conversion or of such failure to borrow,   convert or continue to the last day of the applicable Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure   to borrow, convert or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of   such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Eurocurrency Loans or BA   Equivalent Loans, as applicable, provided for herein (excluding, however, the Applicable   Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by   173   10066032231008166793v315    
such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such   amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank Eurocurrency   market. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any amounts under the indemnity contained in   this Subsection 4.12, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the Borrower Representative,   through the Administrative Agent, certifying (x) that one of the events described in clause (a),   (b) or (c) above has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event,   (y) as to the loss or expense sustained or incurred by such Lender as a consequence thereof   and (z) as to the amount for which such Lender seeks indemnification hereunder and a   reasonably detailed explanation of the calculation thereof. Such a certificate as to any   indemnification pursuant to this Subsection 4.12 submitted by such Lender, through the   Administrative Agent, to the Borrower Representative shall be conclusive in the absence of   manifest error. The Borrower Representative shall pay (or cause the relevant Borrower to   pay) such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within five Business Days   after receipt thereof. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the   payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.   Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts. (a) Upon4.13   the request, and at the expense of the Borrower Representative, each Lender and Agent to   which any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or   4.11, and any Participant in respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall   reasonably afford the Borrower Representative the opportunity to contest, and reasonably   cooperate with the Borrower Representative in contesting, the imposition of any Non-Excluded   Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Agent shall not be required   to afford the Borrower Representative the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrower   Representative shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender or Agent such Borrower’s   obligation to pay such amounts pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrowers shall   reimburse such Lender or Agent for its reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and   disbursements incurred in so cooperating with the Borrower Representative in contesting the   imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that notwithstanding the foregoing   no Lender or Agent shall be required to afford the Borrower Representative the opportunity to   contest, or cooperate with the Borrower Representative in contesting, the imposition of any   Non-Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Agent in its sole discretion in good faith determines   that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.   If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than (i) pursuant(b)   to clause (c) below or (ii) after an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has   occurred and is continuing) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change,   would be to cause any of the Borrowers to become obligated to pay any additional amount   under Subsection 4.10 or 4.11, such Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional   amount.   If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the(c)   passage of time or giving of notice, result in the payment of any additional amount to any   Lender or Agent by any of the Borrowers pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or result in   Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans being automatically converted to   ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate rate of interest or   174   10066032231008166793v315    
 
commitments to make ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate   rate of interest, as the case may be, pursuant to Subsection 4.9, such Lender or Agent shall   promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent and shall take such   steps as may reasonably be available to it to mitigate the effects of such condition or event   (which shall include efforts to rebook the Loans held by such Lender at another lending office,   or through another branch or an affiliate, of such Lender); provided that such Lender or Agent   shall not be required to take any step that, in its reasonable judgment, would be materially   disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur additional costs   (unless the Borrowers agree to reimburse such Lender or Agent for the reasonable incremental   out-of-pocket costs thereof).   If any of the Borrowers shall become obligated to pay additional(d)   amounts pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly   taken steps necessary to avoid the need for payments under Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or if   Affected Loans or commitments to make Affected Loans are automatically converted to ABR   Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate rate of interest or   commitments to make ABR Loans, Canadian Prime Rate Loans or Loans bearing an alternate   rate of interest, as the case may be, under Subsection 4.9 and any affected Lender shall not   have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for such conversion under Subsection   4.9, the Borrower Representative shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains,   (i) with the assistance of the Administrative Agent to seek one or more substitute Lenders   reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative to   purchase the affected Loan, in whole or in part, at an aggregate price no less than such Loan’s   principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under this   Agreement, or (ii) so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) then exists   or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon notice to the   Administrative Agent to prepay the affected Loan, in whole or in part, subject to Subsection   4.12, without premium or penalty and terminate the Commitments in respect of the Revolving   Credit Facility and/or the FILO Facility of such Lender. In the case of the substitution of a   Lender, then, the Borrower Representative, any other applicable Borrower, the Administrative   Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an   appropriately completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b) to effect   the assignment of rights to, and the assumption of obligations by, the substitute Lender;   provided that any fees required to be paid by Subsection 11.6(b) in connection with such   assignment shall be paid by the applicable Borrower or the substitute Lender. In the case of a   prepayment of an affected Loan, the amount specified in the notice shall be due and payable on   the date specified therein, together with any accrued interest to such date on the amount   prepaid. In the case of each of the substitution of a Lender and of the prepayment of an   affected Loan, the applicable Borrower shall first pay the affected Lender any additional   amounts owing under Subsections 4.10 and 4.11 (as well as any commitment fees and other   amounts then due and owing to such Lender, including any amounts under this Subsection   4.13) prior to such substitution or prepayment. In the case of the substitution of a Lender   pursuant to this Subsection 4.13(d) or Subsection 4.15(c)(i), if the Lender being replaced does   not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and   Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later   of (a) the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and   175   10066032231008166793v315    
Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the   Borrowers owing to such replaced Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned   shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender and/or the Borrower Representative to such Lender   being replaced, then the Lender being replaced shall be deemed to have executed and delivered   such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the   applicable Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such   Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Lender.   If any Agent or any Lender receives a refund directly attributable to(e)   Taxes for which any of the Borrowers has made additional payments pursuant to Subsection   4.10(a) or 4.11(a), such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall promptly pay such   refund (together with any interest with respect thereto received from the relevant taxing   authority, but net of any reasonable cost incurred in connection therewith) to such Borrower;   provided, however, that such Borrower agrees promptly to return such refund (together with   any interest with respect thereto due to the relevant taxing authority) (free of all Non-Excluded   Taxes) to such Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be, upon receipt of a notice   that such refund is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority.   The obligations of any Agent, Lender or Participant under this(f)   Subsection 4.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans   and all amounts payable hereunder.   Controls on Prepayment if Aggregate Lender Exposure Exceeds4.14   Aggregate Commitments. (a) In addition to the provisions set forth in Subsection 4.4(b), the   Borrower Representative will implement and maintain internal controls to monitor the   borrowings and repayments of Loans by the Borrowers and the issuance of and drawings under   Letters of Credit, with the objective of preventing any request for an Extension of Credit that   would result in (i) the Aggregate Lender Exposure with respect to all of the Revolving Credit   Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) being in excess of the aggregate Revolving Credit   Commitments of all Revolving Credit Lenders then in effect or (ii) any other circumstance   under which an Extension of Credit would not be permitted pursuant to Subsection 2.1(a).   The Administrative Agent will calculate each Individual U.S. Facility(b)   Lender Exposure and each Individual Canadian Facility Lender Exposure, in each case, from   time to time, and in any event not less frequently than once during each calendar week. In   making such calculations, the Administrative Agent will rely on the information most recently   received by it from the Swingline Lender in respect of outstanding Swingline Loans and from   the Issuing Lenders in respect of outstanding L/C Obligations.   Defaulting Lenders.

No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (x) with(b)   the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of   the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be   necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Subsection 9.2 or 11.1, as applicable) or   (y) in the absence of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the   term “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral   Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising   under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term as used merely as a matter of   market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between   independent contracting parties.   Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the(d)   Administrative Agent may use an outside service provider for the tracking of all UCC and   PPSA financing statements required to be filed pursuant to the Loan Documents and   notification to the Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or   expiration thereof, and that any such service provider will be deemed to be acting at the   request and on behalf of the Borrowers and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable   for any action taken or not taken by any such service provider.   (e) The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and   shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration of, submission of, calculation of   or any other matter related to the rates referenced in the definition of “LIBOR Rate” or with   respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto.   Acknowledgement and Representations by Lenders.

In determining compliance with any condition hereunder   to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be   fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing Lender, the Administrative Agent may   presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or such Issuing Lender unless the   Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or such   Issuing Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.   Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers),   independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall be entitled to rely upon the   advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts and shall not be liable for any action taken   or not taken by it in accordance with such advice.   Collateral Matters.

If the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be   removed by the Borrower Representative or the Required Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above   or if the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent or   Collateral Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the   Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders,   which such successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Borrower Representative;   provided that such approval by the Borrower Representative in connection with the   appointment of any successor Administrative Agent shall only be required so long as no Event   of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has occurred and is continuing; provided, further,   that the Borrower Representative shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of any successor   Administrative Agent if such successor is an Approved Commercial Bank. Upon the successful   appointment of a successor agent, such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and   duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, and the term   “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent”, as applicable, shall mean such successor agent   effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and   duties as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be terminated, without   any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this   Agreement or any holders of the Loans or issuers of Letters of Credit.

To the extent required by any applicable law, each10.11   Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable   withholding tax, and in no event shall such Agent be required to be responsible for or pay any   additional amount with respect to any such withholding. If the Internal Revenue Service or   any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that any Agent did not properly withhold tax   from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not   delivered or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify such Agent of a   change in circumstances which rendered the exemption from or reduction of withholding tax   ineffective or for any other reason, without limiting the provisions of Subsection 4.11(a) or   4.12, such Lender shall indemnify such Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly,   by such Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any   expenses incurred and shall make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand   therefor. 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 this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the   Administrative Agent under this Subsection 10.11. The agreements in this Subsection 10.11   shall survive the resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of   rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the   repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Obligations. For purposes of this Subsection   10.11, the term “Lender” includes any Issuing Lender.   Other Representatives. None of the entities identified as joint10.12   bookrunners and joint lead arrangers pursuant to the definition of “Other Representative”   contained herein, shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any other Loan   Document in its capacity as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no Other Representative   shall have nor be deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. At any time that   any Lender serving as an Other Representative shall have transferred to any other Person   (other than any of its affiliates) all of its interests in the Loans and in the Commitments, such   Lender shall be deemed to have concurrently resigned as such Other Representative.   [Reserved].10.13   Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, except   as provided in Subsections 11.5(b) and 11.5(c) above, no Borrower shall have any obligation   under this Subsection 11.5 to any Indemnitee with respect to any tax, levy, impost, duty,   charge, fee, deduction or withholding imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any   Governmental Authority. The agreements in this Subsection 11.5 shall survive repayment of   the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.   Successors and Assigns; Participations and Assignments.

Representative and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided   that (1) no such consent of the Borrower Representative shall be   required if an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) with   respect to the Parent Borrower has occurred and is continuing and   (2) such amounts shall be aggregated in respect of each Lender and its   Affiliates, if any;   the parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to(B)   the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, together with a   processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless waived by the   Administrative Agent in any given case); provided that for concurrent   assignments to two or more Lenders or Affiliates of a Lender, such   assignment fee shall only be required to be paid once in respect of and at   the time of such assignments;   the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to(C)   the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire; and   any assignment of Commitments, Loans or ABL Term(D)   Loans to an Affiliated Lender shall also be subject to the requirements of   Subsections 11.6(h) and (i).   Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to make   assignments under this Agreement to any Disqualified Lender, except to   the extent the Borrower Representative has consented to such assignment   in writing and any such assignment and Disqualified Lender shall be   subject to the provisions of Subsection 11.6(j), except to the extent the   Borrower Representative has otherwise expressly consented in writing.   Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause(iii)   (b)(iv) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and   Acceptance the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of   the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and   obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender   thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and   Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the   case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 (and bound by   any related obligations under) Subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and 11.5,   and bound by its continuing obligations under Subsection 11.16). Any   assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement   that does not comply with Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 4.15(c), Subsection   11.1(g) and this Subsection 11.6 shall, to the extent it would comply with   Subsection 11.6(c), be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such   Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with   clause (c) of this Subsection 11.6 (and any attempted assignment, transfer or   278   10066032231008166793v315    
 
participation which does not comply with this Subsection 11.6 shall be null and   void).   The Borrowers hereby collectively designate the Administrative(iv)   Agent, and the Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrowers’ agent,   solely for purposes of this Subsection 11.6, to maintain at one of its offices in   New York, New York a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to   it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders,   and the Commitments of, and interest and principal amounts of the Loans and   L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time   to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent   manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender   and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register   pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this   Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be   available for inspection by the Borrowers, the Issuing Lender and, solely with   respect to entries applicable to such Lender, any Lender, at any reasonable time   and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In no event shall the   Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether   any prospective assignee is a Disqualified Lender. Notwithstanding the   foregoing, in no event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain,   monitor or inquire as to whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender nor shall the   Administrative Agent be obligated to monitor the aggregate amount of ABL   Term Loans or Incremental ABL Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders. Upon   request by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative shall use   commercially reasonable efforts to (i) promptly (and in any case, not less than   five Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative   Agent) prior to the proposed effective date of any amendment, consent or   waiver pursuant to Subsection 11.1) provide to the Administrative Agent, a list   of, to the Borrower Representative’s knowledge, all Affiliated Lenders holding   ABL Term Loans or Incremental ABL Term Loans at the time of such notice   and (ii) not less than five Business Days (or shorter period as agreed to by the   Administrative Agent) prior to the proposed effective date of any amendment,   consent or waiver pursuant to Subsection 11.1, provide to the Administrative   Agent, a list of, to the Borrower Representative’s knowledge, all Affiliated Debt   Funds holding ABL Term Loans or Incremental ABL Term Loans at the time of   such notice.   Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting for itself and,(v)   solely for this purpose, as an agent of the Borrowers, 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 to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or   any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans,   279   10066032231008166793v315    
letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) except to the   extent that such disclosure is necessary (x) to establish that such commitment,   loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section   5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or (y) for any Borrower   to enforce its rights hereunder. The entries in the Participant Register shall be   conclusive absent manifest error, and a 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.   Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance(vi)   executed by an assigning Lender (unless such assignment is being made in   accordance with Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 4.15(c), or Subsection 11.1(g),   in which case the effectiveness of such Assignment and Acceptance shall not   require execution by the assigning Lender) and an Assignee, the Assignee’s   completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a   Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this   Subsection 11.6(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this   Subsection 11.6(b), the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and   Acceptance, record the information contained therein in the Register and give   prompt notice of such assignment and recordation to the Borrower   Representative. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement   unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this clause (vi).   On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to(vii)   this Subsection 11.6(b), the assigning Lender shall surrender to the   Administrative Agent any outstanding Notes held by it evidencing Loans or   Commitments, as applicable, which are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered   by the assigning Lender shall be returned by the Administrative Agent to the   Borrower Representative marked “cancelled”.   Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 11.6(b) or any other   provision of this Agreement, if the Borrower Representative shall have consented thereto in   writing in its sole discretion, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the   obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loans and Commitments via an electronic settlement   system acceptable to Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative as designated in   writing from time to time to the Lenders by Administrative Agent (the “Settlement Service”).   At any time when the Administrative Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such   Settlement Service, each such assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and   proposed Assignee pursuant to the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service,   which procedures shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower Representative   and shall be consistent with the other provisions of this Subsection 11.6(b). Each assigning   Lender and proposed Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in   connection with effecting any assignment of Loans and Commitments pursuant to the   Settlement Service. Assignments and assumptions of the Loans and Commitments shall be   effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein until the Administrative Agent notifies the   Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein. The Borrower Representative may   280   10066032231008166793v315    
withdraw its consent to the use of the Settlement Service at any time upon notice to the   Administrative Agent, and thereafter assignments and assumptions of the Loans and   Commitments shall be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein.   Furthermore, no Assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant   to this Subsection 11.6(b) would be entitled to receive any greater payment under Subsection   4.10, 4.11, 4.12 or 11.5 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to receive as of   such date under such Subsections with respect to the rights assigned, shall, notwithstanding   anything to the contrary in this Agreement, be entitled to receive such greater payments unless   the assignment was made after an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a) or 9.1(f) has   occurred and is continuing or the Borrower Representative has expressly consented in writing   to waive the benefit of this provision at the time of such assignment.   (i) Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary(c)   course of its business and in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the   Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent, sell participations (other than to any   Disqualified Lender, or a natural person or the Parent Borrower or any of the Parent   Borrower’s Affiliates or its Subsidiaries (other than Permitted Affiliated Assignees)) 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 Commitments and the Loans   owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain   unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the   performance of such obligations, (C) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for   all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (D) the Borrower   Representative, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lender and the other Lenders shall   continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights   and obligations under this Agreement, (E) in the case of any participation to a Permitted   Affiliated Assignee, such participation shall be governed by the provisions of Subsection   11.6(h) (other than subclauses (i) and (iii) thereof) to the same extent as if each reference   therein to an assignment of a Loan were to a participation of a Loan and the references to   Affiliated Lender were to such Permitted Affiliated Assignee in its capacity as a participant, and   (F) the applicable Lender shall have provided the Parent Borrower with not less than five   Business Days’ advance notice of such participation. Any agreement 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, supplement, modification or waiver of   any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement may provide that such Lender   will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, supplement,   modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly affected thereby   pursuant to clause (i) or (iii) of the second proviso to the second sentence of Subsection   11.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to Subsection 11.6(c)(ii), each   Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and shall have the   related obligations under) Subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13, 4.15 and 11.5 to the same extent   as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Subsection   11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits   of Subsection 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided that such Participant shall be   subject to Subsection 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no   281   10066032231008166793v315    
Lender shall be permitted to sell or maintain a participation under this Agreement to or with   any Disqualified Lender and any participation to a Person that is or at any time becomes a   Disqualified Lender shall be null and void, except to the extent the Borrower Representative   has expressly consented to such participation in writing; provided that if any such participation   by a Lender is subject to a sub-participation by such Disqualified Lender to a Person that is not   a Disqualified Lender or natural person, and such sub-participation if made as a participation   directly by such Lender would comply with Subsection 11.6, such sub-participant shall have the   right to assume all of the rights and obligations of such Disqualified Lender under such   participation and thereby become a Participant hereunder in substitution for such Disqualified   Lender (it being understood that such sub-participant shall, prior to the effectiveness of such   assumption, provide to such Lender that sold or maintained such participation all   documentation and information as is reasonably required by such Lender pursuant to “know   your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations and execute and deliver an   appropriate assumption agreement to effect such substitution on terms and conditions mutually   agreed between such sub-participant and such Lender, and such Disqualified Lender shall   thereupon be deemed to have executed and delivered such assumption agreement). Any such   participation and Disqualified Lender not permitted prior to the foregoing sentence shall be   subject to the provisions of Subsection 11.6(j), except to the extent the Borrower   Representative has otherwise expressly consented in writing. Any attempted participation which   does not comply with Subsection 11.6 shall be null and void.   No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment(ii)   under Subsection 4.10, 4.11, 4.12 or 11.5 than it would have been obligated to   make in the absence of any participation, unless the sale of such participation is   made with the prior written consent of the Borrower Representative and the   Borrower Representative expressly waives the benefit of this provision at the   time of such participation. Any Participant that is not incorporated under the   laws of the United States of America or a state thereof shall not be entitled to   the benefits of Subsection 4.11 unless such Participant complies with Subsection   4.11(b) and provides the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender   that granted such participation.   Any Lender, without the consent of the Borrower Representative or the(d)   Administrative Agent, 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 or central bank of a member state   of the European Union, and this Subsection 11.6 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 (by   foreclosure or otherwise) any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.   No assignment or participation made or purported to be made to any(e)   Assignee or Participant shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Borrower   Representative if it would require any Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental   Authority or qualify any Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Borrower   Representative shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it   282   10066032231008166793v315    
 
may reasonably request from any Lender or any Assignee or Participant to determine whether   any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment or participation is   otherwise in accordance with applicable law.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all(f)   of the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the   Borrower Representative or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set   forth in Subsection 11.6(b). Each Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby   confirms that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in   instituting against a Conduit Lender any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization,   arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding under any state, federal or provincial   bankruptcy or similar law, for one year and one day after the payment in full of the latest   maturing commercial paper note issued by such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each   Lender designating any Conduit Lender hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless   each other party hereto for any loss, cost, damage or expense arising out of its inability to   institute such a proceeding against such Conduit Lender during such period of forbearance.   Each such indemnifying Lender shall pay in full any claim received from each such Borrower   pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(f) within 30 Business Days of receipt of a certificate from a   Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative specifying in reasonable detail the cause   and amount of the loss, cost, damage or expense in respect of which the claim is being   asserted, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Without limiting the   indemnification obligations of any indemnifying Lender pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(f), in   the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate each such Borrower for such   claim, any Loans held by the relevant Conduit Lender shall, if requested by the Borrower   Representative, be assigned promptly to the Lender that administers the Conduit Lender and   the designation of such Conduit Lender shall be void.   If the Borrower Representative wishes to replace the Loans or(g)   Commitments under any Facility with ones having different terms, it shall have the option, with   the consent of the Administrative Agent and subject to at least three Business Days’ (or such   shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) advance   notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of prepaying the Loans or reducing or   terminating the Commitments to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to   assign such Loans or Commitments to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend   the terms thereof in accordance with Subsection 11.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, (x) all   Loans to be replaced shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such   Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid),   accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon and any amounts owing   pursuant to Subsection 4.12 and (y) all Commitments to be replaced shall be allocated among   the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner as would be required if such Commitments   were being optionally reduced or terminated by the Borrowers, accompanied by payment of   any accrued fees thereon and any amounts owing pursuant to Subsection 4.12. By receiving   such purchase price (including accrued interest, fees and indemnity payments), the Lenders   under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans or Commitments   under such Facility pursuant to the terms of the form of the Assignment and Acceptance, the   Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register and accordingly no other   283   10066032231008166793v315    
action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this   clause (g) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing   security interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.   (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with(h)   respect to any assignment to or by an Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund:   such Affiliated Lender and such other Lender shall execute and(1)   deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the   form of Exhibit R hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption”)   and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register;   at the time of such assignment after giving effect to such(2)   assignment, (x) the aggregate principal amount of all ABL Term Loans held (or   participated in) by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds shall not   exceed 15.0% of the aggregate principal amount of all ABL Term Loans   outstanding under this Agreement and (y) the aggregate amount of all   Commitments held by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds shall   not exceed 15.0% of the aggregate amount of all Commitments (such applicable   threshold in clause (x) or (y) above, the “Affiliated Lender Cap”) outstanding   under this Agreement; provided that to the extent any assignment to an   Affiliated Lender would result in the aggregate amount of all Commitments or   ABL Term Loans, as applicable, held by Affiliated Lenders exceeding the   Affiliated Lender Cap, the assignment of such excess amount will be void ab   initio;   any such ABL Term Loans acquired by (x) Holdings, the Parent(3)   Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary shall be retired or cancelled promptly upon   the acquisition thereof and (y) an Affiliated Lender may, with the consent of the   Borrower Representative, be contributed to the Parent Borrower, whether   through a Parent Entity or otherwise, and exchanged for debt or equity   securities of the Parent Borrower or such Parent Entity that are otherwise   permitted to be issued at such time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, so   long as any ABL Term Loans so acquired by the Parent Borrower shall be   retired and cancelled promptly upon the acquisition thereof;   [reserved]; and(4)   each Lender making such assignment to, or taking such(5)   assignment from, such Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that in   connection with such assignment, (1) such Affiliated Lender and/or its Affiliates   then may have, and later may come into possession of information regarding the   Loans or the Loan Parties hereunder that is not known to such Lender and that   may be material to a decision by such Lender to enter into such assignment   (“Excluded Information”), (2) such Lender has independently and, without   reliance on the Affiliated Lender, Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any of its   Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their   284   10066032231008166793v315    
respective Affiliates, has made its own analysis and determination to enter into   such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the   Excluded Information and (3) none of the Affiliated Lender, Holdings, the   Parent Borrower and its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, the other   Lenders or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such   Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by   law, any claims such Lender may have against the Affiliated Lender, Holdings,   the Parent Borrower or its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, the other   Lenders and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with   respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender entering   into such an assignment further acknowledges that the Excluded Information   may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.   Each Affiliated Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent promptly (and   in any event within 10 Business Days) if it acquires any Person who is also a Lender, and each   Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent promptly (and in any event within 10   Business Days) if it becomes an Affiliated Lender.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no(ii)   Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund shall have any right to   (A) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion   thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives   of the Loan Parties are not invited, (B) receive any information or material   prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication by   or among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, except to the   extent such information or materials have been made available to the Borrower   Representative or its representatives or (C) receive advice of counsel to the   Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or challenge   their attorney client privilege.   Notwithstanding anything in Subsection 11.1 or the definition of(iii)   “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the   Required Lenders, all affected Lenders or all Lenders have (A) consented (or   not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement   or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom,   (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or   (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake   any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan   Document, an Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund shall be   deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same   proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders   who are not such Affiliated Lenders; provided that, (I) to the extent Lenders are   being compensated by the Borrowers for consenting to an amendment,   modification, waiver or any other action, each Affiliated Lender who has been   deemed to have voted its Loans in accordance with this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii)   shall be entitled to be compensated on the same basis as each consenting Lender   285   10066032231008166793v315    
as if it had voted all of its Loans in favor of the applicable amendment,   modification, waiver or other action); (II) no amendment, modification, waiver,   consent or other action with respect to any Loan Document shall deprive such   Affiliated Lender of its ratable share of any payments of Loans of any class or   ABL Term Loans to which such Affiliated Lender is entitled under the Loan   Documents without such Affiliated Lender providing its consent; and (III) such   Affiliated Lender shall have the right to approve any amendment, modification,   waiver or consent that (x) disproportionately and adversely affects such   Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender or affects such Affiliated Lender   differently in its capacity as a Lender than other Lenders or (y) is of the type   described in Subsections 11.1(a)(i) through (xxi) (other than subclauses (v) and   (vi)); and in furtherance of the foregoing, (x) the Affiliated Lender agrees to   execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any instrument reasonably   requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the voting of its interest as a   Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii);   provided that if the Affiliated Lender fails to promptly execute such instrument   such failure shall in no way prejudice any of the Administrative Agent’s rights   under this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii) and (y) the Administrative Agent is hereby   appointed (such appointment being coupled with an interest) by such Affiliated   Lender as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the   place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated   Lender, from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any   action and to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem   reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii).   Each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund, solely(iv)   in its capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each Affiliated Lender   Assignment and Assumption agreement shall provide a confirmation that, if   Holdings, the Borrowers or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be subject to any   voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation   proceeding (each, a “Bankruptcy Proceeding”), (i) such Affiliated Lender shall   not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede,   or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the   Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third party that is   supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Affiliated Lender’s   claim with respect to its ABL Term Loans (“Claim”) (including objecting to any   debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate   protection, sale or disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as   such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender is treated in connection with   such exercise or action on the same or better terms as the other Lenders and (ii)   with respect to any matter requiring the vote of Lenders during the pendency of   a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including voting on any plan of reorganization), the   ABL Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender (and any Claim with respect   thereto) shall be deemed to be voted in accordance with Subsection 11.6(h)(iii)   above, so long as such Affiliate Lender in its capacity as a Lender is treated in   connection with the exercise of such right or taking of such action on the same   286   10066032231008166793v315    
 
or better terms as the other Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders   and each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund agree and   acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this Subsection 11.6(h)(iv) and the   related provisions set forth in each Affiliated Lender Assignment and   Assumption constitute a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated   by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the United States Bankruptcy Code, and,   as such, it is their intention that this Subsection 11.6(h)(iv) would be enforceable   for all purposes in any case where Holdings, the Parent Borrower or any   Restricted Subsidiary has filed for protection under any law relating to   bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors applicable to   Holdings, the Parent Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable.   Each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund hereby irrevocably   appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment being coupled with an   interest) as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the   place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated   Lender (solely in respect of Loans, Commitments, ABL Term Loans and   participations therein and not in respect of any other claim or status such   Affiliated Lender may otherwise have), from time to time in the Administrative   Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that the   Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions   of this Subsection 11.6(h)(iv).   Each Lender making an assignment to, or taking an assignment(v)   from, an Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such   assignment, (1) such Affiliated Lender then may have, and later may come into   possession of Excluded Information, (2) such Lender has independently and,   without reliance on the Affiliated Lender, Holdings, the Parent Borrower, any of   its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates,   has made its own analysis and determination to enter into such assignment   notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information   and (3) none of the Parent Entity, the Parent Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the   Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability   to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent   permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against the Parent Entity,   the Parent Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their   respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the   nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender entering into such an   assignment further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be   available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Subsection(i)   11.1 or the definition of “Required Lenders” (x) with respect to any assignment or participation   to or by an Affiliated Debt Fund, such assignment or participation shall be made pursuant to an   open market purchase and (y) for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have   (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, supplement, modification, waiver, consent   or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by   287   10066032231008166793v315

Without limiting the foregoing, a Disqualified Lender (1) shall   not be entitled to and shall have no right to receive any payment in respect of   principal (other than with respect to payments of principal on the maturity date   for the applicable Tranche), interest, fees, costs, expenses or any other amount   under or in respect of any Loan Document, including but not limited to pursuant   to Subsection 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, 4.4, 4.5(b), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.12, 4.13(d), 11.1(g) or   11.6 of this Agreement, Subsection 9.4 of the U.S. Guarantee and Collateral   Agreement, Subsection 9.4 of the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement   or any similar provision of any other Loan Document, and (2) shall be deemed   not to be (w) a Secured Party (as defined in the U.S. Guarantee and Collateral   Agreement, the Canadian Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other   applicable Security Document) under or in respect of any Loan Document, (x) a   Cash Flow Secured Party (as defined in the ABL/Cash Flow Intercreditor   Agreement) under or in respect of the ABL/Cash Flow Intercreditor Agreement,   (y) an Original Senior Lien Creditor (as defined in any Junior Lien Intercreditor   Agreement) under or in respect of such Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement or   (z) the analogous party under or in respect of any Other Intercreditor   Agreement.

In connection   with any such replacement, (1) if the Disqualified Lender does not execute and   deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and   Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary or appropriate (in the   good faith determination of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower   Representative, which determination shall be conclusive) to reflect such   replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender   executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other   289   10066032231008166793v315    
documentation and (b) the date as of which the Disqualified Lender shall be paid   by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower Representative) the   amount required pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(j)(iv)(B), then such   Disqualified Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such   Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date   and the Borrower Representative shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute   and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation   on behalf of such Disqualified Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall record   such assignment in the Register, (2) each Lender (whether or not then a party   hereto) agrees to disclose to the Borrower Representative the amount that the   applicable Disqualified Lender paid to acquire Commitments and/or Loans from   such Lender and (3) each Lender that is a Disqualified Lender agrees to disclose   to the Borrower Representative the amount it paid to acquire the Commitments   and/or Loans held by it.   No Disqualified Lender (whether as a Lender, a Participant or(v)   otherwise) shall have any right to (A) receive any information or material made   available to any Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any   other Loan Document, (B) have access to any Internet or intranet website to   which any of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent have access (whether a   commercial, third-party or other website or whether sponsored by the   Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative or otherwise), (C) attend   (including by telephone) or otherwise participate in any meeting or discussions   (or portions thereof) among or with any of the Borrower Representative, the   Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders, (D) receive any information   or material prepared by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent   and/or one or more Lenders or (E) receive advice of counsel to the   Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or challenge   their attorney client privilege.

Each Lender (whether or not then a party hereto) agrees to notify the   Borrower Representative as soon as possible if it becomes aware that (x) it   made an assignment to or has a participation with a Disqualified Lender or (y)   any such Disqualified Lender has received any such information of materials.   The rights and remedies of the Borrower Representative provided(vi)   herein are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies   290   10066032231008166793v315

Any amount due from any Loan Party   under this Subsection 11.8(b) shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by   judgment being obtained for any other amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan   Documents.   The term “rate of exchange” in this Subsection 11.8 means the rate of(c)   exchange at which the Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon   (New York City time), would be prepared to sell, in accordance with its normal course foreign   currency exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.   Counterparts.

If any   Indebtedness that is being given pro forma effect was Incurred under a revolving credit facility,   the interest expense on such Indebtedness shall be computed based upon the average daily   balance of such Indebtedness during the applicable period; provided that, in the case of the Initial   Revolving Commitments (as defined in the Senior Cash Flow Agreement) as of the Closing Date   and the Senior ABL Facility as of the Closing Date, each such facility shall be treated as if it   were in place for any fiscal quarter (or portion thereof) ending prior to the Closing Date, and the   daily balance of Indebtedness thereunder for any date prior to the Closing Date shall be deemed

For the avoidance of doubt, if the   Borrower has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (i), and any   Default, Event of Default or specified Default or Event of Default, as applicable, occurs   following the date (x) a definitive agreement for the applicable Limited Condition   Transaction was entered into, (y) in connection with an acquisition to which the United   Kingdom City Code on Takeovers and Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws,   rules or regulations in any other applicable jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7   announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer in respect of a target of a Limited   Condition Transaction is made (or the equivalent notice under such equivalent laws, rules   or regulations in such other applicable jurisdiction) or (z) notice of redemption,   repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness,   Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given and prior to the consummation of such   Limited Condition Transaction, any such Default, Event of Default or specified Default   or Event of Default, as applicable, shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing   for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such   Limited Condition Transaction is permitted hereunder.   (j) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited   Condition Transaction, for purposes of:   (i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement   which requires the calculation of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio, the   Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio or the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio   or any other financial measure;   (ii) testing baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets   measured as a percentage of Consolidated Tangible Assets or Four Quarter   Consolidated EBITDA); or   (iii) any other determination as to whether any such Limited Condition   Transaction and any related transactions (including any financing thereof)   complies with the covenants or agreements contained in this Agreement,     
 
  85            in each case, at the option of the Borrower (the Borrower’s election to exercise such   option in connection with any Limited Condition Transaction, an “LCT Election”), the   date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed   to be the date (x) a definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Transaction is   entered into, (y) in connection with an acquisition to which the United Kingdom City   Code on Takeovers and Mergers (or any equivalent thereof under the laws, rules or   regulations in any other applicable jurisdiction) applies, on which a “Rule 2.7   announcement” of a firm intention to make an offer in respect of a target of a Limited   Condition Transaction is made (or the equivalent notice under such equivalent laws, rules   or regulations in such other applicable jurisdiction) or (z) notice of redemption,   repurchase, defeasance, satisfaction and discharge or repayment of Indebtedness,   Disqualified Stock or Preferred Stock is given, as applicable (the “LCT Test Date”), and   if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Transaction and the other   transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any Incurrence or   Discharge of Indebtedness and Liens and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had   occurred at the beginning of the most recent four consecutive Fiscal Quarters of the   Borrower ending prior to the LCT Test Date for which consolidated financial statements   of the Borrower are available, the Borrower could have taken such action on the relevant   LCT Test Date in compliance with such ratio, basket or amount, such ratio, basket or   amount shall be deemed to have been complied with; provided, that (a) if financial   statements for one or more subsequent Fiscal Quarters or fiscal years shall have been   delivered pursuant to Subsection 7.1, the Borrower may elect, in its sole discretion, to re-   determine all such ratios, baskets or amounts on the basis of such financial statements, in   which case, such date of redetermination shall thereafter be deemed to be the applicable   LCT Test Date for purposes of such ratios, baskets or amounts and (b) except as   contemplated in the foregoing clause (a), compliance with such ratios, baskets or amounts   (and any related requirements and conditions) shall not be determined or tested at any   time after the applicable LCT Test Date for such Limited Condition Transaction and any   actions or transactions related thereto (including any Incurrence or Discharge of   Indebtedness and Liens and the use of proceeds thereof). For purposes of determining   compliance with any ratio, basket or amount on the applicable LCT Test Date,   Consolidated Interest Expense for purposes of the Consolidated Coverage Ratio will be   calculated using an assumed interest rate based on the indicative interest margin   contained in any financing commitment documentation with respect to such Indebtedness   or, if no such indicative interest margin exists, as determined by the Borrower in good   faith, which determination shall be conclusive. For the avoidance of doubt, if the   Borrower has made an LCT Election and any of the ratios, baskets or amounts for which   compliance was determined or tested as of the LCT Test Date are exceeded as a result of   fluctuations in any such ratio, basket or amount, including due to fluctuations in   exchange rates or in Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Tangible Assets of the   Borrower or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Transaction or any applicable   currency exchange rate, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or   action, such ratios, baskets or amounts will not be deemed to have been exceeded as a   result of such fluctuations. If the Borrower has made an LCT Election for any Limited   Condition Transaction, then in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio,   basket or amount with respect to the Incurrence or Discharge of Indebtedness or Liens, or

  87            Consolidated EBITDA for the Most Recent Four Quarter Period and not the exchange   rate in effect as at the date of determination and if no such exchange rate is available, the   average exchange rate for the Most Recent Four Quarter Period as determined by the   Borrower in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive, from sources it may   reasonably select, except to the extent that the Borrower or any of its Restricted   Subsidiaries has entered into Currency Agreements in respect of any such Indebtedness in   which case Indebtedness subject to such Currency Agreements may, at the option of the   Borrower, be converted into the Reporting Currency by taking into account the effect of   such Currency Agreements.   (p) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in calculating any   Incurrence Based Amounts (including any Financial Incurrence Tests), any (x)   Indebtedness concurrently incurred to fund original issue discount and/or upfront fees   and (y) amounts incurred, or transactions entered into or consummated, in reliance on a   Fixed Amount (including under Subsection 8.1(b)(i)(I)(B)) in a concurrent transaction, a   single transaction or a series of related transactions with the amount incurred, or   transaction entered into or consummated, under the applicable Incurrence Based Amount,   in each case of the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), shall not be given effect in calculating   the applicable Incurrence Based Amount (but giving pro forma effect to all applicable   and related transactions (including the use of proceeds of all Indebtedness to be incurred   and any repayments, repurchases and redemptions of Indebtedness) and all other pro   forma adjustments) and (ii) if any incurrence-based financial ratios or tests (including,   without limitation, any Consolidated Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Leverage   Ratio and Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio tests) (“Financial Incurrence Tests”) would   be satisfied in any subsequent Fiscal Quarter following the utilization of either (x) fixed   baskets, exceptions or thresholds (including baskets measured as a percentage of   Consolidated Tangible Assets or Four Quarter Consolidated EBITDA) that do not require   compliance with a financial ratio or test (“Fixed Amounts”) or (y) baskets, exceptions   and thresholds that require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without   limitation, any Consolidated Coverage Ratio, Consolidated Secured Leverage Ratio and   Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio tests) (any such amounts, “Incurrence Based   Amounts”), then the reclassification of actions or transactions (or portions thereof),   including the reclassification of utilization of any Fixed Amounts as incurred under any   available Incurrence Based Amounts, shall be deemed to have automatically occurred   even if not elected by the Borrower (unless the Borrower otherwise notifies the   Administrative Agent).   (q) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, when the payment of any   obligation or the performance of any covenant, duty, or obligation is stated to be due or   performance required on (or before) a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such   payment (other than as described in the definition of “Interest Period”) or performance   shall extend to the immediately succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time   shall be reflected in computing interest or fees, as the case may be.   1.3 Designation under Base Intercreditor Agreement.

The interest rate on a Loan   denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be   discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the   occurrence of an inability to determine the interest rate, Subsection 4.7 provides a mechanism for   determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept   any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to the continuation of, the   administration of, submission of, calculation of, performance of or any other matter related to   any interest rate used in this Agreement (including, without limitation, the Base Rate, the Term   SOFR Reference Rate or Term SOFR Rate) or any component definition thereof or rates referred   to in the definition thereof, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or   replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics   of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the   same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same value or economic equivalence of the   existing interest rate (or any component thereof) being replaced or have the same volume or   liquidity as did any existing interest rate (or any component thereof) prior to its discontinuance   or unavailability, except, in the case of administration or calculation of such interest rate   hereunder, liability for its own gross negligence, bad faith, willful misconduct or material breach   of the Loan Documents, to the extent determined in a final, non-appealable judgment by a court   of competent jurisdiction. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services   to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referred to   in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no   liability to the Borrowers, 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   by, or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by, any such information   source or service.   SECTION 2      Amount and Terms of Commitments   2.1 Initial Term Loans .

The Borrower hereby, further agrees to pay interest (which payments shall be   payable in the same currency in which the respective Loan is denominated) on the unpaid   principal amount of such Loans from time to time outstanding from the Closing Date until   payment in full thereof at the rates per annum, and on the dates, set forth in Subsection 4.1.   (b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account   or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of   such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid   to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.   (c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Subsection   11.6(b), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of   each Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof, the Tranche thereof, the currency of such Loan and   each Interest Period, if any, applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due   and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each applicable Lender   hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from   the Borrower and each applicable Lender’s share thereof.   (d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained   pursuant to Subsection 2.5(c) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie   evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded;   provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the   Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation     
 
  91            of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such   Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.   2.6 [Reserved].   2.7 [Reserved].   2.8 Incremental Facilities. (a) So long as no Event of Default under   Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) exists or would arise therefrom, the Borrower shall have the right   (on behalf of itself, or in the case of Incremental Loans the proceeds of which will be subject to   an escrow or other similar arrangement, an Escrow Subsidiary (any such Escrow Subsidiary, an   “Escrow Borrower”)), at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date, (i) to request   new term loan commitments, including delayed draw term loan commitments (the “New   Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments”), under one or more new term loan credit facilities to   be included in this Agreement (the “Incremental Term Loan Commitments”) and (ii) to increase   the Existing Loans by requesting new term loan commitments to be added to an Existing   Tranche of Term Loans (the “Supplemental Term Loan Commitments” and, together with the   Incremental Term Loan Commitments, the “Incremental Commitments”), provided that, (i) (x)   the aggregate amount of Incremental Commitments (other than New Delayed Draw Term Loan   Commitments if the Borrower, at its option, has elected to establish such New Delayed Draw   Term Loan Commitments in compliance with the immediately following subclause (y))   permitted pursuant to this Subsection 2.8 shall not exceed, at the time the respective Incremental   Commitment becomes effective (and after giving effect to the Incurrence of Indebtedness in   connection therewith and the application of proceeds of any such Indebtedness, including to   refinance other Indebtedness), an amount that could then be Incurred under this Agreement in   compliance with Subsection 8.1(b)(i) and (y) if the Borrower, at its option, has elected to   establish New Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments in compliance with this subclause (y),   the aggregate amount of such New Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall be unlimited at   the time such New Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments are established; provided that,   (A) Term Loans may only be Incurred in respect of such New Delayed Draw Term Loan   Commitments if at the time of Incurrence thereof (and after giving effect to the application of   proceeds of any such Term Loans to refinance any other Indebtedness), such Indebtedness could   be incurred in compliance with Subsection 8.1(b)(i) and (B) prior to the time that any such New   Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments are funded, any such New Delayed Draw Term Loan   Commitments that have not yet been funded shall not be included in the determination of   “Required Lenders” or “Term Credit Percentage” and (ii) if any portion of an Incremental   Commitment (or any Term Loan Incurred in respect of New Delayed Draw Term Loan   Commitments) is to be incurred in reliance on Subsection 8.1(b)(i)(II), the Chief Financial   Officer or a Responsible Officer of the Borrower shall have delivered (or, in the case of any   Term Loan Incurred in respect of New Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, as a condition   to the funding of such Term Loans) a certificate to the Administrative Agent, certifying   compliance with the financial test set forth in such clause (together with calculations   demonstrating compliance with such test). Any loans made in respect of any such Incremental   Commitment (other than Supplemental Term Loan Commitments) shall be made by creating a   new Tranche. Each Incremental Commitment made available pursuant to this Subsection 2.8   shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of at least $10,000,000 and in integral multiples of   $5,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lower minimum amounts or multiples as agreed to by the     
  92            Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); provided that such amount may be less than   $10,000,000 if such amount represents the then remaining aggregate principal amount available   to be Incurred in compliance with Subsection 8.1(b)(i).   (b) Each request from the Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 2.8 shall set   forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Incremental Commitments. The   Incremental Commitments (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender or by   any other bank or other financial institution (any such other bank or other financial institution, an   “Additional Incremental Lender”, and the Additional Incremental Lenders together with any   existing Lender providing Incremental Commitments, the “Incremental Lenders”); provided that   if such Additional Incremental Lender is not already a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate of a   Lender hereunder or an Approved Fund, the consent of the Administrative Agent shall be   required (it being understood that any such Additional Incremental Lender that is an Affiliated   Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Subsection 11.6(h), mutatis mutandis, to the same   extent as if such Incremental Commitments and related Obligations had been obtained by such   Lender by way of assignment). The Borrower may agree, in its sole discretion, to accept a lesser   amount of any Incremental Commitment than originally requested. In the event there are   Lenders and Additional Incremental Lenders that have committed to an Incremental   Commitment in excess of the maximum amount requested (or permitted), then the Borrower   shall have the right to allocate such commitments on whatever basis the Borrower determines is   appropriate.   (c) Supplemental Term Loan Commitments shall become commitments under   this Agreement pursuant to a supplement specifying the Tranche of Term Loans to be increased,   executed by the Borrower and each increasing Lender substantially in the form attached hereto as   Exhibit I-1 or in such other form as may be appropriate in the opinion of the Borrower and the   Administrative Agent (the “Increase Supplement”) or by each Additional Incremental Lender   substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I-2 or in such other form as may be   appropriate in the opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (the “Lender Joinder   Agreement”), as the case may be, which shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent for   recording in the Register. Upon effectiveness of the Lender Joinder Agreement each Additional   Incremental Lender shall be a Lender for all intents and purposes of this Agreement and the term   loan made pursuant to such Supplemental Term Loan Commitment shall be a Term Loan. Each   Increase Supplement and/or Lender Joinder Agreement may, without the consent of any other   Lender, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents (including amendments to Subsection   2.2(b) to increase the amortization payments or increase interest rate margins thereunder or add   customary call protection provisions with respect thereto to allow for the applicable Incremental   Loans to be fungible with an existing Tranche of Term Loans hereunder) as may be necessary or   appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the   provisions of this Subsection 2.8(c).   (d) Incremental Commitments (other than Supplemental Term Loan   Commitments) shall become commitments under this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an   “Incremental Commitment Amendment”) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan   Documents, executed by the Borrower, an Escrow Borrower (if applicable) and each applicable   Incremental Lender. An Incremental Commitment Amendment may, without the consent of any   other Lender, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or     
 
  93            appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the   provisions of this Subsection 2.8; provided, however, that (i) (A) the Incremental Commitments   will not be guaranteed by any Subsidiary of the Borrower other than the Subsidiary Guarantors   (it being understood that the primary obligation of an Escrow Borrower shall not constitute a   guarantee by a Subsidiary that is not a Subsidiary Guarantor), and (other than with respect to   proceeds of such Incremental Commitments which are subject to an escrow or other similar   arrangement and any related deposit of cash, Cash Equivalents and/or Temporary Cash   Investments to cover interest and premium in respect of such Incremental Commitments) will be   secured on a pari passu or (at the Borrower’s option) junior basis by the same Collateral securing   the Term Loan Facility Obligations (so long as any such Incremental Commitments (and related   Obligations) are subject to the Base Intercreditor Agreement, a Junior Lien Intercreditor   Agreement or an Other Intercreditor Agreement, as applicable) or (at the Borrower’s option) will   be unsecured, (B) the Incremental Commitments and any incremental loans drawn thereunder   (the “Incremental Loans”) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with or (at the Borrower’s   option) junior to the Term Loan Facility Obligations and (C) no Incremental Commitment   Amendment may provide for any Incremental Commitment or any Incremental Loans to be   secured by any Lien on any asset (other than proceeds of Incremental Loans which are subject to   an escrow or similar arrangement and any related deposit of cash, Cash Equivalents or   Temporary Cash Investments to cover interest and premium in respect of such Incremental   Loans) of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Term Loan Facility Obligations; (ii) no   Lender will be required to provide any such Incremental Commitment unless it so agrees;   (iii) [reserved]; (iv) [reserved]; (v) the interest rate margins and amortization schedule applicable   to the loans made pursuant to the Incremental Commitments shall be determined by the   Borrower and the applicable Incremental Lenders; (vi) such Incremental Commitment   Amendment may provide (1) for the inclusion, as appropriate, of Additional Incremental Lenders   in any required vote or action of the Required Lenders or of the Lenders of each Tranche   hereunder, (2) class voting and other class protections for any additional credit facilities and (3)   for the amendment of the definitions of “Disqualified Stock”, “Junior Capital” and “Refinancing   Indebtedness”, in each case only to extend the maturity date and the weighted average life to   maturity requirements, from the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date and remaining weighted   average life to maturity of the Initial Term Loans to the extended maturity date and the   remaining weighted average life to maturity of such Incremental Term Loans, as applicable; and   (vii) the other terms and documentation in respect thereof, to the extent not consistent with this   Agreement as in effect prior to giving effect to the Incremental Commitment Amendment, shall   otherwise be reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower.   2.9 Permitted Debt Exchanges. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary   contained in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, a “Permitted Debt Exchange   Offer”) made from time to time by the Borrower to all Lenders (other than any Lender that, if   requested by the Borrower, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as   defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as   defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act)) with outstanding Term Loans of a particular   Tranche, as selected by the Borrower, the Borrower may from time to time following the Closing   Date consummate one or more exchanges of Term Loans of such Tranche for Senior   Indebtedness in the form of notes (such notes, “Permitted Debt Exchange Notes”, and each such   exchange a “Permitted Debt Exchange”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the   aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans exchanged     
  94            shall be equal to or more than the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount   thereof) of Permitted Debt Exchange Notes issued in exchange for such Term Loans, plus the   aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses   (including accrued and unpaid interest) incurred or payable in connection with such exchange,   (ii) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans   exchanged by the Borrower pursuant to any Permitted Debt Exchange shall automatically be   cancelled and retired by the Borrower on the date of the settlement thereof (and, if requested by   the Administrative Agent, any applicable exchanging Lender shall execute and deliver to the   Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, or such other form as may be reasonably   requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective   Lender assigns its interest in the Term Loans being exchanged pursuant to the Permitted Debt   Exchange to the Borrower for immediate cancellation), (iii) if the aggregate principal amount of   all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) tendered by Lenders in respect of the   relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender being permitted to tender a principal   amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount of the applicable Tranche actually   held by it) shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans offered to be   exchanged by the Borrower pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then the Borrower   shall exchange Term Loans subject to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer tendered by such   Lenders ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts so   tendered, (iv) each such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made on a pro rata basis to the   Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by the Borrower, is unable to certify that it is   either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an   institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act)) based on   their respective aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Term Loans of the applicable   Tranche, (v) all documentation in respect of such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be consistent   with the foregoing and all written communications generally directed to the Lenders in   connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and made in   consultation with the Administrative Agent and (vi) any applicable Minimum Exchange Tender   Condition shall be satisfied. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Lender shall   have any obligation to agree to have any of its Loans exchanged pursuant to any Permitted Debt   Exchange Offer.   (b) With respect to all Permitted Debt Exchanges effected by the Borrower   pursuant to this Subsection 2.9, (i) such Permitted Debt Exchanges (and the cancellation of the   exchanged Term Loans in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory   payments or prepayments for purposes of Subsection 4.4 and (ii) such Permitted Debt Exchange   Offer shall be made for not less than $5,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Term Loans   (or, in each case, such lower principal amount as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its   reasonable discretion), provided that subject to the foregoing clause (ii), the Borrower may at its   election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Exchange Tender Condition”) to consummating any   such Permitted Debt Exchange that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the   relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer in the Borrower’s discretion) of Term Loans be   tendered.   (c) In connection with each Permitted Debt Exchange, the Borrower shall   provide the Administrative Agent at least five Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be   agreed by the Administrative Agent) prior written notice thereof, and the Borrower and the     
 
  95            Administrative Agent, acting reasonably, shall mutually agree to such procedures as may be   necessary or advisable to accomplish the purposes of this Subsection 2.9 and without conflict   with Subsection 2.9(d); provided that the terms of any Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall   provide that the date by which the relevant Lenders are required to indicate their election to   participate in such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be not less than five Business Days following   the date on which the Permitted Debt Exchange Offer is made (or such shorter period as may be   agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).   (d) The Borrower shall be responsible for compliance with, and hereby agrees to   comply with, all applicable securities and other laws in connection with each Permitted Debt   Exchange, it being understood and agreed that (x) neither the Administrative Agent nor any   Lender assumes any responsibility in connection with the Borrower’s compliance with such laws   in connection with any Permitted Debt Exchange (other than the Borrower’s reliance on any   certificate delivered by a Lender pursuant to Subsection 2.9(a) above for which such Lender   shall bear sole responsibility) and (y) each Lender shall be solely responsible for its compliance   with any applicable “insider trading” laws and regulations to which such Lender may be subject   under the Exchange Act.   2.10 Extension of Term Loans . (a) The Borrower may at any time and from   time to time request that all or a portion of the Term Loans of one or more Tranches (including   any Extended Term Loans) existing at the time of such request (each, an “Existing Tranche” and   the Term Loans of such Tranche, the “Existing Loans”) be converted to extend the scheduled   maturity date(s) of any payment of principal or scheduled termination date(s) of any   commitments, as applicable, with respect to all or a portion of any principal or committed   amount of any Existing Tranche (any such Existing Tranche which has been so extended, an   “Extended Term Tranche”, and the Term Loans of such Extended Term Tranches, the “Extended   Term Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Subsection 2.10; provided that   (i) any such request shall be made by the Borrower to all Lenders with Term Loans with a like   maturity date (whether under one or more Tranches) on a pro rata basis (based on the aggregate   outstanding principal amount of the applicable Term Loans), and (ii) any applicable Minimum   Extension Condition shall be satisfied unless waived by the Borrower. In order to establish any   Extended Term Tranche, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who   shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche) (an   “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Tranche to be   established, which terms shall be identical to those applicable to the Existing Tranche from   which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Tranche”), except (x) all or any of the   final maturity dates of such Extended Term Tranches may be delayed to later dates than the final   maturity dates of the Specified Existing Tranche, (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the   Extended Term Tranche may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified   Existing Tranche and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such   Extended Term Tranche in addition to or in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the   preceding clause (A), in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension   Amendment, and (z) amortization with respect to the Extended Term Tranche may be greater or   lesser than amortization for the Specified Existing Tranche; provided that, notwithstanding   anything to the contrary in this Subsection 2.10 or otherwise, assignments and participations of   Extended Term Tranches shall be governed by the same or, at the Borrower’s discretion, more   restrictive assignment and participation provisions than the assignment and participation     
  96            provisions applicable to Initial Term Loans set forth in Subsection 11.6. No Lender shall have   any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans converted into an Extended Term   Tranche pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Term Tranche shall constitute a   separate Tranche of Term Loans from the Specified Existing Tranches and from any other   Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Term Tranches so established on such   date).   (b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least five   Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable   discretion) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche(s) are   requested to respond. Any Lender (an “Extending Lender”) wishing to have all or a portion of   its Specified Existing Tranche converted into an Extended Term Tranche shall notify the   Administrative Agent (each, an “Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such   Extension Request of the amount of its Specified Existing Tranche that it has elected to convert   into an Extended Term Tranche. In the event that the aggregate amount of the Specified Existing   Tranche subject to Extension Elections exceeds the amount of Extended Term Tranches   requested pursuant to the Extension Request, the Specified Existing Tranches subject to   Extension Elections shall be converted to Extended Term Tranches on a pro rata basis based on   the amount of Specified Existing Tranches included in each such Extension Election. In   connection with any extension of Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection 2.10 (each, an   “Extension”), the Borrower shall agree to such procedures regarding timing, rounding and other   administrative adjustments to ensure reasonable administrative management of the credit   facilities hereunder after such Extension, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the   Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this   Subsection 2.10. The Borrower may amend, revoke or replace an Extension Request pursuant to   procedures reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent at any time prior to the date (the   “Extension Request Deadline”) on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche are   requested to respond to the Extension Request. Any Lender may revoke an Extension Election at   any time prior to 5:00 P.M. on the date that is two Business Days prior to the Extension Request   Deadline, at which point the Extension Election becomes irrevocable (unless otherwise agreed   by the Borrower). The revocation of an Extension Election prior to the Extension Request   Deadline shall not prejudice any Lender’s right to submit a new Extension Election prior to the   Extension Request Deadline.   (c) Extended Term Tranches shall be established pursuant to an amendment (an   “Extension Amendment”) to this Agreement (which may include amendments to (i) provisions   related to maturity, interest margins, fees or amortization referenced in clauses (x) through (z) of   Subsection 2.10(a) and (ii) the definitions of “Disqualified Stock”, “Junior Capital” and   “Refinancing Indebtedness” to amend the maturity date and the weighted average life to maturity   requirements, from the Initial Term Loan Maturity Date and remaining weighted average life to   maturity of the Initial Term Loans to the extended maturity date and the remaining weighted   average life to maturity of such Extended Term Tranche, as applicable, and which in each case,   except to the extent expressly contemplated by the third to last sentence of this Subsection   2.10(c) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Subsection 11.1, shall not   require the consent of any Lender other than the Extending Lenders with respect to the Extended   Term Tranches established thereby) executed by the Loan Parties, the Administrative Agent, and   the Extending Lenders. No Extension Amendment shall provide for any Extended Term Tranche     
 
  97            in an aggregate principal amount that is less than $10,000,000 (or, in each case, such lower   principal amount as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).   Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement and without limiting the generality   or applicability of Subsection 11.1 to any Subsection 2.10 Additional Amendments, any   Extension Amendment may provide for additional terms and/or additional amendments other   than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional amendment, a “Subsection   2.10 Additional Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided that   such Subsection 2.10 Additional Amendments do not become effective prior to the time that   such Subsection 2.10 Additional Amendments have been consented to (including pursuant to   consents applicable to holders of any Extended Term Tranches provided for in any Extension   Amendment) by such of the Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required   in order for such Subsection 2.10 Additional Amendments to become effective in accordance   with Subsection 11.1; provided, further, that no Extension Amendment may provide for any   Extended Term Tranche to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that   does not also secure the Specified Existing Tranche. It is understood and agreed that each   Lender has consented for all purposes requiring its consent, and shall at the effective time thereof   be deemed to consent to each amendment to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents   authorized by this Subsection 2.10 and the arrangements described above in connection   therewith except that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the   terms of any Subsection 2.10 Additional Amendment. In connection with any Extension   Amendment, at the request of the Administrative Agent or the Extending Lenders, the Borrower   shall deliver an opinion of counsel reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent as to the   enforceability of this Agreement as amended by such Extension Amendment, and such of the   other Loan Documents (if any) as may be amended thereby.   (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on   any date on which any Existing Tranche is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity   date(s) in accordance with clause (a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Specified   Existing Tranche of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified   Existing Tranche shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount   of Extended Term Tranche so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Term   Tranches shall be established as a separate Tranche from the Specified Existing Tranche and   from any other Existing Tranches (together with any other Extended Term Tranches so   established on such date).   (e) If, in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender   declines to consent to the applicable extension on the terms and by the deadline set forth in the   applicable Extension Request (each such other Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then the   Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Extending Lender, (i) replace   such Non-Extending Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to)   assign pursuant to Subsection 11.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to   be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement   to one or more assignees; provided that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall   have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the   applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Extended Term Loans on the terms set forth in   such Extension Amendment; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrower owing to   the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans so assigned shall be paid in full by the     
  98            assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower) to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently   with such Assignment and Acceptance or (ii) if no Event of Default exists under   Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i), upon notice to the Administrative Agent, prepay the Existing   Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty. In connection with any such replacement   under this Subsection 2.10, if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the   Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other   documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of (A) the date on which the   replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other   documentation and (B) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrower owing to the Non-   Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee   Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower) to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending   Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or   such other documentation as of such date, the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment   in the Register and the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such   Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Extending   Lender.   (f) Following any Extension Date, with the written consent of the Borrower, any   Non-Extending Lender may elect to have all or a portion of its Existing Loans deemed to be an   Extended Term Loan under the applicable Extended Term Tranche on any date (each date a   “Designation Date”) prior to the maturity date of such Extended Term Tranche; provided that   such Lender shall have provided written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at   least 10 Business Days prior to such Designation Date (or such shorter period as the   Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion). Following a Designation Date, the   Existing Loans held by such Lender so elected to be extended will be deemed to be Extended   Term Loans of the applicable Extended Term Tranche, and any Existing Loans held by such   Lender not elected to be extended, if any, shall continue to be “Existing Loans” of the applicable   Tranche.   (g) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to   this Subsection 2.10, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute optional or mandatory payments or   prepayments for purposes of Subsection 4.4 and (ii) no Extension Request is required to be in   any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided that the Borrower may at its election   specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension   that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Request in the   Borrower’s sole discretion and which may be waived by the Borrower) of Existing Loans of any   or all applicable Tranches be extended. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby   consent to the transactions contemplated by this Subsection 2.10 (including, for the avoidance of   doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Term Loans on such   terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements   of any provision of this Agreement (including Subsections 4.4 and 4.8) or any other Loan   Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated   by this Subsection 2.10.   2.11 Specified Refinancing Facilities. (a) The Borrower may, from time to   time, add one or more new term loan facilities (the “Specified Refinancing Facilities”) to the   Facilities to refinance all or any portion of any Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding under     
 
  99            this Agreement; provided that (i) the Specified Refinancing Facilities will not be guaranteed by   any Subsidiary of the Borrower other than the Subsidiary Guarantors, and will be secured on a   pari passu or (at the Borrower’s option) junior basis by the same Collateral securing the Term   Loan Facility Obligations (so long as any applicable Specified Refinancing Amendments (and   related Obligations) are subject to the Base Intercreditor Agreement, a Junior Lien Intercreditor   Agreement or an Other Intercreditor Agreement) or (at the Borrower’s option) will be unsecured,   (ii) the Specified Refinancing Facilities and any term loans drawn thereunder (the “Specified   Refinancing Term Loans”) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with or (at the Borrower’s   option) junior to the Term Loan Facility Obligations, (iii) no Specified Refinancing Amendment   may provide for any Specified Refinancing Facility or any Specified Refinancing Term Loans to   be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that do not also secure the Term   Loan Facility Obligations, (iv) the Specified Refinancing Facilities will have such pricing,   amortization (subject to clause (vi) below) and optional and mandatory prepayment terms as may   be agreed by the Borrower and the applicable Lenders thereof, (v) [reserved], (vi) [reserved],   (vii) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Facility shall be applied, substantially   concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Loans being   so refinanced pursuant to Subsection 4.4 (including prepayments made with an exchange of   Rollover Indebtedness under the applicable Specified Refinancing Facility as provided for in the   final sentence of Subsection 4.4(g)); and (viii) the Specified Refinancing Facilities shall not have   a principal or commitment amount greater than the Loans being refinanced plus the aggregate   amount of all fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses (including   accrued and unpaid interest) incurred or payable in connection with such refinancing.   (b) Each request from the Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 2.11 shall set   forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Specified Refinancing Facility.   The Specified Refinancing Facilities (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing   Lender or by any other bank or financial institution (any such bank or other financial institution,   an “Additional Specified Refinancing Lender”, and the Additional Specified Refinancing   Lenders together with any existing Lender providing Specified Refinancing Facilities, the   “Specified Refinancing Lenders”); provided that if such Additional Specified Refinancing   Lender is not already a Lender hereunder or an Affiliate of a Lender hereunder or an Approved   Fund, the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld,   conditioned or delayed) shall be required (it being understood that any such Additional Specified   Refinancing Lender that is an Affiliated Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Subsection   11.6(h), mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if such Specified Refinancing Facilities and   related Obligations had been obtained by such Lender by way of assignment).   (c) Specified Refinancing Facilities shall become facilities under this Agreement   pursuant to a Specified Refinancing Amendment to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other   Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower and each applicable Specified Refinancing Lender.   Any Specified Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect   such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of   the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Subsection 2.11, in   each case on terms consistent with this Subsection 2.11.   (d) Any loans made in respect of any such Specified Refinancing Facility shall   be made by creating a new Tranche. Each Specified Refinancing Facility made available     
  100            pursuant to this Subsection 2.11 shall be in a minimum aggregate amount of at least $10,000,000   and in integral multiples of $5,000,000 in excess thereof (or such lower minimum amounts or   multiples as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).   (e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the   effectiveness of each Specified Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby   agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Specified Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement   shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary or appropriate to reflect   the existence and terms of the Specified Refinancing Facilities incurred pursuant thereto   (including the addition of such Specified Refinancing Facilities as separate “Facilities” and   “Tranches” hereunder and treated in a manner consistent with the Facilities being refinanced,   including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Specified Refinancing Amendment   may, without the consent of any Person other than the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (such   consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) and the Lenders providing such   Specified Refinancing Facilities, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan   Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative   Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Subsection 2.11.   SECTION 3      [Reserved]   SECTION 4      General Provisions Applicable to Loans   4.1 Interest Rates and Payment Dates. (a) Each Term SOFR Rate Loan shall   bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum   equal to the Term SOFR Rate determined for such day plus the Applicable Margin in effect for   such day.   (b) Each ABR Loan shall bear interest for each day that it is outstanding at a rate   per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate in effect for such day plus the Applicable Margin in   effect for such day.   (c) Each Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan shall bear interest for each day that it   is outstanding at a rate per annum equal to the Daily Simple SOFR Rate in effect for such day   plus the Applicable Margin in effect for such day.   (d) [Reserved].   (e) If all or a portion of (i) the principal amount of any Loan, (ii) any interest   payable thereon or (iii) any other amount payable hereunder shall not be paid when due (whether   at the Stated Maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), such overdue amount shall bear interest at a   rate per annum which is the rate that would otherwise be applicable thereto pursuant to the   relevant foregoing provisions of this Subsection 4.1 plus 2.00%, in each case from the date of   such nonpayment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment); provided   that (1) no amount shall be payable pursuant to this Subsection 4.1(e) to a Defaulting Lender so     
 
  101            long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender and (2) no amounts shall accrue pursuant to   this Subsection 4.1(e) on any overdue amount or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so   long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.   (f) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date, provided   that interest accruing pursuant to clause (e) of this Subsection 4.1 shall be payable from time to   time on demand exercised in accordance with Subsection 9.2.   (g) It is the intention of the parties hereto to comply strictly with applicable   usury laws; accordingly, it is stipulated and agreed that the aggregate of all amounts which   constitute interest under applicable usury laws, whether contracted for, charged, taken, reserved,   or received, in connection with the indebtedness evidenced by this Agreement or any Notes, or   any other document relating or referring hereto or thereto, now or hereafter existing, shall never   exceed under any circumstance whatsoever the maximum amount of interest allowed by   applicable usury laws.   4.2 Conversion and Continuation Options. (a) The Borrower may elect from   time to time to convert outstanding Loans of a given Tranche denominated in Dollars from Daily   Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans to ABR Loans by giving the   Administrative Agent irrevocable notice of such election prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City   time, two Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent   in its reasonable discretion) prior to such election.

Any such notice of conversion to Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate   Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon   receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected Lender   thereof. All or any part of outstanding Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans, Term SOFR Rate Loans   or ABR Loans may be converted as provided herein, provided that (i) (unless the Required   Lenders otherwise consent) no Loan may be converted into a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or   Term SOFR Rate Loan when any Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing   and, in the case of any Default (other than a Default under Subsection 9.1(h) or (i)), the   Administrative Agent has given notice to the Borrower that no such conversions may be made   and (ii) no Loan may be converted into a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate   Loan after the date that is one month prior to the applicable Maturity Date.   (b) Any Term SOFR Rate Loan may be continued as such upon the expiration of   the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving notice to the   Administrative Agent of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Term   SOFR Rate Loan, determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest   Period” set forth in Subsection 1.1, provided that no Term SOFR Rate Loan may be continued as   such (i) (unless the Required Lenders otherwise consent) when any Default or Event of Default   has occurred and is continuing and, in the case of any Default (other than a Default under   Subsection 9.1(h) or (i)), the Administrative Agent has given notice to the Borrower that no such   continuations may be made or (ii) after the date that is one month prior to the applicable Maturity     
  102            Date, and provided, further, that if the Borrower shall fail to give any required notice as   described above in this clause (b) or if such continuation is not permitted pursuant to the   preceding proviso, such Term SOFR Rate Loan shall be automatically converted to ABR Loans   on the last day of such then expiring Interest Period. Upon receipt of any such notice of   continuation pursuant to this Subsection 4.2(b), the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify   each affected Lender thereof.   4.3 Minimum Amounts; Maximum Sets. All borrowings, conversions and   continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such   amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate   principal amount of the Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans comprising   each Set shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof   (provided that, notwithstanding the foregoing (x) any Loan may be borrowed in an amount equal   to the aggregate amount of the Commitments in respect of such Loan and (y) any Loan may be   converted or continued in its entirety), and so that there shall not be more than 20 Sets at any one   time outstanding.   4.4 Optional and Mandatory Prepayments. (a) Optional Prepayment of Term   Loans. The Borrower may at any time and from time to time prepay the Term Loans, in whole   or in part, without premium or penalty (except as provided in Subsection 4.5(b)), upon notice by   the Borrower to the Administrative Agent prior to 1:00 P.M., New York City time, at least three   Business Days (or such shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its   reasonable discretion) prior to the date of prepayment (in the case of Daily Simple SOFR Rate   Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans), or prior to 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on the date of   prepayment (or such later time as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable   discretion) (in the case of ABR Loans). Such notice shall specify, in the case of any prepayment   of Term Loans, the applicable Tranche being repaid, and if a combination thereof, the principal   amount allocable to each, the date and amount of prepayment and whether the prepayment is of   Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans, Term SOFR Rate Loans, ABR Loans or a combination thereof,   and, in each case if a combination thereof, the principal amount allocable to each. Any such   notice may state that such notice is conditioned upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any   event specified therein (including the effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such   notice may be revoked or extended by the Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative   Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied or waived.   Upon the receipt of any such notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each affected   Lender thereof. If any such notice is given and not revoked, the amount specified in such notice   shall be due and payable on the date specified therein. Partial prepayments pursuant to this   Subsection 4.4(a) shall be in multiples of $1,000,000; provided that, notwithstanding the   foregoing, any Term Loan may be prepaid in its entirety. Each prepayment of Initial Term   Loans pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(a) made prior to August 1, 2026 shall be accompanied by   the payment of the applicable fee designated by the Borrower in its sole discretion and as   required by Subsection 4.5(b).   (b) [Reserved].   (c) [Reserved].     
 
  103            (d) [Reserved].   (e) Mandatory Prepayment of Term Loans. (i) The Borrower shall, in   accordance with Subsection 4.4(g), prepay the Term Loans to the extent required by Subsection   8.4(b) (subject to Subsection 8.4(c)) and (ii) if on or after the Closing Date, the Borrower or any   of its Restricted Subsidiaries shall Incur (A) Specified Refinancing Term Loans or (B)   Indebtedness for borrowed money (excluding Indebtedness permitted pursuant to   Subsection 8.1), the Borrower shall, in accordance with Subsection 4.4(g), prepay (or, exchange   for Rollover Indebtedness) the Term Loans (or, in the case of the Incurrence of any Specified   Refinancing Term Loans, the Tranche of Term Loans being refinanced) in an amount equal to   100.0% of the Net Cash Proceeds thereof (plus any portion of such Indebtedness which   represents Rollover Indebtedness) minus the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds applied (to the   extent the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries is required by the terms thereof) to prepay, repay   or purchase Pari Passu Indebtedness on a no more than pro rata basis with the Term Loans, in   each case with such prepayment to be made on or before the fifth Business Day following notice   given to each Lender of the Prepayment Date, as contemplated by Subsection 4.4(h). Each   prepayment of Initial Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(e)(ii)(A) or Subsection   4.4(e)(ii)(B), but not any other prepayment of Initial Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection   4.4(e), made prior to August 1, 2026 shall be accompanied by the payment of the applicable fee   designated by the Borrower in its sole discretion and as required by Subsection 4.5(b). Nothing   in this Subsection 4.4(e) shall limit the rights of the Agents and the Lenders set forth in Section   9.   (f) [Reserved].   (g) Subject to the last sentence of Subsection 4.4(h) and Subsection 4.4(k), each   prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e) (other than a prepayment with the   proceeds of Specified Refinancing Term Loans) shall be allocated pro rata among the Initial   Term Loans, the Incremental Term Loans, the Extended Term Loans and the Specified   Refinancing Term Loans; provided, that at the request of the Borrower, in lieu of such   application on a pro rata basis among all Tranches of Term Loans, such prepayment may be   applied to any Tranche of Term Loans so long as the maturity date of such Tranche of Term   Loans precedes the maturity date of each other Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding or, in   the event more than one Tranche of Term Loans shall have an identical maturity date that   precedes the maturity date of each other Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding, to such   Tranches on a pro rata basis. Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a)   shall be applied within each applicable Tranche of Term Loans to the respective installments of   principal thereof in the manner directed by the Borrower (or, if no such direction is given, in   direct order of maturity). Each prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e) shall be   applied within each applicable Tranche of Term Loans, first, to the accrued interest on the   principal amount of Term Loans being prepaid and, second, to the respective installments of   principal thereof in the manner directed by the Borrower (or, if no such direction is given in   direct order of maturity). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Subsection 4.4, a Lender   may, at its option, and if agreed by the Borrower, in connection with any prepayment of Term   Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a) or (e), exchange such Lender’s portion of the Term Loan to   be prepaid for Rollover Indebtedness, in lieu of such Lender’s pro rata portion of such     
  104            prepayment (and any such Term Loans so exchanged shall be deemed repaid for all purposes   under the Loan Documents).   (h) The Borrower shall give notice to the Administrative Agent of any   mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e), promptly (and in any   event within five Business Days) upon becoming obligated to make such prepayment. Such   notice shall state that the Borrower is offering to make or will make such mandatory prepayment   (i) in the case of mandatory prepayments pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e)(i), on or before the date   specified in Subsection 8.4(b) and (ii) in the case of mandatory prepayments pursuant to   Subsection 4.4(e)(ii), on or before the date specified in such clause, as the case may be (each, a   “Prepayment Date”). Subject to the following sentence, once given, such notice shall be   irrevocable and all amounts subject to such notice shall be due and payable on the Prepayment   Date (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this Subsection 4.4(h)). Any such   notice of prepayment pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e) may state that such notice is conditioned   upon the occurrence or non-occurrence of any event specified therein (including the   effectiveness of other credit facilities), in which case such notice may be revoked or extended by   the Borrower (by written notice to the Administrative Agent, on or prior to the specified effective   date) if such condition is not satisfied or waived. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of   such notice, the Administrative Agent shall immediately give notice to each Lender of the   prepayment and the Prepayment Date. The Borrower (in its sole discretion) may give each   Lender the option (in its sole discretion) to elect to decline any such prepayment (other than a   prepayment pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e)(ii), except as otherwise provided for in the last   sentence of Subsection 4.4(g)) by giving notice of such election in writing to the Administrative   Agent by 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the date that is three Business Days (or such   shorter period as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) prior to   the Prepayment Date. Upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of such notice, the   Administrative Agent shall immediately notify the Borrower of such election. Any amount so   declined by any Lender may, at the option of the Borrower, be applied to the payment or   prepayment of Indebtedness, including any Junior Debt, or otherwise be retained by the   Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries and/or applied by the Borrower or any of its Restricted   Subsidiaries in any manner not inconsistent with this Agreement.   (i) Without limitation of Subsections 2.8 and 8.1(b)(i), amounts prepaid on   account of Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a), (e) or (l) may not be reborrowed.   (j) If the Borrower determines in good faith, which determination shall be   conclusive, that repatriating any amounts attributable to Foreign Subsidiaries that are required to   be applied to prepay Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e)(i) (x) would result in material   adverse tax consequences to Topco or one of its Subsidiaries or (y) (1) could reasonably be   expected to be prohibited or delayed by or violate or conflict with applicable local law, (2) is   restricted by applicable organizational documents or any agreement, (3) is subject to other   organizational or administrative impediments from being repatriated to the United States or (4)   conflicts with the fiduciary duties of the applicable directors, or results in, or could reasonably be   expected to result in, a material risk of personal or criminal liability for any applicable officer,   director or manager, then, in each case the Borrower shall not be required to prepay such   amounts as required thereunder, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign   Subsidiary; provided that, in the case of this clause (y), the Borrower shall take commercially     
 
  105            reasonable actions to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably   required by the applicable local law, the applicable organizational documents or agreements, the   applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit repatriation of the   proceeds subject to such prepayments.   (k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Subsection 4.4 may be   amended (and the Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent to enter into   any such amendments) to the extent necessary to reflect differing amounts payable, and priorities   of payments, to Lenders participating in any new classes or tranches of Term Loans added   pursuant to Subsection 2.8, 2.10, 2.11 or 11.1(h), as applicable, or pursuant to any other credit or   letter of credit facility added pursuant to Subsection 2.8 or 11.1(e).   (l) Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary, so long as   no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is continuing, the   Borrower may prepay the outstanding Term Loans on the following basis:   (i) The Borrower shall have the right to make a voluntary prepayment of   Term Loans at a discount to par (such prepayment, the “Discounted Term Loan   Prepayment”) pursuant to a Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment, a   Borrower Solicitation of Discount Range Prepayment Offers, or a Borrower Solicitation   of Discounted Prepayment Offers, in each case made in accordance with this Subsection   4.4(l); provided that the Borrower shall not initiate any action under this Subsection 4.4(l)   in order to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment unless (1) at least ten Business   Days shall have passed since the consummation of the most recent Discounted Term   Loan Prepayment as a result of a prepayment made by the Borrower on the applicable   Discounted Prepayment Effective Date (or such shorter period as agreed to by the   Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) or (2) at least three Business Days   shall have passed since the date the Borrower was notified that no Lender was willing to   accept any prepayment of any Term Loan at the Specified Discount, within the Discount   Range or at any discount to par value, as applicable, or in the case of Borrower   Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers, the date of the Borrower’s election not to   accept any Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers made by a Lender (or such shorter   period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion). Each   Lender participating in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment acknowledges and agrees   that in connection with such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, (1) the Borrower then   may have, and later may come into possession of, information regarding the Term Loans   or the Loan Parties hereunder that is not known to such Lender and that may be material   to a decision by such Lender to participate in such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment   (“Excluded Information”), (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on   any Parent Entity, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any   of their respective Affiliates, has made its own analysis and determination to participate   in such Discounted Term Loan Prepayment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of   knowledge of the Excluded Information and (3) none of the Parent Entities, the   Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates   shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to   the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against any Parent Entity,   the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates,     
  106            under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded   Information. Each Lender participating in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment   further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the   Administrative Agent or the other Lenders. Any Term Loans prepaid pursuant to this   Subsection 4.4(l) shall be immediately and automatically cancelled.   (ii) Borrower Offer of Specified Discount Prepayment. (1) The Borrower   may from time to time offer to make a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment by providing   the Administrative Agent with three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be   agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice in the form of a   Specified Discount Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such offer shall be made   available, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Lender or to each Lender with   respect to any Tranche on an individual Tranche basis, (II) any such offer shall specify   the aggregate Outstanding Amount offered to be prepaid (the “Specified Discount   Prepayment Amount”), the Tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the specific   percentage discount to par value (the “Specified Discount”) of the Outstanding Amount   of such Term Loans to be prepaid, (III) the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount shall   be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and whole increments of   $500,000 in excess thereof (or such lower minimum amounts or multiples as agreed to by   the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), and (IV) each such offer shall   remain outstanding through the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date. The   Administrative Agent will promptly provide each relevant Lender with a copy of such   Specified Discount Prepayment Notice and a form of the Specified Discount Prepayment   Response to be completed and returned by each such Lender to the Administrative Agent   (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time, on the third Business   Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Lenders (or such later date   designated by the Administrative Agent and approved by the Borrower) (the “Specified   Discount Prepayment Response Date”).   (2) Each relevant Lender receiving such offer shall notify the   Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by the Specified Discount Prepayment   Response Date whether or not it agrees to accept a prepayment of any of its   relevant then outstanding Term Loans at the Specified Discount and, if so (such   accepting Lender, a “Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender”), the amount of   such Lender’s Outstanding Amount and Tranches of Term Loans to be prepaid at   such offered discount. Each acceptance of a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment   by a Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender shall be irrevocable. Any Lender   whose Specified Discount Prepayment Response is not received by the   Administrative Agent by the Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date shall   be deemed to have declined to accept such Borrower Offer of Specified Discount   Prepayment.   (3) If there is at least one Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender, the   Borrower will make prepayment of outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this   Subsection 4.4(l)(ii) to each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender in   accordance with the respective Outstanding Amount and Tranches of Term Loans   specified in such Lender’s Specified Discount Prepayment Response given     
 
  107            pursuant to the foregoing clause (2); provided that, if the aggregate Outstanding   Amount of Term Loans accepted for prepayment by all Discount Prepayment   Accepting Lenders exceeds the Specified Discount Prepayment Amount, such   prepayment shall be made pro rata among the Discount Prepayment Accepting   Lenders in accordance with the respective Outstanding Amounts accepted to be   prepaid by each such Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender and the   Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding   requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will   calculate such proration (the “Specified Discount Proration”). The Administrative   Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three Business Days following the   Specified Discount Prepayment Response Date, notify (I) the Borrower of the   respective Lenders’ responses to such offer, the Discounted Prepayment Effective   Date and the aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Discounted Term Loan   Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (II) each Lender of the Discounted   Prepayment Effective Date, and the aggregate Outstanding Amount and the   Tranches of all Term Loans to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such date,   and (III) each Discount Prepayment Accepting Lender of the Specified Discount   Proration, if any, and confirmation of the Outstanding Amount, Tranche and Type   of Term Loans of such Lender to be prepaid at the Specified Discount on such   date. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated in   the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and   binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in   such notice to the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the   Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Subsection 4.4(l)(vi)   below (subject to Subsection 4.4(l)(x) below).   (iii) Borrower Solicitation of Discount Range Prepayment Offers. (1) The   Borrower may from time to time solicit Discount Range Prepayment Offers by providing   the Administrative Agent with three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as may be   agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice in the form of a   Discount Range Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation shall be   extended, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Lender or to each Lender with   respect to any Tranche on an individual Tranche basis, (II) any such notice shall specify   the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount of the relevant Term Loans that the   Borrower is willing to prepay at a discount (the “Discount Range Prepayment Amount”),   the Tranches of Term Loans subject to such offer and the maximum and minimum   percentage discounts to par (the “Discount Range”) of the Outstanding Amount of such   Term Loans willing to be prepaid by the Borrower, (III) the Discount Range Prepayment   Amount shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and whole   increments of $500,000 in excess thereof (or such lower minimum amounts or multiples   as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), and (IV) each such   solicitation by the Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Discount Range   Prepayment Response Date. The Administrative Agent will promptly provide each   relevant Lender with a copy of such Discount Range Prepayment Notice and a form of   the Discount Range Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding relevant Lender to   the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 P.M., New York City   time, on the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant     
  108            Lenders (or such later date as may be designated by the Administrative Agent and   approved by the Borrower) (the “Discount Range Prepayment Response Date”). Each   relevant Lender’s Discount Range Prepayment Offer shall be irrevocable and shall   specify a discount to par within the Discount Range (the “Submitted Discount”) at which   such Lender is willing to allow prepayment of any or all of its then outstanding Term   Loans and the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Term   Loans such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Submitted Discount (the “Submitted   Amount”). Any Lender whose Discount Range Prepayment Offer is not received by the   Administrative Agent by the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date shall be   deemed to have declined to accept a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment of any of its   Term Loans at any discount to their par value within the Discount Range.   (2) The Administrative Agent shall review all Discount Range   Prepayment Offers received by it by the Discount Range Prepayment Response   Date and will determine (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to   rounding requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable   discretion) the Applicable Discount and Term Loans to be prepaid at such   Applicable Discount in accordance with this Subsection 4.4(l)(iii). The Borrower   agrees to accept on the Discount Range Prepayment Response Date all Discount   Range Prepayment Offers received by the Administrative Agent by the Discount   Range Prepayment Response Date, in the order from the Submitted Discount that   is the largest discount to par to the Submitted Discount that is the smallest   discount to par, up to and including the Submitted Discount that is the smallest   discount to par within the Discount Range (such Submitted Discount that is the   smallest discount to par being referred to as the “Applicable Discount”) which   yields a Discounted Term Loan Prepayment in an aggregate Outstanding Amount   equal to the lesser of (I) the Discount Range Prepayment Amount and (II) the sum   of all Submitted Amounts. Each Lender that has submitted a Discount Range   Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at a discount to par that is larger than or   equal to the Applicable Discount shall be deemed to have irrevocably consented   to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its Submitted Amount (subject to any   required proration pursuant to the following Subsection 4.4(l)(iii)(3)) at the   Applicable Discount (each such Lender, a “Participating Lender”).   (3) If there is at least one Participating Lender, the Borrower will   prepay the respective outstanding Term Loans of each Participating Lender in the   aggregate Outstanding Amount and of the Tranches specified in such Lender’s   Discount Range Prepayment Offer at the Applicable Discount; provided that if the   Submitted Amount by all Participating Lenders offered at a discount to par greater   than the Applicable Discount exceeds the Discount Range Prepayment Amount,   prepayment of the Outstanding Amount of the relevant Term Loans for those   Participating Lenders whose Submitted Discount is a discount to par greater than   or equal to the Applicable Discount (the “Identified Participating Lenders”) shall   be made pro rata among the Identified Participating Lenders in accordance with   the Submitted Amount of each such Identified Participating Lender and the   Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower and subject to rounding   requirements of the Administrative Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will     
 
  109            calculate such proration (the “Discount Range Proration”). The Administrative   Agent shall promptly, and in any case within three Business Days following the   Discount Range Prepayment Response Date, notify (w) the Borrower of the   respective Lenders’ responses to such solicitation, the Discounted Prepayment   Effective Date, the Applicable Discount, and the aggregate Outstanding Amount   of the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the Tranches to be prepaid, (x)   each Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date, the Applicable   Discount, and the aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of all Term Loans   to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, (y) each Participating   Lender of the aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Lender to be   prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such date, and (z) if applicable, each   Identified Participating Lender of the Discount Range Proration. Each   determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated in the foregoing   notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and binding for all   purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in such notice to   the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the Discounted   Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Subsection 4.4(l)(vi) below   (subject to Subsection 4.4(l)(x) below).   (iv) Borrower Solicitation of Discounted Prepayment Offers. (1) The   Borrower may from time to time solicit Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers by   providing the Administrative Agent with three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as   may be agreed by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion) notice in the   form of a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice; provided that (I) any such solicitation   shall be extended, at the sole discretion of the Borrower, to each Lender or to each   Lender with respect to any Tranche on an individual Tranche basis, (II) any such notice   shall specify the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans and the   Tranches of Term Loans the Borrower is willing to prepay at a discount (the “Solicited   Discounted Prepayment Amount”), (III) the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount   shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and whole increments   of $500,000 in excess thereof (or such lower minimum amounts or multiples as agreed to   by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion), and (IV) each such solicitation   by the Borrower shall remain outstanding through the Solicited Discounted Prepayment   Response Date. The Administrative Agent will promptly provide each relevant Lender   with a copy of such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice and a form of the Solicited   Discounted Prepayment Offer to be submitted by a responding Lender to the   Administrative Agent (or its delegate) by no later than 5:00 P.M., New York City time on   the third Business Day after the date of delivery of such notice to the relevant Lenders (or   such later date as may be designated by the Administrative Agent and approved by the   Borrower) (the “Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date”). Each Lender’s   Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer shall (x) be irrevocable, (y) remain outstanding   until the Acceptance Date and (z) specify both a discount to par (the “Offered Discount”)   at which such Lender is willing to allow prepayment of its then outstanding Term Loans   and the maximum aggregate Outstanding Amount and Tranches of such Term Loans (the   “Offered Amount”) such Lender is willing to have prepaid at the Offered Discount. Any   Lender whose Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer is not received by the   Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date shall be     
  110            deemed to have declined prepayment of any of its Term Loans at any discount to their par   value.   (2) The Administrative Agent shall promptly provide the Borrower   with a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers received by it by the   Solicited Discounted Prepayment Response Date. The Borrower shall review all   such Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers and select, at its sole discretion, the   smallest of the Offered Discounts specified by the relevant responding Lenders in   the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers that the Borrower is willing to accept   (the “Acceptable Discount”), if any; provided that the Acceptable Discount shall   not be an Offered Discount that is larger than the smallest Offered Discount for   which the sum of all Offered Amounts affiliated with Offered Discounts that are   larger than or equal to such smallest Offered Discount would, if purchased at such   smallest Offered Discount, yield an amount at least equal to the Solicited   Discounted Prepayment Amount. If the Borrower elects to accept any Offered   Discount as the Acceptable Discount, then as soon as practicable after the   determination of the Acceptable Discount, but in no event later than by the third   Business Day after the date of receipt by the Borrower from the Administrative   Agent of a copy of all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers pursuant to the   first sentence of this clause (2) (the “Acceptance Date”), the Borrower shall   submit an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice to the Administrative Agent setting   forth the Acceptable Discount. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to receive an   Acceptance and Prepayment Notice from the Borrower by the Acceptance Date,   the Borrower shall be deemed to have rejected all Solicited Discounted   Prepayment Offers.   (3) Based upon the Acceptable Discount and the Solicited Discounted   Prepayment Offers received by the Administrative Agent by the Solicited   Discounted Prepayment Response Date, within three Business Days after receipt   of an Acceptance and Prepayment Notice (the “Discounted Prepayment   Determination Date”), the Administrative Agent will determine (in consultation   with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative   Agent made in its reasonable discretion) the aggregate Outstanding Amount and   the Tranches of Term Loans (the “Acceptable Prepayment Amount”) to be   prepaid by the Borrower at the Acceptable Discount in accordance with this   Subsection 4.4(l)(iv). If the Borrower elects to accept any Acceptable Discount,   then the Borrower agrees to accept all Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offers   received by the Administrative Agent by the Solicited Discounted Prepayment   Response Date, in the order from largest Offered Discount to smallest Offered   Discount, up to and including the Acceptable Discount. Each Lender that has   submitted a Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer to accept prepayment at an   Offered Discount that is greater than or equal to the Acceptable Discount shall be   deemed to have irrevocably consented to prepayment of Term Loans equal to its   Offered Amount (subject to any required proration pursuant to the following   sentence) at the Acceptable Discount (each such Lender, a “Qualifying Lender”).   The Borrower shall prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection   4.4(l)(iv) to each Qualifying Lender in the aggregate Outstanding Amount and of     
 
  111            the Tranches specified in such Lender’s Solicited Discounted Prepayment Offer at   the Acceptable Discount; provided that if the aggregate Offered Amount by all   Qualifying Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the   Acceptable Discount exceeds the Solicited Discounted Prepayment Amount,   prepayment of the Outstanding Amount of the Term Loans for those Qualifying   Lenders whose Offered Discount is greater than or equal to the Acceptable   Discount (the “Identified Qualifying Lenders”) shall be made pro rata among the   Identified Qualifying Lenders in accordance with the Offered Amount of each   such Identified Qualifying Lender and the Administrative Agent (in consultation   with the Borrower and subject to rounding requirements of the Administrative   Agent made in its reasonable discretion) will calculate such proration (the   “Solicited Discount Proration”). On or prior to the Discounted Prepayment   Determination Date, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify (w) the   Borrower of the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date and Acceptable   Prepayment Amount comprising the Discounted Term Loan Prepayment and the   Tranches to be prepaid, (x) each Lender of the Discounted Prepayment Effective   Date, the Acceptable Discount, and the Acceptable Prepayment Amount of all   Term Loans and the Tranches to be prepaid at the Applicable Discount on such   date, (y) each Qualifying Lender of the aggregate Outstanding Amount and the   Tranches of such Lender to be prepaid at the Acceptable Discount on such date,   and (z) if applicable, each Identified Qualifying Lender of the Solicited Discount   Proration. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of the amounts stated   in the foregoing notices to the Borrower and Lenders shall be conclusive and   binding for all purposes absent manifest error. The payment amount specified in   such notice to the Borrower shall be due and payable by the Borrower on the   Discounted Prepayment Effective Date in accordance with Subsection 4.4(l)(vi)   below (subject to Subsection 4.4(l)(x) below).   (v) Expenses. In connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the   Borrower and the Lenders acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent may   require as a condition to any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment, the payment of   reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses from the Borrower in connection therewith.   (vi) Payment. If any Term Loan is prepaid in accordance with   Subsections 4.4(l)(ii) through (iv) above, the Borrower shall prepay such Term Loans on   the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. The Borrower shall make such prepayment   to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Discount Prepayment Accepting   Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying Lenders, as applicable, at the   Administrative Agent’s office specified in Subsection 11.2 in immediately available   funds not later than 11:00 A.M., New York City time, on the Discounted Prepayment   Effective Date and all such prepayments shall be applied to the remaining principal   installments of the Term Loans in inverse order of maturity. The Term Loans so prepaid   shall be accompanied by all accrued and unpaid interest on the par principal amount so   prepaid up to, but not including, the Discounted Prepayment Effective Date. Each   prepayment of the outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(l) shall be   paid to the Discount Prepayment Accepting Lenders, Participating Lenders, or Qualifying   Lenders, as applicable. The aggregate Outstanding Amount of the Tranches of the Term     
  112            Loans outstanding shall be deemed reduced by the full par value of the aggregate   Outstanding Amount of the Tranches of Term Loans prepaid on the Discounted   Prepayment Effective Date in any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment. The Lenders   hereby agree that, in connection with a prepayment of Term Loans pursuant to this   Subsection 4.4(l) and notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this   Agreement, (i) interest in respect of the Term Loans may be made on a non-pro rata basis   among the Lenders holding such Term Loans to reflect the payment of accrued interest to   certain Lenders as provided in this Subsection 4.4(l)(vi) and (ii) all subsequent   prepayments and repayments of the Term Loans (except as otherwise contemplated by   this Agreement) shall be made on a pro rata basis among the respective Lenders based   upon the then outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the   respective Lenders after giving effect to any prepayment pursuant to this Subsection   4.4(l) as if made at par. It is also understood and agreed that prepayments pursuant to   this Subsection 4.4(l) shall not be subject to Subsection 4.4(a), or, for the avoidance of   doubt, Subsection 11.7(a) or the pro rata allocation requirements of Subsection 4.8(a).   (vii) Other Procedures. To the extent not expressly provided for herein, each   Discounted Term Loan Prepayment shall be consummated pursuant to procedures   consistent with the provisions in this Subsection 4.4(l), established by the Administrative   Agent acting in its reasonable discretion and as reasonably agreed by the Borrower.   (viii) Notice. Notwithstanding anything in any Loan Document to the contrary,   for purposes of this Subsection 4.4(l), each notice or other communication required to be   delivered or otherwise provided to the Administrative Agent (or its delegate) shall be   deemed to have been given upon the Administrative Agent’s (or its delegate’s) actual   receipt during normal business hours of such notice or communication; provided that any   notice or communication actually received outside of normal business hours shall be   deemed to have been given as of the opening of business on the next Business Day.   (ix) Actions of Administrative Agent. Each of the Borrower and the Lenders   acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its   duties under this Subsection 4.4(l) by itself or through any Affiliate of the Administrative   Agent and expressly consents to any such delegation of duties by the Administrative   Agent to such Affiliate and the performance of such delegated duties by such Affiliate.   The exculpatory provisions in this Agreement shall apply to each Affiliate of the   Administrative Agent and its respective activities in connection with any Discounted   Term Loan Prepayment provided for in this Subsection 4.4(l) as well as to activities of   the Administrative Agent in connection with any Discounted Term Loan Prepayment   provided for in this Subsection 4.4(l).   (x) Revocation. The Borrower shall have the right, by written notice to the   Administrative Agent, to revoke in full (but not in part) its offer to make a Discounted   Term Loan Prepayment and rescind the applicable Specified Discount Prepayment   Notice, Discount Range Prepayment Notice or Solicited Discounted Prepayment Notice   therefor at its discretion at any time on or prior to the applicable Specified Discount   Prepayment Response Date (and if such offer is so revoked, any failure by the Borrower     
 
  113            to make any prepayment to a Lender pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(l) shall not constitute   a Default or Event of Default under Subsection 9.1 or otherwise).   (xi) No Obligation. This Subsection 4.4(l) shall not (i) require the Borrower to   undertake any prepayment pursuant to this Subsection 4.4(l) or (ii) limit or restrict the   Borrower from making voluntary prepayments of the Term Loans in accordance with the   other provisions of this Agreement.   (m) AHYDO Saver Payments. If the Initial Term Loans would otherwise   constitute an “applicable high yield discount obligation” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1)   of the Code, at the end of each tax accrual period ending after the fifth anniversary of the Closing   Date, the Borrower shall prepay in cash a portion of each Initial Term Loan then outstanding   equal to the “Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount” (as defined below) with respect   to such tax accrual period (each such prepayment, an “Initial Mandatory Principal   Prepayment”). The prepayment price for the portion of each Initial Term Loan prepaid pursuant   to an Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment shall be 100% of the principal amount of such   portion plus any accrued interest thereon on the date of such prepayment. The “Initial   Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount” with respect to a tax accrual period means the portion   of each Initial Term Loan required to be prepaid with respect to such tax accrual period so that   none of the outstanding Initial Term Loans is treated as an “applicable high yield discount   obligation” within the meaning of Section 163(i)(1) of the Code; provided that if there is   uncertainty (as determined by the Borrower in good faith, which determination shall be   conclusive) regarding the determination of the portion so required to be prepaid, such portion   shall be set at an amount not less than the amount the Borrower determines in good faith to be so   required, and each such determination by the Borrower shall be conclusive and binding, and such   portion shall constitute the Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount with respect to such   tax accrual period, for all purposes under this Agreement (regardless of any subsequent   determination that such portion may have exceeded the amount so required to be prepaid). For   the avoidance of doubt, the Initial Mandatory Principal Prepayment Amount with respect to a tax   accrual period shall represent the same percentage of the principal amount of each outstanding   Initial Term Loan with respect to such tax accrual period.   4.5 Administrative Agent’s Fee; Other Fees. (a) The Borrower agrees to pay   to the Administrative Agent the fees set forth in the second paragraph of the Fee Letter on the   payment dates set forth therein.   (b)   (i) If, prior to August 1, 2026, the Borrower makes (i) an optional   prepayment pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a) or (ii) a mandatory prepayment pursuant to   Subsection 4.4(e)(ii)(A) or Subsection 4.4(e)(ii)(B) of all or a portion of the Initial Term   Loans in an amount equal to the Net Cash Proceeds received by the Borrower or any   Restricted Subsidiary from its incurrence of new Indebtedness the proceeds of which are   required to be used to make such mandatory prepayment, then in the case of each of the   foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the   ratable account of each Lender holding such Initial Term Loans, a prepayment premium     
  114            equal to one of the following (without duplication and as the applicable prepayment   premium is designated by the Borrower in its sole discretion):   (1) if such prepayment or payment is made prior to August 1, 2024:   (A) the Make-Whole Amount; or   (B) 108.750% of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans   so prepaid; provided that (x) the principal amount of the Initial Term   Loans prepaid that are subject to the prepayment premium set forth in this   clause (b)(i)(1)(B) must be with funds in an equal aggregate amount (the   “Equity Redemption Amount”) not exceeding the aggregate proceeds of   one or more Equity Offerings, (y) the Borrower may elect for only up to   40.0% of the original aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans   (including the original aggregate principal amount of any Supplemental   Term Loans made under the Initial Term Loan Tranche) to be subject to   the prepayment premium set forth in this clause (b)(i)(1)(B) and (z) an   aggregate principal amount of Initial Term Loans equal to at least 50.0%   of the original aggregate principal amount of the Initial Term Loans   (including the original aggregate principal amount of any Supplemental   Term Loans made under the Initial Term Loan Tranche) must remain   outstanding immediately after each such prepayment of Initial Term Loans   that is subject to the prepayment premium set forth in this clause   (b)(i)(1)(B) (unless all Initial Term Loans are otherwise prepaid   substantially concurrently with the corresponding prepayment of Initial   Term Loans that is subject to the prepayment premium set forth in this   clause (b)(i)(1)(B)); provided, further, that any amount payable in any   such prepayment may be funded from any source (including amounts in   excess of the Equity Redemption Amount); provided, further, that any   notice of any such prepayment may be given prior to the completion of the   related Equity Offering, but in no event may be given more than 180 days   after the completion of the related Equity Offering;   (2) if such prepayment or payment is made on or after August 1, 2024   but prior to August 1, 2025, 106.563% of the principal amount of the Initial Term   Loans so prepaid; or   (3) if such prepayment or payment is made on or after August 1, 2025   but prior to August 1, 2026, 103.281% of the principal amount of the Initial Term   Loans so prepaid.   No premium will be applicable if any such prepayment is made on or after August   1, 2026.   (ii) If, prior to August 1, 2026, any Lender holding Initial Term Loans is   replaced pursuant to Subsection 2.10(e) or 11.1(g) in connection with any amendment of   this Agreement (including in connection with any refinancing transaction permitted under     
 
  115            Subsection 11.6(g) to replace the Initial Term Loans), such Lender (and not any Person   who replaces such Lender pursuant to Subsection 2.10(e) or 11.1(g)) shall receive a fee   equal to (x) if such prepayment or payment is made prior to August 1, 2024, the Make-   Whole Amount with respect to the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans of such   Lender assigned to a replacement Lender pursuant to Subsection 2.10(e) or 11.1(g), (y) if   such prepayment or payment is made on or after August 1, 2024 but prior to August 1,   2025, 106.563% of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans of such Lender   assigned to a replacement Lender pursuant to Subsection 2.10(e) or 11.1(g) and (z) if   such prepayment or payment is made on or after August 1, 2025 but prior to August 1,   2026, 103.281% of the principal amount of the Initial Term Loans of such Lender   assigned to a replacement Lender pursuant to Subsection 2.10(e) or 11.1(g). No premium   will be applicable if any such replacement is made on or after August 1, 2026.   4.6 Computation of Interest and Fees. (a) Interest (other than interest based   on the Base Rate) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed;   and interest based on the Base Rate shall be calculated on the basis of a 365-day year (or 366-day   year, as the case may be) for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as   practicable notify the Borrower and the affected Lenders of each determination of a Term SOFR   Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Alternate Base   Rate shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change   becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower   and the affected Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest   rate.   (b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant   to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the   Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the   Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower or such Lender a statement showing in   reasonable detail the calculations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest   rate pursuant to Subsection 4.1, excluding any Alternate Base Rate.   4.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If, prior to the first day of any   Interest Period (and, in the case of a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan, during the period that such   Loan is outstanding), the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall   be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the   relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Term SOFR   Rate with respect to any Term SOFR Rate Loan for such interest period (the “Affected Term   SOFR Rate”), the Daily Simple SOFR Rate with respect to any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan   for such interest period (the “Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate”), the Administrative Agent   shall give facsimile or telephonic notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders as soon as   practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (a) any Term SOFR Rate Loans the rate of interest   applicable to which is based on the Affected Term SOFR Rate requested to be made on the first   day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans and any Daily Simple SOFR Rate   Loans the rate of interest applicable to which is based on the Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate   shall be made as ABR Loans and (b) any Loans that were to have been converted on the first day   of such Interest Period to or continued as Term SOFR Rate Loans the rate of interest applicable   to which is based upon the Affected Term SOFR Rate shall be converted to or continued as ABR     
  116            Loans and any Loans that were to have been converted to Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans the   rate of interest applicable to which is based upon the Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate shall be   converted to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent, no   further Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, the rate of interest applicable   to which is based upon the Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate or Affected Term SOFR Rate,   shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert ABR Loans   to Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans, the rate of interest applicable to   which is based upon the Affected Daily Simple SOFR Rate or Affected Term SOFR Rate.   (b) In connection with the use, implementation or administration of Term SOFR   Rate or SOFR, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make the Benchmark   Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time with the consent of the Borrower and,   notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any   amendments adopting or implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will   become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or   any other Loan Document. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the   Lenders of the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.   4.8 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.   (a) Except as expressly otherwise provided herein, each payment (including   each prepayment, but excluding payments made pursuant to Subsection 2.8, 2.9, 2.10, 2.11,   4.5(b), 4.9, 4.10, 4.11, 4.13(d), 11.1(g) or 11.6) by the Borrower on account of principal of and   interest on account of any Loans of a given Tranche (other than (v) payments in respect of any   difference in the Applicable Margin, Term SOFR Rate or Alternate Base Rate in respect of any   Tranche, (w) any payments pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e) to the extent declined by any Lender in   accordance with Subsection 4.4(h), (x) any payments pursuant to Subsection 4.4(l) which shall   be allocated as set forth in Subsection 4.4(l) and (y) any prepayments pursuant to   Subsection 11.6(h)(i)(2)) shall be allocated by the Administrative Agent pro rata according to the   respective outstanding principal amounts of such Loans of such Tranche then held by the   respective Lenders; provided that a Lender may, at its option, and if agreed by the Borrower,   exchange such Lender’s portion of a Term Loan to be prepaid for Rollover Indebtedness, in lieu   of such Lender’s pro rata portion of such prepayment, pursuant to the last sentence of Subsection   4.4(g). All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether   on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without set-off or counterclaim   and shall be made on or 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 2:00 P.M., New   York City time), on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent for the account of the   Lenders holding the relevant Loans, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent, or the Other   Representatives, as the case may be, at the Administrative Agent’s office specified in   Subsection 11.2, in Dollars in immediately available funds. Payments received by the   Administrative Agent after such time shall be deemed to have been received on the next   Business Day. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to such Lenders or   Other Representatives, as the case may be, if any such payment is received prior to 2:00 P.M.,   New York City time, on a Business Day, in like funds as received prior to the end of such   Business Day and otherwise the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to such   Lenders or Other Representatives, as the case may be, on the next succeeding Business Day. If     
 
  117            any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term   SOFR Rate Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of   such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to   payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such   extension. If any payment on a Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loan or Term SOFR Rate Loan   becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity of such payment shall   be extended to the next succeeding Business Day (and, with respect to payments of principal,   interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension) unless the   result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which   event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. This Subsection   4.8(a) may be amended in accordance with Subsection 11.1(d) to the extent necessary to reflect   differing amounts payable, and priorities of payments, to Lenders participating in any new   Tranches added pursuant to Subsections 2.8, 2.10, 2.11 and 11.1(h), as applicable, or pursuant to   any other credit facility added pursuant to Subsection 2.8 or 11.1(e).   (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any   Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its   share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may   assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the   Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower in   respect of such borrowing a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the   Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall   pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon at a rate equal to   the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate for the period until such Lender makes such   amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative   Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this Subsection 4.8(b)   shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is   not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days of   such Borrowing Date, (x) the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of the failure of   such Lender to make such amount available to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative   Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum   applicable to ABR Loans hereunder on demand from the Borrower; provided that the foregoing   notice and recovery provisions shall not apply to the funding of Initial Term Loans on the   Closing Date and (y) then the Borrower may, without waiving or limiting any rights or remedies   it may have against such Lender hereunder or under applicable law or otherwise, borrow a like   amount on an unsecured basis from any commercial bank for a period ending on the date upon   which such Lender does in fact make such borrowing available.   4.9 Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of   or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof in each   case occurring after the Closing Date shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain   any Daily Simple SOFR Rate Loans or Term SOFR Rate Loans as contemplated by this   Agreement (“Affected Loans”), (a) such Lender shall promptly give written notice of such   circumstances to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be withdrawn   whenever such circumstances no longer exist), (b) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to   make Affected Loans, continue Affected Loans as such and convert an ABR Loan to an Affected   Loan shall forthwith be cancelled and, until such time as it shall no longer be unlawful for such     
  118            Lender to make or maintain such Affected Loans, such Lender shall then have a commitment   only to make an ABR Loan when an Affected Loan is requested, (c) such Lender’s Loans then   outstanding as Affected Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans on the   respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Affected Loans or   within such earlier period as required by law and (d) such Lender’s then outstanding Affected   Loans, if any, not converted to ABR Loans pursuant to clause (c) of this Subsection 4.9 shall, at   the option of the Borrower (i) be prepaid with accrued interest thereon on the last day of the then   current Interest Period with respect thereto (or such earlier date as may be required by any such   Requirement of Law) or (ii) bear interest at an alternate rate which reflects such Lender’s cost of   funding such Loans (which rate, if less than zero, shall be deemed zero for purposes of this   Agreement), as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent, plus the Applicable Margin   hereunder.   4.10 Requirements of Law. (a) [Reserved].   (b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in   any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or in the interpretation or   application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender   with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the   force of law) from any Governmental Authority, in each case, made subsequent to the Closing   Date, does or shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such   corporation’s capital as a consequence of such Lender’s obligations hereunder to a level below   that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such change or   compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect   to capital adequacy or liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from   time to time, within ten Business Days after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (through   the Administrative Agent) of a written request therefor certifying (x) that one of the events   described in this clause (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such   event, (y) as to the reduction of the rate of return on capital resulting from such event and (z) as   to the additional amount or amounts demanded by such Lender or corporation and a reasonably   detailed explanation of the calculation thereof, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such   additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or corporation for such reduction.   Such a certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Subsection 4.10(b)   submitted by such Lender, through the Administrative Agent, to the Borrower shall be   conclusive in the absence of manifest error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this   Subsection 4.10(b), the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this   Subsection 4.10(b) (i) for any amounts incurred more than six months prior to the date that such   Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor or   (ii) for any amounts, if such Lender is applying this provision to the Borrower in a manner that is   inconsistent with its application of “increased cost” or other similar provisions under other   syndicated credit agreements to similarly situated borrowers. This covenant shall survive the   termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable   hereunder.   (c) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Dodd Frank Wall Street   Reform and Consumer Protection Act, and all requests, rules, regulations, guidelines and   directives promulgated thereunder or issued in connection therewith, and all requests, rules,     
 
  119            guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel   Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor authority) or the United States or foreign   regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, in each case shall be deemed to have   been enacted, adopted or issued, as applicable, subsequent to the Closing Date for all purposes   herein.   4.11 Taxes. (a) Except as provided below in this Subsection 4.11 or as   required by law (which for purposes of this Subsection 4.11 shall include FATCA), all payments   made by the Borrower or the Agents under this Agreement and any Notes shall be made free and   clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes; provided that if   any Non-Excluded Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by the Borrower   to any Agent or any Lender hereunder or under any Notes, the amounts so payable by the   Borrower shall be increased to the extent necessary to yield to such Agent or such Lender (after   payment of all Non-Excluded Taxes) interest or any such other amounts payable hereunder at the   rates or in the amounts specified in this Agreement; provided, however, that the Borrower shall   be entitled to deduct and withhold, and the Borrower shall not be required to indemnify for, any   Non-Excluded Taxes, and any such amounts payable by the Borrower to or for the account of   any Agent or Lender shall not be increased (x) if such Agent or Lender fails to comply with the   requirements of clause (b), (c), (d) or (e) of this Subsection 4.11 or with the requirements of   Subsection 4.13, or (y) with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed in connection with the   payment of any fees paid under this Agreement unless such Non-Excluded Taxes are imposed as   a result of a Change in Law, or (z) with respect to any Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the   United States or any state or political subdivision thereof, unless such Non-Excluded Taxes are   imposed as a result of a change in treaty, law or regulation that occurred after such Agent   became an Agent hereunder or such Lender became a Lender hereunder (or, if such Agent or   Lender is a non-U.S. intermediary or flow-through entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes,   after the relevant beneficiary or member of such Agent or Lender became such a beneficiary or   member, if later) (any such change, at such time, a “Change in Law”). Whenever any Non-   Excluded Taxes are payable by the Borrower, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower   shall send to the Administrative Agent for its own account or for the account of the respective   Lender or Agent, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by   the Borrower showing payment thereof. If the Borrower fails to pay any Non-Excluded Taxes   when due to the appropriate Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law or the   Borrower fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required   documentary evidence, the Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and   the Agents for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the   Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure; provided, however, that the   Borrower shall not be required to make any such indemnification payments if any of the   circumstances described in clause (x), (y) or (z) of this Section 4.11(a) are met. The agreements   in this Subsection 4.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the   Term Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.   (b) Each Agent and each Lender that is not a United States Person shall:   (i) (1) on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower under this   Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Agent or Lender, deliver to the   Borrower and the Administrative Agent (A) two accurate and complete original signed     
  120            Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN-E (certifying that it is a resident of the   applicable country within the meaning of the income tax treaty between the United States   and that country) or Forms W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, as the case may be, in   each case certifying that it is entitled to receive all payments under this Agreement and   any Notes without deduction or withholding of any U.S. federal income taxes, and (B)   such other forms, documentation or certifications, as the case may be, certifying that it is   entitled to an exemption from United States backup withholding tax with respect to   payments under this Agreement and any Notes;   (2) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further   accurate and complete original signed forms or certifications provided in   Subsection 4.11(b)(i)(1) on or before the date that any such form or certification   expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any event requiring a   change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it to the   Borrower;   (3) obtain such extensions of time for filing and completing such   forms or certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the   Administrative Agent; and   (4) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable   request by the Borrower, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such   other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal   entitlement of such Agent or such Lender to an exemption from, or reduction of,   withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement and any Notes,   provided that, in determining the reasonableness of a request under this clause (4),   such Lender shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the extent unreimbursed by   any Loan Party) which would be imposed on such Lender of complying with such   request; or   (ii) in the case of any such Lender that is not a “bank” within the meaning of   Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code and is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest   exemption”,   (1) represent to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is   not (A) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10   percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B)   of the Code, or (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section   881(c)(3)(C) of the Code;   (2) on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower under this   Agreement or any Notes to, or for the account of, such Lender, deliver to the   Borrower and the Administrative Agent, (A) two certificates substantially in the   form of Exhibit D hereto (any such certificate a “U.S. Tax Compliance   Certificate”) and (B) two accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue   Service Forms W-8BEN-E, or successor applicable form, certifying to such   Lender’s legal entitlement at the date of such form to an exemption from U.S.

  122            applicable form, as the case may be, in each case certifying that each such   beneficiary or member is entitled to receive all payments under this   Agreement and any Notes without deduction or withholding of any U.S.   federal income taxes and (II) such other forms, documentation or   certifications, as the case may be, certifying that each such beneficiary or   member is entitled to an exemption from United States backup   withholding tax with respect to all payments under this Agreement and   any Notes; and   (B) with respect to each beneficiary or member of such Lender   that is claiming the so-called “portfolio interest exemption”, (I) represent   to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such beneficiary or   member is not (1) a bank within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of   the Code, (2) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the   meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or (3) a “controlled foreign   corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (II) also   deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two U.S. Tax   Compliance Certificates from each beneficiary or member and two   accurate and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-   8BEN-E, or successor applicable form, certifying to such beneficiary’s or   member’s legal entitlement at the date of such certificate to an exemption   from U.S. withholding tax under the provisions of Section 871(h) or   Section 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments to be made under this   Agreement and any Notes, and (III) also deliver to the Borrower and the   Administrative Agent such other forms, documentation or certifications, as   the case may be, certifying that it is entitled to an exemption from United   States backup withholding tax with respect to payments under this   Agreement and any Notes;   (2) deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two further   accurate and complete original signed forms, certificates or certifications referred   to above on or before the date any such form, certificate or certification expires or   becomes obsolete, or any beneficiary or member changes, and after the   occurrence of any event requiring a change in the most recently provided form,   certificate or certification and obtain such extensions of time reasonably requested   by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent for filing and completing such   forms, certificates or certifications; and   (3) deliver, to the extent legally entitled to do so, upon reasonable   request by the Borrower, to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent such   other forms as may be reasonably required in order to establish the legal   entitlement of such Agent or Lender (or beneficiary or member) to an exemption   from, or reduction of, withholding with respect to payments under this Agreement   and any Notes, provided that in determining the reasonableness of a request under   this clause (3) such Agent or Lender shall be entitled to consider the cost (to the   extent unreimbursed by the Borrower) which would be imposed on such Agent or   Lender (or beneficiary or member) of complying with such request;     
 
  123            unless, in any such case (other than with respect to United States backup withholding tax), there   has been a Change in Law which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent   such Agent or such Lender (or such beneficiary or member) from duly completing and delivering   any such form with respect to it and such Agent or such Lender so advises the Borrower and the   Administrative Agent.   (c) Each Lender and each Agent, in each case that is a United States Person,   shall, on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes   to such Lender or Agent, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and   complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-9, or successor applicable form,   certifying that such Lender or Agent is a United States Person and that such Lender or Agent is   entitled to complete exemption from United States backup withholding tax.   (d) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent is not a United   States Person, on or before the date of any payment by the Borrower under this Agreement or   any Notes to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent shall:   (i) deliver to the Borrower (A) two accurate and complete original signed   Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8ECI, or successor applicable form, with respect to   any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for its own account, (B) two accurate   and complete original signed Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8IMY, or successor   applicable form, with respect to any amounts payable to the Administrative Agent for the   account of others, certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives   for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or   business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement   with the Borrower to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the   Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a   U.S. person with respect to such payments as contemplated by U.S. Treasury Regulation   § 1.1441-1(b)(2)(iv)) and (C) such other forms or certifications as may be sufficient   under applicable law to establish that the Administrative Agent is entitled to receive any   payment by the Borrower under this Agreement or any Notes (whether for its own   account or for the account of others) without deduction or withholding of any U.S.   federal income taxes;   (ii) deliver to the Borrower two further accurate and complete original signed   forms or certifications provided in Subsection 4.11(d)(i) on or before the date that any   such form or certification expires or becomes obsolete and after the occurrence of any   event requiring a change in the most recent form or certificate previously delivered by it   to the Borrower; and   (iii) obtain such extensions of time for filing and completing such forms or   certifications as may reasonably be requested by the Borrower or the Administrative   Agent;   unless in any such case (other than with respect to United States backup withholding tax) there   has been a Change in Law which renders all such forms inapplicable or which would prevent the     
  124            Administrative Agent from duly completing and delivering any such form with respect to it and   the Administrative Agent so advises the Borrower.   (e) If a payment made to an Agent or a Lender under any Loan Document would   be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Agent or such Lender   were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Agent or such   Lender shall deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, at the time or times   prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or   the Borrower, such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional   documentation reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower as may be   necessary for the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to comply with their respective   obligations (including any applicable reporting requirements) under FATCA, to determine   whether such Agent or such Lender has complied with such Agent’s or such Lender’s obligations   under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For the   avoidance of doubt, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be permitted to withhold   any Taxes imposed by FATCA.   4.12 [Reserved].   4.13 Certain Rules Relating to the Payment of Additional Amounts. (a) Upon   the request, and at the expense of the Borrower, each Lender and Agent to which the Borrower is   required to pay any additional amount pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11, and any Participant in   respect of whose participation such payment is required, shall reasonably afford the Borrower the   opportunity to contest, and reasonably cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition   of any Non-Excluded Tax giving rise to such payment; provided that (i) such Lender or Agent   shall not be required to afford the Borrower the opportunity to so contest unless the Borrower   shall have confirmed in writing to such Lender or Agent its obligation to pay such amounts   pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Borrower shall reimburse such Lender or Agent for its   reasonable attorneys’ and accountants’ fees and disbursements incurred in so cooperating with   the Borrower in contesting the imposition of such Non-Excluded Tax; provided, however, that   notwithstanding the foregoing no Lender or Agent shall be required to afford the Borrower the   opportunity to contest, or cooperate with the Borrower in contesting, the imposition of any Non-   Excluded Taxes, if such Lender or Agent in its reasonable discretion in good faith determines   that to do so would have an adverse effect on it.   (b) If a Lender changes its applicable lending office (other than (i) pursuant to   clause (c) below or (ii) after an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) has   occurred and is continuing) and the effect of such change, as of the date of such change, would   be to cause the Borrower to become obligated to pay any additional amount under Subsection   4.10 or 4.11, the Borrower shall not be obligated to pay such additional amount.   (c) If a condition or an event occurs which would, or would upon the passage of   time or giving of notice, result in the payment of any additional amount to any Lender or Agent   by the Borrower pursuant to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or result in Affected Loans or commitments   to make Affected Loans being automatically converted to ABR Loans or commitments to make   ABR Loans, as the case may be, pursuant to Subsection 4.9, such Lender or Agent shall   promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and such Lender or Agent shall take     
 
  125            such steps as may reasonably be available to it to mitigate the effects of such condition or event   (which shall include efforts to rebook the Loans and Commitments held by such Lender at   another lending office, or through another branch or an affiliate, of such Lender); provided that   such Lender or Agent shall not be required to take any step that, in its reasonable judgment,   would be materially disadvantageous to its business or operations or would require it to incur   additional costs (unless the Borrower agrees to reimburse such Lender or Agent for the   reasonable incremental out-of-pocket costs thereof).   (d) If the Borrower shall become obligated to pay additional amounts pursuant   to Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 and any affected Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary   to avoid the need for payments under Subsection 4.10 or 4.11 or if Affected Loans or   commitments to make Affected Loans are automatically converted to ABR Loans or   commitments to make ABR Loans, as the case may be, under Subsection 4.9 and any affected   Lender shall not have promptly taken steps necessary to avoid the need for such conversion   under Subsection 4.9, the Borrower shall have the right, for so long as such obligation remains,   (i) with the assistance of the Administrative Agent to seek one or more substitute Lenders   reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower to purchase the affected   Loan or Commitment, in whole or in part, at an aggregate price no less than such Loan’s or   Commitment’s principal amount plus accrued interest, and assume the affected obligations under   this Agreement, or (ii) so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) then   exists or will exist immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, upon notice to   the Administrative Agent to prepay the affected Loan, in whole or in part, without premium or   penalty. In the case of the substitution of a Lender, then, the Borrower, the Administrative   Agent, the affected Lender, and any substitute Lender shall execute and deliver an appropriately   completed Assignment and Acceptance pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b) to effect the assignment   of rights to, and the assumption of obligations by, the substitute Lender; provided that any fees   required to be paid by Subsection 11.6(b) in connection with such assignment shall be paid by   the Borrower or the substitute Lender. In the case of a prepayment of an affected Loan, the   amount specified in the notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein, together   with any accrued interest to such date on the amount prepaid. In the case of each of the   substitution of a Lender and of the prepayment of an affected Loan, the Borrower shall first pay   the affected Lender any additional amounts owing under Subsections 4.10 and 4.11 (as well as   any commitment fees and other amounts then due and owing to such Lender, including any   amounts under this Subsection 4.13) prior to such substitution or prepayment. In the case of the   substitution of a Lender pursuant to this Subsection 4.13(d), if the Lender being replaced does   not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and   Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary to reflect such replacement by the later of   (a) the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and   Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which all obligations of the   Borrower owing to such replaced Lender relating to the Loans and participations so assigned   shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender and/or the Borrower to such Lender being replaced,   then the Lender being replaced shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment   and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of such date and the Borrower shall be   entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such   other documentation on behalf of such Lender.     
  126            (e) If any Agent or any Lender receives a refund directly attributable to Taxes   for which the Borrower has made additional payments pursuant to Subsection 4.10(a) or 4.11(a),   such Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, shall promptly pay such refund (together with   any interest with respect thereto received from the relevant taxing authority, but net of any   reasonable cost incurred in connection therewith) to the Borrower; provided, however, that the   Borrower agrees promptly to return such refund (together with any interest with respect thereto   due to the relevant taxing authority) to such Agent or the applicable Lender, as the case may be,   upon receipt of a notice that such refund is required to be repaid to the relevant taxing authority.   (f) The obligations of any Agent, Lender or Participant under this   Subsection 4.13 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Term   Loans and all amounts payable hereunder.   SECTION 5      Representations and Warranties   To induce the Administrative Agent and each Lender to make the Extensions of   Credit requested to be made by it on the Closing Date, the Borrower with respect to itself and its   Restricted Subsidiaries, hereby represents and warrants, on the Closing Date, after giving effect   to the Transactions (solely to the extent required to be true and correct for such Extension of   Credit pursuant to Subsection 6.1), to the Administrative Agent and each Lender that:   5.1 Financial Condition. (a) (i) The audited consolidated balance sheets and   related statements of income or operations, stockholders’ equity and cash flows of Cornerstone   Building Brands for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2020 and December 31, 2021 and (ii)   the unaudited consolidated balance sheets and related statements of income or operations and   cash flows of Cornerstone Building Brands for the fiscal quarter ended April 2, 2022, present   fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition as at such dates, and the statements of   operations or income, stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the periods then ended, of   Cornerstone Building Brands. All such financial statements, including the related schedules and   notes thereto, have been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout the   periods covered thereby (except as approved by a Responsible Officer, and disclosed in any such   schedules and notes).   (b) As of the Closing Date, except as set forth in the financial statements   referred to in Subsection 5.1(a), there are no liabilities of any Loan Party of any kind, whether   accrued, contingent, absolute, determined, determinable or otherwise, which would reasonably   be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect.   (c) The unaudited pro forma consolidated balance sheet and related unaudited   pro forma consolidated statement of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries as of and for   the 12-month period ending April 2, 2022, adjusted to give effect (as if such events had occurred   on such date for purposes of the balance sheet and at the beginning of such period, for purposes   of the statement of operations), to the consummation of the Transactions, and the Extension of   Credit hereunder on the Closing Date, were prepared from the historical financial statements of     
 
  127            Cornerstone Building Brands and were prepared in good faith, based on assumptions that were   believed by management to be reasonable at the time of preparation thereof.   (d) The Projections have been prepared by management of the Borrower in good   faith based upon assumptions believed by management to be reasonable at the time of   preparation thereof (it being understood that such Projections, and the assumptions on which   they were based, may or may not prove to be correct).   5.2 No Change; Solvent.

If the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and/or other   Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary validly tendered and not withdrawn (or   otherwise subject to purchase, redemption or repayment) in connection with an offer pursuant to   clause (ii) of paragraphs (b) and (c) above exceeds the Excess Proceeds, the Excess Proceeds will   be apportioned between such Term Loans and such other Indebtedness of the Borrower or a   Restricted Subsidiary, with the portion of the Excess Proceeds payable in respect of such Term   Loans to equal the lesser of (x) the Excess Proceeds amount multiplied by a fraction, the   numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such Term Loans and the denominator   of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans and the outstanding   principal amount of the relevant other Indebtedness of the Borrower or a Restricted Subsidiary,   and (y) the aggregate principal amount of Term Loans validly tendered and not withdrawn.     
 
  163            (e) For the purposes of Subsection 8.4(a), the following are deemed to be cash:   (1) Temporary Cash Investments and Cash Equivalents, (2) the assumption of Indebtedness of   the Borrower (other than Disqualified Stock of the Borrower) or any Restricted Subsidiary and   the release of the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary from all liability on payment of the   principal amount of such Indebtedness in connection with such Asset Disposition, (3)   Indebtedness of any Restricted Subsidiary that is no longer a Restricted Subsidiary as a result of   such Asset Disposition, to the extent that the Borrower and each other Restricted Subsidiary are   released from any Guarantee of payment of the principal amount of such Indebtedness in   connection with such Asset Disposition, (4) securities received by the Borrower or any   Restricted Subsidiary from the transferee that are converted by the Borrower or such Restricted   Subsidiary into cash within 180 days, (5) consideration consisting of Indebtedness of the   Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary, (6) Additional Assets, and (7) any Designated Noncash   Consideration received by the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries in an Asset   Disposition having an aggregate fair market value (as determined by the Borrower in good faith,   which determination shall be conclusive), taken together with all other Designated Noncash   Consideration received pursuant to this clause (7), not to exceed an aggregate amount at any time   outstanding equal to the greater of $265,000,000 and 30.00% of Four Quarter Consolidated   EBITDA (with the fair market value (as determined by the Borrower in good faith, which   determination shall be conclusive) of each item of Designated Noncash Consideration being   measured on the date a legally binding commitment for such Asset Disposition (or, if later, for   the payment of such item) was entered into and without giving effect to subsequent changes in   value).   (f) For the purposes of paragraphs (b) and (c) above, (i) in the event of any   Asset Disposition of Capital Stock of a Person that has any right, title or interest to or in assets   constituting both Collateral and Other Assets, such Asset Disposition shall instead be deemed to   be an Asset Disposition of such assets, and the Borrower shall allocate the Net Available Cash   from such Asset Disposition between the Collateral and the Other Assets in proportion to their   respective fair market values as determined by the Borrower in good faith (which determination   shall be conclusive), (ii) any Asset Disposition of Capital Stock of any Person that has any right,   title or interest to or in assets constituting only Other Assets will be subject to paragraph (c) and   not paragraph (b) of this covenant, and (iii) any Asset Disposition of Capital Stock of any Person   that has any right, title or interest to or in assets constituting only Collateral will be subject to   paragraph (b) and not paragraph (c) of Subsection 8.4.   8.5 Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates.

For purposes   of this Subsection 8.5(a), any Affiliate Transaction shall be deemed to have satisfied the     
  164            requirements set forth in this Subsection 8.5(a) if (x) such Affiliate Transaction is approved by a   majority of the Disinterested Directors or (y) in the event there are no Disinterested Directors, a   fairness opinion is provided by a nationally recognized appraisal or investment banking firm   with respect to such Affiliate Transaction.   (b) The provisions of Subsection 8.5(a) will not apply to:   (i) any Restricted Payment Transaction;   (ii) (1) the entering into, maintaining or performance of any employment or   consulting contract, collective bargaining agreement, benefit plan, program or   arrangement, related trust agreement or any other similar arrangement for or with any   current or former management member, employee, officer or director or consultant of or   to the Borrower, any Restricted Subsidiary or any Parent Entity or IPO Vehicle   heretofore or hereafter entered into in the ordinary course of business, including vacation,   health, insurance, deferred compensation, severance, retirement, savings or other similar   plans, programs or arrangements, (2) payments, compensation, performance of   indemnification or contribution obligations, the making or cancellation of loans in the   ordinary course of business to any such management members, employees, officers,   directors or consultants, (3) any issuance, grant or award of stock, options, other equity   related interests or other securities, to any such management members, employees,   officers, directors or consultants, (4) the payment of reasonable fees to directors of the   Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent Entity or IPO Vehicle (as determined in   good faith by the Borrower, such Subsidiary or such Parent Entity or IPO Vehicle, which   determination shall be conclusive), (5) any transaction with an officer or director of the   Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or any Parent Entity in the ordinary course of   business not involving more than $100,000 in any one case or (6) Management Advances   and payments in respect thereof (or in reimbursement of any expenses referred to in the   definition of such term);   (iii) any transaction between or among any of the Borrower, one or more   Restricted Subsidiaries, or one or more Special Purpose Entities;   (iv) any transaction arising out of agreements or instruments in existence on   the Closing Date (other than the Tax Sharing Agreement and any Transaction Agreement   referred to in Subsection 8.5(b)(vii)), or any amendment, supplement, waiver or other   modification thereto (so long as such amendment, supplement, waiver or other   modification is not disadvantageous in any material respect in the good faith judgment of   the Borrower, whose determination shall be conclusive, to the Lenders when taken as a   whole as compared to the applicable agreement or instrument as in effect on the Closing   Date), and any payments made pursuant thereto;   (v) any transaction in the ordinary course of business on terms that are fair to   the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries in the reasonable determination of the Board   of Directors or senior management of the Borrower, or are not materially less favorable   to the Borrower or the relevant Restricted Subsidiary than those that could be obtained at   the time in a transaction with a Person who is not an Affiliate of the Borrower;

The Borrower shall not, and shall not permit any   Restricted Subsidiary to, directly or indirectly, create or permit to exist any Lien (other than   Permitted Liens) on any of its property or assets (including Capital Stock of any other Person),   whether owned on the Closing Date or thereafter acquired, securing any Indebtedness (the   “Initial Lien”), unless (a) in the case of an Initial Lien on any Collateral, such Initial Lien   expressly has Junior Lien Priority on such Collateral in relation to the Term Loan Facility   Obligations or (b) in the case of an Initial Lien on any other asset or property,   contemporaneously therewith effective provision is made to secure the Term Loan Facility   Obligations equally and ratably with (or on a senior basis to, in the case of Subordinated     
  166            Obligations or Guarantor Subordinated Obligations) such obligation for so long as such   obligation is so secured by such Initial Lien. Any such Lien thereby created in favor of the Term   Loan Facility Obligations will be automatically and unconditionally released and discharged   upon (i) the release and discharge of the Initial Lien to which it relates, (ii) in the case of any   such Lien in favor of any Subsidiary Guaranty, the termination and discharge of such Subsidiary   Guaranty in accordance with the terms thereof or (iii) any sale, exchange or transfer (other than a   transfer constituting a transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower that is   governed by the provisions of Subsection 8.7) to any Person not an Affiliate of the Borrower of   the property or assets secured by such Initial Lien, or of all of the Capital Stock held by the   Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary in, or all or substantially all the assets of, any Restricted   Subsidiary creating such Initial Lien.   8.7 Limitation on Fundamental Changes. (a) The Borrower will not   consolidate with or merge with or into, or convey, lease or otherwise transfer all or substantially   all its assets to, any Person, unless:   (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee Person (the “Successor Borrower”)   will be a Person organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America,   any State thereof or the District of Columbia and the Successor Borrower (if not the   Borrower) will expressly assume all the obligations of the Borrower under this   Agreement and the Loan Documents to which it is a party by executing and delivering to   the Administrative Agent a joinder or one or more other documents or instruments in   form reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent;   (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction (and treating any   Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Successor Borrower or any Restricted   Subsidiary as a result of such transaction as having been Incurred by the Successor   Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such transaction), no Default will   have occurred and be continuing;   (iii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, either (A) the   Borrower (or, if applicable, the Successor Borrower with respect thereto) could Incur at   least $1.00 of additional Indebtedness pursuant to Subsection 8.1(a) or Subsection   8.1(b)(xvii), (B) the Consolidated Coverage Ratio of the Borrower (or, if applicable, the   Successor Borrower with respect thereto) would equal or exceed the Consolidated   Coverage Ratio of the Borrower immediately prior to giving effect to such transaction or   (C) the Consolidated Total Leverage Ratio of the Borrower (or, if applicable, the   Successor Borrower with respect thereto) would equal or be less than the Consolidated   Total Leverage Ratio of the Borrower immediately prior to giving effect to such   transaction;   (iv) each Subsidiary Guarantor (other than (x) any Subsidiary Guarantor that   will be released from its obligations under its Subsidiary Guaranty in connection with   such transaction and (y) any party to any such consolidation or merger) shall have   delivered a joinder or other document or instrument in form reasonably satisfactory to the   Administrative Agent, confirming its Subsidiary Guaranty (other than any Subsidiary   Guaranty that will be discharged or terminated in connection with such transaction); and

Any   property and assets of any Person that is so consolidated or merged with the Borrower, to the   extent of a type that would constitute Collateral under the Security Documents (excluding, for   the avoidance of doubt, any Excluded Assets), shall be treated as After Acquired Property and   the Successor Borrower shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to cause such   property and assets to be made subject to a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent for the benefit   of the Secured Parties, in each case to the extent required under Subsection 7.9.   (c) Any Indebtedness that becomes an obligation of the Borrower (or, if   applicable, any Successor Borrower with respect thereto) or any Restricted Subsidiary (or that is   deemed to be Incurred by any Restricted Subsidiary that becomes a Restricted Subsidiary) as a   result of any such transaction undertaken in compliance with this Subsection 8.7, and any   Refinancing Indebtedness with respect thereto, shall be deemed to have been Incurred in   compliance with Subsection 8.1.   (d) Upon any transaction involving the Borrower in accordance with Subsection   8.7(a) in which the Borrower is not the Successor Borrower, the Successor Borrower will   succeed to, and be substituted for, and may exercise every right and power of, the Borrower   under the Loan Documents, and shall become the “Borrower” for all purposes of the Loan   Documents, and thereafter the predecessor Borrower shall be relieved of all obligations and   covenants under the Loan Documents, and shall cease to constitute the “Borrower” for all   purposes of the Loan Documents, except that the predecessor Borrower in the case of a lease of   all or substantially all its assets will not be released from the obligation to pay the principal of   and interest on the Term Loans.   (e) Clauses (ii) and (iii) of Subsection 8.7(a) will not apply to any transaction in   which (I) the Borrower consolidates or merges with or into or transfers all or substantially all its   properties and assets to (x) an Affiliate incorporated or organized for the purpose of   reincorporating or reorganizing the Borrower in another jurisdiction or changing its legal   structure to a corporation, limited liability company, partnership or other entity or (y) a   Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower so long as all assets of the Borrower and the Restricted   Subsidiaries immediately prior to such transaction (other than Capital Stock of such Restricted   Subsidiary) are owned by such Restricted Subsidiary and its Restricted Subsidiaries immediately     
  168            after the consummation thereof or (II) an Escrow Subsidiary merges with and into the Borrower.   Subsection 8.7(a) will not apply to (i) any transaction in which any Restricted Subsidiary   consolidates with, merges into or transfers all or part of its assets to the Borrower or (ii) the   Transactions.   (f) For purposes of this covenant, so long as at the time of any Minority   Business Disposition or any Minority Business Offering the Minority Business Disposition   Condition is met, the Minority Business Assets shall not be deemed at any time to constitute all   or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower, and any sale or transfer of all or any part of the   Minority Business Assets (whether directly or indirectly, whether by sale or transfer of any such   assets, or of any Capital Stock or other interest in any Person holding such assets, or any   consolidation or merger, or any combination thereof, and whether in one or more transactions, or   otherwise, including any Minority Business Offering or any Minority Business Disposition) shall   not be deemed at any time to constitute a consolidation with or merger with or into, or   conveyance, transfer or lease of all or substantially all of the assets of the Borrower to, any   Person.   8.8 Change of Control. (a) Upon the occurrence after the Closing Date of a   Change of Control, each Lender will have the right to require the Borrower to prepay all or any   part of such Term Loans at a purchase price in cash (the “Change of Control Payment”) equal to   101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not   including the date of prepayment (subject to the right of Lenders to receive interest due on the   relevant interest payment date falling prior to or on the prepayment date); provided, however,   that the Borrower shall not be obligated to prepay Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection 8.8 in   the event that it has exercised its right to prepay all of the Term Loans pursuant to   Subsection 4.4(a).   (b) In the event that, at the time of such Change of Control, the terms of any   Credit Facility Indebtedness constituting Designated Senior Indebtedness restrict or prohibit the   prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Subsection 8.8, then prior to the sending of the   notice to Lenders provided for in Subsection 8.8(c) but in any event not later than 30 days   following the date the Borrower obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control (unless the   Borrower has exercised its right to prepay all the Term Loans pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a)), the   Borrower shall, or shall cause one or more of its Subsidiaries to, (i) repay in full all such Credit   Facility Indebtedness subject to such terms or offer to repay in full all such Credit Facility   Indebtedness and repay the Credit Facility Indebtedness of each lender who has accepted such   offer or (ii) obtain the requisite consent under the agreements governing such Credit Facility   Indebtedness to permit the prepayment of the Term Loans as provided for Subsection 8.8(c).   The Borrower shall first comply with the provisions of the immediately preceding sentence   before it shall be required to prepay Term Loans pursuant to the provisions described below.   The Borrower’s failure to comply with the provisions of this Subsection 8.8(b) or the provisions   of Subsection 8.8(c) shall constitute an Event of Default described in Subsection 8.1(d) and not   in Subsection 8.1(b).   (c) Unless the Borrower has exercised its right to prepay all the Term Loans   pursuant to Subsection 4.4(a), the Borrower shall, not later than 30 days following the date the   Borrower obtains actual knowledge of any Change of Control having occurred, send a notice (a     
 
  169            “Change of Control Offer”) to the Administrative Agent (and upon receipt by the Administrative   Agent of such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly provide such notice to each   Lender) stating: (1) that a Change of Control has occurred or may occur and that such Lender   has, or upon such occurrence will have, the right to require the Borrower to prepay such Lender’s   Term Loans at a purchase price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus   accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the date of prepayment (subject to the   right of Lenders to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date falling prior to or on the   prepayment date); (2) the prepayment date (which shall be no earlier than 10 days nor later than   60 days from the date such notice is sent, except that such notice may be delivered more than 60   days prior to the prepayment date if the prepayment date is delayed as provided in clause (4) of   this Subsection 8.8(c)); (3) the instructions determined by the Borrower, consistent with this   Subsection 8.8, that a Lender must follow in order to have its Term Loans prepaid; and (4) if   such notice is sent prior to the occurrence of a Change of Control, that such offer is conditioned   on the occurrence of such Change of Control and that the purchase date may, in the Borrower’s   discretion, be delayed until such time as the Change of Control has occurred.   (d) The Borrower will not be required to make a Change of Control Offer upon a   Change of Control if (i) a third party makes the Change of Control Offer in the manner, at the   times and otherwise in compliance with the requirements set forth in this Agreement applicable   to a Change of Control Offer made by the Borrower and prepays all Term Loans validly tendered   and not withdrawn under such Change of Control Offer or (ii) in connection with or in   contemplation of any Change of Control, to the extent a definitive agreement is in place for the   Change of Control at such time, the Borrower (or any Affiliate of the Borrower) has made an   offer to prepay (an “Alternate Offer”) any and all Term Loans validly tendered at a cash price   equal to or higher than the Change of Control Payment and has prepaid all Term Loans properly   tendered in connection with the terms of the Alternate Offer.   (e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, a Change of Control Offer   or an Alternate Offer may be made in advance of a Change of Control, conditional upon such   Change of Control, if a definitive agreement is in place for the Change of Control at the time of   making of the Change of Control Offer or Alternate Offer.   (f) A Change of Control Offer or an Alternate Offer may be made at the same   time as consents are solicited with respect to an amendment, supplement or waiver of this   Agreement or the other Loan Documents.   (g) If Lenders of not less than 90% in aggregate principal amount of the   outstanding Term Loans of any Tranche validly tender and do not withdraw such Term Loans in   a Change of Control Offer or an Alternate Offer and the Borrower, or any third party making a   Change of Control Offer or any Affiliate of the Borrower making an Alternate Offer in lieu of   the Borrower as described in Subsection 8.8(d), prepays all of the Term Loans of such Tranche   validly tendered and not withdrawn by such Lenders, the Borrower or such third party or such   Affiliate will have the right, upon not less than 10 nor more than 60 days’ prior notice, given not   more than 30 days following such prepayment pursuant to such Change of Control Offer or such   Alternate Offer, to redeem all Term Loans of any Tranche that remain outstanding following   such purchase at a price in cash equal to 101.0% of the principal amount thereof, plus accrued   and unpaid interest, if any, to but not including the date of prepayment (subject to the right of     
  170            Lenders to receive interest on the relevant interest payment date falling prior to or on the   prepayment date). In determining whether the Lenders of at least 90% in the aggregate principal   amount of the outstanding Term Loans of any Tranche have validly tendered and not validly   withdrawn such Term Loans in a Change of Control Offer or an Alternate Offer, Term Loans   owned by an Affiliate of the Borrower or by funds controlled or managed by an Affiliate of the   Borrower, or any successor thereof, shall be deemed to be outstanding for the purposes of such   Change of Control Offer or such Alternate Offer.   (h) The Borrower will comply, to the extent applicable, with the requirements of   Section 14(e) of the Exchange Act and any other securities laws or regulations in connection   with the repurchase of Indebtedness pursuant to this Subsection 8.8. To the extent that the   provisions of any securities laws or regulations conflict with the provisions of this Subsection   8.8, the Borrower will comply with the applicable securities laws and regulations and will not be   deemed to have breached its obligations under this covenant by virtue thereof.   SECTION 9      Events of Default   9.1 Events of Default. An “Event of Default” means the occurrence of the   following:   (a) a default in any payment of interest on any Term Loan when due,   continued for 30 days, provided that any non-payment of interest resulting from the   Borrower’s good faith payment of an invoice received from the Administrative Agent   shall not constitute an Event of Default; or   (b) a default in the payment of principal of any Term Loan when due, whether   at the applicable Maturity Date, upon optional redemption, upon required prepayment,   upon declaration of acceleration or otherwise, provided that any non-payment of principal   resulting from the Borrower’s good faith payment of an invoice received from the   Administrative Agent shall not constitute an Event of Default; or   (c) the failure by the Borrower to comply with its obligations under   Subsection 8.7(a); or   (d) the failure by the Borrower to comply for 30 days after the notice   specified in Subsection 9.2(c) with any of its obligations under Subsection 8.8 (other than   a failure to prepay the Term Loans); or   (e) the failure by the Borrower to comply for (x) 180 days after the notice   specified in Subsection 9.2(c) with any of its obligations under Subsection 7.1 or (y) 60   days after the notice specified in Subsection 9.2(c) with its other agreements contained in   this Agreement; or   (f) the failure by any Subsidiary Guarantor to comply for 45 days after the   notice specified in Subsection 9.2(c) with its obligations under its Subsidiary Guaranty;   or

(a) If any Event of Default occurs   and is continuing, then, and in any such event, (A) if such event is an Event of Default specified   in Subsection 9.1(h) or (i) with respect to the Borrower, automatically the Commitments, if any,     
 
  173            shall immediately terminate and the Loans hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all   other amounts owing under this Agreement shall immediately become due and payable, and   (B) if such event is any other Event of Default, with the consent of the Required Lenders, the   Administrative Agent may, or upon the request of the Required Lenders, the Administrative   Agent shall, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Commitments to be terminated forthwith,   whereupon the Commitments, if any, shall immediately terminate, and/or declare the Loans   hereunder (with accrued interest thereon) and all other amounts owing under this Agreement to   be due and payable forthwith, whereupon the same shall immediately become due and payable.   (b) Except as expressly provided above in this Section 9, to the maximum extent   permitted by applicable law, presentment, demand, protest and all other notices of any kind are   hereby expressly waived.   (c) A Default under Subsection 9.1(d), (e), (f) or (l) will not constitute an Event   of Default until the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Borrower in writing   of the Default and the Borrower does not cure such Default within the time specified in such   clause after receipt of such notice. Such notice must specify the Default, demand that it be   remedied and state that such notice is a “Notice of Default.” When a Default or an Event of   Default is cured, it ceases.   (d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, neither the Administrative Agent   nor any Lender may deliver notice of, or otherwise consent, take action or direct or require the   Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action in respect of, any Default or Event   of Default with respect to any action taken, and reported publicly or to Lenders, more than two   years prior to such notice of, consent, action or direction or requirement to undertake action in   respect of, Default or Event of Default, and such notice, consent, action or direction or   requirement to undertake action shall be invalid and have no effect.   (e) The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, within 30 days after   the occurrence thereof, written notice in the form of a certificate of a Responsible Officer of any   Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(g) or Subsection 9.1(j) and any event that with the giving   of notice or the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(d),   Subsection 9.1(e), Subsection 9.1(f) or Subsection 9.1(l), its status and what action the Borrower   is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto.   SECTION 10      The Agents and the Other Representatives   10.1 Appointment. (a) Each Lender hereby irrevocably designates and   appoints the Agents as the agents of such Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan   Documents, and each such Lender irrevocably authorizes each Agent, in such capacity, to take   such action on its behalf under the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents   and to exercise such powers and perform such duties as are expressly delegated to or required of   such Agent by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such   other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary   elsewhere in this Agreement, the Agents and the Other Representatives shall not have any duties     
  174            or responsibilities, except, in the case of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent,   those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, or any fiduciary relationship   with any Lender, and no implied covenants, functions, responsibilities, duties, obligations or   liabilities shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise exist   against any Agent or the Other Representatives.   (b) Each of the Agents may perform any of their respective duties under this   Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other instruments and agreements referred to   herein or therein by or through its respective officers, directors, agents, employees or affiliates,   or delegate any and all such rights and powers to, any one or more sub-agents appointed by such   Agent (it being understood and agreed, for avoidance of doubt and without limiting the   generality of the foregoing, that the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may perform   any of their respective duties under the Security Documents by or through one or more of their   respective affiliates). Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties   and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The   exculpatory provisions of this Section 10 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related   Parties of each 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   Agent.   (c) Except for Subsections 10.5, 10.8(a), (b), (c), (e) and (g) and (to the extent of   the Borrower’s rights thereunder and the conditions included therein) 10.9 and 10.15, the   provisions of this Section 10 are solely for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders, and neither   the Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any of   such provisions.   10.2 The Administrative Agent and Affiliates. Each Person serving as an   Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other   Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent and the term “Lender” or   “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires,   include each Person serving as an Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person 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 Holdings, the Borrower   or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not an Agent hereunder and   without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.   10.3 Action by an Agent. In performing its functions and duties under this   Agreement, (a) each Agent shall act solely as an agent for the Lenders and, as applicable, the   other Secured Parties, and (b) no Agent assumes any (and shall not be deemed to have assumed   any) relationship of agency or trust with or for the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. Each   Agent may execute any of its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents by or   through agents or attorneys-in-fact (including the Collateral Agent in the case of the   Administrative Agent), and shall be entitled to advice of counsel concerning all matters   pertaining to such duties. No Agent shall be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any   agents or attorneys-in-fact or counsel selected by it with reasonable care.     
 
  175            10.4 Exculpatory Provisions. (a) No Agent shall have any duties or   obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without   limiting the generality of the foregoing, no Agent:   (i) shall be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of   whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;   (ii) shall have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any   discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated   hereby or by the other Loan Documents that such Agent is required to exercise as   directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the   Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents);   provided that such Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its judgment or   the judgment of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any   Loan Document or applicable Requirement of Law; and   (iii) shall, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan   Documents, 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 Affiliates that is communicated to   or obtained by the Person serving as such Agent or any of its affiliates in any capacity.   (b) No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (x) with the   consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the   Lenders as shall be necessary, or as such Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary,   under the circumstances as provided in Subsection 9.2 or Subsection 11.1, as applicable) or (y) in   the absence of its own bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct. No Agent shall be   deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice describing such Default   is given to such Agent by the Borrower or a Lender.   (c) No Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire   into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement   or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report, statement, agreement or   other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii)   the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions   set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability,   effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other   agreement, instrument or document or the creation, perfection or priority of any Lien purported   to be created by the Security Documents or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in   Section 6 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be   delivered to such Agent. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the use of the term   “agent” in this Agreement with reference to the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is   not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under   agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead, such term is used merely as a matter of market   custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between   independent contracting parties.     
  176            (d) Each party to this Agreement acknowledges and agrees that the   Administrative Agent may use an outside service provider for the tracking of all UCC financing   statements required to be filed pursuant to the Loan Documents and notification to the   Administrative Agent, of, among other things, the upcoming lapse or expiration thereof, and that   any such service provider will be deemed to be acting at the request and on behalf of the   Borrower and the other Loan Parties. No Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken   by any such service provider.   10.5 Acknowledgement and Representations by Lenders. Each Lender   expressly acknowledges that none of the Agents or the Other Representatives nor any of their   officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or affiliates has made any representations   or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent or any Other Representative hereafter taken,   including any review of the affairs of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, shall be deemed to   constitute any representation or warranty by such Agent or such Other Representative to any   Lender. Each Lender further represents and warrants to the Agents, the Other Representatives   and each of the Loan Parties that it has had the opportunity to review the Lender Presentation   and each other document made available to it on the Platform in connection with this Agreement   and has acknowledged and accepted the terms and conditions applicable to the recipients thereof.   Each Lender represents to the Agents, the Other Representatives and each of the Loan Parties   that, independently and without reliance upon any Agent, the Other Representatives or any other   Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, it has made   and will make, its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, property,   financial and other condition and creditworthiness of Holdings and the Borrower and the other   Loan Parties, it has made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this   Agreement and it will make its own decisions in taking or not taking any action under this   Agreement and the other Loan Documents and, except as expressly provided in this Agreement,   neither the Agents nor any Other Representative shall have any duty or responsibility, either   initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender or the holder of any Note with any credit   or other information with respect thereto, whether coming into its possession before the making   of the Loans or at any time or times thereafter. Each Lender (other than, in the case of clause (i),   an Affiliated Lender, any Parent Entity (other than Holdings) or any Unrestricted Subsidiary)   represents to each other party hereto that (i) it is a bank, savings and loan association or other   similar savings institution, insurance company, investment fund or company or other financial   institution which makes or acquires commercial loans in the ordinary course of its business and   that it is participating hereunder as a Lender for such commercial purposes and (ii) it has the   knowledge and experience to be and is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of being a   Lender hereunder. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees to comply with the provisions of   Subsection 11.6 applicable to the Lenders hereunder.   If the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, determines in good faith with   respect to all or any portion of any distribution of funds made hereunder by, or on behalf of, the   Administrative Agent to any Lender or other Secured Party (x) that such distribution has been   made in error, whether such error is known to the recipient of such distribution or not, or (y) that   the recipient of such distribution is not otherwise entitled to receive such distribution under the   provisions of this Agreement at such time and in such amount from the Administrative Agent   (any such distribution, an “Erroneous Distribution”), then the relevant Lender or other Secured   Party shall forthwith on demand repay an amount equal to the Erroneous Distribution, together     
 
  177            with interest thereon (calculated using the Base Rate) in respect of each day from and including   the date such Erroneous Distribution was made, to the Administrative Agent in same day funds.   Any good faith determination by the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, that all or a   portion of any distribution to a Lender or other Secured Party was an Erroneous Distribution   shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender or other Secured Party that receives an   Erroneous Distribution waives any defense of discharge for value and any other claim of   entitlement to, or in respect of, such Erroneous Distribution. Notwithstanding anything to the   contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, (x) without limiting Subsection 10.6, neither the   Borrower nor any other Loan Party shall have any obligations or liabilities directly or indirectly   arising out of this Subsection 10.5 in respect of any Erroneous Distribution and (y) nothing in   this Subsection 10.5 shall limit any party’s right of subrogation.   10.6 Indemnity; Reimbursement by Lenders. (a) To the extent that the   Borrower or any other Loan Party for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required   under Subsection 11.5 to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof), or   the Collateral Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any Related Party of any of the foregoing   (other than through such Agent’s or Related Party’s bad faith, gross negligence or willful   misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and nonappealable   decision), each Lender severally agrees to pay ratably according to their respective Term Credit   Percentages on the date on which the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is   sought under this Subsection 10.6 such unpaid amount (such indemnity shall be effective   whether or not the related losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses are incurred or   asserted by any party hereto or any third party); provided that the unreimbursed expense or   indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by   or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Collateral Agent (or   any sub-agent thereof), in their capacity as such, or against any Related Party of any of the   foregoing acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or the Collateral Agent (or   any sub-agent thereof) in connection with such capacity. The obligations of the Lenders under   this Subsection 10.6 are subject to the provisions of Subsection 4.8.   (b) Any Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action   hereunder and under any other Loan Document (except actions expressly required to be taken by   it hereunder or under the Loan Documents) unless it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction   by the Lenders pro rata against any and all liability, cost and expense that it may incur by reason   of taking or continuing to take any such action.   (c) All amounts due under this Subsection 10.6 shall be payable not later than   three Business Days after demand therefor. The agreements in this Subsection 10.6 shall survive   the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.   10.7 Right to Request and Act on Instructions. (a) Each Agent may at any   time request instructions from the Lenders with respect to any actions or approvals which by the   terms of this Agreement or of any of the Loan Documents an Agent is permitted or desires to   take or to grant, and if such instructions are promptly requested, the requesting Agent shall be   absolutely entitled as between itself and the Lenders to refrain from taking any action or to   withhold any approval and shall not be under any liability whatsoever to any Lender for   refraining from any action or withholding any approval under any of the Loan Documents until it     
  178            shall have received such instructions from Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the   Lenders as shall be prescribed by this Agreement. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender   shall have any right of action whatsoever against any Agent as a result of an Agent acting or   refraining from acting under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents in accordance   with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall   be prescribed by this Agreement) and, notwithstanding the instructions of the Required Lenders   (or such other applicable portion of the Lenders), an Agent shall have no obligation to any   Lender to take any action if it believes, in good faith, that such action would violate applicable   law or exposes an Agent to any liability for which it has not received satisfactory   indemnification in accordance with the provisions of Subsection 10.6.   (b) Each 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, sent or otherwise   authenticated by the proper Person. Each Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it   orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been 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 that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the   Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the   Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the   making of such Loan. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the   Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall be entitled to rely   upon the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts and shall not be liable for any action   taken or not taken by it in accordance with such advice.   10.8 Collateral Matters. (a) Each Lender authorizes and directs the   Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent to enter into (x) the Security Documents, the   Base Intercreditor Agreement, any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement and any Other   Intercreditor Agreement for the benefit of the Lenders and the other Secured Parties, (y) any   amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or   other modifications to the Security Documents, the Base Intercreditor Agreement, any Junior   Lien Intercreditor Agreement and any Other Intercreditor Agreement or other intercreditor   agreements in connection with the incurrence by any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof of   Additional Indebtedness (each an “Intercreditor Agreement Supplement”) to permit such   Additional Indebtedness to be secured by a valid, perfected lien (with such priority as may be   designated by the Borrower or relevant Loan Party or Subsidiary, to the extent such priority is   permitted by the Loan Documents) and (z) any Incremental Commitment Amendment as   provided in Subsection 2.8 together with any escrow agreement entered into in connection   therewith, any Increase Supplement as provided in Subsection 2.8, any Lender Joinder   Agreement as provided in Subsection 2.8, any agreement required in connection with a Permitted   Debt Exchange Offer pursuant to Subsection 2.9, any Extension Amendment as provided in   Subsection 2.10, any Specified Refinancing Amendment as provided in Subsection 2.11, any   agreement required in connection with a loan modification offer pursuant to Subsection 11.1(h)   and any agreement required in connection with a repricing transaction pursuant to Subsection   11.1(i). Each Lender hereby agrees, and each holder of any Note by the acceptance thereof will   be deemed to agree, that, except as otherwise set forth herein, any action taken by the     
 
  179            Administrative Agent, Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders in accordance with the   provisions of this Agreement, the Security Documents, the Base Intercreditor Agreement, any   Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any Other Intercreditor Agreement, any Intercreditor   Agreement Supplement, any Incremental Commitment Amendment and any escrow agreement   entered into in connection therewith, any Increase Supplement, any Lender Joinder Agreement or   any agreement required in connection with a Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, loan modification   offer pursuant to Subsection 11.1(h) or repricing transaction pursuant to Subsection 11.1(i) or   any Extension Amendment or any Specified Refinancing Amendment and the exercise by the   Agents or the Required Lenders of the powers set forth herein or therein, together with such   other powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be authorized and binding upon all of the   Lenders. Each Lender appoints and authorizes the Collateral Agent to act as the agent of such   Lender under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (and, in its capacity as Collateral   Agent, to hold the benefit of any security interest created by the Security Documents and/or any   asset and proceeds of any asset paid to, held by or received or recovered by it under or in   connection with the Loan Documents on trust for itself and the other Lenders according to its and   their respective interests and upon the terms and conditions set out in the relevant Loan   Documents). The Collateral Agent is hereby authorized on behalf of all of the Lenders, without   the necessity of any notice to or further consent from any Lender, from time to time, to take any   action with respect to any applicable Collateral or Security Documents which may be necessary   to perfect and maintain perfected the security interest in and liens upon the Collateral granted   pursuant to the Security Documents. Each Lender agrees that it will not have any right   individually to enforce or seek to enforce any Security Document or to realize upon any   Collateral for the Loans unless instructed to do so by the Collateral Agent, it being understood   and agreed that such rights and remedies may be exercised only by the Collateral Agent.   Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender expressly and irrevocably waives any right to take   or institute any actions or proceedings, judicial or otherwise, for any right or remedy or assert   any other cause of action against any Loan Party (including the exercise of any right of set-off,   rights on account of any banker’s lien or similar claim or other rights of self-help), or institute   any actions or proceedings or any other cause of action, or otherwise commence any remedial   procedures, in each case in its capacity as a Lender, against Holdings, the Borrower and/or any   of their respective Subsidiaries or any Parent Entity or IPO Vehicle with respect to any Collateral   or any other property of any such Person, without the prior written consent of the Administrative   Agent and the Required Lenders (which shall not be withheld in contravention of this Section   10); provided, that, for the avoidance of doubt, this provision may be enforced against any   Lender by the Required Lenders, the Agents or the Borrower (or any of their Affiliates) and each   Lender and the Agents expressly acknowledge that this provision shall be available as a defense   of the Borrower (or any of its Affiliates) in any action, proceeding, cause of action or remedial   procedure. The Collateral Agent may grant extensions of time for the creation and perfection of   security interests in or the obtaining of title insurance, legal opinions or other deliverables with   respect to particular assets or the provision of any guarantee by any Subsidiary (including   extensions beyond the Closing Date or in connection with assets acquired, or Subsidiaries   formed or acquired, after the Closing Date) where it determines that such action cannot be   accomplished without undue effort or expense by the time or times at which it would otherwise   be required to be accomplished by this Agreement or the Security Documents.   (b) The Lenders hereby authorize each Agent, in each case at its option and in its   discretion, (A) to release any Lien granted to or held by such Agent upon any Collateral (i) upon     
  180            termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all of the Term Loan Facility   Obligations under the Loan Documents at any time arising under or in respect of this Agreement   or the Loan Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby that are then due and   unpaid, (ii) constituting property being sold or otherwise disposed of (to Persons other than the   Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor) upon the sale or other disposition thereof, (iii) owned by   any Guarantor that is released from its Term Loan Facility Obligations pursuant to the Parent   Guaranty or the Subsidiary Guaranty and, if applicable, the equity interests of such Guarantor or   owned by any Guarantor that ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Wholly Owned   Domestic Subsidiary of the Borrower or constituting Excluded Assets, (iv) if approved,   authorized or ratified in writing by the Required Lenders (or such greater amount, to the extent   required by Subsection 11.1), (v) to the extent required pursuant to the terms of any intercreditor   agreement (including the Base Intercreditor Agreement, any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement   and any Other Intercreditor Agreement), (vi) that at any time constitute Excluded Assets, (vii) so   long as any Cash Flow Collateral Obligations are outstanding, at any time that any Lien upon   such Collateral is (or, substantially concurrently with the release of such Collateral or if as a   result of the release of such Collateral, will be) released under any Cash Flow Collateral   Obligations (other than a release in connection with a discharge of all of the Cash Flow   Collateral Obligations (other than the Term Loan Facility Obligations)), (viii) the release of   Excess Collateral Proceeds or Excess Other Proceeds (whether in respect of any Asset   Disposition of Collateral or non-Collateral) that remain unexpended after the conclusion of an   applicable mandatory prepayment pursuant to Subsection 4.4(e)(i) or (ix) as otherwise may be   expressly provided in the relevant Security Documents, (B) to enter into any intercreditor   agreement (including the Base Intercreditor Agreement, any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement   and any Other Intercreditor Agreement) on behalf of, and binding with respect to, the Lenders   and their interest in designated assets, to give effect to any Special Purpose Financing, including   to clarify the respective rights of all parties in and to designated assets, (C) at the written request   of the Borrower to subordinate any Lien (or to confirm the absence of any Lien) on any   Excluded Assets or any other property granted to or held by such Agent, as the case may be   under any Loan Document to the holder of any Permitted Lien (other than Permitted Liens   securing the Obligations under the Loan Documents or that are required by the express terms of   this Agreement to be pari passu with or junior to the Liens on the Collateral securing the Term   Loan Facility Obligations pursuant to the Base Intercreditor Agreement, a Junior Lien   Intercreditor Agreement or an Other Intercreditor Agreement), (D) to release any Subsidiary   Guarantor from its Term Loan Facility Obligations under any Loan Documents to which it is a   party if such Person ceases to be a Restricted Subsidiary that is a Wholly Owned Domestic   Subsidiary of the Borrower, is released from its Term Loan Facility Obligations pursuant to the   Subsidiary Guaranty or constituting Excluded Assets and (E) to release any Lien granted to or   held by such Agent upon any ABL Priority Collateral to the extent required pursuant to the terms   of the Base Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement. Upon request by any   Agent, at any time, the Required Lenders or all or such other portion of the Lenders as shall be   prescribed by this Agreement will confirm in writing any Agent’s authority to release particular   types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Subsection 10.8.   (c) The Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent and the Collateral   Agent, as the case may be, in each case at its option and in its discretion, to enter into any   amendment, amendment and restatement, restatement, waiver, supplement or modification, and   to make or consent to any filings or to take any other actions, in each case as contemplated by     
 
  181            Subsection 11.17. Upon request by any Agent, at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in   writing the Administrative Agent’s and the Collateral Agent’s authority under this   Subsection 10.8(c).   (d) No Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to the Lenders to assure that   the Collateral exists or is owned by Holdings, the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries   or is cared for, protected or insured or that the Liens granted to any Agent herein or pursuant   hereto have been properly or sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or   are entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise or to continue exercising at all or in any   manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity any of the rights, authorities and powers   granted or available to the Agents in this Subsection 10.8 or in any of the Security Documents, it   being understood and agreed by the Lenders that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission   or event related thereto, each Agent may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole   discretion, given such Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as a Lender and that no Agent shall   have any duty or liability whatsoever to the Lenders, except for its gross negligence or willful   misconduct.   (e) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, any Security   Document may be amended (or amended and restated), restated, waived, supplemented or   modified as contemplated by and in accordance with either Subsection 11.1 or 11.17, as   applicable, with the written consent of the Agent party thereto and the Loan Party party thereto.   (f) The Collateral Agent may, and hereby does, appoint the Administrative   Agent as its agent for the purposes of holding any Collateral and/or perfecting the Collateral   Agent’s security interest therein and for the purpose of taking such other action with respect to   the collateral as such Agents may from time to time agree.   (g) Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Lender expressly and irrevocably   agrees that it will not hinder, or direct the Agents to take any action that will hinder, the   automatic release of any security interest, Lien or Guarantee provided for by this Subsection 10.8   to the extent the Borrower determines in good faith that the applicable transaction is permitted   under this Agreement (including, without limitation, in connection with any disposition to   Persons other than the Borrower or a Subsidiary Guarantor permitted under this Agreement),   including, without limitation, any refusal to release security interests, Liens or Guarantees, return   possessory collateral, execute and/or file release documentation or take any other reasonably   requested actions to document or effectuate the release of such security interests, Liens or   Guarantees, in each case, at the Borrower’s sole cost and expense, and each Lender expressly   and irrevocably agrees that the Agents shall be authorized to, and shall, take any necessary action   to release any such security interest, Lien or Guarantee to the extent authorized to do so by this   Subsection 10.8 without any obligation or requirement to notify or obtain consent from any   Lender unless required by Subsection 11.1(a)(iii) (and the Agents shall not condition any such   actions on providing notice to, or obtaining consent from, the Lenders unless required by   Subsection 11.1(a)(iii)).   10.9 Successor Agent. Subject to the appointment of a successor as set forth   herein, (i) the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent may be removed by the Borrower or   the Required Lenders if the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent, or a controlling affiliate     
  182            of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent is a Defaulting Lender and (ii) the   Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral   Agent, respectively, in each case upon ten days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, the Lenders   and the Borrower, as applicable. If the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall be   removed by the Borrower or the Required Lenders pursuant to clause (i) above or if the   Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent shall resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral   Agent, as applicable, under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, then the Required   Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which such   successor agent shall be subject to approval by the Borrower; provided that such approval by the   Borrower in connection with the appointment of any successor Administrative Agent shall only   be required so long as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred   and is continuing; provided further, that the Borrower shall not unreasonably withhold its   approval of any successor Administrative Agent if such successor is an Approved Commercial   Bank. Upon the successful appointment of a successor agent, such successor agent shall succeed   to the rights, powers and duties of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as   applicable, and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent”, as applicable, shall mean   such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s   rights, powers and duties as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as applicable, shall be   terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of   the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. After any retiring Agent’s resignation   or removal as Agent, the provisions of this Section 10 (including this Subsection 10.9) shall   inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under   this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. 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.   10.10 [Reserved].   10.11 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, each   Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable   withholding tax, and in no event shall such Agent be required to be responsible for or pay any   additional amount with respect to any such withholding. If the Internal Revenue Service or any   other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that any Agent did not properly withhold tax from   amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender because the appropriate form was not delivered   or was not properly executed or because such Lender failed to notify such Agent of a change in   circumstances which rendered the exemption from or reduction of withholding tax ineffective or   for any other reason, without limiting the provisions of Subsection 4.11(a), such Lender shall   indemnify such Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by such Agent as tax or   otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred and shall   make payable in respect thereof within 30 days after demand therefor. 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 or such issuing lender   under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due the Administrative   Agent under this Subsection 10.11. The agreements in this Subsection 10.11 shall survive the   resignation and/or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any assignment of rights by, or the     
 
  183            replacement of, a Lender and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all other Term Loan   Facility Obligations.   10.12 Other Representatives. None of the entities identified as joint bookrunners   and joint lead arrangers pursuant to the definition of “Other Representative” contained herein,   shall have any duties or responsibilities hereunder or under any other Loan Document in its   capacity as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no Other Representative shall have nor be   deemed to have a fiduciary relationship with any Lender. At any time that any Lender serving as   an Other Representative shall have transferred to any other Person (other than any of its   affiliates) all of its interests in the Loans and in the Commitments, such Lender shall be deemed   to have concurrently resigned as such Other Representative.   10.13 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency   of any Bankruptcy Proceeding or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the   Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and   payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the   Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) is hereby authorized by the   Lenders, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:   (a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest   owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and   unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to   have the claims of the Lenders, and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for   the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, and   the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts   due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent under Subsections 4.5 and 11.5) allowed   in such judicial proceeding;   (b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable   on any such claims and to distribute the same;   and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in   any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the   Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such   payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the   reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent   and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under   Subsections 4.5 and 11.5.   10.14 Application of Proceeds. The Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the   Collateral Agent agree, as among such parties, as follows: subject to the terms of the Base   Intercreditor Agreement, any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement, any Other Intercreditor   Agreement or any Intercreditor Agreement Supplement, after the occurrence and during the   continuance of an Event of Default, all amounts collected or received by the Administrative   Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender on account of amounts then due and outstanding   under any of the Loan Documents (the “Collection Amounts”) shall, except as otherwise   expressly provided herein, be applied as follows: first, to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs     
  184            and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein) due and owing   hereunder of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent in connection with enforcing the   rights of the Agents and the Lenders under the Loan Documents (including all expenses of sale   or other realization of or in respect of the Collateral and any sums advanced to the Collateral   Agent or to preserve its security interest in the Collateral), second, to pay all reasonable out-of-   pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees to the extent provided herein)   due and owing hereunder of each of the Lenders in connection with enforcing such Lender’s   rights under the Loan Documents, third, to pay interest on Loans then outstanding; fourth, to pay   principal of Loans then outstanding and obligations under Interest Rate Agreements, Currency   Agreements, Commodities Agreements, Bank Products Agreements and Management   Guarantees permitted hereunder and secured by the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement, ratably   among the applicable Secured Parties in proportion to the respective amounts described in this   clause “fourth” payable to them, and fifth, to pay the surplus, if any, to whomever may be   lawfully entitled to receive such surplus. To the extent any amounts available for distribution   pursuant to clause “third” or “fourth” above are insufficient to pay all obligations described   therein in full, such moneys shall be allocated pro rata among the applicable Secured Parties in   proportion to the respective amounts described in the applicable clause at such time.

  190            (g) If, in connection with any proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination   of or to any of the provisions of this Agreement and/or any other Loan Document as   contemplated by Subsection 11.1(a), the consent of each Lender or each affected Lender, as   applicable, is required and either (x) the consent of the Required Lenders or the Required   Majority in Interest Lenders, as applicable, at such time is obtained or (y) the consent of the   Required Lenders or the Required Majority in Interest Lenders, as applicable, at such time is not   obtained, but, in each case under clause (x) or (y), the consent of one or more of such other   Lenders whose consent is required is not obtained (each such Lender, a “Non-Consenting   Lender”) then the Borrower may, on notice to, in the case of clause (x), the Administrative Agent   and any relevant Non-Consenting Lender, or, in the case of clause (y), the Administrative Agent   and every Non-Consenting Lender, (A) replace such Non-Consenting Lender by causing such   Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Subsection 11.6 (with the   assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Borrower in such instance) all   of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided that neither   the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a   replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to the   applicable change, waiver, discharge or termination of this Agreement and/or the other Loan   Documents; and provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-   Consenting Lender relating to the Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be   paid in full by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, by the Borrower) to such Non-Consenting   Lender concurrently with such Assignment and Acceptance, in each case, for the avoidance of   doubt, in an amount not in excess of the amount of such obligations, as applicable, or (B) so long   as no Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) then exists or will exist   immediately after giving effect to the respective prepayment, prepay the Loans of such Non-   Consenting Lender, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty. In connection with any   such replacement under this Subsection 11.1(g), if a Non-Consenting Lender that was provided   notice as set forth in the previous sentence does not execute and deliver to the Administrative   Agent a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary   to reflect such replacement by the later of (a) the date on which the replacement Lender executes   and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date   as of which all obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender relating to the   Loans, Commitments and participations so assigned shall be paid in full by the assignee Lender   to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have   executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation as of   such date and the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such   Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other documentation on behalf of such Non-Consenting   Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register.   (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, at any time and from time   to time, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall promptly notify the applicable   Lenders) specifying in reasonable detail the proposed terms thereof, the Borrower may make one   or more loan modification offers to all the Lenders of any Facility that would, if and to the extent   accepted by any such Lender, (a) change the Applicable Margin and/or fees payable with respect   to the Loans and/or Commitments under such Facility (in each case solely with respect to the   Loans and Commitments of accepting Lenders in respect of which an acceptance is delivered)   and (b) treat the Loans and/or Commitments so modified as a new “Facility” and a new   “Tranche” for all purposes under this Agreement; provided that (i) such loan modification offer     
 
  191            is made to each Lender under the applicable Facility on the same terms and subject to the same   procedures as are applicable to all other Lenders under such Facility (which procedures in any   case shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) and (ii) no loan modification   shall affect the rights or duties of, or any fees or other amounts payable to, the Administrative   Agent, without its prior written consent.   (i) In connection with any amendment to this Agreement that addresses a   “repricing transaction” of any Tranche of Term Loans (each such amendment, a “Permitted   Repricing Amendment”), so long as such amendment by its terms only affects the rights or duties   under this Agreement or any other Loan Document of Lenders holding such Loans or   Commitments of such Tranche of Term Loans (but not the Lenders holding Loans or   Commitments of any other Tranche), only the consent of the requisite percentage in interest   (assuming for such determination, such Tranche is the only outstanding Tranche hereunder) of   (x) the Lenders holding such Tranche of Term Loans that will continue as a Lender in respect of   such Tranche following such Permitted Repricing Amendment and (y) any increasing Lender or   Additional Incremental Lender that provides Supplemental Term Loan Commitments to such   Tranche of Term Loans substantially concurrently with such Permitted Repricing Amendment,   shall be required.   (j) [Reserved].   (k) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any   determination as to whether the requisite Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any   amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any   departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan   Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any   action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, (I) any   Lender (alone or together with its Affiliates (but subject to clause (vi) below)) (other than (x) any   Lender that is a Regulated Bank and (y) any Committed Lender, and in the case of any   Committed Lender that is not a Regulated Bank, its Affiliates) that, as a result of its (or its   Affiliates’ (but subject to clause (vi) below)) interest, whether held directly or through any   intermediary, in any total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default swap or other   derivative contract (other than any such total return swap, total rate of return swap, credit default   swap or other derivative contract entered into pursuant to bona fide market making activities),   has a net short position with respect to either (1) the Loans and/or Commitments or (2) any other   Indebtedness and/or commitments in respect thereof of the Borrower or the other Loan Parties   (any such Indebtedness and/or commitments under this clause (2), the “Covered Indebtedness”)   (each, a “Net Short Lender”) shall have no right to vote any of its Loans and Commitments and   shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion   as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Net Short Lenders   (in each case unless otherwise agreed to by the Borrower) and (II) each Lender shall covenant to   provide the Borrower with such other information as the Borrower may reasonably request from   time to time in order to verify the accuracy of such Lender’s representation or warranty or   deemed representation or warranty with respect to not being a Net Short Lender, within five   Business Days of request thereof (the “Net Short Lender Verification Covenant”). For purposes   of determining whether a Lender (alone or together with its Affiliates (but subject to clause (vi)   below)) has a “net short position” on any date of determination: (i) derivative contracts with     
  192            respect to the Loans and/or Commitments and/or any Covered Indebtedness and such contracts   that are the functional equivalent thereof shall be counted at the notional amount thereof in   Dollars, (ii) notional amounts in other currencies shall be converted to the dollar equivalent   thereof by such Lender in a commercially reasonable manner consistent with generally accepted   financial practices and based on the prevailing conversion rate (determined on a mid-market   basis) on the date of determination, (iii) derivative contracts in respect of an index that includes   any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties or any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the   Borrower or other Loan Parties shall not be deemed to create a short position with respect to   either (1) the Loans and/or Commitments and/or (2) the Covered Indebtedness, so long as (x)   such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by such Lender or its Affiliates   (other than its Excluded Affiliates) and (y) the Borrower and other Loan Parties and any   instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties, collectively, shall   represent less than 5% of the components of such index, (iv) derivative transactions that are   documented using either the 2014 ISDA Credit Derivatives Definitions or the 2003 ISDA Credit   Derivatives Definitions (collectively, the “ISDA CDS Definitions”) shall be deemed to create a   short position with respect to either (1) the Loans and/or Commitments and/or (2) the Covered   Indebtedness if such Lender (or its Affiliates (other than its Excluded Affiliates) is a protection   buyer or the equivalent thereof for such derivative transaction and (x) the Loans and/or the   Commitments and/or any Covered Indebtedness are a “Reference Obligation” under the terms of   such derivative transaction (whether specified by name in the related documentation, included as   a “Standard Reference Obligation” on the most recent list published by Markit, if “Standard   Reference Obligation” is specified as applicable in the relevant documentation or in any other   manner), (y) the Loans and/or the Commitments and/or any Covered Indebtedness would be a   “Deliverable Obligation” under the terms of such derivative transaction or (z) any of the   Borrower or other Loan Parties (or any of their successors) is designated as a “Reference Entity”   under the terms of such derivative transactions, (v) credit derivative transactions or other   derivatives transactions not documented using the ISDA CDS Definitions shall be deemed to   create a short position with respect to either (1) the Loans and/or Commitments and/or (2) the   Covered Indebtedness if such transactions are functionally equivalent to a transaction that offers   such Lender or its Affiliates (other than its Excluded Affiliates) protection in respect of the   Loans and/or the Commitments and/or any Covered Indebtedness, or as to the credit quality of   any of the Borrower or other Loan Parties (or any of their successors) other than, in each case, as   part of an index so long as (x) such index is not created, designed, administered or requested by   such Lender or its Affiliates (other than its Excluded Affiliates) and (y) the Borrower and other   Loan Parties and any instrument issued or guaranteed by any of the Borrower or other Loan   Parties, collectively, shall represent less than 5% of the components of such index and (vi) in   connection with any such determination, each Lender shall either (A) reasonably inquire as to   whether its Ethically Screened Affiliates have any interest in the Loans and/or Commitments,   any such Covered Indebtedness and/or any applicable total return swap, total rate of return swap,   credit default swap or other derivative contract, and such Ethically Screened Affiliates’ interests   therein shall only be included in determining whether such Lender (alone or together with its   Affiliates) is a Net Short Lender to the extent determined from such reasonable inquiry or (B)   provide a certification or deemed certification to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that   such Lender is not coordinating or acting in concert with any of its Affiliates (other than any   Affiliates designated in writing by such Lender whose interests in the Loans and/or   Commitments, any such Covered Indebtedness and/or any applicable total return swap, total rate

In connection with any such determination, each   Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing that it is a   Net Short Lender, or shall otherwise be deemed to have represented and warranted to the   Borrower and the Administrative Agent that it is not a Net Short Lender (it being understood and   agreed that the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely on each such   representation and deemed representation; provided that if such determination relates to a notice,   consent, action or direction or requirement to undertake action relating to a Default or Event of   Default, such representation or deemed representation shall be deemed repeated at all times until   the resulting Default or Event of Default is cured or ceases to exist or the Loans hereunder are   accelerated. If, in connection with any determination as to whether the requisite Lenders have   (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment or waiver of any provision of this   Agreement or any other Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B)   otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the   Administrative Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action)   with respect to or under any Loan Document, in each case relating to a Default or Event of   Default (each, a “Default Direction”), but prior to the acceleration of the Loans, the Borrower   determines in good faith that there is a reasonable basis to believe a Lender that took such action   made an incorrect representation or warranty or deemed representation or warranty with respect   to not being a Net Short Lender, or otherwise at any relevant time on or following such action   was a Net Short Lender, the Borrower delivers a certificate of a Responsible Officer to the   Administrative Agent certifying that (i) the Borrower believes in good faith that there is a   reasonable basis to believe a Lender that gave a Default Direction (x) made an incorrect   representation or warranty or deemed representation or warranty with respect to not being a Net   Short Lender, or otherwise at any relevant time on or following such action was a Net Short   Lender or (y) breached the Net Short Lender Verification Covenant and (ii) the Borrower and/or   one of its Affiliates has filed papers with a court of competent jurisdiction seeking a   determination that such Lender made an incorrect representation or warranty or deemed   representation or warranty with respect to not being a Net Short Lender, or otherwise at any   relevant time on or following such action was a Net Short Lender, and seeking to invalidate any   Default or Event of Default that resulted from such action, the cure period with respect to such   Default or Event of Default shall be automatically stayed pending a final and non-appealable   determination of a court of competent jurisdiction on such matter. If such certificate of a   Responsible Officer has been delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent   shall refrain from acting in accordance with such any such request, demand, authorization,   notice, consent or waiver relating to such Default or Event of Default until such time as the     
  194            Borrower provides to the Administrative Agent a certificate of a Responsible Officer stating that   such Lender has satisfied its Net Short Lender Verification Covenant. If such Lender has   satisfied its Net Short Lender Verification Covenant, then the Administrative Agent shall be   permitted to act in accordance with such Default Direction.   11.2 Notices.

No failure to exercise and no delay in   exercising, on the part of any Agent, any Lender or any Loan Party, any right, remedy, power or   privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor   shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude   any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or   privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not   exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.     
  196            11.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and   warranties made hereunder and in the other Loan Documents (or in any amendment,   modification or supplement hereto or thereto) and in any certificate delivered pursuant hereto or   such other Loan Documents shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the   making of the Loans hereunder.   11.5 Payment of Expenses and Taxes. The Borrower agrees (a) to pay or   reimburse the Agents and the Other Representatives for (1) all their reasonable and documented   and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with (i) the syndication of   the Facilities and the development, preparation, execution and delivery of, and any amendment,   supplement or modification to, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other   documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, (ii) the consummation and   administration of the transactions (including the syndication of the Initial Term Loan   Commitments) contemplated hereby and thereby and (iii) efforts to monitor the Loans and   verify, protect, evaluate, assess, appraise, collect, sell, liquidate or otherwise dispose of any of   the Collateral in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, and (2) the reasonable and   documented fees and disbursements of one firm of counsel, solely in its capacity as counsel to   the Administrative Agent, and such other special or local counsel (limited to one firm of counsel   in each appropriate jurisdiction), consultants, advisors, appraisers and auditors whose retention   (other than during the continuance of an Event of Default) is approved by the Borrower, (b) to   pay or reimburse each Lender, each Lead Arranger and the Agents for all their reasonable and   documented and invoiced out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the   enforcement of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any other   documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith, including the fees and disbursements of   counsel to the Agents (limited to one firm of counsel for the Agents and, if necessary, one firm   of local counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case for the Agents), (c) to pay,   indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Lead Arranger and the Agents for, and hold each   Lender, each Lead Arranger and the Agents harmless from, any and all recording and filing fees   and any and all liabilities with respect to, or resulting from any delay in paying, any stamp,   documentary and other similar taxes, if any, which may be payable or determined to be payable   in connection with the execution, delivery or enforcement of, or consummation or administration   of any of the transactions contemplated by, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or   any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any   such other documents, and (d) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Lead Arranger,   each Agent (and any sub-agent thereof) and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons   (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against, any and all   other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses   or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever (in the case of fees and disbursements of   counsel, limited to one firm of counsel for all Indemnitees and, if necessary, one firm of local   counsel in each appropriate jurisdiction, in each case for all Indemnitees (and, in the case of an   actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs   the Borrower of such conflict and thereafter, after receipt of the Borrower’s consent (which shall   not be unreasonably withheld), retains its own counsel, of another firm of counsel for such   affected group of Indemnitees)) arising out of or relating to any actual or prospective claim,   litigation, investigation or proceeding, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory,   brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party and regardless of whether   any Indemnitee is a party thereto, with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement,

  199            (C) the Assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the   Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire;   (D) any assignment of Incremental Commitments or Loans to   an Affiliated Lender shall also be subject to the requirements of   Subsections 11.6(h) and (i); and   (E) any Loans or Commitments acquired by the Borrower or   any Restricted Subsidiary shall be retired and cancelled promptly upon   acquisition thereof.   For the purposes of this Subsection 11.6, the term “Approved Fund” has the following   meaning: “Approved Fund” means any Person (other than a natural person) that is   engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar extensions   of credit in the ordinary course and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b)   an Affiliate of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or   manages a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to make   assignments under this Agreement to any Disqualified Party, except to the extent the   Borrower has consented to such assignment in writing and any such assignment and   Disqualified Party shall be subject to the provisions of Subsection 11.6(m), except to the   extent the Borrower has otherwise expressly consented in writing.   (iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to clause (b)(iv)   below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the   Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by   such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this   Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest   assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this   Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance 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 (and bound by any   related obligations under) Subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.13 and 11.5, and bound by its   continuing obligations under Subsection 11.6(m) and Subsection 11.16). Any assignment   or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not   comply with Subsection 2.10(e), Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 11.1(g) or this   Subsection 11.6 shall, to the extent it would comply with Subsection 11.6(c), be treated   for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights   and obligations in accordance with clause (c) of this Subsection 11.6 (and any attempted   assignment, transfer or participation which does not comply with this Subsection 11.6   shall be null and void).   (iv) The Borrower hereby designates the Administrative Agent, and the   Administrative Agent agrees, to serve as the Borrower’s non-fiduciary agent, solely for   purposes of this Subsection 11.6, to maintain at one of its offices in New York, New   York, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the   recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and   interest and principal amount of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms     
  200            hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive   absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall   treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as   a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the   contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower (and, solely with   respect to entries applicable to such Lender, any Lender), at any reasonable time and   from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no   event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to   whether any Lender is an Affiliated Lender nor shall the Administrative Agent be   obligated to monitor the aggregate amount of Term Loans or Incremental Term Loans   held by Affiliated Lenders. Upon request by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower   shall use commercially reasonable efforts to (i) promptly (and in any case, not less than   five Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative Agent)   prior to the proposed effective date of any amendment, consent or waiver pursuant to   Subsection 11.1) provide to the Administrative Agent, a list of, to the Borrower’s   knowledge, all Affiliated Lenders holding Loans or Commitments at the time of such   notice and (ii) not less than five Business Days (or such shorter period as agreed to by the   Administrative Agent) prior to the proposed effective date of any amendment, consent or   waiver pursuant to Subsection 11.1, provide to the Administrative Agent, a list of, to the   Borrower’s knowledge, all Affiliated Debt Funds holding Loans or Commitments at the   time of such notice.   (v) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting for itself and, solely for   this purpose, as non-fiduciary 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, Commitments 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 to any Person   (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) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary (x) to establish that   such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under   Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or (y) for the Borrower to   enforce its rights hereunder. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive   absent manifest error, and a 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.   (vi) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance   executed by an assigning Lender (unless such assignment is being made in accordance   with Subsection 2.10(e), Subsection 4.13(d), Subsection 11.1(g), Subsection 11.6(f) or   Subsection 11.6(m)(iv) in which case the effectiveness of such Assignment and   Acceptance shall not require execution by the assigning Lender) and an Assignee, the   Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be   a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in this Subsection   11.6(b) and any written consent to such assignment required by this Subsection 11.6(b),   the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance, record the     
 
  201            information contained therein in the Register and give prompt notice of such assignment   and recordation to the Borrower. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this   Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this clause (vi).   (vii) On or prior to the effective date of any assignment pursuant to this   Subsection 11.6(b), the assigning Lender shall surrender to the Administrative Agent any   outstanding Notes held by it evidencing the Loans or Commitments, as applicable, which   are being assigned. Any Notes surrendered by the assigning Lender shall be returned by   the Administrative Agent to the Borrower marked “cancelled.”   Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 11.6(b) or any other   provision of this Agreement, if the Borrower shall have consented thereto in writing in its   sole discretion, the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the obligation, to   effectuate assignments of Loans, Incremental Commitments and Initial Term Loan   Commitments via an electronic settlement system acceptable to the Administrative Agent   and the Borrower as designated in writing from time to time to the Lenders by the   Administrative Agent (the “Settlement Service”). At any time when the Administrative   Agent elects, in its sole discretion, to implement such Settlement Service, each such   assignment shall be effected by the assigning Lender and proposed Assignee pursuant to   the procedures then in effect under the Settlement Service, which procedures shall be   subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower and shall be consistent with the   other provisions of this Subsection 11.6(b). Each assigning Lender and proposed   Assignee shall comply with the requirements of the Settlement Service in connection   with effecting any assignment of Loans and Commitments pursuant to the Settlement   Service. Assignments and assumptions of Loans and Commitments shall be effected by   the provisions otherwise set forth herein until the Administrative Agent notifies the   Lenders of the Settlement Service as set forth herein. The Borrower may withdraw its   consent to the use of the Settlement Service at any time upon notice to the Administrative   Agent, and thereafter assignments and assumptions of the Loans and Commitments shall   be effected by the provisions otherwise set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing,   it is understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, but not the   obligation, to effectuate assignments of Loans and Commitments via the ClearPar   electronic settlement system pursuant to procedures consistent with this Subsection   11.6(b), including execution and delivery of the Assignment and Acceptance (it being   understood that such execution and delivery may be by way of electronic signature) by   the parties to the assignment.   Furthermore, no Assignee, which as of the date of any assignment to it pursuant to   this Subsection 11.6(b) would be entitled to receive any greater payment under   Subsection 4.10, 4.11 or 11.5 than the assigning Lender would have been entitled to   receive as of such date under such Subsections with respect to the rights assigned (except   to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law   that occurs after such date), shall notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this   Agreement be entitled to receive such greater payments unless the assignment was made   after an Event of Default under Subsection 9.1(a), (b), (h) or (i) has occurred and is   continuing or the Borrower has expressly consented in writing to waive the benefit of this   provision at the time of such assignment.     
  202            (c) (i) Any Lender other than a Conduit Lender may, in the ordinary course of   its business and in accordance with applicable law, without the consent of the Borrower or the   Administrative Agent, sell participations (other than to any Disqualified Party or a natural   person) 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 Initial   Term Loan Commitments, Incremental Commitments, Extended Term Tranches and the Loans   owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain   unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the   performance of such obligations, (C) such Lender shall remain the holder of any such Loan for   all purposes under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, (D) the Borrower, the   Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender   in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, (E) [reserved], (F)   from time to time upon the reasonable request of the Borrower, each Lender shall provide the   Borrower a list of all outstanding voting participations in the Term Loans that such Lender has   sold and (G) in the case of any participation to a Permitted Affiliated Assignee, such   participation shall be governed by the provisions of Subsection 11.6(h)(ii) to the same extent as   if each reference therein to an assignment of a Loan were to a participation of a Loan and the   references to Affiliated Lender were to such Permitted Affiliated Assignee in its capacity as a   participant. Any agreement 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, supplement, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided   that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the   Participant, agree to any amendment, supplement, modification or waiver that (1) requires the   consent of each Lender directly affected thereby pursuant to clause (i) or (iii) of the second   proviso to the second sentence of Subsection 11.1(a) and (2) directly affects such Participant.   Subject to Subsection 11.6(c)(ii), the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to   the benefits of (and shall have the related obligations under) Subsections 4.10, 4.11, 4.13 and   11.5 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment   pursuant to Subsection 11.6(b). To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be   entitled to the benefits of Subsection 11.7(b) as though it were a Lender, provided that such   Participant shall be subject to Subsection 11.7(a) as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding   the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell or maintain a participation under this   Agreement to or with any Disqualified Party and any participation to a Person that is or at any   time becomes a Disqualified Party shall be null and void, except to the extent the Borrower has   expressly consented to such participation in writing; provided that if any such participation by a   Lender is subject to a sub-participation by such Disqualified Party to a Person that is not a   Disqualified Party or natural person, and such sub-participation if made as a participation   directly by such Lender would comply with Subsection 11.6, such sub-participant shall have the   right to assume all of the rights and obligations of such Disqualified Party under such   participation and thereby become a Participant hereunder in substitution for such Disqualified   Party (it being understood that such sub-participant shall, prior to the effectiveness of such   assumption, provide to such Lender that sold or maintained such participation all documentation   and information as is reasonably required by such Lender pursuant to “know your customer” and   anti-money laundering rules and regulations and execute and deliver an appropriate assumption   agreement to effect such substitution on terms and conditions mutually agreed between such sub-   participant and such Lender, and such Disqualified Party shall thereupon be deemed to have     
 
  203            executed and delivered such assumption agreement). Any such participation and Disqualified   Party not permitted prior to the foregoing sentence shall be subject to the provisions of   Subsection 11.6(m), except to the extent the Borrower has otherwise expressly consented in   writing. Any attempted participation which does not comply with Subsection 11.6 shall be null   and void.   (ii) No Loan Party shall be obligated to make any greater payment under   Subsection 4.10, 4.11 or 11.5 than it would have been obligated to make in the absence of   any participation, unless the sale of such participation is made with the prior written   consent of the Borrower and the Borrower expressly waives the benefit of this provision   at the time of such participation. Any Participant that is not incorporated under the laws   of the United States of America or a state thereof shall not be entitled to the benefits of   Subsection 4.11 unless such Participant complies with Subsection 4.11(b) and provides   the forms and certificates referenced therein to the Lender that granted such participation.   (d) Any Lender, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative   Agent, 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 or central bank of a member state of the European   Union, and this Subsection 11.6 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 (by foreclosure or otherwise) any such   pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.   (e) No assignment or participation made or purported to be made to any   Assignee or Participant shall be effective without the prior written consent of the Borrower if it   would require the Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any   Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction, and the Borrower shall be entitled to request and   receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any   Assignee or Participant to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or   whether any assignment or participation is otherwise in accordance with applicable law.   (f) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Conduit Lender may assign any or all of   the Loans it may have funded hereunder to its designating Lender without the consent of the   Borrower or the Administrative Agent and without regard to the limitations set forth in   Subsection 11.6(b). The Borrower, each Lender and the Administrative Agent hereby confirms   that it will not institute against a Conduit Lender or join any other Person in instituting against a   Conduit Lender any domestic or foreign bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or   liquidation proceeding under any state, federal or provincial bankruptcy or similar law, for one   year and one day after the payment in full of the latest maturing commercial paper note issued by   such Conduit Lender; provided, however, that each Lender designating any Conduit Lender   hereby agrees to indemnify, save and hold harmless each other party hereto for any loss, cost,   damage or expense arising out of its inability to institute such a proceeding against such Conduit   Lender during such period of forbearance. Each such indemnifying Lender shall pay in full any   claim received from the Borrower pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(f) within 30 Business Days of   receipt of a certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Borrower specifying in reasonable detail   the cause and amount of the loss, cost, damage or expense in respect of which the claim is being     
  204            asserted, which certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Without limiting the   indemnification obligations of any indemnifying Lender pursuant to this Subsection 11.6(f), in   the event that the indemnifying Lender fails timely to compensate the Borrower for such claim,   any Loans held by the relevant Conduit Lender shall, if requested by the Borrower, be assigned   promptly to the Lender that administers the Conduit Lender and the designation of such Conduit   Lender shall be void.   (g) If the Borrower wishes to replace the Loans under any Facility with ones   having different terms, it shall have the option, with the consent of the Administrative Agent and   subject to at least three Business Days’ (or such shorter period as agreed to by the Administrative   Agent in its reasonable discretion) advance notice to the Lenders under such Facility, instead of   prepaying the Loans to be replaced, to (i) require the Lenders under such Facility to assign such   Loans to the Administrative Agent or its designees and (ii) amend the terms thereof in   accordance with Subsection 11.1. Pursuant to any such assignment, all Loans to be replaced   shall be purchased at par (allocated among the Lenders under such Facility in the same manner   as would be required if such Loans were being optionally prepaid by the Borrower),   accompanied by payment of any accrued interest and fees thereon. By receiving such purchase   price, the Lenders under such Facility shall automatically be deemed to have assigned the Loans   under such Facility pursuant to the terms of the form of the Assignment and Acceptance, the   Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register and accordingly no other   action by such Lenders shall be required in connection therewith. The provisions of this clause   (g) are intended to facilitate the maintenance of the perfection and priority of existing security   interests in the Collateral during any such replacement.   (h) (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (x) any   Lender may, at any time, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this   Agreement in respect of its Loans or Commitments to any Parent Entity, the Borrower, any   Subsidiary or an Affiliated Lender and (y) any Parent Entity, the Borrower and any Subsidiary   may, from time to time, purchase or prepay Loans, in each case, on a non-pro rata basis through   (1) Dutch auction procedures open to all applicable Lenders on a pro rata basis in accordance   with customary procedures to be agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or   other applicable agent managing such auction); provided that (A) any such Dutch auction by the   Borrower or its Subsidiaries shall be made in accordance with Subsection 4.4(l) and (B) any such   Dutch auction by any Parent Entity shall be made on terms substantially similar to Subsection   4.4(l) or on other terms to be agreed between such Parent Entity and the Administrative Agent   (or other applicable agent managing such auction) or (2) open market or other privately   negotiated purchases; provided further that:   (1) such Affiliated Lender and such other Lender shall execute and   deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the   form of Exhibit K hereto (an “Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption”)   and the Administrative Agent shall record such assignment in the Register;   (2) at the time of such assignment after giving effect to such   assignment, the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans held (or   participated in) by Affiliated Lenders that are not Affiliated Debt Funds shall not     
 
  205            exceed 25.0% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding   under this Agreement; and   (3) (x) any such Loans or Commitments acquired by the Borrower or a   Restricted Subsidiary shall be retired or cancelled promptly upon the acquisition   thereof and (y) any such Term Loans acquired by an Affiliated Lender may, with   the consent of the Borrower, be contributed to the Borrower, whether through a   Parent Entity or otherwise, and exchanged for debt or equity securities of the   Borrower or such Parent Entity that are otherwise permitted to be issued at such   time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, so long as any Term Loans so   acquired by the Borrower shall be retired and cancelled promptly upon the   acquisition thereof.   (ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliated   Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund shall have any right to (A) attend (including by   telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative   Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited, (B)   receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender   or any communication by or among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more   Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials have been made available to   the Borrower or its representatives or (C) receive advice of counsel to the Administrative   Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or challenge their attorney client   privilege.   (iii) Notwithstanding anything in Subsection 11.1 or the definitions of   “Required Lenders” and “Required Majority in Interest Lenders” to the contrary, for   purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders or the Required Majority in   Interest Lenders, as applicable, have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment   or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any   departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any   Loan Document, or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent or any Lender to   undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any   Loan Document, an Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund shall be deemed   to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the   allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not such Affiliated   Lenders; provided that, (I) to the extent Lenders are being compensated by the Borrower   for consenting to an amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or any other action,   each Affiliated Lender who has been deemed to have voted its Loans in accordance with   this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii) shall be entitled to be compensated on the same basis as each   consenting Lender as if it had voted all of its Loans in favor of the applicable   amendment, supplement, modification, waiver or other action; and (II) no amendment,   supplement, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any Loan   Document shall deprive such Affiliated Lender of its ratable share of any payments of   Loans of any class to which such Affiliated Lender is entitled under the Loan Documents   without such Affiliated Lender providing its consent; provided, further, that such   Affiliated Lender shall have the right to approve any amendment, supplement,   modification, waiver or consent that (x) disproportionately and adversely affects such     
  206            Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender or affects such Affiliated Lender differently   in its capacity as a Lender than other Lenders or (y) is of the type described in   Subsections 11.1(a)(i) through (x) (other than subclause (v) and (vi)); and in furtherance   of the foregoing, (x) the Affiliated Lender agrees to execute and deliver to the   Administrative Agent any instrument reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent   to evidence the voting of its interest as a Lender in accordance with the provisions of this   Subsection 11.6(h)(iii); provided that if the Affiliated Lender fails to promptly execute   such instrument such failure shall in no way prejudice any of the Administrative Agent’s   rights under this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii) and (y) the Administrative Agent is hereby   appointed (such appointment being coupled with an interest) by such Affiliated Lender as   such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of   such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such Affiliated Lender, from time to time in   the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument   that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions   of this Subsection 11.6(h)(iii).   (iv) Each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund, solely in its   capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each Affiliated Lender Assignment and   Assumption agreement shall provide a confirmation that, if any of Holdings, the   Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary   bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency or liquidation proceeding (each, a “Bankruptcy   Proceeding”), (i) such Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action in such   Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede, or delay the exercise of any right or the   taking of any action by the Administrative Agent (or the taking of any action by a third   party that is supported by the Administrative Agent) in relation to such Affiliated   Lender’s claim with respect to its Term Loans (“Claim”) (including objecting to any   debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or   disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as such Affiliated Lender in   its capacity as a Lender is treated in connection with such exercise or action on the same   or better terms as the other Lenders and (ii) (with respect to any matter requiring the vote   of Lenders during the pendency of a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including voting on any   plan of reorganization), the Term Loans held by such Affiliated Lender (and any Claim   with respect thereto) shall be deemed to be voted in accordance with Subsection   11.6(h)(iii) above so long as such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender is treated   in connection with the exercise of such right or taking of such action on the same or   better terms as other Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each   Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated Debt Fund agree and acknowledge that the   provisions set forth in this Subsection 11.6(h)(iv) and the related provisions set forth in   each Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption constitute a “subordination   agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the United   States Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, it is their intention that this Subsection 11.6(h)(iv)   would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where Holdings, the Borrower or any   Restricted Subsidiary has filed for protection under any law relating to bankruptcy,   insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors applicable to Holdings, the Borrower or   such Restricted Subsidiary, as applicable. Each Affiliated Lender that is not an Affiliated   Debt Fund hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent (such appointment   being coupled with an interest) as such Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full     
 
  207            authority in the place and stead of such Affiliated Lender and in the name of such   Affiliated Lender (solely in respect of Loans, Commitments and participations therein   and not in respect of any other claim or status such Affiliated Lender may otherwise   have), from time to time in the Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and   to execute any instrument that the Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary   to carry out the provisions of this Subsection 11.6(h)(iv).   (v) Each Lender making an assignment to, or taking an assignment from, an   Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (1)   such Affiliated Lender then may have, and later may come into possession of Excluded   Information, (2) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Affiliated   Lender, Holdings, the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any   of their respective Affiliates, has made its own analysis and determination to enter into   such assignment notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded   Information and (3) none of Holdings, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative   Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and   such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such   Lender may have against Holdings, the Borrower, its Subsidiaries, the Administrative   Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to   the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender entering into such an   assignment further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to   the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.   (i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Subsection 11.1   or the definitions of “Required Lenders” and “Required Majority in Interest Lenders” (x) with   respect to any assignment or participation to or by an Affiliated Debt Fund, such assignment or   participation shall be made pursuant to an open market or other privately negotiated purchase   and (y) for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders or the Required Majority in   Interest Lenders, as applicable, have (i) consented (or not consented) to any amendment,   supplement, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any   Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (ii) otherwise acted on any   matter related to any Loan Document or (iii) directed or required the Administrative Agent,   Collateral Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with   respect to or under any Loan Document, all Loans and/or Commitments held by Affiliated Debt   Funds may not account for more than 49.9% of the Loans and/or Commitments of consenting   Lenders included in determining whether the Required Lenders or the Required Majority in   Interest Lenders, as applicable, have consented to any action pursuant to Subsection 11.1.   (j) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 11.6, nothing in   this Subsection 11.6 is intended to or should be construed to limit the Borrower’s right to prepay   the Loans as provided hereunder, including under Subsection 4.4.   (k) [Reserved].   (l) [Reserved].     
  208            (m) (i) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Agreement or any other Loan   Document to the contrary, if any Lender or Participant at any time is or becomes a Disqualified   Party, then for so long as such Lender or Participant shall be a Disqualified Party, the provisions   of this Subsection 11.6(m) shall apply with respect to such Disqualified Party unless the   Borrower shall have otherwise expressly consented in writing in its sole discretion (and   regardless of whether the Borrower shall have consented to any assignment or participation to   such Lender or Participant).   (ii) Any Disqualified Party shall be bound by the provisions of, but shall not   have any rights or remedies or be a beneficiary (whether as a Lender, a Participant or   otherwise) under or with respect to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document.   Without limiting the foregoing, a Disqualified Party (1) shall not be entitled to and shall   have no right to receive any payment in respect of principal (other than with respect to   payments of principal on the Maturity Date for the applicable Tranche), interest, fees,   costs, expenses or any other amount under or in respect of any Loan Document, including   but not limited to pursuant to Subsection 2.2, 4.1, 4.4, 4.5, 4.8, 4.10, 4.11, 11.5, 11.6(c) or   11.7 of this Agreement, Subsection 9.4 of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any   similar provision of any other Loan Document, and (2) shall be deemed not to be (w) a   Secured Party (as defined in the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement or any other   applicable Security Document) under or in respect of any Loan Document, (x) a Cash   Flow Secured Party (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement) under or in respect   of the Base Intercreditor Agreement, (y) an Original Senior Lien Creditor (as defined in   any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement) under or in respect of such Junior Lien   Intercreditor Agreement or (z) the analogous party under or in respect of any Other   Intercreditor Agreement. No fees or interest shall accrue for the account of a   Disqualified Party (except solely for interest payable to a permitted assignee thereof   following an assignment to such assignee (1) pursuant to and as expressly provided in   Subsection 11.6(b) and (2) pursuant to and as expressly provided in Subsection   11.6(m)(iv) below).   (iii) No Disqualified Party shall have any right to approve, disapprove or   consent to any amendment, supplement, waiver or modification of this Agreement or any   other Loan Document or any term hereof or thereof. In determining whether the requisite   Lender or Lenders have consented to any such amendment, supplement, waiver or   modification, and in determining the Required Lenders or the Required Majority in   Interest Lenders for any purpose under or in respect of any Loan Document, any Lender   that is a Disqualified Party (and the Loans and/or Commitments of such Disqualified   Party) shall be excluded and disregarded. Each such amendment, supplement, waiver or   modification shall be binding and effective as to each Disqualified Party.   (iv) The Borrower shall have the right (A) at the sole expense of any Lender   that is a Disqualified Party and/or the Person that assigned its Commitments and/or Loans   to such Disqualified Party, to seek to replace or terminate such Disqualified Party as a   Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign any or   all of its Commitments and/or Loans and its rights and obligations under this Agreement   to one or more assignees (which may, at the Borrower’s sole option, be or include any   Parent Entity, the Borrower or any Subsidiary); provided that (1) the Administrative     
 
  209            Agent shall not have any obligation to the Borrower to find such a replacement Lender,   (2) the Borrower shall not have any obligation to such Disqualified Party or any other   Person to find such a replacement Lender or accept or consent to any such assignment to   itself or any other Person and (3) the assignee (or, at its option, the Borrower) shall pay to   such Disqualified Party concurrently with such assignment an amount (which payment   shall be deemed payment in full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal amount of   the Loans so assigned, (y) the amount that such Disqualified Party paid to acquire such   Commitments and/or Loans, and (z) the most recently available quoted price for such   Commitments and/or Loans (as determined by the Borrower in good faith, which   determination shall be conclusive, the “Trading Price”), in each case without interest   thereon (it being understood that if the effective date of such assignment is not an Interest   Payment Date, such assignee shall be entitled to receive on the next succeeding Interest   Payment Date interest on the principal amount of the Loans so assigned that has accrued   and is unpaid from the Interest Payment Date last preceding such effective date (except as   may be otherwise agreed between such assignee and the Borrower)), or (B) to prepay any   Loans held by such Disqualified Party, in whole or in part, by paying an amount (which   payment shall be deemed payment in full) equal to the lesser of (x) the face principal   amount of the Loans so prepaid, (y) the amount that such Disqualified Party paid to   acquire such Loans, and (z) the Trading Price for such Loans (in each case without   interest thereon), and if applicable, terminate the Commitments of such Disqualified   Party, in whole or in part (provided that, in the case of any Disqualified Party pursuant to   clause (iii)(c) of the definition thereof, each Participant that has a participation in the   Commitments and/or Loans of such Disqualified Party shall be provided a bona fide and   reasonable opportunity to be assigned the Commitments and/or Loans in accordance with   clause (A) above in an aggregate amount equal to no less than the aggregate principal   amount of such participation). In connection with any such replacement, (1) if the   Disqualified Party does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly   completed Assignment and Acceptance and/or any other documentation necessary or   appropriate (in the good faith determination of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower,   which determination shall be conclusive) to reflect such replacement by the later of (a)   the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and   Acceptance and/or such other documentation and (b) the date as of which the   Disqualified Party shall be paid by the assignee Lender (or, at its option, the Borrower)   the amount required pursuant to Subsection 11.6(m)(iv)(B), then such Disqualified Party   shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance and/or   such other documentation as of such date and the Borrower shall be entitled (but not   obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Acceptance and/or such other   documentation on behalf of such Disqualified Party, and the Administrative Agent shall   record such assignment in the Register, (2) each Lender (whether or not then a party   hereto) agrees to disclose to the Borrower the amount that the applicable Disqualified   Party paid to acquire Commitments and/or Loans from such Lender and (3) each Lender   that is a Disqualified Party agrees to disclose to the Borrower the amount it paid to   acquire the Commitments and/or Loans held by it.   (v) No Disqualified Party (whether as a Lender, a Participant or otherwise)   shall have any right to (A) receive any information or material made available to any   Lender or the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document, (B)     
  210            have access to any Internet or intranet website to which any of the Lenders and the   Administrative Agent have access (whether a commercial, third-party or other website or   whether sponsored by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower or otherwise), (C) attend   (including by telephone) or otherwise participate in any meeting or discussions (or   portions thereof) among or with any of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and/or   one or more Lenders, (D) receive any information or material prepared by the Borrower,   the Administrative Agent and/or one or more Lenders or (E) receive advice of counsel to   the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any other Lender or challenge their   attorney client privilege. Any Disqualified Party shall not solicit or seek to obtain any   such information or material. If at any time any Disqualified Party receives or possesses   any such information or material, such Disqualified Party shall (1) notify the Borrower as   soon as possible that such information or material has become known to it or came into   its possession, (2) immediately return to the Borrower or, at the option of the Borrower,   destroy (and confirm to the Borrower such destruction) such information or material,   together with any notes, analyses, compilations, forecasts, studies or other documents   related thereto which it or its advisors prepared and (3) keep such information or material   confidential and shall not utilize such information or material for any purpose. Each   Lender (whether or not then a party hereto) agrees to notify the Borrower as soon as   possible if it becomes aware that (x) it made an assignment to or has a participation with   a Disqualified Party or (y) any such Disqualified Party has received any such information   of materials.   (vi) The rights and remedies of the Borrower provided herein are cumulative   and are not exclusive of any other rights and remedies provided to the Borrower at law or   in equity, and the Borrower shall be entitled to pursue any remedy available to it against   any Lender that has (or has purported to have) made an assignment or sold or maintained   a participation to or with a Disqualified Party or against any Disqualified Party. In no   event shall the Administrative Agent be obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to   whether (x) any Lender is a Net Short Lender or (y) any prospective assignee pursuant to   Subsection 11.6(b) is a Disqualified Party or have any liability with respect to or arising   out of any assignment or participation of Loans by the Lenders or disclosure of   confidential information by the Lenders, in each case, to any Disqualified Party; provided   that, unless the Borrower has expressly consented in writing to an assignment to an   applicable Disqualified Party, this sentence shall not relieve the Administrative Agent of   any liability arising from the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of the   Administrative Agent (as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final and   non-appealable decision).   (vii) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any other Loan   Document, any Assignment and Acceptance or any other document, the provisions of this   Subsection 11.6(m) shall apply and survive with respect to each Lender, Participant and   Disqualified Party notwithstanding that any such Person may have ceased to be a Lender   or Participant (or any purported participation to any such Disqualified Party shall be   void) hereunder or this Agreement may have been terminated.   11.7 Adjustments; Set-off; Calculations; Computations. (a) If any Lender (a   “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest

  212            Judgment Conversion Date. Any amount due from any Loan Party under this Subsection 11.8(b)   shall be due as a separate debt and shall not be affected by judgment being obtained for any other   amounts due under or in respect of any of the Loan Documents.   (c) The term “rate of exchange” in this Subsection 11.8 means the rate of   exchange at which the Administrative Agent, on the relevant date at or about 12:00 noon, New   York City time, would be prepared to sell, in accordance with its normal course foreign currency   exchange practices, the Obligation Currency against the Judgment Currency.   11.9 Counterparts.

Dispute related to property located in Valencia, PA, where the Company subleases a   facility to Vorteq through August 2024. In 2020, Vorteq sent the Company a default   notice claiming that the Company needed to invest approximately $390,000 for repairs at   the facility. The Company referred Vorteq to the lease document that requires the   subtenant to bear such expenses, Vorteq subsequently disagreed and withheld rent and   taxes of more than $500,000. The Company filed suit in 2020 and, after mediation, the   Company recovered all back taxes and provided Vorteq with a $25,000 rebate off of the   withheld rent (the “Valencia Dispute”).   3. Dispute related to the Silverline property located in Middlesex, NJ. In June 2020, the   Company surrendered the facility to the landlord upon the expiration of the lease. The   landlord help approximately $630,000 as a security deposit of which portions were to be   returned to the Company based on satisfying certain requirements. By the time of the   lease expiration, the landlord contested that there was damage to the fire suppressions   system after the landlord had already rented the building to another tenant, plus other   issues. The court remanded the matter to mediation that was unsuccessful. In early   February, the landlord filed a counterclaim against the Company, which was rejected by   the court. Trial is set for August 8, 2022 (the “Middlesex Dispute”).   4. MW Manufacturers Consent Decree.   5.

Schedule 5.6 to Term Loan Credit Agreement      9. In re Antidumping and Countervailing Duty Proceedings Before the U.S. Department of   Commerce (“DOC”) and U.S. International Trade Commission (“TC”). After a   proceeding aimed at applying high customs duties at fabricated structural steel (“FSS”)   was brought before the ITC and DOC, the Company had to pay the tariffs as they   imported FSS. However, after subsequent review by the ITC and DOC, the Company   received a refund of around $4.1 million. The matter has been appealed but the Company   plans to continue advocating their position that is imports of FSS should not be subject to   tariffs.   10. The Buildings division updated its EDS software to implement the updated standards of   the 9th Edition of the Massachusetts Building Code. In connection with this update, an   error was introduced whereby the software failed to check the design and correct for   unbalanced snow load design deficiencies and compliance. As such, the Company is   engaged in remedial actions on a total of 26 buildings. Currently 20 out of 26 buildings   are complete and the Company anticipates spending another $615,000 to address (the   “Massachusetts Building Matter”).   11. Maribel Bital et al. v. Simonton Industries, Inc. Et al. (Case No.: FC8054728), Solano   County, Superior Court of the State of California. Former employee filed a law suit   against Simonton Industries alleging certain violations of California’s meal and rest break   as well as wage and hours laws at all of the Company’s locations.

Nathaniel Williams et al. v. Ply Gem Pacific Windows Corporation et al. (Case No.:   2:22-cv-00038; 34-2021-00309657). Two plaintiffs represented by separate counsel filed   a nearly identical putative meal and rest break as well as wage and hour class action in   Sacramento County Superior Court against Ply Gem Pacific Windows Corporation. Ply   Gem removed that action to the Eastern District of California as well, and the two matters   were ordered related and are proceeding before the same judge (Judge Morrison C.   England). The plaintiffs also filed a motion to remand and the parties are currently   briefing that motion. This case has since been consolidated with the Ramirez Matter (as   noted above)   14. Waste Action Project v. Ply Gem Pacific Windows Corporation. On June 21, 2021, Ply   Gem Pacific was sued by Waste Action Project, a non-profit citizen organization, for   certain alleged stormwater permit violations at its Auburn, Washington facility under   Section 505 of the Clean Water Act: (i) noncompliance with water quality standards; (ii)   failure to implement best management practices to control water quality; (iii) failure to     
Schedule 5.6 to Term Loan Credit Agreement      implement corrective actions; (iv) failure to establish an adequate stormwater pollution   plan; (v) failure to collect and analyze quarterly samples; and (vi) failure to comply with   visual monitoring requirements.

In furtherance of, and subject to, the foregoing, each   Junior Priority Agent agrees that it will execute any and all Lien releases or other documents reasonably   requested by any Senior Priority Agent in connection therewith, so long as the net cash proceeds, if any,   from such sale described in clause (A) above of such Collateral are applied in accordance with the terms   of this Agreement. Each Junior Priority Agent hereby appoints the Senior Priority Representative and any   officer or duly authorized person of the Senior Priority Representative, with full power of substitution, as   its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power of attorney in the place and stead of such   Junior Priority Agent and in the name of such Junior Priority Agent or in the Senior Priority   Representative’s own name, from time to time, in the Senior Priority Representative’s sole discretion, for   the purposes of carrying out the terms of this paragraph, to take any and all appropriate action and to   execute and deliver any and all documents and instruments as may be necessary or desirable to   accomplish the purposes of this paragraph, including, without limitation, any financing statements,   endorsements, assignments, releases or other documents or instruments of transfer (which appointment,   being coupled with an interest, is irrevocable).   Section 2.5 [RESERVED]   Section 2.6 Waiver of Marshalling. Until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, each   Junior Priority Agent, on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby,   agrees not to assert and hereby waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any right to demand,   request, plead or otherwise assert or otherwise claim the benefit of, any marshalling or other similar right   that may otherwise be available under applicable law with respect to the Collateral or any other similar   rights a junior secured creditor may have under applicable law.     
 
     -35-               ARTICLE III      ACTIONS OF THE PARTIES   Section 3.1 Certain Actions Permitted. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary,   each Agent may make such demands or file such claims in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations or   Junior Priority Obligations, as applicable, owed to such Agent and the Creditors represented thereby as   are necessary to prevent the waiver or bar of such claims under applicable statutes of limitations or other   statutes, court orders, or rules of procedure at any time.   Section 3.2 Agent for Perfection.   (a) Subject to the provisions of the Base Intercreditor Agreement with respect to   ABL Priority Collateral, each Credit Party shall deliver all Control Collateral when required to be   delivered pursuant to the Credit Documents to (x) until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, the   Senior Priority Representative and (y) thereafter, the Junior Priority Representative.   (b) None of the Senior Priority Agents, the Senior Priority Representative or the   Senior Priority Secured Parties shall be responsible for perfecting and maintaining the perfection of Liens   with respect to the Collateral for the benefit of the Junior Priority Representatives or the Junior Priority   Secured Parties.   (c) Subject to the provisions of the Base Intercreditor Agreement with respect to   ABL Priority Collateral, in the event that any Secured Party receives any Collateral or Proceeds of the   Collateral in violation of the terms of this Agreement, then such Secured Party shall promptly pay over   such Proceeds or Collateral to (x) until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, the Senior Priority   Representative, and (y) thereafter, the Junior Priority Representative, in the same form as received with   any necessary endorsements, for application in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Base   Intercreditor Agreement, as supplemented by Section 4.1 hereof.   Section 3.3 Sharing of Information and Access. In the event that any Junior Priority Agent   shall, in the exercise of its rights under the applicable Junior Priority Collateral Documents or otherwise,   receive possession or control of any books and records of any Credit Party that contain information   identifying or pertaining to the Collateral, such Junior Priority Agent shall, upon request from any other   Agent, and as promptly as practicable thereafter, either make available to such Agent such books and   records for inspection and duplication or provide to such Agent copies thereof.

Proceeds of Collateral include insurance proceeds and, therefore, the   Lien Priority shall govern the ultimate disposition of casualty insurance proceeds. Subject to the   provisions of the Base Intercreditor Agreement with respect to ABL Priority Collateral, the Senior   Priority Representative shall be named as additional insured or loss payee, as applicable, with respect to   all insurance policies relating to Collateral.

Subject to the provisions of the Base Intercreditor   Agreement with respect to ABL Priority Collateral, all proceeds of such insurance shall be remitted to the   Senior Priority Representative, and each other Agent shall cooperate (if necessary) in a reasonable   manner in effecting the payment of insurance proceeds in accordance with Section 4.1. If any Junior   Priority Secured Party shall, at any time, receive any proceeds of any such insurance policy or any such   award in contravention of this Agreement, it shall pay such proceeds over to the Senior Priority   Representative in accordance with the terms of Section 4.1.   Section 3.5 No Additional Rights for the Credit Parties Hereunder. Except as provided in   Section 3.6, if any Secured Party shall enforce its rights or remedies in violation of the terms of this   Agreement, the Credit Parties shall not be entitled to use such violation as a defense to any action by any   Secured Party, nor to assert such violation as a counterclaim or basis for set off or recoupment against any   Secured Party.   Section 3.6 Actions upon Breach. If any Junior Priority Secured Party, contrary to this   Agreement, commences or participates in any action or proceeding against the Credit Parties or the   Collateral, the Credit Parties, with the prior written consent of the Senior Priority Representative, may   interpose as a defense or dilatory plea the making of this Agreement, and any Senior Priority Secured   Party may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its own name or in the name of the Credit   Parties. Should any Junior Priority Secured Party, contrary to this Agreement, in any way take, or attempt   or threaten to take, any action with respect to the Collateral (including, without limitation, any attempt to   realize upon or enforce any remedy with respect to this Agreement), or fail to take any action required by   this Agreement, any Senior Priority Agent (in its own name or in the name of the Credit Parties) may   obtain relief against such Junior Priority Secured Party by injunction, specific performance and/or other   appropriate equitable relief, it being understood and agreed by each Junior Priority Agent, for and on   behalf of itself and each Junior Priority Creditor represented thereby, that the Senior Priority Secured   Parties’ damages from such actions may be difficult to ascertain and may be irreparable, and each Junior   Priority Agent on behalf of itself and each Junior Priority Secured Creditor represented thereby, waives   any defense that the Senior Priority Secured Parties cannot demonstrate damages or be made whole by the   awarding of damages.   ARTICLE IV      APPLICATION OF PROCEEDS   Section 4.1 Application of Proceeds.   (a) Revolving Nature of Certain Cash Flow Obligations.

This Agreement constitutes a separate   agreement in writing as contemplated by clauses 4.1(d) third and 4.1(e) second of the Base Intercreditor   Agreement. The parties hereto agree that any Proceeds of Collateral to be allocated under such clauses of   the Base Intercreditor Agreement will be allocated first to the Senior Priority Obligations in accordance     
     -38-               with the Base Intercreditor Agreement until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, and then only   after such Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations to the Junior Priority Obligations, and each Junior   Priority Agent agrees, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, that   after the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations the remaining Proceeds of Collateral shall be applied,   first, to the payment of costs and expenses of each Junior Priority Agent, as applicable,   second, to the payment of Junior Priority Obligations owing to the Junior Priority   Secured Parties represented by each Junior Priority Agent in accordance with the applicable   Junior Priority Credit Facility, which payment shall be made between and among the Junior   Priority Obligations owing to Junior Priority Secured Parties represented by different Junior   Priority Agents on a pro rata basis (except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by   and between or among any applicable Junior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and   the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby), and   third, the balance, if any, to the Credit Parties or to whomsoever may be lawfully entitled   to receive the same or as a court of competent jurisdiction may direct.   Each Junior Priority Agent shall provide the Junior Priority Representative with such information   about the Junior Priority Obligations owing to the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented by it as they   may reasonably request in order to carry out the purposes of this Section 4.1.   (e) Limited Obligation or Liability. In exercising remedies, whether as a secured   creditor or otherwise, no Senior Priority Agent shall have any obligation or liability to any Junior Priority   Secured Party, or (except as may be separately agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable   Senior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority Creditors represented   thereby) to any other Senior Priority Secured Party, in each case regarding the adequacy of any Proceeds   or for any action or omission, save and except solely for an action or omission that breaches the express   obligations undertaken by such Senior Priority Agent under the terms of this Agreement. In exercising   remedies, whether as a secured creditor or otherwise, no Junior Priority Agent shall have any obligation   or liability (except as may be separately agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Junior   Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby) to   any other Junior Priority Secured Party, in each case regarding the adequacy of any Proceeds or for any   action or omission, save and except solely for an action or omission that breaches the express obligations   undertaken by such Junior Priority Agent under the terms of this Agreement.   (f) Turnover of Cash Collateral After Discharge. Subject to the obligations of each   Senior Priority Agent under the Base Intercreditor Agreement with respect to ABL Priority Collateral,   upon the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, each Senior Priority Agent shall deliver to the Junior   Priority Representative or shall execute such documents as the Company Representative or as the Junior   Priority Representative may reasonably request to enable it to have control over any Cash Collateral or   Control Collateral still in such Senior Priority Agent’s possession, custody or control in the same form as   received with any necessary endorsements, or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.   As between any Junior Priority Agent and any other Junior Priority Agent, any such Cash Collateral or   Control Collateral held by any such Party shall be held by it subject to the terms and conditions of   Section 3.2.     
 
     -39-               Section 4.2 Specific Performance. Each Agent is hereby authorized to demand specific   performance of this Agreement, whether or not any Credit Party shall have complied with any of the   provisions of any of the Credit Documents, at any time when any other Party shall have failed to comply   with any of the provisions of this Agreement applicable to it. Each Agent, for and on behalf of itself and   the Secured Parties represented thereby, hereby irrevocably waives any defense based on the adequacy of   a remedy at law that might be asserted as a bar to such remedy of specific performance.   ARTICLE V      INTERCREDITOR ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS AND WAIVERS   Section 5.1 Notice of Acceptance and Other Waivers.   (a) All Senior Priority Obligations at any time made or incurred by any Credit Party   shall be deemed to have been made or incurred in reliance upon this Agreement, and each Junior Priority   Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, hereby waives   notice of acceptance of, or proof of reliance by any Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditors   on, this Agreement, and notice of the existence, increase, renewal, extension, accrual, creation, or   nonpayment of all or any part of the Senior Priority Obligations.   (b) None of the Senior Priority Agents (including any Senior Priority Agent in its   capacity as Senior Priority Representative, if applicable), the Senior Priority Creditors, or any of their   respective Affiliates, or any of the respective directors, officers, employees, or agents of any of the   foregoing, shall be liable for failure to demand, collect, or realize upon any of the Collateral or any   Proceeds, or for any delay in doing so, or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise dispose of any   Collateral or Proceeds thereof or to take any other action whatsoever with regard to the Collateral or any   part or Proceeds thereof, except as specifically provided in this Agreement and the Base Intercreditor   Agreement. If any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor honors (or fails to honor) a request   by any relevant Borrower for an extension of credit pursuant to any Senior Priority Credit Facility or any   other Senior Priority Document, whether or not such Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor has   knowledge that the honoring of (or failure to honor) any such request would constitute a default under the   terms of any Junior Priority Credit Facility or any other Junior Priority Document (but not a default under   this Agreement) or would constitute an act, condition, or event that, with the giving of notice or the   passage of time, or both, would constitute such a default, or if any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority   Creditor otherwise should exercise any of its contractual rights or remedies under any Senior Priority   Documents (subject to the express terms and conditions hereof), no Senior Priority Agent or Senior   Priority Creditor shall have any liability whatsoever to any Junior Priority Agent or Junior Priority   Creditor as a result of such action, omission, or exercise, in each case so long as any such exercise does   not breach the express terms and provisions of this Agreement. Each Senior Priority Secured Party shall   be entitled to manage and supervise its loans and extensions of credit under the relevant Senior Priority   Credit Facility and other Senior Priority Documents as it may, in its sole discretion, deem appropriate,   and may manage its loans and extensions of credit without regard to any rights or interests that the Junior   Priority Agents or Junior Priority Creditors have in the Collateral, except as otherwise expressly set forth   in this Agreement.

     -40-               disposition is conducted in accordance with mandatory provisions of applicable law and does not breach   the provisions of this Agreement.   Section 5.2 Modifications to Senior Priority Documents and Junior Priority Documents.   (a) Each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority   Creditors represented thereby, hereby agrees that, without affecting the obligations of such Junior Priority   Secured Parties hereunder, each Senior Priority Agent and the Senior Priority Creditors represented   thereby may, at any time and from time to time, in their sole discretion without the consent of or notice to   any Junior Priority Secured Party (except to the extent such notice or consent is required pursuant to the   express provisions of this Agreement), and without incurring any liability to any such Junior Priority   Secured Party or impairing or releasing the subordination provided for herein, amend, restate,   supplement, replace, refinance, extend, consolidate, restructure, or otherwise modify any of the Senior   Priority Documents in any manner whatsoever, including, to:   (i) change the manner, place, time, or terms of payment or renew, alter or increase,   all or any of the Senior Priority Obligations or otherwise amend, restate, supplement, or otherwise   modify in any manner, or grant any waiver or release with respect to, all or any part of the Senior   Priority Obligations or any of the Senior Priority Documents;   (ii) subject to Section 2.5 of the Base Intercreditor Agreement, retain or obtain a Lien   on any Property of any Person to secure any of the Senior Priority Obligations, and in connection   therewith to enter into any additional Senior Priority Documents;   (iii) amend, or grant any waiver, compromise, or release with respect to, or consent to   any departure from, any guarantee or other obligations of any Person obligated in any manner   under or in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations;   (iv) subject to Section 2.4 of the Base Intercreditor Agreement, release its Lien on   any Collateral or other Property;   (v) exercise or refrain from exercising any rights against any Credit Party or any   other Person;   (vi) subject to Section 2.5 of the Base Intercreditor Agreement, retain or obtain the   primary or secondary obligation of any other Person with respect to any of the Senior Priority   Obligations; and   (vii) otherwise manage and supervise the Senior Priority Obligations as the applicable   Senior Priority Agent shall deem appropriate.   (b) Each Senior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority   Creditors represented thereby, hereby agrees that, without affecting the obligations of such Senior Priority   Secured Parties hereunder, and except as otherwise provided in the Base Intercreditor Agreement, each   Junior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby may, at any time and from   time to time, in their sole discretion without the consent of or notice to any such Senior Priority Secured   Party (except to the extent such notice or consent is required pursuant to the express provisions of this   Agreement and/or the Base Intercreditor Agreement), and without incurring any liability to any such

In the event of any conflict between the terms of   the Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of the Junior Lien   Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.”   In addition, each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties   represented thereby, agrees that each Junior Priority Collateral Document consisting of a mortgage   covering any Collateral consisting of real estate shall contain language appropriate to reflect the

If any Senior Priority Agent or   Senior Priority Creditor is required in any Insolvency Proceeding or otherwise to turn over or otherwise   pay to the estate of any Credit Party or any other Person any payment made in satisfaction of all or any   portion of the Senior Priority Obligations (a “Senior Priority Recovery”), then the relevant Senior Priority   Obligations shall be reinstated to the extent of such Senior Priority Recovery. In the event that (a) this   Agreement shall have been terminated prior to such Senior Priority Recovery and (b) there exist any   Junior Priority Obligations at the time of such Senior Priority Recovery, then this Agreement shall be   reinstated in full force and effect in the event of such Senior Priority Recovery, and such prior termination   shall not diminish, release, discharge, impair, or otherwise affect the obligations of the Parties from such   date of reinstatement. All rights, interests, agreements, and obligations of each Agent, each Senior   Priority Creditor, and each Junior Priority Creditor under this Agreement shall remain in full force and   effect and shall continue irrespective of the commencement of, or any discharge, confirmation,   conversion, or dismissal of, any Insolvency Proceeding by or against any Credit Party or any other   circumstance which otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Credit Party   in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations or the Junior Priority Obligations. No priority or right of any   Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor shall at any time be prejudiced or impaired in any   way by any act or failure to act on the part of any Borrower or any Guarantor or by the noncompliance by   any Person with the terms, provisions, or covenants of any of the Senior Priority Documents, regardless   of any knowledge thereof which any Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor may have.   ARTICLE VI      INSOLVENCY PROCEEDINGS   Section 6.1 DIP Financing.   (a) If any Borrower or any Guarantor shall be subject to any Insolvency Proceeding   in the United States at any time after the Discharge of ABL Collateral Obligations (as defined in the Base   Intercreditor Agreement) and prior to the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, and any Senior   Priority Agent, or any Senior Priority Creditors, shall agree to provide any Borrower or any Guarantor   with, or consent to a third party providing, any financing under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or   consent to any order for the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code (“DIP   Financing”), with such DIP Financing to be secured by all or any portion of the Collateral (including   assets that, but for the application of Section 552 of the Bankruptcy Code would be Collateral), then any   Junior Priority Agent, each on behalf of itself and any Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby,   agrees that it will raise no objection and will not directly or indirectly support or act in concert with any   other party raising an objection to such DIP Financing or to the Liens securing the same on the grounds of   a failure to provide “adequate protection” for the Liens of any Junior Priority Agent securing the Junior     
 
     -45-               Priority Obligations or on any other grounds (and will not request any adequate protection solely as a   result of such DIP Financing), so long as (i) such Junior Priority Agent retains its Lien on the Collateral to   secure the relevant Junior Priority Obligations (in each case, including Proceeds thereof arising after the   commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code) and such Lien has the same priority as existed   prior to the commencement of the case under the Bankruptcy Code and (ii) if the Senior Priority Agent   receives an adequate protection Lien on post-petition assets of the debtor to secure the Senior Priority   Obligations, as the case may be, each Junior Priority Agent also receives an adequate protection Lien on   such post-petition assets of the debtor to secure the relevant Junior Priority Obligations; provided that (x)   such Liens in favor of the Senior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Agent shall be subject to the   provisions of Section 6.1(b) hereof and the relevant provisions of Section 6.1 of the Base Intercreditor   Agreement, and (y) the foregoing provisions of this Section 6.1(a) shall not prevent any Junior Priority   Agent and the Junior Priority Secured Parties from objecting to any provision in any DIP Financing   relating to any provision or content of a Plan of Reorganization that is not a Conforming Plan of   Reorganization.   (b) All Liens granted to any Senior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Agent in any   Insolvency Proceeding, whether as adequate protection or otherwise, are intended by the Parties to be and   shall be deemed to be subject to the Lien Priority and the other terms and conditions of this Agreement;   provided, however, that the foregoing shall not alter any super-priority of any Liens securing any DIP   Financing in accordance with this Section 6.1 and, if applicable, Section 6.1 of the Base Intercreditor   Agreement.   Section 6.2 Relief from Stay. Until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, each Junior   Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees not   to (i) seek relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any   portion of the Collateral without each Senior Priority Agent’s express written consent or (ii) object to any   motion by any Senior Priority Agent seeking relief from the automatic stay or any other stay in any   Insolvency Proceeding in respect of any portion of the Collateral.   Section 6.3 No Contest. Each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior   Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that, prior to the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations,   none of them shall contest (or directly or indirectly support any other Person contesting) (i) any request   by any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor for adequate protection of its interest in the   Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.1 hereof), or (ii) any objection by any Senior Priority   Agent or Senior Priority Creditor to any motion, relief, action or proceeding based on a claim by such   Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor that its interests in the Collateral (unless in contravention   of Section 6.1 hereof) are not adequately protected (or any other similar request under any law applicable   to an Insolvency Proceeding), so long as any Liens granted to such Senior Priority Agent as adequate   protection of its interests are subject to this Agreement. Except as may be separately otherwise agreed in   writing by and between or among any applicable Senior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself   and any Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, any Senior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of   itself and any Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that, prior to the applicable Discharge   of Senior Priority Obligations, none of them shall contest (or directly or indirectly support any other   Person contesting) (a) any request by any other Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor   represented by such other Senior Priority Agent for adequate protection of its interest in the Collateral   (unless in contravention of Section 6.1 hereof), or (b) any objection by such other Senior Priority Agent   or any Senior Priority Creditor to any motion, relief, action, or proceeding based on a claim by such other     
     -46-               Senior Priority Agent or any Senior Priority Creditor represented by such other Senior Priority Agent that   its interests in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section 6.1 hereof) are not adequately protected   (or any other similar request under any law applicable to an Insolvency Proceeding), so long as any Liens   granted to such other Senior Priority Agent as adequate protection of its interests are subject to this   Agreement. Except as may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any   applicable Junior Priority Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and any Junior Priority Creditors   represented thereby, any Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and any Junior Priority   Creditors represented thereby, agrees that, prior to the applicable Discharge of Junior Priority Obligations,   none of them shall contest (or directly or indirectly support any other Person contesting) (a) any request   by any other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor represented by such other Junior   Priority Agent for adequate protection of its interest in the Collateral (unless in contravention of Section   6.1 hereof), or (b) any objection by such other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditor to any   motion, relief, action, or proceeding based on a claim by such other Junior Priority Agent or any Junior   Priority Creditor represented by such other Junior Priority Agent that its interests in the Collateral (unless   in contravention of Section 6.1 hereof) are not adequately protected (or any other similar request under   any law applicable to an Insolvency Proceeding), so long as any Liens granted to such other Junior   Priority Agent as adequate protection of its interests are subject to this Agreement.   Section 6.4 Asset Sales. Each Junior Priority Agent agrees, for and on behalf of itself and the   Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, that it will not oppose any sale consented to by any Senior   Priority Agent of any Collateral pursuant to Section 363(f) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar   provision under the law applicable to any Insolvency Proceeding) so long as the proceeds of such sale are   applied in accordance with the Base Intercreditor Agreement as supplemented by this Agreement.   Section 6.5 Separate Grants of Security and Separate Classification. Each Secured Party   acknowledges and agrees that (i) the grants of Liens pursuant to the Senior Priority Security Documents   and the Junior Priority Security Documents constitute separate and distinct grants of Liens and (ii)   because of, among other things, their differing rights in the Collateral, the Senior Priority Obligations are   fundamentally different from the Junior Priority Obligations and must be separately classified in any Plan   of Reorganization proposed, confirmed or adopted in an Insolvency Proceeding. To further effectuate the   intent of the parties as provided in the immediately preceding sentence, if it is held by a court of   competent jurisdiction that the claims of the Senior Priority Secured Parties, on the one hand, and the   Junior Priority Secured Parties, on the other hand, in respect of the Collateral constitute only one secured   claim (rather than separate classes of senior and junior secured claims), then the Secured Parties hereby   acknowledge and agree that all distributions shall be made as if there were separate classes of Senior   Priority Obligation claims and Junior Priority Obligation claims against the Credit Parties, with the effect   being that, to the extent that the aggregate value of the Collateral is sufficient (for this purpose ignoring   all claims held by the Junior Priority Secured Parties), the Senior Priority Secured Parties shall be entitled   to receive, in addition to amounts distributed to them in respect of principal, prepetition interest and other   claims, all amounts owing in respect of post-petition interest, fees and expenses that is available from the   Collateral for each of the Senior Priority Secured Parties, before any distribution is made in respect of the   claims held by the Junior Priority Secured Parties, with the Junior Priority Secured Parties hereby   acknowledging and agreeing to turn over to the Senior Priority Secured Parties amounts otherwise   received or receivable by them to the extent necessary to effectuate the intent of this sentence, even if   such turnover has the effect of reducing the aggregate recoveries. The foregoing sentence is subject to   any separate agreement by and between any Additional Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the   Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby, and any other Additional Agent, for and     
 
     -47-               on behalf of itself and the Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby, with respect to   the Obligations owing to any such Additional Agent and Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties.   Section 6.6 Enforceability. The provisions of this Agreement are intended to be and shall be   enforceable as a “subordination agreement” under Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code.   Section 6.7 Senior Priority Obligations Unconditional. All rights of the Senior Priority Agents   hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Junior Priority Agents and the Credit Parties (to the   extent applicable) hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:   (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Senior Priority Document;   (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of,   all or any portion of the Senior Priority Obligations, or any amendment, waiver or other   modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement,   refunding or restatement of any Senior Priority Document;   (iii) any exchange, release, voiding, avoidance or non-perfection of any security   interest in any Collateral or any other collateral, or any release, amendment, waiver or other   modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement,   refunding, restatement or increase of all or any portion of the Senior Priority Obligations or any   guarantee thereof;   (iv) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Company or   any other Credit Party; or   (v) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or   a discharge of, any Credit Party in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations, or of any of the   Junior Priority Agent or any Credit Party, to the extent applicable, in respect of this Agreement.   Section 6.8 Junior Priority Obligations Unconditional. All rights of the Junior Priority Agents   hereunder, and all agreements and obligations of the Senior Priority Agents and the Credit Parties (to the   extent applicable) hereunder, shall remain in full force and effect irrespective of:   (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Junior Priority Document;   (ii) any change in the time, place or manner of payment of, or in any other term of,   all or any portion of the Junior Priority Obligations, or any amendment, waiver or other   modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement,   refunding or restatement of any Junior Priority Document;   (iii) any exchange, release, voiding, avoidance or non perfection of any security   interest in any Collateral, or any other collateral, or any release, amendment, waiver or other   modification, whether by course of conduct or otherwise, or any refinancing, replacement,   refunding, restatement or increase of all or any portion of the Junior Priority Obligations or any   guarantee or guaranty thereof;     
     -48-               (iv) the commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding in respect of the Company or   any other Credit Party; or   (v) any other circumstances that otherwise might constitute a defense available to, or   a discharge of, any Credit Party in respect of the Junior Priority Obligations, or of any of the   Senior Priority Agent or any Credit Party, to the extent applicable, in respect of this Agreement.   Section 6.9 Adequate Protection. Except as expressly provided in this Agreement (including   Section 6.1 and this Section 6.9), nothing in this Agreement shall limit the rights of any Agent and the   Secured Parties represented thereby from seeking or requesting adequate protection with respect to their   interests in the applicable Collateral in any Insolvency Proceeding, including adequate protection in the   form of a cash payment, periodic cash payments, cash payments of interest, additional collateral or   otherwise; provided that (a) in the event that any Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself or any   of the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of the   relevant Junior Priority Obligations and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a Lien on   additional collateral comprising assets of the type of assets that constitute Collateral, then each Junior   Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that   (i) each Senior Priority Agent shall also be granted a senior Lien on such collateral as security for the   Senior Priority Obligations owing to such Senior Priority Agent and the Senior Priority Secured Parties   represented thereby, and that any Lien on such collateral securing the Junior Priority Obligations shall be   junior to any Lien on such collateral securing the Senior Priority Obligations and (ii) each other Junior   Priority Agent shall also be granted a pari passu Lien on such collateral as security for the Junior Priority   Obligations owing to such other Junior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented   thereby, and that any such Lien on such collateral securing such Junior Priority Obligations shall be pari   passu to each such other Lien on such collateral securing such other Junior Priority Obligations (except as   may be separately otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Junior Priority   Agents, in each case on behalf of itself and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby), and   (b) in the event that any Senior Priority Agent, for or on behalf of itself or any Senior Priority Creditor   represented thereby, seeks or requests adequate protection in respect of the Senior Priority Obligations   and such adequate protection is granted in the form of a Lien on additional collateral comprising assets of   the type of assets that constitute Collateral, then such Senior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and   the Senior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that (i) each other Senior Priority Agent shall   also be granted a pari passu Lien on such collateral as security for the Senior Priority Obligations owing   to such other Senior Priority Agent and the Senior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby, and that   any such Lien on such collateral securing such Senior Priority Obligations shall be pari passu to each such   other Lien on such collateral securing such other Senior Priority Obligations (except as may be separately   otherwise agreed in writing by and between or among any applicable Senior Priority Agents, in each case   on behalf of itself and the Senior Priority Secured Parties represented thereby) and (ii) each Junior   Priority Agent shall also be granted a junior Lien on such collateral as security for the Junior Priority   Obligations owing to such other Junior Priority Agent and the Junior Priority Secured Parties represented   thereby, and that any such Lien on such collateral securing such Junior Priority Obligations shall be junior   to each Lien on such collateral securing Senior Priority Obligations.     
 
     -49-               ARTICLE VII      MISCELLANEOUS   Section 7.1 Rights of Subrogation. Each Junior Priority Agent, for and on behalf of itself and   the Junior Priority Creditors represented thereby, agrees that no payment by such Junior Priority Agent or   any such Junior Priority Creditor to any Senior Priority Agent or Senior Priority Creditor pursuant to the   provisions of this Agreement shall entitle such Junior Priority Agent or Junior Priority Creditor to   exercise any rights of subrogation in respect thereof until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations   shall have occurred. Following the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations, each Senior Priority Agent   agrees to execute such documents, agreements, and instruments as any Junior Priority Agent or Junior   Priority Creditor may reasonably request to evidence the transfer by subrogation to any such Person of an   interest in the Senior Priority Obligations resulting from payments to such Senior Priority Agent by such   Person, so long as all costs and expenses (including all reasonable legal fees and disbursements) incurred   in connection therewith by such Senior Priority Agent are paid by such Person upon request for payment   thereof.   Section 7.2 Further Assurances. The Parties will, at their own expense and at any time and   from time to time, promptly execute and deliver all further instruments and documents, and take all   further action, that may be necessary or desirable, or that any Party may reasonably request, in order to   protect any right or interest granted or purported to be granted hereby or to enable such Party to exercise   and enforce its rights and remedies hereunder; provided, however, that no Party shall be required to pay   over any payment or distribution, execute any instruments or documents, or take any other action referred   to in this Section 7.2, to the extent that such action would contravene any law, order or other legal   requirement or any of the terms or provisions of this Agreement, and in the event of a controversy or   dispute, such Party may interplead any payment or distribution in any court of competent jurisdiction,   without further responsibility in respect of such payment or distribution under this Section 7.2.   Section 7.3 Representations. The Cash Flow Agent represents and warrants to each other   Agent that it has the requisite power and authority under the Cash Flow Documents to enter into, execute,   deliver, and carry out the terms of this Agreement on behalf of itself and the Cash Flow Secured Parties.   The Initial Junior Priority Agent represents and warrants to each other Agent that it has the requisite   power and authority under the Initial Junior Priority Documents to enter into, execute, deliver, and carry   out the terms of this Agreement on behalf of itself and the Initial Junior Priority Creditors. Each   Additional Agent represents and warrants to each other Agent that it has the requisite power and authority   under the applicable Additional Documents to enter into, execute, deliver, and carry out the terms of this   Agreement on behalf of itself and any Additional Credit Facility Secured Parties represented thereby.   Section 7.4 Amendments.   (a) No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and   no consent to any departure by any Party hereto, shall be effective unless it is in a written agreement   executed by each Senior Priority Agent and each Junior Priority Agent. Notwithstanding the foregoing,   the Company Representative may, without the consent of any Party hereto, amend this Agreement to add   an Additional Agent by (x) executing an Additional Indebtedness Joinder as provided in Section 7.11 or   (y) executing a joinder agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit C attached hereto as provided for in   the definition of “Cash Flow Credit Agreement” or “Initial Junior Priority Credit Facility”, as applicable.   No amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement, and no consent to any     
     -50-               departure therefrom by any Party hereto, that changes, alters, modifies or otherwise affects any power,   privilege, right, remedy, liability or obligation of, or otherwise adversely affects in any manner, any   Additional Agent that is not then a Party, or any Additional Credit Facility Secured Party not then   represented by an Additional Agent that is then a Party (including any change, alteration, modification or   other adverse effect upon any power, privilege, right, remedy, liability or obligation of or other effect   upon any such Additional Agent or Additional Credit Facility Secured Party that may at any subsequent   time become a Party or beneficiary hereof) shall be effective unless it is consented to in writing by the   Company Representative (regardless of whether any such Additional Agent or Additional Credit Facility   Secured Party ever becomes a Party or beneficiary hereof). Any amendment, modification or waiver of   any provision of this Agreement that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, through any reference   in any Credit Document to this Agreement or otherwise, of waiving, amending, supplementing or   otherwise modifying such Credit Document, or any term or provision thereof, or any right or obligation of   the Company or any other Credit Party thereunder or in respect thereof, shall not be given such effect   except pursuant to a written instrument executed by the Company Representative and each other affected   Credit Party.   (b) In the event that any Senior Priority Agent or the requisite Senior Priority   Creditors enter into any amendment, waiver or consent in respect of or replace any Senior Priority   Collateral Document for the purpose of adding to, or deleting from, or waiving or consenting to any   departures from any provisions of, any Senior Priority Collateral Document relating to the Collateral or   changing in any manner the rights of the Senior Priority Agent, the Senior Priority Creditors, or any   Credit Party with respect to the Collateral (including, subject to Section 2.4(b), the release of any Liens on   Collateral), then such amendment, waiver or consent shall apply automatically to any comparable   provision of each Junior Priority Collateral Document without the consent of or any actions by any Junior   Priority Agent or any Junior Priority Creditors; provided, that such amendment, waiver or consent does   not materially adversely affect the rights or interests of the Junior Priority Creditors in the Collateral   (including any license or right of use granted to them by any Credit Party pursuant to any Junior Priority   Collateral Document with respect to Intellectual Property owned by such Credit Party as it pertains to the   rights or interests of the Junior Priority Creditors in the Collateral). The applicable Senior Priority Agent   shall give written notice of such amendment, waiver or consent to the Junior Priority Agents; provided   that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the effectiveness of such amendment, waiver or consent   with respect to the provisions of any Junior Priority Collateral Document as set forth in this Section   7.4(b).   Section 7.5 Addresses for Notices. Unless otherwise specifically provided herein, any notice   or other communication herein required or permitted to be given shall be in writing and may be   personally served, faxed, sent by electronic mail or sent by overnight express courier service or United   States mail and shall be deemed to have been given when delivered in person or by courier service, upon   receipt of a facsimile or upon receipt of electronic mail sent (except that, if not given during normal   business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next   Business Day for the recipient) or five (5) days after deposit in the United States mail (certified, with   postage prepaid and properly addressed).

No failure on the part of any Party to exercise, and no   delay in exercising, any right hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial   exercise of any right hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other   right. The remedies herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law.   Section 7.7 Continuing Agreement; Transfer of Secured Obligations. This Agreement is a   continuing agreement and shall (a) remain in full force and effect (x) with respect to all Senior Priority   Secured Parties and Senior Priority Obligations, until the Discharge of Senior Priority Obligations,   subject to Section 5.3 and (y) with respect to all Junior Priority Secured Parties and Junior Priority   Obligations, until the later of the Discharge of the Senior Priority Obligations and the Discharge of the   Junior Priority Obligations, (b) be binding upon the Parties and their successors and assigns, and   (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Parties and their respective successors, transferees   and assigns. Nothing herein is intended, or shall be construed to give, any other Person any right, remedy   or claim under, to or in respect of this Agreement or any Collateral, subject to Section 7.10. All   references to any Credit Party shall include any Credit Party as debtor-in-possession and any receiver or   trustee for such Credit Party in any Insolvency Proceeding. Without limiting the generality of the   foregoing clause (c), any Senior Priority Agent, Senior Priority Creditor, Junior Priority Agent or Junior   Priority Creditor may assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of the Senior Priority Obligations or   the Junior Priority Obligations, as applicable, to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon   become vested with all the rights and obligations in respect thereof granted to such Senior Priority Agent,   Junior Priority Agent, Senior Priority Creditor or Junior Priority Creditor, as the case may be, herein or   otherwise. The Senior Priority Secured Parties and the Junior Priority Secured Parties may continue, at   any time and without notice to the other Parties hereto, to extend credit and other financial   accommodations, lend monies and provide Indebtedness to, or for the benefit of, any Credit Party on the   faith hereof.   Section 7.8 Governing Law; Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the rights and obligations   of the Parties under this Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and interpreted in accordance   with, the laws of the State of New York without giving effect to its principles or rules of conflict of laws   to the extent that such principles or rules are not mandatorily applicable by statute and would permit or   require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. This Agreement constitutes the entire   agreement and understanding among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes     
     -52-               any prior agreements, written or oral, with respect thereto (it being understood that this Agreement does   not supersede the Base Intercreditor Agreement).   Section 7.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts   (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and it is not necessary that the signatures of all   Parties be contained on any one counterpart hereof; each counterpart will be deemed to be an original, and   all together shall constitute one and the same document.   Section 7.10 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the rights and benefits hereof   shall inure to the benefit of each of the parties hereto and its respective successors and assigns and shall   inure to the benefit of each of the Senior Priority Agents, the Senior Priority Creditors, the Junior Priority   Agents, the Junior Priority Creditors and the Company and the other Credit Parties. No other Person shall   have or be entitled to assert rights or benefits hereunder.   Section 7.11 Designation of Additional Indebtedness; Joinder of Additional Agents.   (a) The Company Representative may designate any Additional Indebtedness   complying with the requirements of the definition of “Additional Indebtedness” as Additional   Indebtedness for purposes of this Agreement, upon complying with the following conditions:   (i) one or more Additional Agents for one or more Additional Credit Facility   Secured Parties in respect of such Additional Indebtedness shall have executed the Additional   Indebtedness Joinder with respect to such Additional Indebtedness, and the Company   Representative or any such Additional Agent shall have delivered such executed Additional   Indebtedness Joinder to the Cash Flow Agent, the Initial Junior Priority Agent and any other   Additional Agent then party to this Agreement;   (ii) at least five Business Days (unless a shorter period is agreed in writing by the   Parties and the Company Representative) prior to delivery of the Additional Indebtedness   Joinder, the Company Representative shall have delivered to the Cash Flow Agent, the Initial   Junior Priority Agent and any other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement complete and   correct copies of any Additional Credit Facility, Additional Guarantees and Additional Collateral   Documents that will govern such Additional Indebtedness upon giving effect to such designation   (which may be unexecuted copies of Additional Documents to be executed and delivered   concurrently with the effectiveness of such designation); and   (iii) the Company Representative shall have executed and delivered to the Cash Flow   Agent, the Initial Junior Priority Agent and any other Additional Agent then party to this   Agreement the Additional Indebtedness Designation (including whether such Additional   Indebtedness is designated Senior Priority Debt or Junior Priority Debt) with respect to such   Additional Indebtedness.   No Additional Indebtedness may be designated both Senior Priority Debt and Junior Priority Debt.   (b) Upon satisfaction of the conditions specified in the preceding Section 7.11(a), the   designated Additional Indebtedness shall constitute “Additional Indebtedness”, any Additional Credit   Facility under which such Additional Indebtedness is or may be incurred shall constitute an “Additional   Credit Facility”, any holder of such Additional Indebtedness or other applicable Additional Credit Facility     
 
     -53-               Secured Party shall constitute an “Additional Credit Facility Secured Party”, and any Additional Agent   for any such Additional Credit Facility Secured Party shall constitute an “Additional Agent” for all   purposes under this Agreement. The date on which such foregoing conditions specified in Section 7.11(a)   shall have been satisfied with respect to any Additional Indebtedness is herein called the “Additional   Effective Date” with respect to such Additional Indebtedness. Prior to the Additional Effective Date with   respect to any Additional Indebtedness, all references herein to Additional Indebtedness shall be deemed   not to take into account such Additional Indebtedness, and the rights and obligations of the Cash Flow   Agent, the Initial Junior Priority Agent and each other Additional Agent then party to this Agreement   shall be determined on the basis that such Additional Indebtedness is not then designated. On and after   the Additional Effective Date with respect to such Additional Indebtedness, all references herein to   Additional Indebtedness shall be deemed to take into account such Additional Indebtedness, and the   rights and obligations of the Cash Flow Agent, the Initial Junior Priority Agent and each other Additional   Agent then party to this Agreement shall be determined on the basis that such Additional Indebtedness is   then designated.   (c) In connection with any designation of Additional Indebtedness pursuant to this   Section 7.11, each of the Cash Flow Agent, the Initial Junior Priority Agent and each Additional Agent   then party hereto agrees at the Company’s expense (x) to execute and deliver any amendments,   amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, any   Cash Flow Collateral Documents, Initial Junior Priority Collateral Documents or Additional Collateral   Documents, as applicable, and any agreements relating to any security interest in Control Collateral and   Cash Collateral, and to make or consent to any filings or take any other actions (including executing and   recording any mortgage subordination or similar agreement), as may be reasonably deemed by the   Company Representative to be necessary or reasonably desirable for any Lien on any Collateral to secure   such Additional Indebtedness to become a valid and perfected Lien (with the priority contemplated by the   applicable Additional Indebtedness Designation delivered pursuant to this Section 7.11 and by this   Agreement), and (y) otherwise to reasonably cooperate to effectuate a designation of Additional   Indebtedness pursuant to this Section 7.11 (including if requested, by executing an acknowledgment of   any Additional Indebtedness Joinder or of the occurrence of any Additional Effective Date).   Section 7.12 Senior Priority Representative; Notice of Senior Priority Representative Change.   The Senior Priority Representative shall act for the Senior Priority Secured Parties as provided in this   Agreement, and shall be entitled to so act at the direction of the Requisite Senior Priority Holders from   time to time. Until a Party (other than the existing Senior Priority Representative) receives written notice   from the existing Senior Priority Representative, in accordance with Section 7.5 of this Agreement, of a   change in the identity of the Senior Priority Representative, such Party shall be entitled to act as if the   existing Senior Priority Representative is in fact the Senior Priority Representative. Each Party (other   than the existing Senior Priority Representative) shall be entitled to rely upon any written notice of a   change in the identity of the Senior Priority Representative which facially appears to be from the then   existing Senior Priority Representative and is delivered in accordance with Section 7.5 and such Agent   shall not be required to inquire into the veracity or genuineness of such notice. Each existing Senior   Priority Representative from time to time agrees to give prompt written notice to each Party of any   change in the identity of the Senior Priority Representative.   Section 7.13 Cash Flow Collateral Representative.

     -54-               Representative” under the Base Intercreditor Agreement and shall not act in such capacity, and for   purposes of determining the “Cash Flow Collateral Representative” under the Base Intercreditor   Agreement, the Additional Cash Flow Obligations (as defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement) of   such Junior Priority Creditors shall be disregarded and deemed not Additional Cash Flow Obligations (as   defined in the Base Intercreditor Agreement), (y) such Junior Priority Creditors shall be ineligible to vote   on matters requiring the consent or approval of the “Requisite Cash Flow Holders” under the Base   Intercreditor Agreement and (z) the Additional Cash Flow Obligations (as defined in the Base   Intercreditor Agreement) of such Junior Priority Creditors shall be disregarded and deemed not   outstanding for purposes of calculating “Requisite Cash Flow Holders” under the Base Intercreditor   Agreement.   Section 7.14 Provisions Solely to Define Relative Rights. The provisions of this Agreement are   and are intended solely for the purpose of defining the relative rights of the Senior Priority Secured   Parties and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, respectively.

This Agreement is the “Junior Lien Intercreditor   Agreement” referred to in the Cash Flow Credit Agreement, the Initial Junior Priority Credit Facility and   each Additional Credit Facility. Nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to subordinate the right of   any Junior Priority Secured Party to receive payment to the right of any Senior Priority Secured Party   (whether before or after the occurrence of an Insolvency Proceeding), it being the intent of the Parties that   this Agreement shall effectuate a subordination of Liens as between the Senior Priority Secured Parties,   on the one hand, and the Junior Priority Secured Parties, on the other hand, but not a subordination of   Indebtedness.   Section 7.20 No Warranties or Liability. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that none of the   other Parties has made any representation or warranty with respect to the execution, validity, legality,   completeness, collectability or enforceability of any other Cash Flow Document, any other Initial Junior   Priority Document or any other Additional Document.

Each Party hereby agrees that no   Party shall have any duty to advise any other Party of information known to it regarding such condition or   any such circumstances.
