SECTION 2.02. Making the Advances.
(a) Each Borrowing shall be made on notice, given not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior
to the date of the proposed Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars), given not later than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the fourth Business Day prior to the date of the proposed
Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing consisting of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Euros), or given not later than 1:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the Business Day of the proposed Borrowing (in the case of a Borrowing consisting of
Base Rate Advances), by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, which shall give to each Lender prompt notice thereof by transmission by facsimile or electronic communication. Each such notice of a Borrowing (a “Notice of Borrowing”)
shall be by transmission by facsimile or electronic communication, in substantially the form of Exhibit B hereto, specifying therein the requested (i) date of such Borrowing, (ii) Type of Advances comprising such Borrowing, (iii) aggregate amount

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such

Borrowing in accordance with subsection (a) of this Section 2.02 and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that such Lender shall

such Lender on the date on which such amount is so repaid to the Administrative Agent).

of its obligation, if any, hereunder to make its Advance on the date of such Borrowing, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on the date of any Borrowing.
SECTION 2.03. Swingline Loans.

Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and
continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph
by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.06 with respect to Swingline Loans or Advances made by such Lender (and Section 2.06 shall apply, mutatis
mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower in writing of
any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the
Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative
Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may
appear; provided that any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower (or such other Person)
for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

Letter of Credit is acceptable to such Issuing Bank in its reasonable discretion (it being understood that any such form shall have only explicit documentary conditions to draw), such Issuing Bank shall, unless such Issuing Bank has received
written notice from the Administrative Agent, at least one Business Day prior to the requested date of Issuance or amendment of the applicable Letter of Credit, that one or more applicable conditions contained in Section 3.02 shall not then be
satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, on the requested date, issue a Letter of Credit for the account of the Borrower or the applicable Subsidiary or enter into the applicable amendment, as the case may be, in each case in
accordance with such Issuing Bank’s usual and customary business practices. Additionally, the Borrower shall furnish to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent such other documents and information pertaining to such requested
Letter of Credit issuance or amendment, as such Issuing Bank or the Administrative Agent may reasonably require. In the event and to the extent that the provisions of any Letter of Credit Agreement shall conflict with this Agreement, the
provisions of this Agreement shall govern. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Issuing Banks may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank
Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary.
(ii) If the Borrower so requests in any applicable Notice of Issuance, the applicable Issuing Bank may, in its discretion, agree
to issue a Letter of Credit that has automatic extension provisions (each, an “Auto-Extension Letter of Credit”); provided that any such Auto-Extension Letter of Credit must permit the applicable Issuing Bank to prevent any such
extension at least once in each twelve-month period (commencing with the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit) by giving prior notice to the beneficiary thereof not later than a day (the “Non-Extension Notice Date”) in each such
twelve-month period to be agreed upon at the time such Letter of Credit is issued. Unless otherwise directed by the applicable Issuing Bank, the Borrower shall not be required to make a specific request to such Issuing Bank for any such
extension. Once an Auto-Extension Letter of Credit has been issued, the Lenders shall be deemed to have authorized (but may not require) the applicable Issuing Bank to permit the extension of such Letter of Credit at any time to an expiry date not
later than five Business Days before the Termination Date; provided, however, that the applicable Issuing Bank shall not permit any such extension if (A) such Issuing Bank has determined that it would not be permitted, or would have
no obligation, at such time to issue such Letter of Credit in its revised form (as extended) under the terms hereof (by reason of the provisions of Section 2.04(a) or otherwise), or (B) it has received notice (which may be by telephone or
in writing) on or before the day that is seven Business Days before the Non-Extension Notice Date (1) from the Administrative Agent that the Majority Lenders have elected not to permit such extension or (2) from the Administrative Agent, any Lender
or the Borrower that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 3.02 is not then satisfied, and in each such case directing such Issuing Bank not to permit such extension.
(c) Participations. By the Issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing or
decreasing the Available Amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a
participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Ratable Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby agrees to each such participation. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of such Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Ratable Share of each drawing made under a Letter of Credit funded by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the
Borrower as provided in Section 2.04(d), or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, which amount will be advanced, and deemed to be an Advance to the Borrower hereunder, regardless of the satisfaction of
the conditions set forth in Section 3.02. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such
payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender further acknowledges and agrees that its participation in each Letter of Credit will be automatically adjusted to reflect such Lender’s Ratable
Share of the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit at each time such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment is amended pursuant to a Commitment Increase in accordance with Section 2.18, an assignment in accordance with Section 8.07 or otherwise
pursuant to this Agreement.
(d) Drawing and Reimbursement. The Borrower shall reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for each disbursement under a
Letter of Credit issued by it (x) on the date of such disbursement if the Borrower receives written notice thereof from such Issuing Bank not later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such date or (y) within one Business Day of such
disbursement if the Borrower receives written notice thereof from such Issuing Bank later than 10:00 A.M. (New York City time) on such date.
The payment by an Issuing Bank of a draft drawn under any Letter of Credit which is not reimbursed by the Borrower in accordance with the foregoing sentence shall constitute for all purposes of
this Agreement the making by any such Issuing Bank of an Advance, which shall be a Base Rate Advance, in the amount of such draft (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof, in the case of a Letter of Credit issued in Euros). Each Issuing Bank shall give
prompt notice of each disbursement under any Letter of Credit issued by it to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and may at any time instruct the Administrative Agent to make demand on each Lender to fund its participation in such Letter of
Credit with regard to which the Borrower has failed to reimburse within the required time period. Upon written demand by the Administrative Agent, with a copy of such demand to such Issuing Bank and the Borrower, each Lender shall pay to the
Administrative Agent such Lender’s Ratable Share of such outstanding Advance pursuant to Section 2.04(c). Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to make Advances pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is
absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or Event of Default or reduction or
termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Promptly after receipt thereof, the Administrative Agent shall transfer such funds to
such Issuing Bank. Each Lender agrees to fund its Ratable Share of an outstanding Advance on (i) the Business Day on which demand therefor is made by such Issuing Bank, provided that notice of such demand is given not later than 11:00 A.M.
(New York City time) on such Business Day, or (ii) the first Business Day next succeeding such demand if notice of such demand is given after such time. If and to the extent that any Lender shall not have so made the amount of such Advance
available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date of demand by any such Issuing Bank until the date such amount is
paid to the Administrative Agent, at the Federal Funds Rate for its account or the account of such Issuing Bank, as applicable. If such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent such amount for the account of any such Issuing Bank on any
Business Day, such amount so paid in respect of principal shall constitute an Advance made by such Lender on such Business Day for purposes of this Agreement, and the outstanding principal amount of the Advance made by such Issuing Bank shall be
reduced by such amount on such Business Day.
(e) Letter of Credit Reports. Each Issuing Bank shall furnish (A) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender (with a
copy to the Borrower) on the first Business Day of each month a written report summarizing Issuance and expiration dates of Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the preceding month and drawings during such month under all Letters of
Credit issued by such Issuing Bank and (B) to the Administrative Agent and each Lender (with a copy to the Borrower) on the first Business Day of each calendar quarter a written report setting forth the average daily aggregate Available Amount
during the preceding calendar quarter of all Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.
(f) Failure to Make Advances. The failure of any Lender to make the Advance to be made by it on the date specified in
Section 2.04(d) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation hereunder to make its Advance on such date, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make the Advance to be made by such other Lender on such
date.
(g) Applicability of ISP and UCP; Limitation of Liability. Unless otherwise expressly agreed by the applicable Issuing
Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued, (i) the rules of the ISP shall apply to each standby Letter of Credit, and (ii) the rules of the UCP shall apply to each commercial Letter of Credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no
Issuing Bank shall be responsible to the Borrower for, and no Issuing Bank’s rights and remedies against the Borrower shall be impaired by, any action or inaction of such Issuing Bank required or permitted under any law, order, or practice that is
required or permitted to be applied to any Letter of Credit or this Agreement, including the law or any order of a jurisdiction where such Issuing Bank or the beneficiary is located, the practice stated in the ISP or UCP, as applicable, or in the
decisions, opinions, practice statements, or official commentary of the ICC Banking Commission, the Bankers Association for Finance and Trade - International Financial Services Association (BAFT-IFSA), or the Institute of International Banking Law
& Practice, whether or not any Letter of Credit chooses such law or practice.
(h) Letters of Credit Issued for Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder
is in support of any obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, the Borrower shall be obligated to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank hereunder for any and all drawings under such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges
that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of its Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Subsidiaries.
SECTION 2.05. Certain Fees.
(a) Facility Fee. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a facility fee
(the “Facility Fee”) on the average daily amount (whether used or unused) of such Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment from the Effective Date (in the case of each Bank) and from the effective date specified in the Assignment and Assumption
or the Assumption Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to which it became a Lender (in the case of each such Lender) until the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Lender and the Termination Date (or such later date on which
the Advances made by such Lender have been paid in full and the participations in Letters of Credit of such Lender have been terminated, but payable on the outstanding principal amount of such Advances and the aggregate Available Amount of
outstanding Letters of Credit) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Facility Fee Rate as in effect from time to time. Accrued Facility Fees shall be paid on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the
Termination Date (or such later date on which the Advances made by such Lender have been paid in full and the participations in Letters of Credit of such Lender have been terminated, but payable on the outstanding principal amount of such Advances
and the aggregate Available Amount of outstanding Letters of Credit); provided that, except as provided in Section 2.19(a)(iii), no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any facility fee in respect of its Revolving Credit
Commitment for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting Lender), other than a facility fee, as
described above, on the aggregate principal amount of Advances funded by such Defaulting Lender outstanding from time to time.
(b) Letter of Credit Fees.
(i) The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commission on such Lender’s Ratable
Share of the average daily aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding from time to time at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Rate Advances in effect from time to time. Accrued Letter of Credit
commissions shall be paid on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the Termination Date (or such later date on which the participations in Letters of Credit of such Lender have been terminated).
(ii) The Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Bank, for its own account, a fronting fee (i) with respect to each commercial Letter
of Credit issued by it, at the rate equal to 0.125% (or such lesser percentage as may be agreed by such Issuing Bank), computed on the Available Amount of such Letter of Credit, and payable upon the issuance thereof, (ii) with respect to any
amendment of a commercial Letter of Credit issued by it increasing the amount of such Letter of Credit, at a rate separately agreed between the Borrower and the applicable Issuing Bank, computed on the amount of such increase, and payable upon the
effectiveness of such amendment, and (iii) with respect to each standby Letter of Credit, equal to 0.125% per annum (or such lesser percentage as may be agreed by such Issuing Bank) payable on the Available Amount of each Letter of Credit issued by
it, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, and such other commissions, issuance fees, transfer fees and other fees and charges in connection with the Issuance or administration of each
Letter of Credit as the Borrower and such Issuing Bank shall agree.
(c) Administrative Agent’s Fee. The Borrower acknowledges its agreement to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the
Administrative Agent’s own account, an administrative agency fee at the times and in the amounts heretofore agreed between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 2.06. Reduction and Extensions of the Commitments.
(a) Commitment Reductions. The Borrower shall have the right, upon at least three Business Days’ notice to the
Administrative Agent, to terminate in whole or reduce ratably in part the unused portions of the respective Unused Commitments, the Unissued Letter of Credit Commitments or Swingline Commitment, provided that each partial reduction shall be in an
aggregate amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof. Once reduced or terminated, the Commitments may not be reinstated.
(b) Commitment Extensions.
(i) The Borrower may, by notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders) request that the Lenders
extend the Commitment Termination Date for up to two additional one‑year periods from the Commitment Termination Date then in effect hereunder (the “Existing Commitment Termination Date”); provided, that such extended Commitment
Termination Date shall not be later than the fifth anniversary of the date of such extension; provided, further, that no more than one such extension request may occur in any twelve-month period.
(ii) Each such Lender, acting in its sole discretion, shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent given no
later than the date that is 20 days after the date of the extension request (or, if such date is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day, the “Consent Date”), advise the Borrower and the Administrative Agent whether or not such
Lender agrees to such extension; provided that each Lender that determines not to so extend the Commitment Termination Date (a “Non‑Extending Lender”) shall notify the Administrative Agent (which shall notify the other
Lenders) of such fact promptly after such determination (but in any event no later than the Consent Date) and any Lender that does not so advise the Borrower on or before the Consent Date shall be deemed to be a Non‑Extending Lender. The election
of any Lender to agree to such extension shall not obligate any other Lender to so agree.
(iii) The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of each Lender’s determination under this Section no later than the
Consent Date.
(iv) If and only if the total of the Commitments of the Lenders that have agreed to extend their Commitment Termination Date
(after giving effect to any substitution of Lenders in accordance with Section 8.12) shall be more than 50% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitment in effect immediately prior to the applicable Consent Date, then, effective as of such Consent
Date, the Commitment Termination Date of each extending Lender shall be extended automatically, without any other action by any Person, to the date that is one year after the Existing Commitment Termination Date, provided that on the
Consent Date, the representations and warranties in Section 4.01 are true and correct as of such date and no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the
Lenders of each extension of the Commitment Termination Date pursuant to this Section 2.06(b).
SECTION 2.07. Repayment of Advances and Letter of Credit Drawings.
(a) Advances.
(i) The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for account of each Lender the entire outstanding principal
amount of such Lender’s Advances, and each Advance shall mature, on the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date applicable to such Lender and the Termination Date.
(ii) The Borrower hereby promises to pay to the Swingline Lender the entire outstanding principal amount of the Swingline Lender’s
Swingline Loans, and the Swingline Loans shall mature, on the earlier of the Commitment Termination Date and the date that is ten Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made; provided that on each date that an Advance is made, the
Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding.
(b) Letter of Credit Drawings. The obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and any Letter of Credit Agreement
and any other agreement or instrument relating to or any Letter of Credit shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such Letter of Credit Agreement and such other
agreement or instrument under all circumstances, including, without limitation, the following circumstances (it being understood that any such payment by the Borrower is without prejudice to, and does not constitute a waiver of, any rights the
Borrower might have or might acquire as a result of the payment by any Lender of any draft or the reimbursement by the Borrower thereof):
(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any Note, any Letter of Credit Agreement, any Letter of Credit or
any other agreement or instrument relating thereto (all of the foregoing being, collectively, the “L/C Related Documents”);
(ii) any change in the time, manner or place of payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the obligations of the
Borrower in respect of any L/C Related Document or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the L/C Related Documents;
(iii) the existence of any claim, set‑off, defense or other right that the Borrower may have at any time against any beneficiary
or any transferee of a Letter of Credit (or any Persons for which any such beneficiary or any such transferee may be acting), any Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with the transactions
contemplated by the L/C Related Documents or any unrelated transaction;
(iv) any statement or any other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or
insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;
(v) payment by any Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not comply
with the terms of such Letter of Credit;
(vi) any exchange, release or non‑perfection of any collateral, or any release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure
from any guarantee, for all or any of the obligations of the Borrower in respect of the L/C Related Documents;
(vii) waiver by any Issuing Bank of any requirement that exists for such Issuing Bank’s protection and not the protection of the
Borrower or any waiver by such Issuing Bank which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrower;
(viii) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of
a draft;
(ix) any payment made by any Issuing Bank in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the
expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the UCC, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable; or
(x) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including, without
limitation, any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or a guarantor.
SECTION 2.08. Interest.
(a) Ordinary Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance made by each
Lender, from the date of such Advance until such principal amount shall be paid in full, at the following rates per annum:
(i) Base Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Base Rate Advance, a rate per annum equal to the Base Rate in effect
from time to time plus the Applicable Margin for Base Rate Advances as in effect from time to time, payable quarterly in arrears on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December and on the date such Base Rate Advance
shall be Converted or paid in full.
(ii) Eurocurrency Rate Advances. If such Advance is a Eurocurrency Rate Advance, a rate per annum for each Interest
Period for such Advance equal to the sum of the applicable Benchmark for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Rate Advances as in effect from time to time, payable on the last day of such Interest Period and, if
such Interest Period has a duration of more than three months, on the day which occurs every three months after the first day of such Interest Period, and on the date such Eurocurrency Rate Advance shall be Continued, Converted or paid in full.
(iii) Swingline Loans. If such Advance is a Swingline Loan, a rate per annum for such Advance equal to the sum of the
LIBOR Daily Floating Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Rate Advances as in effect from time to time, payable in arrears on (i) if any Swingline Loan is outstanding on such date, the last Business Day of each March, June,
September and December and (y) the date such Swingline Loan is required to be, or is, repaid in full.
(b) Default Interest. The Borrower shall pay interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Advance that is not paid
when due (whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise), and on the unpaid amount of any interest, fee or other amount payable hereunder that is not paid when due, payable on demand, at a rate per annum during the period from the due
date thereof to the date on which such amount is paid in full equal to:
(i) in the case of any amount of principal of such Advance:
(x) in the case of any Base Rate Advance, 2% plus the rate which would otherwise be applicable to such Advance, and
(y) in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Dollars, for the balance of the then current Interest Period, 2% plus the rate which would
otherwise be applicable to such Advance for such Interest Period and thereafter, 2% plus the Base Rate as in effect from time to time and in the case of any Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Euros, 2% plus the rate which
would otherwise be applicable to such Advance, and
(ii) in the case of all other amounts, 2% plus the Base Rate as in effect from time to time.
(c) Limitation on Interest. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any Loan Document, the interest paid
or agreed to be paid under the Loan Documents shall not exceed the maximum rate of non‑usurious interest permitted by applicable law (the “Maximum Rate”). If the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender shall receive interest in
an amount that exceeds the Maximum Rate, the excess interest shall be applied to the principal of the Advances (or to Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit) or, if it exceeds such unpaid principal, refunded to the Borrower. In determining whether
the interest contracted for, charged, or received by the Administrative Agent, an Issuing Bank or a Lender exceeds the Maximum Rate, such Person may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, apply any excess to the payment of outstanding
principal, expenses, fees, or premiums rather than interest.
SECTION 2.09. Additional Interest on Eurocurrency Rate Advances. The Borrower shall pay to each Lender, so long as such Lender shall be
required under regulations of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurocurrency Liabilities (or the equivalent), additional interest on the unpaid
principal amount of each Eurocurrency Rate Advance of such Lender, from the date of such Eurocurrency Rate Advance until such principal amount is paid in full, at an interest rate per annum equal at all times to the remainder obtained by
subtracting (i) LIBOR for the then‑current Interest Period for such Eurocurrency Rate Advance from (ii) the rate obtained by dividing LIBOR by a percentage equal to 100% minus the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage of such Lender for such
Interest Period, payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Eurocurrency Rate Advance. Any Lender wishing to require payment of such additional interest shall so notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent and shall furnish to
the Borrower at least five Business Days prior to each date on which interest is payable on the Eurocurrency Rate Advances of such Lender a certificate (which certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error)
setting forth the basis for such assertion and the amount to which such Lender is then entitled under this Section (which shall be consistent with such Lender’s good faith estimate of the level at which the related reserves are being maintained by
it).
SECTION 2.10. Interest Rate Determinations; Changes in Rating Systems.
(a) The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Borrower and the Lenders of the applicable interest rate determined
by the Administrative Agent for the purpose of Section 2.08.
(b) If Bloomberg Screen LIBOR01 or Bloomberg Screen EURIBOR01 is unavailable,
(i) the Administrative Agent shall forthwith notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the interest rate cannot be determined for
such Eurocurrency Rate Advances for such Interest Period,
(ii) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if
such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Euros, be exchanged for Advances in a principal amount equal to the Equivalent in Dollars and be
Converted into a Base Rate Advance, and
(iii) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be
suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
(c) If, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the Majority Lenders notify the Administrative Agent that LIBOR or
EURIBOR, as applicable, for any Interest Period for such Advances will not adequately reflect the cost to such Majority Lenders of making, funding or maintaining their respective Eurocurrency Rate Advances in a specified currency for such Interest
Period, the Administrative Agent shall forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders, whereupon
(i) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance in such specified currency will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest
Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, Convert into a Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Euros, be exchanged for Advances in a principal amount equal to the
Equivalent in Dollars and be Converted into a Base Rate Advance, and
(ii) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances in the specified
currency shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and such Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist.
(d) If the Borrower shall fail to select the duration of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Rate Advances in accordance with
the provisions contained in the definition of “Interest Period” in Section 1.01, the Administrative Agent will forthwith so notify the Borrower and the Lenders and such Advances will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest
Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Dollars, Convert into Base Rate Advances and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advances are denominated in Euros, be Continued with an Interest Period of one month.
(e) Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default and upon notice from the Administrative Agent to the
Borrower at the request of the Majority Lenders, (x) each Eurocurrency Rate Advance will automatically, on the last day of the then existing Interest Period therefor, (A) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Dollars, Convert into a
Base Rate Advance and (B) if such Eurocurrency Rate Advance is denominated in Euros, be exchanged for Advances in a principal amount equal to the Equivalent in Dollars and be Converted into a Base Rate Advance and (y) the obligation of the Lenders
to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be suspended.
(f) If the rating system of either Moody’s or Standard & Poor’s shall change, or if either such rating agency shall cease
to be in the business of rating corporate debt obligations, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (on behalf of the Lenders) shall negotiate in good faith to amend the references to specific ratings in this Agreement to reflect such changed
rating system or the non‑availability of ratings from such rating agency (provided that any such amendment to such specific ratings shall in no event be effective without the approval of the Majority Lenders).
(g) On March 5, 2021 the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the regulatory supervisor of LIBOR’s administrator (“IBA”),
announced in a public statement the future cessation or loss of representativeness of overnight/Spot Next, 1-month, 3-month, 6-month and 12-month tenor settings for LIBOR. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan
Document:
(i) Replacing LIBOR. On the earlier of (1) the date that all Available Tenors of the LIBOR have either permanently or
indefinitely ceased to be provided by IBA or have been announced by the FCA pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative and (2) the Early Opt-in Effective Date, if the then-current Benchmark is LIBOR,
the Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any setting of such Benchmark on such day and all subsequent settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent
of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis.
(ii) If LIBOR has been replaced by a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to clause (g)(i) of this Section 2.10 and (I) the applicable
Benchmark Replacement on the effectiveness of such replacement was a Benchmark Replacement other than the Benchmark Replacement provided for in clause (1)(a) of the definition of Benchmark Replacement, (II) subsequently, the Relevant Governmental
Body recommends for use a forward-looking term rate based on SOFR for amounts denominated in Dollars and the Borrower requests that the Administrative Agent review the administrative feasibility of such recommended forward-looking term rate for
purposes of this Agreement and (III) following such request from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole discretion) that such forward looking term rate is administratively feasible for the Administrative Agent, then the
Administrative Agent may (in its sole discretion) provide the Borrower and Lenders with written notice that from and after a date identified in such notice the rate determined in accordance with clause (1)(a) of the definition of “Benchmark
Replacement” shall replace the then current Benchmark for all purposes hereunder; provided, however, that such forward looking term rate shall be deemed to be the forward looking term rate referenced in the definition of “Term SOFR” for all
purposes hereunder or under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting and any subsequent Benchmark settings, without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document. For
the avoidance of doubt, if the circumstances described in the immediately preceding sentence shall occur, all applicable provisions set forth in this Section 2.10(g) shall apply with respect to such election of the Administrative Agent as
completely as if such forward-looking term rate was initially determined in accordance with clause (1)(a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement”, including, without limitation, the provisions set forth in clauses (iii) and (vi) of this
Section 2.10(g).
(iii) Replacing Other and Future Benchmarks. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, the Benchmark Replacement
will replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any such Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the
Lenders without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark
Replacement from Lenders comprising the Majority Lenders. At any time that the administrator of any then-current Benchmark has permanently or indefinitely ceased to provide such Benchmark or such Benchmark has been announced by the regulatory
supervisor for the administrator or the administrator of such Benchmark pursuant to public statement or publication of information to be no longer representative and will not be restored, (a) with respect to amounts denominated in Dollars, the
Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Advances to be made, converted or continued that would bear interest by reference to such Benchmark until the Borrower’s receipt of notice from the Administrative
Agent that a Benchmark Replacement has replaced such Benchmark, and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Advances and (b) with respect to amounts
denominated in any currency other than Dollars, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Advances referencing such Benchmark in the affected currency shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected amounts or Interest Periods (as
applicable)) and any outstanding Advances in such currency shall immediately or, in the case of a term rate at the end of the applicable Interest Period, be prepaid in full. During the period referenced in the foregoing sentence, if a component of
the Base Rate is based upon the Benchmark, such component will not be used in any determination of the Base Rate.
(iv) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation and administration of any Benchmark
Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.
(v) Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and
the Lenders of (a) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (b) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. For the avoidance of doubt, any notice required to be delivered by the Administrative Agent as set forth
in this Section 2.10(g) may be provided, at the option of the Administrative Agent (in its sole discretion), in one or more notices and may be delivered together with, or as part of any amendment which implements any Benchmark Replacement or
Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.10(g), including any determination with
respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its
or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.10(g).
(vi) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. At any time (including in connection with the implementation of any Benchmark
Replacement), (a) if any then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR or LIBOR), then the Administrative Agent may remove any tenor of such Benchmark that is unavailable or non-representative for Benchmark (including Benchmark
Replacement) settings and (b) the Administrative Agent may reinstate any such previously removed tenor for Benchmark (including Benchmark Replacement) settings.
(h) Disclaimer. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any
liability with respect to (a) the administration, submission or any other matter related to the London interbank offered rate or other rates in the definition of LIBOR or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement
rate thereof (including, without limitation any Benchmark Replacement implemented hereunder), (b) the composition or characteristics of any such Benchmark Replacement, including whether it is similar to, or produces the same value or economic
equivalence to LIBOR or any other Benchmark or have the same volume or liquidity as did LIBOR or any other Benchmark, (c) any actions or use of its discretion or other decisions or determinations made with respect to any matters covered by this
Section 2.10(g) including, without limitation, whether or not a Benchmark Transition Event has occurred, the removal or lack thereof of unavailable or non-representative tenors, the implementation or lack thereof of any Benchmark Replacement
Conforming Changes, the delivery or non-delivery of any notices required by clause (v) above or otherwise in accordance herewith and (d) the effect of any of the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.10(g).
SECTION 2.11. Voluntary Conversion and Continuation of Advances.
(a) Optional Conversion. The Borrower may on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later
than 3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on the third Business Day prior to the date of the proposed Conversion and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.10 and 2.14, Convert all or any portion of the outstanding Advances denominated in Dollars of one
Type comprising part of the same Borrowing into Advances of the other Type; provided that (i) any Conversion of Base Rate Advances into Eurocurrency Rate Advances shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section
2.02(b) and (ii) in the case of any such Conversion of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance into a Base Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to
Section 8.04(c). Each such notice of a Conversion shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (x) the date of such Conversion, (y) the Advances to be Converted, and (z) if such Conversion is into Eurocurrency Rate Advances, the
duration of the initial Interest Period for each such Advance. Each notice of Conversion shall be irrevocable and binding on the Borrower.
(b) Continuations. The Borrower may, on any Business Day, upon notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than
3:00 P.M. (New York City time) on, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Dollars, the third Business Day and, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in Euros, the fourth Business Day prior to the date of the
proposed Continuation and subject to the provisions of Sections 2.10 and 2.14, Continue all or any portion of the outstanding Eurocurrency Rate Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing for one or more Interest Periods; provided that
(i) Eurocurrency Rate Advances so Continued and having the same Interest Period shall be in an amount not less than the minimum amount specified in Section 2.02(b) and (ii) in the case of any such Continuation on a day other than the last day of an
Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c). Each such notice of a Continuation shall, within the restrictions specified above, specify (x) the date of such Continuation, (y)
the Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be Continued and (y) the duration of the initial Interest Period (or Interest Periods) for the Eurocurrency Rate Advances subject to such Continuation. Each notice of Continuation shall be irrevocable and binding
on the Borrower.
This Section 2.11 shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued.
SECTION 2.12. Prepayments of Advances.
(a) The Borrower may, upon, (i) in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Dollars, at least
three Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, (ii) in the case of any prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance denominated in Euros, at least four Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, (iii) in the case of any prepayment of
a Base Rate Advance, same Business Day notice to the Administrative Agent and (iv) in the case of any prepayment of a Swingline Loan, same Business Day notice to the Swingline Lender stating the proposed date and aggregate principal amount of the
prepayment, and if such notice is given the Borrower shall, prepay the outstanding principal amounts of the Advances comprising part of the same Borrowing in whole or ratably in part, together with accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on
the principal amount prepaid; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an aggregate principal amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum or integral multiples of the Borrowing Multiple in excess thereof, (y)
after giving effect to any partial prepayment, each Advance shall have an outstanding principal amount not less than the Borrowing Minimum and (z) in the case of any such prepayment of a Eurocurrency Rate Advance on a day other than the last day of
an Interest Period therefor, the Borrower shall reimburse the Lenders in respect thereof pursuant to Section 8.04(c).
(b) Mandatory.
(i) If the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower at least two Business Days prior to any interest payment date that, on
such interest payment date, the sum of (A) the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Dollars plus the aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars then outstanding plus (B) the Equivalent in Dollars
(determined on the third Business Day prior to such interest payment date) of the aggregate principal amount of all Advances denominated in Euros plus (C) the aggregate principal amount of all Swingline Loans plus (D) the aggregate Available Amount
of all Letters of Credit denominated in Euros then outstanding exceeds 105% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of the Lenders on such interest payment date, the Borrower shall, as soon as practicable and in any event within two Business
Days after receipt of such notice, prepay the outstanding principal amount of any Advances owing by the Borrower in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such sum to an amount not to exceed 100% of the aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments of
the Lenders as of such interest payment date; provided that if the Borrower has Cash Collateralized Letters of Credit in accordance with Section 2.21(a), the aggregate Available Amount of the outstanding Letters of Credit shall be deemed to
have been reduced by the amount of such Cash Collateral. The Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice of any prepayment required under this Section 2.12(b)(i) to the Borrower and the Lenders.
(ii) Each prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be made together with any interest accrued to the date of such
prepayment on the principal amounts prepaid.
SECTION 2.13. Increased Costs.
(a) If, due to either (i) the introduction of or any change (other than any change by way of imposition or increase of reserve
requirements included in the Eurocurrency Rate Reserve Percentage) in or in the interpretation, administration, implementation or application of (to the extent any such introduction or change occurs after the date hereof) any law, rule, treaty or
regulation or (ii) the compliance with any guideline, rule, directive or request of any central bank or other governmental authority (including any supra-national body such as the European Union or the European Central Bank) adopted or made after
the date hereof (whether or not having the force of law), there shall be any increase in the cost (other than on account of (x) Indemnified Taxes, (y) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes
and (z) Connection Income Taxes) to any Lender of agreeing to make or making, funding or maintaining Eurocurrency Rate Advances or of agreeing to issue or of issuing or maintaining or participating in Letters of Credit, the Borrower shall from time
to time, within 30 days after delivery by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a certificate as to the amount of (and specifying in reasonable detail the basis for) such increased cost, pay (subject to Section
2.13(c)) to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender the amount of the increased costs set forth in such certificate (which certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error); provided that,
before making any such demand, each Lender agrees to use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Applicable Lending Office if the making of such a designation would
avoid the need for, or reduce the amount of, such increased cost and would not, in the reasonable judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
(b) If any Lender determines that compliance with any law, rule, treaty or regulation enacted or introduced after the date hereof
or any guideline, rule, directive or request of any central bank or other governmental authority (including any supra-national body such as the European Union or the European Central Bank) adopted or made after the date hereof (whether or not
having the force of law) affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender and that the amount of such capital or liquidity is increased by or
based upon the existence of such Lender’s commitment to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder and other commitments of such type or the issuance or maintenance of or participation in the Letters of Credit (or similar
contingent obligations), then, within 30 days after delivery by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a certificate as to (and specifying in reasonable detail the basis for) the Additional Amounts (as hereinafter
defined) requested by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay (subject to Section 2.13(c)) to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender, from time to time as specified by such Lender, the amount specified in such certificate (which
certificate shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error). For purposes hereof, the “Additional Amounts” that may be requested by any Lender under this Section 2.13(b) means such amounts as such Lender shall
reasonably determine to be sufficient to compensate such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender for any costs that such Lender reasonably determines are attributable to the maintenance by such Lender (or such corporation) of capital or
liquidity in respect of its commitments to lend or to issue or participate in Letters of Credit hereunder or to the issuance or maintenance of or participation in any Letters of Credit (such compensation to include, without limitation, an amount
equal to any reduction of the rate of return on assets or equity of such Lender (or such corporation) to a level below that which such Lender (or such corporation) could have achieved but for the enactment or introduction of such law or regulation
or the adoption or making of such guideline or request).
(c) The Borrower shall not be obligated to pay any additional amounts arising pursuant to clauses (a) and (b) of this Section
2.13 that are attributable to the Excluded Period with respect to such additional amount; provided, that if an applicable law, rule, regulation, guideline or request shall be adopted or made on any date and shall be applicable to the period
(a “Retroactive Period”) prior to the date on which such law, rule, regulation, guideline or request is adopted or made, the limitation on the Borrower’s obligations to pay such additional amounts hereunder shall not apply to the additional
amounts payable in respect of such Retroactive Period.
(d) For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.13 shall apply to all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital
adequacy issued in connection with the Dodd‑Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines or directives concerning capital adequacy promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel
Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign financial regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, regardless of the date adopted, issued, promulgated or implemented; provided
that any claim made by a Lender under this Section 2.13 shall be generally consistent with such Lender’s treatment of other customers of such Lender that such Lender considers, in its reasonable discretion, to (i) be similarly situated to the
Borrower and (ii) have generally similar provisions in their credit agreements with such Lender.
SECTION 2.14. Illegality. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent that the
introduction of or any change in or in the interpretation of any law or regulation makes it unlawful, or any central bank or other governmental authority (including any supra-national body such as the European Union or the European Central Bank)
asserts that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to perform its obligations hereunder to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or Euros or to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances in Dollars or Euros
hereunder, then, on notice thereof and demand therefor by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, (i) the obligation of the Lenders to make or Continue, or to Convert Advances into, Eurocurrency Rate Advances denominated in
the affected currency shall be suspended until the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances causing such suspension no longer exist and (ii) the Borrower shall upon demand prepay in full all Eurocurrency
Rate Advances denominated in the affected currency of all Lenders then outstanding, together with interest accrued thereon, unless the Borrower, within five Business Days of notice from the Administrative Agent, exchanges all Eurocurrency Rate
Advances denominated in the affected currency of all the Lenders then outstanding into Advances in a principal amount equal to the Equivalent in an unaffected currency; provided that, before making any such demand, such Lender agrees to use
reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy and legal and regulatory restrictions) to designate a different Eurocurrency Lending Office if the making of such a designation would allow such Lender or its Eurocurrency Lending Office to
continue to perform its obligations to make Eurocurrency Rate Advances or to continue to fund or maintain Eurocurrency Rate Advances and would not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.
SECTION 2.15. Payments and Computations.
(a) The Borrower shall make each payment hereunder with respect to principal of, interest on, and other amounts relating to,
Advances denominated in (i) Dollars, without set‑off or counterclaim, not later than 12:00 P.M. or (ii) Euros, without set‑off or counterclaim, not later than 11:00 A.M., in each case (at the applicable Agent’s Account for such currency) on the day
when due in such currency to the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, by deposit of such funds to the applicable Agent’s Account in same day funds. The Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter cause to be distributed
like funds relating to the payment of principal, interest, Facility Fees or Letter of Credit commissions ratably (other than amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.09, 2.13, or 2.16 or 8.04(c)) to the Lenders for the account of their respective
Applicable Lending Offices, and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender for the account of its Applicable Lending Office, in each case to be applied in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement. Upon its acceptance of an Assignment and Assumption and recording of the information contained therein in the Register pursuant to Section 8.07(c), from and after the effective date specified in such Assignment and Assumption, the
Administrative Agent shall make all payments hereunder in respect of the interest assigned thereby to the Lender assignee thereunder, and the parties to such Assignment and Assumption shall make all appropriate adjustments in such payments for
periods prior to such effective date directly between themselves.
(b) All computations of interest based on Citibank’s base rate shall be made by the Administrative Agent on the basis of a year
of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and all computations of interest based on LIBOR or the Federal Funds Rate and of Facility Fees and Letter of Credit commissions shall be made by the Administrative Agent, and all computations of interest
pursuant to Section 2.09 shall be made by a Lender, on the basis of a year of 360 days (or, in each case of Advances denominated in Euros where market practice differs, in accordance with such market practice), in each case for the actual number of
days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring in the period for which such interest, Facility Fees or Letter of Credit commissions are payable. Each determination by the Administrative Agent of an interest rate hereunder
shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes, absent manifest error.
(c) Whenever any payment hereunder or under the Advances would be due on a day other than a Business Day, such due date shall be
extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and any such extension of such due date shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest, Facility Fee or Letter of Credit commission, as the case may be; provided, however,
if such extension would cause payment of interest on or principal of Eurocurrency Rate Advances to be made in the next following calendar month, such payment shall be made on the next preceding Business Day.
(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to
the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance
upon such assumption, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each
Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such
amount to the Administrative Agent, at (i) the Federal Funds Rate in the case of Advances denominated in Dollars or (ii) the cost of funds incurred by the Administrative Agent in respect of such amount in the case of Advances denominated in Euro.
SECTION 2.16. Taxes.
(a) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan
Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or
withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant
governmental authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made (including such
deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant governmental authority in
accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.
(c) Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within 30 days after demand therefor,
for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such
Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount of such
payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
(d) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 30 days
after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the
Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 8.07(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case,
that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the
relevant governmental authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to
set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
paragraph (d).
(e) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower to a governmental authority
pursuant to this Section 2.16, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such governmental authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other
evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.
(f) Status of Lenders.
(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan
Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or
the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.16(f) (ii)(A),
(ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or
commercial position of such Lender.
(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which
such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal
backup withholding tax;
(B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:
1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments
of interest under any Loan Document, executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other
applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
2) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;
3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a
certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section
881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed originals of IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or
4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed originals of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form
W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-2 or Exhibit E-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership
and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit E-4 on behalf of each such
direct and indirect partner;
(C) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the
Administrative Agent), executed originals of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be
prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if
such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at
the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and
such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has
complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify
the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.
(g) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has
received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.16 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund
(but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than
any interest paid by the relevant governmental authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g)
(plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant governmental authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such governmental authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than
the indemnified party would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns
(or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
(h) Survival. The obligations of each party hereto under this Section 2.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement
of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
SECTION 2.17. Sharing of Payments, Etc. If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any
right of set‑off, or otherwise) on account of the Advances made by it in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of the Advances obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lenders such participations
in the Advances made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them, provided, however, that (a) if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter
recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and such Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable
share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the
total amount so recovered and (b) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to (x) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds
arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (y) any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Advances to any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower (as to
which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 2.17 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law, exercise all its rights of
payment (including the right of set‑off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation.
SECTION 2.18. Increase in the Aggregate Revolving Credit Commitments.
(a) The Borrower may, at any time but in any event not more than one time a year, by notice to the Administrative Agent, request
that the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments be increased by an amount of $25,000,000 or an integral multiple thereof (each a “Commitment Increase”) to be effective as of a date that is at least 90 days prior to the
Termination Date (the “Increase Date”) as specified in the related notice to the Administrative Agent; provided, however that (i) in no event shall the aggregate amount of the Revolving Credit Commitments at any time exceed
$3,250,000,000 and (ii) on the related Increase Date, the applicable conditions set forth in Article III shall be satisfied. The Borrower may simultaneously (x) request one or more of the Lenders to increase the amount of its Revolving Credit
Commitment and/or (y) arrange for one or more banks or financial institutions not a party hereto to become parties to and Lenders under this Agreement, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth below.
(b) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify such of the Lenders and one or more Eligible Assignees as are identified by
the Borrower to receive the invitation to participate in the requested Commitment Increase of a request by the Borrower for a Commitment Increase, which notice shall include (i) the proposed amount of such requested Commitment Increase, (ii) the
proposed Increase Date and (iii) the date by which such Lenders or Eligible Assignees (each such Eligible Assignee and each Eligible Assignee that agrees to an extension of its Commitment Termination Date in accordance with Section 2.06(b), an “Assuming
Lender”) wishing to participate in the Commitment Increase must commit to increase the amount of their respective Revolving Credit Commitments or to establish their respective Revolving Credit Commitments, as the case may be (the “Commitment
Date”); provided, however, that the Revolving Credit Commitment of each such Eligible Assignee shall be in an amount of $5,000,000 or more. Each Lender that is willing to participate in such requested Commitment Increase
(each an “Increasing Lender”) shall, in its sole discretion, give written notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Commitment Date of the amount by which it is willing to increase its Revolving Credit Commitment. The requested
Commitment Increase shall be allocated among the Lenders willing to participate therein and the Assuming Lenders in such amounts as are specified by the Borrower and approved by each Issuing Bank.
(c) On each Increase Date, each Assuming Lender shall become a Lender party to this Agreement as of such Increase Date and the
Revolving Credit Commitment of each Increasing Lender for such requested Commitment Increase shall be so increased by such amount (or by the amount allocated to such Lender pursuant to the last sentence of Section 2.18(b)) as of such Increase Date;
provided, however, that the Administrative Agent shall have received on or before such Increase Date the following, each dated such date:
(i) (A) certified copies of resolutions of the Board of Directors of the Borrower or the executive committee of such Board
approving the Commitment Increase and the corresponding modifications to this Agreement and (B) if reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, an opinion of counsel for the Borrower (which may be in‑house counsel);
(ii) an assumption agreement from each Assuming Lender, if any, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and
the Administrative Agent (each an “Assumption Agreement”), duly executed by such Eligible Assignee, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower; and
(iii) confirmation from each Increasing Lender of the increase in the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitment in a writing
reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.
On each Increase Date, upon fulfillment of the conditions set forth in Section 2.18(a) and in the immediately preceding sentence of this Section 2.18(c), the Administrative Agent shall notify the
Lenders (including, without limitation, each Assuming Lender) and the Borrower, on or before 1:00 P.M. (New York City time), by transmission by facsimile or electronic communication, of the occurrence of the Commitment Increase to be effected on
such Increase Date and shall record in the Register the relevant information with respect to each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender on such date. Each Increasing Lender and each Assuming Lender shall, before 2:00 P.M. (New York City time)
on the Increase Date, purchase at par such of the Advances of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Advances in accordance with its pro rata share.
SECTION 2.19. Defaulting Lenders.
(a) Defaulting Lender Adjustments. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender
becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:
(i) Waivers and Amendments. The Revolving Credit Commitment and Advances of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included
in determining whether the Majority Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification pursuant to Section 8.01); provided, that this clause (i) shall not apply to the
vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification requiring the consent of each Lender affected thereby.
(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the
Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VI or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 8.05 shall be
applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro
rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank hereunder; fourth, to Cash
Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ and Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.21; fifth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the
funding of any Advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; sixth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the
Borrower, to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding obligations with respect to Advances under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ or the
Swingline Lender’s future Fronting Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued or Swingline Loans made under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.21; seventh, to the payment of any
amounts owing to the Lenders, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Banks as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Banks against such Defaulting Lender as a result
of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; eighth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent
jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and ninth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of
competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Advances or L/C Obligations in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such Advances
were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.02 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Advances of, and L/C Obligations owed to, all Non‑Defaulting
Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Advances of, or L/C Obligations owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Advances and funded and unfunded participations in L/C Obligations are held by the
Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments without giving effect to Section 2.19(b)(iv). Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by
a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.19(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.
(iii) Certain Fees. (A) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive a Facility Fee for any period during which
that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to extent allocable to the sum of (1) the outstanding principal amount of the Advances funded by it, and (2) its Ratable Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash
Collateral pursuant to Section 2.21.
(B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive Letter of Credit commissions for any period during which that Lender is
a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to its Ratable Share of the stated amount of Letters of Credit for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.21.
(C) With respect to any Facility Fee or Letter of Credit commission not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant
to clause (A) or (B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non‑Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee or commission otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in L/C Obligations
that has been reallocated to such Non‑Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank the amount of any such commission otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the extent allocable to such Issuing Bank’s
Fronting Exposure to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee or commission.
(iv) Reallocation of Participations to Reduce Fronting Exposure. All or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s
participation in L/C Obligations and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non‑Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Ratable Shares (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment) but
only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non‑Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non‑Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. Subject to Section 8.19, no reallocation hereunder
shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non‑Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non‑Defaulting
Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.
(v) Cash Collateral. If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected,
the Borrower shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ or the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.21.
(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and each Issuing Bank agree
in writing that a Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include
arrangements with respect to any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be
necessary to cause the Advances and funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and participations in Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the Revolving Credit Commitments (without giving effect to
Section 2.19(a)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a
Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non‑Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any
claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.
(c) New Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, neither the Swingline
Lender nor any Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase any Swingline Loans or Letter of Credit, as applicable, unless it is satisfied that it will have no Fronting Exposure after giving effect thereto.
SECTION 2.20. Evidence of Debt.
(a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the
Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Advance owing to such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time hereunder in respect of Advances. The Borrower agrees
that upon notice by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy of such notice to the Administrative Agent) to the effect that a Note is required or appropriate in order for such Lender to evidence (whether for purposes of pledge, enforcement or
otherwise) the Advances owing to, or to be made by, such Lender, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a Note payable to the order of such Lender in a principal amount up to the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender.
(b) b) The Register maintained by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 8.07(c) shall include a control account, and a
subsidiary account for each Lender, in which accounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the date and amount of each Borrowing made hereunder and, if appropriate, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the terms of each Assumption
Agreement and each Assignment and Assumption delivered to and accepted by it, (iii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iv) the amount of any sum
received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower hereunder and each Lender’s share thereof.
(c) Entries made in good faith by the Administrative Agent in the Register pursuant to clause (b) above, and by each Lender in
its account or accounts pursuant to clause (a) above, shall be prima facie evidence of the amount of principal and interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to, in the case of
the Register, each Lender and, in the case of such account or accounts, such Lender, under this Agreement, absent manifest error (and in the case of any inconsistency between the Register and the accounts maintained by any Lender or the
Administrative Agent, the Register shall govern); provided, however, that the failure of the Administrative Agent or such Lender to make an entry, or any finding that an entry is incorrect, in the Register or such account or
accounts shall not limit or otherwise affect the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement.
SECTION 2.21. Cash Collateral. At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within one Business Day following the written request of
the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender (in each case, with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks’ and/or the Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure, as applicable,
with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to any reallocation pursuant to Section 2.19(a) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than the Minimum Collateral Amount.
(a) Grant of Security Interest. The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting
Lender, hereby grants to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Banks (in its capacity as such) or the Swingline Lender (in its capacity as such), and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash
Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders’ obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations or Swingline Loans, to be applied pursuant to clause (b) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash
Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and/or the Issuing Banks, as applicable, as herein provided or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the
Minimum Collateral Amount, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and/or the Issuing Banks, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent and/or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, additional Cash
Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender).
(b) Application. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under
this Section 2.21 or Section 2.19 in respect of (i) Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of L/C Obligations and (ii) Swingline Loans shall be applied to the
satisfaction of the Defaulting Lender’s obligation to fund participations in respect of Swingline Loans (in each case, including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash
Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein.
(c) Termination of Requirement. Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing
Bank’s and/or Swingline Lender’s Fronting Exposure shall no longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.21 following (i) the elimination of the applicable Fronting Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting
Lender status of the applicable Lender) or (ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.19 the
Person providing Cash Collateral and each Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as applicable, may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated Fronting Exposure or other obligations.

refinancing, extension, renewal or refunding) and is not secured by any additional assets;
(x) Liens on property of a member of Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower in favor of the United States or any State

fail to pay any interest on any Advance or any fee or other amount payable hereunder or under the other Loan Documents when due and such failure remains unremedied for three Business Days; or

such failure shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in the agreement or instrument relating to such Debt; or any other event shall occur or condition shall exist under any agreement or instrument relating to any such
Debt and shall continue after the applicable grace period, if any, specified in such agreement or instrument, if the effect of such event or condition is to accelerate the maturity of such Debt or, in the case of Debt of the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries which is outstanding in a principal amount of at least $250,000,000 in the aggregate, to permit the holders (or the agent or other representative of such holders) to accelerate the maturity of such Debt; or any such Debt shall be
declared to be due and payable, or required to be prepaid (other than by a regularly scheduled required prepayment), redeemed, purchased or defeased, or an offer to prepay, redeem, purchase or defease such Debt shall be required to be made, in each
case prior to the stated maturity thereof; or
(e) The Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall generally not pay its debts as such debts become due, or shall admit in
writing its inability to pay its debts generally, or shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors; or any proceeding shall be instituted by or against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries seeking to adjudicate it a bankrupt or

Subsidiaries, such proceeding shall remain undismissed or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries shall take any corporate action to authorize any of the actions set forth above in this subsection (e); or
(f) Any judgment or order for the payment of money in excess of $250,000,000 shall be rendered against the Borrower or any of its
Subsidiaries and either (i) enforcement proceedings shall have been commenced by any creditor upon such judgment or order and such proceedings shall not have been stayed or (ii) there shall be any period of 30 consecutive days during which such
judgment or order shall remain unpaid and a stay of enforcement of such judgment or order, by reason of a pending appeal or otherwise, shall not be in effect; or
(g) A Change in Control shall occur;
(h) The Borrower shall incur a liability to a Plan, a Multiemployer Plan or PBGC (or any combination of the foregoing) that
would (either individually or in the aggregate) materially adversely affect the business, condition (financial or otherwise) or results of operations of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries (taken as a whole); or
(i) (i) At any time after its execution and delivery, any material provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document
ceases to be in full force and effect against the Borrower (other than as expressly permitted hereunder or by reason of the satisfaction in full of the obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof) or shall be declared null and void or
(ii) the Borrower shall contest the validity or enforceability of any Loan Document in writing or deny in writing that it has any further liability under any Loan Document to which it is a party;
Then, and in any such event, the Administrative Agent (i) shall at the request, or may with the consent, of the Majority Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, declare the obligation of each Lender to make Advances
(other than Advances to be made by an Issuing Bank or a Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(d)) and of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit to be terminated, whereupon the same shall forthwith terminate, and (ii) shall at the request, or may
with the consent, of the Majority Lenders, by notice to the Borrower, declare the Advances, all interest thereon and all other amounts payable under this Agreement to be forthwith due and payable, whereupon the Advances, all such interest and all
such amounts shall become and be forthwith due and payable, without presentment, demand, protest or further notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower; provided, however, that in the event of an
actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under the Federal Bankruptcy Code, (A) the obligation of each Lender to make Advances (other than Advances to be made by an Issuing Bank
or a Lender pursuant to Section 2.04(d)) and of the Issuing Banks to issue Letters of Credit shall automatically be terminated and (B) the Advances, all such interest and all such amounts shall automatically become and be due and payable, without
presentment, demand, protest or any notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by the Borrower.
SECTION 6.02. Actions in Respect of the Letters of Credit upon Event of Default. If any Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing,
the Administrative Agent may with the consent, or shall at the request, of the Majority Lenders, irrespective of whether it is taking any of the actions described in Section 6.01 or otherwise, make demand upon the Borrower to, and forthwith upon
such demand the Borrower will, (a) pay to the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders in same day funds at the Administrative Agent’s office designated in such demand, for deposit in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, an amount equal to the
aggregate Available Amount of all Letters of Credit then outstanding (but only to the extent such Available Amount has not already been Cash Collateralized) or (b) make such other arrangements in respect of the outstanding Letters of Credit as
shall be acceptable to the Majority Lenders and not more disadvantageous to the Borrower than clause (a); provided, however, that in the event of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrower under
the Federal Bankruptcy Code, an amount equal to the aggregate amount available to be drawn under all outstanding Letters of Credit shall be immediately due and payable to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders without notice to or
demand upon the Borrower, which are expressly waived by the Borrower, to be held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account. If at any time an Event of Default is continuing the Administrative Agent determines that any funds held in the L/C Cash Deposit
Account are subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Lenders or that the total amount of such funds is less than the aggregate amount available to be drawn under all Letters of Credit, the Borrower
will, forthwith upon demand by the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent, as additional funds to be deposited and held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, an amount equal to the excess of (a) such aggregate amount available to be drawn
over (b) the total amount of funds, if any, then held in the L/C Cash Deposit Account that the Administrative Agent determines to be free and clear of any such right and claim. Upon the drawing of any Letter of Credit, to the extent funds are on
deposit in the L/C Cash Deposit Account, such funds shall be applied to reimburse the Issuing Banks to the extent permitted by applicable law. After all such Letters of Credit shall have expired or been fully drawn upon and all other obligations
of the Borrower hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall have been paid in full, the balance, if any, in such L/C Cash Deposit Account shall be returned to the Borrower.
ARTICLE VII
THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
SECTION 7.01. Authorization and Authority. Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent to act on its behalf as
the administrative agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or
thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Article VII are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third‑party
beneficiary of any of such provisions. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative 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 as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between
contracting parties.
SECTION 7.02. Rights as a Lender. The Person serving as the Administrative 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 the Administrative Agent, and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the
Person serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such Person and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for, and
generally engage in any kind of business with, the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such Person were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.
SECTION 7.03. Exculpatory Provisions. (a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth
herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder and thereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:
(i) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or Event of Default has
occurred and is continuing;
(ii) shall not 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 the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Majority 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 the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or
that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of
property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and
(iii) shall not, 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 the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.
(b) The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request
of the Majority Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Sections 8.01 and 6.01), or (ii)
in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default or Event of
Default unless and until notice describing such Default or Event of Default is given to the Administrative Agent in writing by the Borrower or a Lender.
(c) The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report 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 or Event of Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to
the Administrative Agent.
SECTION 7.04. Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for
relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been
signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to 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 an Advance or the issuance, extension, renewal or increase of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or
an Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank prior to the making of such Advance
or the issuance of such Letter of Credit. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not
taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.
SECTION 7.05. Indemnification. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent not reimbursed by the
Borrower), ratably according to the respective principal amounts of the Advances then owed to them (or if no Advances are at the time outstanding, ratably according to the respective amounts of their Revolving Credit Commitments), from and against
any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent in any
way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any action taken or omitted by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, provided that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the Administrative Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. Without limiting
the foregoing, each Lender agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out‑of‑pocket expenses (including reasonable counsel fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the
preparation, execution, delivery, administration, modification, amendment or enforcement (whether through negotiations, legal proceedings or otherwise) of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, this Agreement, to the
extent that the Administrative Agent is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower.
SECTION 7.06. Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder
or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through
their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Article shall apply to any such sub agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in
connection with the syndication of the Commitments as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub‑agents except to the extent that a court of competent
jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub agents.
SECTION 7.07. Resignation of Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the
Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Majority Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Majority
Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then
the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with
such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.
(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the
Majority Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, in consultation with the Borrower, appoint a successor. If no such successor
shall have been so appointed by the Majority Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Majority Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless
become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.
