the impact of the regulatory environment and complexities with compliance related to such environment, including maintaining
compliance with privacy and data protection laws and regulations;

•
|
the ability to respond to general economic conditions;
|
•
|
factors relating to our and our subsidiaries’ business, operations and financial performance, including:
|
○
|
competition in the dating and social networking products and services industry;
|
○
|
the ability to maintain and attract users;
|
○
|
fluctuation in quarterly and yearly results;
|
○
|
the ability to adapt to changes in technology and user preferences in a timely and
cost-effective manner;
|
○
|
the ability to protect systems and infrastructures from cyber-attacks and prevent unauthorized
data access;
|
○
|
the dependence on the integrity of third-party systems and infrastructure; and
|
○
|
The ability to protect our intellectual property rights from unauthorized use by third parties;
|
•
|
the ability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination, which may be affected by, among other things,
competition, and our ability to manage growth and expand business operations effectively following the Closing;
|
•
|
whether the concentration of our stock ownership and voting power limits our stockholders’ ability to influence corporate
matters;
|
•
|
the effects of the ongoing coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the 2022 mpox outbreak, or other infectious diseases, health
epidemics, pandemics and natural disasters on our business;
|
•
|
the ability to maintain the listing of Common Stock and Public Warrants on the NYSE; and
|
•
|
the increasingly competitive environment in which we operate.
|
•
|
Our business depends on the strength and market perception of the Grindr brand, and if events occur that damage our
reputation and brand, our ability to expand its base of users may be impaired, and our business could be materially and adversely affected.
|
•
|
Changes to our existing products and services, or the development and introduction of new products and services, could fail
to attract or retain users or generate revenue and profits.
|
•
|
If we fail to retain existing users or add new users, or if our users decrease their level of engagement with its products
and services or do not convert to paying users, our revenue, financial results and business may be significantly harmed.
|
•
|
Inappropriate actions by certain of our users could be attributed to us and damage our brand or reputation, or subject us
to regulatory inquiries, legal action, or other liabilities, which, in turn, could materially adversely affect its business.
|
•
|
Unfavorable media coverage could materially and adversely affect our business, brand, or reputation.
|
•
|
The online social networking industry in which we operate is highly competitive, and if we cannot compete effectively our
business will suffer.
|
•
|
Our quarterly operating results and other operating metrics may fluctuate from quarter to quarter, which makes these
metrics difficult to predict.
|
•
|
The distribution, marketing of, and access to our products and services depend, in large part, on third-party platforms and
mobile application stores, among other third-party providers. If these third parties limit, prohibit, fail to operate, or otherwise interfere with the distribution or use of our products or services in any material way, it could
materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
|
•
|
Privacy concerns relating to our products and services and the use of user information could negatively impact its user
base or user engagement, which could have a material and adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations.
|
•
|
We rely primarily on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store as the channels for processing of payments. In addition,
access to our products and services depend on mobile App stores and other third parties such as data center service providers, as well as third-party payment aggregators, computer systems, internet transit providers and other
communications systems and service providers. Any deterioration in our relationship with Apple, Google or other such third parties may negatively impact our business.
|
•
|
Adverse social and political environments for the LGBTQ community in certain parts of the world, including actions by
governments or other groups, could limit our geographic reach, business expansion, and user growth, any of which could materially and adversely affect our business, financial condition, and results of operation.
|
•
|
We have identified material weaknesses in its internal control over financial reporting which, if not corrected, could
affect the reliability of our consolidated financial statements, and have other adverse consequences.
|
•
|
Security breaches, unauthorized access to or disclosure of our data or user data, other hacking and phishing attacks on our
systems, or other data security incidents could compromise sensitive information related to our business and/or user personal data processed by us or on our behalf and expose us to liability, which could harm its reputation, generate
negative publicity, and materially and adversely affect our business.
|
•
|
Our success depends, in part, on the integrity of its information technology systems and infrastructures and on our ability
to enhance, expand, and adapt these systems and infrastructures in a timely and cost-effective manner.
|
•
|
Our success depends, in part, on our ability to access, collect, and use personal data about our users and to comply with
applicable privacy and data protection laws and industry best practices.
|
•
|
Our business is subject to complex and evolving U.S. and international laws and regulations. Many of these laws and
regulations are subject to change or uncertain interpretation, and could result in claims, changes to our business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, declines in user growth or engagement, negative publicity;
or other harm to our business.
|
•
|
The varying and rapidly evolving regulatory framework on privacy and data protection across jurisdictions could result in
claims, changes to our business practices, monetary penalties, increased cost of operations, or declines in user growth or engagement, or otherwise harm our business.
|
•
|
We are subject to litigation, regulatory and other government investigations, enforcement actions, and settlements, and
adverse outcomes in such proceedings could have a materially adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operation.
|
•
|
Activities of our users or content made available by such users could subject us to liability.
|
•
|
Our indebtedness could materially adversely affect our financial condition, our ability to raise additional capital to fund
our operations, operate our business, react to changes in the economy or its industry, meet our obligations under our outstanding indebtedness, including significant operating and financial restrictions imposed on Grindr by our debt
agreements, and we could divert our cash flow from operations for debt payments.
|
•
|
The Business Combination remains subject to review by CFIUS and we are not certain how the outcome of the review will
impact the Business Combination or our business.

|
Paying Users. A Paying User is a user that has purchased or renewed a Grindr subscription and/or purchased a premium add-on
on the Grindr App. We calculate Paying Users as a monthly average, by counting the number of Paying Users in each month and then dividing by the number of months in the relevant measurement period. Paying Users is a primary metric that
we use to judge the health of our business and our ability to convert users to purchasers of our premium features. We are focused on building new products and services and improving on existing products and services, as well as
launching new pricing tiers and subscription plans, to drive payer conversion.
|
•
|
ARPPU. We calculate ARPPU based on Direct Revenue in any measurement period, divided by Paying Users in such a period divided
by the number of months in the period.
|
•
|
Adjusted ARPPU. We calculate adjusted ARPPU based on Adjusted Direct Revenue (excluding purchase accounting adjustments) in
any measurement period, divided by Paying Users in such a period divided by the number of months in the period.
|
•
|
MAUs. A MAU, or Monthly Active User, is a unique device that demonstrated activity on the Grindr App over the course of the
specified period. Activity on the app is defined as opening the app, chatting with another user, or viewing the cascade of other users. We also exclude devices where all linked profiles have been banned for spam. We calculate MAUs as a
monthly average, by counting the number of MAUs in each month and then dividing by the number of months in the relevant period. We use MAUs to measure the number of active users on our platform on a monthly basis and to understand the
pool of users we can potentially convert to Paying Users. We revised our MAU calculation method in November 2020. For periods prior to this, our ability to accurately validate the newly defined metric is restricted by privacy related
data retention policies; therefore, MAU is not presented for any periods prior to 2021.
|
•
|
ARPU. We calculate ARPU based on Total Revenue in any measurement period, divided by our MAUs in such a period divided by the
number of months in the period. As we expand our monetization product offerings, develop new verticals, and grow our community of users, we believe we can continue to increase our ARPU.
|
•
|
Adjusted EBITDA. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding income tax provision, interest expense,
depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, non-core expenses/losses (gains). Non-core expenses/losses (gains) include purchase accounting adjustments related to deferred revenue, transaction-related costs, asset
impairments, management fees, and interest income from the related party loan to Catapult GP II. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of revenue.
|
•
|
Adjusted Direct Revenue. We define Adjusted Direct Revenue as Direct Revenue adjusted for the release of the fair value
adjustment of deferred revenue into revenue of the acquired deferred revenue due to the June 10, 2020, acquisition (See Note 3 to Legacy Grindr’s audited consolidated financial statements beginning on page F-86 of
this prospectus for additional information).

The Largest Global LGBTQ Focused Mobile Social Platform. We were
established in 2009 as the one of the first global social platforms exclusively addressing the needs of the LGBTQ community. We built our mobile social platform to address the broadly underserved LGBTQ community’s need for a
comprehensive digital platform to connect, share, and consume content. Driven by our first-mover advantage, we have rapidly built the world’s largest LGBTQ social platform in terms of users in 2021, according to the Frost & Sullivan
Study commissioned by Legacy Grindr. In 2021, we had approximately 10.8 million MAUs and users in over 190 countries and territories, with our Grindr App available in over 21 language versions. We have users in several markets as of
September 30, 2022, including developed markets such as the United States, the U.K., France, Spain, and Canada, and emerging markets such as Brazil, Mexico, India, Chile, and the Philippines.

Large, Highly Engaged, and Growing User Base. Our large and
highly engaged global user base drives the continuous growth of our daily operations. The Grindr App had approximately 10.8 million MAUs in 2021. During the same period, our users on average sent over 260 million chats and each
individual user spent an average of 61 minutes per day on our Grindr app.

Organic and Viral Growth Driven by Network Effects. As a pioneer
in the LGBTQ social networking space, we have benefited from a substantial first mover advantage and reached a scale that continues to propel the viral growth of our business, brand awareness, and user acquisition. Leveraging this
strong brand awareness and significant user network, our historical growth has been driven primarily by network effects, including strong word of mouth referrals and other organic means. The large scale of our user base offers ample
opportunities for potential connections and leads to a better experience for our users. The superior user experience of our products and services attracts more users to our platform and increases our rankings in search engines and app
stores. As a result, we believe we achieve a higher frequency of word-of-mouth referrals from satisfied users, which further drives our scale while maintaining low user acquisition costs. For the three months and the nine months ended
September 30, 2022 and 2021, sales and marketing, excluding personnel-related expenses, comprised 2.3%, 1.6%, 1.1%, 0.9%, respectively, of our revenue over the same time period. In the years ended December 31, 2021, 2020 and 2019, sales
and marketing, excluding personnel-related expenses, comprised 0.9%, 3.2% and 2.8% respectively, of our revenue over the same time period.

|
Superior User Experience. We believe the superior user experience
we offer distinguishes us from our competitors. We have devoted substantial resources to continuously improving our products and services and enhancing the user experience. We emphasize technology and product innovations based on robust
data compiled from product usage, competitive studies, customer feedback, and our industry experience. Our geolocation technology, grid display interface, complex filter functions, and other innovative features and functionalities
enable users to discover and connect to each other effortlessly and seamlessly. Our profiles spent an average of 61 minutes per day each on the Grindr App in December 2021, which ranks us number one among apps targeting the LGBTQ
community, according to the Frost & Sullivan Study commissioned by Legacy Grindr.

Strong Margins and Profitable Business Model. Our business model
generates strong margins and high cash flow given our revenue model and low paid user acquisition spend. Our margins have increased over time as a result of scaling revenue and achievement of cost efficiencies, despite continual
investment in our brand, product, technology, and anti-abuse platform. In the year ended December 31, 2021, our Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 52.8%, and in the year ended December 31, 2020, our Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 48.5%. For the
three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 47.7% and 53.6%, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, our Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 46.8% and 53.3%, respectively.

Expand Monetization Capabilities. We believe we can improve our
monetization capabilities by continuing to optimize and develop our subscription offerings, introducing more stand-alone premium functions, and further optimizing our indirect revenue offerings, as described in more detail below:
|
•
|
Continue to optimize and develop our subscription offerings. We plan to continue to optimize our subscription conversion
through features like introductory offers, discounted trials, and win-back offers. We plan to continue to develop our subscription offerings by adding more premium features to
|
•
|
Introduce more stand-alone paid features. We intend to introduce more stand-alone paid features in addition to existing
subscription services. For example, we plan to allow some premium features to be purchased on a stand-alone basis, including better profile positions, appearance management, and other functions.
|
•
|
Further optimize our indirect business. We intend to further optimize our indirect business by leveraging our advertising
partnerships, brand sales team, and self-serve advertising system. We will continue to experiment and evaluate opportunities to increase indirect revenue through brand partnerships, unique advertising units, and merchandise.
|
•
|
Grow Our User Base. We plan to deepen our penetration in our
current markets, including in our key established markets such as the United States and Europe. We will continue to introduce additional features that boost user engagement, increase retention, and stimulate existing users to make
word-of-mouth referrals. We also plan to enhance our marketing initiatives in these core regions. We also plan to grow our user base by targeting geographic regions outside of our current core markets that have a large number of
untapped potential users and fast-growing economies. In order to attract users in these new markets, we may offer innovative and customized products and services and features adapted to specific market conditions and demands. To
supplement our organic user growth, we plan to selectively invest in paid online channels, digital video channels and, where appropriate, offline channels, to further improve our penetration and market share in certain markets.
|
•
|
Continue to Innovate and Develop New Features. We plan to
continue to improve our products and services and introduce new features and functions for better user experiences and higher user engagement. These features and functions may be broadly implemented or strategically targeted at select
regions. For example, we recently released tags globally in the first quarter of 2022, a feature designed to allow our users to filter and find people with specific interests highlighted on user profiles. We evaluate new functions and
features in small target audiences and then roll out features with high test ratings to the larger global user base. For example, we recently released private albums first in Australia and New Zealand. After collecting initial feedback
and improving the product, we released it globally in 2022. We will also continue to enhance user experiences and engagement by continuously improving our existing features and functions, including through optimization of stability,
loading speed, and user interface design.
|
•
|
Diversify Our Products and Services and Platform. We will
continue to diversify our offerings both vertically and horizontally. Our global reach and scale have given us insights into the unique challenges our user base experiences. We believe these insights will enable us to diversify our
product into other areas that touch or concern our users. We are in the early stages of building a web-based product that will allow our privacy-focused users a way to use our product without downloading an app through an app ecosystem.
Additionally, we are collaborating with several partners in related industries to explore complementary functions and products and services to serve the core social interaction needs of our users.
|
•
|
Invest in Machine Learning and Data Science. We will continue to
invest in data to improve our product, protect our users, fight abuse and spam on our platform, and attract new users. We believe our efforts in machine learning and data science will help our users have more successful connections and
improve the overall experience on our platform.
|
•
|
Pursue Strategic Investments and Acquisitions. In addition to
organic growth, we also plan to make strategic investments and acquisitions in targeted markets. We are continually seeking opportunities for potential strategic investments in, or acquisitions of, related or complementary businesses to
help build a stronger social ecosystem for the LGBTQ community.
|
•
|
Location-based Technologies. We have built a large-scale location
search system to connect our online users’ locations in real-time so they can seamlessly engage with their hyper-local community. This scale and accuracy of our system differentiates us from competitors. Our technology manages millions
of users’ real-time locations every second of every day. We have developed a carefully optimized system capable of handling thousands of location update requests as well as thousands of location search requests per second at the same
time. The system powers the main cascade user interface in our Grindr App where a user sees others who are also using the Grindr App at that moment based on distance and filter criteria.
|
•
|
Data Management, Protection, and Privacy. We process over ten
terabytes of user data generated on our platform on a daily basis; from that we persist over seven terabytes of data per day. In order to do this, we have built our own data warehouse infrastructure on top of world class third-party
platforms. We have also built and deployed tools that allow for easy data summarization, ad hoc querying, and analysis of large datasets. These technologies help us provide each user with a personalized experience.
|
•
|
Our Information Security and Data Protection Program closely aligns with the National Institute of Standards and
Technologies’ (“NIST”) Cybersecurity Framework. In order to protect our data estate we have devised many procedures and controls to ensure our data is confidential, available, and maintains
integrity. The level of controls utilized to maintain confidentiality, availability, and integrity of our data is based upon a data matrix that takes into account the sensitivity and criticality of the data. Our controls implore the
usage of industry standard one-way hashing, and both symmetric and asymmetric encryption for data at rest and in transit.
|
•
|
Access to data stores are made available by the usage of a virtual private network (“VPN”)
device and is further gated by role-based access controls of privileged accounts. If data access is required for business reasons, it is granted to a specific individual for a specific data asset. All permission requests are approved by
a data custodian and all access is monitored and reviewed on a regular basis.
|
•
|
Large-scale Infrastructure. We have invested considerable
resources and investments on our underlying architecture to serve more than a billion daily application programmable interface (“API”) requests. We have also invested resources in adopting
container technologies, which allow us to scale our backend systems more easily. We run services in multiple availability zones (data centers) for redundancy. As a cloud-first company, everything we build is designed to scale and run in
a stateless environment. Externally, we process over four billion API requests per day. During February 2022, we processed over 12 billion messages per day. We believe these systems will easily continue to scale as we grow.
|
•
|
Client first technologies. Our APIs are designed to support
real-time product features agnostic of the clients (mobile or web). We believe in the approach of build once and leverage across several clients to deliver superior uniform user experience. It’s common for users to switch between
devices and other mediums and this system ensures our users can pick up where they left off.
|
•
|
Automated Review. We implement preventative technologies to help
mitigate risks of user misbehavior. We automatically scan profiles upon creation and conduct ongoing scans for fraudulent behavior or violations of our Community Guidelines. Our algorithms and automations remove many malicious profiles
before they can interact with our community. We utilize third party tooling to enhance our automated review capabilities. In addition, we provide users with a robust appeals system which allows our users to have a manual human review of
any automated decision.
|
•
|
Manual Review. Our experienced human reviewers play an integral
role in our moderation process. As of September 30, 2022,we utilized a team of content review personnel dedicated to moderating content on the Grindr App. We believe empathy with and understanding of our community is key to making good
moderation decisions. In addition to general moderation training, our moderators regularly receive specific training on bias, gender, microaggressions, and discrimination, to help them make as fair and equitable decisions as possible.
In addition to removing and blocking profiles and illicit content, our moderators reinforce our Community Guidelines to our users through our in-app warning system, which reminds our users of our expectations before their behavior
escalates.
|
•
|
Community Feedback. Our engaged user base also helps us maintain
a safe, positive, and inclusive community. Through in-app tools, we encourage users to report inappropriate content and misbehavior.
|
•
|
Online Initiatives. We attract new users and generate brand
awareness through data and insight-driven content marketing and social media initiatives, influencer marketing campaigns, and video and brand partnerships. In addition, we leverage the Grindr App’s internal marketing tools and
capabilities to connect external brands with our user base, and to drive awareness for our own new features and initiatives. We also partner with G4E to provide in-kind donations of digital marketing inventory to LGBTQ community groups
around the world. We regularly reassess growth opportunities across all of our organic, owned and operated, and paid channels. To date, relatively little paid online user acquisition has been required for us to grow, given our brand
awareness and word-of-mouth referrals.
|
•
|
Offline Initiatives. We organize and participate in a variety of
offline events to increase brand awareness and underscore commitment to the LGBTQ community. These events can also provide opportunities for monetization through sponsorships. Examples include WorldPride sponsorships in New York and
Copenhagen, the Outfest premier of our first original scripted web series Bridesman, annual activations at

Represented Series P profit units (“Series P Units”) granted by SVEJV to Catapult
Goliath LLC (“Catapult Goliath”) on June 10, 2020, and indirectly owned by Messrs. Bonforte and Hsueh through their respective ownership interests in Catapult Goliath, in exchange for providing
service to the Company under a consulting agreement between SVEJV and Catapult Goliath through December 31, 2023. The vesting requirements for the Series P Units consist of requisite service under the consulting agreement through
December 31, 2023 and four performance-based vesting targets as follows: (1) 20% will vest if SVEJV determines that Catapult Goliath has addressed certain critical issues as described in the grant agreement by December 31, 2020 (which
SVEJV determined had been addressed by Catapult Goliath prior to such date), and (2) 20%, 30%, and 30% will vest if EBITDA for Grindr reached a certain level for the each of the years ending December 31, 2021, December 31, 2022 and
December 31, 2023, respectively. On May 9, 2022, SVEJV and Catapult Goliath entered into an agreement to amend the vesting requirement for the Series P Units. Under the amendment, the Series P Units performance-based vesting target was
amended to time-based vesting from the date of the amendment through December 31, 2022. In connection with the Business Combination, the Series P Units were converted into Legacy Grindr Series X Ordinary Units and Catapult Goliath was
liquidated and its holdings were distributed to its ultimate beneficiaries, including Messrs. Bonforte and Hsueh. Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, such Legacy Grindr Series X Ordinary Units were converted at the Closing into our Common
Stock using the applicable exchange ratio specified in the Merger Agreement.
|
(2)
|
The option award was granted with a per share exercise price equal to the fair market value of one share of Legacy Grindr’s
Series X Ordinary Units on the date of grant, as determined in good faith by Legacy Grindr’s board of managers, and vests as to 25% of the Legacy Grindr Series X Ordinary Units subject thereto on the first anniversary of the grant date,
and 6.25% of the Legacy Grindr Series X Ordinary Units subject thereto will vest each quarter thereafter, subject to Mr. Balance’s continued service to us through each vesting date. The exercise price and number of Legacy Grindr’s
Series X Ordinary Units subject to Mr. Balance’s option, reflect the actual exercise price and number of units, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. At the Closing the option award was converted into an option covering our Common
Stock with adjustments to the number of shares and exercise price based on the applicable exchange ratio specified in the Merger Agreement to reflect the Business Combination.

In June 2020, Grindr entered into a director services agreement with James Fu Bin Lu. Prior to terminating in connection with
the Business Combination, the agreement entitled Mr. Lu to an annual fee of $350,000, to be paid on a quarterly basis, for the services he provides as a director to Grindr.
|
•
|
a $20,000 cash retainer fee for general service on the Board plus an additional $5,000 cash retainer fee for service as chair
of a committee of the Board, in each case the aggregate amount of such fee paid in four substantially equal installments at the end of each full quarter of Board service, measured from the date of the Closing and prorated for any
partial quarter of service; and
|
•
|
an award of restricted stock units covering 5,000 shares of our Common Stock to the extent the non-employee director was not
chair of a committee of the Board immediately following the Closing or an award of restricted stock units covering 6,250 shares of our Common Stock to the extent the non-employee director was chair of a committee of the Board
immediately following the Closing, which in each case vests as to one-half of the award on March 15th, 2023, and as to the remaining one-half of the award on the earlier of (i) June 15th, 2023 and (ii) the first annual general meeting
of Company stockholders following the Closing, subject to the non-employee director remaining in continuous service through each vesting date.

In connection with the acquisition of Legacy Grindr in 2020, the San Vicente Entities as of September 30, 2022, had a cash
obligation to pay $155.0 million on June 20, 2023 to Kunlun. This obligation was recorded by the San Vicente Entities at the present value of these payments due in the future (“Deferred Payment”).

Consolidation occurred on September 30, 2022. To reflect the effects of the SV Consolidation, the historical income statement periods presented in the Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information reflect the interest expense and
related tax effects associated with the Deferred Payment as though the SV Consolidation occurred on January 1, 2021.

days of the Closing. The difference between the assumed carrying value of the Deferred Payment at the time of settlement on November 14, 2022 and the $155,000 obligation will be recognized in the amount of $12,250, which has been
recorded as a loss on extinguishment of debt in the period it was extinguished.

In connection with the Business Combination, the board of managers of Legacy Grindr approved a distribution of $2.55 per unit
of Series X Ordinary Units of Grindr amounting to $283,801 to Series X Ordinary Unit holders

Prior to the Closing and in connection with SV Consolidation, but after Parent satisfied in full its funding obligations
under the Forward Purchase Agreement to Tiga, SV Parent merged with and into Legacy Grindr. In consideration for Legacy Grindr’s assumption of SV Parent’s rights to receive the securities issuable by Tiga under the Forward Purchase
Agreement, Legacy Grindr issued 7,127,896 Legacy Grindr Series X Ordinary Units to SV Cayman and entered into that certain warrant agreement with SV Cayman, pursuant to which, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth
therein, SV Cayman was entitled to purchase 3,563,948 Series X Ordinary Units of Legacy Grindr at a purchase price of $16.13 per share. Such warrants and the Legacy Grindr Series X Ordinary Units were ultimately exchanged at the Closing

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Combined Financial Information
|
1.
|
Reflects the contribution of the San Vicente Entities from the SV Consolidation as a contribution of assets and liabilities
between entities under common control. This transfer of assets between entities under common control does not result in a change in reporting entity requiring retrospective restatement of the historical financial statements. The Company
considered the following factors in making this determination: the San Vicente Entities are considered non-substantive holding companies, the Legacy Grindr management structure will remain in place subsequent to the SV Consolidation,
and the discussion of the business in this Registration Statement centers around Legacy Grindr, not the San Vicente Entities. The contribution of these balances is at historical cost assuming the SV Consolidation occurred on
September 30, 2022. The table below reflects major balance sheet line items of both the San Vicente Entities and Legacy Grindr and excludes line items where there is no difference between the historical balances. The adjustments and
their explanations are as follows:

|
9.
|
Reflects the cash distributed to former owners of Legacy Grindr through a capital distribution declared prior to the closing

|
11.

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
|
•
|
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are directly or indirectly observable such as
quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
|
•
|
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop
its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.

in whole and not in part;

•
|
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
|
•
|
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
|
•
|
if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day
period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends,
reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like).
|
•
|
in whole and not in part;
|
•
|
at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided that holders will be able to
exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares;
|
•
|
if, and only if, the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share
dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like); and
|
•
|
if the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.
|
Level 1:
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market
in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
|
Level 2:
|
Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar
assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
|
Level 3:
|
Unobservable inputs based on assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability.

Level 1, defined as observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical instruments in active markets;
|
•
|
Level 2, defined as inputs other than quoted prices in active markets that are directly or indirectly observable such as
quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets or quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and
|
•
|
Level 3, defined as unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop
its own assumptions, such as valuations derived from valuation techniques in which one or more significant inputs or significant value drivers are unobservable.
|
•
|
in whole and not in part;
|
•
|
at a price of $0.01 per warrant;
|
•
|
upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each warrant holder; and
|
•
|
if, and only if, the last reported sale price of the Class A ordinary shares for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day
period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders (the “Reference Value”) equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share
sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like).
|
•
|
in whole and not in part;
|
•
|
at $0.10 per warrant upon a minimum of 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; provided that holders will be able to
exercise their warrants on a cashless basis prior to redemption and receive that number of shares determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of the Class A ordinary shares;
|
•
|
if, and only if, the Reference Value equals or exceeds $10.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share
dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like); and
|
•
|
if the Reference Value is less than $18.00 per share (as adjusted for share sub-divisions, share dividends, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like), the Private Placement Warrants must also be concurrently called for redemption on the same terms as the outstanding Public Warrants, as described above.
|
Level 1:
|
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market
in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.
|
Level 2:
|
Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar
assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.
|
Level 3:
|
Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or
liability.

The expected term for award is determined using the simplified method, which estimates the expected term using the contractual
life of the option and the vesting period.
|
(2)
|
Expected volatility is based on historical volatilities of a publicly traded per group over a period equivalent to the
expected term of the awards.
|

|
The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield of treasury bonds with a maturity that approximates the
expected term of the awards.

|
Undertakings.
|
(a)
|
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes as follows:
|
(1)
|
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration
statement:
|
(i)
|
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
|
(ii)
|
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most
recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in
volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of
prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of
Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement;
|
(iii)
|
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration
statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement.
|
(2)
|
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall
be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
|
(3)
|
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold
at the termination of the offering.
|
(4)
|
That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed
pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and
included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a
document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use,
supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
|
(5)
|
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial
distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the
securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell
such securities to such purchaser:
|
(i)
|
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant
to Rule 424;
|
(ii)
|
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or
referred to by the undersigned registrant;
|
(iii)
|
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the
undersigned registrant or our securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
|
(iv)
|
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
|
(b)
|
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers
and controlling persons of the undersigned pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the undersigned has been advised that in the opinion of the SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the undersigned of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the
undersigned in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the undersigned will, unless in the opinion of our
counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the
final adjudication of such issue.

principal amount of all then outstanding Term Loans (as the same may be adjusted from time to time pursuant to Section 5.04, each a “Term Loan Repayment Amount”), (iii)
to the extent 2022-I Supplemental DDTLs are funded, beginning on the third Term Loan Repayment Date following the applicable 2022-I Supplemental DDTL Funding Date and on each Term Loan Repayment Date thereafter, an amount equal to 0.50% of the
aggregate principal amount of 2022-I Supplemental DDTLs funded on the applicable 2022-I Supplemental DDTL Funding Date and (iv) (x) to the extent 2022-II Supplemental DDTLs are funded and (y) to the extent no Default exists immediately prior to or
would occur immediately after giving effect to such payment required pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) as a result of the making of such payment, on the third Term Loan Repayment Date following the applicable 2022-II Supplemental DDTL Funding Date
and on the fifth Term Loan Repayment Date following the 2022-II Supplemental DDTL Funding Date, an amount equal to 25.00% of the aggregate principal amount of 2022-II Supplemental DDTLs funded on the applicable 2022-II Supplemental DDTL Funding
Date. The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the applicable Lenders, on the applicable Maturity Date, all then outstanding Term
Loans, as applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, no amounts repaid on the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05(b) may be reborrowed.
(c) [Reserved].
(d) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to the appropriate lending office of such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such lending office of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such lending office of such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.
(e) The Borrower agrees that
from time to time on and after the Closing Date, upon the request to any Agent by any Lender, at the Borrower’s own expense, the Borrower will execute and deliver to such Lender a Note, evidencing the Loans made by, and payable to such Lender or its
registered assigns in a maximum principal amount equal to such Lender’s share of the outstanding principal amount of the Term Loans. The Borrower hereby irrevocably authorizes each Lender to make (or cause to be made) appropriate notations on the grid
attached to such Lender’s Note (or on any continuation of such grid), which notations, if made, shall evidence, inter alia, the date of, the outstanding principal amount of, and the interest rate and LIBORInterest Period applicable to, the Loans evidenced thereby. Such notations shall, to the extent not inconsistent with notations made by the Administrative Agent in the Register, be
conclusive and binding on each Credit Party absent manifest error; provided, that the failure of any Lender to make any such notations shall not limit or otherwise affect any Obligations of any Credit Party. The Administrative Agent shall
maintain the Register pursuant to Section 13.06(b)(iv), and a subaccount for each Lender, in which Register and subaccounts (taken together) shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Type of each Loan made and the LIBORInterest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable
from the Borrower to each Lender and its registered assigns hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by any Agent from the Borrower and each Lender’s and/or its registered assigns’ share thereof. In the event of any conflict between the
accounts and records maintained by any Lender and the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent in respect of such matters, the accounts and records of the Administrative Agent shall control in the absence of manifest error.
(f) The entries made in the Register and accounts and subaccounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (d) and (e) of this Section 2.05 shall, to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided, that the failure of any Lender or any Agent to maintain such account, such Register or such subaccount, as applicable, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
Section 2.06 Conversions and Continuations. (a) The Borrower shall have
the option on any Business Day to convert all or a portion equal to at least the Minimum Borrowing Amount of the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans of one Type into a Borrowing or Borrowings of another Type and the Borrower shall have the
option on any Business Day to continue the outstanding principal amount of any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans as LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans, for an additional LIBORInterest Period; provided, that (i) no partial conversion of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans shall
reduce the outstanding principal amount of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans made pursuant to a single Borrowing to less than the Minimum
Borrowing Amount, (ii) Index Rate Loans may not be converted into LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans if an Event of Default is in existence
on the date of the proposed conversion and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders in respect of the Credit Facility have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such conversion, (iii) LIBOR
RateTerm SOFR Loans may not be continued as LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans if an Event of Default is in existence on the date of the proposed continuation and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders in respect of the Credit Facility have, determined in its or their sole
discretion not to permit such continuation and (iv) Borrowings resulting from conversions pursuant to this Section 2.06 shall be limited in number as provided in Section 2.02. Each such conversion or continuation shall be effected by
the Borrower by giving the Administrative Agent written notice prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) at least three (3) Business Days (or one (1) Business Day in the case of a conversion into Index Rate Loans) (and in either case on not more than ten (10)
Business Days) prior to such proposed conversion or continuation, in the form of Exhibit F (each, a “Notice of Conversion or Continuation”) specifying the Loans to be so converted or continued, the Type of Loans to be converted or
continued into and, if such Loans are to be converted into or continued as LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans, the LIBORInterest Period to be initially applicable thereto. The Administrative Agent shall give the Collateral Agent and each Lender notice as promptly
as practicable of any such proposed conversion or continuation affecting any of its Loans.
(b) If any Event of Default is in existence at the time of any proposed continuation of any LIBOR
RateTerm SOFR Loans and the Administrative Agent has, or the Required Lenders have, determined in its or their sole discretion not to permit such continuation,
such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans shall be automatically converted on the last day of the current LIBORInterest Period into Index Rate Loans effective as of the expiration date of such current LIBORInterest Period. If, upon the expiration of any LIBORInterest Period in respect of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans, the Borrower has failed to elect a new LIBORInterest Period to be applicable thereto as provided in Section 2.06(a), the Borrower shall be deemed to have elected to continue such Borrowing of LIBOR
RateTerm SOFR Loans as of the expiration date of such current LIBORInterest Period with the same LIBORInterest Period.
Section 2.07 Pro Rata Borrowings. Each Borrowing of Term Loans under this Agreement shall be granted by the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their then-applicable Term Loan Commitments; provided, that notwithstanding the foregoing, each proposed Borrowing of 2022-I Supplemental DDTLs and/or 2022-II Supplemental DDTLs shall be comprised of 2022-I Supplemental DDTLs and/or Supplemental DDTLs such that as of the 2022-I DDTL Funding Date or 2022-II DDTL Funding Date, after giving Pro Forma Effect to such proposed Borrowing, the ratio of (a) the outstanding 2022-II DDTLs as of such date to (b) the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Loans (including 2022-II DDTLs funded on such date) shall be equal to 0.08136:1.00 (such ratio, the “DDTL Funding Ratio”); provided, further, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement, to the extent the 2022-I DDTL Funding Date occurs prior to the 2022-II DDTL Funding Date, (x) the Borrower shall be obligated to submit a Notice of Borrowing of 2022-II Supplemental DDTLs, which Notice of Borrowing shall reflect a 2022-II DDTL Funding Date no later than ten (10) days after the 2022-I DDTL Funding Date, and (y) the DDTL Funding Ratio shall be assessed for all purposes under this Agreement as of the 2022-II DDTL Funding Date. It is understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in its obligation to make Loans hereunder and that each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to fulfill its commitments hereunder.
Section 2.08 Interest. (a) The unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan that is an Index Rate Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable Margin plus the Index Rate in effect from time to time.
(b) The unpaid principal amount
of each Term Loan that is a LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan shall bear interest from the date of the Borrowing thereof until maturity
thereof at a rate per annum that shall at all times be the Applicable Margin in effect from time to time plus the relevant LIBOR RateTerm
SOFR.
(c) Automatically from and after the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Borrower shall pay interest (i) on the outstanding principal amount of all Loans and all other unpaid amounts of the Obligations to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, at the rate described in Section 2.08(a) or Section 2.08(b), as applicable, plus two (2) percentage points (2%) per annum, and (ii) on any fees in connection with the facilities hereunder (after giving effect to any applicable grace period) to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, plus two (2) percentage points (2%) per annum in excess of the rate otherwise applicable to Index Rate Loans. All such interest shall be payable on demand and in immediately available funds.
(d) Interest on each Loan shall accrue from and including the date of any Borrowing to but excluding the date of any repayment or prepayment thereof and shall be payable in respect of each Loan quarterly in arrears on the last day of each March, June, September and December, beginning with the quarter during which the Closing Date occurs, on the date of prepayment thereof (on the amount prepaid), at maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) and, after such maturity, on demand.
(e) All computations of interest hereunder shall be made in accordance with Section 5.05.
(f) The Administrative Agent, upon
determining the interest rate for any Borrowing of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans, shall promptly notify the Borrower and the relevant
Lenders thereof. Each such determination shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and conclusive and binding on all parties hereto.
Section 2.09 LIBORInterest Periods. At the time the Borrower gives a Notice of Borrowing or a Notice of Conversion or Continuation in respect of the making of, or conversion into or continuation as, a Borrowing of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans (in the case of the initial LIBORInterest Period applicable thereto) or prior to 1:00 p.m. (New York time) on the third (3rd) Business Day (and in any
event, on not more than ten (10) Business Days’ notice) prior to the expiration of an LIBORInterest Period applicable to a
Borrowing of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans, the Borrower shall have, by giving the Administrative Agent written notice the right to
elect the LIBORInterest Period applicable to such Borrowing, which LIBORInterest Period shall, at the option of the Borrower, be a one, two, three or six month period (or,
if available to all relevant affected Lenders, a twelve month period or a shorter period):
(a) the initial LIBORInterest Period for any Borrowing of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans shall commence on the date of such Borrowing (including the date of any conversion from a Borrowing of Index Rate Loans) and each LIBORInterest Period occurring thereafter in respect of such Borrowing shall commence on the day on which the immediately preceding LIBORInterest Period expires;
(b) the
initial LIBOR Period for the Borrowing of LIBOR Rate Loans on the Closing Date shall be a period that ends on June 30, 2020[reserved];
(c) if any LIBORInterest Period relating to a Borrowing of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans begins on the last Business Day of a calendar month or begins on a day for which there is no numerically corresponding day in the calendar month at the end of such LIBORInterest Period, such LIBORInterest Period shall end on the
last Business Day of the calendar month at the end of such LIBORInterest Period;
(d) if any LIBORInterest Period would otherwise expire on a day that is not a Business Day, such LIBORInterest Period shall expire on the next succeeding Business Day; provided, that if any LIBORInterest Period in respect of a LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan would otherwise expire on a day
that is not a Business Day but is a day of the month after which no further Business Day occurs in such month, such LIBORInterest
Period shall expire on the immediately preceding Business Day; and
(e) the Borrower
shall be entitled to elect a LIBORInterest Period (of greater than one week and less than six months) in respect of any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan in order for such LIBORInterest Period to end on (i) a Term Loan Repayment Date, or (ii) an anniversary of the Closing Date (or if such anniversary is not a Business Day, the preceding Business Day); and
(f) the Borrower
shall not be entitled to elect any LIBORInterest Period in respect of any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan if such LIBORInterest Period would extend
beyond the applicable Maturity Date of such Loan.
Section 2.10 Increased Costs, Illegality, Unavailability or Inadequacy of LIBORTerm SOFR, etc. (a) In
the event that (x) in the case of clause (i) below, the Administrative Agent or (y) in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) below, any Recipient, in each case, shall have reasonably determined:
(i) on any date for determining the LIBOR RateTerm SOFR for any LIBORInterest Period that (A) deposits in the principal amounts of the Loans
comprising any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan are not generally available in the relevant market or
(B) by reason of any changes arising on or after the Closing Date affecting the London interbank market, adequate and fair means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable interest rate on the basis provided for in the definition of LIBOR Rate;
or; or
(ii) at any time that a Change in Law causes such Recipient to incur increased costs or reductions in the amounts received or receivable hereunder with respect to any loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto (other than any such increase or reduction attributable to Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of Excluded Taxes, Connection Income Taxes or Non-Excluded Taxes); or
(iii) at any time that the making or continuance of any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR
Loan has become (A) due to a Change in Law, unlawful under any Applicable Law (or would conflict with any such Applicable Law not having the force of law even though the failure to comply therewith
would not be unlawful), or (B) impracticable as a result of a contingency occurring after the Closing Date that materially and adversely affects the London interbank market, then, and in any such
event, such Lender (or the Administrative Agent, in the case of clause (i) above) shall promptly give notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such determination (which notice the Administrative Agent shall promptly transmit to each of
the other Lenders). Thereafter, subject to terms and conditions of Section 2.12, (A) in the case of clause (i) above, LIBOR RateTerm SOFR
Loans shall no longer be available until such time as the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice by the Administrative Agent no longer exist, and any Notice
of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion or Continuation given by the Borrower with respect to LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans that have
not yet been incurred shall be ineffective and such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans shall be converted to Index Rate Loans on the last
day of the interest period applicable thereto, (B) in the case of clause (ii) above, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, within five (5) days after receipt of written demand therefor, such additional amounts (in the form of an increased rate of,
or a different method of calculating, interest or otherwise as such Lender in its reasonable discretion shall determine) as shall be required to compensate such Lender for such increased costs or reductions in amounts receivable hereunder (it being
agreed that a written notice as to the additional amounts owed to such Lender, showing in reasonable detail the basis for the calculation thereof, submitted to the Borrower by such Lender shall, absent clearly demonstrable error, be final and
conclusive and binding upon all parties hereto) and (C) in the case of clause (iii) above, the Borrower shall take one of the actions specified in Section
2.10(b) as promptly as possible and, in any event, within the time period required by law.
(b) At any time
that any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is affected by the circumstances described in (i) Section 2.10(a)(ii), the Borrower may
either (A) if the affected LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, cancel said Borrowing by giving
the Administrative Agent written notice thereof on the same date that the Borrower was notified by a Lender pursuant to Section 2.10(a)(ii) or (B) if the affected LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is then outstanding, upon at least three (3) Business Days’ notice to the Administrative Agent, require the affected Lender to convert each such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan into an Index Rate Loan at the end of the applicable LIBORInterest Period for such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans; provided,
that if more than one (1) Lender is so affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.10(b) or (ii) Section 2.10(a)(iii), (A) if the affected LIBOR
RateTerm SOFR Loan is then being made pursuant to a Borrowing, such Borrowing shall automatically be deemed cancelled and rescinded and (B) if the affected LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is then outstanding, each such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan shall automatically be converted into an Index Rate Loan at the end of the applicable LIBORInterest Period for such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans; provided, that if more
than one (1) Lender is affected at any time, then all affected Lenders must be treated in the same manner pursuant to this Section 2.10(b).
(c) If, after the later of the Closing Date, and the date such entity becomes a Lender hereunder, the adoption of any Applicable Law regarding capital adequacy, or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by a Lender or its parent with any request or directive made or adopted after such date regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, association, central bank or comparable agency, has the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or its parent’s capital or assets as a consequence of such Lender’s commitments or obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or its parent could have achieved but for such adoption, effectiveness, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or its parent’s policies with respect to capital adequacy), then within five (5) days after demand by such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or its parent for such reduction, it being understood and agreed, however, that a Lender shall not be entitled to such compensation as a result of such Lender’s compliance with, or pursuant to any request or directive to comply with, any such Applicable Law as in effect on the Closing Date or the date such entity becomes a Lender hereunder, as the case may be. Each Lender (on its own behalf), upon determining in good faith that any additional amounts will be payable pursuant to this Section 2.10(c), will, as promptly as practicable upon ascertaining knowledge thereof, give written notice thereof to the Borrower, which notice shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis of the calculation of such additional amounts. The failure to give any such notice, with respect to a particular event, within the time frame specified in Section 2.13, shall not release or diminish any of the Borrower’s obligations to pay additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.10(c) for amounts accrued or incurred after the date of such notice with respect to such event.
Section
2.11 Compensation. If (a) any payment of principal of a LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is made by the Borrower to or for the account of a Lender other than on the last day of the LIBORInterest Period for such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan as a result of a payment or conversion pursuant to Sections
2.05, 2.06, 2.10, 4.01 or 4.02, as a result of acceleration of the maturity of the Loans pursuant to Article XI or for any other reason, (b) any Borrowing of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans is not made as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Borrowing (except with respect to a revocation as provided in Section 2.10), (c) any Index Rate Loan is not
converted into a LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation, (d) any LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is not continued as a LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan as a result of a withdrawn Notice of Conversion or Continuation or (e) any prepayment of principal of a LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan is not made as a result of a withdrawn notice of prepayment pursuant to Sections 5.01 or 5.02, the Borrower shall, after receipt of a written request by
such Lender (which request shall set forth in reasonable detail the basis for requesting such amount), pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender any amounts required to compensate such Lender for any additional losses, costs or
expenses that such Lender may reasonably incur as a result of such payment, failure to convert, failure to continue, failure to prepay, reduction or failure to reduce, including any loss, cost or expense (excluding loss of anticipated profits)
actually incurred by reason of the liquidation or reemployment of deposits or other funds acquired by such Lender to fund or maintain such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan. For purposes of calculating amounts payable by the Borrower to the Lenders under this Section 2.11, (i) in the case of any payment referred to in clause (a) above, such losses, costs and expenses shall
exclude the Applicable Margin and shall take into account the amount such Lender would be able to obtain by placing an amount equal to such payment on deposit with a leading bank for a period starting on the Business Day following receipt and ending
on the last day of the LIBORInterest Period, and (ii) each Lender shall be deemed to have funded each LIBOR
RateTerm SOFR Loan made by it at the LIBOR RateTerm
SOFR for such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loan by a matching deposit or other borrowing
in the London interbank market for a comparable amount and for a comparable period, whether or not such LIBOR RateTerm
SOFR Loan was in fact so funded, and if such LIBOR RateTerm SOFR is 1.50% due to the operation of the proviso in
the definition of LIBOR Rate that the LIBOR Rate shall in no case be less than 1.50%Term SOFR that Term SOFR shall be the Floor,
the rate at which repaid funds or deposits may be deployed shall be deemed to be 1.50% and there shall be deemed to be no further losses, costs or expenses by reason of redeployment or deposit of such funds.
(a) Section 2.12 Benchmark Replacement.(a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other CreditLoan Document, upon the occurrence ofif a Benchmark
Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower may amend this Agreement to replace the LIBOR Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect

(e) (d) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a LIBORTerm SOFR Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation
of LIBORTerm SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, (i) the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Index Rate Loans. During any

Once the Defaulting Lender has cured such default in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, 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, that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans to be held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Commitments, whereupon that 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 a Lender that is not a 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.

The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (i) all the Fees required to be paid herein, or pursuant to the Fee Letter and any other document(s) entered into in connection herewith, at the times and in the amounts specified therein and (ii) any fees arising out of services rendered by third parties in connection with the duties of the Collateral Agent hereunder.

Section 4.02 Mandatory Termination of Commitments. (a) The Term Loan Commitment with respect to the Initial Term Loans shall terminate immediately following the closing of the Transactions on the Closing Date, and (b) the Term Loan Commitment with respect to the 2022 Supplemental Term Loans shall terminated immediately following the closing of the Amendment No. 2 Transactions on the Amendment No. 2 Effective Date.

minus (B) to the extent not funded with the proceeds of Indebtedness (other than revolving credit loans) (and to the extent funded with the proceeds of equity, such proceeds shall not increase any other basket hereunder), the sum of all

Borrower elects to deduct from the payment required under this provision in respect of the prior fiscal year shall not reduce Consolidated Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year in which such payment is made);.
(ii) Upon the incurrence or issuance of any Indebtedness by any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries (other than Indebtedness permitted under Section 10.01 (other
than any Permitted Refinancing)), the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Debt Proceeds plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium, to be applied as set forth in Section 5.02(a)(viiiix). Nothing in this Section 5.02(a)(ii) shall be construed to permit or waive any Default or Event of Default arising from any incurrence or
issuance of Indebtedness not permitted under the terms of this Agreement.
(iii) Subject to the last paragraph of this Section 5.02(a), no later than five (5) Business Days after the receipt by any Credit Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries of
any cash proceeds from any Disposition (other than any Disposition permitted under Section 10.04(a), Section 10.04(c), Section 10.04(d), Section 10.04(e), Section 10.04(f), Section 10.04(g), Section

hundred percent (100%) of the Net Disposition Proceeds from such Disposition, only to the extent the aggregate amount of such Net Disposition Proceeds in any fiscal year exceeds $1,000,000 in the aggregate and then only in the amount of such excess,
plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium, to be applied as set forth in Section 5.02(a)(viiiix); provided, that any Credit Party or
their respective Subsidiaries may, at their option by notice in writing to the Agents on or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day after the occurrence of the Disposition
giving rise to such Net Disposition Proceeds, elect to reinvest such Net Disposition Proceeds in assets that are used or useful in the business of any Credit Party or their Subsidiaries (including Permitted Acquisitions and other permitted
Investments) to the extent that any Credit Party or such Subsidiary makes such reinvestment within twelve (12) months following the occurrence of the Disposition; provided, however, any Credit Party or such Subsidiary may consummate such
reinvestment within sixteen (16) months after the occurrence of the Disposition, so long as any Credit Party or such Subsidiary shall have entered into a definitive agreement for the purchase of assets or property within the first twelve (12) month
period. Any amounts of Net Disposition Proceeds unused after such period shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.02(a)(viiiix). Nothing in this
Section 5.02(a)(iii) shall be construed to permit or waive any Default or Event of Default arising from any Disposition not permitted under the terms of this Agreement.
(iv) No later than five (5) Business Days after the receipt by Holdings, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries of any Extraordinary Receipts, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Extraordinary Receipts, only to the extent the aggregate amount of such Extraordinary Receipts in any fiscal year exceeds $1,000,000 in the aggregate and then only in the amount of such excess, plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium.

(vi) Upon any reduction in the Deferred Purchase Price obligations of the Purchaser under the Acquisition Agreement as a result of claims with respect to representations, warranties, indemnities or any exercise of set off rights in respect thereof, in each case, other than in respect of payments to be made to a third party or in reimbursement of payments made to a third party, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to such reduction in the Deferred Purchase Price obligation, such prepayment to be made on the date on which the amount of the reduction would otherwise have been payable under the Acquisition Agreement plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium.

any cash proceeds from any Casualty Event, the Borrower shall prepay the Loans in an amount equal to one hundred percent (100%) of such Net Casualty Proceeds, only to the extent the aggregate amount of such Net Casualty Proceeds in any fiscal year
exceeds $1,000,000 in the aggregate and then only in the amount of such excess, plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium, to be applied as set forth in Section 5.02(a)(viiiix); provided, that any Credit Party or their respective Subsidiaries may, at their option by notice in writing to the Agents no later than thirty (30) days following receipt of such Net Casualty Proceeds),
use such Net Casualty Proceeds to repair or reinvest such Net Casualty Proceeds in assets that are used or useful in the business of such Credit Party or such Subsidiaries to the extent that such Credit Party or such Subsidiary makes such repair or
reinvestment within twelve (12) months following the occurrence of the Casualty Event (or, so long as applicable permits and approvals are being diligently pursued by the Borrower in respect of such repair or reinvestment, sixteen (16) months); provided,
however, the Credit Parties or such Subsidiary may consummate such repair or reinvestment within sixteen (16) months after the occurrence of the Casualty Event, so long as such Credit Party or such Subsidiary shall have entered into a
definitive agreement for the repair or the purchase of assets or property within the first twelve (12) month period. Any amounts of Net Casualty Proceeds unused after such period shall be applied as set forth in Section 5.02(a)(viiiix). Nothing in this Section 5.02(a)(vii) shall be construed to permit or waive any Default or Event of Default arising from, directly or
indirectly, any Casualty Event.
(viii) To the extent the deSPAC Transactions are not consummated on or prior to December 7, 2022, the Borrower shall prepay all outstanding 2022-I Supplemental DDTLs and 2022-II Supplemental DDTLs (including for the avoidance of doubt any fees and interest accrued with respect thereto and any Applicable Prepayment Premium), which prepayment shall notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein be due and payable in cash on such date.
(ix) (viii) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments made
pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i) shall be applied, to the installments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b) in direct order of maturity of such scheduled installments. All other amounts to be applied in connection with
prepayments made pursuant to Section 5.02(a) shall be made to the installments of the Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.05(b) in inverse order of maturity of such scheduled installments. Each prepayment of the Loans under Section
5.02 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.
(b) Applicable Prepayment Premium. Without limiting the generality of Sections 5.01 and 5.02, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Credit Document, the Credit Parties hereby acknowledge and agree that if the Obligations are accelerated for any reason prior to the fourth anniversary of the Closing Date, including because of an Event of Default (including by operation of law or otherwise), the commencement of any insolvency proceeding or other proceeding pursuant to any applicable debtor relief laws, sale, disposition or encumbrance (including that by operation of law or otherwise) or a satisfaction or release by foreclosure (whether by power of judicial proceeding), deed in lieu of foreclosure or by any other means, the Applicable Prepayment Premium, determined as of the date of acceleration will also be due and payable as though said Obligations were voluntarily prepaid as of such date and shall constitute part of the Obligations, in view of the impracticability and extreme difficulty of ascertaining actual damages and by mutual agreement of the parties as to a reasonable calculation of each Lender’s lost profits as a result thereof. The Applicable Prepayment Premium payable in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence shall be presumed to be the liquidated damages sustained by each Lender as the result of the early termination and the Credit Parties agree that it is reasonable under the circumstances. The Credit Parties expressly agree that: (i) the Applicable Prepayment Premium is reasonable and is the product of an arm’s length transaction between sophisticated business people, ably represented by counsel, (ii) the Applicable Prepayment Premium shall be payable notwithstanding the then prevailing market rates at the time payment is made, (iii) there has been a course of conduct between Lenders and the Credit Parties giving specific consideration in this transaction for such agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium, and (iv) the Applicable Prepayment Premium represents a good faith, reasonable estimate and calculation of the lost profits or damages of the Lenders and that it would be impractical and extremely difficult to ascertain the actual amount of damages to the Lenders or profits lost by the Lenders as a result of any prepayment, including as a result of any Prepayment Event. THE CREDIT PARTIES EXPRESSLY WAIVE THE PROVISIONS OF ANY PRESENT OR FUTURE STATUTE OR LAW THAT PROHIBITS OR MAY PROHIBIT THE COLLECTION OF THE APPLICABLE PREPAYMENT PREMIUM IN CONNECTION WITH ANY ACCELERATION OF THE OBLIGATIONS. The Credit Parties expressly acknowledge that their respective agreement to pay the Applicable Prepayment Premium as herein described is a material inducement to the Lenders to provide the Commitments hereunder and to make the Loans. Furthermore, the Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the Credit Parties and their respective affiliates shall be estopped hereafter from claiming differently than as agreed to with respect to the Applicable Prepayment Premium and the Credit Parties acknowledge and agree that the Applicable Prepayment Premium is not intended to act as a penalty or to punish the Credit Parties for any action.
(c) [reserved].
(d) Application
to Term Loans. With respect to each prepayment of Term Loans elected by the Borrower pursuant to Section 5.01(b), the Borrower may designate the Types of Loans that are to be prepaid and the specific Borrowing(s) pursuant to which made;
provided, that the Borrower pays any amounts, if any, required to be paid pursuant to Section 2.11 with respect to prepayments of LIBOR RateTerm SOFR Loans made on any date other than the last day of the applicable LIBORInterest Period.
In the absence of a designation by the Borrower as described in the preceding sentence, the Administrative Agent shall, subject to the above, make such designation in its reasonable discretion with a view, but no obligation, to minimize breakage
costs owing under Section 2.11. Each such prepayment shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the Loans so prepaid, through the date of such prepayment.
(e) [reserved].
(f) Application of Collateral Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 5.01 or this Section 5.02, all proceeds of Collateral received by any Collateral Agent pursuant to the exercise of remedies against the Collateral, and all payments received upon and after the acceleration of any of the Obligations shall be applied as set forth in this clause (f), as follows (subject to adjustments pursuant to any agreements entered into among the Lenders):
(i) first, to pay any costs and expenses of the Collateral Agent and fees then due to the Collateral Agent under the Credit Documents, and any indemnities then due to any Agent under the Credit Documents, until paid in full,
(ii) second, to pay any fees or premiums then due to the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents until paid in full,
(iii) third, ratably to pay any costs or expense reimbursements of Lenders and indemnities then due to any of the Lenders under the Credit Documents until paid in full,
(iv) fourth, ratably to pay interest due in respect of the outstanding Term Loans until paid in full,
(v) fifth, ratably to pay the outstanding principal balance of the Term Loans until the Term Loans are paid in full,
(vi) sixth, to pay any other Obligations, and
(vii) seventh, to the Borrower or such other Person entitled thereto under Applicable Law.
Section 5.03 Payment of Obligations; Method and Place of Payment. (a) The obligations of the Borrower hereunder and under each other Credit Document are not subject to counterclaim, set-off, rights of rescission, or any other defense. Subject to Section 5.04, and except as otherwise specifically provided herein, all payments under this Agreement shall be made by the Borrower, without set-off, rights of rescission, counterclaim or deduction of any kind, to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of the Secured Parties entitled thereto not later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time) on the date when due and shall be made in immediately available funds in Dollars to the Administrative Agent, and any amounts received after such time on such date shall be deemed received on such date for purposes of determining whether an Event of Default has occurred (provided, that such amounts shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon). The Administrative Agent will thereafter cause to be distributed on the same day (if payment was actually received by the Administrative Agent prior to 2:00 p.m. (New York time), on such day) like funds relating to the payment of principal or interest or Fees ratably to the Secured Parties entitled thereto.
(b) For purposes of computing interest or fees, any payments under this Agreement that are made later than 2:00 p.m. (New York time), shall be deemed to have been made on the next succeeding Business Day. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment to be made hereunder shall be stated to be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the due date thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, with respect to payments of principal, interest shall continue to accrue during such extension at the applicable rate in effect immediately prior to such extension.
(c) The Borrower hereby authorizes Administrative Agent to, at its option (or upon the direction of the Collateral Agent or the Required Lenders), from time to time, without prior notice to the Borrower, charge the Borrower’s loan account for any and all Obligations that remain unpaid after the due date therefor (after giving effect to any grace periods provided for in Section 11.01(a)) and, with respect to Obligations that are not fees, interest or principal payments, are not the subject of a bona fide dispute. All amounts so charged to the Borrower’s loan account thereafter shall, subject to Section 2.08(c), accrue interest at the rate then applicable to Index Rate Loans.
Section 5.04 Net Payments. (a) All payments made by or on behalf of any Credit Party under this Agreement or any other Credit Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for or on account of any Taxes, except as required by Applicable Law. If any Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable by or on behalf of any Credit Party under this Agreement or any other Credit Document (as determined in the good faith discretion of the applicable 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 a Non-Excluded Tax, then the Borrower shall increase the amounts payable to the applicable Recipient to the extent 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. Whenever any Taxes are paid by a Credit Party pursuant to this Section 5.04(a), as soon as practicable thereafter, the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by the relevant Governmental Authority, a copy of the return reporting such payment, or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The Borrower shall indemnify the Agents and the Lenders for any Non-Excluded Taxes (including Non-Excluded Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 5.04(a)) that are paid by any Agent or Lender or that are required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to any Agent or Lender and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Non-Excluded Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority, within ten (10) days after demand therefor. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by an Agent or 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. In addition, the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with Applicable Law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent, shall timely reimburse it for the payment of any Other Taxes. The agreements in this Section 5.04(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
(b) (i) Each Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments under this Agreement shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by Applicable Law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided, that such Lender is legally entitled to complete, execute and deliver such documentation. 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. Each Person that shall become a Participant pursuant to Section 13.06 or a Lender pursuant to Section 13.06 shall, upon the effectiveness of the related transfer, be required to provide all the forms and statements required pursuant to this Section 5.04(b); provided, that in the case of a Participant such Participant shall furnish all such required forms and statements to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, no Lender shall be required to deliver any form (other than such documentation required by Sections 5.04(b)(ii)(A)-(C) and (iii)) that in such Lender’s reasonable judgment 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 “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or about 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 copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;
(B) any Lender that is not a “United States Person” as defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code (a “Non-U.S. 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 reasonably be requested) on or about the date on which such Non-U.S. 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 Non-U.S. 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 Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or 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 Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or 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 copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(3) in the case of a Non-U.S. 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 L-1 to the effect that such Non-U.S. 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 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” within the meaning of Section 957 of the Code related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or
(1) to the extent a Non-U.S. Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-2 or Exhibit L-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Non-U.S. Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Non-U.S. Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Non-U.S. Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit L-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
(C) Any Non-U.S. Lender shall 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 Non-U.S. 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;
(iii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a payment made to a Recipient under any Credit Document would be subject to United States federal withholding tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient 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 Recipient 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 Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment under FATCA, if any). Solely for the purposes of this clause (iii), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(iv) Each Recipient agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 5.04(b) expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any material 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.
(c) If any Lender or any Agent determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of a Tax for which it has been indemnified by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.04 (including by the payment of additional amounts by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 5.04), then such Lender or such Agent, as the case may be, shall reimburse the Borrower for such amount (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 5.04 with respect to the Tax giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Agent or such Lender (including any Taxes imposed on the receipt of such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided, that the Borrower, upon the request of such Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Agent or such Lender in the event such Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (c), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (c) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.
(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Non-Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Non-Excluded 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 13.06 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 Credit 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 Credit 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) Each party’s obligations under this Section 5.04 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 Credit Document.
Section 5.05 Computations of Interest and Fees. (a) All interest and fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days (including the first day but excluding the last day) occurring during the period for which such interest or fee is payable over a year comprised of (a) 365 (or 366 as appropriate) days in the case of Index Rate Loans and (b) 360 days in all other cases. Unless otherwise expressly provided herein, payments due on a day that is not a Business Day shall (except as otherwise required by Section 2.09(c)) be made on the next succeeding Business Day and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest and fees in connection with that payment.
(b) Fees shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed.

None of the Agents shall be required to take any action that, in its reasonable opinion or the reasonable opinion of its counsel, may expose such Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any bankruptcy or insolvency law or other similar law. The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Credit Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Credit Party.

The Agents may deem and treat the payee of any note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Agents. As to any matters not clearly and expressly provided for by the Credit Documents, each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under this Agreement or any other Credit Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all or other requisite Lenders) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. Each Agent shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents in accordance with a request of the other Agent and/or the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans and all other Secured Parties.

In the event that an Agent receives such a notice, such Agent shall give notice thereof to the other Agent and the Lenders. Each Agent shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or any other instructing group of Lenders specified by this Agreement); provided, that unless and until each Agent shall have received such directions, the Agents may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as such Agent shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Secured Parties.
Section 12.06 Non Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders. Each Lender (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or Affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Credit Party or any Affiliate of a Credit Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender or any other Secured Party. Each Lender (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of, and investigation into, the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender (and, if applicable, each other Secured Party) also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender or any other Secured Party, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Credit Parties and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by any Agent hereunder, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender or any other Secured Party with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Credit Party or any Affiliate of a Credit Party that may come into the possession of such Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys-in-fact or Affiliates.
Section 12.07 Indemnification. The Lenders agree to indemnify each Agent in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Credit Parties and without limiting the obligation of the Credit Parties to do so), ratably according to their respective Total Credit Exposure in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 12.07 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Total Credit Exposure immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Credit Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 12.07 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.
Section 12.08 Agent in Its Individual Capacity. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Credit Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans made or renewed by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender”, “Lenders”, “Secured Party” and “Secured Parties” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.
Section 12.09 Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent may resign as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, respectively, upon thirty (30) days’ notice to the Lenders, such other Agent and the Borrower. If the Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent shall resign as such Agent in its applicable capacity under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents, then the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of such Agent in its applicable capacity, and the term “Administrative Agent” or “Collateral Agent”, as the case may be, shall mean such successor agent effective upon such appointment and approval, and the former Agent’s rights, powers and duties as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, in its applicable capacity, shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such former Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no applicable successor agent has accepted appointment as such Agent in its applicable capacity by the date that is thirty (30) days following such retiring Agent’s notice of resignation, such retiring Agent’s resignation shall nevertheless thereupon become effective and the Lenders shall assume and perform all of the duties of such Agent hereunder until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor agent as provided for above. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent, as applicable, the provisions of this Article XII shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was an Agent under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

The agreements in this Section 13.05 shall survive repayment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder and termination of this Agreement. To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, no Credit Party, no Lender and no Agent shall assert, and each Credit Party, each Lender and each Agent hereby waives, any claim against any of the Indemnified Parties or any of the Credit Parties, as applicable, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(ii) | Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions: |
(A) | [reserved]; |
(B) | [reserved]; |
(C) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Commitments or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall be at least $1,000,000 and in multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, unless each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consents, which consent, in each case, shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed; provided, however, that no such consent of the Borrower shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; provided further, that contemporaneous assignments to a single assignee made by affiliated Lenders or related Approved Funds and contemporaneous assignments by a single assignor to affiliated Lenders or related Approved Funds shall be aggregated for purposes of meeting the minimum assignment amount requirements stated above;
(D) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, that this paragraph shall not be construed to prohibit the assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations in respect of one Class of Commitments or Loans;

(G) the assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire.
In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to such assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable pro rata share of Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee (by its execution and delivery of the applicable Assignment and Acceptance to the Administrative Agent) and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under Applicable Law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.
(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) of this Section 13.06, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of (and be subject to the obligations of) Sections 2.10, 2.11, 5.04 and 13.05); provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a 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. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 13.06 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 13.06.
(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose on behalf of the Borrower as a non-fiduciary, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Total Commitments of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Credit Parties, the Agents, and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register, as in effect at the close of business on the preceding Business Day, shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; provided that each Lender’s access to the Register shall be limited to the entries with respect to such Lender including the Commitment of, or principal amount of and stated interest on the Loans owing to such Lender.
(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b)(i) of this Section 13.06, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless and until it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.
(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Agents, sell participations to one or more financial institutions or other entities (other than a natural person, a Defaulting Lender, Holdings, any of Holdings’ Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or any Excluded Transferee, to the extent the list thereof is made available by the Borrower to such Lender; provided, that no such consent shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Agents and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document; provided, that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in clause (i) of the proviso to Section 13.01. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 13.06, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of (and be subject to the obligations of) Sections 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 and 5.04 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 13.06. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 13.09(b) as though it were a Lender, provided, that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 13.09(a) as though it were a Lender.
(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.10, 2.11, 2.12 or 5.04 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Credit Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Credit Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
Section 13.07 Replacements of Lenders Under Certain Circumstances. (a) The Borrower, at its sole cost and expense, shall be permitted to either (x) replace any Lender (or any Participant), other than an Affiliate of any Agent, and (y) terminate the Commitments of such Lender, in each case, that (i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing pursuant to Section 2.10, Section 2.11 or Section 5.04, (ii) is affected in the manner described in Section 2.10(a)(iii) and as a result thereof any of the actions described in such Section is required to be taken or (iii) is a Defaulting Lender, provided, that (A) such replacement does not conflict with any Applicable Law, (B) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such replacement, (C) the Borrower shall repay (or the replacement institution shall purchase, at par, plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium) all Loans and other amounts (other than any disputed amounts) pursuant to Section 2.10, Section 2.11 or Section 5.04, as the case may be, owing to such replaced Lender prior to the date of replacement, (D) the replacement institution, if not already a Lender, and the terms and conditions of such replacement, shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, (E) the replaced Lender shall be obligated to make such replacement in accordance with the provisions of Section 13.06 (except that such replaced Lender shall not be obligated to pay any processing and recordation fee required pursuant thereto), (F) any such replacement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any rights that the Borrower, the any Agent or any other Lender shall have against the replaced Lender, and (G) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.10 or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 5.04, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter. In connection with any such replacement, if any such replaced Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance reflecting such replacement within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance to such replaced Lender, then such replaced Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance without any action on the part of the replaced Lender.
(b) If any Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) has (x) failed to consent to a proposed amendment, waiver, discharge or termination, which pursuant to the terms of Section 13.01 requires the consent of all of the Lenders affected and with respect to which the Required Lenders shall have granted their consent or (y) becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, provided that no Default or Event of Default then exists, the Borrower shall have the right (unless such Non-Consenting Lender grants such consent), at their own cost and expense, to replace such Non-Consenting Lender by requiring such Non-Consenting Lender to assign its Loans and Commitments to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, provided, that: (i) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Consenting Lender being replaced shall be paid in full to such Non-Consenting Lender concurrently with such assignment and (ii) the replacement Lender or the Borrower, as the case may be, shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Consenting Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon, plus the Applicable Prepayment Premium. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, the Agents, such Non-Consenting Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 13.06 (except that such Non-Consenting Lender shall not be obligated to pay any processing and recordation fee required pursuant thereto); provided that if any such Non-Consenting Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance reflecting such replacement within five (5) Business Days of the date on which the assignee Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Acceptance to such Non-Consenting Lender, then such Non-Consenting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance without any action on the part of the replaced Lender.
Section 13.08 Securitization. The Credit Parties hereby acknowledge that the Lenders and their Affiliates may securitize the Loans (a “Securitization”) through the pledge of the Loans as collateral security for loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or through the sale of the Loans or the issuance of direct or indirect interests in the Loans to their Controlled Affiliates, in each case, other than to Excluded Transferees, which loans to the Lenders or their Affiliates or direct or indirect interests will be rated by Moody’s, S&P or one or more other rating agencies; provided, that such restrictions on transfers to Excluded Transferees shall not be applicable if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. The Credit Parties shall, to the extent commercially reasonable, cooperate with the Lenders and their Affiliates to effect any and all Securitizations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such Securitization shall release the Lender party thereto from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any pledgee, secured party or any other party to such Securitization for such Lender as a party hereto and no change in ownership of the Loans may be effected except pursuant to Section 13.06.
Section 13.09 Adjustments; Set-off. (a) If any Lender (a “Benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 11.01(g), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans or interest thereon, such Benefited Lender shall (i) notify the Administrative Agent of such fact and (ii) purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loans, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such Benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided, that (i) if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such Benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest and (ii) the provisions of this Section shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including (x) 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 Loans to any assignee or participant (as to which the provisions of this Section shall apply)).
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff.
Each Credit Party consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under Applicable Law, that any Lender acquiring a participation pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Credit Party rights of setoff and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Credit Party in the amount of such participation.
(b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, to the extent consented to by Administrative Agent, in addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, without prior notice to the Borrower or any other Credit Party, any such notice being expressly waived by the Credit Parties to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, upon any amount becoming due and payable by the Borrower hereunder (whether at the stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise) to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower, as the case may be. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Agents after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided, that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.
Section 13.10 Counterparts. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents may be executed by one or more of the parties thereto on any number of separate counterparts (including by facsimile or other electronic transmission), and all of said counterparts taken together shall be deemed to constitute one and the same instrument. A set of the copies of this Agreement signed by all the parties shall be lodged with the Borrower, the Collateral Agent and the Administrative Agent.
Section 13.11 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 13.11, if and to the extent that the enforceability of any provisions in this Agreement relating to Defaulting Lenders shall be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium, reorganization and other similar laws relating to or affecting creditors’ rights generally and general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding in equity or law), as determined in good faith by the Administrative Agent, then such provisions shall be deemed to be in effect only to the extent not so limited.
Section 13.12 Integration. This Agreement and the other Credit Documents represent the agreement of the Credit Parties, the Agents and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any party hereto or thereto relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Credit Documents.

(a) Currency Conversion Procedures for Judgments. If for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or under any other Credit Document in any currency (the “Original Currency”) into another currency (the “Other Currency”), the parties hereby agree, to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law, that the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, on the relevant date, in accordance with its normal procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase the Original Currency with the Other Currency after any premium and costs of exchange on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given.
(b) Indemnity in Certain Events. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any sum due from the Borrower to any Secured Party hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in any Other Currency, whether pursuant to a judgment or otherwise, be discharged only to the extent that, on the Business Day of receipt (if received by 1:00 p.m. (New York time), and otherwise on the following Business Day) by any Secured Party of any sum adjudged to be so due in such Other Currency, such Secured Party may, on the relevant date, in accordance with its normal procedures, purchase the Original Currency with such Other Currency.

(c) Currency Conversion Procedures Generally. For purposes of determining compliance with any incurrence or expenditure tests set forth in Articles IX and/or X or with Dollar-based basket levels appearing hereunder or in definitions contained in Section 1.01, any amounts so incurred, expended or utilized (to the extent incurred, expended or utilized in a currency other than Dollars) shall be converted into Dollars on the basis of the exchange rates (as shown on Reuters ECB page 37 or on such other basis as is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) as in effect on the date of such incurrence, expenditure or utilization under any provision of any such Section or definition that has an aggregate Dollar limitation provided for therein (and to the extent the respective incurrence, expenditure or utilization test regulates the aggregate amount outstanding at any time and it is expressed in terms of Dollars, all outstanding amounts originally incurred or spent in currencies other than Dollars shall be converted into Dollars on the basis of the exchange rates (as shown on Reuters ECB page 37 or on such other basis as is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) as in effect on the date of any new incurrence, expenditure or utilization made under any provision of any such Section that regulates the Dollar amount outstanding at any time).
