Statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q which are not historical facts, so called “forward-looking statements,” are made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, including those detailed in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. See also Part II, Item 1A of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Part I, Item 1A “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements which reflect management’s analysis only as of the date hereof. We assume no obligation to update these forward-looking statements to reflect actual results or changes in factors or assumptions affecting forward-looking statements, except as may be required by law.
Overview
We are a leading global supplier of automation equipment for test and industrial applications. We design, develop, manufacture and sell automatic test systems used to test semiconductors, wireless products, data storage and complex electronics systems in many industries including the consumer electronics, wireless, automotive, industrial, computing, communications, and aerospace and defense industries. Our industrial automation products include collaborative robotic arms, autonomous mobile robots (“AMRs”) and advanced robotic control software used by global manufacturing, logistics and light industrial customers to improve quality, increase manufacturing and material handling efficiency and decrease manufacturing and logistics costs. Our automatic test equipment and industrial automation products and services include:
• | semiconductor test (“Semiconductor Test”) systems; |
• | storage and system level test (“Storage Test”) systems, defense/aerospace (“Defense/Aerospace”) test instrumentation and systems and circuit-board test and inspection (“Production Board Test”) systems (collectively these products represent “System Test”); |
• | wireless test (“Wireless Test”) systems; and |
• | industrial automation (“Industrial Automation”) products. |
The market for our test products is concentrated with a limited number of significant customers accounting for a substantial portion of the purchases of test equipment. A few customers drive significant demand for our test products both through direct sales and sales to the customers’ supply partners. We expect that sales of our test products will continue to be concentrated with a limited number of significant customers for the foreseeable future. In 2022, we expect lower demand in the mobility and compute segments of our Semiconductor Test business due to end market slowdown in these segments as well as slower technology transition in one of our largest end-markets. While there is uncertainty if end markets will recover in 2023, the ramp of 3 nanometer starting in 2023 followed by gate-all-around and increasing multichip packaging remain drivers of growth. We expect Semiconductor Test demand in the automotive and industrial segments to remain strong in 2022.
Our Industrial Automation segment consists of Universal Robots A/S (“UR”), a leading supplier of collaborative robotic arms and Mobile Industrial Robots A/S (“MiR”), a leading maker of AMRs for industrial automation. The market for our Industrial Automation segment products is dependent on the adoption of new automation technologies by large manufacturers as well as small and medium enterprises (SMEs) throughout the world.
Both our test and industrial automation businesses may continue to be impacted by supply constraints, which will in turn impact our revenue and is expected to increase costs in 2022. Through the third quarter of 2022, inflation has not had a material impact on our results. In the third quarter 2022, we were unable to supply approximately $10 million of revenue in our test businesses for which we had customer demand. Our fourth quarter 2022 forecast excludes approximately $15 million of revenue, primarily in our test businesses, due to these continued supply chain constraints.
Our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. While the majority of our revenues are in U.S. dollars, approximately 70 percent of our Industrial Automation revenue is denominated in foreign currencies. In the third quarter of 2022, the strengthening of the U.S. dollar was a factor in lower than forecasted revenues in our Industrial Automation segment. Continued strengthening of the dollar may adversely impact revenue growth in the fourth quarter of 2022.
Our corporate strategy continues to focus on profitably gaining market share in our test businesses through the introduction of differentiated products that target expanding segments and accelerating growth through continued investment in our Industrial Automation businesses. We plan to execute on our strategy while balancing capital allocations between returning capital to our shareholders through stock repurchases and dividends and using capital for opportunistic acquisitions.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic on our Business
The novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic resulted in government authorities implementing numerous measures in an effort to contain the spread of the virus, such as travel bans and restrictions, limitations on gatherings or social distancing requirements, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, vaccination and testing mandates, and business limitations and shutdowns. These measures have impacted our day-to-day operations and disrupted our business, workforce and operations, as well as the operations of our customers, contract manufacturers and suppliers. We are continuing to monitor the rapidly evolving situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly in China, and the availability and impact of vaccinations globally. However, we are unable to accurately predict the full impact of COVID-19, which will depend on future developments that are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted with accuracy, including, but not limited to, any new surges or new strains or variants of the virus in areas where we do business, the availability and use of vaccinations, any further government actions to contain the virus or treat its impact, continuing shutdowns in China, and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume.
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, there has been uncertainty and disruption in the global economy and our markets. We are not aware of any specific event or circumstance that would require an update to our estimates or judgments or a revision of the carrying value of our assets or liabilities as of November 4, 2022, the date of issuance of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.
Health and Safety
In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken proactive, aggressive action to protect the health and safety of our employees, customers, contract manufacturers and suppliers, and we have complied with all government orders around the globe. The spread of COVID-19 has caused us to modify our business practices, which includes implementing social distancing protocols, limiting employee travel and requiring employees to work remotely. We may take further actions as may be required or recommended by government authorities or that we determine are in the best interests of our employees, customers, contract manufacturers and suppliers.
Operations
We believe the COVID-19 pandemic, and the numerous measures implemented by authorities in response, has adversely impacted our results of operations, including by increasing costs, but we cannot accurately estimate the amount of the impact to our third quarter of 2022 financial results or to our future financial results. In addition, the pandemic has disrupted our contract manufacturers and suppliers, and has resulted in supply constraints and short-term cost increases to meet customer demand. While the duration and severity of the pandemic may further impact our workforce and operations, as well as those of our customers, contract manufacturers and suppliers, we expect that our manufacturing facilities will remain operational, at sufficient capacity to support production based on demand and the availability of supply. We are monitoring our operations closely in an effort to avoid any potential productivity losses caused by responses to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Demand
The COVID-19 pandemic significantly increased economic uncertainty in our markets. Demand for our Test products in China and other countries was strong throughout 2021, but the COVID-19 pandemic could cause further economic disruption that could cause demand for our products to decline, which would adversely affect our business.
Liquidity
Although there is continued uncertainty related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our future results, we believe our business model and our current cash reserves leave us well-positioned to manage our business through this crisis. We have a strong balance sheet, as well as an operating model that we believe is capable of flexing up and down with extreme demand swings while still remaining profitable. Based on our analysis, we believe our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents and our currently anticipated operating cash flows will be sufficient to meet our working capital needs and other capital and liquidity requirements for the next twelve months. However, due to the uncertainty related to the future impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, in order to bolster our liquidity position, on May 1, 2020 we entered into a credit agreement providing for a three-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400 million. On December 10, 2021, we amended the credit agreement to extend its maturity to December 10, 2026 as further described in Note H: “Debt.” As described in Note U: “Subsequent Event”, the credit facility was increased to $750 million on October 5, 2022. As of November 4, 2022, we have not borrowed any funds under the credit facility.
We are continuing to monitor the evolving situation regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, the availability of vaccinations where we do business and guidance from government authorities around the world. In these circumstances, there may be developments outside our control requiring us to adjust our operating plan. As a result, given the uncertain nature of this situation, we are not able to accurately predict the full extent of the impact of COVID-19 on our business, financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, or cash flows in the future.
31
Supply Chain Constraints and Inflationary Pressures
The global supply shortage of electrical components, including semiconductor chips, continued to impact our supply chain in the third quarter of 2022. As a result, we experienced, and expect to continue to experience, increases in our lead times and costs for certain components for certain of our products. In addition, while not material, inflationary pressures contributed to increased costs for product components and wage inflation, impacting our cost of products, gross margin and profit for the quarter. Our supply chain team, and our suppliers, continue to manage numerous supply, production, and logistics obstacles. While not material through the third quarter of 2022, in an effort to mitigate these risks, in some cases, we have incurred higher costs due to investment in supply chain resiliency and to secure available inventory or have extended or placed non-cancellable purchase commitments with semiconductor suppliers, which introduces inventory risk if our forecasts and assumptions prove inaccurate. We have also sourced components from additional suppliers and multi-sourced and pre-ordered components and finished goods inventory in some cases in an effort to reduce the impact of the adverse supply chain conditions we have experienced. There is no assurance that these efforts will be successful. In the third quarter 2022, we were unable to supply approximately $10 million of revenue in our test businesses for which we had customer demand. Our fourth quarter 2022 forecast excludes approximately $15 million of revenue, primarily in our test businesses, due to these continued supply chain constraints.
Impact of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on our Business
Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, in February 2022, did not have a significant impact on our business as we have minimal business in Russia and Ukraine, both directly and indirectly. However, following the invasion, the U.S. and other countries imposed significant sanctions against the Russian government and many Russian companies and individuals. Although we do not have significant operations in Russia, the sanctions and Russia’s response to the sanctions, have impacted our business in other countries and could have a negative impact on our future revenue and supply chain, either of which could adversely affect our business and financial results. In addition, the global economic uncertainty following the invasion, sanctions and Russia’s response to the sanctions could impact demand for our products.
Impact of October 7, 2022 U.S. Department of Commerce Regulations on our Business
On October 7, 2022, the U.S. Department of Commerce published new regulations restricting the export to China of advanced semiconductors, supercomputer technology, equipment for the manufacturing of advanced semiconductors and components and technology for the manufacturing in China of certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The new restrictions are lengthy and complex. We continue to assess the impact of these regulations on our business. We have determined that restrictions on the sale of semiconductor testers in China to test certain advanced semiconductors will impact our sales to certain companies in China. Several multinational companies manufacturing these advanced semiconductors in China have obtained one-year licenses allowing suppliers such as Teradyne to continue to provide testers to the facilities operated by these companies. We expect that other companies manufacturing advanced semiconductors in China will not receive licenses, thereby restricting our ability to provide testers to the facilities operated by these companies that do not receive a license. We also are assessing the filing of license requests to sell to and support certain customers in China for certain end uses that, if granted, may reduce the impact of these restrictions on our business. At this time, we do not know the impact these end user and end use restrictions will have on our business in China or on future revenues. In addition to the specific restrictions impacting our business, the regulations may have an adverse impact on certain actual or potential customers and on the global semiconductor industry. To the extent the regulations impact actual and potential customers or disrupt the global semiconductor industry, our business and revenues will be adversely impacted. We also have determined that the restrictions on the export of certain US origin components and technology for use in the development and production in China of certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment impact our manufacturing and development operations in China. We have received a temporary authorization from the U.S. Department of Commerce allowing us to continue our manufacturing and development operations in China until the U.S. Department of Commerce issues a license to replace this temporary authorization. We will file an application with the U.S. Department of Commerce for a license to replace the temporary authorization by November 17, 2022. We cannot assess the likelihood or timing of receiving this license. In addition to requesting a license, we are implementing procedures for minimizing the impact of these new regulations on our operations in China, but there is no assurance that these procedures will succeed.
See Part II—Item 1A, “Risk Factors,” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021 for our risk factors regarding risks associated with both the COVID-19 pandemic and international conflicts.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We have identified the policies which are critical to understanding our business and our results of operations. There have been no significant changes during the nine months ended October 2, 2022 to the items disclosed as our critical accounting policies and estimates in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, except as noted below.
32
Critical accounting estimates are complex and may require significant judgment by management. Changes to the underlying assumptions may have a material impact on our financial condition and results of operations. These estimates may change, as new events occur, and additional information is obtained. Actual results could differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
Convertible Debt
We adopted Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) ASU 2020-06 – “Debt—Debt with Conversion and Other Options and Derivatives and Hedging—Contracts in Entity’s Own Equity,” on January 1, 2022 using the modified retrospective method of adoption. Under ASU 2020-06, we account for a convertible debt instrument as a single liability measured at its amortized cost, as long as no other features require bifurcation and recognition as derivatives. Unsettled shares are recorded in current debt, and there is no recognition of a debt discount, which was previously amortized to interest expense. We use the if-converted method in the diluted EPS calculation for convertible instruments. As a result of adoption, we recorded an increase of $1.4 million to current debt for unsettled shares, an increase of $1.8 million to deferred tax assets, an increase of $6.6 million to long-term debt for unamortized debt discount, and an increase to retained earnings of $94.6 million for the reclassification of the equity component. Mezzanine equity representing unsettled shares value was reduced to zero and additional paid-in capital was reduced by $100.8 million.
Preparation of Financial Statements and Use of Estimates
The preparation of consolidated financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported in the financial statements. Actual results may differ significantly from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

The decrease in income before income taxes in Semiconductor Test was driven primarily by lower revenues in mobile applications, partially offset by higher memory test sales. The increase in income before income taxes in System Test was primarily due to higher sales in Storage Test of hard disk drive testers. The decrease in income before taxes in Wireless Test was driven primarily by a decrease in sales of connectivity and cellular test product sales.

Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the three months ended October 2, 2022 and October 3, 2021 was 18.9% and 13.8%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate from the three months ended October 3, 2021 to the three months ended October 2, 2022 was primarily attributable to a shift in the geographic distribution of income, which increases the income subject to taxation in higher tax rate jurisdictions relative to lower tax rate jurisdictions, an increase in non-deductible officers’ compensation and a reduction in the benefit related to the international provisions of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. These increases were partially offset by an increase in benefit from tax credits.

The decrease in Semiconductor Test revenues of $450.9 million, or 22.0%, was driven primarily by lower tester sales in high performance compute processor and mobile applications. The increase in System Test revenues of $29.2 million, or 8.6%, was primarily due to higher sales in Storage Test of hard disk drive testers, and higher sales in Defense/Aerospace and in Production Board Test. The rise in Industrial Automation revenues of $29.6 million, or 11.2%, was driven primarily by higher demand for UR’s collaborative robotic arms and MiR’s autonomous mobile robots, partially offset by changes in foreign exchange rates. The decrease in Wireless Test revenues of $3.0 million, or 1.8%, was primarily due to a decrease in cellular test product sales, partially offset by an increase in connectivity test product sales.

Restructuring and Other
During the nine months ended October 2, 2022, we recorded a charge of $14.7 million related to the arbitration claim filed against Teradyne and AutoGuide related to an earn-out dispute, which was settled on March 25, 2022 for $26.7 million, a charge of $2.7 million for an increase in environmental and legal liabilities, and $2.1 million of severance charges primarily in Industrial Automation. Previously, in the three months ended December 31, 2021, we recorded a charge of $12.0 million related to this earn-out dispute.
During the nine months ended October 3, 2021, we recorded a gain of $7.2 million for the decrease in the fair value of the AutoGuide contingent consideration liability, partially offset by a charge of $1.7 million for an increase in environmental and legal liabilities, and $1.2 million of severance charges primarily in Industrial Automation.

The decrease in income before income taxes in Semiconductor Test was driven primarily by lower revenues in high performance compute processor and mobile applications. The increase in income before income taxes in System Test was primarily due to higher sales in Storage Test of system level and hard disk drive testers, and elevated sales in Defense/Aerospace and in Production Board Test. The decrease in income before taxes in Wireless Test was driven primarily by lower sales in cellular test products partially offset by elevated sales in connectivity test products. The loss before income taxes in Corporate and Eliminations was primarily due to legal settlement charges related to litigation for the earn-out dispute in connection with the AutoGuide acquisition.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate for the nine months ended October 2, 2022 and October 3, 2021 was 15.8% and 12.7%, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate from the nine months ended October 3, 2021 to the nine months ended October 2, 2022 was primarily attributable to a shift in the geographic distribution of income, which increases the income subject to taxation in higher tax rate jurisdictions relative to lower tax rate jurisdictions, an increase in non-deductible officers’ compensation and a reduction in the benefit related to the international provisions of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. These increases in expense were partially offset by increases in benefit from tax credits and discrete benefit related to equity compensation.
Contractual Obligations
There have been no changes outside of the ordinary course of business to our contractual obligations as disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our cash, cash equivalents, and marketable securities balances decreased by $613.2 million in the nine months ended October 2, 2022 to $887.1 million.
Operating activities during the nine months ended October 2, 2022 provided cash of $394.5 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used cash of $271.7 million. This was due to a $158.9 million increase in operating assets and a $112.8 million decrease in operating liabilities.
The increase in operating assets was due to a $94.3 million increase in prepayments and other assets due to prepayments to our contract manufacturers, a $68.8 million increase in inventories, partially offset by a $4.2 million decrease in accounts receivable.
The decrease in operating liabilities was due to a $82.9 million decrease in accrued employee compensation, a $31.4 million decrease in income taxes, a $7.5 million decrease in other accrued liabilities, a $5.9 million decrease in deferred revenue and customer advance payments and $3.9 million of retirement plan contributions, partially offset by an $18.7 million increase in accounts payable.
Investing activities during the nine months ended October 2, 2022 provided cash of $45.4 million due to $259.2 million and $182.1 million in proceeds from sales and maturities of marketable securities, respectively, partially offset by $267.2 million used for purchases of marketable securities, and $128.7 million used for purchases of property, plant and equipment.
Financing activities during the nine months ended October 2, 2022 used cash of $858.8 million due to $750.0 million used for the repurchase of 7.2 million shares of common stock at an average price of $103.83 per share, $52.6 million used for dividend payments, $52.0 million used for payments of convertible debt principal, and $33.0 million used for payment related to net settlements of employee stock compensation awards, partially offset by $28.7 million from the issuance of common stock under employee stock purchase and stock option plans.
Operating activities during the nine months ended October 3, 2021 provided cash of $767.1 million. Changes in operating assets and liabilities used cash of $167.7 million. This was due to a $219.9 million increase in operating assets and a $52.2 million increase in operating liabilities.
The increase in operating assets was due to a $138.6 million increase in prepayments and other assets due to prepayments to our contract manufacturers, a $103.3 million increase in accounts receivable due to greater sales, partially offset by a $21.9 million decrease in inventories.
The change in operating liabilities was due to increases of $63.5 million in other accrued liabilities, $23.8 million in accounts payable, and $8.7 million in deferred revenue and customer advance payments, partially offset by a $17.4 million decrease in income taxes, a $22.3 million decrease in accrued employee compensation, and $4.1 million of retirement plan contributions.
Investing activities during the nine months ended October 3, 2021 provided cash of $156.1 million due to $571.3 million and $209.4 million in proceeds from maturities and sales of marketable securities, partially offset by $509.5 million used for purchases of marketable securities, $103.2 million used for purchases of property, plant and equipment and $12.0 million used for an investment in MachineMetrics, Inc.(“MachineMetrics”).
Financing activities during the nine months ended October 3, 2021 used cash of $757.3 million due to $406.2 million used for the repurchase of 3.3 million shares of common stock at an average price of $123.53 per share, $302.0 million used for payments of convertible debt principal, $49.7 million used for dividend payments, and $32.0 million used for payments related to net settlements of employee stock compensation awards, partially offset by $32.6 million from the issuance of common stock under employee stock purchase and stock option plans.
In January 2022, May 2022 and August 2022, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.11 per share. Dividend payments for the three and nine months ended October 2, 2022 were $17.1 million and $52.6 million, respectively.
In January 2021, May 2021 and August 2021, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.10 per share. Dividend payments for the three and nine months ended October 3, 2021were $16.4 million and $49.7 million, respectively.
In January 2021, our Board of Directors approved a new repurchase program for up to $2.0 billion of common stock. Unless terminated by resolution of our Board of Directors, the repurchase program will expire when we have repurchased all shares authorized for repurchase under the share repurchase program.
40
During the nine months ended October 2, 2022, we repurchased 7.2 million shares of common stock for $750.0 million at an average price of $103.83 per share. During the nine months ended October 3, 2021, we repurchased 3.3 million shares of common stock for $406.2 million at an average price of $123.53 per share. The cumulative repurchases under the $2.0 billion common stock repurchase program as of October 2, 2022 were 12.0 million shares of common stock for $1,350.0 million at an average price per share of $112.55.
While we declared a quarterly cash dividend and authorized a share repurchase program, we may reduce or eliminate the cash dividend or share repurchase program in the future. Future cash dividends and stock repurchases are subject to the discretion of our Board of Directors, which will consider, among other things, our earnings, capital requirements and financial condition.
On May 1, 2020, we entered into a credit agreement providing a three-year, senior secured revolving credit facility of $400 million. On December 10, 2021, the credit agreement was amended to extend the senior secured revolving credit facility to December 10, 2026. On October 5, 2022, the credit agreement was amended to increase the amount of the credit facility to $750.0 million from $400.0 million. As of November 4, 2022, we have not borrowed any funds under the credit facility.
We believe our cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities balance will be sufficient to pay our quarterly dividend and meet our working capital and expenditure needs for at least the next twelve months. At this time, the COVID-19 pandemic has not had an impact on our liquidity, but there is no assurance that continued impacts resulting from the pandemic will not have an adverse effect in the future.
Equity Compensation Plans
As discussed in Note Q: “Stock-Based Compensation” in our 2021 Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have a 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan and a 2006 Equity and Cash Compensation Incentive Plan (the “2006 Equity Plan”).
The purpose of the 1996 Employee Stock Purchase Plan is to encourage stock ownership by all eligible employees of Teradyne. The purpose of the 2006 Equity Plan is to provide equity ownership and compensation opportunities in Teradyne to our employees, officers, directors, consultants and/or advisors. Both plans were approved by our shareholders.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
For the nine months ended October 2, 2022, there were no recently issued accounting pronouncements that had, or are expected to have, a material impact to our consolidated financial statements.
Item 3: | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks |
For “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk” affecting Teradyne, see Part 2 Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks,” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on February 23, 2022. There were no material changes in our exposure to market risk from those set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021.
In addition to market risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, we have an equity price risk related to the fair value of our convertible senior unsecured notes issued in December 2016. In December 2016, Teradyne issued $460 million aggregate principal amount of 1.25% convertible senior unsecured notes (the “Notes”) due December 15, 2023. As of October 2, 2022, $65.0 million of principal remained outstanding and the Notes had a fair value of $154.5 million. The table below provides a sensitivity analysis of hypothetical 10% changes of Teradyne’s stock price as of the end of the third quarter of 2022 and the estimated impact on the fair value of the Notes. The selected scenarios are not predictions of future events, but rather are intended to illustrate the effect such event may have on the fair value of the Notes. The fair value of the Notes is subject to equity price risk due to the convertible feature. The fair value of the Notes will generally increase as Teradyne’s common stock price increases and will generally decrease as the common stock price declines in value. The change in stock price affects the fair value of the Notes, but does not impact Teradyne’s financial position, cash flows or results of operations due to the fixed nature of the debt obligation. Additionally, we carry the Notes at face value less unamortized discount on our balance sheet, and we present the fair value for required disclosure purposes only. In connection with the offering of the Notes we also sold warrants to the option counterparties. These transactions have been accounted for as an adjustment to our shareholders’ equity. The convertible note hedge transactions are expected to reduce the potential equity dilution upon conversion of the Notes. The warrants along with any shares issuable upon conversion of the Notes will have a dilutive effect on our earnings per share to the extent that the average market price of our common stock for a given reporting period exceeds the applicable strike price or conversion price of the warrants or Notes, respectively.

Item 4: | Controls and Procedures |
As of the end of the period covered by this report, our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) or Rule 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act. Based upon that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in ensuring that material information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, including ensuring that such material information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the three months ended October 2, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1: | Legal Proceedings |
We are subject to various legal proceedings and claims which have arisen in the ordinary course of business such as, but not limited to, patent, employment, commercial and environmental matters. Teradyne believes that it has meritorious defenses against all pending claims and intends to vigorously contest them. While it is not possible to predict or determine the outcomes of any pending claims or to provide possible ranges of losses that may arise, Teradyne believes the potential losses associated with all of these actions are unlikely to have a material adverse effect on its business, financial position or results of operations.
On March 8, 2021, Industrial Automation LLC submitted a demand for arbitration against Teradyne and AutoGuide in Wilmington, Delaware alleging that Teradyne and AutoGuide breached certain provisions of the Membership Interests Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated as of October 18, 2019, among Industrial Automation LLC, Teradyne and AutoGuide. The arbitration demand sought full acceleration of the maximum earn-out amount payable under the Purchase Agreement, or $106.9 million, for the alleged breach of the earn-out provisions of the Purchase Agreement. On March 25, 2022, the arbitration claim was settled for $26.7 million. As a result, Teradyne has no remaining earn-out obligations.
Item 1A: | Risk Factors |
In addition to other information set forth in this Form 10-Q, including the risk discussed below, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A: Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. The risk factors described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K remain applicable to our business and many of these risks could be further increased due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
The risks described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K are not the only risks that we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not currently known to us or that we currently deem to be immaterial also may materially adversely affect our business, financial condition and/or operating results.
42
The global supply shortage of electrical components and inflationary cost increases has impacted our ability to meet customer demand and could adversely affect our business and financial results.
During 2022, there has been a global supply shortage of electrical components, including semiconductor chips. As a result, we have experienced, and expect to continue to experience, increases in our lead times and costs for certain components for certain products and delays in the delivery of some orders placed by our customers. While not material, year to date 2022, in an effort to mitigate these risks, in some cases, we have incurred higher costs due to investment in supply chain resiliency and to secure available inventory or have extended or placed non-cancellable purchase commitments with semiconductor suppliers, which introduces inventory risk if our forecasts and assumptions prove inaccurate. We have also sourced components from additional suppliers and multi-sourced and pre-ordered components and finished goods inventory in some cases in an effort to reduce the impact of the adverse supply chain conditions we have experienced. However, if we are unable to secure manufacturing capacities from our current or new suppliers and contract manufacturers, on acceptable terms or at all, or successfully manage our purchase commitments and inventory for components, our ability to deliver our products to our customers in the desired quantities, at competitive prices or in a timely manner may be negatively impacted for the remainder of 2022 and into 2023. In the third quarter 2022, we were unable to supply approximately $10 million of revenue in our test businesses for which we had customer demand. Our fourth quarter 2022 forecast excludes approximately $15 million of revenue, primarily in our test businesses, due to these continued supply chain constraints. Also, our suppliers and contract manufacturers have increased their prices, which increased our cost of products. We have been and may continue to be, affected by wage inflation. We have, and may continue to attempt to, offset the effect of these inflationary pressures by increasing the prices of our products. However, we may not be fully able to pass additional costs on to our customers, which could have a negative impact on our results of operations and financial condition.
Trade regulations and restrictions impact our ability to manufacture certain products and to sell products to and support certain customers, which may materially adversely affect our sales and results of operations.
We are subject to U.S. laws and regulations that limit and restrict the export of some of our products and services and may restrict our transactions with certain customers, business partners and other persons. In certain circumstances, export control and economic sanctions regulations prohibit the export of certain products, services and technologies, and in other circumstances are required to obtain an export license before exporting the controlled item. We must also comply with export restrictions and laws imposed by other countries affecting trade and investments. We maintain an export compliance program but there are risks that the compliance controls could be circumvented, exposing us to legal liabilities. Compliance with these laws has not significantly limited our sales but could significantly limit them in the future. Changes in, and responses to, U.S. trade policy could reduce the competitiveness of our products and cause our sales to drop, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition or results of operations.
The U.S. government from time to time has issued export restrictions that prohibit U.S. companies from exporting U.S. manufactured products, foreign manufactured products with more than 25% controlled U.S. content, as well as U.S. origin technology. For example, the U.S. Department of Commerce has restricted the access of U.S. origin technologies to certain Chinese companies by adding those companies to the Entity List under U.S. Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”).
On May 16, 2019, Huawei and 68 of its affiliates, including HiSilicon, were added to the U.S. Department of Commerce Entity List under the EAR. This action by the U.S. Department of Commerce imposed new export licensing requirements on exports, re-exports, and in-country transfers of all U.S. regulated products, software and technology to the designated Huawei entities. On August 17, 2020, the U.S. Department of Commerce published final regulations expanding the scope of the U.S. EAR to include additional products that would become subject to export restrictions relating to Huawei entities including HiSilicon. These new regulations restrict the sale to Huawei and the designated Huawei entities of certain non-U.S. made items, such as semiconductor devices, manufactured for or sold to Huawei entities including HiSilicon under specific, detailed conditions set forth in the new regulations. These new regulations have impacted our sales to Huawei, HiSilicon and their suppliers. We are taking appropriate actions, including filing license applications and obtaining licenses from the U.S. Department of Commerce. However, we do not expect these actions will mitigate the impact of the regulations on our sales to Huawei, HiSilicon and other suppliers. As a result, the regulations will continue to have an adverse impact on our business and financial results. It is uncertain the extent these new regulations and any additional regulations that may be implemented by the U.S. Department of Commerce or other government agency may have on our business with other customers or potential customers. Also, our controls related to Entity List compliance could be circumvented, exposing us to legal liabilities.
On April 28, 2020, the U.S. Department of Commerce published new export control regulations for certain U.S. products and technology sold to military end users or for military end-use in China, Russia and Venezuela. The definition of military end user is broad. The regulations went into effect on June 29, 2020. In December 2020, the U.S. Department of Commerce issued a list of companies in China and other countries that it considered to be military end users. Compliance with the new export controls has impacted our ability to sell products to certain customers in China. In addition, while we maintain an export compliance program, our compliance controls could be circumvented, exposing us to legal liabilities. We will continue to assess the impact of the new export controls on our business and operations and take appropriate actions, including filing for licenses with the U.S. Department of Commerce, to minimize any disruption. However, we cannot be certain that the actions we take will mitigate all the risks associated with the export controls that may impact our business.
43
On October 7, 2022, the U.S. Department of Commerce published new regulations restricting the export to China of advanced semiconductors, supercomputer technology, equipment for the manufacturing of advanced semiconductors and components and technology for the manufacturing in China of certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment. The new restrictions are lengthy and complex. We continue to assess the impact of these regulations on our business. We have determined that restrictions on the sale of semiconductor testers in China to test certain advanced semiconductors will impact our sales to certain companies in China. Several multinational companies manufacturing these advanced semiconductors in China have obtained one-year licenses allowing suppliers such as Teradyne to continue to provide testers to the facilities operated by these companies. We expect that other companies manufacturing advanced semiconductors in China will not receive licenses, thereby restricting our ability to provide testers to the facilities operated by these companies that do not receive a license. We also are assessing the filing of license requests to sell to and support certain customers in China for certain end uses that, if granted, may reduce the impact of these restrictions on our business. At this time, we do not know the impact these end user and end use restrictions will have on our business in China or on future revenues. In addition to the specific restrictions impacting our business, the regulations may have an adverse impact on certain actual or potential customers and on the global semiconductor industry. To the extent the regulations impact actual and potential customers or disrupt the global semiconductor industry, our business and revenues will be adversely impacted. We also have determined that the restrictions on the export of certain US origin components and technology for use in the development and production in China of certain semiconductor manufacturing equipment impact our manufacturing and development operations in China. We have received a temporary authorization from the U.S. Department of Commerce allowing us to continue our manufacturing and development operations in China until the U.S. Department of Commerce issues a license to replace this temporary authorization. We will file an application with the U.S. Department of Commerce for a license to replace the temporary authorization by November 17, 2022. We cannot assess the likelihood or timing of receiving this license. In addition to requesting a license, we are implementing procedures for minimizing the impact of these new regulations on our operations in China, but there is no assurance that these procedures will succeed.
In response to the regulations issued by the U.S. Department of Commerce, the Chinese government has passed new laws, including blocking legislation, which may impact our business activities in China. The Company is assessing the potential impact of these new Chinese laws and monitoring relevant laws and regulations issued by the Chinese government. The impact of these new Chinese laws on our business activities in China remains uncertain at this time.
Foreign currency exchange rates and fluctuations in those rates may affect the Company’s ability to realize projected growth rates in its sales and earnings.
Our financial statements are denominated in U.S. dollars. While the majority of our revenues are in U.S. dollars, approximately 70 percent of our Industrial Automation revenue is denominated in foreign currencies. Correspondingly, our results of operations and our ability to realize projected growth rates in sales and earnings could be adversely affected if the U.S. dollar strengthens significantly against foreign currencies.
Item 2: | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds |
In January 2021, Teradyne’s Board of Directors approved a new repurchase program for up to $2.0 billion of common stock. During the nine months ended October 2, 2022, we repurchased 7.2 million shares of common stock for $750.0 million at an average price of $103.83 per share. During the nine months ended October 3, 2021, we repurchased 3.3 million shares of common stock for $406.2 million at an average price of $123.53 per share. The cumulative repurchases under the $2.0 billion common stock repurchase program as of October 2, 2022 were 12.0 million shares of common stock for $1,350.0 million at an average price per share of $112.55.

Section 2.4 Swingline Commitment. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Swingline Lender may, in its sole discretion, make Swingline Loans in Dollars to
the Borrower, from time to time during the Availability Period, in an aggregate principal amount outstanding at any time not to exceed the lesser of (i) the Swingline Commitment then in effect and (ii) the difference between the Aggregate
Revolving Commitment Amount and the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposures of all Lenders; provided that the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan.
The Borrower shall be entitled to borrow, repay and reborrow Swingline Loans in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. (b) The Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) of each Swingline
Borrowing, substantially in the form of Exhibit E attached hereto (a Notice of Swingline Borrowing), prior to 10:00 a.m. (or such later time as the Swingline Lender may agree in its sole discretion) on the requested date of
each Swingline Borrowing. Each Notice of Swingline Borrowing shall be irrevocable and shall specify (i) the principal amount of such Swingline Borrowing, (ii) the date of such Swingline Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day) and
(iii) the account of the Borrower to which the proceeds of such Swingline Borrowing should be credited. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of each Notice of Swingline Borrowing. The aggregate principal amount of
each Swingline Loan shall not be less than $500,000 or a larger multiple of $100,000, or such other minimum amounts agreed to by the Swingline Lender and the Borrower. The Swingline Lender will make the proceeds of each Swingline Loan available to
the Borrower in Dollars in immediately available funds at the account specified by the Borrower in the applicable Notice of Swingline Borrowing not later than 1:00 p.m. on the requested date of such Swingline Borrowing. (c) The Swingline Lender, at any time and from time to time in its sole discretion, may, but in no event no less frequently than once each
calendar week shall, on behalf of the Borrower (which hereby irrevocably authorizes and directs the Swingline Lender to act on its behalf), give a Notice of Swingline Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders (including the
Swingline - 44 -
Lender) to make Base Rate Loans in an amount equal to the unpaid principal amount of any Swingline Loan. Each Lender will make the proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing
available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender in accordance with Section 2.6, which will be used solely for the repayment of such Swingline Loan. (d) If for any reason a Base Rate Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in
accordance with the foregoing provisions, then each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender) shall purchase an undivided participating interest in such Swingline Loan in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share thereof on the date that such Base Rate
Borrowing should have occurred. On the date of such required purchase, each Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds, the amount of its participating interest to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender.
(e) Each Lenders obligation to make a Base Rate Loan pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section or to purchase participating
interests pursuant to subsection (d) of this Section shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such
Lender or any other Person may have or claim against the Swingline Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of any Lenders Revolving
Commitment, (iii) the existence (or alleged existence) of any event or condition which has had or could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by any Loan
Party, the Administrative Agent or any Lender or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing. If such amount is not in fact made available to the Swingline Lender by any Lender, the
Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender, together with accrued interest thereon for each day from the date of demand thereof (x) at the Federal Funds Rate until the second Business Day after such
demand and (y) at the Base Rate at all times thereafter. Until such time as such Lender makes its required payment, the Swingline Lender shall be deemed to continue to have outstanding Swingline Loans in the amount of the unpaid participation
for all purposes of the Loan Documents. In addition, such Lender shall be deemed to have assigned any and all payments made of principal and interest on its Loans and any other amounts due to it hereunder to the Swingline Lender to fund the amount
of such Lenders participation interest in such Swingline Loans that such Lender failed to fund pursuant to this Section, until such amount has been purchased in full.

available funds by 2:00 p.m. to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office; provided that the Swingline Loans will be made as set forth in Section 2.4. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower by
promptly crediting the amounts that it receives, in like funds by the close of business on such proposed date, to an account designated by the Borrower to the Administrative Agent. (b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified by any Lender prior to 5:00 p.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the date of a
- 45 -
such date, and the Administrative Agent, in reliance on such assumption, may make available to the Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If such corresponding amount is not in fact made
available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender on the date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover such corresponding amount on demand from such Lender together with interest (x) at the Federal Funds Rate
until the second Business Day after such demand and (y) at the Base Rate at all times thereafter. If such Lender does not pay such corresponding amount forthwith upon the Administrative Agents demand therefor, the Administrative Agent
shall promptly notify the Borrower, and the Borrower shall immediately pay such corresponding amount to the Administrative Agent together with interest at the rate specified for such Borrowing. Nothing in this subsection shall be deemed to relieve
any Lender from its obligation to fund its Pro Rata Share of any Borrowing hereunder or to prejudice any rights which the Borrower may have against any Lender as a result of any default by such Lender hereunder. (c) All Revolving Borrowings shall be made by the Lenders on the basis of their respective Pro Rata Shares. No Lender shall be responsible for
any default by any other Lender in its obligations hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make its Loans provided to be made by it hereunder, regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its Loans hereunder. Section 2.7 Interest Elections. (a) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to
convert such Borrowing into a different Type or to continue such Borrowing, all as provided in this Section but subject to Section 2.16. The Borrower may elect different options with respect to different portions of the affected
Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding Loans comprising such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. (b) To make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower shall give the Administrative Agent written notice (or telephonic notice
promptly confirmed in writing) of each Borrowing that is to be converted or continued, as the case may be, substantially in the form of Exhibit F attached hereto (a Notice of Conversion/Continuation) (x) prior to 11:00
a.m. one (1) Business Day prior to the requested date of a conversion into a Base Rate Borrowing and (y) prior to 12:00 p.m. three (3)
U.S. Government Securities Business Days prior to a continuation
of or conversion into a

(c) If, on the expiration of any Interest Period in respect of any (d) Upon receipt of any Notice of Conversion/Continuation, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of the details thereof
and of such Lenders portion of each resulting Borrowing. Section 2.8 Optional Reduction and Termination of
Commitments. (a) Unless previously terminated, all Revolving Commitments, Swingline Commitments and LC Commitments shall
terminate on the Maturity Date. (b) Upon at least three (3) Business Days prior written notice (or telephonic notice promptly
confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent (which notice shall be irrevocable), the Borrower may reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in part or terminate the Aggregate Revolving Commitments in whole; provided that (i) any
partial reduction shall apply to reduce proportionately and permanently the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) any partial reduction pursuant to this Section shall be in an amount of at least $1,000,000 and any larger multiple of
$1,000,000, and (iii) no such reduction shall be permitted which would reduce the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount to an amount less than the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate outstanding Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders. Any such
reduction in the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount below the principal amount of the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment shall result in a dollar-for-dollar reduction in the Swingline Commitment and the LC Commitment. (c) With the written approval of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may terminate (on a non-ratable basis) the unused amount of the
Revolving Commitment of a Defaulting Lender, and in such event the provisions of Section 2.26 will apply to all amounts thereafter paid by the Borrower for the account of any such Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether on
account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity or other amounts); provided that such termination will not be deemed to be a waiver or release of any claim that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender or
any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender. Section 2.9 Repayment of Loans. The outstanding principal
amount of all Revolving Loans and Swingline Loans shall be due and payable in Dollars (together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon) on the Maturity Date. Section 2.10 Evidence of Indebtedness. (a) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice appropriate records evidencing the Indebtedness of the Borrower to such
Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable thereon and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall maintain
appropriate records in which shall be recorded (i) the Revolving Commitment of each Lender, (ii) the amount of each Loan made hereunder by each Lender, the Class and Type thereof and, in the case of each - 47 -
payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder in respect of the Loans and (vi) both the date and amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent
hereunder from the Borrower in respect of the Loans and each Lenders Pro Rata Share thereof. Subject to the entries in the Register, the entries made in such records shall be prima facie evidence absent manifest error of the existence
and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided that the failure or delay of any Lender or the Administrative Agent in maintaining or making entries into any such record or any error therein shall not in any manner
affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans (both principal and unpaid accrued interest) of such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. (b) This Agreement evidences the obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans and is being executed as a noteless credit
agreement. However, at the request of any Lender (including the Swingline Lender) at any time, the Borrower agrees that it will prepare, execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to Section 2.11 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to
time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, without premium or penalty, by giving written notice (or telephonic notice promptly confirmed in writing) to the Administrative Agent no later than (i) in the case of any prepayment of any Section 2.12 Mandatory Prepayments. If at any time (i) other than as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange
rates, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders exceeds the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, as reduced pursuant to Section 2.8 or otherwise, or (ii) solely as a result of fluctuations in
currency exchange rates, the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders exceeds 105% of the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, as reduced pursuant to Section 2.8 or otherwise, then in each such case
the Borrower shall immediately repay the Swingline Loans and the Revolving Loans in an amount equal to such excess, together with all accrued and unpaid interest on such excess amount and any amounts due under Section 2.19. Each
prepayment shall be applied as follows: first, to the Swingline Loans to the full extent thereof; second, to the Base Rate Loans to the full extent thereof; and third, to the - 48 -

provisions of this Section plus 2.00% and (ii) in the case of any other Obligation, the rate then applicable to Base Rate Loans plus 2.00%, in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such Event of

Bank and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost
to such Lender of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining a then, from time to time, such Lender or the Issuing Bank may provide the Borrower (with a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent) with written notice and
demand with respect to such increased costs or reduced amounts, and within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice and a reasonably detailed written demand, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be,
such additional amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank for any such increased costs incurred or reduction suffered. (b) If any Lender or the Issuing Bank shall have determined that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity ratios or requirements has
or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lenders or the Issuing Banks capital (or on the capital of the Parent Company of such Lender or the Issuing Bank) as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or
in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such Parent Company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lenders or the Issuing Banks policies or
the policies of such Parent Company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then, from time to time, such Lender or the Issuing Bank may provide the Borrower (with a copy thereof to the Administrative Agent) with written notice and demand
with respect to such reduced amounts, and within thirty (30) days after receipt of such notice and a reasonably detailed written demand the Borrower shall pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amounts as
will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such Parent Company for any such reduction suffered. - 54 -
(c) A certificate of such Lender or the Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts
necessary to compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank or the Parent Company of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, specified in subsection (a) or (b) of this Section shall be delivered to the Borrower (with a copy to the
Administrative Agent) and shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or the Issuing Bank
to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lenders or the Issuing Banks right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or the
Issuing Bank under this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than six (6) months prior to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank notifies the Borrower of such increased costs or reductions and of such Lenders
or the Issuing Banks intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then such six-month period shall be extended to include
the period of such retroactive effect. Section 2.19 Funding Indemnity. In the event of (a) the payment of any
principal of a
Section 2.20 Taxes. (a) Defined Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.20, the term Lender includes Issuing Bank and the term
applicable law includes FATCA. - 55 -
(b) Payments Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation
of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent)
requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount deducted or withheld to
the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been made
(including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made. (c) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. The Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes. (d)
Indemnification by the Borrower. The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient, within ten (10) Business Days after reasonably detailed written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes
imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect
thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (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. (e) Indemnification by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) Business Days
after a written demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the
obligation of the Borrower to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lenders failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.4(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes
attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or
legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby
authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the
Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e). (f) Evidence of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by the
Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.20, the Borrower or other Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such
Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. - 56 -
(g) Status of Lenders. (i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any
Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower
or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other
documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or
information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in
Section 2.20(g)(ii)(A), (B) and (D) below) shall not be required if in the Lenders reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or
expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender. (ii) Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, (A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative
Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such
Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; (B) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally
entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to
time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable: (i) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party
(x) with respect to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed 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 Loan 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; - 57 -
(iii) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the
exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a bank within the meaning of
Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a 10 percent shareholder of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a controlled foreign corporation described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the
Code (a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or (iv) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form
W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 or Exhibit G-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable;
provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit G-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner; (C) any Foreign
Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender
under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in
U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(D) if a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by
FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the
Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by
Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under
FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lenders obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), FATCA shall
include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement. - 58 -
Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or
inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so. (h) Treatment of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a
refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.20 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to
such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made under this Section with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than
any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph
(h) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the
contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (h) the payment of which would place the indemnified party in a less favorable net
after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with
respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party
or any other Person. (i) Survival. Each partys obligations under this Section 2.20 shall survive the resignation
or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document. Section 2.21 Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs. (a) The Borrower shall make each payment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC
Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.18, 2.19 or 2.20, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m. on the date when due, in immediately available funds, free and clear of any defenses, rights of set-off, counterclaim,
or (subject to Section 2.20) withholding or deduction of taxes. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for
purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at the Payment Office, except payments to be made directly to the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that
payments pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 and 10.3 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other
Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any
payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be made payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars or, to the extent expressly set forth in Section 2.22, the applicable Alternative
Currency. - 59 -
(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative
Agent to pay fully all amounts of principal, unreimbursed LC Disbursements, interest and fees then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied as follows: first, to all fees and reimbursable expenses of the Administrative Agent then due and
payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents; second, to all reimbursable expenses of the Lenders and all fees and reimbursable expenses of the Issuing Bank then due and payable pursuant to any of the Loan Documents, pro rata to the
Lenders and the Issuing Bank based on their respective pro rata shares of such fees and expenses; third, to all interest and fees then due and payable hereunder, pro rata to the Lenders based on their respective pro rata
shares of such interest and fees; and fourth, to all principal of the Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due and payable hereunder, pro rata to the parties entitled thereto based on their respective pro rata shares of
such principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements. (c) If any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or
otherwise, obtain payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans that would result in such Lender receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of
its Revolving Credit Exposure and accrued interest and fees thereon than the proportion received by any other Lender with respect to its Revolving Credit Exposure, then the Lender receiving such greater proportion shall purchase (for cash at face
value) participations in the Revolving Credit Exposure of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by the Lenders ratably in accordance with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued
interest on their respective Revolving Credit Exposure; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the
purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this subsection shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of
this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Revolving Credit Exposure to
any assignee or participant, other than to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this subsection shall apply). The Borrower 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 the Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were a direct
creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such participation. (d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the
Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has
made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount or amounts due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such
payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Bank with interest thereon, for each day from
and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry
rules on interbank compensation (including the Overnight Foreign Currency Rate in the case of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency). - 60 -
Section 2.22 Letters of Credit. (a) During the Availability Period, the Issuing Bank, in reliance upon the agreements of the other Lenders pursuant to subsections
(d) and (e) of this Section, agrees to issue, at the request of the Borrower, Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars or in an Alternative Currency for the account of the Borrower (or any Restricted Subsidiary, provided the Borrower is
liable hereunder in respect of any such Letter of Credit (the Borrower hereby acknowledging that the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrowers
business derives substantial benefits from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries)) on the terms and conditions hereinafter set forth; provided that (i) each Letter of Credit shall expire on the earlier of (A) the date one
year after the date of issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension thereof, one year after such renewal or extension) and (B) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date;
(ii) each Letter of Credit shall be in a stated amount of the Dollar Equivalent of at least $10,000; (iii) the Borrower may not request any Letter of Credit if, after giving effect to such issuance, (A) the Dollar Equivalent of the
aggregate LC Exposure would exceed the LC Commitment or (B) the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of all Lenders would exceed the Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount; and (iv) the Borrower shall not request,
and the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation to issue, any Letter of Credit the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (x) to fund any activity or business of or with any Sanctioned Person or in any Sanctioned Countries, that,
at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions or (y) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement. Each Lender shall be deemed to, and hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agrees to, purchase from the Issuing Bank without recourse a participation in each Letter of Credit equal to such Lenders Pro Rata Share of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit on the date of issuance. Each
issuance of a Letter of Credit shall be deemed to utilize the Revolving Commitment of each Lender by an amount equal to the amount of such participation. (b) To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or any amendment, renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower
shall give the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent irrevocable written notice at least three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date (or such shorter period as the Issuing Bank may agree in a particular instance in its sole
discretion) of such issuance specifying the date (which shall be a Business Day) such Letter of Credit is to be issued (or amended, renewed or extended, as the case may be), the expiration date of such Letter of Credit, the amount and currency of
such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit. In addition to the satisfaction of the conditions in Article
III, the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or any amendment which increases the amount of such Letter of Credit) will be subject to the further conditions that such Letter of Credit shall be in such form and contain such terms as the Issuing
Bank shall approve and that the Borrower shall have executed and delivered any additional applications, agreements and instruments relating to such Letter of Credit as the Issuing Bank shall reasonably require; provided that in the event of
any conflict between such applications, agreements or instruments and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control. (c) At
least two (2) Business Days prior to the issuance of any Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank will confirm with the Administrative Agent (by telephone or in writing) that the Administrative Agent has received such notice, and, if not, the Issuing
Bank will provide the Administrative Agent with a copy thereof. Unless the Issuing Bank has received notice from the - 61 -
Administrative Agent, on or before the Business Day immediately preceding the date the Issuing Bank is to issue the requested Letter of Credit, directing the Issuing Bank not to issue the Letter
of Credit because such issuance is not then permitted hereunder because of the limitations set forth in subsection (a) of this Section or that one or more conditions specified in Article III are not then satisfied, then, subject to the
terms and conditions hereof, the Issuing Bank shall, on the requested date, issue such Letter of Credit in accordance with the Issuing Banks usual and customary business practices. (d) The Issuing Bank shall examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit promptly following its
receipt thereof. The Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such demand for payment and whether the Issuing Bank has made or will make a LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in
giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to such LC Disbursement. The Borrower shall be irrevocably and unconditionally obligated to reimburse the Issuing Bank for
any LC Disbursements paid by the Issuing Bank in respect of such drawing, without presentment, demand or other formalities of any kind. Such reimbursement shall be in Dollars, unless, in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative
Currency, (i) the Issuing Bank (at its option) shall have specified in such notice that it will require reimbursement in such Alternative Currency, or (ii) in the absence of any such requirement for reimbursement in such Alternative
Currency, the Borrower shall have notified the Issuing Bank promptly following receipt of the notice of drawing that the Borrower will reimburse the Issuing Bank in such Alternative Currency. In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars of a
drawing under a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, the applicable Issuing Bank shall notify the Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the drawing promptly following the determination thereof. If the Borrower shall
have received notice from the Issuing Bank on or prior to 11:00 a.m. on the date of payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, not later than 4:00 p.m. on such date of payment by the Issuing Bank, or, if the
Borrower shall have received notice later than 11:00 a.m. on the date of payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in Dollars, not later than 11:00 a.m. on the immediately following Business Day, or the Applicable Time on
the date of any payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit to be reimbursed in an Alternative Currency (each such date, an Honor Date), the Borrower shall reimburse the Issuing Bank through the Administrative Agent in an
amount equal to the amount of such drawing and in the applicable currency. In the event that (i) a drawing denominated in an Alternative Currency is to be reimbursed in Dollars and (ii) the Dollar amount paid by the Borrower, whether on or
after the Honor Date, shall not be adequate on the date of that payment to purchase in accordance with normal banking procedures a sum denominated in the Alternative Currency equal to the drawing, the Borrower agrees, as a separate and independent
obligation, to indemnify the Issuing Bank for the loss resulting from its inability on that date to purchase the Alternative Currency in the full amount of the drawing. If the Borrower fails to so reimburse the Issuing Bank by such time, the
Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Revolving Lender of the Honor Date and the amount of the unreimbursed drawing (expressed in Dollars in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent thereof in the case of a Letter of Credit denominated in
an Alternative Currency). In such event, the Borrower shall be deemed to have timely given a Notice of Revolving Borrowing to the Administrative Agent requesting the Lenders to make a Base Rate Borrowing on the date on which such drawing is honored
in an exact amount of the Dollar Equivalent due to the Issuing Bank; provided that for purposes solely of such Borrowing, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3.2 hereof shall not be applicable and the minimum amount and
multiples for Base Rate Borrowings specified in Section 2.3 hereof shall not be applicable. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of such Borrowing in accordance with Section 2.3, and each Lender shall make the
proceeds of its Base Rate Loan included in such Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent in Dollars for the account of the Issuing Bank in accordance with Section 2.6. The proceeds of such Borrowing shall be applied directly by
the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement. - 62 -
(e) If for any reason a Base Rate Borrowing may not be (as determined in the sole discretion
of the Administrative Agent), or is not, made in accordance with the foregoing provisions, then each Lender (other than the Issuing Bank) shall be obligated to fund the participation that such Lender purchased pursuant to subsection (a) of this
Section in an amount equal to its Pro Rata Share of such LC Disbursement on and as of the date which such Base Rate Borrowing should have occurred. Each Lenders obligation to fund its participation shall be absolute and unconditional and shall
not be affected by any circumstance, including, without limitation, (i) any set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such Lender or any other Person may have against the Issuing Bank or any other Person for any reason
whatsoever, (ii) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default or the termination of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments, (iii) any adverse change in the condition (financial or otherwise) of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries,
(iv) any breach of this Agreement by the Borrower or any other Lender, (v) any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or (vi) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the
foregoing. On the date that such participation is required to be funded, each Lender shall promptly transfer, in immediately available funds in Dollars, the amount of its participation to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Issuing Bank.
Whenever, at any time after the Issuing Bank has received from any such Lender the funds for its participation in a LC Disbursement, the Issuing Bank (or the Administrative Agent on its behalf) receives any payment on account thereof, the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, will distribute to such Lender its Pro Rata Share of such payment; provided that if such payment is required to be returned for any reason to the Borrower or to a trustee,
receiver, liquidator, custodian or similar official in any bankruptcy proceeding, such Lender will return to the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank any portion thereof previously distributed by the Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank to
it. (f) To the extent that any Lender shall fail to pay any amount required to be paid pursuant to subsection (d) or (e) of
this Section on the due date therefor, such Lender shall pay interest to the Issuing Bank (through the Administrative Agent) on such amount from such due date to the date such payment is made at a rate per annum equal to the Federal Funds
Rate; provided that if such Lender shall fail to make such payment to the Issuing Bank within three (3) Business Days of such due date, then, retroactively to the due date, such Lender shall be obligated to pay interest on such amount at
the Base Rate. (g) If at any time (i) other than as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Dollar Equivalent of
the aggregate LC Exposure of all Lenders exceeds the LC Commitment Amount, as reduced pursuant to Section 2.8 or otherwise, or (ii) solely as a result of fluctuations in currency exchange rates, the Dollar Equivalent of the
aggregate LC Exposure of all Lenders exceeds 105% of the LC Commitment Amount, as reduced pursuant to Section 2.8 or otherwise, then in each case the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize its reimbursement obligations with respect to all
Letters of Credit in an aggregate amount sufficient to reduce such LC Exposure as of such date of payment to an amount not to exceed 100% of the LC Commitment Amount then in effect. Additionally, if any Event of Default shall occur and be
continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower receives notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders demanding that its reimbursement obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit be Cash Collateralized pursuant to this
subsection, the Borrower shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the Lenders, an amount in cash equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the
aggregate LC Exposure of all Lenders as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid fees thereon; provided that such obligation to Cash Collateralize the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower with respect to the
- 63 -
Letters of Credit shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default
with respect to the Borrower described in Section 8.1(f). Any such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. The
Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. The Borrower agrees to execute any documents and/or certificates to effectuate the intent of this subsection. Other than
any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers risk and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest and
profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank for LC Disbursements for which it had not been reimbursed and, to the extent not
so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, with the consent of the Required Lenders, be applied to satisfy
other obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If the Borrower is required to Cash Collateralize its reimbursement obligations with respect to the Letters of Credit as a result of the occurrence of an Event of
Default, such cash collateral so posted (to the extent not so applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived. (h) Upon the request of any Lender, but no more frequently than quarterly, the Issuing Bank shall deliver (through the Administrative Agent)
to each Lender and the Borrower a report describing the aggregate Letters of Credit then outstanding. Upon the request of any Lender from time to time, the Issuing Bank shall deliver to such Lender any other information reasonably requested by such
Lender with respect to each Letter of Credit then outstanding. (i) The Borrowers obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements hereunder
shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of any of the following circumstances: (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or this Agreement; (ii) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right which the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the
Borrower may have at any time against a beneficiary or any transferee of any Letter of Credit (or any Persons or entities for whom any such beneficiary or transferee may be acting), any Lender (including the Issuing Bank) or any other Person,
whether in connection with this Agreement or the Letter of Credit or any document related hereto or thereto or any unrelated transaction; (iii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect
or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect; (iv) payment by the Issuing Bank under a Letter of
Credit against presentation of a draft or other document to the Issuing Bank that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; - 64 -
(v) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to
any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of set-off against, the Borrowers obligations hereunder; (vi) the existence of a Default or an Event of Default; or (vii) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Alternative Currency to the
Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender nor
any Related Party of any of the foregoing shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of
the circumstances referred to above), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a
drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse the Issuing Bank from liability to
the Borrower to the extent of any actual direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect (including claims for lost profits or other consequential damages), or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the
extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by the Issuing Banks failure to exercise due care when determining whether drafts or other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof.
The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Issuing Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have exercised due
care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented that appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a
Letter of Credit, the Issuing Bank may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and
make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit. (j) Unless
otherwise expressly agreed by the Issuing Bank and the Borrower when a Letter of Credit is issued and subject to applicable laws, (i) each standby Letter of Credit shall be governed by the International Standby Practices 1998
(ISP98) (or such later revision as may be published by the Institute of International Banking Law & Practice on any date any Letter of Credit may be issued), (ii) each documentary Letter of Credit shall be governed by the Uniform
Customs and Practices for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600 (or such later revision as may be published by the International Chamber of Commerce on any date any Letter of Credit may be
issued) and (iii) the Borrower shall specify the foregoing in each letter of credit application submitted for the issuance of a Letter of Credit. (k) Any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank hereunder upon 30 days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent,
the Lenders and the Borrower; provided that on or prior to the expiration of such 30-day period with respect to such resignation, the relevant Issuing Bank shall have identified a successor Issuing Bank reasonably acceptable to the Borrower willing
to accept its appointment as successor Issuing Bank, and the effectiveness of such resignation shall be conditioned upon such successor assuming the rights and duties of the resigning Issuing Bank. In the event of any such resignation as Issuing
Bank, the Borrower shall be entitled to appoint from among the Lenders a - 65 -
successor Issuing Bank hereunder; provided, however, that no failure by the Borrower to appoint any such successor shall affect the resignation of the resigning Issuing Bank except as expressly
provided above. The Borrower may terminate the appointment of any Issuing Bank as an Issuing Bank hereunder by providing a written notice thereof to such Issuing Bank, with a copy to the Administrative Agent. Any such termination shall
become effective upon the earlier of (i) such Issuing Bank acknowledging receipt of such notice and (ii) the third Business Day following the date of the delivery thereof; provided that no such termination shall become effective until and
unless the LC Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (or its Affiliates) shall have been reduced to zero. At the time any such resignation or termination shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees
accrued for the account of the resigning or terminated Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.14(c). Notwithstanding the effectiveness of any such resignation or termination, the resigning or terminated Issuing Bank shall remain a party
hereto and shall continue to have all the rights of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or termination, but shall not be required to issue any additional Letters of Credit.
Section 2.23 Incremental Facility. (a) The Borrower may at any time or from time to time after the
(b) (i) Any Incremental Facility
shall be ratably secured with the Loans, (ii) any Incremental Term Facility shall not mature earlier than the Maturity Date nor have amortization of greater than 5% of the original principal amount of such Incremental Term Facility per year
(except with respect to any Incremental Term Facility to the extent required for such Incremental Term Facility to be tax fungible with (i.e., to be treated as part of the same issue as) a previously issued Incremental Term Facility in accordance
with Treasury Regulation 1.1275-2(k)), (iii) the Applicable Margin, Applicable Percentage and the other terms and conditions applicable to any Incremental Revolving Facility shall be the same as those applicable to the Revolving Facility,
(iv) the Applicable Margin relating to any Incremental Term Facility shall be determined by the Borrower and the Lenders providing such Incremental Term Facility and (v) any Incremental Term Facility shall otherwise be on terms and
pursuant to documentation to be determined by the Borrower and the Persons willing to provide such Incremental Term Facility; provided that to the extent such terms and documentation are not consistent with the then
- 66 -
existing Facilities (other than with respect to pricing, amortization and maturity) they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent (it being agreed that Incremental Term
Facilities may contain customary mandatory prepayments, voting rights and prepayment premiums). Each notice from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant
Incremental Facility and the Lenders or other Persons willing to provide the Incremental Facility. The Incremental Facility may be provided by any existing Lender or by any Eligible Assignee selected by the Borrower (any such other financial
institution or fund being called an Additional Lender); provided that the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender, and the Issuing Bank shall have consented (not to be unreasonably withheld) to such Additional
Lenders providing such Incremental Facility if such consent would be required under Section 10.4 for an assignment of Loans to such Additional Lender. Commitments in respect of Incremental Facilities shall become Commitments under
this Agreement pursuant to an amendment (an Incremental Amendment) to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by the Borrower, each Lender agreeing to provide such Commitment, if any, each Additional
Lender, if any, and the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 10.2(b) hereof. The Incremental Amendment may, without need for the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as
may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.23. The effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction
on the date thereof (each, an Incremental Facility Closing Date) of each of the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 (it being understood that all references to the date of a Borrowing or the issuance, amendment,
renewal or extension of such Letter of Credit or similar language in such Section 3.2 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Incremental Amendment) and such other conditions, if any, as the parties thereto shall agree;
provided, however, that for an Incremental Facility that is requested in connection with the financing of a Limited Condition Acquisition, the effectiveness of any Incremental Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date
thereof of only such conditions precedent as the parties thereto shall agree. The Borrower will use the proceeds of the Incremental Facilities for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement. No Lender shall be obligated to provide any Incremental
Facility, unless it so agrees. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that, other than with respect to any Incremental Revolving Facility, the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere
in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant to this paragraph. Additionally, after giving effect to any Incremental Revolving Facility, each Lenders and each Additional Lenders, if any, Pro Rata Share of each
of the Revolving Commitments and the Revolving Loans shall equal such Lenders and such Additional Lenders Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Facility; provided
further, that in furtherance of the foregoing and on the Incremental Facility Closing Date, each Lender and each Additional Lender, if any, shall be deemed to have irrevocably sold, transferred, conveyed and assigned to each other Lender and
each other Additional Lender, if any (and without, for the avoidance of doubt, increasing or decreasing the aggregate Commitments of such Lender or such Additional Lender after giving effect to such Incremental Revolving Facility), such portion of
its Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans such that, after giving effect to such assignment, each Lender and each Additional Lender, if any, shall hold a Pro Rata Share of each of the Revolving Commitments and Revolving Loans equal to such
Lenders or such Additional Lenders Pro Rata Share of the Aggregate Revolving Commitments. Section 2.24 Mitigation
of Obligations. If any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to
Section 2.20, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or
affiliates, if, in the sole judgment of such Lender, such designation or assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable under - 67 -
Section 2.18 or Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be
disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with such designation or assignment. Section 2.25 Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.18, or if the
Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.20, (b) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (c) in connection with any proposed
amendment, modification, termination, waiver or consent with respect to any of the provisions hereof as contemplated by Section 10.2(b), the consent of Required Lenders shall have been obtained but the consent of one or more of such
other Lenders (each a Non-Consenting Lender) whose consent is required shall not have been obtained, (d) any Lender does not accept an Extension Offer, or (e) any Lender under a Refinanced Facility does not participate
in the applicable Replacement Facility, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to
the restrictions set forth in Section 10.4(b)), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Section 2.18 or 2.20, as applicable) and obligations under this Agreement to an
assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender) (a Replacement Lender); provided that (i) the Borrower shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal amount of all Loans owed to it, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it
hereunder from the assignee (in the case of such outstanding principal and accrued interest) and from the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts), (iii) in the case of a claim for compensation under Section 2.18 or payments
required to be made pursuant to Section 2.20, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments, and (iv) in the case of a Non-Consenting Lender, each Replacement Lender shall consent, at the time of such
assignment, to each matter in respect of which such terminated Lender was a Non-Consenting Lender. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the
circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Section 2.26 Defaulting
Lenders. (a) Cash Collateral. (i) At any time that there shall exist a Defaulting Lender, within two Business Days following the written request of the
Administrative Agent or the Issuing Bank (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender (determined after giving effect to
Section 2.26(b)(iv) and any Cash Collateral provided by such Defaulting Lender) in an amount not less than 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the Issuing Banks LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender. (ii) The Borrower, and to the extent provided by any Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender, hereby grants to the
Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Issuing Bank, and agrees to maintain, a first priority security interest in all such Cash Collateral as security for the Defaulting Lenders obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of
Credit, to be applied pursuant to clause (iii) below. If at any time the Administrative Agent determines that Cash Collateral is subject to any right or claim of any Person other than the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank as herein
- 68 -
provided, or that the total amount of such Cash Collateral is less than the minimum amount required pursuant to clause (i) above, the Borrower will, promptly upon demand by the
Administrative Agent, pay or provide to the Administrative Agent additional Cash Collateral in an amount sufficient to eliminate such deficiency (after giving effect to any Cash Collateral provided by the Defaulting Lender). (iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Cash Collateral provided under this
Section 2.26(a) or Section 2.26(b) in respect of Letters of Credit shall be applied to the satisfaction of the Defaulting Lenders obligation to fund participations in respect of Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements
(including, as to Cash Collateral provided by a Defaulting Lender, any interest accrued on such obligation) for which the Cash Collateral was so provided, prior to any other application of such property as may otherwise be provided for herein. (iv) Cash Collateral (or the appropriate portion thereof) provided to reduce any Issuing Banks LC Exposure shall no
longer be required to be held as Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.26(a) following (i) the elimination of the applicable LC Exposure (including by the termination of Defaulting Lender status of the applicable Lender), or
(ii) the determination by the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank that there exists excess Cash Collateral; provided that, subject to Section 2.26(b) through (d) the Person providing Cash Collateral and each
Issuing Bank may agree that Cash Collateral shall be held to support future anticipated LC Exposure or other obligations and provided further that to the extent that such Cash Collateral was provided by the Borrower, such Cash Collateral
shall remain subject to the security interest granted pursuant to the Loan Documents. (b) Defaulting Lender Adjustments.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law: (i) Such Defaulting Lenders right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this
Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of Required Lenders and in Section 10.2. (ii) Any
payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Article VIII or otherwise) or received by the
Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such
Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender hereunder; third, to Cash Collateralize the
Issuing Banks LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.26(a); fourth, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in
respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to be held in a
deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lenders potential future funding obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) Cash Collateralize the Issuing
- 69 -
Banks future LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with Section 2.26(a);
sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender against such
Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lenders breach of its obligations under this Agreement; seventh, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any
judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lenders breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as
otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its
appropriate share, and (y) such Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 were satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and
LC Disbursements owed to, all Non-Defaulting Lenders on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations
in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments under the applicable Facility without giving effect to sub-section (iv) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or
payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post Cash Collateral pursuant to this Section 2.26(b)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and
each Lender irrevocably consents hereto. (iii) (A) No Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any commitment
Fee pursuant to Section 2.14(b) for any period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender (and the Borrower shall not be required to pay any such fee that otherwise would have been required to have been paid to that Defaulting
Lender). (B) Each Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive letter of credit fees pursuant to Section 2.14(c) for any
period during which that Lender is a Defaulting Lender only to the extent allocable to that portion of its LC Exposure for which it has provided Cash Collateral pursuant to Section 2.26(a). (C) With respect to any commitment fee or letter of credit fee not required to be paid to any Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (A) or
(B) above, the Borrower shall (x) pay to each Non-Defaulting Lender that portion of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lenders participation in Letters of Credit or Swingline
Loans that has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (iv) below, (y) pay to each Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, as applicable, the amount of any such fee otherwise payable to such Defaulting Lender to the
extent allocable to the Issuing Banks LC Exposure or Swingline Lenders Swingline Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender, and (z) not be required to pay the remaining amount of any such fee. - 70 -
(iv) All or any part of such Defaulting Lenders participation in
Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares of the Revolving Commitments (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lenders Revolving
Commitment) but only to the extent that (x) the conditions set forth in Section 3.2 are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the
Borrower shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocation does not cause the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender
to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lenders Revolving Commitment. Subject to Section 10.18, no reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that
Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lenders increased exposure following such reallocation. (v) If the reallocation described in clause (iv) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall,
without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, (x) first, prepay Swingline Loans in an amount equal to the Swingline Lenders Swingline Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender and (y) second,
Cash Collateralize the Issuing Banks LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 2.26(a). (c) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and Issuing Bank agree in writing that a Lender
is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to
any Cash Collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase at par that portion of outstanding Loans of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Loans and
funded and unfunded participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans to be held pro rata by the Lenders in accordance with the applicable Commitments (without giving effect to Section 2.26(b)(iv)), whereupon such Lender will cease
to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that
except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lenders having been a
Defaulting Lender. (d) New Swingline Loans/Letters of Credit. So long as any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, (i) the Swingline
Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loans unless it is satisfied that it will have no Swingline Exposure after giving effect to such Swingline Loan and (ii) no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, extend, renew or increase
any Letter of Credit unless it is satisfied that it will have no LC Exposure after giving effect thereto. Section 2.27
Extension Offers. (a) The Borrower may, on one or more occasions, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, make one
or more offers (each, an Extension Offer) to all the Lenders of one or more Facilities (each Facility subject to such an Extension Offer, an Extension Request Facility), in each case to extend the final maturity
date of such Lenders respective Loans and commitments under such Facility to a later maturity date and to make one or more other Extension Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and
reasonably acceptable to - 71 -
the Borrower. Such Extension Offer shall set forth the terms and conditions of the requested Extension Permitted Amendments, the date on which the Extension Agreement (as defined below) is
requested to become effective (which date shall be acceptable to the Administrative Agent) and such other principal terms on which the Borrower proposes to enter into the Extension Agreement. Extension Permitted Amendments shall become effective
only with respect to the Loans and commitments of the Lenders of the Extension Request Facility that accept the applicable Extension Offer (such Lenders, the Accepting Lenders) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with
respect to such Lenders Loans and commitments of such Extension Request Facility. No Lender shall have any obligation to accept any such Extension Offer. (b) The Borrower, each Accepting Lender and the Administrative Agent shall execute and deliver an amendment agreement (the Extension
Agreement) and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Extension Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof and such amendment will be effective to amend this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents on the terms set forth therein without need for the consent of any other Lender; provided that no Extension Agreement may alter the rights of any Lender (other than the applicable Accepting Lenders) in any manner
that would not be permitted under Section 10.2 without the consent of such Lender unless such consent shall have been obtained. The effectiveness of any Extension Agreement shall be subject to such conditions precedent as the parties
thereto shall agree. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby agree that the minimum borrowing, pro rata borrowing and pro rata payment requirements contained elsewhere in this Agreement shall not apply to the transactions effected pursuant
to this paragraph. (c) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of an Extension Agreement. Each
Extension Agreement may, without the consent of any Lender other than the applicable Accepting Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative
Agent, to give effect to the provisions of this Section, including any amendments necessary to treat the applicable Loans and/or commitments of the Accepting Lenders as a new Facility of loans and/or commitments hereunder;
provided that, in the case of any Extension Offer relating to Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, except as otherwise agreed to by the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender, (i) the allocation of the participation exposure with
respect to any then-existing or subsequently issued or made Letter of Credit or Swingline Loan under the applicable Facility as between the commitments of such new Facility and the remaining Revolving Commitments under the applicable
Facility shall be made on a ratable basis as between the commitments of such new Facility and the remaining Revolving Commitments under such Facility and (ii) the Availability Period and the Maturity Date, as such terms are used in
reference to Letters of Credit or Swingline Loans, may not be extended without the prior written consent of the Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender, as applicable. Section 2.28 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum
due from the Borrower hereunder in the currency expressed to be payable herein (the specified currency) into another currency, the parties hereto agree, to the fullest extent that they may effectively do so, that the rate of
exchange used shall be that at which in accordance with normal banking procedures the Administrative Agent could purchase the specified currency with such other currency at the Administrative Agents main Atlanta office on the Business Day
preceding that on which final, non-appealable judgment is given. The obligations of the Borrower in respect of any sum due to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender hereunder shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency other
than the specified currency, be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender of any sum adjudged to be so due in such other currency the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or such Lender - 72 -
may in accordance with normal, reasonable banking procedures purchase the specified currency with such other currency. If the amount of the specified currency so purchased is less than the sum
originally due to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender in the specified currency, the Borrower agrees, to the fullest extent that it may effectively do so, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to
indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such Lender against such loss, and if the amount of the specified currency so purchased exceeds (a) the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in
the specified currency and (b) any amounts shared with other Lenders as a result of allocations of such excess as a disproportionate payment to such Lender under Section 2.21, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or such
Lender agrees to remit such excess to the Borrower. ARTICLE III. CONDITIONS PRECEDENT TO LOANS AND LETTERS OF CREDIT Section 3.1 Conditions to Effectiveness. The obligations of the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) to make Loans and
the obligation of the Issuing Bank to issue any Letters of Credit hereunder shall not become effective until the date on which each of the following conditions is satisfied (or waived in accordance with Section 10.2): (a) The Administrative Agent shall have received payment of all fees payable on or prior to the Closing Date and, to the extent invoiced at

account in the name of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Bank and the Lenders as cash collateral for the LC Exposure, such account to be administered in accordance with Section 2.22(g). All cash collateral for LC
Exposure shall be applied to satisfy drawings under the Letters of Credit as they occur; if any amount remains on deposit on cash collateral after all letters of credit have either been fully drawn or expired, such remaining amount shall be applied
to other Obligations, if any, in the order set forth above. - 104 -

proceeds of any sale of, or other realization upon, all or any part of the Collateral owned by such Guarantor) shall be applied to any Excluded Swap Obligation of such Guarantor and (b) Bank Product Obligations and Hedging Obligations shall be
excluded from the application described above if the Administrative Agent has not received written notice thereof, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the Bank Product Provider or the

therewith until such time and except for so long as the Administrative Agent may agree at the request of the Required Lenders to act for the Issuing Bank with respect thereto; provided that the Issuing Bank shall have all the benefits and
immunities (i) provided to the Administrative Agent in this Article with respect to any acts taken or omissions suffered by the Issuing Bank in connection with Letters of Credit issued by it or proposed to be issued by it and the application
and agreements for letters of credit pertaining to the Letters of Credit as fully as if the term Administrative Agent as used in this Article included the Issuing Bank with respect to such acts or omissions and (ii) as additionally
provided in this Agreement with respect to the Issuing Bank. (c) It is understood and agreed that the use of the term agent
herein or in any other Loan Document (or any similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead
such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties. - 105 -
Section 9.2 Nature of Duties of the Administrative Agent. The
Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (a) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject
to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing; (b) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary
powers, except those discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated by the Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be
necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.2), provided that the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative
Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Debtor Relief Law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification
or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Debtor Relief Law; and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the
failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries that is communicated to or obtained by the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any
action taken or not taken by it, its sub-agents or its attorneys-in-fact with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in
Section 10.2) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence
or misconduct of any sub-agents or attorneys-in-fact except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the
selection of such sub-agents. The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof (which notice shall include an express reference to such event being a
Default or Event of Default hereunder) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or any Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any
statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the
performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements, or other terms and conditions set forth in any Loan Document, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument
or document, or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article III or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent. The Administrative
Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower) concerning all matters pertaining to such duties. Section 9.3 Lack of Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Each of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank
acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to
enter into this Agreement. Each of the Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Issuing Bank also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any other Lender and based on such
documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking any action under or based on this Agreement, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder
or thereunder, and to make such investigations as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties. Each Lender represents and warrants
that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility and (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this
- 106 -
Agreement as a Lender for the purpose of making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and providing other facilities set forth herein as may be applicable to such Lender, and not for the purpose
of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument, and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing. Each Lender represents and warrants that it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to
make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial
loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Section 9.4 Certain Rights of the Administrative Agent. If the Administrative Agent shall request instructions from the
Required Lenders with respect to any action or actions (including the failure to act) in connection with this Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to refrain from such act or taking such act unless and until it shall have received
instructions from such Lenders, and the Administrative Agent shall not incur liability to any Person by reason of so refraining. Without limiting the foregoing, no Lender shall have any right of action whatsoever against the Administrative Agent as
a result of the Administrative Agent acting or refraining from acting hereunder in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders where required by the terms of this Agreement. Section 9.5 Reliance by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not
incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed,
sent or made by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to be made by the proper Person and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The
Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including counsel for the Borrower), independent public accountants and other experts selected by it and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice
of such counsel, accountants or experts. Section 9.6 The Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. The bank
serving as the Administrative Agent shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and any other Loan Document in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise or refrain from exercising the same as though it were not the
Administrative Agent; and the terms Lenders, Required Lenders, and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity. The bank acting as the
Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of the Borrower as if it were not the Administrative Agent hereunder. Section 9.7 Successor Administrative Agent. (a) The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and the Borrower (or, if a
successor Administrative Agent has been appointed in accordance with the terms hereof prior to the end of such 30-day period, such shorter period of time). Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint a successor
Administrative Agent, subject to approval by the Borrower provided that no Event of Default shall exist at such time. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed, and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after
the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a commercial bank organized under the laws of the United
States or any state thereof or a bank which maintains an office in the United States. Any resignation by the Administrative - 107 -
Agent pursuant to this Section shall also constitute its resignation as an Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successors appointment as Administrative Agent
hereunder: (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender; (ii) the retiring Issuing Bank and Swingline Lender shall be
discharged from all of their respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents (other than its confidentiality obligations under Section 10.11); and (iii) the successor Issuing Bank shall issue letters of
credit in substitution for the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangement satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Bank to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Bank with respect
to such Letters of Credit. (b) Upon the acceptance of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such
successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent, and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and
obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If, within 60 days after written notice is given of the retiring Administrative Agents resignation under this Section, no successor Administrative Agent shall have been appointed
and shall have accepted such appointment, then on such 60th day (i) the retiring Administrative Agents resignation shall become effective, (ii) the retiring Administrative Agent shall thereupon be discharged from its duties and
obligations under the Loan Documents (other than its confidentiality obligations under Section 10.11) and (iii) the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all duties of the retiring Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents
until such time as the Borrower and the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided above (with the approval of the Borrower if so required pursuant to the terms above). After any retiring Administrative Agents
resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent and its representatives and agents in respect of any actions taken or not taken by any of them while it was serving
as the Administrative Agent. Section 9.8 Withholding Tax. To the extent required by any applicable law, the
Administrative Agent may withhold from any interest payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding tax. If the Internal Revenue Service or any authority of the United States or any other jurisdiction asserts a claim that
the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender (because the appropriate form was not delivered or was not properly executed, or because such Lender failed to notify the Administrative
Agent of a change in circumstances that rendered the exemption from, or reduction of, withholding tax ineffective, or for any other reason), such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (to the extent that the Administrative Agent has not
already been reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including penalties and interest, together
with all expenses incurred, including legal expenses, allocated staff costs and any out of pocket expenses. Section 9.9 The
Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. (a) In case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation,
bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any Revolving Credit Exposure shall then be due
and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise: - 108 -
(i) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and
interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans or Revolving Credit Exposure and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the
Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel and all other amounts due
the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent under Section 10.3) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and (ii) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same.
(b) Any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is
hereby authorized by each Lender and the Issuing Bank to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, to pay to the
Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Administrative Agent under Section 10.3. Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any
Lender or the Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such
proceeding. Section 9.10 Authorization to Execute Other Loan Documents. Each Lender hereby authorizes the
Administrative Agent to execute on behalf of all Lenders all Loan Documents (including, without limitation, the Security Documents and any subordination agreements or intercreditor agreements contemplated by, or expressly permitted by, this
Agreement) other than this Agreement. Section 9.11 Collateral and Guaranty Matters. The Lenders irrevocably authorize
the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion: (a) to release any Lien on any property granted to or held by the
Administrative Agent under any Loan Document (i) upon the termination of all Commitments, the Cash Collateralization of all reimbursement obligations with respect to Letters of Credit in an amount equal to 105% of the Dollar Equivalent of the
aggregate LC Exposure of all Lenders, and the payment in full of all Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations as to which no claim has been made by the Person entitled thereto and Cash Collateralized reimbursement obligations),
(ii) to the extent necessary or appropriate to permit consummation of any transaction not prohibited by any Loan Document, or (iii) if approved, authorized or ratified in writing in accordance with Section 10.2; (b) to release any Loan Party from its obligations under the applicable Security Documents if such Person ceases to be a Subsidiary as a
result of a transaction permitted hereunder or in connection with the change in status of any Subsidiary which has become an Excluded Subsidiary; - 109 -
(c) to subordinate any Lien on any property granted to or held by the Administrative Agent
under any Security Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by Section 7.2(g); and (d) to enter
into any Market Intercreditor Agreements or arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in order to effectuate the intent of Section 7.1(k). Upon request by the Administrative Agent at any time, the Required Lenders will confirm in writing the Administrative Agents authority to release its
interest in particular types or items of property, to release any Loan Party from its obligations under the applicable Security Documents pursuant to this Section, or to enter into a Market Intercreditor Agreement. In each case as specified in this
Section, at the Borrowers expense, the Administrative Agent is authorized to and shall execute and deliver to the applicable Loan Party such documents as such Loan Party may reasonably request to evidence the release of such item of Collateral
from the Liens granted under the applicable Security Documents, or to release such Loan Party from its obligations under the applicable Security Documents, in each case in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents and this Section. Section 9.12 Co- Section 9.13 Right to Realize on Collateral and Enforce Guarantee. Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the
contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby agree that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce the Security Documents, it being understood
and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies hereunder and under the Security Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent, and (ii) in the event of a foreclosure by the Administrative Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant
to a public or private sale or other disposition, the Administrative Agent or any Lender may be the purchaser or licensor of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition and the Administrative Agent, as agent for and
representative of the Lenders (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing), shall be entitled, for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or
payment of the purchase price for all or any portion of the Collateral sold at any such public sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any collateral payable by the Administrative Agent at such
sale or other disposition. Section 9.14 Secured Bank Product Obligations and Hedging Obligations. No Bank Product
Provider or Lender-Related Hedge Provider that obtains the benefits of Section 8.2, the Security Documents or any Collateral by virtue of the provisions hereof or of any other Loan Document shall have any right to notice of any action or
to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only
to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been
made with respect to, Bank Product Obligations and Hedging Obligations unless the Administrative Agent has received written notice of such Obligations, together with such supporting documentation as the Administrative Agent may request, from the
applicable Bank Product Provider or Lender-Related Hedge Provider, as the case may be. - 110 -
Section 9.15 Erroneous Payments. (a) If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender,
Issuing Bank or Secured Party (any such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other recipient, a Payment Recipient) that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice
under Section 9.15(b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient
(whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually
and collectively, an Erroneous Payment) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by
the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment
Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the
currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent
in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any
Payment Recipient under this Section 9.15(a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error. (b) Without limiting
Section 9.15(a), each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether
received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified
in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or
repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or other such recipient, otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in
part) in each case: (i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error
shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) an error has been made (in the case of immediately preceding clause (z)), in each case, with respect to such
payment, prepayment or repayment; and (ii) such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other
recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details
thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9.15(b). - 111 -
(c) Each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to
set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party from
any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under immediately preceding Section 9.15(a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. (d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand
therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with immediately preceding Section 9.15(a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received
such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on such Lenders or Issuing Banks behalf, as applicable) (such unrecovered amount, an Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency), upon the Administrative Agents notice to such
Lender or Issuing Lender at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the Erroneous
Payment Impacted Class) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted
Class, the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby deemed to execute and deliver an
Assignment and Assumption (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants) with respect to such
Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any promissory notes evidencing such Loans to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed
to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment
Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its
obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank, and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its
ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds
of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights,
remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or
Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that (a) except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof)
acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the
applicable Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency and (b) the Administrative Agent is authorized to set off, net and apply any
- 112 -
and all amounts at any time owing to such Payment Recipient under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Payment Recipient from any source,
against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this Section 9.15 or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement. (e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by
the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment that is, comprised of funds received by the Administrative Agent from the Borrower
or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment. (f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment
Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative
Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on discharge for value or any similar doctrine. (g) Each partys obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 9.15 shall survive the resignation or replacement of
the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof) under
any Loan Document. (h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, this Section 9.15 will
not increase or otherwise alter the Loan Parties obligations or liabilities under the Loan Documents. ARTICLE X. MISCELLANEOUS Section 10.1 Notices. (a) Written Notices. (i) Except in the case of notices and other communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone, all notices

confirmation hereunder. (ii) Any agreement of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender herein to receive
certain notices by telephone or facsimile is solely for the convenience and at the request of the Borrower. The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and each Lender shall be entitled to rely on the authority of any Person purporting to be a Person
authorized by the Borrower to give such notice and the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders shall not have any liability to the Borrower or other Person on account of any action taken or not taken by the Administrative Agent, the
Issuing Bank or any Lender in reliance upon such telephonic or facsimile notice. The obligation of the Borrower to repay the Loans and all other Obligations hereunder shall not be affected in any way or to any extent by any failure of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to receive written confirmation of any telephonic or facsimile notice or the receipt by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender of a confirmation which is at variance with the
terms understood by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and such Lender to be contained in any such telephonic or facsimile notice. (b) Electronic Communications. (i) Notices and other communications to the Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereunder may be delivered or furnished by electronic
communication (including e-mail and Internet or intranet websites) pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided that the foregoing shall not apply to notices to any Lender or the Issuing Bank if such Lender or such
Issuing Bank, as applicable, has notified the Administrative Agent that it is incapable of receiving, or is unwilling to receive, notices by electronic communication. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept
notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided that approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. (ii) Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (A) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address

senders receipt of an acknowledgement from the intended recipient (such as by the return receipt requested function, as available, return e-mail or other written
acknowledgement) and (B) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (A) of
notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor; provided that, in the case of clauses (A) and (B) above, if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal
business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next Business Day for the recipient. (iii) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make Communications (as defined
below) available to the Issuing Bank and the other Lenders by posting the Communications on Debt Domain, Intralinks, Syndtrak, ClearPar or a substantially similar electronic system. (iv) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED AS IS AND AS AVAILABLE. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS
RELATED PARTIES WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS (AS DEFINED BELOW) AND FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS. NO
WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NONINFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE PLATFORM. In no event shall the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties have any liability to any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries, any
Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person or entity for losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses of any kind, including, without limitation, direct or indirect, special, incidental or consequential damages, losses or expenses, whether or
not based on strict liability (whether in tort, contract or otherwise), arising out of any Loan Partys or the Administrative Agents transmission of Borrower Materials through the Internet, except to the extent that such losses, claims,
damages, liabilities or expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or such Related Party;
provided, however, that in no event shall the Administrative Agent or any Related Party have any liability to any Loan Party or any of their respective Subsidiaries, any Lender, any Issuing Bank or any other Person for indirect,
special, incidental, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of any Loan Partys or the Administrative Agents transmission of Communications. Communications means,
collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative
Agent, any Lender or the Issuing Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through the Platform. - 116 -
(c)
Telephonic Notices. In the case of any notices or other
communications expressly permitted hereunder to be given by telephone, such notice shall be made to the applicable telephone number set forth on Schedule 10.1. (d)
Loan Documents may be transmitted and/or signed by facsimile or other
electronic communication. The effectiveness of any such documents and signatures shall, subject to applicable Requirements of Law, have the same force and effect as manually signed originals and shall be binding on all Loan Parties, the Agents and
the Lenders. Section 10.2 Waiver; Amendments. (a) No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any
other Loan Document, and no course of dealing between the Borrower and the Administrative Agent or any Lender, shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or
discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power hereunder or thereunder. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the
Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies provided by law. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by the
Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by subsection (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or the issuance of a Letter of Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default or Event of Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or the
Issuing Bank may have had notice or knowledge of such Default or Event of Default at the time. (b) Except as otherwise provided in this
Agreement, including, without limitation, as provided in Section 2.16 with respect to the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement or Benchmark Conforming Changes (as set forth therein) and Section 2.23, no amendment or
waiver of any provision of this Agreement or of the other Loan Documents (other than the Fee Letter or any other fee letters entered into after the date hereof with the Administrative Agent), nor consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom,
shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Borrower and the Required Lenders, or the Borrower and the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders, and then such amendment, waiver or
consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which given; provided that, no amendment, waiver or consent shall: (i) increase the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender; (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce any fees or
other amounts payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby (except (x) in connection with the waiver of applicability of any post-default increase in interest rates (which waiver shall be effective with the
consent of the Required Lenders) and (y) that any amendment or modification of defined terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes of this clause (ii));
- 117 -
(iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or
interest on, any Loan or LC Disbursement or any fees or other amounts hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of any Commitment, without the written consent
of each Lender affected thereby; (iv) (A) change Section 2.21(b) or (c) in a manner that
would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender or (B) change Section 8.2 in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments or the order of application required
thereby without the written consent of each Lender affected thereby; (v) change any of the provisions of this subsection
(b) or the definition of Required Lenders or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent
hereunder, without the consent of each Lender affected thereby; (vi) release all or substantially all of the Guarantors,
or limit the liability of such Guarantors, under any guaranty agreement guaranteeing any of the Obligations, without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly provided in Section 9.11); (vii) release all or substantially all Collateral securing any of the Obligations, without the written consent of each Lender
(except as expressly provided in Section 9.11); (viii) release the Borrower from all or substantially all of
its obligations under the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement without the written consent of each Lender (except as expressly provided in Section 9.11); (ix) except as expressly permitted herein or in any other Loan Document, subordinate the Obligations hereunder or the Liens
granted under the Security Documents, to any other Indebtedness or Lien, as the case may be, without the written consent of each Lender; provided,
further, that no such amendment, waiver or consent shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights, duties or obligations of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank without the prior written consent of such
Person. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any
amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended, and amounts payable to such Lender hereunder may not be permanently reduced, without the consent of such Lender (other than
reductions in fees and interest in which such reduction does not disproportionately affect such Lender). Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, this Agreement may be amended and restated without the consent of any Lender (but
with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated), the Commitments of such Lender shall have
terminated (but such Lender shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 and 10.3), such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and such Lender shall have been
paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement. - 118 -
Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended or amended and restated
(x) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of all or a portion of the Loans outstanding under an Incremental
Term Facility or any prior Replacement Facility (Refinanced Term Loans) with a replacement term loan tranche hereunder which shall be Loans hereunder (Replacement Term Loans); provided that (i) the
aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans plus fees and expenses in connection therewith, (ii) the weighted average life to maturity of such
Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the weighted average life to maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as
a result of prepayment of the Refinanced Term Loans) and (iii) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to or, taken as a whole, less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term
Loans, than those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest final maturity of any Loans in effect immediately prior to such refinancing
and (y) with the written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders providing the relevant Replacement Revolving Facility (as defined below) to permit the refinancing of any Refinanced Term Loans or the Revolving Facility
(Refinanced Revolving Facility and collectively with Refinanced Term Loans, Refinanced Facilities) with a replacement revolving facility hereunder (Replacement Revolving Facility and
collectively with Replacement Term Loans, Replacement Facilities); provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Revolving Facility shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such
Refinanced Term Loans or Aggregate Revolving Commitment Amount, as applicable, plus fees and expenses in connection therewith, (ii) the final maturity date of such Replacement Revolving Facility shall be no earlier than the final maturity date
of the Refinanced Term Loans or the Maturity Date, as applicable, (iii) if refinancing or replacing Refinanced Term Loans, the Replacement Revolving Facility shall be fully drawn on the closing date thereof and the proceeds of the Replacement
Revolving Facility shall be used to repay the outstanding Refinanced Term Loans, (iv) if refinancing or replacing a Refinanced Revolving Facility, the Replacement Revolving Facility shall refinance or replace the entire Refinanced Revolving
Facility and shall be drawn on the closing date thereof to the extent necessary to repay, and the proceeds of such draw under the Replacement Revolving Facility shall be used to the extent necessary to repay, the outstanding amounts under the
Refinanced Revolving Facility and (v) the Replacement Revolving Facility shall be on terms and pursuant to documentation to be determined by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Persons willing to provide such Replacement Revolving
Facility; provided that to the extent such terms and documentation are not consistent with the applicable Refinanced Facility (other than with respect to pricing), they shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement, including this Section 10.2, and the other Loan Documents may be
amended (or amended and restated) pursuant to Section 2.23 to add any Incremental Facility to this Agreement and (a) to permit the extensions of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in
respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits of this Agreement (including the rights of the lenders under Incremental Facility to share ratably with the Revolving Facility in prepayments pursuant to Sections 2.11 and 2.12), the
Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof, (b) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facility in any determination of the Required
Lenders and (c) to amend other provision of the Loan Documents so that the Incremental Facility is appropriately incorporated (including this Section 10.2). - 119 -
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 10.2, the
Administrative Agent and the Borrower, in their sole discretion, may collectively amend, modify or supplement any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document to (i) amend, modify or supplement such provision or cure any ambiguity,
omission, mistake, error, defect or inconsistency, so long as such amendment, modification or supplement does not directly and adversely affect the obligations of any Lender or Issuing Bank and (ii) permit additional Domestic Subsidiaries
(excluding any U.S. Pass Through Foreign Holdcos) of the Borrower to guarantee the Obligations and/or provide Collateral therefor. Such amendments shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to any Loan Document.
Upon the request of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall release any Guarantor from the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement if such Guarantor ceases to qualify as a Guarantor (in accordance with the definition of such term as provided
herein). Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended in accordance with Section 2.27 (including as
contemplated by an Extension Agreement in accordance with Section 2.27 evidencing Extension Permitted Amendments). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Schedule 1.1(a) may be unilaterally amended by the Borrower to remove entries therefrom (but not, for
the avoidance of doubt, to add entries thereto). Section 10.3 Expenses; Indemnification. (a) The Borrower shall pay (i) all reasonable, out-of-pocket costs and expenses of the Administrative Agent and its Affiliates (but
limited, in the case of legal fees, charges, disbursements and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such Persons taken as a whole and, if
necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to all such Persons, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, (x) one additional counsel to all affected Persons, taken as a whole, and
(y) one additional local counsel to all affected Persons, taken as a whole, in each relevant jurisdiction), in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, the preparation and administration of the Loan

Bank in connection with the issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or any demand for payment thereunder and (iii) all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender (but limited, in the case of legal fees, charges, disbursements and expenses, to the actual reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all such
Persons taken as a whole and, if necessary, of one local counsel in any relevant jurisdiction to all such Persons, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, (x) one additional counsel to all
affected Persons, taken as a whole, and (y) one additional local counsel to all affected Persons, taken as a whole, in each relevant jurisdiction) in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement,
including its rights under this Section, or in connection with the Loans made or any Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring or negotiations in respect of such Loans or
Letters of Credit. (b) The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent (and any sub-agent thereof), each Lender and the Issuing
Bank, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each - 120 -
such Person being called an Indemnitee) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (but limited, in
the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of outside counsel to all Indemnitees taken as a whole and, if reasonably necessary, one local counsel in any
relevant jurisdiction to all Indemnitees, taken as a whole and, solely in the case of an actual or potential conflict of interest, (x) one additional counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and (y) one additional local
counsel to all affected Indemnitees, taken as a whole, in each relevant jurisdiction) incurred by any Indemnitee or asserted against any Indemnitee by any third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party arising out of, in connection with, or
as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or thereunder
or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, (ii) any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use or proposed use of the proceeds therefrom (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a
Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit), (iii) any actual or alleged presence of Materials of Environmental Concern on any Properties, or any
Environmental Liability related in any way to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any
other theory, whether brought by a third party or by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent
that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and non-appealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee,
(y) a claim brought by the Borrower or any other Loan Party against an Indemnitee for a material breach of such Indemnitees obligations hereunder or under any other Loan Document, or (z) any dispute solely among any Indemnitees, the
Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Related Parties (other than claims against Administrative Agent, the Arrangers, or any Person or entity acting in a similar capacity acting pursuant to this Agreement or in its capacity as such) to
the extent such disputes did not arise from any act or omission of the Borrower or its Affiliates. Subsection (b) hereof shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc. arising from any
non-Tax claim. (c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank or the Swingline Lender under subsection (a) or (b) hereof, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be, such Lenders pro rata share (in
accordance with its respective Revolving Commitment (or Revolving Credit Exposure, as applicable) determined as of the time that the unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed
expense or indemnified payment, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender in its capacity as such. (d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no party to this Agreement shall assert, and each party to this Agreement hereby waives, any
claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to actual or direct damages) arising out of, in connection with or as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan Document
or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated therein, any Loan or any Letter of Credit or the use of proceeds thereof; provided that nothing in this clause (d) shall relieve the Borrower of any
obligation it may have to indemnify any Indemnitee against special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages asserted against such Indemnitee by a third party. - 121 -
(e) The Borrower shall not, without the prior written consent of the applicable Indemnitee,
effect any settlement of any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation, arbitration or proceeding in respect of which such Indemnitee is a party and indemnity has been sought under this Section by such Indemnitee, unless such settlement
(i) includes an unconditional release of such Indemnitee in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to such Indemnitee from all liability on claims that are the subject matter of such indemnity and (ii) does not include any statement as
to or any admission of fault, culpability or a failure to act by or on behalf of any Indemnitee or any injunctive relief or other non-monetary remedy. (f) All amounts due under this Section shall be payable not later than ten (10) days after a reasonably detailed written demand therefor.
Section 10.4 Successors and Assigns. (a) The provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby, except that the Borrower may not assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and each Lender, and no Lender may assign or otherwise
transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder except (i) to an assignee in accordance with the provisions of subsection (b) of this Section, (ii) by way of participation in accordance with the provisions of subsection
(d) of this Section or (iii) by way of pledge or assignment of a security interest subject to the restrictions of subsection (f) of this Section (and any other attempted assignment or transfer by any party hereto shall be null and
void). Nothing in this Agreement, expressed or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereby, Participants to the extent provided in subsection
(d) of this Section and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders) any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under or by reason of this Agreement. (b) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more assignees all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including
all or a portion of its Commitments, Loans and other Revolving Credit Exposure at the time owing to it); provided that any such assignment shall be subject to the following conditions: (i) Minimum Amounts. (A) in the case of an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lenders Commitments, Loans and other
Revolving Credit Exposure at the time owing to it or in the case of an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate of a Lender or an Approved Fund, no minimum amount need be assigned; and (B) in any case not described in subsection (b)(i)(A) of this Section, the aggregate amount of the Commitment (which for this
purpose includes Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure outstanding thereunder) or, if the applicable Commitment is not then in effect, the principal outstanding balance of the Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure of the assigning Lender subject to each
such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with - 122 -
respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent or, if Trade Date is specified in the Assignment and Acceptance, as of the Trade Date) shall not be less than
$5,000,000 with respect to Revolving Loans and in minimum increments of $1,000,000, unless each of the Administrative Agent and, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Borrower otherwise consents (each such consent not to
be unreasonably withheld or delayed). (ii) Proportionate Amounts. Each partial assignment shall be made as an
assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement with respect to the Loans, other Revolving Credit Exposure or the Commitments assigned. (iii) Required Consents. No consent shall be required for any assignment except to the extent required by subsection
(b)(i)(B) of this Section and, in addition: (A) the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably
withheld or delayed) shall be required unless (x) an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing at the time of such assignment or (y) such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender; (B) the consent of the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required
unless such assignment is to a Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or an Approved Fund of such Lender; and (C) the
consent of the Issuing Bank (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment that increases the obligation of the assignee to participate in exposure under one or more Letters of Credit (whether or not
then outstanding), and the consent of the Swingline Lender (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required for any assignment in respect of the Revolving Commitments. (iv) Assignment and Acceptance. The parties to each assignment shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a duly
executed Assignment and Acceptance, (B) a processing and recordation fee of $3,500, (C) an Administrative Questionnaire unless the assignee is already a Lender and (D) the documents required under Section 2.20(e). (v) No Assignment to the certain Persons. No such assignment shall be made to (A) the Borrower or any of the
Borrowers Affiliates or Subsidiaries, (B) to any Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B) or (C) any
Disqualified Assignee. (vi) No Assignment to Natural Persons. No such assignment shall be made to a natural person.
(vii) Certain Additional Payments. 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 the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative
- 123 -
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 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, the Issuing Bank, the Swingline Lender and each other Lender hereunder (and interest
accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full pro rata share of all Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swingline 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. Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of
this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement 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 Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto) but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19,
2.20 and 10.3 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; 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 such Lenders 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 subsection 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 subsection (d) of this Section. If the consent of the Borrower to an
assignment is required hereunder (including a consent to an assignment which does not meet the minimum assignment thresholds specified above), the Borrower shall be deemed to have given its consent unless it shall object thereto by written notice to
the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after notice thereof has actually been delivered by the assigning Lender (through the Administrative Agent) to the Borrower. (c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower,
shall maintain at one of its offices in Charlotte, North Carolina a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount
(and stated interest) of the Loans and Revolving Credit Exposure owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the Register). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the
Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Information contained in the Register with
respect to any Lender shall be available for inspection by such Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice; information contained in the Register shall also be available for inspection by the Borrower at any
reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice. In establishing and maintaining the Register, the Administrative Agent shall serve as the Borrowers agent solely for tax purposes and solely with respect to the actions
described in this Section, and the Borrower hereby agrees that, to the extent Truist Bank serves in such capacity, Truist Bank and its officers, directors, employees, agents, sub-agents and affiliates shall
constitute Indemnitees. - 124 -
(d) Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower, the
Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person, the Borrower, any of the Borrowers Affiliates or Subsidiaries, or a Disqualified Assignee) (each, a
Participant) in all or a portion of such Lenders rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and/or the Loans owing to it); provided that (i) such Lenders
obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing
Bank, the Swingline Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lenders rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right
to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree
to any amendment, modification or waiver with respect to the following to the extent affecting such Participant: (i) increase the Commitment of such Lender; (ii) reduce the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate
of interest thereon, or reduce any fees payable hereunder; (iii) postpone the date fixed for any payment of any principal of, or interest on, any Loan or LC Disbursement or any fees hereunder or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such
payment, or postpone the scheduled date for the termination or reduction of any Commitment; (iv) change Section 2.21(b) or (c) in a manner that would alter the pro rata sharing of payments required thereby;
(v) change any of the provisions of Section 10.2(b) or the definition of Required Lenders or any other provision hereof specifying the number or percentage of Lenders which are required to waive, amend or modify any
rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder; (vi) release all or substantially all of the guarantors, or limit the liability of such guarantors, under any guaranty agreement guaranteeing any of the Obligations
(except as expressly provided in Section 9.11); or (vii) release all or substantially all collateral (if any) securing any of the Obligations (except as expressly provided in Section 9.11). Subject to subsection
(e) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.18, 2.19, and 2.20 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment
pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.24 as though it were a Lender. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the
benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 2.21 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent
of the Borrower, maintain a register in the United States on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participants interest in the Loans or other obligations under the
Loan Documents (the Participant Register); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating
to a Participants interest in any commitments, loans, letters of credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such commitment, loan, letter of
credit or other obligation is in registered form under the Code or United States Treasury Regulations, including, without limitation, 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. - 125 -
(e) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections
2.18 and 2.20 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers prior
written consent. A Participant shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless the Borrower is notified of the participation sold to such Participant and such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply
with Section 2.20(e) and (f) as though it were a Lender. (f) Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a
