WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement, the Borrower may establish Incremental Commitments by, among other things, entering into one or more Incremental Assumption Agreements with Incremental Lenders; and
WHEREAS, the Borrower has notified the Agent that, pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.15 of the Credit Agreement, it is requesting the 2019 Incremental Commitment (as defined below), under which the Borrower intends to incur Incremental Term Loans in an aggregate principal amount of $190,000,000 (the “2019 Incremental Term Loans”) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and agreements, provisions and covenants herein contained, the parties hereto hereby agree as follows:
The 2019 Incremental Lender party hereto hereby agrees to make, on the 2019 Incremental Term Loan Borrowing Date (as defined below), Incremental Term Loans in an amount equal to its Incremental Term Loan Commitment (the “2019 Incremental Commitment”), as set forth on Schedule A annexed hereto, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth below.
The 2019 Incremental Lender hereby (i) confirms that it has received a copy of the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents and the schedules and exhibits attached thereto, together with copies of the financial statements referred to therein and such other documents and information as it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement; (ii) agrees that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agent, any other Incremental Lender or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under the Credit Agreement; (iii) appoints and authorizes the Agent to take such action as agent on its behalf and to exercise such powers under the Credit Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agent, as the case may be, by the terms thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto; and (iv) agrees that it will perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of the Credit Agreement are required to be performed by it as an Incremental Lender.
The 2019 Incremental Lender hereby agrees to make available its 2019 Incremental Commitment on the following terms and conditions:
1.2019 Incremental Term Loans: Upon the funding of the 2019 Incremental Term Loans (such date, the “2019 Term Loan Increase Effective Date”), the 2019 Incremental Term Loans shall constitute an increase to and a part of the “Initial Term Loans”, shall be designated as part of the same Class of Term Loans as the Initial Term Loans, and the 2019 Incremental Lender (and each of its successors and permitted assigns with respect to the 2019 Incremental Term Loans) will be a “Term Loan Lender”, as each is defined in the Credit Agreement. After the execution of this Agreement by the parties hereto, each reference in the Credit Agreement to “Initial Term Loans”, and each reference in the Credit Agreement to “Term Loan Lender” shall include, respectively, the 2019 Incremental Term Loans and the 2019 Incremental Lender (and each of its successors and permitted assigns with respect to the 2019 Incremental Term Loans). The Agent shall take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that the 2019 Incremental Term Loans are included in each repayment of Initial Term Loans on a pro rata basis. In furtherance of the foregoing, on the 2019 Term Loan Increase Effective Date, there shall commence an initial Interest Period with respect to the 2019 Incremental Term Loans, which Interest Period shall end on the last day of the Interest Period then-applicable to the Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to the 2019 Term Loan Increase Effective Date.

2.Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margin for Base Rate Loans or for Eurodollar Loans, as applicable, for each 2019 Incremental Term Loan shall mean, as of any date of determination, the applicable percentage per annum as set forth in the Credit Agreement for the Initial Term Loans.
3.Principal Payments. The principal amount of the 2019 Incremental Term Loans shall be repaid, together with the rest of the Initial Term Loan, in Dollars, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders then holding the 2019 Incremental Term Loans, on the last Business Day of each December, March, June and September, commencing December 31, 2019, in a principal amount equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of all 2019 Incremental Term Loan made on (and as of) the 2019 Term Loan Increase Effective Date, which payments shall be made in accordance with Section 2.2 of the Credit Agreement, and reduced as a result of prepayments of the 2019 Incremental Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.4 of the Credit Agreement.
4.Prepayment Premium. In the event that, on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the 2019 Term Loan Increase Effective Date, the Borrower (i) makes any prepayment of 2019 Incremental Term Loans and/or Initial Term Loans in connection with any Repricing Transaction or (ii) effects any amendment of this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the Agent, for the ratable account of each of the Term Loan Lenders holding Initial Term Loans and 2019 Incremental Term Loans, (x) in the case of clause (i), a prepayment premium of 1.00% of the principal amount of such 2019 Incremental Term Loans and Initial Term Loans being prepaid in connection with such Repricing Transaction and (y) in the case of clause (ii), an amount equal to 1.00% of the aggregate amount of the applicable 2019 Incremental Term Loans and Initial Term Loans outstanding immediately prior to such amendment that are subject to an effective pricing reduction pursuant to such Repricing Transaction, all in accordance with Section 2.4(d) of the Credit Agreement.
