(a) All pro forma calculations permitted or required to be made by Holdings or any Subsidiary pursuant to this Agreement shall include only those adjustments that (a) would be permitted or required by the definition of Consolidated EBITDA, (b) would be permitted or required by Regulation S-X under the Securities Act, or (c) have been certified by a Financial Officer of Holdings as having been prepared in good faith based upon reasonable assumptions.

(b) For purposes of calculating the principal amount of Indebtedness permitted to be incurred pursuant to Section 2.23 (including the definition of Incremental Facility Amount), 6.01(i) or 6.01(l), in each case in reliance on a pro forma calculation of the Total Secured Leverage Ratio, such pro forma calculation of the Total Secured Leverage Ratio shall not give effect to any other incurrence of Indebtedness on the date of determination secured by Liens pursuant to Section 6.02(dd) or, in the case of a calculation under Section 1.07, any proposed incurrence of Indebtedness on the closing date of a Limited Condition Acquisition to be secured by Liens pursuant to Section 6.02(dd).

SECTION 1.04. Classification of Loans and Borrowings. For purposes of this Agreement, Loans may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Loan”) or by Type (e.g., a “Term SOFR Loan”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Term SOFR Revolving Loan”). Borrowings also may be classified and referred to by Class (e.g., a “Revolving Credit Borrowing”) or by Type (e.g., a “Term SOFR Borrowing”) or by Class and Type (e.g., a “Term SOFR Revolving Credit Borrowing”).

SECTION 1.05. Exchange Rate Calculations. On each Calculation Date, the Administrative Agent shall (a) determine the Exchange Rate as of such Calculation Date and (b) give notice thereof to the Borrowers. The Exchange Rate so determined shall become effective on such Calculation Date and shall remain effective until the next succeeding Calculation Date, and shall for all purposes relating to the Revolving Credit Commitments and the extensions of credit thereunder (other than as set forth below or in any other provision expressly requiring the use of a current Exchange Rate) be the Exchange Rate employed in converting amounts between Dollars and any Designated Foreign Currency. Whenever it shall be necessary to determine the Required Lenders, or the allocation of any payment to be made to or by the Lenders holding Loans and Commitments denominated in Euro or another Designated Foreign Currency, (a) the Dollar Equivalent of the Term Loans denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency as determined at the time such Term Loans are made and (b) the Dollar Equivalent of the Revolving Credit Commitments denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency at the time such Revolving Credit Commitments become effective shall be used to make such determination. In addition, where the permissibility of a transaction depends upon compliance with, or is determined by reference to, amounts stated in Dollars or Euro, any amount stated in another currency shall be translated to Dollars or Euro, as the case may be, at the Exchange Rate then in effect and the permissibility of actions taken under Article VI shall not be affected by subsequent fluctuations in exchange rates. Further, if Indebtedness is incurred to refinance Indebtedness in a transaction otherwise permitted hereunder and such refinanced Indebtedness is denominated in a currency other than Euro or Dollars (or in a currency (including Euro or Dollars) that is different from the currency of the Indebtedness being incurred), and such refinancing would

cause an applicable Euro or Dollar denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the relevant currency exchange rate in effect on the date of such refinancing, such Euro or Dollar denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness incurred does not exceed (i) the outstanding committed or principal amount (whichever is higher) of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing.

SECTION 1.06. Designation as Senior Debt. The Loans and other Bank Obligations are hereby designated as “Senior Indebtedness” and “Designated Senior Indebtedness” for all purposes of the November 2013 5.625% Senior Unsecured Note Documents, the 2007 Intercreditor Agreement and the November 2013 Intercreditor Agreement.

SECTION 1.07. Limited Condition Acquisitions. (a) In connection with any action (including the incurrence of any Indebtedness or Liens or the making of any investments, Restricted Payments, Asset Sales or fundamental changes or the designation of any Person as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or as a Subsidiary) being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of (i) determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires the calculation of the Senior Secured First Lien Leverage Ratio, the Total Secured Leverage Ratio, the Total Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio or (ii) testing baskets set forth in this Agreement (including baskets measured as a percentage of Consolidated Total Assets), in each case, at the option of Holdings (and, if Holdings elects to exercise such option, such option shall be exercised on or prior to the date on which the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is executed) (Holdings’ election to exercise such option in connection with any Limited Condition Acquisition, an “LCA Election”), the date of determination of whether any such action is permitted hereunder, shall be deemed to be the date the definitive agreements for such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into (the “LCA Test Date”), and if, after giving pro forma effect to the Limited Condition Acquisition and the other transactions to be entered into in connection therewith (including any incurrence of Indebtedness and the use of proceeds thereof) as if they had occurred on the LCA Test Date, Holdings could have taken such action on the relevant LCA Test Date in compliance with such ratio or basket, such ratio or basket shall be deemed to have been complied with. For the avoidance of doubt, if Holdings has made an LCA Election and any of the ratios or baskets for which compliance was determined or tested as of the LCA Test Date in connection with any action taken with respect to such Limited Condition Acquisition are exceeded as a result of fluctuations in any such ratio or basket, including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of Holdings or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Acquisition, at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such baskets or ratios will be deemed not to have been exceeded as a result of such fluctuations.

(b) In connection with any action being taken in connection with a Limited Condition Acquisition, for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement (other than Article IV (except as set forth in Section 2.23(c))) which requires that no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, such condition shall, at the option of Holdings, be deemed satisfied, so long as no Default, Event of Default or specified Event of Default, as applicable, exists on the LCA Test Date. For the avoidance of doubt, if Holdings has exercised its option under the first sentence of this clause (b), and any Default or Event of Default occurs following the LCA Test Date and prior to the consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such Default or Event of Default shall be deemed to not have occurred or be continuing for purposes of determining whether any action being taken in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition is permitted hereunder.

ARTICLE II

The Credits

SECTION 2.01. Commitments. (a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth, each Revolving Credit Lender agrees, severally and not jointly, to make Revolving Loans to the Revolving Borrowers in Dollars, at any time and from time to time on or after the 2016 Restatement Date, and until the earlier of the Revolving Credit Maturity Date and the termination of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender in accordance with the terms hereof and in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (x) such Xxxxxx’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Revolving Credit Commitment or (y) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding the Total Revolving Credit Commitments. Within the limits set forth in the preceding sentence and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations set forth herein, the Borrowers may borrow, pay or prepay and reborrow Revolving Loans. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

(b) Each Lender having an Incremental Term Loan Commitment (including a U.S. Term Loan Commitment or a European Term Loan Commitment on the 2016 Restatement Date) or an Other Revolving Credit Commitment, severally and not jointly, hereby agrees, subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties set forth herein and in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, to make Incremental Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans, in an aggregate principal amount, to the Borrowers and on the terms and conditions set forth in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement. Amounts paid or prepaid in respect of Incremental Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.02. Loans. (a) Each Loan shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the applicable Class made by the Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Loan shall not in itself relieve any other Lender of its obligation to lend hereunder (it being understood, however, that no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make any Loan required to be made by such other Lender). Except for Loans deemed made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), the Loans comprising any Borrowing shall be in an aggregate principal amount that is (i) an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum (except, with respect to any Borrowing of Incremental Term Loans or Other Revolving Loans, to the extent otherwise provided in the related Incremental Assumption Agreement) or (ii) equal to the remaining available balance of the applicable Commitments.

(b) Subject to Sections 2.02(f), 2.08, 2.15 and 2.22(f), (i) each Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Term SOFR Loans as the applicable U.S. Borrower may request pursuant to Section 2.03 and (ii) each Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency shall be comprised entirely of Eurocurrency Loans. Each Lender may at its option make any Eurocurrency Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the applicable Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Borrowings of more than one Type may be outstanding at the same time; provided, however, that no Borrower shall be entitled to request any Borrowing that, if made, would result in more than 14 Term SOFR Borrowings of the U.S. Borrowers in the aggregate and six Eurocurrency Borrowings of the European Borrowers in the aggregate being outstanding hereunder at any time (or in each such case such greater number of Eurocurrency Borrowings or Term SOFR Borrowings, as applicable, permitted by

the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion). For purposes of the foregoing, Borrowings having different Interest Periods, regardless of whether they commence on the same date, shall be considered separate Borrowings.

(c) Except with respect to Loans made pursuant to Section 2.02(f), each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds in the applicable currency to such account as the Administrative Agent may designate not later than (i) 12:00 (noon), New York City time, in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars or an ABR Borrowing or (ii) 8:00 a.m., New York City time, in the case of any Borrowings denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency, and the Administrative Agent shall promptly credit the amounts so received to an account in the name of the applicable Borrower, designated by such Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request or, if a Borrowing shall not occur on such date because any condition precedent herein specified shall not have been met, return the amounts so received to the respective Lenders.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Xxxxxx’s portion of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Xxxxxx has made such portion available to the Administrative Agent on the date of such Borrowing in accordance with paragraph (c) above and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the applicable Borrower on such date a corresponding amount. If the Administrative Agent shall have so made funds available then, to the extent that such Lender shall not have made such portion available to the Administrative Agent, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is made available to such Borrower to but excluding the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at (i) in the case of such Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable at the time to the Loans comprising such Borrowing and (ii) in the case of such Lender, a rate determined by the Administrative Agent to represent its cost of overnight or short‑term funds in the applicable currency (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error). If such Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent such corresponding amount, such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan as part of such Borrowing for purposes of this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Borrower shall be entitled to request any Revolving Credit Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(f) If the applicable Issuing Bank shall not have received from the applicable Borrower the payment required to be made by Section 2.22(e) within the time specified in such Section, such Issuing Bank will promptly notify the Administrative Agent of the applicable L/C Disbursement and the Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Revolving Credit Lender of such L/C Disbursement, the Dollar Equivalent thereof (if denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency) and its Pro Rata Percentage thereof. Each Revolving Credit Lender shall pay by wire transfer of immediately available funds in Dollars to the Administrative Agent, an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement (or the Dollar Equivalent thereof if such L/C Disbursement was denominated in an Designated Foreign Currency) (it being understood that (i) if the conditions precedent to borrowing set forth in Sections 4.01(b) and (c) have been satisfied, such amount

shall be deemed to constitute an ABR Revolving Loan of such Lender and, to the extent of such payment, the obligations of the applicable Borrower in respect of such L/C Disbursement shall be discharged and replaced with the resulting ABR Revolving Credit Borrowing and (ii) if such conditions precedent to borrowing have not been satisfied, then any such amount paid by any Revolving Credit Lender shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the applicable Borrower from its obligation to reimburse such L/C Disbursement), and the Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank amounts so received by it from each Revolving Credit Lender. The fundings by the Revolving Credit Lenders pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on the dates, and prior to the times, that would be required for the funding of a Revolving Credit Borrowing were the Administrative Agent’s notice deemed to be a Borrowing notice pursuant to Section 2.03. The Administrative Agent will promptly pay to such Issuing Bank any amounts received by it from the applicable Borrowers pursuant to Section 2.22(e) prior to the time that any Revolving Credit Lender makes any payment pursuant to this paragraph (f); any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent thereafter will be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Credit Lenders that shall have made such payments and to such Issuing Bank, as their interests may appear. If any Revolving Credit Lender shall not have made its Pro Rata Percentage of such L/C Disbursement available to the Administrative Agent as provided above, such Lender and the applicable Borrower severally agree to pay interest on such amount, for each day from and including the date such amount is required to be paid in accordance with this paragraph to but excluding the date such amount is paid, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Bank at (i) in the case of such Borrower, a rate per annum equal to the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.06(a), and (ii) in the case of such Lender, for the first such day, the Federal Funds Effective Rate, and for each day thereafter, the Alternate Base Rate.

SECTION 2.03. Borrowing Procedure. In order to request a Borrowing (other than a deemed Borrowing pursuant to Section 2.02(f) as to which this Section 2.03 shall not apply), a Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (a) in the case of a Term SOFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, three Business Days before a proposed Borrowing and (b) in the case of a Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, four Business Days before a proposed Borrowing and (c) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, one Business Day before a proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery, fax or e-mail delivery to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request and shall specify the following information: (i) whether the Borrowing then being requested is to be a Borrowing of Tranche B-1 U.S. Term Loans, Tranche B-2 U.S. Term Loans, Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans, European Term Loans, Incremental Term Loans of any other Class, Revolving Loans or Other Revolving Loans and whether such Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing, a Term SOFR Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing (or a FBR Borrowing); (ii) the date of such Borrowing (which shall be a Business Day); (iii) the number and location of the account to which funds are to be disbursed; (iv) the amount and currency of such Borrowing; and (v) if such Borrowing is to be a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto; provided, however, that, notwithstanding any contrary specification in any Borrowing Request, (x) each requested Borrowing shall comply with the requirements set forth in Section 2.02 and (y) no Borrowing may be requested to be made on the same day that a prepayment under Section 2.12 of Loans of the same Class and Type the requested Borrowing is scheduled to be made. If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the requested Borrowing shall be in the case of Borrowing denominated in Dollars, an ABR Borrowing, and, in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency, a Eurocurrency Borrowing. If no Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing or

Term SOFR Borrowing is specified in any such notice, then the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall promptly advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.03 (and the contents thereof), and of each Lender’s portion of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Evidence of Debt; Repayment of Loans. (a) The U.S. Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender the principal amount of the applicable Class of U.S. Term Loans of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11. The Revolving Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan of such Lender on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The European Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each applicable Lender the principal amount of each European Term Loan of such Lender as provided in Section 2.11.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain, in accordance with its usual practice, an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of each Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it will record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class, Type and currency thereof and, if applicable, the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from each Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from any Borrower or any Guarantor and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraphs (b) and (c) above shall be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations therein recorded; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain such accounts or any error therein shall not in any manner affect the obligations of any Borrower to repay the Loans in accordance with their terms.

(e) Any Lender may request that Loans made by it hereunder be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, each applicable Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and such Borrower. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, in the event any Lender shall request and receive such a promissory note, the interests represented by such note shall at all times (including after any assignment of all or part of such interests pursuant to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes payable to the payee named therein or its registered assigns.

SECTION 2.05. Fees. (a) Each Revolving Borrower, jointly and severally, agrees to pay to each Revolving Credit Lender, through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December in each year and on eachthe date on which any Commitment of such Lender shallthe Commitments expire or beare terminated in full as provided herein, a facilityan unused commitment fee (the “FacilityUnused Commitment Fees”) in Dollars equal to 0.500.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (whether used or unused) of such Lender during the preceding quarter (or other period commencing with the 2016 Restatement2024 Revolving Facility Transactions Amendment Effective Date or ending with the Revolving Credit

Maturity Date or the date on which the Commitments of such Lender shall expire or be terminated); provided that (i) if any Revolving Credit Exposure remains outstanding following any such expiration or termination of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Facility Fees with respect to such Revolving Credit Exposure shall continue to accrue for so long as such Revolving Credit Exposure remains outstanding and shall be payable on demand and (ii) if any Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender, the portion of such FacilityUnused Commitment Fee attributable to the unused amount of the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall cease to accrue and shall not be payable hereunder for so long as such Revolving Credit Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. All FacilityUnused Commitment Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(b) Each Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account and the accounts of its Affiliates referred to therein, the fees set forth in the applicable Fee Letter at the times and in the amounts specified therein (the “Administrative Agent Fees”).

(c) Each Revolving Borrower agrees to pay to each Revolving Credit Lender (other than a Defaulting Lender), through the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of March, June, September and December of each year and on the date on which the Revolving Credit Commitment of such Lender shall be terminated as provided herein, a fee (the “L/C Participation Fees”) in Dollars calculated on such Xxxxxx’s Pro Rata Percentage of the daily aggregate L/C Exposure (excluding the portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed L/C Disbursements) during the preceding quarter (or shorter period commencing with the 2016 Restatement2024 Revolving Facility Transactions Amendment Effective Date or ending with the Revolving Credit Maturity Date or the date on which all Letters of Credit have been canceled or have expired and the Revolving Credit Commitments of all Lenders shall have been terminated) at a rate per annum equal to the Applicable Margin from time to time used to determine the interest rate on Revolving Credit Borrowings comprised of Eurocurrency Loans and Term SOFR Loans pursuant to Section 2.06. Each Revolving Borrower agrees to pay to each Issuing Bank for its own account, the fronting, issuing and drawing fees specified from time to time by such Issuing Bank (the “Issuing Bank Fees”). All L/C Participation Fees and Issuing Bank Fees shall be computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed in a year of 360 days.

(d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent for distribution, if and as appropriate, among the Lenders, except that the Issuing Bank Fees shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.06. Interest on Loans. (a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, and calculated from and including the date of such Borrowing to but excluding the date of repayment thereof) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Term SOFR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Term SOFR for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each FBR Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual days elapsed over a year of 360 days, as the case may be) at a rate per annum equal to the Foreign Base Rate in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(d) Interest on each Loan shall be payable on the Interest Payment Dates applicable to such Loan except as otherwise provided in this Agreement. The applicable Alternate Base Rate, Foreign Base Rate or Adjusted Term SOFR or EURIBO Rate for each Interest Period or day within an Interest Period, as the case may be, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(e) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.07, the Loans comprising each Eurocurrency Borrowing shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 360 days) at a rate per annum equal to the EURIBO Rate for the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

SECTION 2.07. Default Interest. If any Borrower shall default in the payment of any principal of or interest on any Loan or any other amount due hereunder or under any other Loan Document, by acceleration or otherwise, until such defaulted amount shall have been paid in full, to the extent permitted by law, all overdue amounts outstanding under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall bear interest (after as well as before judgment), payable on demand, (a) in the case of overdue principal, at the rate otherwise applicable to such Loan pursuant to Section 2.06 plus 2.00% per annum and (b) with respect to all other overdue amounts, at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of 365 or 366 days, as the case may be, when determined by reference to the Prime Rate and over a year of 360 days at all other times) equal to (i) if such overdue amount relates to Revolving Loans, the rate that would be applicable to a Daily Rate Revolving Loan, (ii) if such overdue amount relates to Tranche B-1 U.S. Term Loans, the rate that would be applicable to a Daily Rate Tranche B-1 U.S. Term Loan, (iii) if such overdue amount relates to Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans, the rate that would be applicable to a Daily Rate Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loan and (iv) otherwise, the rate that would be applicable to a Daily Rate Tranche B-2 U.S. Term Loan, in each case, plus 2.00% per annum.

SECTION 2.08. Alternate Rate of Interest. (a) If at least two Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurocurrency Borrowing or Term SOFR Borrowing:

(i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted Term SOFR or the EURIBO Rate, as applicable, for such Interest Period; provided that no Benchmark Transition Event shall have occurred at such time; or

(ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that the Adjusted Term SOFR or the EURIBO Rate for the applicable currency and/or such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining their Loans included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period;

then the Administrative Agent shall give written notice thereof to Holdings and the Lenders by hand delivery, facsimile or other electronic transmission as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies Holdings and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, which the Administrative Agent agrees promptly to do, (i) any request by a Borrower for the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term SOFR Borrowing shall be ineffective and such Borrowing shall be converted to a Daily Rate Borrowing and the utilization of the Adjusted Term SOFR component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended on the last day

of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (ii) if any Borrowing Request requests a Term SOFR Borrowing or Eurocurrency Borrowing, as applicable, then such Borrowing shall be made as a Daily Rate Borrowing and, in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, the utilization of the Adjusted Term SOFR component in determining the Alternate Base Rate shall be suspended; provided, however, that (x) in each case, Holdings may revoke any Borrowing Request that is pending when such notice is received and (y) if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only Borrowings in certain currencies, then the Borrowings in unaffected currencies shall be permitted to the extent otherwise permitted by this Agreement.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt-in Election, as applicable, the Administrative Agent and Holdings may amend this Agreement to replace any Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect any Benchmark for Borrowings and Loans denominated in Dollars with (x) a Benchmark Replacement determined in accordance with clause (a) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” will be effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) a Benchmark Replacement determined in accordance with clause (b) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting will become effective at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Holdings so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis. Any such amendment with respect any Benchmark for Borrowings and Loans denominated in Euros will become effective at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the fifth Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all Lenders and Holdings so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. Any such amendment with respect to an Early Opt-in Election will become effective on the date that Lenders comprising the Required Lenders have delivered to the Administrative Agent written notice that such Required Lenders accept such amendment. No replacement of any Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 2.08 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date.

(c) In connection with the implementation of or, solely with respect to a Benchmark Replacement for Borrowings or Loans denominated in Dollars, the use or administration of, a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time with the prior written consent of Holdings, not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify Holdings and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event or an Early Opt in Election, as applicable, and its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or Lenders pursuant to this Section 2.08, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and

without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 2.08.

(e) Upon Holdings’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, Holdings may revoke any request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, Holdings will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to Daily Rate Loans. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to the Adjusted Term SOFR, (x) the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the Adjusted Term SOFR will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate, (y) any request by a Borrower for the conversion of any Borrowing to, or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term SOFR Borrowing shall be ineffective and (z) any affected Borrowing shall be converted to a Daily Rate Borrowing on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, with respect to any Borrowings or Loans denominated in Dollars, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Xxxxxxxxx has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, to the extent any Tranche B-1 U.S. Term Loans are outstanding under this Agreement with respect to which the terms of this Section 2.08 do not apply, solely for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders have taken any action contemplated by this Section 2.08 or the definition of the term “Benchmark Transition Start Date” or “Early Opt-in Election”, such Tranche B-1 U.S. Term Loans shall be disregarded in making such determination.

SECTION 2.09. Termination and Reduction of Commitments. (a) Any Incremental Term Loan Commitments shall terminate as provided in the related Incremental Assumption Agreement. The Revolving Credit Commitments shall automatically terminate on the Revolving Credit Maturity Date. The L/C Commitments shall automatically terminate on the earlier to occur of (i) the termination of the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments and (ii) the date 30 days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date.

(b) Upon at least three Business Days’ prior irrevocable written or fax notice to the Administrative Agent, the applicable U.S. Borrowers or the applicable European Borrowers may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Term Loan Commitments of any Class or the Revolving Credit

Commitments extended to such Borrowers; provided, however, that (i) each partial reduction of any Term Loan Commitments or any Revolving Credit Commitments of any Class shall be in an integral multiple of the Borrowings Multiple and in a minimum amount equal to the Borrowing Minimum and (ii) the Total Revolving Credit Commitment shall not be reduced to an amount that is less than the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (without taking into account Letters of Credit that have been cash collateralized or backstopped in a manner reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent) at the time. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the applicable U.S. Borrowers and the applicable European Borrowers may rescind any notice of termination under this Section 2.09 if such termination would have resulted from a refinancing of all of the relevant Loans, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed.

(c) Each reduction in the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments of a Class hereunder shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitments of such Class. The U.S. Borrowers or the European Borrowers, as applicable, shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the applicable Lenders, on the date of each termination or reduction, of any Revolving Credit Commitments, the Facility Fees on the amount of the Commitments so terminated or reduced accrued to but excluding the date of such termination or reduction.

SECTION 2.10. Conversion and Continuation of Borrowings. The applicable Borrowers shall have the right at any time upon prior irrevocable written notice to the Administrative Agent (a) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City Time, three Business Days prior to the day of conversion or continuation, to (x) convert any Term SOFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars into an ABR Borrowing or to continue any Term SOFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars as a Term SOFR Borrowing for an additional Interest Period, (y) convert any ABR Borrowing into a Term SOFR Borrowing or (z) convert the Interest Period with respect to any Term SOFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars to another permissible Interest Period and (b) not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, four Business Days prior to conversion or continuation, to (A) continue any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency as a Eurocurrency Borrowing for an additional Interest Period or (B) convert the Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency to another permissible Interest Period, subject in each case to the following:

(i) [reserved];

(ii) each conversion or continuation shall be made pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with the respective principal amounts of the Loans comprising the converted or continued Borrowing;

(iii) if less than all the outstanding principal amount of any Borrowing shall be converted or continued, then each resulting Borrowing shall satisfy the limitations specified in Sections 2.02(a) and 2.02(b) regarding the principal amount and maximum number of Borrowings of the relevant Type;

(iv) each conversion shall be effected by each Lender and the Administrative Agent by recording for the account of such Lender the new Loan of such Lender resulting from such conversion and reducing the Loan (or portion thereof) of such Lender being converted by an equivalent principal amount; and accrued interest on any Eurocurrency Loan or any Term SOFR Loan (or portion thereof) being converted shall be paid by the applicable Borrower at the time of conversion;

(v) if any Eurocurrency Borrowing or any Term SOFR Borrowing is converted at a time other than the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, the applicable Borrower shall pay, upon demand, any amounts due to the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.16;

(vi) any portion of a Borrowing maturing or required to be repaid in less than one month may not be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing;

(vii) any portion of a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing that cannot be converted into or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing, as applicable, by reason of the immediately preceding clause shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into a Daily Rate Borrowing;

(viii) no Interest Period may be selected for any Eurocurrency Borrowing or any Term SOFR Borrowing that would end later than a Term Loan Repayment Date occurring on or after the first day of such Interest Period if, after giving effect to such selection, the aggregate outstanding amount of (A) the Eurocurrency Borrowings or the Term SOFR Borrowings comprised of Term Loans or Other Term Loans, as applicable, with Interest Periods ending on or prior to such Term Loan Repayment Date and (B) the Daily Rate Term Borrowings comprised of Term Loans or Other Term Loans, as applicable, would not be at least equal to the principal amount of Term Borrowings to be paid on such Term Loan Repayment Date; and

(ix) upon notice to the Borrowers from the Administrative Agent given at the request of the Required Lenders, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, (A) no outstanding Loan may be converted into, or continued as, a Term SOFR Loan, (B) each outstanding Term SOFR Borrowing denominated in Dollars shall be automatically converted at the end of the Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing into an ABR Borrowing and (C) no Interest Period in excess of one month may be selected for any Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency.

Each notice pursuant to this Section 2.10 shall be irrevocable and shall refer to this Agreement and specify (i) the identity and amount of the Borrowing that the applicable Borrower requests be converted or continued, (ii) whether such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing or an ABR Borrowing or, to the extent required by Section 2.10(vii), an FBR Borrowing, (iii) if such notice requests a conversion, the date of such conversion (which shall be a Business Day) and (iv) if such Borrowing is to be converted to or continued as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing, the Interest Period with respect thereto. If no Interest Period is specified in any such notice with respect to any conversion to or continuation as a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing, the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. The Administrative Agent shall advise the applicable Lenders of any notice given pursuant to this Section 2.10 and of each such Lender’s portion of any converted or continued Borrowing. If the applicable Borrower shall not have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to continue any Borrowing into a subsequent Interest Period (and shall not otherwise have given notice in accordance with this Section 2.10 to convert such Borrowing), such Borrowing shall, at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto (unless repaid pursuant to the terms hereof), (i) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in Dollars, automatically be continued as an ABR Borrowing and (ii) in the case of a Borrowing denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency, automatically be continued as a new Eurocurrency Borrowing with an Interest Period of one month.

SECTION 2.11. Repayment of Term Borrowings. (a) (i) The U.S. Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing with the first

full calendar quarter ending after the Amendment No. 13 Effective Date, for the account of the Tranche B-2 U.S. Term Lenders, a principal amount of the Tranche B-2 U.S. Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(f) and 2.23(d)) equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B-2 U.S. Term Loans made on the Amendment No. 13 Effective Date.

(ii) The European Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the European Term Lenders, on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter following the 2017 Incremental Term Loan Effective Date (commencing with the calendar quarter that contains the 2017 Incremental Term Loan Effective Date), a principal amount of the European Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(f) and 2.23(d)) equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Incremental European Term Loans (as defined in the Second Incremental Assumption Agreement) made on the 2017 Incremental Term Loan Effective Date.

(iii) The U.S. Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter commencing with the first full calendar quarter ending after the 2021 Specified Refinancing and Incremental Amendment Effective Date, for the account of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Lenders, a principal amount of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12, 2.13(f) and 2.23(d)) equal to 0.25% of the aggregate principal amount of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans made on the 2021 Specified Refinancing and Incremental Amendment Effective Date.

(iv) Except with respect to the Term Loans described in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.11(a), the applicable Term Borrower or Term Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Incremental Term Lenders, on each Incremental Term Loan Repayment Date, a principal amount of the Other Term Loans (as adjusted from time to time pursuant to Sections 2.12 and 2.13(f)) equal to the amount set forth for such date in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, together in each case with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of such payment.

(b) To the extent not previously paid, all Term Loans and Other Term Loans shall be due and payable on the European Term Loan Maturity Date, the Tranche B-1 U.S. Term Loan Maturity Date, the Tranche B-2 U.S. Term Loan Maturity Date, the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loan Maturity Date or the Incremental Term Loan Maturity Date, as the case may be, applicable to such Class of Term Loans or Other Term Loans, together with accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be paid to but excluding the date of payment.

(c) All repayments pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be subject to Section 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty.

SECTION 2.12. Voluntary Prepayment. (a) The Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing, in whole or in part, following written or fax notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or fax notice) to the Administrative Agent not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time, (i) three Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of Term SOFR Loans denominated in Dollars, (ii) four Business Days prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of Eurocurrency Loans denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency and (iii) one Business Day prior to the date of prepayment, in the case of ABR Loans; provided, however, that (x) each partial prepayment shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of the Borrowing Multiple and not less than the Borrowing Minimum and (y) at the applicable Borrower’s election in connection with any prepayment of Revolving Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12(a), such prepayment may not, so long as no Event of Default then exists, be applied to any Revolving Loan of a Defaulting Lender.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.12 or any other provision of this Agreement and without otherwise limiting the rights in respect of prepayments of the Loans, so long as no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, Holdings, any Borrower or any of their Subsidiaries (each, a “Repurchaser”) may repurchase outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12 on the following basis:

(i) The Repurchaser may conduct one or more auctions (each, an “Auction”) to repurchase all or any portion of the Term Loans of any Class by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent (for distribution to the Term Lenders of the related Class) identifying the Term Loans that will be the subject of the Auction (an “Auction Notice”). Each Auction Notice shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall contain (x) the total cash value of the bid, in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or €10,000,000, as the case may be, with minimum increments of $1,000,000 or €1,000,000, as the case may be (the “Auction Amount”) and (y) the discount to par, which shall be a range (the “Discount Range”) of percentages of the par principal amount of the Term Loans at issue that represents the range of purchase prices that could be paid in the Auction;

(ii) In connection with any Auction, each Term Lender of the related Class may, in its sole discretion, participate in such Auction and may provide the Administrative Agent with a notice of participation (the “Return Bid”) which shall be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and shall specify (x) a discount to par that must be expressed as a price (the “Reply Discount”), which must be within the Discount Range, and (y) a principal amount of Term Loans which must be in increments of $1,000,000 or €1,000,000, as the case may be, or in an amount equal to the Term Lender’s entire remaining amount of such Term Loans (the “Reply Amount”). Term Lenders may only submit one Return Bid per Auction. In addition to the Return Bid, the participating Term Lender must execute and deliver, to be held in escrow by the Administrative Agent, an Assignment and Acceptance in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent;

(iii) Based on the Reply Discounts and Reply Amounts received by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Repurchaser, will determine the applicable discount (the “Applicable Discount”) for the Auction, which will be the lowest Reply Discount for which the Repurchaser can complete the Auction at the Auction Amount; provided that, in the event that the Reply Amounts are insufficient to allow the Repurchaser to complete a purchase of the entire Auction Amount (any such Auction, a “Failed Auction”), the Repurchaser shall either, at its election, (x) withdraw the Auction or (y) complete the Auction at an Applicable Discount equal to the highest Reply Discount. The Repurchaser shall purchase Term Loans subject to such Auctions (or the respective portions thereof) from each applicable Term Lender with a Reply Discount that is equal to or greater than the Applicable Discount (“Qualifying Bids”) at the Applicable Discount; provided, further, that if the aggregate proceeds required to purchase all Term Loans subject to Qualifying Bids would exceed the Auction Amount for such Auction, the Repurchaser shall purchase such Term Loans at the Applicable Discount ratably based on the principal amounts of such Qualifying Bids (subject to rounding requirements specified by the Administrative Agent). Each participating Term Lender will receive notice of a Qualifying Bid as soon as reasonably practicable but in no case later than five Business Days from the date the Return Bid was due;

(iv) Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Repurchaser may not withdraw an Auction other than a Failed Auction. Furthermore, in connection with any Auction, upon submission by a Term Lender of a Qualifying Bid, such Term Lender (each, a “Qualifying

Lender”) will be obligated to sell the entirety or its allocable portion of the Reply Amount, as the case may be, at the Applicable Discount;

(v) With respect to all repurchases made by the Repurchaser pursuant to this Section 2.12(b), such repurchases shall be deemed to be voluntary prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.12 in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of such Term Loans; provided that such repurchases shall not be subject to the provisions of Section 2.12(a), Section 2.17 and Section 2.18; and

(vi) The repurchases by the Repurchaser of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be subject to the following conditions: (v) the Auction is open to all Term Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis, (w) no Default or Event of Default has occurred or is continuing or would result therefrom, (x) any Term Loans repurchased pursuant to this Section 2.12(b) shall be automatically and permanently canceled upon acquisition thereof by the Repurchaser, (y) the Repurchaser shall not use the proceeds of Revolving Loans (including Incremental Revolving Loans) to acquire such Term Loans and (z) at the time of (and calculated on a pro forma basis after giving effect to) any such repurchase, the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure (excluding any outstanding L/C Exposure) shall not exceed unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand of Holdings and the Subsidiaries.

(vii) Each Lender participating in any Auction acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such Auction, (x) the Repurchaser may then have, or later may come into possession of, Excluded Information, (y) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on Holdings, the Borrowers, any of the other Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, made its own analysis and determination to participate in such Auction notwithstanding such Lender’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (z) none of Holdings, the Borrowers, any other Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against Holdings, the Borrowers, the other Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender participating in any Auction further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

(c) Voluntary prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(a) shall be allocated among the Classes of Term Loans as specified by the applicable Term Borrower or Term Borrowers and shall be applied against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due in respect of the Term Loans of any such Class under Section 2.11 as specified by the applicable Term Borrower or Term Borrowers.

(d) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing (or portion thereof) to be prepaid, shall be irrevocable (provided that such notice may be conditioned on receiving the proceeds of any refinancing or the occurrence of any other event) and shall commit the applicable Borrower to prepay such Borrowing by the amount stated therein on the date stated therein; provided, however, that if such prepayment is for all of the then outstanding Loans of a Class, then the applicable Borrower may revoke such notice and/or extend the prepayment date; provided further, however, that the provisions of Section 2.16 shall apply with respect to any such revocation or extension. All prepayments under Section 2.12(a) shall be subject to Sections 2.12(e), 2.12 (f) and 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty. All prepayments under

Section 2.12(a) (other than prepayments of Daily Rate Revolving Loans that are not made in connection with the termination or permanent reduction of the applicable Revolving Credit Commitments) shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment.

(e) If, prior to the date that is six months after the 2021 Specified Refinancing and Incremental Amendment Effective Date, (i) all or any portion of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans are prepaid out of the proceeds of a substantially concurrent issuance or incurrence by Holdings, the Borrowers or any of their subsidiaries of any broadly syndicated dollar-denominated long-term term “B” credit facility that is secured on a pari passu basis with the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans and the all-in-yield (as determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with Holdings and in a manner consistent with generally accepted financial practice and, in any event, excluding the effect of any arrangement, structuring, syndication, commitment or other fees in connection therewith that are not shared with all providers of such financing, and without taking into account any fluctuations in the Adjusted Term SOFR) of such secured term loan financing is less than the yield (as determined by the Administrative Agent on the same basis) of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans or (ii) a Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Lender must assign its Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.21 as a result of its failure to consent to an amendment that would reduce (as determined by the Administrative Agent in consultation with Holdings) any of the interest rate margins (or other pricing-related terms) then in effect with respect to such Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans then in each case the aggregate principal amount so prepaid or assigned will be subject to a fee payable by the U.S. Borrowers equal to 1.0% of the principal amount thereof; provided that, in each case, such fee shall only be payable if the primary purpose (as determined by Holdings in good faith) of such prepayment, repayment, refinancing, substitution, replacement, amendment, waiver or other modification was to reduce the all-in-yield of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans; provided further that this Section 2.12(e) shall not apply to any prepayment of the Tranche B-3 U.S. Term Loans upon the occurrence of a Change in Control or an acquisition or investment the aggregate consideration for which exceeds $125,000,000.

SECTION 2.13. Mandatory Prepayments. (a) In the event of any termination of all the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Borrowers shall, on the date of such termination, repay or prepay all outstanding Revolving Credit Borrowings and replace or cause to be canceled (or cash collateralize or backstop pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and each Issuing Bank) all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by each such Issuing Bank. If, after giving effect to any partial reduction of the Revolving Credit Commitments or at any other time (including on any Calculation Date), the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure would exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment, then the Revolving Borrowers shall, on the date of such reduction or at such other time, repay or prepay Revolving Credit Borrowings and, after the Revolving Credit Borrowings shall have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace or cause to be canceled (or cash collateralize or backstop pursuant to arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Bank) Letters of Credit issued by each such Issuing Bank in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess.

(b) Not later than the Asset Sale Prepayment Date with respect to any Asset Sale, the Borrowers shall apply an amount equal to 100% of the Net Cash Proceeds received with respect thereto to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(f); provided that (i) no such prepayment will be required until the Net Cash Proceeds in respect of Asset Sales received from and after the time of the immediately preceding prepayment under this clause (b) (or if no such prepayments have yet occurred since the 2016 Restatement

Date, from the 2016 Restatement Date) exceeds $100,000,000 (or, if an asset sale offer or prepayment is required at a lower threshold under the definitive documentation governing any Material Indebtedness, such lower threshold) and (ii) with respect to the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale, to the extent any applicable Senior Secured Note Indenture requires the Borrowers to prepay or make an offer to purchase Senior Secured Notes with Liens on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens securing the Bank Obligations with the proceeds of such Asset Sale, the Net Cash Proceeds to be applied to prepay outstanding Term Loans pursuant to this clause (b) shall be reduced by an amount equal to the product of (1) the amount of such Net Cash Proceeds and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes with a Lien on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens securing the Bank Obligations and with respect to which such a requirement to prepay or make an offer to purchase exists and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Senior Secured Notes and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.

(c) No later than the earlier of (i) 90 days after the end of each fiscal year of Holdings, commencing with the fiscal year ending on December 31, 2016, and (ii) the date that is 10 days following the date on which the financial statements with respect to such period are delivered pursuant to Section 5.04(a), the Borrowers shall prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(f) in an aggregate principal amount equal to (A) (x) if the Senior Secured First Lien Leverage Ratio at the end of such period shall have been greater than 3.0 to 1.0, 50% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended and (y) if the Senior Secured First Lien Leverage Ratio at the end of such period shall have been less than or equal to 3.0 to 1.0 and greater than 2.5 to 1.0, 25% of Excess Cash Flow for the fiscal year then ended (it being understood that no prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) shall be required in respect of the fiscal year then ended if the Senior Secured First Lien Leverage Ratio at the end of such period shall have been less than or equal to 2.5 to 1.0), in each case minus (B) Voluntary Prepayments and prepayments of Revolving Loans under Section 2.12(a) during such fiscal year but only to the extent that the Indebtedness so prepaid by its terms cannot be reborrowed or redrawn and such prepayments are not made with funds received in connection with a refinancing of all or any portion of such Indebtedness minus (C) the amount of cash used to make permanent voluntary prepayments, repurchases or redemptions, as the case may be, of Term Loans pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or 9.04(m) or of Senior Secured Notes (and the repayment or redemption of Senior Secured Notes upon the maturity thereof) during such fiscal year but only to the extent that the Term Loans and Senior Secured Notes so prepaid, repaid, repurchased or redeemed, as the case may be, by their terms cannot be reborrowed, redrawn or resold and such prepayments, repayments, repurchases or redemptions are not made with funds received in connection with a refinancing of all or any portion of such Term Loans and Senior Secured Notes; provided that the Borrowers may use a portion of such Excess Cash Flow to prepay Senior Secured Notes in the form of senior secured loans with Liens on the Collateral ranking pari passu with the Liens securing the Bank Obligations to the extent the definitive documentation in respect of any such Senior Secured Notes requires the Borrowers to prepay such Senior Secured Notes with such Excess Cash Flow (and, for the avoidance of doubt, the amount of Excess Cash Flow required to be applied in prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13(c) shall be reduced by such portion), in each case in an amount not to exceed the product of (1) the amount of such Excess Cash Flow and (2) a fraction, the numerator of which is the outstanding principal amount of such Senior Secured Notes with respect to which such a requirement to prepay exists and the denominator of which is the sum of the outstanding principal amount of such Senior Secured Notes and the outstanding principal amount of Term Loans.

(d) In the event that any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party shall receive Net Cash Proceeds from the issuance or incurrence of Indebtedness for money borrowed of any Loan Party or any Subsidiary of a Loan Party (other than any cash proceeds from Indebtedness permitted by Section 6.01), the Borrowers shall, substantially simultaneously with (and in any event not later than the fourth Business Day next following) the receipt of such Net Cash Proceeds by such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, apply an amount equal to 100% of such Net Cash Proceeds to prepay outstanding Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.13(f).

(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Holdings (in its sole discretion) may give each Term Lender the option (in its sole discretion) to elect, by written notice to the Administrative Agent at the time and in the manner specified by the Administrative Agent in consultation with Holdings, to decline all (but not less than all) of any mandatory prepayment of its Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.13 (such declined amounts, the “Declined Proceeds”). Any Declined Proceeds may be retained by the Borrowers and will be added to the Available Amount.

(f) Subject to Section 2.13(e), mandatory prepayments of outstanding Term Loans under this Agreement shall be allocated pro rata to each Class of Term Loans and applied to the remaining scheduled installments of principal due pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) and (iv) of Section 2.11(a) as directed by the applicable Borrower (and absent any such direction, in direct order of maturity against the remaining scheduled installments of principal due).

(g) Each applicable Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, at the time of each prepayment required under this Section 2.13, (i) a certificate signed by a Financial Officer of such Borrower setting forth in reasonable detail the calculation of the amount of such prepayment and (ii) at least four Business Days prior irrevocable written notice of such prepayment, which notice, in the case of any prepayments required under Section 2.13(b) or Section 2.13(d), may be conditioned upon the receipt by Holdings or a Subsidiary of the Net Cash Proceeds referred to therein or the occurrence of any other event. Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the Class and Type of each Loan being prepaid and the principal amount of each Loan (or portion thereof) to be prepaid. All prepayments of Borrowings under this Section 2.13 shall be subject to Sections 2.13(f) and 2.16, but shall otherwise be without premium or penalty, and shall be accompanied by accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount to be prepaid to but excluding the date of payment.

(h) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions, to the extent that repatriating any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Excess Cash Flow attributable to a Foreign Subsidiary (x) would result in material adverse tax consequences to Holdings or any Subsidiary or (y) is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to any jurisdiction that would enable such amounts to be applied to prepayment pursuant to this Section 2.13 (in the case of the foregoing clauses (x) and (y), as reasonably determined by Holdings in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive), the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied in compliance with the foregoing provisions, and such amounts may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary or invested in, distributed to or otherwise transferred to any other Foreign Subsidiary; provided, however, that, in the case of this clause (y), if the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow the repatriation of which is prohibited or delayed by applicable local law exceeds $10.0 million, Holdings shall take commercially reasonable efforts to cause the

applicable Foreign Subsidiary to take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law, applicable organizational impediments or other impediment to permit such repatriation, and if such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow can be achieved such repatriation will be promptly effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be applied (whether or not repatriation actually occurs), in compliance with the foregoing provisions (A) in the case of Excess Cash Flow, within 10 Business Days thereafter and (B) in the case of Net Cash Proceeds from Any Asset Sale, within the time periods specified in Section 2.13(b) above (measured from the date such Net Cash Proceeds can be repatriated, whether or not such repatriation actually occurs).

SECTION 2.14. Reserve Requirements; Change in Circumstances. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of or credit extended by any Lender or any Issuing Bank (except any such reserve requirement which is reflected in the EURIBO Rate) or shall impose on such Lender or such Issuing Bank or the applicable interbank market any other condition (including, in each case, the imposition of Taxes other than (and excluding) Taxes (i) imposed on any payment made pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) measured by net income or profits, franchise, branch profits or similar Taxes or (iii) arising under FATCA) affecting this Agreement or Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein, and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender or such Issuing Bank of making or maintaining any Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loan or increase the cost to any Lender or any Issuing Bank of issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or purchasing or maintaining a participation therein or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, then the U.S. Borrowers or the European Borrowers, as applicable, will pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, upon demand such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall have reasonably determined that any Change in Law regarding capital adequacy has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Loans made or participations in Letters of Credit purchased by such Lender pursuant hereto or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank pursuant hereto to a level below that which such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by such Lender or such Issuing Bank to be material, then from time to time the U.S. Borrowers or European Borrowers, as applicable, shall pay to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered.

(c) If any Lender or Issuing Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to paragraph (a) or (b) above, it shall provide prompt notice thereof to the applicable Borrower, through the Administrative Agent, certifying (i) that one of the events described in paragraph (a) or (b) has occurred and describing in reasonable detail the nature of such event, (ii) as to the increased cost or reduced amount resulting from such event and (iii) as to the additional amount demanded by such Xxxxxx or Issuing Lender and a reasonably detailed explanation of the

calculation thereof. Such a certificate shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The applicable Borrower or Borrowers shall pay such Lender or such Issuing Bank the amount shown as due on any such certificate delivered by it within 30 days after its receipt of the same.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or any Issuing Bank to demand compensation for any increased costs or reduction in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that no Borrower shall be under any obligation to compensate any Lender or any Issuing Bank under paragraph (a) or (b) above with respect to increased costs or reductions with respect to any period prior to the date that is 120 days prior to such request if such Lender or such Issuing Bank knew or could reasonably have been expected to know of the circumstances giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of the fact that such circumstances would result in a claim for increased compensation by reason of such increased costs or reductions; provided further that the foregoing limitation shall not apply to any increased costs or reductions arising out of the retroactive application of any Change in Law within such 120-day period. The protection of this Section shall be available to each Lender and each Issuing Bank regardless of any possible contention of the invalidity or inapplicability of the Change in Law that shall have occurred or been imposed.

SECTION 2.15. Change in Legality. (a) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, if any Change in Law shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain any Eurocurrency Loan or any Term SOFR Loan or to give effect to its obligations as contemplated hereby with respect to any Eurocurrency Loan or any Term SOFR Loan, then, by written notice to the applicable Borrowers and to the Administrative Agent:

(i) such Lender may declare that Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, will not thereafter (for the duration of such unlawfulness) be made by such Lender hereunder (or be continued for additional Interest Periods) and Daily Rate Loans will not thereafter (for such duration) be converted into Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, whereupon any request for a Eurocurrency Borrowing or Term SOFR Borrowing (or to convert a Daily Rate Borrowing to a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing or to continue a Eurocurrency Borrowing or a Term SOFR Borrowing for an additional Interest Period), as applicable, shall, as to such Lender only, be deemed a request for a Daily Rate Loan (or a request to continue a Daily Rate Loan as such for an additional Interest Period or to convert a Eurocurrency Loan or a Term SOFR Loan into a Daily Rate Loan, as the case may be), unless such declaration shall be subsequently withdrawn; and

(ii) such Lender may require that all outstanding Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, made by it be converted to Daily Rate Loans, in which event all such Loans shall be automatically converted to Daily Rate Loans as of the effective date of such notice as provided in paragraph (b) below.

In the event any Lender shall exercise its rights under (i) or (ii) above, all payments and prepayments of principal that would otherwise have been applied to repay the Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, that would have been made by such Lender or the converted Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, of such Lender shall instead be applied to repay the Daily Rate Loans made by such Lender in lieu of, or resulting from the conversion of, such Loans.

(b) For purposes of this Section 2.15, a notice to the applicable Borrowers by any Lender shall be effective as to each Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan, as applicable, made by such Lender, if lawful, on the last day of the Interest Period then

applicable to such Loan; in all other cases such notice shall be effective on the date of receipt by such Borrowers.

SECTION 2.16. Breakage. The applicable Borrowers shall indemnify each Lender against any loss or expense that such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) any event, other than a default by such Lender in the performance of its obligations hereunder, which results in (i) such Lender receiving or being deemed to receive any amount on account of the principal of any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan prior to the end of the Interest Period in effect therefor, (ii) the conversion of any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan to a Daily Rate Loan, or the conversion of the Interest Period with respect to any Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, in each case other than on the last day of the Interest Period in effect therefor, or (iii) any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan to be made by such Lender (including any Eurocurrency Loan or Term SOFR Loan to be made pursuant to a conversion or continuation under Section 2.10) not being made after notice of such Loan shall have been given by the applicable Borrower hereunder (any of the events referred to in this clause (a) being called a “Breakage Event”) or (b) any default in the making of any payment or prepayment of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans after a Borrower has given notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. In the case of any Breakage Event, such loss shall include an amount equal to the excess, as reasonably determined by such Lender, of (i) its cost of obtaining funds for the Loan that is the subject of such Breakage Event for the period from the date of such Breakage Event to the last day of the Interest Period in effect (or that would have been in effect) for such Loan over (ii) the amount of interest likely to be realized by such Lender (as reasonably determined by such Lender) in redeploying the funds released or not utilized by reason of such Breakage Event for such period. A reasonably detailed certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts which such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16 shall be delivered to the applicable Borrowers and shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

SECTION 2.17. Pro Rata Treatment. Subject to the express provisions of this Agreement which require, or permit, differing payments to be made to non-Defaulting Lenders as opposed to Defaulting Lenders, and except for prepayments of Term Loans made in accordance with Section 2.12(b) and as required under Section 2.15, each Borrowing, each payment or prepayment of principal of any Borrowing, each payment of interest on the Loans, each payment of the FacilityUnused Commitment Fees, each reduction of the Term Loan Commitments or the Revolving Credit Commitments and each conversion of any Borrowing to or continuation of any Borrowing as a Borrowing of any Type shall be allocated pro rata among the Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Commitments (or, if such Commitments shall have expired or been terminated, in accordance with the respective principal amounts of their outstanding Loans). Each Lender agrees that in computing such Xxxxxx’s portion of any Borrowing to be made hereunder, the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, round each Lender’s percentage of such Borrowing to the next higher or lower whole Dollar or Designated Foreign Currency amount.

SECTION 2.18. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that if it shall, through the exercise of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against any Borrower or any other Loan Party, or pursuant to a secured claim under Section 506 of Title 11 of the United States Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim, received by such Lender under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law or otherwise, or by any other means, obtain payment (voluntary or involuntary) in respect of any Loan or Loans or L/C Disbursement as a result of which the unpaid principal portion of its Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements shall be proportionately less than the unpaid principal portion of the Loans and participations in L/C Disbursements of any other Lender, it shall be deemed simultaneously to have purchased from such other Lender at face value, and shall promptly pay to such other Lender the purchase price for, a participation in the Loans and L/C Exposure of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of the Loans and L/C Exposure and participations in

Loans and L/C Exposure held by each Lender shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure then outstanding as the principal amount of its Loans and L/C Exposure prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event was to the principal amount of all Loans and L/C Exposure outstanding prior to such exercise of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim or other event; provided, however, that (i) if any such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be made pursuant to this Section 2.18 and the payment giving rise thereto shall thereafter be recovered, such purchase or purchases or adjustments shall be rescinded to the extent of such recovery and the purchase price or prices or adjustment restored without interest, and (ii) the provisions of this Section 2.18 shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by any Loan Party pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including prepayments received pursuant to Section 2.12(b)) or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale of a participation in any of its Loans to any assignee or participant. The Borrowers and Holdings expressly consent to the foregoing arrangements and agree that any Lender holding a participation in a Loan or L/C Disbursement deemed to have been so purchased may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by any Borrower and Holdings to such Lender by reason thereof as fully as if such Lender had made a Loan directly to such Borrower in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 2.19. Payments. (a) The Borrowers shall make each payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any L/C Disbursement or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder and under any other Loan Document (i) with respect to any Term SOFR Borrowings denominated in Dollars or ABR Borrowings not later than 12:00 (noon), New York City time and (ii) with respect to any Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency or FBR Borrowings, not later than 8:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date when due in immediately available funds, without setoff, defense or counterclaim. Each such payment (other than Issuing Bank Fees, which shall be paid directly to the applicable Issuing Bank) shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at: in the case of the Administrative Agent, Xxxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000. All payments received by the Administrative Agent after (i) 12:00 (noon), New York City time, with respect to Term SOFR Borrowings denominated in Dollars or ABR Borrowings, or (ii) 8:00 a.m., New York City time, with respect to Eurocurrency Borrowings denominated in any Designated Foreign Currency or FBR Borrowings, shall be deemed received on the next Business Day (in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion) and any applicable interest shall continue to accrue. The Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to each Lender any payments received by the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Xxxxxx.

(b) Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, whenever any payment (including principal of or interest on any Borrowing or any Fees or other amounts) hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall become due, or otherwise would occur, on a day that is not a Business Day, such payment may be made on the next succeeding Business Day, and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or Fees, if applicable.

(c) The obligations of the U.S. Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several. The obligations of the Revolving Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several. The obligations of the European Borrowers hereunder and under the other Loan Documents shall be joint and several.

SECTION 2.20. Taxes. (a) Except as required by applicable law (as modified by the practice then in effect of any Governmental Authority), any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of a Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without withholding or deduction for any Taxes; provided that if any Borrower

or any other Loan Party shall be required by applicable law to withhold or deduct any Taxes from such payments, then (i) such Borrower or such other Loan Party shall make such withholdings or deductions, (ii) such Borrower or such other Loan Party shall pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Taxes are Indemnified Taxes, the amount payable by the applicable Borrower or any Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that, net of all required withholdings and deductions for Indemnified Taxes (including withholdings and deductions applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 2.20), the applicable Recipient receives the amount it would have received had no such withholdings or deductions, as the case may be, been made.

(b) In addition, the applicable Borrower or any Loan Party shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrowers and any Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes paid by the applicable Recipient on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of any Borrower or any other Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section) and any penalties, interest and 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 setting forth the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrowers by a Recipient on behalf of itself or another Recipient shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes by any Borrower or any other Loan Party to a Governmental Authority, such Borrower or such 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.

(e) Each Recipient shall deliver to any Borrower or any other Loan Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by such Borrower, such other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law, if any, as will (i) permit payments hereunder or under any other Loan Document to be made without, or at a reduced rate of, withholding Tax or (ii) enable such Borrower, such other Loan Party or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Recipient is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements, but only, in each case, if such Recipient is legally entitled to do so.

(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.20, in the case of any withholding Tax, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation shall not be required if, in the Recipient’s judgment, such completion, execution or submission would subject such Recipient to any material, unreimbursed out-of-pocket cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Recipient; provided, however, that this Section 2.20(f) shall not apply to documentation described in Section 2.20(g)(i)-(v).

(g) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing hereunder or the provisions of any other Loan Document, each U.S. Recipient shall deliver to the U.S. Borrowers and Administrative Agent two copies (or such other number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Person becomes a U.S. Recipient, as the case may be, under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when a previously provided form becomes obsolete or invalid, but only if such Person is legally entitled to do so), of whichever of the following is applicable:

(i) in the case of a U.S. Recipient claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States of America is a party, (A) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or any Loan Document, IRS Form W‑8BEN or W‑8BEN‑E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (B) with respect to all other payments under this Agreement or any Loan Document, IRS Form W‑8BEN or W‑8BEN‑E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

(ii) in the case of a U.S. Recipient for whom payments under this Agreement or any Loan Document constitute income that is effectively connected with such U.S. Recipient’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States, duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, also deliver two duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY certifying that it is a “U.S. branch” and that the payments it receives for the account of others are not effectively connected with the conduct of its trade or business in the United States and that it is using such form as evidence of its agreement with the U.S. Borrowers to be treated as a U.S. person with respect to such payments (and the U.S. Borrowers and Administrative Agent agree to so treat the Administrative Agent as a U.S. person with respect to such payments), with the effect that the U.S. Borrowers can make payments to the Administrative Agent without deduction or withholding of any Taxes imposed by the United States,

(iii) in the case of a U.S. Recipient claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate to the effect that such U.S. Recipient is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code or (D) conducting a trade or business in the United States with which the relevant interest payments are effectively connected and (y) duly completed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN, or W‑8BEN‑E, as applicable;

(iv) in the case of a U.S. Recipient that is a U.S. person within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code, duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9;

(v) to the extent a U.S. Recipient is not a U.S. person within the meaning of section 7701(a)(30) of the Code and is not the beneficial owner of payments made under this Agreement or any Loan Document (for example, where such U.S. Recipient is a non-U.S. partnership), (A) an IRS Form W-8IMY on behalf of itself and (B) the relevant forms prescribed in clauses (i), (ii), (iii), (iv) and (vi) of this Section 2.20(e) that would be required of each such beneficial owner if such beneficial owner were a U.S. Recipient; or

(vi) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from, or a reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the U.S. Borrowers

or the Administrative Agent to determine the amount of withholding or deduction, if any, required to be made.

(h) If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes (including, for purposes of this Section 2.20(h), Taxes indemnified pursuant to Section 2.14) as to which it has been indemnified by any Borrower or any other Loan Party or with respect to which any Borrower or any other Loan Party has paid additional amounts pursuant to Section 2.14 or this Section 2.20, as applicable, it shall pay to such Borrower or such other Loan Party, as applicable, an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or such additional amounts paid, by any Borrower or any other Loan Party under Sections 2.14 or 2.20, as applicable, with respect to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of such Recipient and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to the amount of such refund as corresponds to the Indemnified Taxes giving rise to such refund), provided that such Borrower or such other Loan Party, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to such Borrower or such other Loan Party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its Tax Returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to any Borrower or any other Person.

(i) The Lenders and Issuing Banks (including any successors or assigns thereof) shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent for the full amount of any Excluded Taxes payable by the Administrative Agent with respect to this Agreement, any Loan Document or any payment by any Borrower or any other Loan Party under this Agreement and any Loan Document and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Excluded Taxes were correctly imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority, except to the extent that any such amount or payment is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent. The indemnity under this paragraph (i) shall be paid within 30 days after the Administrative Agent delivers to the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank a certificate stating the amount of Excluded Taxes so payable by the Administrative Agent. Such certificate shall be conclusive of the amount so payable absent manifest error.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any Loan Document, if any Lender assigns, participates or transfers any of its rights or obligations under this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.04 or any Lender changes its lending branch, neither the Borrowers nor any other Loan Party shall make any greater payments pursuant to this Section 2.20, as a consequence of such assignment, participation, transfer or change, than would have been payable in the absence of such assignment, participation, transfer or change; provided that this Section 2.20(j) shall not apply to changes made pursuant to Section 2.21(a).

(k) If a payment made to a Recipient would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Recipient were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Recipient shall deliver to the Withholding Agent, at the time or times prescribed by applicable law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Withholding 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 Withholding Agent as may be necessary for the Withholding Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Recipient has complied with such Recipient’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. For purposes of this Section 2.20(k), FATCA shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the 2016 Restatement Date.

(l) For purposes of this Section 2.20, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

SECTION 2.21. Assignment of Commitments Under Certain Circumstances; Duty to Mitigate. (a) In the event (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a certificate requesting compensation pursuant to Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15, (iii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.20, (iv) any Lender refuses to consent to (x) any Loan Modification Offer or (y) any other amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Document requested by the Borrowers that, in the case of clause (y), requires the consent of a greater percentage of Lenders than the Required Lenders (or, in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification described in clause (B) of the second proviso to Section 9.08(b), greater than a majority in interest of the affected Class of Lenders) and such Loan Modification Offer or other amendment, waiver or modification is consented to by the Required Lenders (or, in the case of a Loan Modification Offer or any amendment, waiver or modification described in clause (B) of the second proviso to Section 9.08(b), a majority in interest of the affected Class) (each such Lender, a “Non-Consenting Lender”) or (v) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then, in each case, the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort (including with respect to the processing and recordation fee referred to in Section 9.04(b)), upon notice to such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent, either (A) require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to transfer and assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 9.04), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement (or, in the case of clause (iv) or (v) above, all of its interests, rights and obligations with respect to the Class of Loans or Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, amendment, waiver or other modification or in respect of which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender) to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such assigned obligations and, with respect to clause (iv) above, shall consent to such requested amendment, waiver or other modification of any Loan Documents (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment) or (B) so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, terminate the Commitments of such Lender or such Issuing Bank (or in the case of clause (iv) or (v) above, the Commitments of such Lender of the Class of Commitments that is the subject of the related consent, amendment, waiver or other modification or in respect of which such Lender is a Defaulting Lender), if applicable, and (1) in the case of a Lender (other than an Issuing Bank), repay all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Lender relating to the Loans and participations held by such Lender as of such termination date and (2) in the case of an Issuing Bank, repay all obligations of the Borrowers owing to such Issuing Bank relating to the Loans and participations held by such Issuing Bank as of such termination date and cancel or backstop on terms satisfactory to such Issuing Bank any Letters of Credit issued by it; provided that (x) in the case of clause (A) above, such assignment shall not conflict with any law, rule or regulation or order of any court or other Governmental Authority having jurisdiction, (y) in the case of clause (A) above, the U.S. Borrowers or the European Borrowers, as applicable, shall have received the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent (and, if any Revolving Credit Commitment is being assigned, of each applicable Issuing Bank), which consents shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and (z) the U.S. Borrowers or the European Borrowers, as applicable, or such assignee shall have paid to the affected Lender or the affected Issuing Bank in immediately available funds an amount equal to the sum of the principal of and interest accrued to the date of such payment on

the outstanding Loans or L/C Disbursements of the applicable Class of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, respectively, plus (except, in the case of a Defaulting Lender, any Fees not required to be paid to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to the express provisions of this Agreement) all Fees and other amounts accrued for the account of such Lender or such Issuing Bank hereunder with respect thereto (including any amounts under Sections 2.14 and 2.16); provided further that in the case of any such termination of Commitments with respect to a Non-Consenting Lender, such termination shall be sufficient (together with all other consenting Lenders (after giving effect to any other Commitments to be terminated, transferred or assigned under this Section 2.21)) to cause the adoption of the applicable consent, amendment, waiver or other modification of the Loan Documents; provided further that, if prior to any such transfer and assignment or termination, as the case may be, the circumstances or event that resulted in such Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s claim for compensation under Section 2.14, notice under Section 2.15 or the amounts paid pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, cease to cause such Lender or such Issuing Bank to suffer increased costs or reductions in amounts received or receivable or reduction in return on capital, or cease to have the consequences specified in Section 2.15, or cease to result in amounts being payable under Section 2.20, as the case may be (including as a result of any action taken by such Lender or such Issuing Bank pursuant to paragraph (b) below), or if such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall waive its right to claim further compensation under Section 2.14 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall withdraw its notice under Section 2.15 or shall waive its right to further payments under Section 2.20 in respect of such circumstances or event or shall consent to the proposed amendment, waiver, consent or other modification or shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender, as the case may be, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall not thereafter be required to make any such transfer and assignment hereunder and the Borrowers shall not thereafter be permitted to so terminate the Commitment of such Lender or such Issuing Bank. Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby grants to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable power of attorney (which power is coupled with an interest) to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Lender or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, as assignor, any Assignment and Acceptance necessary to effectuate any assignment of such Xxxxxx’s or such Issuing Bank’s interests hereunder in the circumstances contemplated by this Section 2.21(a).

(b) If (i) any Lender or any Issuing Bank shall request compensation under Section 2.14, (ii) any Lender or any Issuing Bank delivers a notice described in Section 2.15 or (iii) any Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Issuing Bank or any Governmental Authority on account of any Lender or any Issuing Bank, pursuant to Section 2.20, then such Lender or such Issuing Bank shall use reasonable efforts (which shall not require such Lender or such Issuing Bank to incur an unreimbursed loss or unreimbursed cost or expense or otherwise take any action inconsistent with its internal policies or legal or regulatory restrictions or suffer any disadvantage or burden deemed by it to be significant) (x) to file any certificate or document reasonably requested in writing by the Borrowers or (y) to assign its rights and delegate and transfer its obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or Affiliates, if such filing or assignment would reduce its claims for compensation under Section 2.14 or enable it to withdraw its notice pursuant to Section 2.15 or would reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20, as the case may be, in the future. Each Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender or any Issuing Bank in connection with any such filing or assignment, delegation and transfer.

SECTION 2.22. Letters of Credit. (a) General. Any Revolving Borrower may request the issuance of a Letter of Credit for its own account or for the account of any Wholly Owned Subsidiary of Holdings (in which case the applicable Borrower and such Wholly Owned Subsidiary shall be co-applicants with respect to such Letter of Credit), in a form reasonably acceptable to the applicable Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time while the L/C Commitments remain in effect as set forth in Section

2.09(a). Any Letter of Credit shall be denominated in Dollars or, at the election of the Borrowers, in a Designated Foreign Currency. This Section shall not be construed to impose any obligation upon any Issuing Bank to issue any Letter of Credit that is inconsistent with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.22 or elsewhere in this Agreement, in the event that (x) a Revolving Credit Lender is a Defaulting Lender and (y) the reallocation described in Section 2.22(l) cannot or can only be partially effected, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit unless such Issuing Bank has entered into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to it and the applicable Borrower to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participation in Letters of Credit by all such Defaulting Lenders that has not been reallocated as set forth in Section 2.22(l), including by cash collateralizing each such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the applicable L/C Exposure.

(b) Notice of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. In order to request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or to amend, renew or extend an existing Letter of Credit), the applicable Borrower shall hand deliver or fax to the applicable Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) below), the amount of such Letter of Credit and the currency in which such Letter of Credit is to be denominated, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare such Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended only if, and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the applicable Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that, after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (i) the L/C Exposure shall not exceed $175,000,000, (ii) the portion of the L/C Exposure attributable to Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank shall not exceed the L/C Commitment of such Issuing Bank (unless otherwise agreed by such Issuing Bank), (iii) the Revolving Credit Exposure of any Lender shall not exceed such Xxxxxx’s Revolving Credit Commitment and (iv) the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure shall not exceed the Total Revolving Credit Commitment.

(c) Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire at the close of business on the earlier of the date one year after the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit and the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, except to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank at the time of issuance or renewal thereof, unless such Letter of Credit expires by its terms on an earlier date; provided, however, that a Letter of Credit may, upon the request of the applicable Borrower, include a provision whereby such Letter of Credit shall be renewed automatically for additional consecutive periods of 12 months or less (but not beyond the date that is five Business Days prior to the Revolving Credit Maturity Date, except to the extent cash collateralized or backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the relevant Issuing Bank at the time of issuance or renewal thereof) unless the applicable Issuing Bank notifies the beneficiary thereof at least 30 days (or such longer period as may be specified in such Letter of Credit) prior to the then-applicable expiration date that such Letter of Credit will not be renewed.

(d) Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Revolving Credit Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Revolving Credit Lender, and each such Revolving Credit

Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit, payable in Dollars, equal to its applicable Pro Rata Percentage of the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit, effective upon the issuance of such Letter of Credit (and each Revolving Credit Lender shall be deemed to have acquired a participation pursuant to this paragraph (d) in each Existing Letter of Credit on the 2016 Restatement Date). In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Revolving Credit Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the applicable Issuing Bank, such Xxxxxx’s Pro Rata Percentage of each L/C Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the applicable Borrower (or, if applicable, another party pursuant to its obligations under any other Loan Document) forthwith on the date due as provided in Section 2.02(f). Each Revolving Credit Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or an Event of Default, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such L/C Disbursement not later than the Business Day after such Borrower shall have received notice from such Issuing Bank that payment of such draft will be made.

(f) Obligations Absolute. Each Borrower’s obligation to reimburse L/C Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) above shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, under any and all circumstances whatsoever, and irrespective of:

(i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document, or any term or provision therein;

(ii) any amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from all or any of the provisions of any Letter of Credit or any Loan Document;

(iii) the existence of any claim, setoff, defense or other right that such Borrower, any other party guaranteeing, or otherwise obligated with, such Borrower, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof or any other Person may at any time have against the beneficiary under any Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Bank, Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection with this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other related or unrelated agreement or transaction;

(iv) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent, invalid or insufficient in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect;

(v) payment by the applicable Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; and

(vi) any other act or omission to act or delay of any kind of the applicable Issuing Bank, the Lenders, the Administrative Agent or any other Person or 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 such Xxxxxxxx’s obligations hereunder.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, it is expressly understood and agreed that the absolute and unconditional obligation of the Borrowers hereunder to reimburse L/C Disbursements will not be excused by the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the applicable Issuing Bank. However, the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse such Issuing Bank from liability to any Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to consequential damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by such Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct in determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. It is further understood and agreed that the applicable Issuing Bank may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary and, in making any payment under any Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (i) such Issuing Bank’s exclusive reliance on the documents presented to it under such Letter of Credit as to any and all matters set forth therein, including reliance on the amount of any draft presented under such Letter of Credit, whether or not the amount due to the beneficiary thereunder equals the amount of such draft and whether or not any document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be insufficient in any respect, if such document on its face appears to be in order, and whether or not any other statement or any other document presented pursuant to such Letter of Credit proves to be forged or invalid or any statement therein proves to be inaccurate or untrue in any respect whatsoever and (ii) any noncompliance in any immaterial respect of the documents presented under such Letter of Credit with the terms thereof shall, in each case, be deemed not to constitute gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Bank.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. Such Issuing Bank shall as promptly as possible give telephonic notification, confirmed by fax or e-mail, to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make an L/C Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve such Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Revolving Credit Lenders with respect to any such L/C Disbursement.

(h) Interim Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any L/C Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank, then, unless the applicable Borrower shall reimburse such L/C Disbursement in full on such date, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest for the account of such Issuing Bank, for each day from and including the date of such L/C Disbursement, to but excluding the earlier of the date of payment by such Borrower or the date on which interest shall commence to accrue thereon as provided in Section 2.02(f), at (i) if such amount is denominated in Dollars, the rate per annum that would apply to such amount if such amount were a Daily Rate Revolving Loan, (ii) if such amount is denominated in Euro, the Foreign Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin for Daily Rate Revolving Loans at such time and (iii) if such amount is denominated in a Designated Foreign Currency other than Euro, the interest rate determined by such Issuing Bank to be the average rate (rounded upwards, if necessary, to the next 1/16 of 1%) at which overnight deposits in such Designated Foreign Currency are obtainable by such Issuing Bank on such date in the relevant interbank market plus the Applicable Margin for Eurocurrency Revolving Loans at such time.

(i) Resignation or Removal of an Issuing Bank. Any Issuing Bank may resign at any time by giving prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, and with the prior written consent of Holdings, and may be removed at any time by the Borrowers by notice to such Issuing Bank, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders; provided that notwithstanding the foregoing, any Issuing Bank may resign upon not less than 90 days prior notice by certifying in writing to the Administrative Agent and Holdings (without any consent requirement from either party) that such Issuing Bank no longer issues Letters of Credit of the type contemplated by this Agreement. Upon the acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a Lender that shall agree to serve as a successor Issuing Bank, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all the interests, rights and obligations of such retiring Issuing Bank. At the time such removal or resignation shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all accrued and unpaid fees pursuant to Section 2.05(cd). The acceptance of any appointment as an Issuing Bank hereunder by a successor Xxxxxx shall be evidenced by an agreement entered into by such successor, in a form satisfactory to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such successor Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of such previous Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) references herein and in the other Loan Documents to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the resignation or removal of an Issuing Bank hereunder (including pursuant to Section 2.21(a)), the retiring Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such resignation or removal, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Borrowers shall on the Business Day they receive notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit) thereof and of the amount to be deposited, deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders, an amount in cash equal to the L/C Exposure as of such date; provided that the obligation to deposit such cash will become effective immediately, and such deposit will become immediately payable in immediately available funds, without demand or notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default described in Article VII(g) or Article VII(h). Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and performance of the Bank Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits in Permitted Investments, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall (i) automatically be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Bank for L/C Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, (ii) be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrowers for the L/C Exposure at such time and (iii) if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of Revolving Credit Lenders holding participations in outstanding Letters of Credit representing greater than 50% of the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit), be applied to satisfy the Bank Obligations. If any Borrower is required to

provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to such Borrower within three Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or waived.

(k) Additional Issuing Banks. The Borrowers may, at any time and from time to time with the consent of the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and such Lender, designate one or more additional Lenders to act as an issuing bank under the terms of this Agreement, subject to reporting requirements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent with respect to issuances, amendments, extensions and terminations of Letters of Credit by such additional issuing bank. Any Lender designated as an issuing bank pursuant to this paragraph (k) shall be deemed to be an “Issuing Bank” (in addition to being a Lender) in respect of Letters of Credit issued or to be issued by such Lender, and, with respect to such Letters of Credit, such term shall thereafter apply to the other Issuing Bank and such Lender.

(l) Defaulting Lenders. If any Revolving Credit Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective applicable Pro Rata Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Commitments), but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed such Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Commitment. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Xxxxxx having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Xxxxxx’s increased exposure following such reallocation. If the reallocation described above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the applicable Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, enter into arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Issuing Bank and the applicable Borrowers to eliminate such Issuing Bank’s risk with respect to the participations in Letters of Credit by all Defaulting Lenders to the extent not so reallocated, including by cash collateralizing each such Defaulting Lender’s Pro Rata Percentage of the L/C Exposures.

(m) Assignment of L/C Commitments. (i) The assignment by any Revolving Credit Lender that is an Issuing Bank of its Revolving Credit Commitment shall constitute the assignment by it and the assumption by the assignee of such portion of the assignor’s L/C Commitment that is set forth in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance, which may not exceed a ratable portion of the assignor’s L/C Commitment. The assignee thereof shall, from and after the date of effectiveness of such assignment, constitute an Issuing Bank hereunder and shall have the L/C Commitment set forth in the applicable Assignment and Acceptance and recorded by the Administrative Agent in the Register. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrowers of any such assignment of an L/C Commitment.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that any Letter of Credit issued by an Issuing Bank remains outstanding following the assignment by such Issuing Bank of its L/C Commitment in accordance with this Section 2.22(m) and Section 9.04, such Issuing Bank shall continue to be an Issuing Bank hereunder with respect to such Letter of Credit for so long as such Letter of Credit shall remain outstanding.

(n) Reporting By Issuing Banks. On the last Business Day of each month, each Issuing Bank shall notify the Administrative Agent, by fax or e-mail, of all then outstanding Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank (which notification shall specify, with respect to each such Letter of Credit, the face amount, the beneficiary and the expiration date thereof).

SECTION 2.23. Incremental Term Loans and Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments. (a) Any Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent, on one or more occasions during the term of this Agreement request Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, as applicable, in an aggregate amount not to exceed the Incremental Facility Amount in effect at such time from one or more Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, all of which must be Eligible Assignees. Such notice shall set forth (i) the identity of the Borrower or Borrowers to which the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments shall be extended, (ii) the amount of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments being requested (which shall be in a minimum increment equal to the Borrowing Multiple and a minimum amount of the Borrowing Minimum or equal to the remaining Incremental Amount), (iii) if the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are to be provided in a Designated Foreign Currency, the applicable currency, (iv) the date on which such Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than 10 Business Days nor more than 60 days after the date of such notice unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent), (v) in the case of Incremental Term Loan Commitments, whether such Incremental Term Loan Commitments are commitments to make additional U.S. Term Loans of any Class, commitments to make additional European Term Loans or commitments to make term loans with terms different from the Term Loans (“Other Term Loans”), and (vi) in the case of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, whether such Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments are Revolving Credit Commitments or commitments to make Revolving Loans on terms, to Borrowers or in currencies different from the Revolving Loans (“Other Revolving Loans”, and such commitments, “Other Revolving Credit Commitments”). Except with respect to the Specified Incremental Revolving Amount, the Borrowers may elect to request Commitments and incur Indebtedness under this Section 2.23 in reliance on the Incremental Ratio Amount prior to the Incremental Dollar Amount and the Borrower may incur Indebtedness pursuant to clauses (i), (l), (w) or (x) of Section 6.01 and in reliance on the Incremental Dollar Amount, and in the event that such Indebtedness is concurrently incurred pursuant to both the (i) Incremental Ratio Amount or clauses (i), (l), (w) or (x) of Section 6.01 and (ii) the Incremental Dollar Amount, the amount of such Indebtedness incurred pursuant to the Incremental Dollar Amount will be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Total Secured Leverage Ratio or the Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio in connection with the incurrence of such Indebtedness pursuant to the Incremental Ratio Amount or pursuant to clauses (i), (l), (w) or (x) of Section 6.01.

(b) The applicable Borrower or Borrowers may seek Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments from existing Lenders (each of which shall be entitled to agree or decline to participate in its sole discretion) and additional banks, financial institutions and other institutional lenders who will become Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders, as applicable, in connection therewith. The applicable Borrower or Borrowers and each Incremental Term Lender and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lender, as applicable, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Loan Commitment and/or the Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment of such Person. The terms and provisions of (x) the Incremental Term Loans shall be identical to those of the Term Loans of the applicable Class and (y) Incremental Revolving Credit

Commitments shall be identical to those of the Revolving Credit Commitments of the applicable Class, in each case except as otherwise set forth herein or in the Incremental Assumption Agreement. Without the prior written consent of the Required Lenders, (i) the final maturity date of any Other Revolving Loans shall be no earlier than the Revolving Credit Maturity Date with respect to any Class of Revolving Loans, (ii) [reserved], (iii) in the case of Other Term Loans incurred on or prior to the date that is 18 months after the 2016 Restatement Date, if the initial yield on such Other Term Loans (as determined by the Administrative Agent to be equal to the sum of (x) the margin above the EURIBO Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR on such Other Term Loans (which shall be increased by the amount that any “floor” applicable to such Other Term Loans on the date such Other Term Loans are made would exceed the EURIBO Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR, as applicable, that would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) and (y) if such Other Term Loans are initially made at a discount or the Lenders making the same receive a fee directly or indirectly from Holdings or any Subsidiary for doing so (the amount of such discount or fee, expressed as a percentage of the Other Term Loans, being referred to herein as “OID”), the amount of such OID divided by the lesser of (1) the average life to maturity of such Other Term Loans and (2) four) exceeds by more than 50 basis points the sum of (A) the margin then in effect for Term Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable, of any Class (which, with respect to the Term Loans of any such Class, shall be the sum of the Applicable Margin then in effect for such Term Loans of such Class increased by the amount that any “floor” applicable to such Loans of such Class on the date such Other Term Loans are made would exceed the EURIBO Rate or the Adjusted Term SOFR, as applicable that would be in effect for a three-month Interest Period commencing on such date) plus (B) the amount of OID initially paid in respect of the Term Loans of such Class divided by the lesser of (x) the average life to maturity of the Term Loans of such Class as in effect at the time such Term Loans were made as determined by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion and (y) four (the amount of such excess above 50 basis points being referred to herein as the “Yield Differential”), then the Applicable Margin (or, in the case of that portion, if any, of the Yield Differential resulting from the “floor” applicable to such Other Term Loans being greater than that applicable to such Class of Eurocurrency Loans or Term SOFR Loans, as applicable on the date such Other Term Loans are made, at the request of the Borrowers and in the discretion of the Administrative Agent, the “floor”) then in effect for each such affected Class of Term Loans shall automatically be increased by the Yield Differential (or relevant portion thereof), effective upon the making of the Other Term Loans, and (iv) the Applicable Margin with respect to any Incremental Revolving Loans shall be equal to the Applicable Margin for the existing Revolving Loans; provided that the Applicable Margin of the existing Revolving Loans may be increased to equal the Applicable Margin for such Incremental Revolving Loans to satisfy the requirements of this clause (iv). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Assumption Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Loan Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment and the Incremental Term Loans and/or Incremental Revolving Loans evidenced thereby, and the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may revise this Agreement to evidence such amendments.

(c) Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the Required Lenders, no Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment shall become effective under this Section 2.23 unless (i) on the date of such

effectiveness, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be satisfied and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate to that effect dated such date and executed by a Financial Officer of the applicable Borrower or Borrowers, (ii) except as otherwise specified in the applicable Incremental Assumption Agreement, the Administrative Agent shall have received (with sufficient copies for each of the Incremental Term Lenders and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders) legal opinions, board resolutions and other closing certificates reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent and consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02 of the Original Credit Agreement (or, if the proceeds of any Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment will be used to consummate a Permitted Acquisition, Section 4 of Amendment No. 6), (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received from the applicable Borrower or Borrowers all fees and other amounts due and payable in respect of the Incremental Term Loan Commitments and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments, including, to the extent invoiced, reimbursement or payment of all out-of-pocket expenses required to be reimbursed or paid by such Borrower or Borrowers hereunder or under any other Loan Document and (iv) except for any Incremental Revolving Commitments requested in reliance on the Specified Incremental Revolving Amount, Holdings shall be in Pro Forma Compliance after giving effect to such Incremental Term Loan Commitment and/or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment and the Loans to be made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom as if made and applied on such date; provided that to the extent the proceeds of Loans made pursuant to any Incremental Term Loan Commitment or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitment will be used to consummate a Limited Condition Acquisition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 4.01, the conditions set forth in paragraphs (b) and (c) of Section 4.01 shall be required to be satisfied, at the option of Holdings, on the date on which definitive agreements with respect to such Limited Condition Acquisition are entered into or on the effective date of such Incremental Term Loan Commitments or Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments.

(d) Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the applicable Borrower or Borrowers, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that (i) all Incremental Term Loans (other than Other Term Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term Loans on a pro rata basis and (ii) all Revolving Loans in respect of Incremental Revolving Credit Commitments (other than Other Revolving Loans), when originally made, are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis. With respect to Incremental Term Loans, this may be accomplished by converting each outstanding Term SOFR Borrowing into an ABR Term Borrowing on the date of each Incremental Term Loan. With respect to Incremental Revolving Commitments, this may be accomplished by (i) requiring the outstanding Revolving Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of a new Revolving Credit Borrowing, (ii) causing Lenders to assign portions of their outstanding Revolving Loans to Incremental Revolving Credit Lenders or (iii) any combination of the foregoing. Any conversion of Term SOFR Loans to Daily Rate Loans contemplated in the preceding two sentences shall be subject to Section 2.16. In addition, to the extent any Incremental Term Loans are not Other Term Loans, the scheduled amortization payments under Section 2.11(a)(i) or (ii), as applicable, required to be made after the making of such Incremental Term Loans shall be ratably increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans and shall be further increased for all Lenders of the applicable Class on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to which such Lenders were entitled before such recalculation.

SECTION 2.24. Loan Modification Offers. (a) Holdings may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, make one or more offers (each, a “Loan Modification Offer”) to all the Lenders of one or more Classes of Loans and/or Commitments (each Class subject to such a Loan Modification Offer, an “Affected Class”) to make one or more Permitted Amendments pursuant to procedures reasonably specified by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to Holdings. Such notice shall set forth (i) the terms and conditions of the requested Permitted Amendment and (ii) the date on which such Permitted Amendment is requested to become effective. Permitted Amendments shall become effective only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Lenders of the Affected Class that accept the applicable Loan Modification Offer (such Lenders, the “Accepting Lenders”) and, in the case of any Accepting Lender, only with respect to such Xxxxxx’s Loans and Commitments of such Affected Class as to which such Xxxxxx’s acceptance has been made.

(b) Holdings, each Loan Party and each Accepting Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Loan Modification Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the acceptance of the Permitted Amendments and the terms and conditions thereof. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Loan Modification Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Loan Modification Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Permitted Amendment evidenced thereby and only with respect to the Loans and Commitments of the Accepting Lenders of the Affected Class. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Permitted Amendment shall become effective under this Section 2.24 unless the Administrative Agent, to the extent so reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, shall have received legal opinions, board resolutions and/or an officer’s certificate consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 4.02(a) and (c) of the Original Credit Agreement.

SECTION 2.25. Specified Refinancing Facilities. (a) The applicable Borrowers may, from time to time, add one or more new term loan facilities (the “Specified Refinancing Term Loan Facilities”) and new revolving credit facilities (the “Specified Refinancing Revolving Facilities”, and, together with the Specified Refinancing Term Loan Facilities, the “Specified Refinancing Facilities”) to the Credit Facilities to refinance (i) all or any portion of any Class of Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement or (ii) all or any portion of any Class of Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Credit Commitments) under this Agreement; provided that (i) the Specified Refinancing Facilities will not be guaranteed by any Person other than the Guarantors, and will be secured on a pari passu basis by the same Collateral securing the Bank Obligations, (ii) the Specified Refinancing Term Loan Facilities and any term loans drawn thereunder (the “Specified Refinancing Term Loans”) and Specified Refinancing Revolving Facilities and revolving loans drawn thereunder (the “Specified Refinancing Revolving Loans” and, together with the Specified Refinancing Term Loans, the “Specified Refinancing Loans”) shall rank pari passu in right of payment with the Bank Obligations, (iii) no Specified Refinancing Amendment may provide for any Specified Refinancing Facility or any Specified Refinancing Loans to be secured by any assets that do not also secure the Bank Obligations, (iv) the Specified Refinancing Facilities will have such pricing, amortization (subject to clause (vi) below) and optional and mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed by the applicable Borrowers and the applicable Lenders thereof, (v) the maturity date of any Specified Refinancing Revolving Facility shall be no earlier than, and no scheduled mandatory commitment reduction in respect thereof shall be required prior to, the Maturity Date of the Class of Revolving Loans (or unused Revolving Credit Commitments) being refinanced, (vi) the maturity date and the weighted average life to maturity of any Specified Refinancing Term Loan Facility shall be no earlier than or shorter than, as the case may be, the Maturity Date of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced or the remaining

weighted average life to maturity of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced, as applicable (other than an earlier maturity date and/or shorter weighted average life to maturity for customary bridge financings, which, subject to customary conditions, would either be automatically converted into or required to be exchanged for permanent financing which does not provide for an earlier maturity date or a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the Maturity Date of the Class of Term Loans being refinanced or the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Term Loans being refinanced, as applicable), (vii) the Net Cash Proceeds of such Specified Refinancing Facility shall be applied, substantially concurrently with the incurrence thereof, to the pro rata prepayment of outstanding Loans being so refinanced (and, in the case of Revolving Loans, a corresponding amount of Revolving Commitments shall be permanently reduced); and (viii) the Specified Refinancing Facilities shall not have a principal or commitment amount greater than the Loans (or commitments) (including accrued interest) being refinanced plus the aggregate amount of all fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing.

(b) Each request from the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.25 shall set forth the requested amount and proposed terms of the relevant Specified Refinancing Facility. The Specified Refinancing Facilities (or any portion thereof) may be made by any existing Lender (in its sole discretion, and any Lender that fails to respond to any such request shall be deemed to have declined such request) or by any other bank or financial institution (any such bank or other financial institution, an “Additional Specified Refinancing Lender”, and the Additional Specified Refinancing Lenders together with any existing Lender providing Specified Refinancing Facilities, the “Specified Refinancing Lenders”); provided that the consent of the Administrative Agent (to the extent such consent, if any, would be required in accordance with the definition of the term “Eligible Assignee” for an assignment of a Lender’s obligations to such Specified Refinancing Lender) and (in the case of a Specified Refinancing Revolving Facility) the consent of each Issuing Bank (in each case, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) shall be required (it being understood that any such Additional Specified Refinancing Lender that is an Affiliated Lender shall be subject to the provisions of Section 9.04(m), mutatis mutandis, to the same extent as if such Specified Refinancing Facilities and related Bank Obligations had been obtained by such Lender by way of assignment).

(c) Specified Refinancing Facilities shall become facilities under this Agreement pursuant to a Specified Refinancing Amendment to this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, executed by Holdings, the applicable Borrowers and each applicable Specified Refinancing Lender. Any Specified Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lender, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25, in each case on terms consistent with this Section 2.25.

(d) Any loans made in respect of any such Specified Refinancing Facility shall be made by creating a new Class or by an increase in the Commitments and/or Loans, as the case may be, of an existing Class.

Any Specified Refinancing Amendment may provide for the issuance of Letters of Credit for the account of the Borrowers or any Subsidiary pursuant to any Specified Refinancing Revolving Facility established thereby; provided that no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to provide any such

Letters of Credit unless it has consented (in its sole discretion) to the applicable Specified Refinancing Amendment.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Specified Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Specified Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary or appropriate to reflect the existence and terms of the Specified Refinancing Facilities incurred pursuant thereto (including the addition of such Specified Refinancing Facilities as separate Classes hereunder and treated in a manner consistent with the Credit Facilities being refinanced, including for purposes of prepayments and voting). Any Specified Refinancing Amendment may, without the consent of any Person other than the applicable Borrowers, the Administrative Agent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned) and the Lenders providing such Specified Refinancing Facilities, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrowers, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.25. In addition, if so provided in the relevant Specified Refinancing Amendment and with the consent of each Issuing Bank (not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned), participations in Letters of Credit expiring on or after the scheduled Maturity Date in respect of the respective Class of Revolving Loans or commitments shall be reallocated from Lenders holding Revolving Credit Commitments to Lenders holding commitments under Specified Refinancing Revolving Facilities in accordance with the terms of such Specified Refinancing Amendment; provided, however, that such participation interests shall, upon receipt thereof by the relevant Lenders holding commitments under such Specified Refinancing Revolving Facilities, be deemed to be participation interests in respect of such commitments under such Specified Refinancing Revolving Facilities and the terms of such participation interests (including the commission applicable thereto) shall be adjusted accordingly.

SECTION 2.26. Permitted Debt Exchanges. (a) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, pursuant to one or more offers (each, a “Permitted Debt Exchange Offer”) made from time to time by the applicable Borrowers to all Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by such Borrowers, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act)) with outstanding Term Loans of a particular Class, as selected by the applicable Borrowers, the Borrowers may from time to time following the 2016 Restatement Date consummate one or more exchanges of Term Loans of such Class for Indebtedness in the form of notes (such notes, “Permitted Debt Exchange Notes”, and each such exchange a “Permitted Debt Exchange”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied: (i) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Term Loans exchanged shall be equal to or more than the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of Permitted Debt Exchange Notes issued in exchange for such Term Loans, (ii) the aggregate principal amount (calculated on the face amount thereof) of all Term Loans exchanged by the applicable Borrowers pursuant to any Permitted Debt Exchange shall automatically be cancelled and retired by such Borrowers on the date of the settlement thereof (and, if requested by the Administrative Agent, any applicable exchanging Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Assignment and Acceptance, or such other form as may be reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, in respect thereof pursuant to which the respective Lender assigns its interest in the Term Loans being exchanged pursuant to the Permitted Debt Exchange to the applicable Borrowers for immediate cancellation), (iii) if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans (calculated on the face amount thereof) tendered by Lenders in respect of the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer (with no Lender

being permitted to tender a principal amount of Term Loans which exceeds the principal amount of the applicable Class actually held by it) shall exceed the maximum aggregate principal amount of Term Loans offered to be exchanged by the applicable Borrowers pursuant to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer, then such Borrowers shall exchange Term Loans subject to such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer tendered by such Lenders ratably up to such maximum amount based on the respective principal amounts so tendered, (iv) each such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made on a pro rata basis to the Lenders (other than any Lender that, if requested by the Borrowers, is unable to certify that it is either a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (as defined in Rule 501 under the Securities Act)) based on their respective aggregate principal amounts of outstanding Term Loans of the applicable Class, (v) all documentation in respect of such Permitted Debt Exchange shall be consistent with the foregoing and all written communications generally directed to the Lenders in connection therewith shall be in form and substance consistent with the foregoing and made in consultation with the Administrative Agent, (vi) any applicable Minimum Exchange Tender Condition shall be satisfied, (vii) the maturity date and the weighted average life to maturity of such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall be no earlier than or shorter than, as the case may be, the Maturity Date or the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Class of Term Loans subject to such exchange, as applicable (other than an earlier maturity date and/or shorter weighted average life to maturity for customary bridge financings, which, subject to customary conditions, would either be automatically converted into or required to be exchanged for permanent financing which does not provide for an earlier maturity date or a shorter weighted average life to maturity than the Maturity Date or the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the applicable Class of Term Loans, as applicable), (viii) the Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall not be guaranteed by any Person other than the Guarantors, and will be secured either on a pari passu or (at the Borrowers’ option) junior basis by the same Collateral securing the Obligations (so long as any such Permitted Debt Exchange Notes (and related Obligations) are subject to each applicable Intercreditor Agreement) or (at the Borrowers’ option) will be unsecured, (ix) the Permitted Debt Exchange Notes shall rank pari passu in right of payment with or (at the Borrowers’ option) junior to the Obligations, (x) no Permitted Debt Exchange Offer may provide for any Permitted Debt Exchange Notes to be secured by any assets that do not also secure the Obligations, (xi) the Permitted Debt Exchange Notes will have such pricing, amortization and optional and mandatory prepayment terms as may be agreed by the applicable Borrowers and the applicable Lenders thereof, (xii) to the extent such Indebtedness is subordinated, the terms thereof shall provide for customary payment subordination to the Bank Obligations under the Loan Documents as reasonably determined by the Borrowers in good faith (including no mandatory prepayments on such subordinated Indebtedness unless prepayments are first made pro rata, to the extent required hereby, to the Bank Obligations and to the extent required by the documentation governing other senior Indebtedness, such senior Indebtedness and (xiii) if secured by the Collateral, such Indebtedness (and all related obligations) shall be subject to the terms of each applicable Intercreditor Agreement.

(b) With respect to all Permitted Debt Exchanges effected by the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 2.26, (i) such Permitted Debt Exchanges (and the cancellation of the exchanged Term Loans in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 2.12 and 2.13 and (ii) such Permitted Debt Exchange Offer shall be made for not less than $20,000,000 in aggregate principal amount of Term Loans (or such lower principal amount as agreed to by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion); provided that subject to the foregoing clause (ii), the applicable Borrowers may at their election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Exchange Tender Condition”) to consummating any such Permitted Debt Exchange that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Permitted Debt Exchange Offer in the such Borrowers’ discretion) of Term Loans be tendered.

With respect to each Foreign Pension Plan, reserves have been established in the financial statements furnished to Lenders in respect of any unfunded liabilities in accordance with applicable law and prudent business practice or, where required, in accordance with ordinary accounting practices in the jurisdiction in which such Foreign Pension Plan is maintained. The aggregate unfunded liabilities with respect to such Foreign Pension Plans could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect; the present value of the aggregate accumulated benefit liabilities of all such Foreign Pension Plans (based on those assumptions used to fund each such Foreign Pension Plan) did not, as of the last annual valuation date applicable thereto, exceed the fair market value of the assets of all such Foreign Pension Plans except in such case where the underfunding could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(a) Except as set forth in Schedule 3.17 and except with respect to any other matters that, individually or in the aggregate, could not reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect, as of the 2016 Restatement Date no Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof (i) has failed to comply with any Environmental Law or to obtain, maintain or comply with any Environmental Permits, (ii) has become subject to any Environmental Liability, (iii) has received notice of any claim with respect to any Environmental Liability or (iv) knows of any reasonable basis for any Environmental Liability.

(b) Since the 2016 Restatement Date, there has been no change in the status of the matters disclosed on Schedule 3.17 that, individually or in the aggregate, has resulted in, or materially increased the likelihood of, a Material Adverse Effect.

As of the 2016 Restatement Date, such insurance is in full force and effect and all premiums that, as of the 2016 Restatement Date, are required to be paid have been duly paid. Each Loan Party and each Material Subsidiary has insurance in such amounts and covering such risks and liabilities as are in accordance with normal industry practice.

SECTION 3.19. Security Documents. (a) Subject to the Legal Reservations, the U.S. Collateral Agreement creates in favor of a Collateral Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Bank Secured Parties, a legal, valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral (as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) and the proceeds thereof and (i) with respect to all Pledged Collateral (as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) previously delivered to and in the continuing possession of a Collateral Agent, the Lien created under the U.S. Collateral Agreement constitutes, or in the case of Pledged Collateral to be delivered to, and remain in the continuing possession of, a Collateral Agent in the future, the Lien created under the U.S. Collateral Agreement will constitute, a fully perfected first priority Lien (subject to the rights of Persons pursuant to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02) on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Pledged Collateral, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, and (ii) with respect to all other Collateral (as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) (other than Intellectual Property, as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) with the previous filing of financing statements in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), or when financing statements in appropriate form are filed in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a), or other appropriate instruments are filed or other actions taken, all as described in Schedule 3.19(a), the Lien created under the U.S. Collateral Agreement constitutes or will constitute, as the case may be, a fully perfected Lien on, and security interest in, all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in such Collateral, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person, in each case other than with respect to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02.

(b) The U.S. Collateral Agreement, together with the filings made pursuant to the U.S. Collateral Agreement currently on file with the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office and the financing statements currently on file in the offices specified on Schedule 3.19(a) have created, as and to the extent provided in the U.S. Collateral Agreement, a Lien that is fully perfected on all right, title and interest of the Loan Parties in the Intellectual Property (as defined in the U.S. Collateral Agreement) in which a security interest may be perfected by filing in the United States and its territories and possessions, in each case prior and superior in right to any other Person other than with respect to Liens expressly permitted by Section 6.02. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood that recordings in the United States Patent and Trademark Office and the United States Copyright Office, as applicable, may be necessary to perfect a Lien on any U.S. patents, U.S.

patent applications, U.S. registered trademarks, U.S. trademark applications, and U.S. registered copyrights of any Loan Party that were acquired after the 2016 Restatement Date (such intellectual property, collectively the “Post-Closing IP”).

ARTICLE VIII

The Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agents

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably appoints the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agents (for purposes of this Article VIII, the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agents are referred to collectively as the “Agents”) its agent and authorizes the Agents to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to such Agent by the terms of the Loan Documents, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Agents are hereby expressly authorized to (i) execute any and all documents (including releases) with respect to the Collateral and the rights of the Secured Parties with respect thereto, as contemplated by and in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) negotiate, enforce or settle any claim, action or proceeding affecting the Lenders in their capacity as such, at the direction of the Required Lenders, which negotiation, enforcement or settlement will be binding upon each Lender. Each Bank Secured Party (other than the applicable Collateral Agent) hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to appoint and designate, on its behalf, a Collateral Agent with respect to Collateral at any time located in the Province of Quebec, Canada, including by way of appointment and designation of a fondé de pouvoir and of a depositary, mandatary and custodian, the whole with respect to taking security over such Collateral under the laws of the Province of Quebec, and take all other actions in furtherance thereof.

The institution serving as Administrative Agent and/or the Collateral Agent under any Loan Documents shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may

exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and such bank and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to and generally engage in any kind of business with Holdings, any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if it were not an Agent hereunder.

The Administrative Agent shall have no duties or obligations except those expressly set forth in the 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 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 discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby that such Agent is instructed in writing to exercise by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 9.08 or in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement), and (c) except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents, neither Agent shall have any duty to disclose, nor shall it be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to Holdings or any Subsidiary that is communicated to or obtained by the bank serving as the Administrative Agent and/or any Collateral Agent or any of their respective Affiliates in any capacity. Neither Agent shall be liable for any action taken or not taken by it 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 9.08 or in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) or in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to such Agent by Holdings, a Borrower or a Lender, and neither Agent shall be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or 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 IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to such Agent.

Each Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or sent by the proper Person. Each Agent may also rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. Each Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrowers), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

Each Agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by it. Each Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of each Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities as well as activities as Agent.

Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Administrative Agent as provided below, the Administrative Agent may resign at any time by notifying the Lenders, the Issuing Banks and the Borrowers. Upon any such resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right to appoint from among the Lenders a successor, which successor, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be subject to approval by Holdings (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and approved by Holdings (to the extent required) and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf

of the Lenders and the Issuing Banks, appoint a successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York, or an Affiliate of any such bank and, which successor, so long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, shall be subject to approval by Holdings (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed). If no successor Administrative Agent has been appointed pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence by the 30th day after the date such notice of resignation was given by the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent’s resignation shall become effective and the Required Lenders shall thereafter perform all the duties of the Administrative Agent hereunder and/or under any other Loan Document until such time, if any, as the Required Xxxxxxx appoint a successor Administrative Agent. Any such resignation by the Administrative Agent hereunder shall also constitute, to the extent applicable, its resignation as an Issuing Bank, in which case such resigning Administrative Agent (a) shall not be required to issue any further Letters of Credit hereunder and (b) shall maintain all of its rights as Issuing Bank with respect to any Letters of Credit issued by it prior to the date of such resignation. Upon the acceptance of its appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder by a successor, such successor shall 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 hereunder. The fees payable by the Borrowers to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrowers and such successor. After the Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder, the provisions of this Article and Section 9.05 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while acting as Administrative Agent.

Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Agents 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 Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Agents or any other Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement or any other Loan Document, any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

Each Revolving Credit Lender expressly acknowledges, represents and warrants that (i) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) it is engaged in making, acquiring, purchasing or holding commercial loans in the ordinary course and is entering into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party as a Revolving Credit Lender for the purpose of making, acquiring, purchasing and/or holding the commercial loans set forth herein as may be applicable to it, and not for the purpose of investing in the general performance or operations of Holdings, the Borrowers and the Subsidiaries, or for the purpose of making, acquiring, purchasing or holding any other type of financial instrument such as a security, and (iii) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire, purchase or hold the commercial loans applicable to it and either it or the Person exercising discretion in making its decisions to make, acquire, purchase or hold such commercial loans is experienced in making, acquiring, purchasing or holding commercial loans.

Without limiting the foregoing, no Bank Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Agents on behalf of the Bank Secured Parties in accordance with the terms thereof (subject, in the case of the Collateral, to the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement). Each Lender (a) acknowledges that it has received a copy of each Intercreditor Agreement, (b) without limiting the foregoing, agrees that it will be bound by and will take no actions contrary to the provisions of any Intercreditor Agreement and (c)

acknowledges that each Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agents will, and hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent and each Collateral Agent to, enter into (and be a party to) the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of themselves, such Lender and other holders of Bank Obligations. The Lenders further acknowledge that, pursuant to the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the applicable Collateral Agent will have the sole right to proceed against the Collateral, and that the provisions of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement may, in certain circumstances, limit the ability of the Administrative Agent to direct such Collateral Agent. In the event of a foreclosure by any Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale or other disposition, any Lender may be the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale or other disposition, and such Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Secured Parties (but not any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective individual capacities) 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 sale, to use and apply any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral payable by such Collateral Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties at such sale or other disposition. Each Bank Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and of the Guarantees of the Bank Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the foregoing provisions. The provisions of this paragraph are for the sole benefit of the Lenders and shall not afford any right to, or constitute a defense available to, any Loan Party.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or any provision of any other Loan Document, each Joint Bookrunner and Joint Lead Arranger listed on the cover page of this Agreement is named as such for recognition purposes only, and in its capacity as such shall have no duties, responsibilities or liabilities with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document; it being understood and agreed that each such Person shall be entitled to all indemnification and reimbursement rights in favor of the Agents provided herein and in the other Loan Documents. Without limitation of the foregoing, no Joint Bookrunner or Joint Lead Arranger in its capacity as such shall, by reason of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, have any fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender, Loan Party or any other Person.

Each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby (a) authorizes the Administrative Agent to instruct the Collateral Agents to terminate any existing control agreements with depositary banks and securities intermediaries and (b) agrees that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in the Collateral Agreements, control agreements with depositary banks and securities intermediaries governing deposit accounts or securities accounts shall not be required to be entered into after the 2016 Restatement Date.

Subject to the terms of the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement each Lender and each Issuing Bank hereby:

(a) authorizes the Collateral Agents (whether or not by or through employees or agents and with the right of sub-delegation) to accept as its representative (Stellvertreter) any pledge or other creation of any accessory security right granted in favor of such Lender or Issuing Bank in connection with the German Security Documents (as defined in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement) under German law and to agree to and execute on its behalf as its representative (Stellvertreter) any amendments or alterations to any German Security Document which creates a pledge or any other accessory security right (akzessorische Sicherheit) including the release or confirmation of release of such security;

(b) releases each of the Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agents from any restrictions on representing several persons and self-dealing under any applicable law, and in particular from the restrictions of Section 181 of the German Civil Code (Bürgerliches Gesetzbuch) with the right of sub-delegation of such release, to make use of any authorization granted under this

Agreement and to perform its duties and obligations as Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, respectively hereunder and under the German Security Documents; and

(c) ratifies and approves all acts and declarations previously done by any Collateral Agent on such person’s behalf (including for the avoidance of doubt the declarations made by such Collateral Agent as representative without power of attorney (Vertreter ohne Vertretungsmacht) in relation to the creation of any pledge (Pfandrecht) on behalf and for the benefit of any Lender or Issuing Bank as future pledgee or otherwise).

The Lenders hereby authorize (i) the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, and (ii) each Collateral Agent, to enter into (and, in the case of the Administrative Agent, to instruct each Collateral Agent to enter into) any agreement, amendment, amendment and restatement, restatement, waiver, supplement or modification, and to make or consent to any filings or to take any other actions, in each case as contemplated by Section 9.26.

In addition, Holdings and each Borrower agree, and agree to cause the Subsidiaries, to continue to provide the Communications to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, as the case may be, in the manner specified in the Loan Documents but only to the extent requested by the Administrative Agent.

Holdings and each Borrower hereby agree that (i) all Borrower Materials that are to be made available to Public Lenders shall be clearly and conspicuously marked “PUBLIC” which, at a minimum, shall mean that the word “PUBLIC” shall appear prominently on the first page thereof; (ii) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrowers shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as not containing any material non-public information with respect to Holdings and any Borrower or its securities for purposes of foreign, United States federal and state securities laws (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 9.16); (iii) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated as “Public Investor;” and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to treat any Borrower Materials that are not marked “PUBLIC” as being suitable only for posting on a portion of the Platform not marked as “Public Investor.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, the following Borrower Materials shall be marked “PUBLIC”, unless Holdings or a Borrower notifies the Administrative Agent promptly that any such document contains material non-public information: (A) the Loan Documents and (B) notification of changes in the terms of the Credit Facilities.

Each Public Lender agrees to cause at least one individual at or on behalf of such Public Lender to at all times have selected the “Private Side Information” or similar designation on the content declaration screen of the Platform in order to enable such Public Lender or its delegate, in accordance with such Public Lender’s compliance procedures and applicable law, including foreign, United States Federal and state securities laws, to make reference to Communications that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain material non-public information with respect to Holdings or a Borrower or its securities for purposes of foreign, United States Federal or state securities laws.

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. NEITHER THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT NOR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES WARRANTS THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM AND EACH EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT 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 COMMUNICATIONS OR THE PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT OR ANY OF ITS RELATED PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER OR ANY OTHER PERSON FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON STRICT LIABILITY AND INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT THE LIABILITY OF ANY SUCH PERSON IS FOUND IN A FINAL RULING BY A COURT OF COMPETENT JURISDICTION TO HAVE RESULTED PRIMARILY FROM SUCH PERSON’S GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT.

Each Lender agrees to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (including by electronic communication) from time to time of such Xxxxxx’s e-mail address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and that the foregoing notice may be sent to such e-mail address.

SECTION 9.02. Survival of Agreement. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by each Loan Party herein and in the certificates or other instruments prepared or delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied upon by the Lenders and the Issuing Banks and shall survive the making by the Lenders of the Loans and the issuance of Letters of Credit by the Issuing Banks, regardless of any investigation made by the Lenders or the Issuing Banks or on their behalf, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Loan or any Fee or any other amount payable under this Agreement or any other Loan Document is outstanding and unpaid or any Letter of Credit is outstanding and so long as the Commitments have not been terminated. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.16, 2.20 and 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank.

The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrowers, any Issuing Bank, the Collateral Agents and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

No assignment shall be effective unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph (e).

(f) Each Lender may without the consent of any Borrower, any Issuing Bank or Administrative Agent sell participations to one or more banks or other Persons in all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment and the Loans owing to it); provided, however, that (i) such Lender’s 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, (iii) the participating banks or other Persons shall be entitled to the benefit, and be subject to the obligations, of the cost protection provisions contained in Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 2.20 to the same extent as if they were Lenders (but, with respect to any particular participant, to no greater extent than the Lender that sold the participation to such participant) and (iv) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce the obligations of the Borrowers relating to the Loans or L/C Disbursements and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement (other than amendments, modifications or waivers decreasing any fees payable to such participating bank or Person hereunder or the amount of principal of or the rate at which interest is payable on the Loans in which such participating bank or Person has an interest, extending any scheduled principal payment date or date fixed for the payment of interest on the Loans in which such participating bank or Person has an interest, increasing or extending the Commitments in which such participating bank or Person has an interest or releasing any Guarantor (other than in connection with the sale of such Guarantor in a transaction permitted by Section 6.05) or all or substantially all of the Collateral). To the extent permitted by law, each participating bank or other Person also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.06 as though it were a Lender; provided that such participating bank or other Person agrees to be subject to Section 2.18 as though it were a Lender. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Institutions.

(g) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each participant’s interest in the loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”). 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.

(h) Any Lender or participant may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 9.04, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant any information relating to Holdings or any Subsidiary furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of Holdings and the Subsidiaries; provided that, prior to any such disclosure of information, each such assignee or

participant or proposed assignee or participant shall execute an agreement whereby such assignee or participant shall agree (subject to customary exceptions) to preserve the confidentiality of such information on terms no less restrictive than those applicable to the Lenders pursuant to Section 9.16.

(i) Any Lender may at any time assign all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure extensions of credit to such Lender or in support of obligations owed by such Lender; provided that no such assignment shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(j) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, any Lender (a “Granting Lender”) may grant to a special purpose funding vehicle (an “SPV”), identified as such in writing from time to time by the Granting Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, the option to provide to the Borrowers all or any part of any Loan that such Granting Lender would otherwise be obligated to make to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement; provided that (i) nothing herein shall constitute a commitment by any SPV to make any Loan and (ii) if an SPV elects not to exercise such option or otherwise fails to provide all or any part of such Loan, the Granting Lender shall be obligated to make such Loan pursuant to the terms hereof. The making of a Loan by an SPV hereunder shall utilize the Commitment of the Granting Lender to the same extent, and as if, such Loan were made by such Granting Lender. Each party hereto hereby agrees that no SPV shall be liable for any indemnity or similar payment obligation under this Agreement (all liability for which shall remain with the Granting Lender). In furtherance of the foregoing, each party hereto hereby agrees (which agreement shall survive the termination of this Agreement) that, prior to the date that is one year and one day after the payment in full of all outstanding commercial paper or other senior indebtedness of any SPV, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against, such SPV any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings under the laws of the United States or any State thereof. In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 9.04, any SPV may (i) with notice to, but without the prior written consent of, the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and without paying any processing fee therefor, assign all or a portion of its interests in any Loans to the Granting Lender or to any financial institutions (consented to by the Borrowers and Administrative Agent) providing liquidity and/or credit support to or for the account of such SPV to support the funding or maintenance of Loans and (ii) disclose on a confidential basis any non-public information relating to its Loans to any rating agency, commercial paper dealer or provider of any surety, guarantee or credit or liquidity enhancement to such SPV. In the event that a Lender makes a grant to an SPV pursuant to this Section 9.04(j) or an SPV elects to exercise an option granted to it pursuant to this Section 9.04(j), no Loan Party shall be required to make payments under Section 2.20 in an amount in excess of the amount that it would be required to pay in the absence of such grant or election.

(k) [Reserved].

(l) In the event that any Revolving Credit Lender shall become a Defaulting Lender or S&P, Xxxxx’x and Xxxxxxxx’x BankWatch (or InsuranceWatch Ratings Service, in the case of Lenders that are insurance companies (or Best’s Insurance Reports, if such insurance company is not rated by Insurance Watch Ratings Service)) shall, after the date that any Lender becomes a Revolving Credit Lender, downgrade the long‑term certificate deposit ratings of such Lender, and the resulting ratings shall be below BBB-, Baa3 and C (or BB, in the case of a Lender that is an insurance company (or B, in the case of an insurance company

not rated by InsuranceWatch Ratings Service)) (or, with respect to any Revolving Credit Lender that is not rated by any such ratings service or provider or any Issuing Bank shall have reasonably determined that there has occurred a material adverse change in the financial condition of any such Lender, or a material impairment of the ability of any such Lender to perform its obligations hereunder, as compared to such condition or ability as of the date that any such Lender became a Revolving Credit Lender) then such Issuing Bank shall have the right, but not the obligation, at its own expense, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, to replace such Lender with an assignee (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above), and such Lender hereby agrees to transfer and assign without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in paragraph (b) above) all its interests, rights and obligations in respect of its Revolving Credit Commitment to such assignee; provided, however, that (i) no such assignment shall conflict with any law, rule and regulation or order of any Governmental Authority and (ii) such Issuing Bank or such assignee, as the case may be, shall pay to such Lender in immediately available funds on the date of such assignment the principal of and interest accrued to the date of payment on the Loans made by such Lender hereunder and all other amounts accrued for such Xxxxxx’s account or owed to it hereunder.

(m) (i) Notwithstanding the definition of “Eligible Assignee” or anything else to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Term Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans to any Person who, after giving effect to such assignment, would be an Affiliated Lender (without the consent of any Person but subject to acknowledgment by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower or Borrowers, such acknowledgment not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); provided that:

(A) the assigning Lender and the Affiliated Lender purchasing such Term Lender’s Term Loans shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in which such Affiliated Lender will be identified as such;

(B) at the time of such assignment and after giving effect to such assignment, the aggregate outstanding principal amount of all Term Loans held by Affiliated Lenders shall not exceed 25% of the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding under this Agreement;

(C) any such Term Loans acquired by (x) Holdings, a Borrower or a subsidiary shall be retired or cancelled promptly upon the acquisition thereof and (y) an Affiliated Lender may, with the consent of the Borrowers, be contributed to Holdings (and then to any Borrower), whether through a Parent Company or otherwise, and exchanged for equity securities, Subordinated Shareholder Loans or Permitted Affiliated Lender Exchange Debt of Holdings, the Borrowers or such Parent Company that are otherwise permitted to be issued at such time pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, so long as any Term Loans so acquired by Holdings, any Borrower or any subsidiary shall be retired and cancelled promptly upon the acquisition thereof; and

(D) no proceeds of Revolving Loans shall be used to fund any such acquisition by an Affiliated Lender.

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no Affiliated Lender shall have any right to (A) attend (including by telephone) any meeting or discussions (or portion thereof) among the Administrative Agent or any Lender to which representatives of the Loan Parties are not invited or (B) receive any information or material prepared by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any communication among the Administrative Agent and/or one or more

Lenders, except to the extent such information or materials or communication have been made available to any Loan Party or its representatives.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.08 or the definition of “Required Lenders” to the contrary, for purposes of determining whether the Required Lenders, all affected Lenders or all Lenders have (A) consented (or not consented) to any amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any of the terms of any Loan Document or any departure by any Loan Party therefrom, (B) otherwise acted on any matter related to any Loan Document or (C) directed or required the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agents or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) with respect to or under any Loan Document, an Affiliated Lender shall be deemed to have voted its interest as a Lender without discretion in the same proportion as the allocation of voting with respect to such matter by Lenders who are not Affiliated Lenders; provided that no amendment, modification, waiver, consent or other action with respect to any Loan Document shall deprive such Affiliated Lender of its pro rata share of any payments to which such Affiliated Lender is entitled under the Loan Documents without such Affiliated Lender providing its consent; provided, further, that such Affiliated Lender shall have the right to approve any amendment, modification, waiver or consent (1) of the type described in Section 9.08(b)(i), (b)(ii), (b)(iii), (b)(iv) or (b)(vi) of this Agreement or (2) that adversely affects such Affiliated Lender in its capacity as a Lender in any respect as compared to other Lenders; and in furtherance of the foregoing, (x) the Affiliated Xxxxxx agrees to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent any instrument reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to evidence the voting of its interest as a Lender in accordance with the provisions of this Section 9.04(m); provided that if the Affiliated Lender fails to promptly execute such instrument such failure shall in no way prejudice any of the Administrative Agent’s rights under this paragraph and (y) the Administrative Agent is hereby appointed (such appointment being coupled with an interest) by the Affiliated Lender as the Affiliated Lender’s attorney-in-fact, with full authority in the place and stead of the Affiliated Lender and in the name of the Affiliated Lender, from time to time in Administrative Agent’s discretion to take any action and to execute any instrument that Administrative Agent may deem reasonably necessary to carry out the provisions of this paragraph (m)(iii).

(iv) Each Affiliated Lender, solely in its capacity as a Lender, hereby agrees, and each assignment agreement relating to an assignment to such Affiliated Lender shall provide a confirmation that, if any Loan Party shall be subject to any voluntary or involuntary proceeding commenced under any Debtor Relief Laws (“Bankruptcy Proceedings”), (i) such Affiliated Lender shall not take any step or action in such Bankruptcy Proceeding to object to, impede or delay the exercise of any right or the taking of any action by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agents (or the taking of any action by a third party that is supported by the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agents) in relation to such Affiliated Lender’s claim with respect to its Loans (a “Claim”) (including objecting to any debtor in possession financing, use of cash collateral, grant of adequate protection, sale or disposition, compromise, or plan of reorganization) so long as such Affiliated Lender is treated in connection with such exercise or action on the same or better terms as the other Lenders and (ii) with respect to any matter requiring the vote of Lenders during the pendency of a Bankruptcy Proceeding (including voting on any plan of reorganization), the Loans held by such Affiliated Lender (and any Claim with respect thereto) shall be deemed to be voted in accordance with clause (iii) of this Section 9.04(m), so long as such Affiliated Lender is treated in connection with the exercise of such right or taking of such action on the same or better terms as the other Lenders. For the avoidance of doubt, the Lenders and each Affiliated Lender agree and acknowledge that the provisions set forth in this clause (iv) of Section 9.04(m), and the related provisions set forth in each assignment agreement relating to an assignment to such Affiliated

Lender, constitute a “subordination agreement” as such term is contemplated by, and utilized in, Section 510(a) of the Bankruptcy Code, and, as such, would be enforceable for all purposes in any case where a Loan Party has filed for protection under any Debtor Relief Law applicable to the Loan Party (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not cause the Loans held by any Affiliated Lender to be subordinated in right of payment to any other Obligations).

(v) Each Lender making an assignment to, or taking an assignment from, an Affiliated Lender acknowledges and agrees that in connection with such assignment, (x) such Affiliated Lender then may have, and later may come into possession of Excluded Information, (y) such Lender has independently and, without reliance on the Affiliated Lender, Holdings, the Borrowers, any of the other Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent or any of their respective Affiliates, has made its own analysis and determination to enter into such assignment notwithstanding such Xxxxxx’s lack of knowledge of the Excluded Information and (z) none of Holdings, the Borrowers, any other Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent, or any of their respective Affiliates shall have any liability to such Lender, and such Lender hereby waives and releases, to the extent permitted by law, any claims such Lender may have against Holdings, the Borrowers, the other Subsidiaries, the Administrative Agent, and their respective Affiliates, under applicable laws or otherwise, with respect to the nondisclosure of the Excluded Information. Each Lender entering into such an assignment further acknowledges that the Excluded Information may not be available to the Administrative Agent or the other Lenders.

The foregoing provisions of Sections 9.04(m)(ii), (iii) and (iv) shall not apply to an Investment Fund, and a Term Lender shall be permitted to assign all or a portion of such Term Lender’s Term Loans to any Investment Fund without regard to the foregoing provisions of Sections 9.04(m)(ii), (iii) and (iv).

(n) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, any Lender may assign all or a portion of its Term Loans in connection with any primary syndication of Term Loans relating to any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to cashless settlement mechanisms approved by the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the assignor Lender and the assignee of such Lender.

SECTION 9.05. Expenses; Indemnity. (a) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent, each Collateral Agent and each Issuing Bank in connection with the syndication of the Credit Facilities and the preparation and administration of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions hereby or thereby contemplated shall be consummated); provided that, except as otherwise agreed in the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the Loan Parties shall not be responsible for the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of more than one separate law firm (in addition to one local counsel per relevant jurisdiction). The Loan Parties also agree to pay all documented and out-of-pocket expenses incurred by (a) the Administrative Agent or any Collateral Agent in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights or the rights of the Lenders or the other Secured Parties in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents or in connection with the Loans made or Letters of Credit issued hereunder, including the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of Cravath, Swaine & Xxxxx LLP, counsel for the Administrative Agent, and, in connection with any such enforcement or protection, the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of any other counsel for the Administrative Agent and (b) the Lenders in connection with any formal legal action actually taken by, or at the request of, the Required Lenders, to enforce or protect their rights under the Credit Agreement or the other Loan Documents, limited, in the case of this clause (ii), to reasonable and

documented fees, charges and disbursements of one firm of counsel for all such Lenders and the reasonable and documented fees, charges and disbursements of one additional firm of counsel for all such Lenders in each relevant jurisdiction.

(b) The Loan Parties agree, jointly and severally, to indemnify the Administrative Agent, each Lender, each Issuing Bank and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including reasonable counsel fees, charges and disbursements, incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated thereby, the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions, the Company Post-Closing Reorganization, the Pactiv Transactions, the Xxxxxx Packaging Transactions, the 2016 Restatement Transactions, the other transactions contemplated thereby (including the syndication of the Credit Facilities) and any Borrowing hereunder, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or issuance of Letters of Credit, (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto (and regardless of whether such matter is initiated by a third party or by the Borrowers, any other Loan Party or any of their respective Affiliates), or (iv) any Release or actual or alleged presence of Hazardous Materials on, at or under any property currently or formerly owned, leased or operated by Holdings or any of its subsidiaries or any Environmental Liability related in any way to Holdings or any of its subsidiaries; 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 nonappealable judgment (or settlement tantamount thereto) to have resulted from (i) the bad faith, gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or Related Party of such Indemnitee or (ii) claims against such Indemnitee or any Related Party brought by any other Indemnitee that (x) did not arise out of any action or inaction on the part of Holdings or any of its Affiliates and (y) do not involve the Lead Arranger or an Agent in its capacity as such. This Section 9.05 shall not apply with respect to Taxes except as necessary to hold such Indemnitee harmless from any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses with respect to any non‑Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that any Loan Party fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Collateral Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section or under any other Loan Document, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such Xxxxxx’s pro rata share (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought and, in the case of the Collateral Agents, subject to pro rata allocation with the holders of the Senior Secured Notes to the extent provided for in any Intercreditor Agreement) of such unpaid amount; provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such Issuing Bank in its capacity as such. For purposes hereof, a Lender’s “pro rata share” shall be determined based upon its share of the sum of the Aggregate Revolving Credit Exposure, outstanding Term Loans and unused Commitments at the time (in each case, determined as if no Lender were a Defaulting Lender).

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, none of Holdings and the Borrowers shall assert, and each hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any

theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, the Company Post-Closing Reorganization, the Pactiv Transactions, the Xxxxxx Packaging Transactions, the 2016 Restatement Transactions and any Borrowing, Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof.

(e) The provisions of this Section 9.05 shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the expiration of the Commitments, the expiration of any Letter of Credit, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank. All amounts due under this Section 9.05 shall be payable on written demand therefor.

SECTION 9.06. Right of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, except to the extent prohibited by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by such Lender to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any of and all the obligations of any Loan Party now or hereafter existing under this Agreement and other Loan Documents held by such Lender, irrespective of whether or not such Lender shall have made any demand under this Agreement or such other Loan Document and although such obligations may be unmatured. The rights of each Lender under this Section 9.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) which such Lender may have.

SECTION 9.07. Applicable Law. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS (OTHER THAN LETTERS OF CREDIT AND AS EXPRESSLY SET FORTH IN OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS) SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. EACH LETTER OF CREDIT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAWS OR RULES DESIGNATED IN SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT, OR IF NO SUCH LAWS OR RULES ARE DESIGNATED, THE UNIFORM CUSTOMS AND PRACTICE FOR DOCUMENTARY CREDITS MOST RECENTLY PUBLISHED AND IN EFFECT, ON THE DATE SUCH LETTER OF CREDIT WAS ISSUED, BY THEINTERNATIONAL STANDBY PRACTICES (ISP98 — INTERNATIONAL CHAMBER OF COMMERCE PUBLICATION NUMBER 590 (THE “UNIFORM CUSTOMS”ISP98 RULES”)) AND, AS TO MATTERS NOT GOVERNED BY THE UNIFORM CUSTOMSISP98 RULES, THE LAWSLAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

SECTION 9.08. Waivers; Amendment. (a) No failure or delay of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank in exercising any power or right hereunder or under any other Loan Document 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 a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Loan Party therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted by paragraph (b) below, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given. No notice or demand on any Loan Party in any case shall entitle any Loan Party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances.

(b) Neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the other Loan Parties and the Required Lenders; provided, however, that no such agreement shall (i) decrease the principal amount of, or extend the maturity of or any scheduled principal payment date or date for the payment of any interest on any Loan or any date for reimbursement of an L/C Disbursement, or waive or excuse any such payment or any part thereof, or decrease the rate of interest on any Loan or L/C Disbursement, without the prior written consent of each Lender directly adversely affected thereby, (ii) increase or extend the Commitment or decrease or extend the date for payment of any Fees of any Lender without the prior written consent of such Lender, (iii) amend or modify the pro rata requirements of Section 2.17, the provisions of Section 9.04(k) or the provisions of this Section or release Guarantors representing all or substantially all the value of the Guarantee under Article X or all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the prior written consent of each Lender, (iv) change the provisions of any Loan Document in a manner that by its terms directly and adversely affects the rights of Lenders holding Loans of one Class differently from the rights of Lenders holding Loans of any other Class without the prior written consent of Lenders holding a majority in interest of the outstanding Loans and unused Commitments of each directly adversely affected Class, (v) modify the protections afforded to an SPV pursuant to the provisions of Section 9.04(j) without the written consent of such SPV, (vi) reduce the percentage contained in the definition of the term “Required Lenders” without the prior written consent of each Lender (it being understood that with the consent of the Required Lenders, additional extensions of credit pursuant to this Agreement may be included in the determination of the Required Lenders on substantially the same basis as the Term Loan Commitments and Revolving Credit Commitments on the date hereof) and (vii) only the written consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders shall be necessary to amend or waive the terms and provisions of Section 6.12, paragraph (d)(ii) of Article VII and the last two sentences of the definition of Consolidated EBITDA (and related definitions as used in such provisions, but not as used in other provisions of this Agreement), and no amendment or waiver of any of the foregoing in this clause (vii) may be made without the written consent of the Required Revolving Credit Lenders; provided that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent or any Issuing Bank hereunder or under any other Loan Document without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Collateral Agent or such Issuing Bank, as the case may be, and (B) any waiver, amendment or modification of this Agreement that by its terms solely affects the rights or duties under this Agreement of Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of a particular Class (but not the Lenders holding Loans or Commitments of any other Class) may be effected by an agreement or agreements in writing entered into by Holdings, the Borrowers and the requisite percentage in interest of the affected Class of Lenders that would be required to consent thereto under this Section if such Class of Lenders were the only Class of Lenders hereunder at the time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with the consent of Holdings, the Borrowers and the Required Lenders, this Agreement (including Section 2.17) may be amended to allow the Borrowers to prepay Loans of a Class on a non-pro rata basis in connection with offers made to all the Lenders of such Class pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent.

(c) The Administrative Agent, Holdings and the Borrowers may amend any Loan Document to correct administrative or manifest errors or omissions, or to effect administrative changes that are not adverse to any Lender; provided, however, that no such amendment shall become effective until the fifth Business Day after it has been posted to the

Lenders, and then only if the Required Lenders have not objected in writing thereto within such five Business Day period.

SECTION 9.09. Interest Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan or participation in any L/C Disbursement, together with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan or participation in such L/C Disbursement under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”), shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or reserved by the Lender holding such Loan or participation in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan or participation hereunder, together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan or participation but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section 9.09 shall be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or participations or periods shall be increased (but not above the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Effective Rate to the date of repayment, shall have been received by such Lender.

SECTION 9.10. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, the Fee Letter and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire contract between the parties relative to the subject matter hereof. Any other previous agreement among the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof is superseded by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Nothing in this Agreement or in the other Loan Documents, expressed or implied, is intended to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto and thereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted hereunder (including any Affiliate of any Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders and, (a) solely with respect to Article VIII, Section 9.22 and Article X, the Collateral Agents and (b) solely with respect to Section 9.22 and Article X, the Local Facility Providers, Hedge Providers and Cash Management Banks) any rights, remedies, obligations or liabilities under or by reason of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents.

SECTION 9.11. WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, ANY RIGHT IT MAY HAVE TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN RESPECT OF ANY LITIGATION DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY ARISING OUT OF, UNDER OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY OF THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS. EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS, AS APPLICABLE, BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION 9.11.

SECTION 9.12. Severability. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document should be held invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein and therein shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby (it being understood that the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not in and of itself affect the validity of such provision in any other jurisdiction). The parties shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions.

SECTION 9.13. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract, and shall become effective as provided in Section 9.03. Delivery of an executed signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or other customary means of electronic transmission shall be as effective as delivery of a manually signed counterpart of this Agreement.

SECTION 9.14. Headings. Article and Section headings and the Table of Contents used herein are for convenience of reference only, are not part of this Agreement and are not to affect the construction of, or to be taken into consideration in interpreting, this Agreement.

SECTION 9.15. Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process. (a) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of any New York State court or Federal court of the United States of America sitting in the Borough of Manhattan, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court; provided that solely for the purpose of enforcement of the rights of the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank and any Lender under this Agreement in Austria, each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally also submits, for itself and its property to the jurisdiction of the courts of England. Each of the parties hereto agrees that a final judgment in any such action or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect any right that the Administrative Agent, any Collateral Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may otherwise have to bring any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents against any Borrower, Holdings or their respective properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

(b) Each Loan Party hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents in any New York State or Federal court.

(d) Every act, omission, agreement, undertaking, settlement, waiver, amendment, supplement, variation, notice or other communication given or made by the Loan Parties’ Agent or given to the Loan Parties’ Agent under any Loan Document on behalf of another Loan Party or in connection with any Loan Document (whether or not known to any other Loan Party and whether occurring before or after such other Loan Party became a Loan Party under any Loan Document) shall be binding for all purposes on such Loan Party as if such Loan Party had expressly made, given or concurred with it.

SECTION 9.26. Additional Intercreditor and Security Arrangements. (a) In connection with the incurrence by Holdings or any Subsidiary of any Senior Secured Notes in the form of senior secured loans the obligations in respect of which are to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that has the same priority as the Liens securing the Bank Obligations, the Administrative Agent agrees, in its discretion, to execute and deliver (and to instruct each Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, as applicable) one or more intercreditor agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to both Holdings and the Administrative Agent containing customary intercreditor provisions as between credit agreement parties and which provide that the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of Term Loans and such Senior Secured Notes in the form of senior secured loans, voting as a single class, may direct the Collateral Agents and the Administrative Agent in its capacity as “Applicable Representative” under the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement and “Senior Agent” under the 2007 Intercreditor Agreement (and any similar role under any other Intercreditor Agreement) with respect to enforcement or the actions concerning the Collateral (“Other Intercreditor Agreements”) and any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, the First Lien Intercreditor Agreement, the 2007 Intercreditor Agreement or any Other Intercreditor Agreement as may be reasonably deemed necessary or desirable by Holdings and the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably) to give effect to such Other Intercreditor Agreements.

(b) In connection with any incurrence permitted hereunder by Holdings or any Subsidiary of any Senior Secured Notes the obligations in respect of which are to be secured by a Lien on the Collateral that is junior to the Liens securing the Bank Obligations, the Administrative Agent agrees, in its discretion, to execute and deliver (and to instruct each Collateral Agent to execute and deliver, as applicable) (i) one or more Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreements and (ii) any amendments, amendments and restatements, restatements or waivers of or supplements to or other modifications to, the other Intercreditor Agreements and any Security Document as may be

reasonably deemed necessary or desirable by Holdings and the Administrative Agent (acting reasonably) to give effect to the incurrence of such Senior Secured Notes and to permit such Senior Secured Notes to be secured by a Lien with such priority as may be designated by Holdings, to the extent such priority is permitted hereunder.

SECTION 9.27. Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for secured Hedging Agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Xxxx-Xxxxx Xxxx Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):

In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

SECTION 9.28. Further Agreement for the Benefit of the Revolving Credit Lenders. Notwithstanding anything herein or in any other Loan Document to the contrary, each of the Loan Parties hereby agrees with each of the Revolving Credit Lenders that none of (x) the Canton Property, (y) the Mortgage encumbering the Canton Property (but solely in respect of the Canton Property) or (z) any of the assets, equipment, fixtures or other property located on the Canton Property shall, in any such case constitute Collateral securing Obligations or Bank Obligations in respect of the Revolving Credit Commitments, the Revolving Loans or the Letters of Credit hereunder or under any other Loan Document.

ARTICLE X

Guarantee

SECTION 10.01. Guarantee. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable for, as primary obligor and not merely as surety, and absolutely and unconditionally guarantees to the Bank Secured Parties the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration after notice of prepayment or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Bank Obligations. Each Guarantor further agrees that the Bank Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to

or further assent from it, and that it remains bound upon its Guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal.

SECTION 10.02. Guarantee of Payment. This Guarantee is a guarantee of payment when due and not of collection. Each Guarantor waives any right to require any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Bank Secured Party to sue any Borrower, any other Guarantor, any other guarantor, or any other Person obligated for all or any part of the Bank Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce its rights in respect of any collateral securing all or any part of the Bank Obligations.

SECTION 10.03. No Discharge or Diminishment of Guarantee. (a) Except as otherwise provided for herein or set forth on Schedule 10.03 (to the extent that such Schedule 10.03 includes limitations and only in respect of the relevant Guarantors) or otherwise with the consent of the Required Lenders, the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Bank Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration or compromise of any of the Bank Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or ownership of any Borrower or any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Bank Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy, reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party, or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any obligation of any Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Guarantor may have at any time against any Obligated Party, any Agent, any Issuing Bank, any Bank Secured Party, or any other Person, whether in connection herewith or in any unrelated transactions.

(b) Subject to Section 10.03(d), the obligations of each Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, or termination whatsoever by reason of the invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any of the Bank Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Bank Obligations or any part thereof.

(c) Further, subject to the limitations in Schedule 10.03 the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Bank Secured Party to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any part of the Bank Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating to the Bank Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection, or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations of any Borrower for all or any part of the Bank Obligations or any obligations of any other guarantor of or other Person liable for any of the Bank Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Bank Secured Party with respect to any collateral securing any part of the Bank Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise, in the payment or performance of any of the Bank Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Guarantor as a matter of law or equity (other than the payment in full in cash of the Bank Obligations).

(d) Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement the Bank Obligations and liabilities of each applicable Guarantor shall be limited by the applicable local provisions and laws set forth in Schedule 10.03 with respect to such Guarantor.

SECTION 10.04. Defenses Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out of any defense of any Borrower or any

Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Bank Obligations from any cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower or any Guarantor, other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Bank Obligations. Furthermore, to the extent specified in Schedule 10.03, each Guarantor waives the rights and defenses therein specified. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party, or any other Person. Any Collateral Agent may, at its election, foreclose or enforce on any Collateral held by or on behalf of it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral securing all or a part of the Bank Obligations, and the Administrative Agent may, at its election, compromise or adjust any part of the Bank Obligations, make any other accommodation with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing in any way the liability of such Guarantor under this Guarantee except to the extent the Bank Obligations have been fully and indefeasibly paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Guarantor waives any defense arising out of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.

SECTION 10.05. Rights of Subrogation. No Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation, contribution or indemnification that it has against any Obligated Party (including against any Guarantor that is released from its obligations hereunder pursuant to Section 10.12), or any Collateral, until the Loan Parties have fully performed all their obligations to the Agents, the Issuing Banks and the Bank Secured Parties and the other Secured Parties.

SECTION 10.06. Reinstatement; Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Bank Obligations is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, or reorganization of any Borrower or otherwise, each Guarantor’s obligations under this Guarantee with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been made. If acceleration of the time for payment of any of the Bank Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower, all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Bank Obligations shall nonetheless be payable by the Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 10.07. Information. Each Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of each Borrower’s financial condition and assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Bank Obligations and the nature, scope and extent of the risks that each Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Guarantee, and agrees that none of any Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Bank Secured Party or any other Secured Party shall have any duty to advise any Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances or risks.

SECTION 10.08. Maximum Liability. The provisions of this Guarantee are severable, and in any action or proceeding involving any state corporate law, or any state, Federal or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other law affecting the rights of creditors generally, if the obligations of any Guarantor under this Guarantee would otherwise be held or determined to be avoidable, invalid or unenforceable on account of the amount of such Guarantor’s liability under this Guarantee, then, notwithstanding any other provision of this Guarantee to the contrary, the amount of such liability shall, without any further action by the Guarantors or the Bank Secured Parties, be automatically limited and reduced to the highest amount that is valid and enforceable as determined in such action or proceeding (such highest amount determined hereunder being the relevant Guarantor’s “Maximum Liability”). This Section with respect to the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor is intended solely to preserve the rights

of the Bank Secured Parties to the maximum extent not subject to avoidance under applicable law, and no Guarantor nor any other Person or entity shall have any right or claim under this Section with respect to such Maximum Liability, except to the extent necessary so that the obligations of any Guarantor hereunder shall not be rendered voidable under applicable law. Each Guarantor agrees that the Bank Obligations may at any time and from time to time exceed the Maximum Liability of each Guarantor without impairing this Guarantee or affecting the rights and remedies of the Bank Secured Parties hereunder; provided that nothing in this sentence shall be construed to increase any Guarantor’s obligations hereunder beyond its Maximum Liability.

SECTION 10.09. Contribution. In the event any Guarantor (a “Paying Guarantor”) shall make any payment or payments under this Guarantee or shall suffer any loss as a result of any realization upon any collateral granted by it to secure its obligations under this Guarantee, each other Guarantor (each a “Non-Paying Guarantor”) shall contribute to such Paying Guarantor an amount equal to such Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor Percentage” of such payment or payments made, or losses suffered, by such Paying Guarantor. For purposes of this Article X, each Non-Paying Guarantor’s “Guarantor Percentage” with respect to any such payment or loss by a Paying Guarantor shall be determined as of the date on which such payment or loss was made by reference to the ratio of (i) such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder) or, if such Non-Paying Guarantor’s Maximum Liability has not been determined, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Non-Paying Guarantor from any Borrower after the 2016 Restatement Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means) to (ii) the aggregate Maximum Liability of all Guarantors hereunder (including such Paying Guarantor) as of such date (without giving effect to any right to receive, or obligation to make, any contribution hereunder), or to the extent that a Maximum Liability has not been determined for any Guarantor, the aggregate amount of all monies received by such Guarantors from any Borrower after the 2016 Restatement Date (whether by loan, capital infusion or by other means). Nothing in this provision shall affect any Guarantor’s several liability for the entire amount of the Bank Obligations (up to such Guarantor’s Maximum Liability). Each of the Guarantors covenants and agrees that its right to receive any contribution under this Guarantee from a Non-Paying Guarantor shall be subordinate and junior in right of payment to the payment in full in cash of the Bank Obligations. This provision is for the benefit of the Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders, the other Bank Secured Parties and the Guarantors and may be enforced by any one, or more, or all of them in accordance with the terms hereof.

SECTION 10.10. Subordination. Each Guarantor hereby agrees that all Indebtedness and other monetary obligations owed by it to Holdings or any Subsidiary shall be fully subordinated to the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Obligations.

SECTION 10.11. Liability Cumulative. The liability of each Loan Party as a Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be cumulative with all liabilities of each Loan Party to the Agents, the Issuing Banks, the Lenders and the other Bank Secured Parties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties, without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides to the contrary.

SECTION 10.12. Release of Guarantors. Notwithstanding anything in Section 9.08(b) to the contrary, a Guarantor that is a subsidiary of Holdings (other than any Borrower) shall automatically be released from its obligations hereunder and its Guarantee shall be automatically released (A) upon the consummation of any transaction permitted hereunder as a result of which such Guarantor (i) ceases to be a Subsidiary or (ii) is liquidated, dissolved, merged, consolidated, amalgamated, wound-up, reorganised or otherwise ceases to exist (including as a result of a merger or consolidation into a Person that is not a Guarantor to the extent permitted hereunder), (B) upon delivery by Holdings of a written notice to the

Administrative Agent certifying that it is intended that such Guarantor be subject to an event described in paragraph (A)(ii) of this Section 10.12 that is otherwise permitted hereunder and that the release of such Guarantor is necessary or desirable to be able to effect such event; provided that the related events contemplated by paragraph (A)(ii) of this Section 10.12 are consummated reasonably promptly after such release (taking into account all requirements under applicable laws) or (C) upon such Guarantor being designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or as an Excluded Subsidiary, in each case in accordance with this Agreement. In connection with any such release, the Agents shall execute and deliver to any such Guarantor, at such Guarantor’s expense, all documents that such Guarantor shall reasonably request to evidence termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to the preceding sentence of this Section 10.12 shall be without recourse to or warranty by the Agents.

SECTION 10.13. Keepwell. Each Guarantor that is a Qualified ECP Guarantor at the time the Guarantee or the grant of the security interest under this Agreement or any other Security Document, in each case, by any Loan Party becomes effective with respect to any Bank Obligation in respect of a Hedge Agreement, hereby jointly and severally, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds or other support to each other Loan Party with respect to such Bank Obligation as may be needed by such Loan Party from time to time to honor all of its obligations under its Guarantee and the other Loan Documents in respect of such Bank Obligation. The obligations and undertakings of each such Guarantor under this Section shall remain in full force and effect until the Bank Obligations have been paid in full. Each such Guarantor intends this Section to constitute, and this Section shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the obligations of, and a “keepwell, support or other agreement” for the benefit of, each other Loan Party for all purposes of § 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity Exchange Act.

If Holdings elects to give the Collateral Agent Instructions using Electronic Means and the Collateral Agent, in its discretion elects to act upon such Instructions, its understanding of such Instructions shall be deemed controlling. Holdings understands and agrees that the Collateral Agent cannot determine the identity of the actual sender of such Instructions and that the Collateral Agent shall conclusively presume that directions that purport to have been sent by an Authorized Officer listed on the incumbency certificate provided to the Collateral Agent have been sent by such Authorized Officer. Holdings shall be responsible for ensuring that only Authorized Officers transmit such Instructions to the Collateral Agent and that Holdings and all Authorized Officers are solely responsible to safeguard the use and confidentiality of applicable user and authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys upon receipt by Holdings. The Collateral Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from its reliance upon and compliance with such Instructions notwithstanding such directions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. Holdings agrees: (i) to assume all risks arising out of the use of Electronic Means to submit Instructions to the Collateral Agent, including without limitation the risk of the Collateral Agent acting on unauthorized Instructions, and the risk of interception and misuse by third parties; (ii) that it is fully informed of the protections and risks associated with the various methods of transmitting Instructions to the Collateral Agent and that there may be more secure methods of transmitting Instructions than the method(s) selected by Holdings; (iii) that the security procedures (if any) to be followed in connection with its transmission of Instructions provide to it a commercially reasonable degree of protection in light of its particular needs and circumstances; and (iv) to notify the Collateral Agent immediately upon learning of any compromise or unauthorized use of the security procedures. “Electronic Means” shall mean the following communications methods: e-mail, secure electronic transmission containing applicable authorization codes, passwords and/or authentication keys issued by the Collateral Agent, or

4

another method or system specified by the Collateral Agent as available for use in connection with its services hereunder.

SECTION 3.11. Sanctions.

Each such party also hereby covenants and represents that neither it nor any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, directors or officers will use any payments made pursuant to the Credit Agreement, or commit any action or cause The Bank of New York Mellon to commit any action that has the effect of: (i) funding or facilitating any activities of or business with any person who, at the time of such funding or facilitation, is the subject or target of Sanctions, (ii) funding or facilitating any activities of or business with any country or territory that is the target or subject of Sanctions or (iii) in any other manner, violating Sanctions by any person.
