Amended Credit Agreement or any other Loan Documents, in each case from and after the Amendment Effective Date, except as set forth herein.

Section 2.  Amendments to Credit Agreement.
(a)Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 6 of this Amendment, on the Amendment Effective Date, the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby (i) amended to delete the stricken text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: stricken text) and to add the underlined text (indicated textually in the same manner as the following example: underlined text) as set forth in the pages attached hereto as Annex B-1 and (ii) restated in its entirety to read as set forth in such Annex B-1 after giving effect to such textual deletions and additions.
(b)Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 6 of this Amendment, on the Amendment Effective Date, (i) Schedules 2.1, 4.3, 4.4, 4.6, 4.8A, 4.8B, 4.14 and 4.17 to the Existing Credit Agreement are hereby amended and restated in their entirety to read as set forth in Annex B-2A; provided, Schedule 2.1 shall be amended and restated after giving effect to this Amendment and any Consenting Lender Repurchases (as defined below) to occur on the Amendment Effective Date, but after giving effect to this Amendment and (ii) (x) Exhibit H to the Existing Credit Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as set forth in Annex B-2B and (y) Exhibit L-1 and Exhibit L-2 of the Existing Credit Agreement shall each be deleted in its entirety.

Immediately and automatically, without any further action on the part of Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, any Lender, the Administrative Agent or any other Person, upon receipt of an Assumption and Assignment executed by such Consenting Term Lender and the Borrower in respect of any such assignment, the applicable Existing Term Loans and all rights and obligations as of such Consenting Term Lender related thereto shall, for all purposes under the Credit Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise, be deemed to be irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender under the Credit Agreement or under any other Loan Documents by virtue of such assignment. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any such Assumption and Assignment delivered to it. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates
3

|US-DOCS\115367345.18||



and its partners that are natural persons, members that are natural persons, officers, directors, employees, trustees, advisors, agents and controlling Persons (each of the foregoing, an “Agent-Related Person”), in their respective capacities as such, shall not be liable to and shall be held harmless by each Consenting Term Lender, each other Lender, the Borrower or each of their respective affiliates, equity holders or debt holders for any losses, costs, damages or liabilities incurred, directly or indirectly, as a result of any Agent-Related Person, or their counsel or other representatives, taking any action in effectuating any Specified Borrower Repurchase. The Administrative Agent hereby acknowledges and agrees that no transfer fee under Section 10.6(b)(ii)(2) of the Amended Credit Agreement is payable in connection with any Specified Borrower Repurchase.
I.Section 3.  Establishment of Extended Term Loans.
(a)Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Section 6 of this Amendment, there is hereby established under the Amended Credit Agreement an Extended Term Tranche of Extended Term Loans (such Extended Term Loans collectively, the “2020 Extended Term Loans”) having the terms set forth in this Amendment and the Amended Credit Agreement, and references in the Amended Credit Agreement to Term Loans and Extended Term Loans shall include, without limitation, the 2020 Extended Term Loans.  The 2020 Extended Term Loans shall be denominated in Dollars. For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding Section 2.26(a) of the Existing Credit Agreement, the Borrower shall not be required to deliver an Extension Request in connection with the 2020 Extended Term Loans. The Minimum Extension Condition is waived by the Borrower.
(b)Each Extending Lender that executes and delivers to the Administrative Agent a Consent on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on May 1, 2020 (the “Consent Deadline”) irrevocably agrees to convert into 2020 Extended Term Loans on the Amendment Effective Date the aggregate principal amount of its Existing Term Loans set forth in the Administrative Agent’s Register as of the Consent Deadline (such conversion, the “2020 Conversion”) but, for the avoidance of doubt, immediately after giving effect to the funding of the Brandco Credit Agreement and the use of proceeds therefrom. On the Amendment Effective Date, each Extending Lender (by execution and delivery of a Consent) hereby agrees that the aggregate principal amount of Existing Term Loans held by such Extending Lender set forth in the Administrative Agent’s Register as of the Consent Deadline shall automatically (and without any further action on the part of any party to this Amendment or the Existing Credit Agreement but, for the avoidance of doubt, immediately after giving effect to the funding of the Brandco Credit Agreement and the use of proceeds therefrom) be converted into and reclassified to become an equal principal amount of 2020 Extended Term Loans. After giving effect to the 2020 Conversion, the aggregate principal amount of all such 2020 Extended Term Loans held by an Extending Lender shall equal the aggregate principal amount of Existing Term Loans held by such Extending Lender as set forth in the Administrative Agent’s Register as of the Consent Deadline but, for the avoidance of doubt, immediately after giving effect to the funding of the Brandco Credit Agreement and the use of proceeds therefrom. The remainder (if any) of all Existing Term Loans made under the Existing Credit Agreement will, after giving effect to this Extension Amendment, remain outstanding as Term Loans (the “2016 Term Loans”) with the maturity date and interest rate in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness of this Amendment and subject to the terms of the Amended Credit Agreement.  On the Amendment Effective Date, after giving effect to this Amendment, the aggregate principal amount of 2020 Extended Term Loans and the aggregate principal amount of 2016 Term Loans shall be set forth on Schedule I hereto.
(c)On the Amendment Effective Date, all accrued and unpaid interest owing by the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement with respect to any Existing Term Loan (or portion thereof, if applicable) shall be paid in full in cash immediately prior to the 2020 Conversion.  Such
4

|US-DOCS\115367345.18||



payment shall not be subject to any breakage cost reimbursement with respect to Eurocurrency Loans of any Consenting Lender which would have otherwise been incurred under the terms of the Existing Credit Agreement or Amended Credit Agreement.
(d)On and after the Amendment Effective Date, interest shall accrue on the 2020 Extended Term Loans and 2016 Term Loans at the interest rate provided for in the Amended Credit Agreement.  Each 2020 Extended Term Loan and 2016 Term Loan shall initially be deemed to be a borrowing of a 2020 Extended Term Loan or 2016 Term Loan, as applicable, that is a Eurocurrency Loan with an initial Interest Period equal to the remaining duration (as of the Amendment Effective Date) of the Interest Period applicable to the Existing Term Loans; provided, however, that it is understood and agreed that in no event shall any conversion or extension of any Existing Term Loan, or any other transaction contemplated by this Amendment, constitute a repayment, conversion or other event with respect to such Loan that would result in the application or operation of the provisions of Section 2.8, 2.11, 2.12 or 2.21 of the Existing Credit Agreement or Amended Credit Agreement.
Section 4.  Fees
On the Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of each Consenting Term Lender who has delivered its Consent to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the Consent Deadline and it is entitled thereto, a consent fee (the “Consent Fee”) equal to 0.50% of the aggregate principal amount of Existing Term Loans of such Consenting Term Lender outstanding under the Existing Credit Agreement immediately prior to the Amendment Effective Date. The Consent Fee shall be deemed fully earned and payable on the Amendment Effective Date and will not be refundable under any circumstances. Such fees shall not be subject to reduction by way of setoff or counter claim. In addition, all such payments shall be made without deduction for any taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, charges or withholdings imposed by any taxing authority or will be grossed up by the Borrower for such amounts, provided, that the recipient of any such payment shall have provided applicable tax forms to establish any available exemptions from withholding. Each Consenting Term Lender may share its fees hereunder with any of its affiliates.

If the Applicable Threshold Price is not equal to the lowest Reply Price received pursuant to the Reply Bids, the Auction Offeror shall be entitled, at its election, to either (i) complete the Auction at the Applicable Threshold Price or (ii) withdraw the Auction. In the case of clause (i) above, the Auction Offeror shall purchase (by assignment) Term Loans from each Term Lender whose Return Bid is within the Discount Range and contains a Reply Price that is equal to or less than the Applicable Threshold Price (each, a “Qualifying Bid”). All Term Loans included in Qualifying Bids received at a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at a purchase price equal to the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration. If a Term Lender has submitted a Return Bid containing multiple component bids at different Reply Prices, then all Term Loans of such Term Lender offered in any such component bid that constitutes a Qualifying Bid with a Reply Price lower than the Applicable Threshold Price shall also be purchased at a purchase price equal to the applicable Reply Price and shall not be subject to proration.
(d) Proration Procedures. In the case of clause (c)(i) above, all Term Loans offered in Return Bids (or, if applicable, any component bid thereof) constituting Qualifying Bids equal to the Applicable Threshold Price will be purchased at a purchase

price equal to the Applicable Threshold Price; provided that if the aggregate principal amount of all Term Loans for which Qualifying Bids have been submitted in any given Dutch Auction equal to the Applicable Threshold Price would exceed the remaining portion of the Auction Amount (after deducting all Term Loans purchased below the Applicable Threshold Price), the Borrower shall purchase the Term Loans for which the Qualifying Bids submitted were at the Applicable Threshold Price ratably based on the respective principal amounts offered and in an aggregate amount up to the amount necessary to complete the purchase of the Auction Amount. For the avoidance of doubt, no Return Bids (or any component thereof) will be accepted above the Applicable Threshold Price.
(e) Notification Procedures. The Auction Manager will calculate the Applicable Threshold Price no later than the third Business Day after the date that the Return Bids were due. The Auction Manager will insert the amount of Term Loans to be assigned and the applicable settlement date determined by the Auction Manager in consultation with the Auction Offeror onto each applicable Auction Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid. Upon written request of the submitting Term Lender, the Auction Manager will promptly return any Auction Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Return Bid that is not a Qualifying Bid.
(f) Additional Procedures.
(i) Once initiated by an Auction Notice, the Auction Offeror may withdraw a Dutch Auction by written notice to the Auction Manager (x) in the circumstances described in clause (c)(i) above or (y) no later than 24 hours before the original Expiration Time so long as no Qualifying Bids have been received by the Auction Manager at or prior to the time the Auction Manager receives such written notice from the Auction Offeror. Any Return Bid (including any component bid thereof) delivered to the Auction Manager may not be modified, revoked, terminated or cancelled; provided that a Term Lender may modify a Return Bid at any time prior to the Expiration Time solely to reduce the Reply Price included in such Return Bid. However, a Dutch Auction shall become void if the Auction Offeror fails to satisfy one or more of the conditions to the purchase of Term Loans set forth in, or to otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 10.6 of this Agreement. The purchase price for all Term Loans purchased in a Dutch Auction shall be paid in cash by the Auction Offeror directly to the respective assigning Term Lender on a settlement date as determined by the Auction Manager in consultation with the Auction Offeror (which shall be no later than ten (10) Business Days after the date Return Bids are due), along with accrued and unpaid interest (if any) on the applicable Term Loans up to the settlement date. The Auction Offeror shall execute each applicable Auction Assignment and Acceptance received in connection with a Qualifying Bid.

If since the beginning of such period any Person that subsequently became a Restricted Subsidiary or was merged with or into the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period shall have made any Investment, brand acquisitions or Disposition that would have required adjustment pursuant to this provision, then such calculation shall be made giving pro forma effect thereto for such Test Period as if such Investment, brand acquisitions or Disposition had occurred at the beginning of the applicable Test Period.
1.4 Exchange Rates; Currency Equivalents

US-DOCS\115367111.15

Furthermore, (A) for purposes of Section 7.2, the amount of any Indebtedness denominated in any currency other than Dollars shall be calculated based on the applicable Spot Rateexchange rate, in the case of such Indebtedness incurred (in respect of funded term Indebtedness) or committed (in respect of revolving or delayed draw Indebtedness), on the date that such Indebtedness was incurred (in respect of funded term Indebtedness) or committed (in respect of revolving or delayed draw Indebtedness); provided that if such Indebtedness is incurred to refinance other Indebtedness denominated in a currency other than Dollars (or in a different currency from the Indebtedness being refinanced), and such refinancing would cause the applicable Dollar-denominated restriction to be exceeded if calculated at the applicable Spot Rateexchange rate on the date of such refinancing, such Dollar-denominated restriction shall be deemed not to have been exceeded so long as the principal amount of such refinancing Indebtedness does not exceed (i) the outstanding or committed principal amount, as applicable, of such Indebtedness being refinanced plus (ii) the aggregate amount of accrued interest, fees, underwriting discounts, premiums and other costs and expenses incurred in connection with such refinancing, (B) for purposes of Sections 7.3, 7.5, 7.6 and 7.7, the amount of any Liens, Dispositions, Restricted Payments and Investments, as applicable, denominated in any currency other than Dollars shall be calculated based on the applicable Spot Rate,exchange rate, (C) for purposes of any calculation under Sections 7.2 and 7.3, if the Borrower elects to give pro forma effect in such calculation to the entire committed amount of any proposed Indebtedness, whether or not then drawn, such committed amount may thereafter be borrowed and reborrowed, in whole or in part, from time to time, without further compliance with Section 7.2 or 7.3, but for so long as such Indebtedness is outstanding or in effect, the entire committed amount of such Indebtedness then in effect shall be included in any calculations under Sections 7.2 and 7.3, (D) any cash proceeds of Indebtedness shall be excluded as Unrestricted Cash and not netted for purposes of calculating any financial ratios and tests with respect to any substantially concurrent incurrence of a Ratio Basket Item or Event pursuant to a Ratio Basket and (E) any Fixed Basket Item or Event incurred pursuant to or otherwise included pursuant to a Fixed Basket based on

All Term Loan Repurchases shall be made at par.
(b) Each BrandCo Lender wishing to participate in a Term Loan Repurchase shall provide the Administrative Agent and the Borrower with a written notice in the form of Exhibit H (or such other form as may be agreed between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower) (a “Repurchase Notice”) prior to the third anniversary of the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date.

(c) The Borrower shall not be required to complete a Term Loan Repurchase from any BrandCo Lender that has not funded its Additional Term B-2 Commitments under the BrandCo Credit Agreement with respect to such Term Loan Repurchase; provided, that the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to ascertain, monitor or inquire whether or not such funding has occurred. For the avoidance of doubt, the Borrower hereby agrees to make such Term Loan Repurchases so long as such BrandCo Lenders have an Excess Roll-up Amount, subject to the requirements of this Section 2.3, and the Administrative Agent shall record such Term Loan Repurchases in the Register.

If no election as to the Type of a Revolving Loan is specified, other than with respect to Revolving Loans denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency, then the requested Loan shall be an ABR Loan.

the date of the proposed Swingline Loan (A) directing the Swingline Lender not to make such Swingline Loan as a result of the limitations set forth in Section 2.6(a), or (B) that one or more of the applicable conditions specified in Section 5.2 is not then satisfied, then, subject to the terms and conditions hereof, the Swingline Lender shall make each Swingline Loan available to the Borrower at its office by crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of the Swingline Lender in immediately available funds by 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the requested date of such Swingline Loan. Swingline Loans shall be made in an amount equal to $100,000 or a whole multiple of $100,000 in excess thereof.
(c) The Borrower shall have the right at any time and from time to time to repay, without premium or penalty, any Swingline Loan, in whole or in part, upon giving written or telecopy notice (or telephone notice promptly confirmed by written or telecopy notice) to the Swingline Lender and to the Administrative Agent before 3:00 p.m., New York City time on the date of repayment at the Swingline Lender’s address for notices specified in the Swingline Lender’s administrative questionnaire. All principal payments of Swingline Loans shall be accompanied by accrued interest on the principal amount being repaid to the date of payment.
(d) The Swingline Lender may and, at any time there shall be Swingline Loan outstanding for more than seven days, the Swingline Lender shall by written notice given to the Administrative Agent not later than 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on any Business Day require the Revolving Lenders to acquire participations on such Business Day in all or a portion of the Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Revolving Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Revolving Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, upon receipt of notice as provided above, to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Percentage of such Swingline Loan or Loans. Each Revolving Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever (provided, that such payment shall not cause such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Extensions of Credit to exceed such Revolving Lender’s Revolving Commitment). Each Revolving Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 3.4 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 3.4 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative

Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Revolving Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as their interests may appear. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.
(e) If the Revolving Termination Date applicable to a Tranche shall have occurred at a time when other Tranches will remain outstanding, then on such Revolving Termination Date all then outstanding Swingline Loans with respect to such maturing Tranche shall be repaid in full on such date (and there shall be no adjustment to the participations in such Swingline Loans as a result of the occurrence of such Revolving Termination Date); provided, that, if on the occurrence of such Revolving Termination Date (after giving effect to any repayments of Revolving Loans and any reallocation as contemplated in Section 3.4(d)), (i) there shall exist sufficient unutilized Revolving Commitments that will remain outstanding after the date thereof and (ii) the conditions set forth in Sections 5.2(a) and 5.2(b) shall be satisfied at such time so that the respective outstanding Swingline Loans could be incurred pursuant to such Revolving Commitments which will remain in effect after the occurrence of such Revolving Termination Date, then there shall be an automatic adjustment on such date of the participations in such Swingline Loans and the same shall be deemed to have been incurred solely pursuant to such Revolving Commitments and such Swingline Loans shall not be so required to be repaid in full on such Revolving Termination Date.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event a Revolving Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage in all outstanding Swingline Loans will automatically be reallocated among the Revolving Lenders that are Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with each Non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage (calculated without regard to the Revolving Commitment of the Defaulting Lender), but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Extensions of Credit of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed the Revolving Commitment of such Non-Defaulting Lender. If such reallocation cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall, within five Business Days after written notice from the Administrative Agent or such longer period as the Administrative Agent shall agree, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount of cash equal to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Percentage (calculated as in effect immediately prior to it becoming a Defaulting Lender) of the outstanding Swingline Loans (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 2.6(f)) to be applied to the repayment of such Swingline Loans. So long as there is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to lend any Swingline Loans if the sum of, without duplication, the Non-Defaulting Lenders’ Revolving Percentages of the outstanding Revolving Loans and L/C Obligations and their participations in Swingline Loans after giving effect to any such requested Swingline Loans would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders (such excess, “Fronting Exposure”).
(g) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, designate as Swingline Lenders one or more Revolving Lenders that agree to serve in such capacity as provided herein and is reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent. The acceptance by a Revolving

Lender of an appointment as a Swingline Lender hereunder shall be evidenced by an agreement, which shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and such designated Swingline Lender, executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and such designated Swingline Lender, and, from and after the effective date of such agreement, (i) such Revolving Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement and (ii) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to include such Revolving Lender in its capacity as a lender of Swingline Loans hereunder.
2.7 Defaulting Lenders
.
(a) Defaulting Lender Cure.

Proceeds from any Asset Sale or Recovery Event (except to the extent such Asset Sale or Recovery Event, as applicable, relates to any ABL Facility First Priority Collateral so long as such ABL Facility First Priority Collateral secures the ABL Facility), then, unless a Reinvestment Notice shall be delivered to the Administrative Agent in respect thereof, such Net Cash Proceeds shall be applied not later than 10 Business Days after such date toward the prepayment of the Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(d); provided, that, notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) if a Reinvestment Notice has been delivered to the Administrative Agent, the Term Loans shall be prepaid as set forth in Section 2.12(d) by an amount equal to the Reinvestment Prepayment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event on the applicable Reinvestment Prepayment Date and (ii) on the date (the “Trigger Date”) that is six months after any such Reinvestment Prepayment Date, the Term Loans shall be prepaid as set forth in Section 2.12(d) by an amount equal to the portion of any Committed Reinvestment Amount with respect to the relevant Reinvestment Event not actually expended by such Trigger Date.
(c) Unless the Required Prepayment Lenders shall otherwise agree, if, for any Excess Cash Flow Period, there shall be Excess Cash Flow, the Borrower shall, on the relevant Excess Cash Flow Application Date, apply an amount equal to (A) the Excess Cash Flow Application Amount, minus (B) the aggregate amount of all prepayments of Revolving Loans and ABL Loans during such Excess Cash Flow Period to the extent accompanied by permanent optional reductions of the applicable commitments, and all optional prepayments of Term Loans during such Excess Cash Flow Period (excluding any such optional prepayments during such Excess Cash Flow Period which the Borrower elected to apply to the calculation pursuant to this paragraph (c) in a prior Excess Cash Flow Period) and, at the option of the Borrower, optional prepayments of Term Loans after such Excess Cash Flow Period but prior to the time of the Excess Cash Flow Application Date, in each case other than to the extent any such prepayment is funded with the proceeds of long-term Indebtedness, toward the prepayment of Term Loans as set forth in Section 2.12(d), in each case of this clause (B), to the extent not deducted in accordance with clause (b)(iii) of the definition of “Excess Cash Flow”. Each such prepayment shall be made on a date (an “Excess Cash Flow Application Date”) no later than ten days after the date on which the financial statements referred to in Section 6.1(a), for the fiscal year with respect to which such prepayment is made, are required to be delivered to the Lenders.
(d) Amounts to be applied in connection with prepayments of Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12 shall be applied to the prepayment of the Term Loans in accordance with Section 2.18(b) until paid in full. In connection with any mandatory prepayments by the Borrower of the Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.12, such prepayments shall be applied on a pro rata basis to the then outstanding Term Loans being prepaid irrespective of whether such outstanding Term Loans are ABR Loans or Eurocurrency Loans and (to the extent the Borrower elects, or is required by the terms thereof) may be applied, along with such prepayments of Term Loans, to purchase, redeem or repay any other Indebtedness secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Liens securing the Obligations pursuant to one or more Other Intercreditor Agreements, pursuant to the agreements governing such other Indebtedness, on not more than a pro rata basis with respect to such prepayments of Term Loans; provided, that with respect to such mandatory prepayment, the amount of such mandatory prepayment shall be applied first to Term Loans that are ABR Loans to the full extent thereof before application to Term Loans that

#93138577v21

LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




are Eurocurrency Loans in a manner that minimizes the amount of any payments required to be made by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.21. Each prepayment of the Term Loans under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued interest to the date of such prepayment on the amount prepaid.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 2.12 or 2.18, with respect to the amount of any mandatory prepayment pursuant to Section 2.12(b) or (c) (such amount, the “Term Prepayment Amount”), the Borrower may, in its sole discretion, in lieu of applying such amount to the prepayment of Term Loans as provided in paragraph (d) above, on the date specified in this Section 2.12 for such prepayment, give the Administrative Agent telephonic notice (promptly confirmed in writing) requesting that the Administrative Agent prepare and provide to each Term Lender (which, for avoidance of doubt, includes each New Term Lender and Extended Lender holding Term Loans) a notice (each, a “Prepayment Option Notice”) as described below. As promptly as practicable after receiving such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent will send to each Term Lender a Prepayment Option Notice, which shall be in the form of Exhibit I (or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower), and shall include an offer by the Borrower to prepay, on the date (each a “Mandatory Prepayment Date”) that is ten Business Days after the date of the Prepayment Option Notice, the Term Loans of such Lender by an amount equal to the portion of the Term Prepayment Amount indicated in such Lender’s Prepayment Option Notice as being applicable to such Lender’s Term Loans. Each Term Lender may reject all or a portion of its Term Prepayment Amount by providing written notice to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower no later than 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) five Business Days after such Term Lender’s receipt of the Prepayment Option Notice (which notice shall specify the principal amount of the Term Prepayment Amount to be rejected by such Lender) (such rejected amounts collectively, the “Declined Amount”); provided, that any Term Lender’s failure to so reject such Term Prepayment Amount shall be deemed an acceptance by such Term Lender of such Prepayment Option Notice and the amount to be prepaid in respect of Term Loans held by such Term Lender. On the Mandatory Prepayment Date, the Borrower shall pay to the relevant Term Lenders the aggregate amount necessary to prepay that portion of the outstanding Term Loans in respect of which such Lenders have (or are deemed to have) accepted prepayment as described above. Any such Declined Amounts may be used by the Borrower for any purpose not prohibited by this Agreement.
(f) If, on any date, the aggregate Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments (other than as a result of any revaluation of the Dollar Equivalent of any Revolving Loans or the L/C Obligations on any Revaluation Date in accordance with Section 1.4, in which case, if the aggregate Revolving Extensions of Credit would exceed 105% of the aggregate Revolving Commitments),, the Borrower shall promptly repay or prepay Revolving Loans and, after the Revolving Loans shall have been repaid or prepaid in full, replace, cause to be canceled or Cash Collateralize Letters of Credit in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess (it being understood that any portion of the L/C Exposure that is Cash Collateralized shall be deemed not to be included in any Revolving Extensions of Credit for purposes of determining the amount of any such excess). If the Borrower shall provide collateral under this paragraph (f) as a result of the Revolving Commitments being exceeded,
97
#93138577v21 
US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




such amount shall (so long as no other requirement for Cash Collateralization shall then exist) be returned to the Borrower within three Business Days after the Revolving Commitments are no longer so exceeded..
(g) Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Section 2.12, (A) to the extent that any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Asset Sale by a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Asset Sale”) or the Net Cash Proceeds of any Recovery Event with respect to a Foreign Subsidiary (a “Foreign Recovery Event”), in each case giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.12(b), or Excess Cash Flow derived from a Foreign Subsidiary giving rise to a prepayment event pursuant to Section 2.12(c), are or is prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law from being repatriated to the United States, the portion of such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected will not be required to be applied to repay Term Loans at the times provided in this Section 2.12 but may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary so long, but only so long, as the applicable local law will not permit or restricts repatriation to the United States (the Borrower hereby agreeing to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Foreign Subsidiary to promptly take all actions reasonably required by the applicable local law to permit such repatriation), and once such repatriation of any of such affected Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow is permitted under the applicable local law, such repatriation will be immediately effected and such repatriated Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow will be promptly (and in any event not later than five Business Days after such repatriation) applied (net of additional taxes payable or reserved against as a result thereof including, without duplication, any repatriation costs associated with repatriation of such proceeds from the applicable recipient to the Borrower) to the repayment of the Term Loans in accordance with this Section 2.12 and (B) to the extent that the Borrower has determined in good faith that repatriation of any or all of the Net Cash Proceeds of any Foreign Asset Sale or any Foreign Recovery Event or any Excess Cash Flow derived from a Foreign Subsidiary could reasonably be expected to result in a material adverse tax consequence (taking into account any foreign tax credit or benefit, in the Borrower’s reasonable judgment, expected to be realized in connection with such repatriation) with respect to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow so affected may be retained by the applicable Foreign Subsidiary, provided, that, in the case of this clause (B), on or before the date on which any Net Cash Proceeds so retained would otherwise have been required to be applied to reinvestments or prepayments pursuant to this Section 2.12 (or fifteen months after the date such Excess Cash Flow would have been so required to be applied if it were Net Cash Proceeds), (x) the Borrower shall apply an amount equal to such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow to such reinvestments or prepayments as if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been received by the Borrower rather than such Foreign Subsidiary, less the amount of additional taxes that would have been payable or reserved against if such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow had been repatriated (or, if less, the Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow that would be calculated if received by such Foreign Subsidiary) or (y) such Net Cash Proceeds or Excess Cash Flow shall be applied to the repayment of Indebtedness of a Foreign Subsidiary, in each case, other than as mutually agreed by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent.

per annum equal to the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility plus 2.00% (or, in the case of any such other amounts that do not relate to a particular Facility, the rate then applicable to ABR Loans under the Initial2020 Extended Term B Facility plus 2.00%), in each case, with respect to clauses (i) and (ii) above, from the date of such nonpayment until such amount is paid in full (after as well as before judgment); provided, that no amount shall be payable pursuant to this Section 2.15(c) to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender; provided, further, that no amounts shall accrue pursuant to this Section 2.15(c) on any overdue Loan, Reimbursement Obligation, commitment fee or other amount payable to a Defaulting Lender so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender.
(d) Interest shall be payable by the Borrower in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided, that interest accruing pursuant to paragraph (c) of this Section 2.15 shall be payable from time to time on demand.
2.16 Computation of Interest and Fees
.
(a) Interest and fees payable pursuant hereto shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year for the actual days elapsed, except that interest on ABR Loans (except for ABR computations in respect of clauses (b) and (c) of the definition thereof) shall be calculated on the basis of a 365- (or 366-, as the case may be) day year for the actual days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the ABR or the Eurocurrency Reserve Requirements shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the relevant Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in interest rate.
(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower, deliver to the Borrower a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 2.15(a) and Section 2.15(b).
2.17 Inability to Determine Interest Rate
. If prior to the first day of any Interest Period for any Eurocurrency Loan:
(a) the Administrative Agent shall have determined (which determination shall be presumptively correct absent demonstrable error) that, by reason of circumstances affecting the relevant market, adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period; or
(b) the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of the relevant Facility that by reason of any changes arising after the

Closing Date, the Eurocurrency Rate determined or to be determined for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (as certified by such Lenders) of making or maintaining their affected Loans during such Interest Period,
the Administrative Agent shall give telecopy notice thereof to the Borrower and the relevant Lenders as soon as practicable thereafter. If such notice is given (x) any Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility requested to be made on the first day of such Interest Period shall be made as ABR Loans, (y) any Loans under the relevant Facility that were to have been converted on the first day of such Interest Period to Eurocurrency Loans shall be continued as ABR Loans and (z) any outstanding Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility shall be converted, on the last day of the then-current Interest Period with respect thereto, to ABR Loans. Until such notice has been withdrawn by the Administrative Agent (which action the Administrative Agent will take promptly after the conditions giving rise to such notice no longer exist), no further Eurocurrency Loans under the relevant Facility shall be made or continued as such, nor shall the Borrower have the right to convert Loans under the relevant Facility to Eurocurrency Loans.
2.18 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments
.
(a) Except as expressly otherwise provided herein (including as expressly provided in Sections 2.7, 2.9, 2.10(b), 2.12, 2.15(c), 2.19, 2.20, 2.21, 2.22, 2.24, 2.26, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7), each borrowing by the Borrower from the Revolving Lenders hereunder, each payment by the Borrower on account of any commitment fee and any reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall be made pro rata according to the Revolving Percentages of the relevant Revolving Lenders other than reductions of Revolving Commitments pursuant to Section 2.24 and payments in respect of any differences in the Applicable Commitment Fee Rate between Tranches. Except as expressly otherwise provided herein (including as expressly provided in Sections 2.7, 2.12, 2.15(c), 2.19, 2.20, 2.21, 2.22, 2.24, 2.26, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7), each payment (other than prepayments) in respect of principal or interest in respect of any Tranche of Term Loans and each payment in respect of fees payable hereunder with respect to the Term Loans of such Tranche shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Term Lenders of such Tranche, pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to such Term Lenders.
(b) Each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall be allocated among the Tranches of Term Loans then outstanding pro rata, in each case except as affected by the opt-out provision under Section 2.12(e); provided, that at the request of the Borrower, in lieu of such application to the Term Loans on a pro rata basis among all Tranches of Term Loans, such prepayment may be applied to any Tranche of Term Loans so long as the maturity date of such Tranche of Term Loans precedes the maturity date of each other Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding or, in the event more than one Tranche of Term Loans shall have an identical maturity date that precedes the maturity date of each other Tranche of Term Loans then outstanding, to such Tranches on a pro rata basis; provided, further, that in connection with a mandatory prepayment under Section 2.12(a) in connection with the incurrence of Permitted

#93138577v21 
US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




Refinancing Obligations, such prepayment shall be allocated to the Tranches as specified by the Borrower (but to the Loans within such Tranches on a pro rata basis). Each optional prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to the remaining installments thereof as specified by the Borrower (and absent such specification, in direct order of maturity). Each mandatory prepayment of the Term Loans shall be applied to the remaining installments thereof in direct order of maturity. Amounts repaid or prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.
(c) Except as expressly otherwise provided herein (including as expressly provided in Sections 2.7, 2.10(b), 2.12, 2.15(c), 2.19, 2.20, 2.21, 2.22, 2.24, 2.26, 10.5, 10.6 and 10.7), each payment (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Revolving Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Revolving Lenders other than payments in respect of any differences in the Applicable Margin applicable to different Tranches. Each payment in respect of Reimbursement Obligations in respect of any Letter of Credit shall be made to the Issuing Lender that issued such Letter of Credit. Each payment of principal in respect of Swingline Loans shall be made in accordance with Section 2.6.
(d) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made without setoff, deduction or counterclaim and shall be made prior to 3:00 p.m., New York City time, on the due date thereof to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Lenders, at the Funding Office, in immediately available funds. Any payment received by the Administrative Agent after 3:00 p.m., New York City time may be considered received on the next Business Day in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion. The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the relevant Lenders promptly upon receipt in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder (other than payments on the Eurocurrency Loans) becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If any payment on a Eurocurrency Loan becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless the result of such extension would be to extend such payment into another calendar month, in which event such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day. In the case of any extension of any payment of principal pursuant to the preceding two sentences, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension.
(e) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender prior to a borrowing that such Lender will not make the amount that would constitute its share of such borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender is making such amount available to the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. If such amount is not made available to the Administrative Agent by the required time on the Borrowing Date therefor, such Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent on demand, such amount with interest thereon, at a rate equal to the greater of (i) the Federal Funds Effective Rate and (ii) a rate reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent in

accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation, for the period until such Lender makes such amount immediately available to the Administrative Agent. A certificate of the Administrative Agent submitted to any Lender with respect to any amounts owing under this paragraph shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error. If such Lender’s share of such borrowing is not made available to the Administrative Agent by such Lender within three Business Days after such Borrowing Date, the Administrative Agent shall give notice of such fact to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall also be entitled to recover such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the relevant Facility, on demand, from the Borrower. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or the Borrower against any Defaulting Lender.
(f) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by the Borrower prior to the date of any payment due to be made by the Borrower hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment to the Administrative Agent, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower is making such payment, and the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be required to, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant Lenders their respective pro rata shares of a corresponding amount. If such payment is not made to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower within three Business Days after such due date, the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to recover, on demand, from each relevant Lender to which any amount which was made available pursuant to the preceding sentence, such amount with interest thereon at the rate per annum equal to the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate. Nothing herein shall be deemed to limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender against the Borrower.
2.19 Requirements of Law
.
(a) Except with respect to Indemnified Taxes, Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority first made, in each case, subsequent to the Closing Date:
(i) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by any office of such Lender that is not otherwise included in the determination of the Eurocurrency Rate hereunder;
(ii) shall subject any Recipient to any Taxes on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations or its deposits, reserves, other liability or capital attributable thereto; or
(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition not otherwise contemplated hereunder;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender or other Recipient, by an amount which such Lender or other Recipient reasonably deems to be material, of making, converting into, continuing or maintaining Eurocurrency Loans or issuing or participating in Letters of Credit (in each case hereunder), or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly pay such Lender, in Dollars, within thirty Business Days after the Borrower’s receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor (showing with reasonable detail the calculations thereof), any additional amounts necessary to compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.19, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled.
(b) If any Lender shall have reasonably determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any entity controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity requirements (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority first made, in each case, subsequent to the Closing Date shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such entity’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder or under or in respect of any Letter of Credit to a level below that which such Lender or such entity could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such entity’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity requirements) by an amount deemed by such Lender to be material, then from time to time, after submission by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of a reasonably detailed written request therefor (consistent with the detail provided by such Lender to similarly situated borrowers), the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, in Dollars, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or such entity for such reduction.
(c) A certificate prepared in good faith as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.19 submitted by any Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.19, the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.19 for any amounts incurred more than 180 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided, that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such 180-day period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect. The obligations of the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.19 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall not be obligated to make payment to any Lender with respect to penalties, interest and expenses if written demand therefor was not made by such Lender within 180 days from the date on which such Lender makes payment for such penalties, interest and expenses.
(d) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 2.19 to the contrary, solely for purposes of this Section 2.19, (i) the Dodd Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection

(e) For purposes of this Section 2.19, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender.
2.20 Taxes
.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement or as required by law, all payments made by or on account of the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to any Recipient under this Agreement shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any Taxes. If any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes are required to be deducted or withheld from any such payments, the amounts so payable to the applicable Recipient shall be increased to the extent necessary so that after deduction or withholding of such Indemnified Taxes and Other Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.20(a)) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
(b) In addition, the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.
(c) Whenever any Taxes are payable by the Borrower and any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, as promptly as possible thereafter the Borrower shall send to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Administrative Agent or Lender, as the case may be, a certified copy of an original official receipt received by the Borrower or Loan Party showing payment thereof if such receipt is obtainable, or, if not, such other evidence of payment as may reasonably be required by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. If the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents fails to pay any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes that the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents is required to pay pursuant to this Section 2.20 (or in respect of which the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents would be required to pay increased amounts pursuant to Section 2.20(a) if such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were withheld) when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fails to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall indemnify the applicable Recipient for any payments by them of such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, including any amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.20(a), and for any Incremental Taxes that become payable by such Recipient as a result of any such failure within

thirty days after the Lender or the Administrative Agent delivers to the Borrower or Loan Party (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) either (a) a copy of the receipt issued by a Governmental Authority evidencing payment of such Taxes or (b) certificates as to the amount of such payment or liability prepared in good faith.
(d) [reserved]
(e) Each Lender that is not a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “Non-US Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or, in the case of a Participant, to the Lender from which the related participation shall have been purchased) (A) (i) two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable, (ii) in the case of a Non-US Lender claiming exemption from U.S. federal withholding tax under Section 871(h) or 881(c) of the Code with respect to payments of “portfolio interest”, a statement substantially in the form of Exhibit F and two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, or any subsequent versions or successors to such forms, in each case properly completed and duly executed by such Non-US Lender claiming complete exemption from, or reduced rate of, U.S. federal withholding tax on all payments by the Borrower or any Loan Party under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, or (iii) IRS Form W-8IMY (or any applicable successor form) and all necessary attachments (including the forms described in clauses (i) and (ii) above, provided that if the Non-US Lender is a partnership, and one or more of the partners is claiming portfolio interest treatment, the certificate in the form of Exhibit F may be provided by such Non-US Lender on behalf of such partners) and (B) any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax duly completed together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made. Such forms shall be delivered by each Non-US Lender before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement (or, in the case of any Participant, on or before the date such Participant purchases the related Participation). In addition, each Non-US Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such Non-US Lender, and from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Each Non-US Lender shall (i) promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certificate to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose) and (ii) take such steps as shall not be disadvantageous to it, in its reasonable judgment, and as may be reasonably necessary (including the re-designation of its lending office pursuant to Section 2.23) to avoid any requirement of applicable laws of any such jurisdiction that the Borrower or any Loan Party make any deduction or withholding for Taxes from amounts payable to such Lender. Notwithstanding any other provision of this paragraph, a Non-US Lender shall not be required to deliver any form pursuant to this paragraph that such Non-US Lender is not legally able to deliver provided that it shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of such inability.

(g) Each Lender that is a United States person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) (a “US Lender”) shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent two accurate and complete copies of IRS Form W-9, or any subsequent versions or successors to such form and certify that such Lender is not subject to backup withholding. Such forms shall be delivered by each US Lender on or before the date it becomes a party to this Agreement. In addition, each US Lender shall deliver such forms promptly upon the obsolescence or invalidity of any form previously delivered by such US Lender, and from time to time thereafter if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent. Each US Lender shall promptly notify the Borrower at any time it determines that it is no longer in a position to provide any previously delivered certifications to the Borrower (or any other form of certification adopted by the United States taxing authorities for such purpose).
(h) If any Recipient determines, in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.20 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.20), it shall promptly pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid under this Section 2.20 with respect to the Indemnified Taxes or Other 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 such refund); provided, that such indemnifying party, upon the request of such Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the indemnifying party (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority other than any such penalties, interest or other charges resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the relevant Recipient (as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction)) to such Recipient in the event such Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority; provided, further, that such Recipient shall, at the indemnifying party’s request, provide a copy of any notice of assessment or other evidence of the requirement to pay such refund received from the relevant Governmental Authority (provided that the Recipient may delete any information therein that it deems confidential). This paragraph shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person. In no event will any Recipient be required to pay any amount to an indemnifying party the payment of which would place such Recipient in a less favorable net after-tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the additional amounts giving rise to such refund of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes had never been paid. The agreements in this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.
(i) [reserved]
(j) If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably

requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 2.20(j), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
(k) To the extent required by any applicable laws, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any applicable withholding Tax. Without limiting the provisions of Section 2.20, each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(c)(iii) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (h).
(l) The agreements in this Section 2.20 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable under any Loan Document, the resignation of the Administrative Agent and any assignment of rights by, or replacement of, any Lender.
(m) For purposes of this Section 2.20, the term “Lender” shall include any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, and, for the avoidance of doubt, applicable law includes FATCA.
2.21 Indemnity
. Other than with respect to Taxes, which shall be governed solely by Section 2.20, the Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender for, and to hold each Lender harmless from, any loss or expense (other than lost profits, including the loss of Applicable Margin) that such Lender actually sustains or incurs as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Borrower in making a borrowing of, conversion into or continuation of Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) any failure by the Borrower in making any prepayment of or conversion from Eurocurrency Loans after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment, conversion or continuation of Eurocurrency

Loans on a day that is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. A reasonably detailed certificate as to (showing in reasonable detail the calculation of) any amounts payable pursuant to this Section 2.21 submitted to the Borrower by any Lender shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations.
2.22 Illegality
. Notwithstanding any other provision herein, if the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof, in each case, first made after the Closing Date, shall make it unlawful for any Lender to make or maintain Eurocurrency Loans as contemplated by this Agreement, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, and (a) the commitment of such Lender hereunder to make Eurocurrency Loans, continue Eurocurrency Loans as such and convert ABR Loans to Eurocurrency Loans shall be suspended during the period of such illegality and (b) such Lender’s Loans then outstanding as Eurocurrency Loans, if any, shall be converted automatically to ABR Loans on the respective last days of the then current Interest Periods with respect to such Loans or within such earlier period as required by law. If any such conversion of a Eurocurrency Loan occurs on a day which is not the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 2.21.
2.23 Change of Lending Office
. Each Lender agrees that, upon the occurrence of any event giving rise to the operation of Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22 with respect to such Lender, it will, if requested by the Borrower, use reasonable efforts (subject to overall policy considerations of such Lender) to avoid or minimize any amounts payable pursuant to such Sections (including by designating another lending office for any Loans affected by such event with the object of avoiding the consequences of such event); provided, that such designation is made on terms that, in the good faith judgment of such Lender, cause such Lender and its lending office(s) to suffer no material economic, legal or regulatory disadvantage; provided, further, that nothing in this Section 2.23 shall affect or postpone any of the obligations of the Borrower or the rights of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20(a) or 2.22.
2.24 Replacement of Lenders
. The Borrower shall be permitted to (a) replace with a financial entity or financial entities, or (b) prepay or terminate, without premium or penalty (but subject to Section 2.21), the Loans or Commitments, as applicable, of any Lender, Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender (each such Lender, Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, a “Replaced Lender”) that (i) requests reimbursement for amounts owing or otherwise results in increased costs imposed on the Borrower or on account of which the Borrower is required to pay additional amounts to any Governmental Authority, in each case, pursuant to Section 2.19, 2.20 or 2.21 (to the extent a request made by a Lender pursuant to the operation of Section 2.21 is materially greater than requests made by other Lenders) or gives a notice of illegality pursuant to Section 2.22, (ii) is a

In order to establish any Extended Tranche, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the Administrative Agent (who shall provide a copy of such notice to each of the Lenders of the applicable Existing Tranche) (an “Extension Request”) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Tranche to be established, which terms shall be substantially similar to those applicable to the Existing Tranche from which they are to be extended (the “Specified Existing Tranche”), except (x) all or any of the final maturity or termination dates of such Extended Tranches may be delayed to later dates than the final maturity or termination dates of the Specified Existing Tranche, (y) (A) the interest margins with respect to the Extended Tranche may be higher or lower than the interest margins for the Specified Existing Tranche and/or (B) additional fees may be payable to the Lenders providing such Extended Tranche in addition to or

in lieu of any increased margins contemplated by the preceding clause (A) and/or (C) prepayment premiums may be different and (z) in the case of an Extended Term Tranche, so long as the weighted average life to maturity of such Extended Tranche would be no shorter than the remaining weighted average life to maturity of the Specified Existing Tranche, amortization rates with respect to the Extended Term Tranche may be higher or lower than the amortization rates for the Specified Existing Tranche, in each case to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment; provided, that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.26 or otherwise, assignments and participations of Extended Tranches shall be governed by the same or, at the Borrower’s discretion, more restrictive assignment and participation provisions applicable to Term Loans or Revolving Commitments, as applicable, set forth in Section 10.6. No Lender shall have any obligation to agree to have any of its Existing Loans converted into an Extended Tranche pursuant to any Extension Request. Any Extended Tranche shall constitute a separate Tranche of Loans from the Specified Existing Tranches and from any other Existing Tranches (and any other Extended Tranches so established on such date).
(b) The Borrower shall provide the applicable Extension Request at least 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree to) prior to the date on which Lenders under the applicable Existing Tranche or Existing Tranches are requested to respond.

additional terms and/or additional amendments other than those referred to or contemplated above (any such additional amendment, a “Section 2.26 Additional Amendment”) to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; provided, that such Section 2.26 Additional Amendments do not become effective prior to the time that such Section 2.26 Additional Amendments have been consented to (including pursuant to consents applicable to holders of any Extended Tranches provided for in any Extension Amendment) by such of the Lenders, Loan Parties and other parties (if any) as may be required in order for such Section 2.26 Additional Amendments to become effective in accordance with Section 10.1; provided, further, that no Extension Amendment may provide for (i) any Extended Tranche to be secured by any Collateral or other assets of any Loan Party that does not also secure the Existing Tranches or be guaranteed by any Person other than the Guarantors and (ii) so long as any Existing Term Tranches are outstanding, any mandatory or voluntary prepayment provisions that do not also apply to the Existing Term Tranches (other than Existing Term Tranches secured on a junior basis by the Collateral or ranking junior in right of payment, which shall be subject to junior prepayment provisions) on at least a pro rata basis (or otherwise provide for more favorable prepayment treatment for Extending Term Tranches than such Existing Term Tranches as contemplated by Section 2.12). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.1, any such Extension Amendment may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to any Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable judgment of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.26; provided, that the foregoing shall not constitute a consent on behalf of any Lender to the terms of any Section 2.26 Additional Amendment.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, on any date on which any Existing Tranche is converted to extend the related scheduled maturity or termination date(s) in accordance with Section 2.26(a) above (an “Extension Date”), in the case of the Specified Existing Tranche of each Extending Lender, the aggregate principal amount of such Specified Existing Tranche shall be deemed reduced by an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Extended Tranche so converted by such Lender on such date, and such Extended Tranches shall be established as a separate Tranche from the Specified Existing Tranche and from any other Existing Tranches (and any other Extended Tranches so established on such date).
(e) If, in connection with any proposed Extension Amendment, any Lender declines to consent to the applicable extension on the terms and by the deadline set forth in the applicable Extension Request (each such other Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) then the Borrower may, on notice to the Administrative Agent and the Non-Extending Lender, replace such Non-Extending Lender by causing such Lender to (and such Lender shall be obligated to) assign pursuant to Section 10.6 (with the assignment fee and any other costs and expenses to be paid by the Borrower or the assignee in such instance) all of its rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more assignees; provided, that neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation to the Borrower to find a replacement Lender; provided, further, that the applicable assignee shall have agreed to provide Extended Loans on the terms set forth in such Extension Amendment; provided, further, that all obligations of the Borrower owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans so assigned (including

In connection with any such replacement under this Section 2.26, if the Non-Extending Lender does not execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent a duly completed Assignment and Assumption or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, by the later of (A) the date on which the replacement Lender executes and delivers such Assignment and Assumption or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, and (B) the date as of which all obligations of the Borrower owing to the Non-Extending Lender relating to the Existing Loans so assigned shall be paid in full to such Non-Extending Lender, then such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Assumption or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, as of such date and the Borrower shall be entitled (but not obligated) to execute and deliver such Assignment and Assumption or Affiliated Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, on behalf of such Non-Extending Lender.
(f) Following any Extension Date, with the written consent of the Borrower, any Non-Extending Lender may elect to have all or a portion of its Existing Loans deemed to be an Extended Loan under the applicable Extended Tranche on any date (each date a “Designation Date”) prior to the maturity or termination date of such Extended Tranche; provided, that such Lender shall have provided written notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at least 10 Business Days prior to such Designation Date (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree in its reasonable discretion); provided, further, that no greater amount shall be paid by or on behalf of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates to any such Non-Extending Lender as consideration for its extension into such Extended Tranche than was paid to any Extended Lender as consideration for its Extension into such Extended Tranche. Following a Designation Date, the Existing Loans held by such Lender so elected to be extended will be deemed to be Extended Loans of the applicable Extended Tranche, and any Existing Loans held by such Lender not elected to be extended, if any, shall continue to be “Existing Loans” of the applicable Tranche.
(g) With respect to all Extensions consummated by the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.26, (i) such Extensions shall not constitute optional or mandatory payments or prepayments for purposes of Sections 2.11 and 2.12 and (ii) no Extension Request is required to be in any minimum amount or any minimum increment, provided, that the Borrower may at its election specify as a condition (a “Minimum Extension Condition”) to consummating any such Extension that a minimum amount (to be determined and specified in the relevant Extension Request in the Borrower’s sole discretion and which may be waived by the Borrower) of Existing Loans of any or all applicable Tranches be extended. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby consent to the transactions contemplated by this Section 2.26 (including, for the avoidance of doubt, payment of any interest, fees or premium in respect of any Extended Loans on such terms as may be set forth in the relevant Extension Request) and hereby waive the requirements of any provision of this Agreement (including Sections 2.8, 2.11 and 2.12) or any other Loan Document that may otherwise prohibit any such Extension or any other transaction contemplated by this Section 2.26.

The Borrower may from time to time request that the relevant Issuing Lender issue a Letter of Credit (or amend, renew or extend an outstanding Letter of Credit) by delivering to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified to the Borrower by such Issuing Lender an Application therefor, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, completed to the reasonable satisfaction of such Issuing Lender, and such other certificates, documents and other papers and information as such Issuing Lender may reasonably request. Such Application may be sent by facsimile, by United States mail, by overnight courier, by electronic transmission using the system provided by the relevant Issuing Lender, by personal delivery or by any other means acceptable to the relevant Issuing Lender. Upon receipt of any Application, the relevant Issuing Lender will process such Application and the certificates, documents and other papers and information delivered to it in connection therewith in accordance with its customary procedures and shall promptly issue (or amend, renew or extend, as the case may be) the Letter of Credit requested thereby (but in no event without the consent of the applicable Issuing Lender shall any Issuing Lender be required to issue (or amend, renew or extend, as the case may be) any Letter of

Credit earlier than three Business Days after its receipt of the Application therefor and all such other certificates, documents and other papers and information relating thereto) by issuing the original of such Letter of Credit (or such amendment, renewal or extension, as the case may be) to the beneficiary thereof or as otherwise may be agreed to by such Issuing Lender and the Borrower. Such Issuing Lender shall furnish a copy of such Letter of Credit to the Borrower promptly following the issuance (or such amendment, renewal or extension, as the case may be) thereof. Each Issuing Lender shall promptly furnish to the Administrative Agent, which shall in turn promptly furnish to the relevant Revolving Lenders, notice of the issuance (or such amendment, renewal or extension, as the case may be) of each Letter of Credit issued by it (including the amount thereof).
3.3 Fees and Other Charges
.
(a) The Borrower will pay a fee, in Dollars, on each outstanding Letter of Credit requested by it, at a per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurocurrency Loans under the related Revolving Facility, on the Dollar Equivalent of the face amount of such Letter of Credit, which fee shall be shared ratably among the applicable Revolving Lenders and payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date; provided, that, with respect to any Defaulting Lender, such Lender’s ratable share of any letter of credit fee accrued on the aggregate amount available to be drawn on any outstanding Letters of Credit during the period prior to the time such Lender became a Defaulting Lender and unpaid at such time shall not be payable by the Borrower so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender except to the extent that such Lender’s ratable share of any letter of credit fee shall otherwise have been due and payable by the Borrower prior to such time; provided, further, that any Defaulting Lender’s ratable share of any letter of credit fee accrued on the aggregate amount available to be drawn on any outstanding Letters of Credit shall accrue (x) for the account of each Non-Defaulting Lender with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Letters of Credit which has been reallocated to such Non-Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(d), (y) for the account of the Borrower with respect to any L/C Shortfall if the Borrower has paid to the Administrative Agent an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of the L/C Shortfall to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrower to the applicable Issuing Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent, or (z) for the account of the applicable Issuing Lenders, in any other instance, in each case so long as such Lender shall be a Defaulting Lender. In addition, the Borrower shall pay to each Issuing Lender for its own account a fronting fee, in Dollars, on the Dollar Equivalent of the aggregate face amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by it to the Borrower, equal to the L/C Fronting Fee Rate, payable quarterly in arrears on each Fee Payment Date after the issuance date.
(b) In addition to the foregoing fees, the Borrower shall pay or reimburse each Issuing Lender for standard costs and expenses agreed by the Borrower and such Issuing Lender in issuing, negotiating, effecting payment under, amending or otherwise administering any Letter of Credit requested by the Borrower.

3.4 L/C Participations
.
(a) Each Issuing Lender irrevocably agrees to grant and hereby grants to each L/C Participant, and, to induce such Issuing Lender to issue Letters of Credit, each L/C Participant irrevocably agrees to accept and purchase and hereby accepts and purchases from such Issuing Lender, on the terms and conditions set forth below, for such L/C Participant’s own account and risk an undivided interest equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage in such Issuing Lender’s obligations and rights under and in respect of each Letter of Credit issued by it and the amount of each draft paid by such Issuing Lender thereunder. Each L/C Participant agrees with each Issuing Lender that, if a draft is paid under any Letter of Credit issued by it for which such Issuing Lender is not reimbursed in full by the Borrower in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, such L/C Participant shall pay, in Dollars, to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender upon demand an amount equal to such L/C Participant’s Revolving Percentage of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of such draft, or any part thereof, that is not so reimbursed (“L/C Disbursements”); provided, that nothing in this paragraph shall relieve the Issuing Lender of any liability resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Issuing Lender (as determined by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). Each L/C Participant’s obligation to pay such amount shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance, including (i) any setoff, counterclaim, recoupment, defense or other right that such L/C Participant may have against any Issuing Lender, the Borrower or any other Person for any reason whatsoever, (ii) the occurrence or continuance of a Default or an Event of Default or the failure to satisfy any of the other conditions specified in Section 5, (iii) any adverse change in the financial condition of the Borrower, (iv) any breach of this Agreement or any other Loan Document by the Borrower, any other Loan Party or any other L/C Participant or (v) any other circumstance, happening or event whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing.
(b) If any amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 3.4(a) in respect of any unreimbursed portion of any payment made by such Issuing Lender under any Letter of Credit is paid to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such L/C Participant shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender on demand an amount equal to the product of (i) such amount, times (ii) the daily average Federal Funds Effective Rate during the period from and including the date such payment is required to the date on which such payment is immediately available to such Issuing Lender, times (iii) a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days that elapse during such period and the denominator of which is 360. If any such amount required to be paid by any L/C Participant pursuant to Section 3.4(a) is not made available to the Administrative Agent for the account of the relevant Issuing Lender by such L/C Participant within three Business Days after the date such payment is due, such Issuing Lender shall be entitled to recover from such L/C Participant, on demand, such amount with interest thereon calculated from such due date at the rate per annum applicable to ABR Loans under the related Revolving Facility. A certificate of the relevant Issuing Lender submitted to any relevant
123
#93138577v21 
US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




L/C Participant with respect to any amounts owing under this Section 3.4 shall be presumptively correct in the absence of demonstrable error.
(c) Whenever, at any time after any Issuing Lender has made payment under any Letter of Credit and has received from any L/C Participant its pro rata share of such payment in accordance with Section 3.4(a), if the Administrative Agent receives for the account of the Issuing Lender any payment related to such Letter of Credit (whether directly from the Borrower or otherwise, including proceeds of collateral applied thereto by the Administrative Agent), or any payment of interest on account thereof, the Administrative Agent will distribute to such L/C Participant its pro rata share thereof; provided, however, that in the event that any such payment shall be required to be returned by such Issuing Lender, such L/C Participant shall return to the Administrative Agent for the account of such Issuing Lender the portion thereof previously distributed by such Issuing Lender to it.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event an L/C Participant becomes a Defaulting Lender, then such Defaulting Lender’s applicable Revolving Percentage in all outstanding Letters of Credit will automatically be reallocated among the applicable L/C Participants that are Non-Defaulting Lenders pro rata in accordance with each Non-Defaulting Lender’s applicable Revolving Percentage (calculated without regard to the Revolving Commitments of the Defaulting Lender), but only to the extent that such reallocation does not cause the Revolving Extensions of Credit of any Non-Defaulting Lender to exceed the Revolving Commitments of such Non-Defaulting Lender. If such reallocation cannot, or can only partially, be effected the Borrower shall, within five Business Days after written notice from the Administrative Agent, pay to the Administrative Agent an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to such Defaulting Lender’s applicable Revolving Percentage (calculated as in effect immediately prior to it becoming a Defaulting Lender) of the L/C Obligations (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to the first sentence of this Section 3.4(d)) to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent. So long as there is a Defaulting Lender, an Issuing Lender shall not be required to issue any Letter of Credit where the sum of the Non-Defaulting Lenders’ applicable Revolving Percentages of the outstanding Revolving Loans and their participations in Letters of Credit after giving effect to any such requested Letter of Credit would exceed (each such excess, the “L/C Shortfall”) the aggregate applicable Revolving Commitments of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, unless the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent an amount of cash and/or Cash Equivalents equal to the amount of the L/C Shortfall, such cash and/or Cash Equivalents to be held as security for all obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders hereunder in a cash collateral account to be established by, and under the sole dominion and control of, the Administrative Agent.
3.5 Reimbursement Obligation of the Borrower
. The Borrower agrees to reimburse each Issuing Lender on the Business Day following the date on which such Issuing Lender notifies the Borrower of the date and amount of a draft presented under any Letter of Credit issued or continued by such Issuing Lender at the

LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




Borrower’s request (including any Letters of Credit issued for the account of a Restricted Subsidiary) and paid by such Issuing Lender for the amount of such draft so paid. Each such payment shall be made to such Issuing Lender at its address for notices specified to the Borrower in Dollars and in immediately available funds. Interest shall be payable on any such amounts from the date on which the relevant draft is paid until payment in full at a rate equal to (i) until the second Business Day next succeeding the date of the relevant notice (which notice shall be provided on the date the relevant draft is paid), the rate applicable to ABR Loans under the Revolving Facility and (ii) thereafter, the rate set forth in Section 2.15(c). In the case of any such reimbursement in Dollars with respect to a Letter of Credit denominated in a Permitted Foreign Currency, the applicable Issuing Lender shall notify the Borrower of the Dollar Equivalent of the amount of the draft so paid promptly following the determination thereof.
3.6 Obligations Absolute
. The Borrower’s obligations under this Section 3 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable under any and all circumstances and irrespective of any setoff, counterclaim or defense to payment that the Borrower may have or have had against any Issuing Lender, any beneficiary of a Letter of Credit or any other Person. The Borrower also agrees with each Issuing Lender that such Issuing Lender shall not be responsible for, and the Borrower’s Reimbursement Obligations under Section 3.5 shall not be affected by, among other things,
(i) the validity or genuineness of documents or of any endorsements thereon, even though such documents shall in fact later prove to be invalid, fraudulent or forged;
(ii) any dispute between or among the Borrower and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any other party to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred;
(iii) any claims whatsoever of the Borrower against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit or any such transferee;
(iv) any other events or circumstances that, pursuant to applicable law or the applicable customs and practices promulgated by the ICC, are not within the responsibility of such Issuing Lender;
(v) waiver by such Issuing Lender of any requirement that exists for such Issuing Lender’s protection and not the protection of the Borrower or any waiver by such Issuing Lender which does not in fact materially prejudice the Borrower;
(vi) honor of a demand for payment presented electronically even if such Letter of Credit requires that demand be in the form of a draft;
(vii) any payment made by such Issuing Lender in respect of an otherwise complying item presented after the date specified as the expiration date of, or the date by which documents must be received under, such Letter of Credit if presentation after such date is authorized by the Uniform Commercial Code, the ISP or the UCP, as applicable;
125
#93138577v21 
US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




(viii) any payment by such Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or certificate that does not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit; or any payment made by such Issuing Lender under such Letter of Credit to any Person purporting to be a trustee in bankruptcy, debtor-in-possession, assignee for the benefit of creditors, liquidator, receiver or other representative of or successor to any beneficiary or any transferee of such Letter of Credit, including any arising in connection with any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law;
(ix) any adverse change in the relevant exchange rates or in the availability of the relevant Permitted Foreign Currency to the Borrower or any Subsidiary or in the relevant currency markets generally; or
(x) any other circumstance or happening whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, including any other circumstance that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, the Borrower or any Subsidiary, except, in each case, for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or its employees or agents.
No Issuing Lender shall be liable for any error, omission, interruption or delay in transmission, dispatch or delivery of any message or advice, however transmitted, in connection with any Letter of Credit, except for errors, omissions, interruptions or delays resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Issuing Lender or its employees or agents (such gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction). The Borrower agrees that any action taken or omitted by any Issuing Lender under or in connection with any Letter of Credit or the related drafts or documents, if done in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (such gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) and in accordance with the standards of care specified in the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York, shall be binding on the Borrower and shall not result in any liability of such Issuing Lender to the Borrower.
3.7 Role of the Issuing Lender
. Each Lender and the Borrower agree that, in paying any drawing under a Letter of Credit, the Issuing Lenders shall not have any responsibility to obtain any document (other than any sight draft, certificates and documents expressly required by a Letter of Credit) or to ascertain or inquire as to the validity, authenticity or accuracy of any such document (provided, that the Issuing Lenders will determine whether such documents appear on their face to be in order) or the authority of the Person executing or delivering any such document. None of the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Lenders shall be liable to any Lender for:
126
#93138577v21 
US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




(i)  any action taken or omitted in connection herewith at the request or with the approval of the Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders or the Borrower, as applicable;
(ii)  any action taken or omitted in the absence of gross negligence or willful misconduct (such gross negligence or willful misconduct, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction);
(iii) the due execution, effectiveness, validity or enforceability of any document or instrument related to any Letter of Credit or related Application, or any other document, agreement and instrument entered into by such Issuing Lender and the Borrower (or any Restricted Subsidiary) or in favor of such Issuing Lender and relating to such Letter of Credit; or
(iv) any special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages.
The Borrower hereby assumes all risks of the acts or omissions of any beneficiary or transferee with respect to its use of any Letter of Credit; provided, however, that this assumption is not intended to, and shall not, preclude the Borrower’s pursuing such rights and remedies as it may have against the beneficiary or transferee at law or under any other agreement. None of the Issuing Lenders, the Administrative Agent, any of their respective Related Parties nor any correspondent, participant or assignee of the Issuing Lenders shall be liable or responsible for any of the matters described in clauses (i) through (x) of Section 3.6; provided, however, that anything in such clauses to the contrary notwithstanding, the Borrower may have a claim against the relevant Issuing Lender, and such Issuing Lender may be liable to the Borrower, to the extent, but only to the extent, of any direct, as opposed to consequential or exemplary, damages suffered by the Borrower which the Borrower proves were caused by such Issuing Lender’s willful misconduct or gross negligence or such Issuing Lender’s willful failure to pay under any Letter of Credit (such gross negligence, willful misconduct or willful failure to pay, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction) after the presentation to it by the beneficiary of a sight draft and certificate(s) and documents expressly required by and strictly complying with the terms and conditions of a Letter of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Issuing Lenders may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without responsibility for further investigation, and provided that a Letter of Credit is issued permitting transfer then the Issuing Lenders shall not be responsible for the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign a Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason. The Issuing Lenders may send a Letter of Credit or conduct any communication to or from the beneficiary via the Society for Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunication (“SWIFT”) message or overnight courier, or any other commercially reasonable means of communicating with a beneficiary, as agreed to with the Borrower.

The Agents shall not be under any obligation to any Lender to ascertain or to inquire as to the observance or performance of any of the agreements contained in, or conditions of, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to inspect the properties, books or records of any Loan Party, nor shall any Agent be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose

it to liability that is not subject to indemnification under Section 10.5 or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law.
9.4 Reliance by the Agents
. The Agents shall be entitled to rely, and shall be fully protected in relying, upon any instrument, writing, resolution, notice, consent, certificate, affidavit, letter, telecopy, telex or teletype message, statement, order or other document or conversation believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person or Persons and upon advice and statements of legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by the Agents. Each Agent may deem and treat the payee of any Note as the owner thereof for all purposes unless a written notice of assignment, negotiation or transfer thereof shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Each Agent shall be fully justified in failing or refusing to take any action under the applicable Loan Document unless it shall first receive such advice or concurrence of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of any Facility) as it deems appropriate or it shall first be indemnified to its satisfaction by the Lenders against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action. The Agents shall in all cases be fully protected in acting, or in refraining from acting, under the applicable Loan Documents in accordance with a request of the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of any Facility), and such request and any action taken or failure to act pursuant thereto shall be binding upon all the Lenders and all future holders of the Loans. In determining compliance with any conditions hereunder to the making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, an Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender, the Agents may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender, Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender, Issuing Lender, or Swingline Lender prior to the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter of Credit.
9.5 Notice of Default
. Neither Agent shall be deemed to have knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default unless such Agent has received written notice from a Lender or the Borrower referring to this Agreement, describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default.” In the event that an Agent receives such a notice, such Agent shall give notice thereof to the Lenders. The Agents shall take such action with respect to such Default or Event of Default as shall be reasonably directed by the Required Lenders (or, if so specified by this Agreement, all Lenders or the Majority Facility Lenders in respect of any Facility); provided, that unless and until such Agent shall have received such directions, such Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) take such action, or refrain from taking such action, with respect to such Default or Event of Default as it shall deem advisable in the best interests of the Lenders.
9.6 Non-Reliance on Agents and Other Lenders

. Each Lender expressly acknowledges that neither the Agents nor any of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or Affiliates have made any representations or warranties to it and that no act by any Agent hereafter taken, including any review of the affairs of a Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party, shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by any Agent to any Lender. Each Lender represents to the Agents that it has, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own appraisal of and investigation into the business, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates and made its own decision to make its Loans hereunder and enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also represents that it will, independently and without reliance upon any Agent or any other Lender, and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit analysis, appraisals and decisions in taking or not taking action under the applicable Loan Documents, and to make such investigation as it deems necessary to inform itself as to the business, operations, Property, financial and other condition and creditworthiness of the Loan Parties and their Affiliates. Except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Agents hereunder, the Agents shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the business, operations, Property, condition (financial or otherwise), prospects or creditworthiness of any Loan Party or any Affiliate of a Loan Party that may come into the possession of either Agent or any of its officers, directors, employees, agents, attorneys in fact or Affiliates.
9.7 Indemnification
. The Lenders severally agree to indemnify each Agent, any Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender in its capacity as such (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), ratably according to their respective Aggregate Exposure Percentages in effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section 9.7 (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Aggregate Exposure Percentages immediately prior to such date), from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind whatsoever that may at any time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent, any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender in any way relating to or arising out of, the Commitments, this Agreement, any of the other Loan Documents or any documents contemplated by or referred to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent, any Issuing Lender or Swingline Lender under or in connection with any of the foregoing; provided, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent’s, Issuing Lender’s or Swingline Lender’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section 9.7 shall survive the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

9.8 Agent in Its Individual Capacity
. Each Agent and its Affiliates may make loans to, accept deposits from and generally engage in any kind of business with any Loan Party as though such Agent were not an Agent. With respect to its Loans or Swingline Loan made or renewed by it and with respect to any Letter of Credit issued or participated in by it, each Agent shall have the same rights and powers under the applicable Loan Documents as any Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not an Agent, and the terms “Lender” and “Lenders” shall include each Agent in its individual capacity.
9.9 Successor Agents
.
(a) Subject to the appointment of a successor as set forth herein, any Agent may resign upon 30 days’ notice to the Lenders, the Borrower and the other Agent effective upon appointment of a successor Agent. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall be a bank that has an office in New York, New York with a combined capital and surplus of at least $500,000,000 and shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of such retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Agent or any of the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. If no successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders with such consent of the Borrower and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Agent’s giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) appoint a successor Administrative Agent and/or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, with the qualifications set forth above. After any retiring Agent’s resignation as Agent, the provisions of this Section 9 shall inure to its benefit as to any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while it was Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(b) If at any time either the Borrower or the Required Lenders determine that any Person serving as an Agent is a Defaulting Lender, the Borrower by notice to the Lenders and such Person or the Required Lenders by notice to the Borrower and such Person may, subject to the appointment of a successor as set forth herein, remove such Person as an Agent. If such Person is removed as an Agent, the Required Lenders shall appoint from among the Lenders a successor agent for the Lenders, which successor agent shall (unless an Event of Default under Section 8.1(a) or Section 8.1(f) with respect to the Borrower shall have occurred and be continuing) be subject to approval by the Borrower (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), whereupon such successor agent shall succeed to the rights, powers and duties of such retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent’s rights, powers and duties as Agent shall be terminated, without any other or further act or deed on the part of such retiring Agent or any of

the parties to this Agreement or any holders of the Loans. Such removal will, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, be effective on the date a replacement Agent is appointed.
(c) Any resignation by the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section 9 shall also constitute its resignation as Collateral Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, (i) such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Collateral Agent and, if applicable, Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender, provided that, to the extent such successor Administrative Agent is not capable of becoming an Issuing Lender, such successor shall not so succeed and become vested and another Issuing Lender may be appointed in accordance with clause (c) of the definition of “Issuing Lender”, (ii) the retiring Collateral Agent, Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender shall be discharged from all of its respective duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents, and (iii) the successor Issuing Lender shall issue letters of credit in substitution for or to backstop the Letters of Credit, if any, outstanding at the time of such succession or make other arrangements satisfactory to the retiring Issuing Lender to effectively assume the obligations of the retiring Issuing Lender with respect to such Letters of Credit..
9.10 Authorization to Release Liens and Guarantees
. The Agents are hereby irrevocably authorized by each of the Lenders to effect any release or subordination of Liens or Guarantee Obligations contemplated by Section 10.15.
9.11 Agents May File Proofs of Claim

(a) to file a proof of claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, L/C Obligations and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Agents (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Agents and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Agents under Sections 2.9, 3.3 and 10.5) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, each Issuing Lender and the

9.12 Specified Hedge Agreements, Specified Cash Management Obligations and Specified Additional Obligations
. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein or in any Security Documents, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, no Person that obtains the benefits of any guarantee by any Guarantor of the Obligations or any Collateral with respect to any Specified Hedge Agreement entered into by it and the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor or with respect to any Specified Cash Management Obligations or Specified Additional Obligations owed by the Borrower or any Subsidiary Guarantor to such Person shall have any right to notice of any action or to consent to, direct or object to any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document or otherwise in respect of the Collateral (including the release or impairment of any Collateral) other than, if applicable, in its capacity as a Lender and, in such case, only to the extent expressly provided in the Loan Documents. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Section 9 to the contrary, neither Agent shall be required to verify the payment of, or that other satisfactory arrangements have been made with respect to, obligations arising under any Specified Hedge Agreement or with respect to Specified Cash Management Obligations or with respect to Specified Additional Obligations unless such Agent has received written notice of such obligations, together with such supporting documentation as it may request, from the applicable Person to whom such obligations are owed.
9.13 Joint Lead Arrangers, Joint Bookrunners, Syndication Agent and Co-Documentation Agents

Any such waiver and any such amendment, supplement or modification shall apply equally to each of the Lenders and shall be binding upon the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender, the Agents and all future holders of the Loans. In the case of any waiver, the Loan Parties, the Lenders, the Issuing Lender and the Agents shall be restored to their former position and rights hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, and any Default or Event of Default waived shall be deemed to be cured and not continuing unless limited by the terms of such waiver; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Default or Event of Default, or impair any right consequent thereon.

(iii) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the date on which the Borrower proposes that such Refinancing Term Loans shall be made, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree to) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided, that no such Refinancing Term Loans shall be made, and no amendments relating thereto shall become effective, unless to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered documents of a type comparable to those described under clause (x) of Section 2.25(b).(A) customary legal opinions with respect to the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Borrower and each other Loan Party to be party thereto and the enforceability of this Agreement after such Refinancing Term Loans are made giving effect to the any such amendment, the non-conflict of the execution, delivery of and performance of payment obligations under such documentation with this Agreement and with the organizational documents of the Loan Parties and the effectiveness of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement to create a valid security interest, and the effectiveness of specified other Security Documents to perfect such security interests, in specified Collateral to secure the Obligations, including the Refinancing Term Loans and (B) certified copies of the resolutions or other applicable corporate action of each applicable Loan Party approving its entry into such documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.

(ii) except as otherwise permitted by this clause (d) and the definition of the term “Permitted Refinancing Obligations” (including with respect to maturity), all terms applicable to such Refinancing Revolving Commitments shall be substantially identical to, or (when taken as a whole, as shall be determined in good faith by the Borrower) less favorable to the Lenders providing such Refinancing Revolving Commitments than, those applicable to such Refinanced Revolving Commitments, other than for any covenants and other terms applicable solely to any period after the Latest Maturity Date. Any Refinancing Revolving Commitments that have the same terms shall constitute a single Tranche hereunder.
(e) The Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of the date on which the Borrower proposes that such Refinancing Revolving Commitments shall become effective, which shall be a date not less than 10 Business Days (or such shorter period as the Administrative Agent may agree to) after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent; provided, that no such Refinancing Revolving Commitments, and no amendments relating thereto, shall become effective, unless to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, the Borrower shall deliver or cause to be delivered documents of a type comparable to those described under clause (x) of Section 2.25(b).(A) customary legal opinions with respect to the due authorization, execution and delivery by the Borrower and each other Loan Party to be party thereto and the enforceability of this Agreement after such Refinancing Revolving Commitments are made giving effect to the any such amendment, the non-conflict of the execution, delivery of and performance of payment obligations under such documentation with this Agreement and with the organizational documents of the Loan Parties and the effectiveness of the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement to create a valid security interest, and the effectiveness of specified other Security Documents to perfect such security interests, in specified Collateral to secure the Obligations, including the Refinancing Revolving Commitments and (B) certified copies of the resolutions or other applicable corporate action of each applicable Loan Party approving its entry into such documents and the transactions contemplated thereby.
(f) (e) Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, if following the Closing Date, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified an ambiguity, mistake, omission, defect, or inconsistency, in each case, in any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend such provision and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document if the same is not objected to in writing by the Required Lenders within five Business Days following receipt of notice thereof; it being understood that posting such amendment electronically on the Platform to the Required Lenders shall be deemed adequate receipt of notice of such amendment.

(g) (f) Furthermore, notwithstanding the foregoing, this Agreement may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified in accordance with Sections 2.25, 2.26, 7.11 and 10.16.
(h) (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in connection with any amendment, modification, waiver or other action requiring the consent or approval of the Required Lenders, Lenders that are Debt Fund Affiliates shall not be permitted, in the aggregate, to account for more than 49% of the amounts actually included in determining whether the threshold in the definition of Required Lenders has been satisfied. The voting power of each Lender that is a Debt Fund Affiliate shall be reduced, pro rata, to the extent necessary in order to comply with the immediately preceding sentence.
(i) (h) The Lenders hereby agree that the Borrower may elect at any time after the Closing Date to replace the ABL Facility Agreement entered into on the Closing Date with a revolving credit facility or other debt agreement (a “Pari Passu Replacement Agreement”) that would be treated as an “ABL Facility Agreement” (as defined in and for the purposes of the applicable provisions of this Agreement) but that would not be asset-based and would be secured by all the Collateral on a pari passu basis with the Secured Obligations that are secured on a first-lien basis pursuant to an Other Intercreditor Agreement, provided that the aggregate principal amount thereunder is permitted by Section 7.2(aa). The Lenders hereby further agree that in connection with the establishment of a Pari Passu Replacement Agreement, this Agreement, the Guarantee and Collateral Agreement and the other Loan Documents may be amended, amended and restated, modified or supplemented to reflect such Pari Passu Replacement Agreement, in each case by the Administrative Agent (or Collateral Agent, as applicable) and the Borrower, but without the consent of any Lender.
(j) Notwithstanding the foregoing, any provision of Section 2.3 may not be amended, modified or waived without the prior written consent of each BrandCo Lender directly and adversely affected thereby, which consent shall be sufficient to effect such amendment, modification or waiver without regard for any Required Lender consent.

who do not wish to receive information other than information that is publicly available, or not material with respect to Holdings, the Borrower or its Subsidiaries, or their respective securities, for purposes of the United States Federal and state securities laws (collectively, “Public Information”). The Borrower hereby agrees that it will use commercially reasonable efforts to identify that portion of the Borrower Materials that is Public Information and that (w) all such Borrower Materials 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; (x) by marking Borrower Materials “PUBLIC,” the Borrower shall be deemed to have authorized the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders to treat such Borrower Materials as containing only Public Information (although it may be sensitive and proprietary) (provided, however, that to the extent such Borrower Materials constitute Confidential Information, they shall be treated as set forth in Section 10.14); (y) all Borrower Materials marked “PUBLIC” are permitted to be made available through a portion of the Platform designated “Public Side Information;” and (z) 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 designated “Public Side Information”; provided, that there is no requirement that the Borrower identify any such information as “PUBLIC.”
(d) THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” THE AGENT PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER MATERIALS OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE PLATFORM, AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE BORROWER MATERIALS.

Swingline Lender.

Furthermore, 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 United States Federal securities laws, to make reference to Borrower Materials that are not made available through the “Public Side Information” portion of the Platform and that may contain information other than Public Information.
(f) The Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices (including telephonic notices of borrowing) believed in good faith by the Administrative Agent to be given by or on behalf of the Borrower even if (i) such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein, or (ii) the terms thereof, as understood by the recipient, varied from any confirmation thereof. All telephonic notices to and other telephonic communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.
10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies
.
(a) No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of any Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.
(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein or in any other Loan Document, the authority to enforce rights and remedies hereunder and under the other Loan Documents against the Loan Parties or any of them shall be vested exclusively in, and all actions and proceedings at law in connection with such enforcement shall be instituted and maintained exclusively by, the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 8.1 for the benefit of all the Lenders, the Issuing Lenders and the Swingline Lender; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not prohibit (i) each Agent from exercising on its own behalf the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Agent) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (ii) each Issuing Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Issuing Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and the Swingline Lender from exercising the rights and remedies that inure to its benefit (solely in its capacity as Swingline Lender, as the case may be) hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, (iii) any Lender from exercising setoff rights in accordance

with Section 10.7(b) (subject to the terms of Section 10.7(a)), or (iviii) any Lender from filing proofs of claim or appearing and filing pleadings on its own behalf during the pendency of a proceeding relative to any Loan Party under any Debtor Relief Law.
10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties

. Except with respect to Taxes which are addressed in Section 2.20, the Borrower agrees:
(a) to pay or reimburse each Agent for all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the syndication of the Facilities (other than fees payable to syndicate members) and the development, preparation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and any other documents prepared in connection herewith or therewith and any amendment, supplement or modification hereto or thereto, and, as to the Agents only, the administration of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of a single firm of counsel to the Agents (plus one firm of special regulatory counsel and one firm of local counsel per material jurisdiction as may reasonably be necessary in connection with collateral matters) in connection with all of the foregoing;
(b) to pay or reimburse each Lender and each Agent for all their reasonable and documented out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement of any rights under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents referred to in Section 10.5(a) above (including all such costs and expenses incurred in connection with any legal proceeding, including any proceeding under any Debtor Relief Law or in connection with any workout or restructuring), including the documented fees and disbursements of a single firm of counsel and, if necessary, a single firm of special regulatory counsel and a single firm of local counsel per material jurisdiction as may reasonably be necessary, for the Agents and the Lenders, taken as a whole and, in the event of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, where the Agent or Lender affected by such conflict informs the Borrower and thereafter retains its own counsel, one additional counsel for each Lender or Agent or group of Lenders or Agents subject to such conflict; and
(c) to pay, indemnify or reimburse each Lender, each Agent, each Issuing Lender, the Swingline Lender, each Joint Lead Arranger, each Joint Bookrunner and their respective Affiliates, and their respective partners that are natural persons, members that are natural persons, officers, directors, employees, trustees, advisors, agents and controlling Persons (each, an “Indemnitee”) for, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from and against any and all other liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, costs, expenses or disbursements arising out of any actions, judgments or suits of any kind or nature whatsoever, arising out of or in
212

connection with any claim, action or proceeding (any of the foregoing, a “Proceeding”) relating to or otherwise with respect to the execution, delivery, enforcement, performance and administration of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any such other documents referred to in Section 10.5(a) above and the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including any of the foregoing relating to the use of proceeds of the Loans, Letters of Credit (including any refusal by the Issuing Bank to honor a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit if the documents presented in connection with such demand do not strictly comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit) or the violation of, noncompliance with or liability under, any Environmental Law applicable to the operations of the Borrower, any of its Subsidiaries or any of the Properties and the reasonable fees and disbursements and other charges of legal counsel in connection with claims, actions or proceedings by any Indemnitee against the Borrower hereunder (all the foregoing in this clause (c), collectively, the “Indemnified Liabilities”);
provided, that, the Borrower shall not have any obligation hereunder to any Indemnitee with respect to Indemnified Liabilities to the extent such Indemnified Liabilities have resulted from (i) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or its Related Persons as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision (or settlement tantamount thereto), (ii) a material breach of the Loan Documents by such Indemnitee or its Related Persons as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision (or settlement tantamount thereto), (iii) disputes solely among Indemnitees or their Related Persons and not arising from any act or omission by any Parent Company, Holdings, Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries (it being understood that this clause (iii) shall not apply to the indemnification of an Agent or an Arranger in a suit involving an Agent or an Arranger, in each case, in its capacity as such, unless such suit has resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Agent or Arranger as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction in a final non-appealable decision (or settlement tantamount thereto)) or (iv) any settlement of any Proceeding effected without the Borrower’s consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), but if settled with the Borrower’s written consent or if there is a judgment by a court of competent jurisdiction in any such Proceeding, the Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless each Indemnitee from and against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses by reason of such settlement or judgment in accordance with the other provisions of this Section 10.5.

(3) in the case of an assignment under the Revolving Facility, each Issuing Lender and Swingline Lender.
(ii) Subject to Sections 2.24 and 2.26(e), assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(v) below, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption or Affiliate Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, the Assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption or Affiliate Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption or Affiliate Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption or Affiliate Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be subject to the obligations under and entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20, 2.21, 10.5 and 10.14). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.6 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section 10.6 (and will be required to comply therewith), other than any sale to a Disqualified Institution, which shall be null and void.
(iv) The Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amount of the Loans and L/C Obligations owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement (and the entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent demonstrable error for such purposes), notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Assumption or Affiliate Lender Assignment and Assumption, as applicable, executed by an assigning Lender and an Assignee (except as contemplated by Sections 2.24 and 2.26(e)), the Assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire (unless the Assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder) and all applicable tax forms, the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6 (unless waived by the Administrative Agent) and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Assumption and promptly record the information contained therein in the Register. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(c) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of any Person, in compliance with applicable law, sell participations (other than to any Disqualified Institution) to one or more banks or other entities (including Other Affiliates) (a “Participant”), in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans owing to it); provided, that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders, the Swingline Lender and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that such agreement may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver that (1) requires the consent of each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby pursuant to the proviso to the second sentence of Section 10.1 and (2) directly affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (c)(ii) of this Section 10.6, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.19, 2.20 and 2.21 (if such Participant agrees to have related obligations thereunder (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.20 shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section 10.6. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Lender shall be permitted to sell participations under this Agreement to any Disqualified Institutions without the written consent of the Borrower.
(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.19, 2.20 or 2.21 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent to such greater amounts. No Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.20 unless such Participant complies with Section 2.20(e), (g) or (j), as (and to the extent) applicable, as if such Participant were a Lender (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.20 shall be delivered to the participating Lender).
(iii) Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for U.S. federal income tax purposes as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices a register on which it enters the name and addresses 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”); provided, that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that the relevant parties, acting reasonably and in good faith, determine that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under
217
#93138577v21 
US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. Unless otherwise required by the IRS, any disclosure required by the foregoing sentence shall be made by the relevant Lender directly and solely to the IRS. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (it its capacity as such) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
(d) Any Lender may, without the consent of or notice to the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central banking authority, and this Section 10.6 shall not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided, that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or Assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(e) The Borrower, upon receipt of written notice from the relevant Lender, agrees to issue Notes to any Lender requiring the same (in the case of an assignment, following surrender by the assigning Lender of all Notes representing its assigned interests).
(f) The Borrower may prohibit any assignment if it would require the Borrower to make any filing with any Governmental Authority or qualify any Loan or Note under the laws of any jurisdiction and the Borrower shall be entitled to request and receive such information and assurances as it may reasonably request from any Lender or any Assignee to determine whether any such filing or qualification is required or whether any assignment is otherwise in accordance with applicable law.
(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Term Loans hereunder to any Other Affiliate (including any Debt Fund Affiliate), but only if:
(i) no Default has occurred and is continuing or would result therefrom;
(ii) the assigning Lender and Other Affiliate purchasing such Lender’s Term Loans, shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an assignment agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto or such other form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (an “Affiliate Lender Assignment and Assumption”) in lieu of an Assignment and Assumption;
(iii) after giving effect to such assignment, Other Affiliates (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) shall not, in the aggregate, own or hold Term Loans with an aggregate principal amount in excess of 20% of the principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding (calculated as of the date of such purchase); and
218

US-DOCS\115367111.15
LEGAL_US_E # 147442669.29




(iv) such Other Affiliate (other than Debt Fund Affiliates) shall (A) at the time of such assignment affirm the No Undisclosed Information Representation, (B) at all times thereafter be subject to the voting restrictions specified in Section 10.1 and (C) at the time of any sale by it of any portion of such Term Loans, or Specified Refinancing Term Loans or New Term Loans (other than a sale to another Other Affiliate), affirm the No Undisclosed Information Representation.
(h) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Lender may assign all or any portion of its Term Loans of any Tranche hereunder to Holdings or any of its Subsidiaries, but only if:

xi.it will not challenge or question or support any other Person in challenging or questioning in any proceeding the validity or enforceability of any First Lien Obligations of any Series or any First Lien Collateral Document or the validity, attachment, perfection or priority of any Lien under any First Lien Collateral Document or the validity or enforceability of the priorities, rights or duties established by or other provisions of this Agreement; provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any First Lien Claimholder from challenging or questioning the validity or enforceability of any First Lien Obligations constituting

LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




unmatured interest or the validity of any Lien relating thereto pursuant to Section 502(b)(2) of the Bankruptcy Code,
xii.it will not take or cause to be taken any action the purpose or intent of which is, or could be, to interfere, hinder or delay, in any manner, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shared Collateral by the Applicable Collateral Agent,
xiii.except as provided in Section 2.2, it shall have no right to and shall not otherwise
c.direct the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to exercise any right, remedy or power with respect to any Shared Collateral (including pursuant to any other intercreditor agreement) or
d.consent to, or object to, the exercise by, or any forbearance from exercising by, the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder represented by it of any right, remedy or power with respect to any Collateral,
xiv.it will not institute any suit or assert in any suit, bankruptcy, insolvency or other proceeding any claim against the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder represented by it seeking damages from or other relief by way of specific performance, instructions or otherwise with respect to any Collateral and
xv.it will not attempt, directly or indirectly, whether by judicial proceedings or otherwise, to challenge the enforceability of any provision of this Agreement;
provided that nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any of the Applicable Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder to (x) enforce this Agreement or (y) contest or support any other Person in contesting the enforceability of any Lien purporting to secure obligations not constituting First Lien Obligations.
18.Each First Lien Claimholder hereby agrees that if it shall obtain possession of any Shared Collateral or shall realize any proceeds or payment in respect of any Shared Collateral, pursuant to any First Lien Collateral Document or by the exercise of any rights available to it under applicable law or in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding or through any other exercise of remedies (including pursuant to any intercreditor agreement), at any time prior to the Discharge of each of the First Lien Obligations, then it shall hold such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment in trust for the other First Lien Claimholders having a security interest in such Shared Collateral and promptly transfer any such Shared Collateral, proceeds or payment, as the case may be, to the Applicable Collateral Agent, to be distributed by such Applicable Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.1(a) hereof, provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Shared Collateral purchased by any First Lien Claimholder for cash pursuant to any exercise of remedies permitted hereunder.
19.None of the Applicable Collateral Agent, any Applicable Representative or any other First Lien Claimholder shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by the
24
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




Applicable Collateral Agent, such Applicable Representative or any other First Lien Claimholder with respect to any Collateral in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.
bl.Automatic Release of Liens.
20.If, at any time any Shared Collateral is transferred to a third party or otherwise disposed of, in each case, in connection with any enforcement by the Applicable Collateral Agent in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, then (whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding is pending at the time) the Liens in favor of the other Collateral Agents for the benefit of each Series of First Lien Claimholders (or in favor of such other First Lien Claimholders if directly secured by such Liens) upon such Shared Collateral will automatically be released and discharged upon final conclusion of such disposition as and when, but only to the extent, such Liens of the Applicable Collateral Agent on such Shared Collateral are released and discharged; provided that any proceeds of any Shared Collateral realized therefrom shall be applied pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof. If in connection with any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies by the Applicable Collateral Agent, the Applicable Collateral Agent or related Applicable Representative of such Series of First Lien Obligations releases any guarantor from its obligation under a guarantee of the Series of First Lien Obligations for which it serves as agent prior to a Discharge of such Series of First Lien Obligations, such guarantor also shall be released from its guarantee of all other First Lien Obligations. If in connection with any such foreclosure or other exercise of remedies by the Applicable Collateral Agent, the equity interests of any Person are foreclosed upon or otherwise disposed of and the Applicable Collateral Agent releases its Lien on the property or assets of such Person, then the Liens of each other Collateral Agent (or in favor of such other First Lien Claimholders if directly secured by such Liens) with respect to any Shared Collateral consisting of the property or assets of such Person will be automatically released to the same extent as the Liens of the Applicable Collateral Agent are released; provided that any proceeds of any such equity interests foreclosed upon where the Applicable Collateral Agent releases its Lien on the assets of such Person on which another Series of First Lien Obligations holds a Lien on any of the assets of such Person (any such assets, the “Underlying Assets”) which Lien is released as provided in this sentence (any such Proceeds being referred to herein as “Equity Release Proceeds” regardless of whether or not such other Series of First Lien Obligations holds a Lien on such equity interests so disposed of) shall be applied pursuant to Section 2.1 hereof.
21.Without limiting the rights of the Applicable Collateral Agent under Section 4.2, each Collateral Agent and each Representative agrees to execute and deliver (at the sole cost and expense of the Grantors) all such authorizations and other instruments as shall reasonably be requested by the Applicable Collateral Agent to evidence and confirm any release of Shared Collateral, Underlying Assets or guarantee provided for in this Section.
bm.Certain Agreements with Respect to Bankruptcy or Insolvency Proceedings.
22.This Agreement shall continue in full force and effect notwithstanding the commencement of any proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code or any other Federal, state or
25
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law by or against any Grantor or any of its subsidiaries.
23.If any Grantor shall become subject to a case (a “Bankruptcy Case”) under the Bankruptcy Code and shall, as debtor(s)-in-possession, move for approval of financing (“DIP Financing”) to be provided by one or more lenders (the “DIP Lenders”) under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or the use of cash collateral under Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code, each First Lien Claimholder (other than any Controlling Claimholder or any Representative of any Controlling Claimholder) agrees that it will not raise any objection to any such financing or to the Liens on the Shared Collateral securing the same (“DIP Financing Liens”) or to any use of cash collateral that constitutes Shared Collateral, unless a Representative of the Controlling Claimholders shall then oppose or object to such DIP Financing or such DIP Financing Liens or use of cash collateral and
xvi.to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens are senior to the Liens on any such Shared Collateral for the benefit of the Controlling Claimholders, each Non-Controlling Claimholder will subordinate its Liens with respect to such Shared Collateral on the same terms as the Liens of the Controlling Claimholders (other than any Liens of any First Lien Claimholders constituting DIP Financing Liens) are subordinated thereto, and
xvii.to the extent that such DIP Financing Liens rank pari passu with the Liens on any such Shared Collateral granted to secure the First Lien Obligations of the Controlling Claimholders, each Non-Controlling Claimholder will confirm the priorities with respect to such Shared Collateral as set forth herein,
in each case so long as
(A) the First Lien Claimholders of each Series retain the benefit of their Liens on all such Shared Collateral pledged to the DIP Lenders, including proceeds thereof arising after the commencement of such proceeding, with the same priority vis-à-vis all the other First Lien Claimholders (other than any Liens of the First Lien Claimholders constituting DIP Financing Liens) as existed prior to the commencement of the Bankruptcy Case,
(B)  the First Lien Claimholders of each Series are granted Liens on any additional collateral pledged to any First Lien Claimholders as adequate protection or otherwise in connection with such DIP Financing or use of cash collateral, with the same priority vis-à-vis the First Lien Claimholders as set forth in this Agreement (other than any Liens of any First Lien Claimholders constituting DIP Financing Liens),
(C)  if any amount of such DIP Financing or cash collateral is applied to repay any of the First Lien Obligations, such amount is applied pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of this Agreement, and
(D)  if any First Lien Claimholders are granted adequate protection with respect to the First Lien Obligations subject hereto, including in the form of periodic payments, in connection with such use of cash collateral, the proceeds of such adequate protection are applied pursuant to Section 2.1(a) of this Agreement;
26
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




provided that
(x) the First Lien Claimholders of each Series shall have a right to object to the grant of a Lien to secure the DIP Financing over any Collateral subject to Liens in favor of the First Lien Claimholders of such Series or its Representative that shall not constitute Shared Collateral (unless such Collateral fails to constitute Shared Collateral because (i) the Lien in respect thereof constitutes a Declined Lien with respect to such First Lien Claimholders or their Representative or Collateral Agent or (ii) such Collateral constitutes Initial Other First Lien Specified Collateral);
(y) the First Lien Claimholders receiving adequate protection shall not object to any other First Lien Claimholder receiving adequate protection comparable to any adequate protection granted to such First Lien Claimholders in connection with a DIP Financing or use of cash collateral; and
(z) until the Discharge of Initial Other First Lien Agreement, only the Initial Other First Lien Claimholders or their Representative shall be permitted to propose to provide a DIP Financing.
24.If any First Lien Claimholder is granted adequate protection
xviii.in the form of Liens on any additional collateral, then each other First Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to seek, and each First Lien Claimholder will consent and not object to, adequate protection in the form of Liens on such additional collateral with the same priority vis-à-vis the First Lien Claimholders as set forth in this Agreement,
xix.in the form of a superpriority or other administrative claim, then each other First Lien Claimholder shall be entitled to seek, and each First Lien Claimholder will consent and not object to, adequate protection in the form of a pari passu superpriority or administrative claim or
xx.in the form of periodic or other cash payments,
then the proceeds of such adequate protection must be applied to all First Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 2.1.
bn.Reinstatement.
In the event that any of the First Lien Obligations shall be paid in full and such payment or any part thereof shall subsequently, for whatever reason (including an order or judgment for disgorgement of a preference under Title 11 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar law, or the settlement of any claim in respect thereof), be required to be returned or repaid, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall be fully applicable thereto until all such First Lien Obligations shall again have been paid in full in cash. This Section 2.6 shall survive termination of this Agreement.
bo.Insurance and Condemnation Awards.
27
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




As among the First Lien Claimholders, the Applicable Collateral Agent (acting at the direction of the Applicable Representative), shall have the right, but not the obligation, to adjust or settle any insurance policy or claim covering or constituting Shared Collateral in the event of any loss thereunder and to approve any award granted in any condemnation or similar proceeding affecting the Shared Collateral. To the extent any Collateral Agent or any other First Lien Claimholder receives proceeds of such insurance policy and such proceeds are not permitted or required to be returned to any Grantor under the applicable First Lien Documents, such proceeds shall be turned over to the Applicable Collateral Agent for application as provided in Section 2.1 hereof.
bp.Refinancings.
The First Lien Obligations of any Series may, subject to Section 5.14, be Refinanced, in whole or in part, in each case, without notice to, or the consent (except to the extent a consent is otherwise required to permit the Refinancing transaction under any First Lien Document) of any First Lien Claimholder of any other Series, all without affecting the priorities provided for herein or the other provisions hereof; provided that the Representative and Collateral Agent of the holders of any such Refinancing Indebtedness shall have executed a Joinder Agreement on behalf of the holders of such Refinancing Indebtedness. If such Refinancing Indebtedness is intended to constitute a Replacement Credit Agreement or Replacement Initial Other First Lien Agreement, the Company shall so state in its Designation.
bq.Gratuitous Bailee/Agent for Perfection.
25.The Applicable Collateral Agent shall be entitled to hold any Possessory Collateral constituting Shared Collateral.
26.Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Collateral Agent agrees to hold any Possessory Collateral constituting Shared Collateral and any other Shared Collateral from time to time in its possession or control (or in the possession or control of its agents or bailees) as gratuitous bailee for the benefit of each other First Lien Claimholder (such bailment being intended, among other things, to satisfy the requirements of Sections 8-106(d)(3), 8-301(a)(2) and 9-313(c) of the UCC) and any assignee, solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest granted in such Shared Collateral, if any, pursuant to the applicable First Lien Collateral Documents, in each case, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.9. Solely with respect to any Deposit Accounts constituting Shared Collateral under the control (within the meaning of Section 9-104 of the UCC) of any Collateral Agent, each such Collateral Agent agrees to also hold control over such Deposit Accounts as gratuitous agent for each other First Lien Claimholder and any assignee solely for the purpose of perfecting the security interest in such Deposit Accounts, subject to the terms and conditions of this Section 2.9.
27.No Collateral Agent shall have any obligation whatsoever to any First Lien Claimholder to ensure that the Possessory Collateral and Control Collateral is genuine or owned by any of the Grantors or to preserve rights or benefits of any Person except as expressly set forth in this Section 2.9. The duties or responsibilities of each Collateral Agent under this Section 2.9 shall be limited solely to holding any Possessory Collateral constituting Shared
28
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




Collateral or any other Shared Collateral in its possession or control as gratuitous bailee (and with respect to Deposit Accounts, as gratuitous agent) in accordance with this Section 2.9 and delivering the Possessory Collateral constituting Shared Collateral as provided in Section 2.9(e) below.
28.None of the Collateral Agents or any of the First Lien Claimholders shall have by reason of the First Lien Documents, this Agreement or any other document a fiduciary relationship in respect of the other Collateral Agents or any other First Lien Claimholder, and each Collateral Agent and each First Lien Claimholder hereby waives and releases the other Collateral Agents and First Lien Claimholders from all claims and liabilities arising pursuant to any Collateral Agent’s role under this Section 2.9 as gratuitous bailee with respect to the Possessory Collateral constituting Shared Collateral or any other Shared Collateral in its possession or control (and with respect to the Deposit Accounts, as gratuitous agent).
29.At any time the Applicable Collateral Agent is no longer the Applicable Collateral Agent, such outgoing Applicable Collateral Agent shall deliver the remaining Possessory Collateral constituting Shared Collateral in its possession (if any) together with any necessary endorsements (which endorsement shall be without recourse and without any representation or warranty), first, to the then Applicable Collateral Agent to the extent First Lien Obligations remain outstanding and second, to the applicable Grantor to the extent no First Lien Obligations remain outstanding (in each case, so as to allow such Person to obtain possession or control of such Shared Collateral) or to whomever may be lawfully entitled to receive the same, including pursuant to any Junior Lien Intercreditor Agreement. The outgoing Applicable Collateral Agent further agrees to take all other action reasonably requested by the then Applicable Collateral Agent at the expense of the Company in connection with the then Applicable Collateral Agent obtaining a first-priority security interest in the Shared Collateral.
br.Amendments to First Lien Collateral Documents.
30.Without the prior written consent of each other Collateral Agent, each Collateral Agent agrees that no First Lien Collateral Document may be amended, restated, amended and restated, supplemented, replaced or Refinanced or otherwise modified from time to time or entered into to the extent such amendment, supplement, Refinancing or modification, or the terms of any new First Lien Collateral Document, would be prohibited by, or would require any Grantor to act or refrain from acting in a manner that would violate, any of the terms of this Agreement.
31.In determining whether an amendment to any First Lien Collateral Document is permitted by this Section 2.10, each Collateral Agent may conclusively rely on an officer’s certificate of the Company stating that such amendment is permitted by this Section 2.10.
bs.Similar Liens and Agreements.
32.Each Collateral Agent agrees, for itself and on behalf of each applicable First Lien Claimholder, whether or not any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding has commenced by or against the Company or any other Grantor, that it shall not acquire or hold any Lien on any assets
29
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




of the Company or any other Grantor securing any First Lien Obligations that are not also subject to the Lien in respect of the other First Lien Obligations under any other Series of First Lien Documents except to the extent otherwise specifically permitted by the applicable Series of First Lien Documents; provided, that:
xxi.this Section 2.11(a) will not apply with respect to the carve-outs set forth in Section 2.11(c), and
xxii.this provision will not be violated with respect to any particular Series if the First Lien Document for such Series prohibits the Collateral Agent for that Series from accepting a Lien on such asset or property or such Collateral Agent otherwise expressly declines to accept a Lien on such asset or property (any such prohibited or declined Liens with respect to a particular Series, a “Declined Lien”).
If any Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholder shall (nonetheless and in breach hereof) acquire or hold any Lien on any collateral of a Grantor that is not also subject to the Lien in respect of the First Lien Obligations under any other Series of First Lien Documents, then such Collateral Agent shall, without the need for any further consent of any part and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any other document, be deemed to also hold and have held such Lien for the benefit of each other Collateral Agent as security for all other First Lien Obligations (subject to the terms hereof) and shall promptly notify each other Collateral Agent in writing of the existence of such Lien and in any event any amount received or distributed on account of such Liens shall be subject to Section 2.1 hereof.
33.In furtherance of, but subject to, the foregoing, the parties hereto agree, subject to the other provisions of this Agreement:
xxiii.upon request by any Collateral Agent, to cooperate in good faith (and to direct their counsel to cooperate in good faith) from time to time in order to determine the specific items included in the Shared Collateral and the steps taken to perfect their respective Liens thereon and the identity of the respective parties obligated under the Credit Agreement Documents and the Other First Lien Documents;
xxiv.that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the Liens on Shared Collateral securing the Credit Agreement Obligations and the Other First Lien Obligations shall, subject to the terms and conditions of Section 5.2, be in all material respects the same forms of documents as one another, except that the documents and agreements creating or evidencing the Liens securing the Other First Lien Obligations may contain additional provisions as may be necessary or appropriate to establish the intercreditor arrangements among the various separate classes of creditors holding Other First Lien Obligations and to address any Declined Lien or the Initial Other First Lien Specified Collateral and
xxv.Collateral consisting of Initial Other First Lien Specified Collateral shall solely secure and shall be applied as specified in the Initial Other First Lien Agreement and the Initial Other First Lien Documents and will not constitute Shared Collateral.
30
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




34.Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement or any other First Lien Documents to the contrary, Collateral consisting of cash and cash equivalents pledged to secure reimbursement obligations in respect of letters of credit shall solely secure and shall be applied as specified in the Credit Agreement or Other First Lien Agreement, as applicable, pursuant to which such letters of credit were issued and will not constitute Shared Collateral or Non-Shared Collateral.
ARTICLE III.

EXISTENCE AND AMOUNTS OF LIENS AND OBLIGATIONS
Whenever any Applicable Collateral Agent or any Applicable Representative shall be required, in connection with the exercise of its rights or the performance of its obligations hereunder, to determine the existence or amount of any First Lien Obligations of any Series, the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Series of First Lien Obligations then outstanding, or the Shared Collateral subject to any Lien securing the First Lien Obligations of any Series, it may request that such information be furnished to it in writing by each other Representative or each other Collateral Agent and shall be entitled to make such determination or not make any determination on the basis of the information so furnished; provided, however, that if a Representative or a Collateral Agent shall fail or refuse reasonably promptly to provide the requested information, the requesting Applicable Collateral Agent or Applicable Representative shall be entitled to make any such determination or not make any determination by such method as it may, in the exercise of its good faith judgment, determine, including by reliance upon a certificate of the Company. Each Applicable Collateral Agent and each Applicable Representative may rely conclusively, and shall be fully protected in so relying, on any determination made by it in accordance with the provisions of the preceding sentence (or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction) and shall have no liability to any Grantor, any First Lien Claimholder or any other person as a result of such determination.
ARTICLE IV.

THE APPLICABLE COLLATERAL AGENT
bt.Authority.
35.Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, nothing herein shall be construed to impose any fiduciary or other duty on any Applicable Collateral Agent to any Non-Controlling Claimholder or give any Non-Controlling Claimholder the right to direct any Applicable Collateral Agent, except that each Applicable Collateral Agent shall be obligated to distribute proceeds of any Shared Collateral in accordance with Section 2.1 hereof and act in accordance with Section 2.2 hereof.
36.In furtherance of the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Claimholder acknowledges and agrees that the Applicable Collateral Agent shall be entitled, for the benefit of the First Lien Claimholders, to sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of or deal with any Shared Collateral as provided herein and in the First Lien Collateral Documents, as applicable, without regard to any rights to which the Non-Controlling Claimholders would otherwise be entitled as a result of the
31
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




First Lien Obligations held by such Non-Controlling Claimholders. Without limiting the foregoing, each Non-Controlling Claimholder agrees that none of the Applicable Collateral Agent, the Applicable Representative or any other First Lien Claimholder shall have any duty or obligation first to marshal or realize upon any type of Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any of the First Lien Obligations), or to sell, dispose of or otherwise liquidate all or any portion of such Shared Collateral (or any other Collateral securing any First Lien Obligations), in any manner that would maximize the return to the Non-Controlling Claimholders, notwithstanding that the order and timing of any such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation may affect the amount of proceeds actually received by the Non-Controlling Claimholders from such realization, sale, disposition or liquidation. Each of the First Lien Claimholders waives any claim it may now or hereafter have against any Collateral Agent or Representative of any other Series of First Lien Obligations or any other First Lien Claimholder of any other Series arising out of:
xxvi.any actions which any such Collateral Agent, Representative or any First Lien Claimholder represented by it take or omit to take (including actions with respect to the creation, perfection or continuation of Liens on any Collateral, actions with respect to the foreclosure upon, sale, release or depreciation of, or failure to realize upon, any of the Collateral and actions with respect to the collection of any claim for all or any part of the First Lien Obligations from any account debtor, guarantor or any other party) in accordance with the First Lien Collateral Documents or any other agreement related thereto or in connection with the collection of the First Lien Obligations or the valuation, use, protection or release of any security for the First Lien Obligations; provided that nothing in this clause (i) shall be construed to prevent or impair the rights of any Collateral Agent or Representative to enforce this Agreement,
xxvii.any election by any Applicable Representative or any holders of First Lien Obligations, in any proceeding instituted under the Bankruptcy Code, of the application of Section 1111(b) of the Bankruptcy Code, or
xxviii.subject to Section 2.5, any borrowing, or grant of a security interest or administrative expense priority under Section 364 of the Bankruptcy Code or any equivalent provision of any other Bankruptcy Law, by the Company or any of its Subsidiaries, as debtor-in-possession.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Applicable Collateral Agent shall not
(x)  accept any Shared Collateral in full or partial satisfaction of any First Lien Obligations pursuant to Section 9-620 of the Uniform Commercial Code of any jurisdiction, without the consent of each Representative representing holders of First Lien Obligations for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral or
(y)  “credit bid” for or purchase (other than for cash) Shared Collateral at any public, private or judicial foreclosure (including in a credit bid pursuant to Section 363 of Title 11 of the U.S. Code) upon such Shared Collateral, without the consent of each Representative representing holders of First Lien Obligations for whom such Collateral constitutes Shared Collateral.
32
LEGAL_US_E # 147863226.8




Nothing in the provisions of this Agreement, including the foregoing clause (x) and (y), shall limit or affect the rights of any Collateral Agent with respect to the Non-Shared Collateral.
bu.Power-of-Attorney.
Each Non-Controlling Representative and Collateral Agent that is not the Applicable Collateral Agent, for itself and on behalf of each other First Lien Claimholder of the Series for whom it is acting, hereby irrevocably appoints the Applicable Collateral Agent and any officer or agent of the Applicable Collateral Agent, which appointment is coupled with an interest with full power of substitution, as its true and lawful attorney-in-fact with full irrevocable power and authority in the place and stead of such Non-Controlling Representative, Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholder, to take any and all appropriate action and to execute any and all documents and instruments which may be necessary to accomplish the purposes of this Agreement, including the exercise of any and all remedies under each First Lien Collateral Document with respect to Shared Collateral and the execution of releases in connection therewith.
ARTICLE V.

MISCELLANEOUS
bv.Integration/Conflicts.
This Agreement, together with the other First Lien Documents and the First Lien Collateral Documents, represents the entire agreement of each of the Grantors and the First Lien Claimholders with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof and thereof. There are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by any Representative, Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholder relative to the subject matter hereof and thereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or therein.

bw.Effectiveness; Continuing Nature of this Agreement; Severability.
This Agreement shall become effective when executed and delivered by the parties hereto. This is a continuing agreement and the First Lien Claimholders of any Series may continue, at any time and without notice to any First Lien Claimholder of any other Series, to extend credit and other financial accommodations and lend monies to or for the benefit of the Company or any Grantor constituting First Lien Obligations in reliance hereon. Each Representative and each Collateral Agent, on behalf of itself and each other First Lien Claimholder represented by it, hereby waives any right it may have under applicable law to revoke this Agreement or any of the provisions of this Agreement.

unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. The parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions with valid provisions the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to those of the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provisions. All references to the Company or any other Grantor shall include the Company or such Grantor as debtor and debtor in possession and any receiver, trustee or similar person for the Company or any other Grantor (as the case may be) in any Insolvency or Liquidation Proceeding. This Agreement shall terminate and be of no further force and effect with respect to any Representative or Collateral Agent and the First Lien Claimholders represented by such Representative or Collateral Agent and their First Lien Obligations, on the date on which there has been a Discharge of such Series of First Lien Obligations, subject to the rights of the First Lien Claimholders under Section 2.6; provided, however, that such termination shall not relieve any such party of its obligations incurred hereunder prior to the date of such termination.
bx.Amendments; Waivers.
37.No amendment, modification or waiver of any of the provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed to be made unless the same shall be in writing signed on behalf of each party hereto or its authorized agent and each waiver, if any, shall be a waiver only with respect to the specific instance involved and shall in no way impair the rights of the parties making such waiver or the obligations of the other parties to such party in any other respect or at any other time. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company and the other Grantors shall not have any right to consent to or approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement except to the extent their rights are directly and adversely affected.
38.Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of any First Lien Claimholder, any Representative and Collateral Agent may become a party hereto by execution and delivery of a Joinder Agreement in accordance with Section 5.14 of this Agreement and upon such execution and delivery, such Representative and Collateral Agent and the Other First Lien Claimholders and Other First Lien Obligations of the Series for which such Representative and Collateral Agent is acting shall be subject to the terms hereof.

Obligations. The Representative and Collateral Agent and the other First Lien Claimholders of each Series shall have no duty to advise the Representative, Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholders of any other Series of information known to it or them regarding such condition or any such circumstances or otherwise. In the event the Representative or Collateral Agent or any of the other First Lien Claimholders, in its or their sole discretion, undertakes at any time or from time to time to provide any such information to the Representative, Collateral Agent or First Lien Claimholders of any other Series, it or they shall be under no obligation:
40.to make, and such Representative and Collateral Agent and such other First Lien Claimholders shall not make, any express or implied representation or warranty, including with respect to the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness or validity of any such information so provided;
