REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

To the Board of Directors and Stockholders of

Delta Air Lines, Inc.

Results of Review of Interim Financial Statements

We have reviewed the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Delta Air Lines, Inc. (the Company) as of June 30, 2020, the related condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive (loss) income, and stockholders' equity for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019 and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "condensed consolidated interim financial statements"). Based on our reviews, we are not aware of any material modifications that should be made to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements for them to be in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

We have previously audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the consolidated balance sheet of the Company as of December 31, 2019, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows, and stockholders' equity for the year then ended, and the related notes (not presented herein); and in our report dated February 12, 2020, we expressed an unqualified audit opinion on those consolidated financial statements. In our opinion, the information set forth in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2019, is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the consolidated balance sheet from which it has been derived.

Basis for Review Results

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the SEC and the PCAOB. We conducted our review in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. A review of interim financial statements consists principally of applying analytical procedures and making inquiries of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters. It is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB, the objective of which is the expression of an opinion regarding the financial statements taken as a whole. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion.

Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Delta Air Lines, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Consistent with these requirements, this Form 10-Q does not include all the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As a result, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Management believes the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented.

Due to severe impacts from the global COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, seasonal variations in the demand for air travel, the volatility of aircraft fuel prices and other factors, operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

We reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts disclosed are stated before consideration of income taxes.

Recent Accounting Standards

Credit Losses. In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." Under this ASU, an entity is required to utilize an "expected credit loss model" on certain financial instruments, including trade and financing receivables. This model requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information and requires an entity to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020 and due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recorded reserves on certain receivables, which are discussed further in Note 5, "Investments."

NOTE 2. IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

The unprecedented and rapid spread of COVID-19 and the related travel restrictions and social distancing measures implemented throughout the world have significantly reduced demand for air travel. After initially impacting our service to China beginning in January, the spread of the virus and the resulting global pandemic next affected the majority of our international network and ultimately has significantly affected our domestic network. Beginning in March, large public events were cancelled, governmental authorities began imposing restrictions on non-essential activities, businesses suspended travel and popular leisure destinations temporarily closed to visitors. Certain countries that are key markets for our business have imposed bans on international travelers for specified periods or indefinitely.

As a result, demand for travel declined at a rapid pace and has remained depressed, which has had an unprecedented and materially adverse impact on our revenues and financial position. Although demand improved through the quarter, it remains significantly below the prior year. The exact timing and pace of the recovery are uncertain as certain markets have reopened, some of which have since experienced a resurgence of COVID-19 cases, while others, particularly international markets, remain closed or are enforcing extended quarantines for most U.S. residents. Additionally, some states have instituted travel restrictions or advisories for travelers from other states. Our forecasted expense and liquidity management initiatives may be modified as the demand environment evolves.

7

In response to these developments, beginning in March and continuing throughout the June 2020 quarter, we have implemented enhanced measures focusing on the safety of our customers and employees, while at the same time seeking to mitigate the impact on our financial position and operations.

Taking Care of our Customers and Employees. The safety of our customers and employees is our primary focus. As the COVID-19 pandemic has progressed, we have taken numerous steps to help promote the safety of our customers and employees on the ground and in the air in keeping with current health-expert recommendations, including:

•Adopting new cleaning procedures on all flights, including disinfectant electrostatic spraying on aircraft and sanitizing high-touch areas like tray tables, entertainment screens, armrests and seat-back pockets before each flight.

•Taking steps to help employees and customers practice social distancing and promote safety, including:

◦Creating a Global Cleanliness Division to ensure a consistently safe and sanitized experience across our facilities and aircraft.

◦Requiring all customers and customer-facing employees to wear masks.

◦Blocking middle seats and capping load factor at 60% throughout our aircraft through at least September 30, 2020.

◦Modifying our boarding and deplaning processes, while providing food and beverage service that is designed to reduce physical touch points.

◦Installing plexiglass shields at all Delta check-in counters, Delta Sky Clubs and gate counters across the U.S. as well as adding social distance markers in the check-in lobby, Delta Sky Clubs, at the gate and throughout the jetbridge.

◦Implementing significant workforce social distancing and protection measures, including reconfiguring call center spaces to promote social distancing, increasing cleaning and disinfecting of our facilities and having virtually all employees who can telecommute do so.

•Giving customers flexibility to plan, re-book and travel including extending expiration on travel credits through September 2022. Additionally, we are extending 2020 Medallion Status an additional year, rolling Medallion Qualification Miles into 2021 and extending Delta SkyMiles American Express Card benefits and Delta Sky Club memberships.

•Offering pay protection to employees who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, who must quarantine due to exposure to COVID-19 or who have self-identified as being at high-risk for illness from COVID-19 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") guidelines and do not have the ability to telecommute (through July 31 for high-risk individuals).

•Beginning in June 2020, onsite COVID-19 testing became available for employees in select Delta hubs. Testing began in our Atlanta and Minneapolis hubs and is expanding through the September 2020 quarter, with the expectation that all employees will be tested.

Capacity Reductions. Beginning in the second half of March, we experienced a precipitous decrease in demand as COVID-19 spread throughout the world. We significantly reduced our system capacity to a level that maintained essential services to align capacity with expected demand. For the June 2020 quarter, system capacity was reduced 85% compared to the June 2019 quarter, with international capacity reduced by 94% and domestic flying reduced by 80%. For the September 2020 quarter, system capacity is expected to be down approximately 60% compared to the September 2019 quarter, with international capacity to be reduced approximately 80% and domestic capacity to be reduced approximately 50%. As a result of reduced demand expectations and lower capacity in the September 2020 quarter and beyond, we have parked approximately 50% of our fleet, including the permanent retirement of certain aircraft, as discussed further below.

Expense Management. In response to the reduction in revenue, we have implemented, and will continue to implement, cost saving initiatives, including:

•Reducing capacity as described above to align with expected demand, which has resulted in parking approximately 600 aircraft as of June 30, 2020. In the June 2020 quarter we retired our MD-90 fleet, seven 767-300ER aircraft and 10 A320 aircraft and will retire our 777 and 737-700 fleets by October 2020. These retirement decisions follow the March 2020 quarter decision to accelerate the retirement of our MD-88 fleet from December 2020 to June 2020.

•Consolidating our footprint at our airport facilities, including temporarily closing most Delta Sky Clubs.

•Reducing employee-related costs, including:

◦Voluntary unpaid leaves of 30 days to 12 months offered to most employees. Approximately 45,000 of our employees have taken or have volunteered to take voluntary leaves.

◦Offering employees early retirement and voluntary separation programs, with most departures scheduled for August 1, 2020. The enrollment period for these programs will close in July 2020. See Note 8, "Employee Benefit Plans," for additional information.

▪Pilots are also eligible for an early retirement program, however, separation dates will be based on training and staffing requirements.

8

◦Salary reductions of 50% for our officers and, with respect to our director level employees through the June 2020 quarter, 25%. Beginning in the September 2020 quarter, a 25% reduction in work hours has been implemented for our director level employees, consistent with the 25% reduction in work hours for all other management and most front-line employee work groups.

◦Instituting a company-wide hiring freeze.

•Delaying non-essential maintenance projects and eliminating nearly all other discretionary spending.

Our cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities balance ("liquidity") as of June 30, 2020 was $15.7 billion as a result of the following actions to increase liquidity and strength our financial position during the six months ended June 30, 2020:

•Reducing planned capital expenditures by approximately $3.5 billion for the year, including working with original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries, delaying aircraft modifications and postponing certain information technology initiatives and replacement of ground equipment.

•Receiving $4.9 billion as part of the CARES Act payroll support program as described below.

•Obtaining financing through the following actions:

◦Drawing $3.0 billion from our previously undrawn revolving credit facilities. We have extended the maturity for $1.3 billion of these borrowings from April 2021 to April 2022 and also secured $2.7 billion of these borrowings with our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets.

◦Entering into a $3.0 billion 364-day secured term loan facility.

◦Entering into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions as described below.

◦Issuing $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entering into a $1.5 billion term loan, both of which are secured by certain slots, gates and routes.

◦Issuing $1.3 billion of unsecured notes.

◦Completing $1.4 billion in transactions secured by aircraft, including EETC issuances and aircraft loans.

•Amending our credit facilities to replace fixed charge coverage ratio covenants with liquidity-based covenants.

•Suspending share repurchases and dividends.

•Postponing $500 million of planned voluntary pension funding.

We continue to evaluate leveraging our unencumbered assets to pursue future financing opportunities and our possible participation in the CARES Act loan program, discussed below.

In response to the impact that the demand environment has had on our financial condition, our credit rating has been downgraded by Standard & Poor's to BB in March 2020 and by Fitch to BB+ in April 2020. Our credit rating from Moody's remains Baa3.

Our primary credit facilities have various financial and other covenants that require us to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio and a minimum collateral coverage ratio. The minimum liquidity ratio replaced the fixed charge coverage ratio previously in the facilities as part of the amendments we completed in June 2020. We expect to remain in compliance with these and other covenants in our debt agreements.

See Note 7, "Debt," and the sale-leaseback transactions section in this footnote for more information on our financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Valuation of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangibles

We apply a fair value-based impairment test to the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets on an annual basis (as of October 1) and, if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred, on an interim basis. Our December 2019 quarter quantitative impairment tests of goodwill and intangibles concluded that there was no indication of impairment as the fair value exceeded our carrying value:

	Carrying Value at				Fair Value Excess at 2019 Testing Date
(in millions)	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Goodwill(1)	$	9,753	$	9,781	234%
International routes and slots	2,583		2,583		15% to 29%
Airline alliances(2)	1,863		1,005		67% to 576%
Delta tradename	850		850		185%
Domestic slots	622		622		61% to 181%
Total	$	15,671	$	14,841

⁽¹⁾ The reduction in goodwill relates to the combination of Delta Private Jets with Wheels Up in the March 2020 quarter. See Note 5, "Investments," for more information on this transaction.

⁽²⁾ As part of our strategic alliance with and investment in LATAM Airlines Group S.A. ("LATAM"), we have recorded an alliance-related indefinite-lived intangible asset of $1.2 billion, which was not reflected in the 2019 quantitative impairment assessment. See Note 5, "Investments," for more information on this transaction.

Despite the significant excess fair value identified in our 2019 impairment assessment, we determined that the reduced cash flow projections and the significant decline in Delta's market capitalization as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred. Therefore, we qualitatively assessed whether it was more likely than not that the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired as of June 30, 2020. We reviewed our previous forecasts and assumptions based on our current projections that are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including: (1) forecasted revenues, expenses and cash flows, including the duration and extent of impact to our business and our alliance partners from the COVID-19 pandemic, (2) current discount rates, (3) the reduction in Delta's market capitalization, (4) observable market transactions, (5) changes to the regulatory environment and (6) the nature and amount of government support that has been and is expected to be provided in the future.

Based on our interim impairment assessment as of June 30, 2020, we have determined that our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not impaired. However, we are unable to predict how long these conditions will persist, what additional measures may be introduced by governments or private parties or what effect any such additional measures may have on air travel and our business. Any measure that requires or encourages potential travelers to stay in their homes, engage in social distancing or avoid larger gatherings of people is highly likely to be harmful to the air travel industry in general, and consequently our business. We expect any traveler wariness of airports and commercial aircraft to have a similar effect.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

Our flight equipment and other long-lived assets, which are classified as property and equipment, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheet ("balance sheet"), have a recorded value of $28.5 billion at June 30, 2020. We review flight equipment and other long-lived assets used in operations for impairment losses when events and circumstances indicate the assets may be impaired.

As part of our capacity reductions related to the negative effect on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, we have removed approximately 600 aircraft from active service as of June 30, 2020. Other than the MD-88, MD-90, 777 and 737-700 fleets and certain of our 767-300ER and A320 aircraft, which we have retired or are in the process of retiring, the aircraft removed from service are being temporarily parked.

In the March 2020 quarter we recorded an impairment charge of $22 million related to the MD-88 fleet. In the June 2020 quarter we recorded impairment charges of $1.4 billion related to the 777 fleet, $330 million related to the MD-90 fleet, $220 million related to the 737-700 fleet, $180 million related to the seven retired 767-300ER aircraft and $60 million related to the ten retired A320 aircraft in restructuring charges in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income ("income statement"). These impairment charges were calculated using Level 3 fair value inputs based primarily upon forecasted future cash flows, recent market transactions, published pricing guides and our assessment of existing market conditions based on industry knowledge. Following the impairment charges, the remaining cumulative net book value for these aircraft is $370 million.

10

To determine whether impairments exist for active and temporarily parked aircraft, we group assets at the fleet-type level or at the contract level for aircraft operated by regional carriers (i.e., the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows) and then estimate future cash flows based on projections of capacity, passenger mile yield, fuel and labor costs and other relevant factors. Given the substantial reduction in our active aircraft and diminished projections of future cash flows in the near term, we evaluated the remainder of our fleet and determined that only the fleet-types discussed above were impaired as the future cash flows from operation of the fleet through the respective retirement dates exceeded the carrying value. As we obtain greater clarity about the duration and extent of reduced demand and potentially execute further capacity adjustments, we will continue to evaluate our current fleet compared to network requirements and may decide to permanently retire additional aircraft.

See Note 5, "Investments," for information on the valuation of our equity investments.

CARES Act

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") into law. The CARES Act is a relief package intended to assist many aspects of the American economy, including providing the airline industry with up to $25 billion in grants to be used for employee wages, salaries and benefits.

In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $5.4 billion in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through July 2020. The relief payments are conditioned on our agreement to refrain from conducting involuntary employee layoffs or furloughs through September 30, 2020. Other conditions include prohibitions on share repurchases and dividends through September 30, 2021, continuing essential air service as directed by the U.S. Department of Transportation and certain limitations on executive compensation. The relief payments include $3.8 billion in a grant and $1.6 billion in an unsecured 10-year low interest loan. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 1.00% for the first five years (through April 2025) and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.00% in the final five years. In return, we agreed to issue to the U.S. Department of the Treasury warrants to acquire over 6.5 million shares of Delta common stock. These warrants have an exercise price of $24.39 per share and a five-year term.

The relative fair value of the warrants is recorded within stockholder's equity and as a discount reducing the carrying value of the loan which will be amortized as interest expense in our income statement over the term of the loan. The proceeds of the grant are recorded in cash and cash equivalents when received and will be recognized as contra-expense in CARES Act grant recognition in our income statement over the periods that the funds are intended to compensate, which is expected to be through the end of 2020.

In the June 2020 quarter, we received $4.9 billion under the CARES Act payroll support program, which consists of $3.5 billion in a grant and $1.4 billion in an unsecured loan. The remaining amount will be received in July 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we recognized $1.3 billion of the grant as contra-expense with the remaining $2.2 billion recorded as a deferred contra-expense in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet. We expect to recognize the remainder of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as contra-expense by the end of 2020. See Note 7, "Debt," for further discussion of the unsecured loans and warrants to acquire Delta shares issued under the CARES Act payroll support program.

The CARES Act also provides for up to $25 billion in secured loans to the airline industry. We are eligible and have entered into a non-binding letter of intent to the U.S. Department of the Treasury for $4.6 billion under the loan program. We have not decided if we will participate, and we have until September 30, 2020 to decide whether to participate in this program.

Finally, the CARES Act also provides for deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020, with 50% of the deferred amount due December 31, 2021 and the remaining 50% due December 31, 2022. This is expected to provide us with approximately $200 million of additional liquidity during the current year.

11

Sale-Leaseback Transactions

In the June 2020 quarter, we entered into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions for 85 aircraft including 25 A321-200s, 25 A220-100s, 23 CRJ-900s, 10 737-900ERs and two A330-900s. Of these transactions, 74 did not qualify as a sale as they are finance leases or have an option to repurchase at a stated price. The assets associated with these transactions remain on our balance sheet within property and equipment, net and we recorded the related liabilities under the lease. These liabilities are classified within other accrued or other noncurrent liabilities on our balance sheet. These transactions are treated as financing inflows on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows ("cash flows statement").

The other 11 transactions qualified as sales, generating an immaterial loss, and the associated assets were removed from our balance sheet within property and equipment, net and recorded within operating lease right-of-use assets. The liabilities are recorded within current maturities of operating leases and noncurrent operating leases on our balance sheet. These transactions are treated as investing cash inflows on the cash flows statement.

NOTE 3. REVENUE RECOGNITION

Passenger Revenue

Passenger revenue is primarily composed of passenger ticket sales, loyalty travel awards and travel-related services performed in conjunction with a passenger’s flight.

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2020		2019		2020		2019
Ticket	$	568	$	9,969	$	7,078	$	17,957
Loyalty travel awards	45		751		588		1,442
Travel-related services	65		648		581		1,223
Total passenger revenue	$	678	$	11,368	$	8,247	$	20,622

Ticket. We defer sales of passenger tickets to be flown by us or that we sell on behalf of other airlines in air traffic liability. Passenger revenue is recognized when we provide transportation or when ticket breakage occurs. For tickets that we sell on behalf of other airlines, we reduce the air traffic liability when consideration is remitted to those airlines. The air traffic liability primarily includes sales of passenger tickets to be flown in the future, as well as credits which can be applied as payment toward the cost of a ticket. The credits are typically issued as a result of ticket cancellations prior to their expiration dates.

Prior to April 2020, passenger tickets sold and credits issued were generally valid for one year from the date of original ticket issuance. In April 2020, we announced that credits issued for cancelled travel in March through September 2020 will have an extended expiration date through September 2022. This change shifted $315 million of our air traffic liability to noncurrent in the June 2020 quarter, which represents our current estimate of tickets to be flown, as well as credits to be used, beyond one year. We will continue to monitor our customers' travel behavior and may adjust our estimates in the future.

The air traffic liability typically increases during the winter and spring months as advanced ticket sales grow prior to the summer peak travel season and decreases during the summer and fall months. However, the current reduction in demand for air travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented low level of advance bookings and the associated cash received. We also began experiencing significant ticket cancellations in the second half of March, which has led to issuance of refunds to customers, while the remainder of cancellations have been rebooked on future flights or received credits in lieu of cash refunds. The total value of refunds, excluding taxes and related fees, issued to customers during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $1.3 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively.

We recognized approximately $2.9 billion in passenger revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020 that was recorded in our air traffic liability balance at December 31, 2019. Due to the uncertainty around the return of demand for air travel, we are unable to estimate the amount of the December 31, 2019 air traffic liability that will be recognized in earnings compared to amounts that will be refunded to customers or issued as a credit for future travel through the end of 2020.

Loyalty Program. Our SkyMiles loyalty program generates customer loyalty by rewarding customers with incentives to travel on Delta. This program allows customers to earn mileage credits ("miles") by flying on Delta, Delta Connection and other airlines that participate in the loyalty program. When traveling, customers earn redeemable miles based on the passenger's loyalty program status and ticket price. Customers can also earn miles through participating companies such as credit card companies, hotels, car rental agencies and ridesharing companies. Miles are redeemable by customers in future periods for air travel on Delta and other participating airlines, membership in our Sky Club and other program awards. To facilitate transactions with participating companies, we sell miles to non-airline businesses, customers and other airlines. Our most significant contract to sell miles relates to our co-brand credit card relationship with American Express. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total cash sales from marketing agreements related to our loyalty program were $1.5 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively, which are allocated to travel and other performance obligations.

Current Activity of the Loyalty Program. Miles are combined in one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of miles that were part of the loyalty program deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period as well as miles that were issued during the period.

The table below presents the activity of the current and noncurrent loyalty program deferred revenue and includes miles earned through travel and miles sold to participating companies, which are primarily through marketing agreements.

(in millions)	2020		2019
Balance at January 1	$	6,728	$	6,641
Miles earned	872		1,542
Travel miles redeemed	(588)		(1,443)
Non-travel miles redeemed	(31)		(86)
Balance at June 30	$	6,981	$	6,654

The timing of mile redemptions can vary widely; however, the majority of new miles have historically been redeemed within two years. The loyalty program deferred revenue classified as a current liability represents our current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized in the next 12 months based on projected redemptions, while the balance classified as a noncurrent liability represents our current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized beyond 12 months. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a larger portion of mile redemptions is projected to occur beyond 12 months and is therefore reflected as a noncurrent liability as of June 30, 2020. We will continue to monitor redemptions as the situation evolves.

Revenue by Geographic Region

Operating revenue for the airline segment is recognized in a specific geographic region based on the origin, flight path and destination of each flight segment. The majority of the revenues of the refinery, consisting of fuel sales to the airline, have been eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The remaining operating revenue for the refinery segment is included in the domestic region. Our passenger and operating revenue by geographic region is summarized in the following tables:

	Passenger Revenue

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents. Cash equivalents generally consist of money market funds. Restricted cash equivalents generally consist of money market funds, time deposits, commercial paper and negotiable certificates of deposit, which primarily relate to proceeds from debt issued to finance a portion of the construction costs for our new terminal facilities at New York's LaGuardia Airport. The fair value of these cash equivalents is based on a market approach using prices generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets.

Short-Term Investments. The fair values of short-term investments are based on a market approach using industry standard valuation techniques that incorporate observable inputs such as quoted market prices, interest rates, benchmark curves, credit ratings of the security and other observable information.

Long-Term Investments. Our long-term investments that are measured at fair value primarily consist of equity investments, which are valued based on market prices or other observable transactions and inputs, and are recorded in equity investments on our balance sheet. As of June 30, 2020, our equity investment in Wheels Up is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as its equity is not traded on a public exchange and our equity investments in LATAM and Grupo Aeroméxico are classified as Level 3 investments due to having recently entered into bankruptcy proceedings. See Note 5, "Investments," for further information on our equity investments.

Hedge Derivatives. A portion of our derivative contracts are negotiated over-the-counter with counterparties without going through a public exchange. Accordingly, our fair value assessments give consideration to the risk of counterparty default (as well as our own credit risk). Such contracts are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The remainder of our hedge contracts are comprised of futures contracts, which are traded on a public exchange. These contracts are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

•Fuel Hedge Contracts. Our fuel hedge portfolio consists of options, swaps and futures. Option and swap contracts are valued under income approaches using option pricing models and discounted cash flow models, respectively, based on data either readily observable in public markets, derived from public markets or provided by counterparties who regularly trade in public markets. Futures contracts and options on futures contracts are traded on a public exchange and valued based on quoted market prices.

•Interest Rate Contracts. Our interest rate derivatives are swap contracts, which are valued based on data readily observable in public markets.

•Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. Our foreign currency derivatives consist of forward contracts and are valued based on data readily observable in public markets.

NOTE 5. INVESTMENTS

Short-Term Investments

At June 30, 2020, the estimated fair value of our short-term investments was $4.3 billion, which approximates cost. These investments are expected to mature in one year or less. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain issuers of the securities may have the right to retire certain of our investments without prepayment penalties.

Long-Term Investments

We have developed strategic relationships with a number of airlines and airline services companies through equity investments and other forms of cooperation and support. Our equity investments reinforce our commitment to these relationships and provide us with the ability to participate in strategic decision-making, often through representation on the board of directors of the investee.

LATAM. In January 2020, we acquired 20% of the shares of LATAM for $1.9 billion, or $16 per share, through a tender offer as part of our plan to enter into a strategic alliance with LATAM. In addition, to support the establishment of the strategic alliance, we agreed to make transition payments to LATAM totaling $350 million, $200 million of which was disbursed in 2019. The remaining $150 million will be disbursed in equal quarterly payments through 2021, beginning in the September 2020 quarter. As part of our planned strategic alliance with LATAM, we also agreed to acquire four A350 aircraft from LATAM and assumed ten of LATAM's A350 purchase commitments with Airbus for deliveries through 2025.

15

The total consideration of $2.3 billion, including the tender offer and the transition payments, was allocated in the March 2020 quarter to the shares ($1.1 billion) and to the alliance-related indefinite-lived intangible asset ($1.2 billion) based on their relative fair values. We expect to record the ten aircraft at cost upon delivery.

In May 2020, LATAM filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States bankruptcy code and, as part of LATAM's reorganization, we have terminated the purchase agreement for the four A350 aircraft from LATAM for a fee of $62 million, which is recorded in restructuring charges in our income statement. While our ownership interest remains at 20%, we no longer have significant influence over LATAM and have discontinued accounting for the investment under the equity method in the June 2020 quarter. This investment is now accounted for at fair value.

During the June 2020 quarter, we eliminated our investment basis in LATAM and recorded expense of $1.1 billion in impairments and equity method losses within non-operating expenses in our income statement. This charge reflects the recognition of both our 20% share of LATAM's March 2020 quarter losses (due to the timing of information available from LATAM) and the decline in our expected realizable value for LATAM's shares following its bankruptcy filing. The impairment charge for our investment in LATAM was calculated using Level 3 fair value inputs. We expect that no more than an immaterial amount will be distributed to current equity holders following the settlement of unsecured claims upon LATAM's emergence from bankruptcy.

In May 2020, we signed a trans-American joint venture agreement with LATAM that, subject to regulatory approvals, will combine our highly complementary route networks between North and South America, with the goal of providing customers with a seamless travel experience and industry-leading connectivity. In addition, we believe LATAM intends to request that the bankruptcy court approve the assumption of our strategic partnership agreement, which contributes to supporting the value of our $1.2 billion alliance-related indefinite-lived intangible asset. We continue to believe this alliance will generate growth opportunities, building upon Delta's and LATAM's global footprint and joint ventures. See Note 2, "Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic," for further discussion of our qualitative impairment assessment of indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Grupo Aeroméxico. In June 2020, Grupo Aeroméxico filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States bankruptcy code. We have a non-controlling 51% ownership interest in Grupo Aeroméxico, however Grupo Aeroméxico's corporate bylaws (as authorized by the Mexican Foreign Investment Commission) limit our voting interest to a maximum of 49%. Therefore, we accounted for our investment under the equity method prior to Grupo Aeroméxico's bankruptcy filing.

As a result of Grupo Aeroméxico's bankruptcy filing, while our ownership interest has not changed, we no longer have significant influence over Grupo Aeroméxico and have discontinued accounting for the investment under the equity method in the June 2020 quarter. This investment is now accounted for at fair value.

During the June 2020 quarter, we eliminated our investment basis in Grupo Aeroméxico and recorded expense of $770 million in impairments and equity method losses within non-operating expenses in our income statement. This charge reflects the recognition of both our 51% share of Grupo Aeroméxico's June 2020 quarter losses and the decline in our expected realizable value for Grupo Aeroméxico's shares following its bankruptcy filing. The impairment charge for our investment in Grupo Aeroméxico was calculated using Level 3 fair value inputs. We expect that no more than an immaterial amount will be distributed to current equity holders following the settlement of unsecured claims upon Grupo Aeroméxico's emergence from bankruptcy.

In addition, in its bankruptcy proceeding, Grupo Aeroméxico has requested the bankruptcy court's approval to assume our joint cooperation agreement.

GOL. In 2019, we sold our ownership stake of GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes, the parent company of VRG Linhas Aéreas (operating as GOL), and have ended our commercial agreements. Additionally, GOL has a $300 million five-year term loan facility with third parties maturing in August 2020, which we have guaranteed. Based on market value at June 30, 2020, approximately 60% of our guaranty is secured by GOL's ownership interest in Smiles, GOL's publicly traded loyalty program. Because GOL remains in compliance with the terms of its loan facility, we have not recorded a liability for the full value of the term loan on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. However, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the global economy, there is an increased risk related to GOL's ability to repay this term loan, which may require our performance under this guaranty. Therefore, we recorded an immaterial reserve in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet and restructuring charges in our income statement related to the decline in value of our security interest in GOL's Smiles shares compared to our guaranty of GOL's term loan.

16

Fair Value Investments

We account for the following investments at fair value on a recurring basis with adjustments to fair value recognized in gain/(loss) on investments within non-operating expense in our income statement. We recorded gains of $8 million and losses of $104 million on our fair value investments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These results were driven by changes in stock prices, foreign currency fluctuations and other valuation techniques for investments in companies without publicly-traded shares.

Wheels Up. In January 2020, we combined Delta Private Jets, our wholly owned subsidiary which provides private jet operations, with Wheels Up. Upon closing, we received a 27% equity stake in Wheels Up which we have elected to record using the fair value option as this is expected to better reflect the economics of our ownership interest. This transaction resulted in a gain of $240 million which was recorded within miscellaneous, net in our income statement in the March 2020 quarter.

Equity Method Investments

We account for the investments listed below under the equity method of accounting.

(in millions)	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Virgin Atlantic (1)	49	%	49	%	$	—	$	375
Unifi (formerly AirCo)	49	%	49	%	143		142

⁽¹⁾We have a non-controlling equity stake in Virgin Atlantic Limited, the parent company of Virgin Atlantic Airways, and similar non-controlling interests in certain affiliated Virgin Atlantic companies.

Virgin Atlantic. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting travel restrictions, Virgin Atlantic has incurred significant losses during 2020. In recording our 49% share in Virgin Atlantic's results during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and based on our review of Virgin Atlantic's financial projections, we have reduced the basis in our investment to zero and recorded expense of $200 million in impairments and equity method losses within non-operating expense in our income statement. Under the equity method of accounting, we will track our share of Virgin Atlantic's future losses, but will not reflect our share of their results in our financial statements until such time that our share of their earnings eliminates the losses beyond our basis in the investment. We continue to monitor and support Virgin Atlantic's ongoing restructuring efforts.

Effective January 2020, we combined our separate transatlantic joint venture agreements with Air France-KLM and Virgin Atlantic into a single three-party transatlantic joint venture. Under the new agreement, certain measurement thresholds were reset from the previous joint venture with Virgin Atlantic, reducing the value we would have received over the original term. In consideration for this reduced value, we entered into a transition agreement with Virgin Atlantic, which would have resulted in payments to us in future periods. However, as of June 30, 2020, based on our assessment of collectibility, we do not have any assets or liabilities recorded on our balance sheet related to this transition agreement.

Unifi. Our share of Unifi's financial results is recorded in contracted services in our income statement as this entity is integral to the operations of our business. Based on discussions with Unifi's management and review of their liquidity and financial projections, we do not believe our investment is other than temporarily impaired as we have the intent and ability to retain this investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in value. However, we will continue to monitor the continuing effects of the pandemic and self-help measures Unifi executes.

Receivables from Investees and Business Partners

Based on our assessment of collectibility, we have recorded $98 million of reserves against the outstanding receivables with Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Australia, LATAM, Grupo Aeroméxico and others reflecting our expected recoveries given their restructuring efforts or recent bankruptcy filings. In determining the appropriate amount to reserve, we also considered the valuation of and our ability to realize the value of any collateral associated with each receivable. The reserves are recorded within accounts receivable, net on our balance sheet and within restructuring charges in our income statement.

NOTE 6. DERIVATIVES AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Changes in fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates impact our results of operations. In an effort to manage our exposure to these risks, we enter into derivative contracts and adjust our derivative portfolio as market conditions change. We recognize derivative contracts at fair value on our balance sheet.

Cash flows associated with purchasing and settling hedge contracts generally are classified as operating cash flows.

Fuel Price Risk

Our derivative contracts to hedge the financial risk from changing fuel prices are primarily related to Monroe’s inventory.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk from adverse changes in interest rates is primarily associated with our debt obligations. Market risk associated with our fixed and variable rate debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates.

In the March 2020 quarter, we unwound a majority of our interest rate swap contracts. The unwind of these contracts generated approximately $100 million of cash in the March 2020 quarter. These gains are being reflected in our income statement over the remaining term of the related debt agreements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk because we have revenue, expense and equity investments denominated in foreign currencies. To manage exchange rate risk, we execute both our international revenue and expense transactions in the same foreign currency to the extent practicable. From time to time, we may also enter into foreign currency option and forward contracts.

Credit Risk

To manage credit risk associated with our fuel price, interest rate and foreign currency hedging programs, we evaluate counterparties based on several criteria, including their credit ratings, and limit our exposure to any one counterparty.

⁽²⁾Due in installments.

⁽³⁾Primarily includes unsecured bonds and debt secured by certain accounts receivable and real estate.

2020 Unsecured Notes

In June 2020, we issued $1.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of 7.375% unsecured notes due 2026. The unsecured notes are equal in right of payment with our other unsubordinated indebtedness and senior in right of payment to future subordinated debt. The unsecured notes are subject to covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur liens securing indebtedness for borrowed money or finance leases and engage in mergers and consolidations or transfer all or substantially all of our assets, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The unsecured notes also contain event of default provisions consistent with those in our recent unsecured debt offerings.

Unsecured CARES Act Payroll Support Program Loan

In the June 2020 quarter, we entered into a promissory note for $1.4 billion of the CARES Act payroll support program loan and issued warrants to acquire more than 5.9 million shares of Delta common stock under the program. We have recorded the value of the promissory note and warrants on a relative fair value basis as $1.3 billion of noncurrent debt and $100 million in additional paid in capital, respectively. We expect to enter into the final $163 million installment of the promissory note and issue the related warrants in July 2020 in connection with receipt of the final payment under the payroll support program. See Note 2, "Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic," for further discussion of the terms of the payroll support program loan.

20

2020 Senior Secured Notes and Term Loan

In April 2020, we issued $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entered into a $1.5 billion term loan secured by certain slots, gates and routes. The senior secured notes bear interest at an annual rate of 7.00% and mature in May 2025. The term loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus a specified margin and is subject to payments of 1% per year, payable quarterly beginning in September 2020, with the balance due in April 2023.

2020 Secured Term Loan Facility

In March 2020, we entered into a $2.7 billion 364-day secured term loan facility ("the facility"), and we increased the borrowings thereunder to $3.0 billion in April 2020. Borrowings under the facility are secured by certain aircraft. The facility also contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased to $4.0 billion upon our request, provided that the new lenders agree to the existing terms of the facility.

In the June 2020 quarter, the facility was amended to include a minimum liquidity covenant, as discussed further below.

2020-1 EETC

We completed a $1.0 billion offering of Class AA and A Pass Through Certificates, Series 2020-1 ("2020-1 EETC") utilizing a pass through trust during March 2020. The proceeds of this issuance were used to pay the unsecured notes that matured in the March 2020 quarter. In April 2020, we issued an additional $135 million of Class B certificates. The amounts of all 2020-1 EETC are included in Certificates in the table above. The details of the 2020-1 EETC, which is secured by 33 aircraft, are shown in the table below:

(in millions)	Total Principal		Fixed Interest Rate	Issuance Date	Final Maturity Date
2020-1 Class AA Certificates	$	796	2.00%	March 2020	June 2028
2020-1 Class A Certificates	204		2.50%	March 2020	June 2028
2020-1 Class B Certificates	135		8.00%	April 2020	June 2027
Total	$	1,135

2019-1 EETC

In April 2020, we issued an additional $108 million of certificates under the 2019-1 EETC offering initially completed in March 2019. The additional certificates were issued as 2019-1 Class B Certificates with a fixed interest rate of 8.00% and mature in April 2023.

2018 Revolving Credit Facility

In June 2020, we amended the 2018 revolving credit facility agreement ("Amended Revolving Credit Facility") to be secured by our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets. Additionally, the revolving credit facility was amended to extend the maturities of $1.3 billion of the revolver previously due in April 2021 to April 2022 and to include a minimum liquidity covenant, as discussed further below.

Availability Under Revolving Facilities

During the March 2020 quarter, we drew $3.0 billion on our revolving credit facilities. We have approximately $39 million undrawn as of June 30, 2020. The amounts drawn are spread across several lines within the debt summary table above.

21

Fair Value of Debt

Market risk associated with our fixed- and variable-rate debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates. The fair value of debt, shown below, is principally based on reported market values, recently completed market transactions and estimates based on interest rates, maturities, credit risk and underlying collateral. Debt is primarily classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. 

(in millions)	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Net carrying amount	$	23,493	$	10,106
Fair value	$	22,900	$	10,400

Covenants

Our credit facilities contain affirmative, negative and financial covenants that, among other things, may restrict our ability to place liens on collateral, sell or otherwise dispose of assets if we are not in compliance with a collateral coverage ratio, and pay dividends or repurchase stock. These covenants also require us to maintain $2.0 billion of minimum liquidity (defined as cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities).

We were in compliance with the covenants in our financing agreements at June 30, 2020.

NOTE 8. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS

Service cost is recorded in salaries and related costs in our income statement while all other components are recorded within miscellaneous, net under non-operating expense.

We have no minimum funding requirements for our defined benefit pension plans. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our liquidity, we no longer plan to make any voluntary contributions during 2020.

22

During the June 2020 quarter, we announced voluntary early retirement and separation programs. These primarily apply to eligible U.S. merit, ground and flight attendant and pilot employees. The enrollment period for these programs will close in July 2020. Employees electing to participate in the retirement programs will be eligible for separation payments, continued healthcare benefits and certain participants will receive enhanced retiree healthcare benefits. As the election windows will close in the September 2020 quarter, we did not record any charges for these programs in the June 2020 quarter.

We currently estimate we will record a $2.7 billion to $3.3 billion charge associated with these programs during the September 2020 quarter. We anticipate that approximately $500 million to $600 million of this charge will result in cash payments to participants in the September 2020 quarter. Certain of the programs remain open and these represent our best estimates based on the employees who have signed up to date.

NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Aircraft Purchase Commitments

We have committed to the future aircraft purchases reflected below. However, we are working with the OEMs to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries. Our future aircraft purchase commitments totaled approximately $14.2 billion at June 30, 2020:

(in millions)	Total
Six months ending December 31, 2020	$	2,350
2021	4,290
2022	3,070
2023	1,860
2024	980
Thereafter	1,690
Total	$	14,240

Our future aircraft purchase commitments included the following aircraft at June 30, 2020:

Aircraft Type	Purchase Commitments
A220-100	14
A220-300	50
A321-200	27
A321-200neo	100
A330-900neo(1)	32
A350-900	22
CRJ-900	4
Total	249

⁽¹⁾Includes two A330-900neo lease commitments with one in each of 2020 and 2021.

LATAM A350 Commitments

We have assumed ten of LATAM's A350 purchase commitments from Airbus, with deliveries through 2025, which are included as purchase commitments in the table above. We had previously agreed to acquire four A350 aircraft from LATAM, but have terminated the purchase agreement for a fee of $62 million during the June 2020 quarter. See Note 5, "Investments," for further information on our strategic alliance with LATAM.

23

Legal Contingencies

We are involved in various legal proceedings related to employment practices, environmental issues, antitrust matters and other matters concerning our business. We record liabilities for losses from legal proceedings when we determine that it is probable that the outcome in a legal proceeding will be unfavorable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcome of the legal proceedings in which we are involved cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the resolution of current matters will not have a material adverse effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Credit Card Processing Agreements

Our VISA/MasterCard and American Express credit card processing agreements provide that no cash reserve ("Reserve") is required, and no withholding of payment related to receivables collected will occur, except in certain circumstances, including when we do not maintain a required level of liquidity as outlined in the merchant processing agreements. In circumstances in which the credit card processor can establish a Reserve or withhold payments, the amount of the Reserve or payments that may be withheld would be equal to the potential liability of the credit card processor for tickets purchased with VISA/MasterCard or American Express credit cards, as applicable, that had not yet been used for travel. We did not have a Reserve or an amount withheld as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

Other Contingencies

General Indemnifications

We are the lessee under many commercial real estate leases. It is common in these transactions for us, as the lessee, to agree to indemnify the lessor and the lessor's related parties for tort, environmental and other liabilities that arise out of or relate to our use or occupancy of the leased premises. This type of indemnity would typically make us responsible to indemnified parties for liabilities arising out of the conduct of, among others, contractors, licensees and invitees at, or in connection with, the use or occupancy of the leased premises. This indemnity often extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties but usually excludes any liabilities caused by either their sole or gross negligence or their willful misconduct.

Our aircraft and other equipment lease and financing agreements typically contain provisions requiring us, as the lessee or obligor, to indemnify the other parties to those agreements, including certain of those parties' related persons, against virtually any liabilities that might arise from the use or operation of the aircraft or other equipment.

We believe that our insurance would cover most of our exposure to liabilities and related indemnities associated with the commercial real estate leases and aircraft and other equipment lease and financing agreements described above. While our insurance does not typically cover environmental liabilities, we have insurance policies in place as required by applicable environmental laws.

Some of our aircraft and other financing transactions include provisions that require us to make payments to preserve an expected economic return to the lenders if that economic return is diminished due to specified changes in laws or regulations. In some of these financing transactions, we also bear the risk of changes in tax laws that would subject payments to non-U.S. lenders to withholding taxes.

We cannot reasonably estimate our potential future payments under the indemnities and related provisions described above because we cannot predict (1) when and under what circumstances these provisions may be triggered and (2) the amount that would be payable if the provisions were triggered because the amounts would be based on facts and circumstances existing at such time.

Other

We have certain contracts for goods and services that require us to pay a penalty, acquire inventory specific to us or purchase contract-specific equipment, as defined by each respective contract, if we terminate the contract without cause prior to its expiration date. Because these obligations are contingent on our termination of the contract without cause prior to its expiration date, no obligation would exist unless such a termination occurs.

⁽¹⁾Amounts reclassified from AOCI for pension and other benefit liabilities and for derivative contracts designated as foreign currency cash flow hedges are recorded in miscellaneous, net in non-operating expense and in passenger revenue, respectively, in our income statement.

⁽²⁾Includes $755 million of deferred income tax expense primarily related to pension and other benefit obligations that will not be recognized in net income until these obligations are fully extinguished. We consider all income sources, including other comprehensive income, in determining the amount of tax benefit allocated to results from operations.

⁽³⁾In June 2020, all remaining foreign currency hedges expired, and we recognized an $83 million tax benefit which was released from AOCI.

25

NOTE 11. SEGMENTS

Refinery Operations

Our refinery segment operates for the benefit of the airline segment by providing jet fuel to the airline segment from its own production and through jet fuel obtained through agreements with third parties. The refinery's production consists of jet fuel, as well as non-jet fuel products. We use several counterparties to exchange the non-jet fuel products produced by the refinery for jet fuel consumed in our airline operations. The gross fair value of the products exchanged under these agreements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $65 million and $895 million, respectively, compared to $1.1 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Segment Reporting

Segment results are prepared based on our internal accounting methods described below, with reconciliations to consolidated amounts in accordance with GAAP. Our segments are not designed to measure operating income or loss directly related to the products and services included in each segment on a stand-alone basis.

NOTE 12. (LOSS)/EARNINGS PER SHARE

We calculate basic (loss)/earnings per share and diluted (loss) per share by dividing net (loss)/income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding restricted shares. We calculate diluted earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding share-based awards, including stock options and restricted stock awards. Antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted (loss)/earnings per share calculation are not material. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted (loss)/earnings per share:

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other financial information included elsewhere in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and our audited consolidated financial statements and related notes included in our 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

The unprecedented and rapid spread of COVID-19 and the related travel restrictions and social distancing measures implemented throughout the world have significantly reduced demand for air travel. After initially impacting our service to China beginning in January, the spread of the virus and the resulting global pandemic next affected the majority of our international network and ultimately has significantly affected our domestic network. Beginning in March, large public events were cancelled, governmental authorities began imposing restrictions on non-essential activities, businesses suspended travel and popular leisure destinations temporarily closed to visitors. Certain countries that are key markets for our business have imposed bans on international travelers for specified periods or indefinitely.

As a result, demand for travel declined at a rapid pace and has remained depressed, which has had an unprecedented and materially adverse impact on our revenues and financial position. Although demand improved through the quarter, it remains significantly below the prior year. The exact timing and pace of the recovery are uncertain as certain markets have reopened, some of which have since experienced a resurgence of COVID-19 cases, while others, particularly international markets, remain closed or are enforcing extended quarantines for most U.S. residents. Additionally, some states have instituted travel restrictions or advisories for travelers from other states. Our forecasted expense and liquidity management initiatives may be modified as the demand environment evolves.

In response to these developments, beginning in March and continuing throughout the June 2020 quarter, we have implemented enhanced measures focusing on the safety of our customers and employees, while at the same time seeking to mitigate the impact on our financial position and operations.

Taking Care of our Customers and Employees. The safety of our customers and employees is our primary focus. As the COVID-19 pandemic has progressed, we have taken numerous steps to help promote the safety of our customers and employees on the ground and in the air in keeping with current health-expert recommendations, including:

•Adopting new cleaning procedures on all flights, including disinfectant electrostatic spraying on aircraft and sanitizing high-touch areas like tray tables, entertainment screens, armrests and seat-back pockets before each flight.

•Taking steps to help employees and customers practice social distancing and promote safety, including:

◦Creating a Global Cleanliness Division to ensure a consistently safe and sanitized experience across our facilities and aircraft.

◦Requiring all customers and customer-facing employees to wear masks.

◦Blocking middle seats and capping load factor at 60% throughout our aircraft through at least September 30, 2020.

◦Modifying our boarding and deplaning processes, while providing food and beverage service that is designed to reduce physical touch points.

◦Installing plexiglass shields at all Delta check-in counters, Delta Sky Clubs and gate counters across the U.S. as well as adding social distance markers in the check-in lobby, Delta Sky Clubs, at the gate and throughout the jetbridge.

◦Implementing significant workforce social distancing and protection measures, including reconfiguring call center spaces to promote social distancing, increasing cleaning and disinfecting of our facilities and having virtually all employees who can telecommute do so.

•Giving customers flexibility to plan, re-book and travel including extending expiration on travel credits through September 2022. Additionally, we are extending 2020 Medallion Status an additional year, rolling Medallion Qualification Miles into 2021 and extending Delta SkyMiles American Express Card benefits and Delta Sky Club memberships.

•Offering pay protection to employees who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, who must quarantine due to exposure to COVID-19 or who have self-identified as being at high-risk for illness from COVID-19 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") guidelines and do not have the ability to telecommute (through July 31 for high-risk individuals).

28

•Beginning in June 2020, onsite COVID-19 testing became available for employees in select Delta hubs. Testing began in our Atlanta and Minneapolis hubs and is expanding through the September 2020 quarter, with the expectation that all employees will be tested.

Capacity Reductions. Beginning in the second half of March, we experienced a precipitous decrease in demand as COVID-19 spread throughout the world. We significantly reduced our system capacity to a level that maintained essential services to align capacity with expected demand. For the June 2020 quarter, system capacity was reduced 85% compared to the June 2019 quarter, with international capacity reduced by 94% and domestic flying reduced by 80%. For the September 2020 quarter, system capacity is expected to be down approximately 60% compared to the September 2019 quarter, with international capacity to be reduced approximately 80% and domestic capacity to be reduced approximately 50%. As a result of reduced demand expectations and lower capacity in the September 2020 quarter and beyond, we have parked approximately 50% of our fleet, including the permanent retirement of certain aircraft, as discussed further below.

Expense Management. In response to the reduction in revenue, we have implemented, and will continue to implement, cost saving initiatives, including:

•Reducing capacity as described above to align with expected demand, which has resulted in parking approximately 600 aircraft as of June 30, 2020. In the June 2020 quarter we retired our MD-90 fleet, seven 767-300ER aircraft and 10 A320 aircraft and will retire our 777 and 737-700 fleets by October 2020. These retirement decisions follow the March 2020 quarter decision to accelerate the retirement of our MD-88 fleet from December 2020 to June 2020.

•Consolidating our footprint at our airport facilities, including temporarily closing most Delta Sky Clubs.

•Reducing employee-related costs, including:

◦Voluntary unpaid leaves of 30 days to 12 months offered to most employees. Approximately 45,000 of our employees have taken or have volunteered to take voluntary leaves.

◦Offering employees early retirement and voluntary separation programs, with most departures scheduled for August 1, 2020. The enrollment period for these programs will close in July 2020. See Note 8 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

▪Pilots are also eligible for an early retirement program, however, separation dates will be based on training and staffing requirements.

◦Salary reductions of 50% for our officers and, with respect to our director level employees through the June 2020 quarter, 25%. Beginning in the September 2020 quarter, a 25% reduction in work hours has been implemented for our director level employees, consistent with the 25% reduction in work hours for all other management and most front-line employee work groups.

◦Instituting a company-wide hiring freeze.

•Delaying non-essential maintenance projects and eliminating nearly all other discretionary spending.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity. Our cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities balance ("liquidity") as of June 30, 2020 was $15.7 billion as a result of the following actions to increase liquidity and strength our financial position during the six months ended June 30, 2020:

•Reducing planned capital expenditures by approximately $3.5 billion for the year, including working with original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries, delaying aircraft modifications and postponing certain information technology initiatives and replacement of ground equipment.

•Receiving $4.9 billion as part of the CARES Act payroll support program as described below.

•Obtaining financing through the following actions:

◦Drawing $3.0 billion from our previously undrawn revolving credit facilities. We have extended the maturity for $1.3 billion of these borrowings from April 2021 to April 2022 and also secured $2.7 billion of these borrowings with our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets.

◦Entering into a $3.0 billion 364-day secured term loan facility.

◦Entering into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions.

◦Issuing $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entering into a $1.5 billion term loan, both of which are secured by certain slots, gates and routes.

◦Issuing $1.3 billion of unsecured notes.

◦Completing $1.4 billion in transactions secured by aircraft, including EETC issuances and aircraft loans.

•Amending our credit facilities to replace fixed charge coverage ratio covenants with liquidity-based covenants.

•Suspending share repurchases and dividends.

•Postponing $500 million of planned voluntary pension funding.

We continue to evaluate leveraging our unencumbered assets to pursue future financing opportunities and our possible participation in the CARES Act loan program, discussed below.

29

In response to the impact that the demand environment has had on our financial condition, our credit rating has been downgraded by Standard & Poor's to BB in March 2020 and by Fitch to BB+ in April 2020. Our credit rating from Moody's remains Baa3.

Our primary credit facilities have various financial and other covenants that require us to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio and a minimum collateral coverage ratio. The minimum liquidity ratio replaced the fixed charge coverage ratio previously in the facilities as part of the amendments we completed in June 2020. We expect to remain in compliance with these and other covenants in our debt agreements.

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") into law. The CARES Act is a relief package intended to assist many aspects of the American economy, including providing the airline industry with up to $25 billion in grants to be used for employee wages, salaries and benefits.

In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $5.4 billion in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through July 2020. The relief payments are conditioned on our agreement to refrain from conducting involuntary employee layoffs or furloughs through September 30, 2020. Other conditions include prohibitions on share repurchases and dividends through September 30, 2021, continuing essential air service as directed by the U.S. Department of Transportation and certain limitations on executive compensation. The relief payments include $3.8 billion in a grant and $1.6 billion in an unsecured 10-year low interest loan. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 1.00% for the first five years (through April 2025) and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.00% in the final five years. In return, we agreed to issue to the U.S. Department of the Treasury warrants to acquire over 6.5 million shares of Delta common stock. These warrants have an exercise price of $24.39 per share and a five-year term.

The relative fair value of the warrants is recorded within stockholder's equity and as a discount reducing the carrying value of the loan which will be amortized as interest expense in our income statement over the term of the loan. The proceeds of the grant are recorded in cash and cash equivalents when received and will be recognized as contra-expense in CARES Act grant recognition in our income statement over the periods that the funds are intended to compensate, which is expected to be through the end of 2020.

In the June 2020 quarter, we received $4.9 billion under the CARES Act payroll support program, which consists of $3.5 billion in a grant and $1.4 billion in an unsecured loan. The remaining amount will be received in July 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we recognized $1.3 billion of the grant as contra-expense with the remaining $2.2 billion recorded as a deferred contra-expense in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet. We expect to recognize the remainder of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as contra-expense by the end of 2020.

The CARES Act also provides for up to $25 billion in secured loans to the airline industry. We are eligible and have entered into a non-binding letter of intent to the U.S. Department of the Treasury for $4.6 billion under the loan program. We have not decided if we will participate, and we have until September 30, 2020 to decide whether to participate in this program.

Finally, the CARES Act also provides for deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020, with 50% of the deferred amount due December 31, 2021 and the remaining 50% due December 31, 2022. This is expected to provide us with approximately $200 million of additional liquidity during the current year.

June 2020 Quarter Financial Overview

Our pre-tax loss for the June 2020 quarter was $7.0 billion, representing an $8.9 billion decrease compared to the corresponding prior year quarter primarily resulting from an 88% decrease in revenue on the reduction in demand from the impact of the pandemic. Pre-tax loss, adjusted (a non-GAAP financial measure) was $3.9 billion, a decrease of $5.9 billion compared to the corresponding prior year period. Adjustments for the June 2020 quarter were primarily related to restructuring charges, CARES Act grant recognition and impairments and equity method losses.

Revenue. Compared to the June 2019 quarter, our operating revenue decreased $11.1 billion, or 88%, due to reduced demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic.

30

Operating Expense. Total operating expense decreased $4.1 billion, or 40%, compared to the prior year quarter, primarily resulting from lower volume-related expenses, including fuel. This decrease was achieved despite $2.5 billion in restructuring charges which were partially offset by a $1.3 billion contra-expense from the payroll support program grant. Total adjusted operating expense for the June quarter decreased $5.5 billion, or 53%, compared to the June 2019 quarter.

Non-Operating Results. Total non-operating expense was $2.2 billion in the June 2020 quarter, $2.0 billion higher than the June 2019 quarter, primarily due to impairments and our proportionate share of our equity method investment losses related to our investments in LATAM, Grupo Aeroméxico and Virgin Atlantic.

Cash Flow. Losses during the quarter due to the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in operating activities using $290 million. During the quarter, we incurred $4.1 billion of investing cash outflows, primarily related to the purchase of short-term investments, ending the quarter with $4.3 billion of short-term investments in addition to $11.4 billion of cash and cash equivalents. These results generated $21 million of negative free cash flow (a non-GAAP financial measure) compared to $1.8 billion of free cash flow in the June 2019 quarter. Despite this negative free cash flow, we ended the June 2020 quarter with $15.7 billion of liquidity due to proceeds from loans, debt issuances and sale-leaseback transactions, relief payments under the CARES Act payroll support program and other liquidity initiatives.

The above non-GAAP financial measures for pre-tax loss, adjusted, operating expenses, adjusted, and free cash flow are defined and reconciled in "Supplemental Information" below.

Operating Revenue

Compared to the June 2019 quarter, our operating revenue decreased $11.1 billion, or 88%, due to reduced demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The decrease in operating revenue generated a 21% decrease in TRASM and a 36% decrease in TRASM, adjusted compared to the June 2019 quarter. The increase in third-party refinery sales resulted from the refinery's shift to producing more non-jet fuel products due to the decline in demand for jet fuel.

The length and severity of the reduction in travel demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain. We expect these trends in revenue to continue until the global pandemic has moderated and demand for air travel returns.

Passenger Revenue by Geographic Region

			Increase (Decrease) vs. Three Months Ended June 30, 2019
(in millions)	Three Months Ended June 30, 2020		Passenger Revenue		RPMs (Traffic)		ASMs (Capacity)		Passenger Mile Yield		PRASM		Load Factor

Total	$	678	(94)	%	(94)	%	(85)	%	4	%	(60)	%	(54)	pts

Passenger revenue decreased $10.7 billion, or 94%, compared to the June 2019 quarter. Passenger revenue per available seat mile ("PRASM") decreased 60%, and passenger mile yield increased 4% on 85% lower capacity. Load factor decreased 54 points from the prior year to 34%.

Domestic

Passenger unit revenue related to our domestic region for the June 2020 quarter decreased 65% with capacity down 80% compared to the prior year period. We are planning for incremental improvement to the demand environment to continue in the September 2020 quarter and beyond, though still significantly lower than the prior year period. Specifically, we are planning for our domestic capacity to be approximately 50% lower in the September 2020 quarter than the September 2019 quarter.

32

International

Passenger revenue related to our international regions decreased 97% year-over-year. The reductions in revenue and capacity discussed below were a result of reduced demand and government travel directives limiting or suspending air travel due to the spread of COVID-19. We expect this significantly lower demand environment to continue in the September 2020 quarter, and beyond, with improvement expected to lag behind the domestic recovery once government travel restrictions begin to lift and customer demand starts to return.

Atlantic. Unit revenue decreased 37% on a capacity reduction of 95% in the June 2020 quarter compared to the prior year period. We are planning for our capacity in the September 2020 quarter to be approximately 80% lower than the September 2019 quarter.

Latin America. Unit revenue decreased 30% on a capacity reduction of 97% in the June 2020 quarter compared to the prior year period. We are planning for our capacity in the September 2020 quarter to be approximately 80% lower than the September 2019 quarter. In May 2020, we signed a trans-American joint venture agreement with LATAM that, subject to regulatory approvals, will combine our highly complementary route networks between North and South America, with the goal of providing customers with a seamless travel experience and industry-leading connectivity. We continue to believe this alliance will generate growth opportunities, building upon Delta's and LATAM's global footprint and joint ventures. See Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our strategic alliance with LATAM and the impact of its recent bankruptcy filing.

Pacific. Unit revenue decreased 50% on a capacity reduction of 90% in the June 2020 quarter compared to the prior year period. We are planning for our capacity in the September 2020 quarter to be approximately 80% lower than the September 2019 quarter.

In each of these regions, we continue to monitor government travel directives and customer demand and will adjust flight schedules accordingly.

Other Revenue

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Increase (Decrease)		% Increase (Decrease)
(in millions)	2020		2019
Loyalty program	$	269	$	484	$	(215)	(44)	%

Miscellaneous	23		168		(145)		(86)	%
Total other revenue	$	682	$	982	$	(300)	(31)	%

Loyalty Program. Loyalty program revenues relate to brand usage by third parties and other performance obligations embedded in miles sold, including redemption of miles for non-travel awards. These revenues are mainly driven by customer spend on American Express cards, which has experienced a decline in demand, although less severe than air travel, during the quarter.

Ancillary Businesses and Refinery. Ancillary businesses and refinery includes aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties, our vacation wholesale operations and refinery sales to third parties. Refinery sales to third parties, which are at or near cost, increased $252 million compared to the June 2019 quarter. The increase in third-party refinery sales resulted from the refinery's shift to producing more non-jet fuel products due to the decline in demand for jet fuel. The increase in refinery sales was partially offset by a $105 million decline in revenue from aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties, which decreased due to the reduction in flights operated worldwide. In addition, the June 2019 quarter results included $49 million of revenue from Delta Private Jets, which was combined with Wheels Up in January 2020 and is no longer reflected in ancillary businesses and refinery.

Miscellaneous. Miscellaneous revenue is primarily composed of lounge access and codeshare revenues. The volume of these transactions has fallen compared to the June 2019 quarter due to the impact of, and our response to, the COVID-19 pandemic.

Total operating expense	$	6,283	$	10,408	$	(4,125)	(40)	%

Salaries and Related Costs. The decrease in salaries and related costs is primarily due to actions taken as a result of decreased demand for air travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in March 2020, we instituted a hiring freeze, reduced salaries by 50% and 25% for our officer and director level employees, respectively, and reduced work hours by 25% for all other management and most front-line employee work groups. Beginning in the September 2020 quarter, the 25% work-hour reduction will apply to our director level employees in place of the 25% salary reduction. These aforementioned reductions will continue through the September 2020 quarter. Additionally, approximately 45,000 of our employees have taken or will be taking a voluntary unpaid leave of absence for periods ranging from 30 days up to 12 months. Also, during the June 2020 quarter, we announced voluntary separation programs primarily for eligible U.S. employees. As a result, we expect salaries and related costs to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period.

Aircraft Fuel and Related Taxes. Fuel expense decreased $1.9 billion compared to the prior year quarter primarily due to an 85% decrease in consumption and an approximately 30% decrease in the market price per gallon of jet fuel. We expect consumption in future periods to decline versus the comparable prior year period, in line with the expected capacity reductions discussed above.

The table below shows the impact of hedging and the refinery on fuel expense and average price per gallon, adjusted (non-GAAP financial measures):

							Average Price Per Gallon

Regional Carriers Expense, Excluding Fuel. The decrease in regional carriers expense is due to the decreased capacity and utilization of these carriers. We expect regional carriers expense to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to aircraft that have been retired and thus no longer incur depreciation. Retirement of the MD-88 and MD-90 fleets, as well as 10 A320 and seven 767-300ER aircraft, was completed in the June 2020 quarter. The 777 and 737-700 fleets are expected to be retired by October 2020. Impairments related to the retirements of these fleets are reflected in restructuring charges, discussed below. See Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about these fleet retirements. We expect depreciation and amortization expense to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to these retirements.

Contracted Services. The decrease in contracted services is due to reduced utilization of services resulting from the decreased capacity. We expect contracted services expense to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Landing Fees and Other Rents. A portion of our landing fees and other rents are variable in nature and are dependent on factors such as the number of departures. The decrease in landing fees and other rents is due to the reduction in capacity and number of flights operated during the June 2020 quarter. We expect landing fees and other rents to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Ancillary Businesses and Refinery. Ancillary businesses and refinery includes expenses associated with aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties, our vacation wholesale operations and refinery sales to third parties. Increased expenses were primarily related to refinery sales to third parties, which are at or near cost. These refinery cost of sales increased $252 million compared to the June 2019 quarter. Due to the decrease in demand for jet fuel, the refinery has shifted production to more non-jet fuel products, which is expected to increase the sales to third parties during the second half of 2020 compared to the prior year period. The increase in refinery costs was partially offset by lower expenses related to aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties compared to the June 2019 quarter due to the reduction in flights operated worldwide. In addition, costs related to services performed by Delta Private Jets in the June 2019 quarter were recorded in ancillary businesses and refinery prior to the combination of that business with Wheels Up in January 2020.

Aircraft Maintenance Materials and Outside Repairs. The reduction in aircraft maintenance materials and outside repairs is a result of the reduction in capacity and the large number of aircraft we parked in the June 2020 quarter, as well as the initiative to delay non-essential maintenance projects.

Passenger Commissions and Other Selling Expenses. The decrease in passenger commissions and other selling expenses is primarily related to the significant reduction in demand for travel due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect passenger commissions and other selling expenses to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Passenger Service. The decrease in passenger service expenses is due to the decrease in the number of flights and passengers in the June 2020 quarter, which resulted in fewer passenger service expenses such as meals and catering. We expect passenger service expenses to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Restructuring Charges. Restructuring charges are composed of various expenses that resulted from the unprecedented impact on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, including fleet impairment charges and reserves recognized on receivables. In the June 2020 quarter we recorded impairment charges of $1.4 billion related to the 777 fleet, $330 million related to the MD-90 fleet, $220 million related to the 737-700 fleet, $180 million related to the seven retired 767-300ER aircraft and $60 million related to the 10 retired A320 aircraft. In the June 2020 quarter we recorded $98 million of reserves against outstanding receivables from Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Australia, LATAM, Grupo Aeroméxico and others reflecting our expected recoveries given their restructuring efforts or recent bankruptcy filings.

CARES Act Grant Recognition. In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $5.4 billion in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through July 2020. The relief payments include a grant of $3.8 billion, of which we received $3.5 billion in the June 2020 quarter, that is being recognized as a contra-expense over the periods that the funds are intended to compensate. We expect to recognize the remainder of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as contra-expense by the end of 2020.

35

Profit Sharing. Our profit sharing program pays 10% to all eligible employees for the first $2.5 billion of annual profit and 20% of annual profit above $2.5 billion. The decrease in profit sharing is due to the current expectations for a pre-tax loss in 2020 compared to expectations for pre-tax income in the June 2019 quarter.

Other. The decrease in other expense is primarily driven by lower volume-related costs resulting from the decreased capacity during the June 2020 quarter. We expect other expense to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Operating Revenue

Compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019, our operating revenue decreased $12.9 billion, or 56%, due to reduced demand resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic beginning in the second half of March 2020. The decrease in operating revenue generated a 16% decrease in TRASM and a 17% decrease in TRASM, adjusted compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019.

The length and severity of the reduction in travel demand due to the COVID-19 pandemic are uncertain. We expect these trends in revenue to continue until the global pandemic has moderated and demand for air travel returns.

Passenger Revenue by Geographic Region

Passenger revenue decreased $12.4 billion, or 60%, compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. PRASM decreased 23% and passenger mile yield decreased 2% on 48% lower capacity. Load factor decreased 18 points from the prior year period to 67%.

Domestic

Prior to the initial effects of the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, domestic results were strong with revenue nearly 10% higher than the prior year period. However, due to the decrease in customer demand beginning in March, passenger unit revenue related to our domestic region decreased 28% with capacity down 43% compared to the prior year period. We are planning for incremental improvement to the demand environment to continue in the September 2020 quarter and beyond, though still significantly lower than the prior year period.

37

International

Passenger revenue related to our international regions decreased 64% year-over-year. The reductions in revenue and capacity discussed below were a result of reduced demand and government travel directives limiting or suspending air travel due to the spread of COVID-19. We expect this significantly lower demand environment to continue in the September 2020 quarter, and beyond, with improvement expected to lag behind the domestic recovery once government travel restrictions begin to be lifted and customer demand starts to return.

Atlantic. Unit revenue decreased 20% on a capacity reduction of 62% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period.

Latin America. Unit revenue decreased 9% on a capacity reduction of 47% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period.

Pacific. Unit revenue decreased 15% on a capacity reduction of 60% in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period. Also, as previously announced, in March 2020 we transferred our U.S.-Tokyo services from Narita to Haneda airport, Tokyo's preferred airport for corporate customers.

In each of these regions we continue to monitor government travel directives and customer demand and will adjust flight schedules accordingly.

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, we completed two transactions to further strengthen our international partnerships. In the Atlantic region, effective January 2020, we combined our separate transatlantic joint venture agreements with Air France-KLM and Virgin Atlantic into a single three-party transatlantic joint venture. This enhanced joint venture is designed to strengthen collaboration between the three airlines and is expected to provide customers with increased access to destinations across North America, the U.K. and Europe. In the Latin America region, in January 2020, we completed the tender offer to acquire 20% of the shares of LATAM as part of our plan to enter into a strategic alliance. Additionally, in the March 2020 quarter, we started codesharing for certain flights operated by LATAM. In May 2020, we signed a trans-American joint venture agreement with LATAM that, subject to regulatory approvals, will combine our highly complementary route networks between North and South America, with the goal of providing customers with a seamless travel experience and industry-leading connectivity. We continue to believe this alliance will generate growth opportunities, building upon Delta's and LATAM's global footprint and joint ventures. See Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our strategic alliance with LATAM and the impact of its recent bankruptcy filing.

Other Revenue

	Six Months Ended June 30,				Increase (Decrease)		% Increase (Decrease)
(in millions)	2020		2019

Total other revenue	$	1,552	$	2,008	$	(456)	(23)	%

Loyalty Program. Loyalty program revenues relate to brand usage by third parties and other performance obligations embedded in miles sold, including redemption of miles for non-travel awards. These revenues are mainly driven by customer spend on American Express cards, which has experienced a decline in demand, although less severe than air travel.

Ancillary Businesses and Refinery. Ancillary businesses and refinery includes aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties, our vacation wholesale operations and refinery sales to third parties. Refinery sales to third parties, which are at or near cost, increased $203 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. The increase in third-party refinery sales resulted from the refinery's shift to producing more non-jet fuel products due to the decline in demand for jet fuel. The increase in refinery sales was partially offset by a $150 million decline in revenue from aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties, which decreased due to the reduction in flights operated worldwide. In addition, the six months ended June 30, 2019 results also included $100 million of revenue from Delta Private Jets, which was combined with Wheels Up in January 2020 and is no longer reflected in ancillary businesses and refinery.

Miscellaneous. Miscellaneous revenue is primarily composed of lounge access and codeshare revenues. The volume of these transactions has fallen compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to the impact of, and our response to, the COVID-19 pandemic.

Salaries and Related Costs. The decrease in salaries and related costs is primarily due to actions taken as a result of decreased demand for air travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Beginning in March 2020, we instituted a hiring freeze, reduced salaries by 50% and 25% for our officer and director level employees, respectively, and reduced work hours by 25% for all other management and most front-line employee work groups. Beginning in the September 2020 quarter, the 25% work-hour reduction will apply to our director level employees in place of the 25% salary reduction. These aforementioned reductions will continue through the September 2020 quarter. Additionally, approximately 45,000 of our employees have taken or will be taking a voluntary unpaid leave of absence for periods ranging from 30 days up to 12 months. Also, during the June 2020 quarter, we announced voluntary separation programs primarily for eligible U.S. employees. As a result, we expect salaries and related costs to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period.

Aircraft Fuel and Related Taxes. Fuel expense decreased $2.3 billion compared to the prior year due to a 49% decrease in consumption and an approximately 13% decrease in the market price per gallon of jet fuel. We expect consumption to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period, in line with the expected capacity reductions discussed above.

The table below shows the impact of hedging and the refinery on fuel expense and average price per gallon, adjusted (non-GAAP financial measures):

Regional Carriers Expense, Excluding Fuel. The decrease in regional carriers expense is due to the decreased capacity and utilization of these carriers. We expect regional carriers expense to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Depreciation and Amortization. The decrease in depreciation and amortization is primarily due to aircraft that have been retired and thus no longer incur depreciation. Retirement of the MD-88 and MD-90 fleets, as well as 10 A320 and seven 767-300ER aircraft, was completed in the June 2020 quarter. The 777 and 737-700 fleets are expected to be retired by October 2020. Impairments related to the retirements of these fleets are reflected in restructuring charges, discussed below. See Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information about these fleet retirements.

Contracted Services. The decrease in contracted services is due to reduced utilization of services resulting from the decreased capacity discussed above. We expect contracted services expense to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Ancillary Businesses and Refinery. Ancillary businesses and refinery includes expenses associated with aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties, our vacation wholesale operations and refinery sales to third parties. The decrease in these expenses primarily related to a reduction in aircraft maintenance services we provide to third parties compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019 due to the reduction in flights operated worldwide. In addition, costs related to services performed by Delta Private Jets in the six months ended June 30, 2019 were recorded in ancillary businesses and refinery prior to the combination of that business with Wheels Up in January 2020. These decreases were partially offset by the cost of refinery sales to third parties, which are at or near cost. These refinery cost of sales increased $203 million compared to the six months ended June 30, 2019. Due to the decrease in demand for jet fuel, the refinery has shifted production to more non-jet fuel products, which is expected to increase the sales to third parties during the second half of 2020 compared to the prior year period.

Aircraft Maintenance Materials and Outside Repairs. The reduction in aircraft maintenance materials and outside repairs is a result of the reduction in capacity and large number of aircraft we parked since the beginning of the year, as well as the initiative to delay non-essential maintenance projects.

Passenger Commissions and Other Selling Expenses. The decrease in passenger commissions and other selling expenses is primarily related to the significant reduction in demand for travel due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We expect passenger commissions and other selling expenses to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Passenger Service. The decrease in passenger service expenses is due to the decrease in the number of flights and passengers during the six months ended June 30, 2020, which resulted in fewer passenger service expenses such as meals and catering. We expect passenger service expenses to decline in future periods versus the comparable prior year period due to the capacity reductions discussed above.

Restructuring Charges. Restructuring charges are composed of various expenses that resulted from the unprecedented impact on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, including fleet impairment charges and reserves recognized on receivables. In the June 2020 quarter we recorded impairment charges of $1.4 billion related to the 777 fleet, $330 million related to the MD-90 fleet, $220 million related to the 737-700 fleet, $180 million related to the seven retired 767-300ER aircraft and $60 million related to the 10 retired A320 aircraft. In the June 2020 quarter we recorded $98 million of reserves against outstanding receivables from Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Australia, LATAM, Grupo Aeroméxico and others reflecting our expected recoveries given their restructuring efforts or recent bankruptcy filings.

CARES Act Grant Recognition. In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $5.4 billion in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through July 2020. The relief payments include a grant $3.8 billion, of which we received $3.5 billion in the June 2020 quarter, that is being recognized as a contra-expense over the periods that the funds are intended to compensate. We expect to recognize the remainder of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as contra-expense by the end of 2020.

Profit Sharing. Our profit sharing program pays 10% to all eligible employees for the first $2.5 billion of annual profit and 20% of annual profit above $2.5 billion. The decrease in profit sharing is due to the current expectations for a pre-tax loss in 2020 compared to expectations for pre-tax income during the six months ended June 30, 2019.

Other. The decrease in other expense is primarily driven by lower volume-related costs resulting from the decreased capacity during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Total non-operating expense, net	$	(2,199)	$	(221)	$	(1,978)	$	(2,396)	$	(295)	$	(2,101)

Interest expense. Interest expense increased compared to the prior year periods as a result of the financing arrangements entered into during the six months ended June 30, 2020. See Note 2 and Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on recent financings. As our debt balance has increased, we expect interest expense to increase during the remainder of 2020 and the first half of 2021 compared to the prior year periods.

Impairments and equity method losses. Impairments and equity method losses reflects our share of LATAM and Grupo Aeroméxico's equity method results prior to their respective bankruptcy filings, our share of Virgin Atlantic's equity method results and the impairments reducing the basis of these investments to zero during the June 2020 quarter. See Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our equity investments.

Gain/(loss) on investments, net. Gain/(loss) on investments, net reflects the gains and losses on our equity investments measured at fair value on a recurring basis.

Miscellaneous. Miscellaneous, net includes pension and related expense and foreign exchange gains/losses. Foreign exchange gains/losses vary and impact the comparability of miscellaneous, net from period to period. The increase in the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the prior year period is primarily due to the $240 million gain recognized as a result of the combination of Delta Private Jets with Wheels Up in January 2020.

Income Taxes

We project that our annual effective tax rate for 2020 will be between 15% and 18%. In certain interim periods, we may have adjustments to our net deferred tax liabilities as a result of changes in prior year estimates and tax laws enacted during the period, which will impact the effective tax rate for that interim period.

Refinery Segment

The refinery operated by our subsidiary Monroe Energy, LLC ("Monroe") primarily produces gasoline, diesel and jet fuel. Monroe exchanges the non-jet fuel products the refinery produces with third parties for jet fuel consumed in our airline operations. Historically, the jet fuel produced and procured through exchanging gasoline and diesel fuel produced by the refinery provided approximately 200,000 barrels per day, or approximately 75% of our consumption, for use in our airline operations. We believe that the jet fuel supply resulting from the refinery's operation contributes to reducing the market price of jet fuel and thus lowers our cost of jet fuel compared to what it otherwise would be.

The refinery’s production has also been altered by the dramatic change in economic conditions caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. During 2020, the refinery expects to operate at 60% – 90% of normal production levels, largely due to the significant decrease in the demand for jet fuel. Additionally, due to the decrease in demand for jet fuel, we have shifted our production to produce more non-jet fuel products. Those non-jet fuel products will continue to be exchanged for jet fuel to the extent that we can balance refinery sales with jet fuel demand.

41

The refinery recorded operating revenue of $513 million and $1.7 billion in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to $1.5 billion and $2.8 billion in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019. As a result of the refinery's shift to producing more non-jet fuel products, operating revenue in the three months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily composed of $153 million of non-jet fuel product sales and $292 million of refinery sales to third parties. Operating revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020 was primarily composed of $895 million of non-jet fuel products exchanged with third parties to procure jet fuel, $214 million of sales of jet fuel to the airline segment, and $296 million of non-jet fuel product sales. Refinery revenues decreased compared to the prior year periods due to lower refinery run rates during the quarter, as well as lower pricing for refined products.

The refinery recorded operating losses of $114 million and $85 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to operating income of $37 million and $3 million in the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

A refinery is subject to annual U.S. Environmental Protection Agency requirements to blend renewable fuels into the gasoline and on-road diesel fuel it produces. Alternatively, a refinery may purchase renewable energy credits, called Renewable Identification Numbers ("RINs"), from third parties in the secondary market. The Monroe refinery purchases the majority of its RINs requirement in the secondary market.

For more information regarding the refinery's results, see Note 11 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

To align capacity with customer demand as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic we are working with OEMs to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries and have removed from active service approximately 600 mainline and regional aircraft. As of June 30, 2020, we had temporarily parked approximately 500 aircraft and permanently parked approximately 100 aircraft.

During the March 2020 quarter, we recorded a $22 million impairment charge related to accelerating the planned retirement of the MD-88 fleet from December 2020 to June 2020. During the June 2020 quarter, we recorded impairment charges of $1.4 billion related to retiring the 777 fleet by October 2020, $330 million related to retiring the MD-90 fleet, $220 million related to retiring the 737-700 fleet by October 2020, $180 million related to retiring seven 767-300ER aircraft and $60 million related to retiring 10 A320 aircraft. These MD-90s, 767-300ERs and A320s were retired in June 2020. Each of the retirement decisions resulted in a reduction in forecasted cash flows which led to the impairment charges. As we obtain greater clarity around the duration and extent of reduced demand and potentially execute further capacity adjustments, we will continue to evaluate our current fleet compared to network requirements and may decide to permanently retire additional aircraft. See Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information on our fleet retirements.

Prior to the onset of the pandemic and our decision to work with OEMs to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries, we took delivery of eight mainline aircraft and two CRJ-900 aircraft in the March 2020 quarter.

Our operating aircraft fleet, commitments and options at June 30, 2020 are summarized in the following table:

We have assumed ten of LATAM's A350 purchase commitments from Airbus, with deliveries through 2025, which are included as purchase commitments in the table above. We had previously agreed to acquire four A350 aircraft from LATAM, but have terminated the purchase agreement for a fee of $62 million during the June 2020 quarter. For more information regarding our planned strategic alliance with LATAM, see Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The table below summarizes the aircraft operated by regional carriers on our behalf at June 30, 2020. Of this fleet, we have temporarily parked approximately 110 aircraft as of June 30, 2020. The majority of these temporarily parked aircraft are part of our Endeavor fleet but also include aircraft operated by SkyWest and Republic.

In April 2020, Compass and GoJet ceased operations on our behalf. Our contracts with each of these carriers were previously scheduled to terminate by the end of 2020. Aircraft previously operated by Compass and GoJet are now being operated by our other regional carriers and are reflected in the table below.

Financial Condition and Liquidity

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have taken, and are continuing to take, certain actions to increase liquidity and strengthen our financial position, which include the following during the six months ended June 30, 2020:

•Reducing planned capital expenditures by approximately $3.5 billion for the year, including working with original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries, delaying aircraft modifications and postponing certain information technology initiatives and replacement of ground equipment.

•Receiving $4.9 billion as part of the CARES Act payroll support program as described below.

•Obtaining financing through the following actions:

◦Drawing $3.0 billion from our previously undrawn revolving credit facilities. We have extended the maturity for $1.3 billion of these borrowings from April 2021 to April 2022 and also secured $2.7 billion of these borrowings with our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets. See Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

◦Entering into a $3.0 billion 364-day secured term loan facility.

◦Entering into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions. See Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

◦Issuing $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entering into a $1.5 billion term loan, both of which are secured by certain slots, gates and routes.

◦Issuing $1.3 billion of unsecured notes.

◦Completing $1.4 billion in transactions secured by aircraft, including EETC issuances and aircraft loans.

•Amending our credit facilities to replace fixed charge coverage ratio covenants with liquidity-based covenants.

•Suspending share repurchases and dividends.

•Postponing $500 million of planned voluntary pension funding.

We expect to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months with cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, financing arrangements, government assistance under the CARES Act, restricted cash equivalents and cash flows from operations. As of June 30, 2020, we had $15.7 billion in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities. We have additional unencumbered assets available for potential financing arrangements, if needed. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and prior to the materialization of the pandemic impact, we used existing cash and cash received from financings to fund capital expenditures of $1.2 billion and return $604 million to shareholders. Beginning in the second half of March 2020, capital expenditures have been limited to only those critical to our operation. In addition, share repurchases and dividends have been suspended indefinitely.

Sources and Uses of Liquidity

Operating Activities

Operating activities in the six months ended June 30, 2020 provided $68 million compared to providing $5.2 billion in the six months ended June 30, 2019. Due to the impact of COVID-19 on our ticket sales, we expect to experience negative cash flows from operations through the remainder of 2020 and possibly beyond.

Our operating cash flow is impacted by the following factors:

Seasonality of Advance Ticket Sales. We sell tickets for air travel in advance of the customer's travel date. When we receive a cash payment at the time of sale, we record the cash received on advance sales as deferred revenue in air traffic liability. The air traffic liability typically increases during the winter and spring months as advanced ticket sales grow prior to the summer peak travel season and decreases during the summer and fall months. However, the current reduction in demand for air travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented low level of advance bookings and the associated cash received. We also began experiencing significant ticket cancellations in the second half of March, which has led to issuance of refunds to customers, while the remainder of cancellations have been rebooked on future flights or received credits in lieu of cash refunds. The total value of refunds, excluding taxes and related fees, issued to customers during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $1.3 billion and $2.1 billion. The outlook for the remainder of the year is unclear, but we are currently planning for modest demand recovery beginning in the September 2020 quarter.

Fuel. Fuel expense represented approximately 13% of our total operating expense for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The market price for jet fuel is volatile, which can impact the comparability of our periodic cash flows from operations. We expect fuel consumption to decline compared to prior year periods consistent with the capacity reductions we have made in response to the pandemic.

Pension Contributions. We have no minimum funding requirements in 2020. As part of our liquidity initiatives, we are delaying $500 million of voluntary pension funding that we were previously planning for 2020. We had no minimum funding requirements in 2019. However, during 2019, we voluntarily contributed $1.0 billion to these plans.

Profit Sharing. Our broad-based employee profit sharing program provides that for each year in which we have an annual pre-tax profit, as defined by the terms of the program, we will pay a specified portion of that profit to employees. In determining the amount of profit sharing, the program defines profit as pre-tax profit adjusted for profit sharing and certain other items. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, we did not accrue profit sharing expense based on the year-to-date performance and current expectations for a pre-tax loss in 2020 due to the pandemic.

We paid $1.6 billion in profit sharing in February 2020 related to our 2019 pre-tax profit in recognition of our employees' contributions toward meeting our financial goals.

CARES Act. See Financing Activities below for discussion of the impact to our liquidity from the CARES Act payroll support program.

Investing Activities

Short-Term Investments. Using a portion of the proceeds we obtained through our financing transactions discussed below, in the six months ended June 30, 2020 we acquired a net of $4.3 billion in short-term investments. See Note 4 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information on these investments.

Capital Expenditures. Our capital expenditures were $1.2 billion and $2.9 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. Our capital expenditures during the six months ended June 30, 2020 were primarily related to the purchases of aircraft, fleet modifications and technology enhancements prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic.

We have committed to future aircraft purchases and have obtained, but are under no obligation to use, long-term financing commitments for a substantial portion of the purchase price of certain aircraft; however we are working with the OEMs to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries. In order to preserve liquidity throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, we are deferring substantially all of our previously planned 2020 capital expenditures. Excluding the airport projects discussed below, we do not expect to incur material capital expenditures for the remainder of 2020. Planned investments for the remainder of the year are limited to those critical to our operation.

46

In October 2019, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative announced a 10% tariff on new aircraft imported from Europe, which was subsequently increased to 15% in February 2020. We are continuing to evaluate the impact of this announcement on our future Airbus deliveries.

Equity Investments. In January 2020, we acquired 20% of the shares of LATAM for $1.9 billion, or $16 per share, through a tender offer. In addition, to support the establishment of the strategic alliance, we agreed to make transition payments to LATAM totaling $350 million, $200 million of which was disbursed in 2019. The remaining $150 million will be disbursed in equal quarterly payments through 2021, beginning in the September 2020 quarter.

As part of our planned strategic alliance with LATAM, we have also assumed 10 of LATAM's A350 purchase commitments with Airbus for deliveries through 2025. We had also previously agreed to acquire four A350 aircraft from LATAM, but have terminated the purchase agreement for a fee of $62 million during the June 2020 quarter. We continue to believe this alliance will generate growth opportunities, building upon Delta's and LATAM's global footprint and joint ventures.

We sold our GOL ownership stake in 2019 and have ended our commercial agreements with GOL to facilitate the formation of our strategic alliance with LATAM. Additionally, GOL has a $300 million five-year term loan facility with third parties maturing in August 2020, which we have guaranteed. Based on market value at June 30, 2020, approximately 60% of our guaranty is secured by GOL's ownership interest in Smiles, GOL's publicly traded loyalty program. Because GOL remains in compliance with the terms of its loan facility, we have not recorded a liability for the full value of the term loan on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. However, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the global economy, there is an increased risk related to GOL's ability to repay this term loan, which may require our performance under this guaranty. Therefore, we recorded an immaterial reserve in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet and restructuring charges in our income statement related to the decline in value of our security interest in GOL's Smiles shares compared to our guaranty of GOL's term loan.

In the March 2020 quarter, we acquired through open market transactions, an additional 5% of the outstanding shares of Hanjin-KAL, the largest shareholder of Korean Air, for $158 million. This acquisition brought our total ownership interest in Hanjin-KAL to slightly less than 15%.

Los Angeles International Airport ("LAX") Construction. We executed a modified lease agreement during 2016 with the City of Los Angeles ("the City"), which owns and operates LAX, and announced plans to modernize, upgrade and connect Terminals 2 and 3 at LAX. Under the lease agreement, we have relocated certain airlines and other tenants from Terminals 2 and 3 to Terminals 5 and 6 and undertaken various initial projects to enable operations from Terminals 2 and 3 during the project. We are now designing and constructing the redevelopment of Terminal 3 and enhancement of Terminal 2, which also includes rebuilding the ticketing and arrival halls and security checkpoint, construction of core infrastructure to support the City's planned airport people mover, ramp improvements and construction of a secure connector to the north side of the Tom Bradley International Terminal. Construction is expected to be completed by 2023.

Under the lease agreement and subsequent project component approvals by the City's Board of Airport Commissioners, the City has appropriated to date approximately $1.6 billion to purchase completed project assets. The lease allows for a maximum reimbursement by the City of $1.8 billion. Costs we incur in excess of such a maximum will not be reimbursed by the City.

A substantial majority of the project costs will be funded through the Regional Airports Improvement Corporation ("RAIC"), a California public benefit corporation, using an $800 million revolving credit facility provided by a group of lenders. The credit facility was executed during 2017 and amended in 2019, and we have guaranteed the obligations of the RAIC under the credit facility. Loans made under the credit facility are being repaid with the proceeds from the City’s purchase of completed project assets. Given reduced passenger volumes resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic, we intend to accelerate the construction schedule for this project. Using cash on hand and/or the credit facility, we expect to spend approximately $350 million, an increase from the previous estimate of $200 million, on this project during 2020, of which $99 million was incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

New York-LaGuardia Redevelopment. As part of the terminal redevelopment project at LaGuardia Airport, we are partnering with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (“Port Authority”) to replace Terminals C and D with a new state-of-the-art terminal facility consisting of 37 gates across four concourses connected to a central headhouse. The terminal will feature a new, larger Delta Sky Club, wider concourses, more gate seating and 30% more concessions space than the existing terminals. The facility will also offer direct access between the parking garage and terminal and improved roadways and drop-off/pick-up areas. The design of the new terminal will integrate sustainable technologies and improvements in energy efficiency. Construction will be phased to limit passenger inconvenience and is expected to be completed by 2026.

47

In connection with the redevelopment, during 2017, we entered into an amended and restated terminal lease with the Port Authority with a term through 2050. Pursuant to the lease agreement, as amended to date, we will (1) fund (through debt issuance and existing cash) and undertake the design, management and construction of the terminal and certain off-premises supporting facilities, (2) receive a Port Authority contribution of $481 million to facilitate construction of the terminal and other supporting infrastructure, (3) be responsible for all operations and maintenance during the term of the lease and (4) have preferential rights to all gates in the terminal, subject to Port Authority requirements with respect to accommodation of designated carriers.

In 2019, we opened Concourse G, the first of the four new concourses housing seven of the 37 new gates. Not only does this deliver the first direct impact to the Delta passenger experience, it also represents the first major phasing milestone. This new concourse allowed us to vacate portions of the existing terminals which have been demolished and made ready for the next phase of construction. The next major milestone will be the opening of the headhouse and Concourse E, which is scheduled for 2022.

We currently expect our project cost to be approximately $3.5 billion, net of the $481 million Port Authority contribution, and we bear the risks of project construction, including any potential cost over-runs. Using primarily funding provided by existing financing arrangements, we expect to spend approximately $700 million on this project during 2020, of which $224 million was incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Financing Activities

Debt and Finance Leases. In the six months ended June 30, 2020, we completed the following debt issuances and transactions:

•Drawing $3.0 billion from our previously undrawn revolving credit facilities. We have extended the maturity for $1.3 billion of these borrowings from April 2021 to April 2022 and also secured $2.7 billion of these borrowings with our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets.

•Entering into a $3.0 billion 364-day secured term loan facility.

•Entering into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions.

•Issuing $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entering into a $1.5 billion term loan, both of which are secured by certain slots, gates and routes.

•Issuing $1.3 billion of unsecured notes.

•Completing $1.4 billion in transactions secured by aircraft, including EETC issuances and aircraft loans. See Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

The principal amount of our debt and finance leases was $24.7 billion at June 30, 2020. We continue to evaluate leveraging our unencumbered assets to pursue future financing opportunities and we are evaluating participation in the CARES Act loan program, discussed below.

In response to the impact that the demand environment has had on our financial condition, our credit rating has been downgraded by Standard & Poor's to BB in March 2020 and by Fitch to BB+ in April 2020. Our credit rating from Moody's remains Baa3.

CARES Act. On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") into law. The CARES Act is a relief package intended to assist many aspects of the American economy, including providing the airline industry with up to $25 billion in grants to be used for employee wages, salaries and benefits.

In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $5.4 billion in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through July 2020. The relief payments are conditioned on our agreement to refrain from conducting involuntary employee layoffs or furloughs through September 30, 2020. Other conditions include prohibitions on share repurchases and dividends through September 30, 2021, continuing essential air service as directed by the U.S. Department of Transportation and certain limitations on executive compensation. The relief payments include $3.8 billion in a grant and $1.6 billion in an unsecured 10-year low interest loan. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 1.00% for the first five years (through April 2025) and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.00% in the final five years. In return, we agreed to issue to the U.S. Department of the Treasury warrants to acquire over 6.5 million shares of Delta common stock. These warrants have an exercise price of $24.39 per share and a five-year term.

48

In the June 2020 quarter, we received $4.9 billion under the CARES Act payroll support program, which consists of $3.5 billion in a grant and $1.4 billion in an unsecured loan. The remaining amount will be received in July 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we recognized $1.3 billion of the grant as contra-expense with the remaining $2.2 billion recorded as a deferred contra-expense in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet. We expect to recognize the remainder of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as contra-expense by the end of 2020.

The CARES Act also provides for up to $25 billion in secured loans to the airline industry. We are eligible and have entered into a non-binding letter of intent to the U.S. Department of the Treasury for $4.6 billion under the loan program. We have not decided if we will participate, and we have until September 30, 2020 to decide whether to participate in this program.

Finally, the CARES Act also provides for deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020, with 50% of the deferred amount due December 31, 2021 and the remaining 50% due December 31, 2022. This is expected to provide us with approximately $200 million of additional liquidity during the current year.

For additional information regarding these financing arrangements, see Note 2 and Note 7 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Capital Return to Shareholders. In early March 2020, we suspended both our share repurchase program and future dividends due to the impact of the pandemic. Prior to suspending these activities, in the March 2020 quarter, we repurchased and retired 6 million shares of our common stock at a cost of $344 million. Both share repurchases and dividends are restricted through the September 2021 quarter under the terms of the CARES Act payroll support program and certain of our other financing arrangements.

Undrawn Lines of Credit

Subsequent to the draws on our revolving lines of credit described above, we have approximately $39 million undrawn as of June 30, 2020.

Covenants

We were in compliance with the covenants in our financing agreements at June 30, 2020.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

For information regarding our Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates, see the "Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates" section of "Item 7. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" in our Form 10-K and Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion about the valuation of goodwill, indefinite-lived intangible assets and long-lived assets.

Recent Accounting Standards

Credit Losses. In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." Under this ASU, an entity is required to utilize an "expected credit loss model" on certain financial instruments, including trade and financing receivables. This model requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information and requires an entity to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020 and due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recorded reserves on certain receivables, which are discussed further in Note 5 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

49

Supplemental Information

We sometimes use information ("non-GAAP financial measures") that is derived from the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements but that is not presented in accordance with GAAP. Under the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission rules, non-GAAP financial measures may be considered in addition to results prepared in accordance with GAAP but should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. The reconciliations presented below of the non-GAAP measures used in this 10-Q may not calculate exactly due to rounding.

Pre-tax (loss)/income, adjusted

The following table shows a reconciliation of pre-tax (loss)/income (a GAAP measure) to pre-tax (loss)/income, adjusted (a non-GAAP financial measure). In the current period, pre-tax (loss)/income, adjusted excludes the following items directly related to the impact of COVID-19 and our response:

•Restructuring charges. We recognized $2.5 billion of restructuring charges following strategic business decisions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. These charges are primarily related to impairments from the decisions to retire the 777, MD-90 and 737-700 fleets and certain of our 767-300ER and A320 aircraft.

•CARES Act grant recognition. We recognized $1.3 billion of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as a contra-expense. We are recognizing the grant proceeds as contra-expense based on the periods that the funds are intended to compensate, and we expect to use all proceeds from the payroll support program by the end of 2020.

•Impairments and equity method losses. We recognized $2.1 billion of charges related to write-downs of our investments in LATAM and Grupo Aeroméxico following their financial losses and separate Chapter 11 bankruptcy filings, and the write-down of our investment in Virgin Atlantic based on our share of its historical and projected losses.

We also adjust pre-tax (loss)/income for the following items to determine pre-tax (loss)/income, adjusted for the reasons described below.

•MTM adjustments and settlements on hedges. MTM adjustments are defined as fair value changes recorded in periods other than the settlement period. Such fair value changes are not necessarily indicative of the actual settlement value of the underlying hedge in the contract settlement period. Settlements represent cash received or paid on hedge contracts settled during the applicable period.

•Equity investment MTM adjustments. We recorded our proportionate share of loss from our equity investments in Virgin Atlantic, Grupo Aeroméxico and LATAM in non-operating expense. (As a result of Grupo Aeroméxico's and LATAM’s bankruptcy filings, we no longer have significant influence over Grupo Aeroméxico or LATAM and have discontinued accounting for these investments under the equity method in the June 2020 quarter.) We adjust for our equity method investees' hedge portfolio MTM adjustments to allow investors to understand and analyze our core operational performance in the periods shown.

•MTM adjustments on investments. Unrealized gains/losses on our equity investments in China Eastern, Air France-KLM and Hanjin-KAL, the largest shareholder of Korean Air, which are accounted for at fair value in non-operating expense, are driven by changes in stock prices and foreign currency. Adjusting for these gains/losses allows investors to better understand and analyze our core operational performance in the periods shown.

•Delta Private Jets adjustment. Because we combined Delta Private Jets with Wheels Up in January 2020, we have excluded the impact of Delta Private Jets from 2019 results for comparability.

Operating Expense, adjusted

The following table shows a reconciliation of operating expense (a GAAP measure) to operating expense, adjusted (a non-GAAP financial measure). In the current period, operating expense, adjusted excludes the following items directly related to the impact of COVID-19 and our response: restructuring charges and CARES Act grant recognition, as discussed above under the heading pre-tax (loss)/income, adjusted. We also adjust operating expense for MTM adjustments and settlements, third-party refinery sales and Delta Private Jets sale adjustment for the same reasons described above under the headings pre-tax (loss)/income, adjusted to determine operating expense, adjusted.

TRASM, adjusted

The following table shows a reconciliation of TRASM (a GAAP measure) to TRASM, adjusted (a non-GAAP financial measure). We adjust TRASM for the following items to determine TRASM, adjusted for the reasons described below.

•Third-party refinery sales. We adjust TRASM for refinery sales to third parties to determine TRASM, adjusted because these revenues are not related to our airline segment. TRASM, adjusted therefore provides a more meaningful comparison of revenue from our airline operations to the rest of the airline industry.

•Delta Private Jets adjustment. Because we combined Delta Private Jets with Wheels Up in January 2020, we have excluded the impact of Delta Private Jets from 2019 results for comparability.

CASM-Ex

The following table shows a reconciliation of CASM (a GAAP measure) to CASM-Ex (a non-GAAP financial measure). In the current period, CASM-Ex excludes the following items directly related to the impact of COVID-19 and our response: including restructuring charges and CARES Act grant recognition, as discussed above under the heading pre-tax (loss)/income. We also adjust CASM for the following items to determine CASM-Ex for the reasons described below.

•Aircraft fuel and related taxes. The volatility in fuel prices impacts the comparability of year-over-year financial performance. The adjustment for aircraft fuel and related taxes allows investors to better understand and analyze our non-fuel costs and year-over-year financial performance.

•Third-party refinery sales. We adjust CASM for refinery sales to third parties to determine CASM-Ex because these revenues are not related to our airline segment. CASM-Ex therefore provides a more meaningful comparison of revenue from our airline operations to the rest of the airline industry.

•Profit sharing. We adjust for profit sharing because this adjustment allows investors to better understand and analyze our recurring cost performance and provides a more meaningful comparison of our core operating costs to the airline industry.

•Delta Private Jets adjustment. Because we combined Delta Private Jets with Wheels Up in January 2020, we have excluded the impact of Delta Private Jets from 2019 results for comparability.

Free Cash Flow

We present free cash flow because management believes this metric is helpful to investors to evaluate the company's ability to generate cash that is available for use for debt service or general corporate initiatives. Adjustments include:

•Net purchases of short-term investments. Net purchases of short-term investments represent the net purchase and sale activity of investments and marketable securities in the period, including gains and losses. We adjust for this activity to provide investors a better understanding of the company's free cash flow generated by our operations.

•Strategic investments. Cash flows related to our investments in LATAM and Hanjin-KAL, the largest shareholder of Korean Air, are included in our GAAP investing activities. We adjust free cash flow for this activity because it provides a more meaningful comparison to the airline industry.

•Net cash flows related to certain airport construction projects and other. Cash flows related to certain airport construction projects are included in our GAAP operating activities and capital expenditures. We have adjusted for these items, which were primarily funded by cash restricted for airport construction, to provide investors a better understanding of the company's free cash flow and capital expenditures that are core to our operational performance in the periods shown.

ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

There have been no material changes in market risk from the information provided in "Item 7A. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk" in our Form 10-K, other than related to interest rates, as discussed below.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk from adverse changes in interest rates is primarily associated with our debt obligations. Market risk associated with our fixed and variable rate debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates.

At June 30, 2020, we had $15.0 billion of fixed-rate debt and $8.6 billion of variable-rate debt. An increase of 100 basis points in average annual interest rates would have decreased the estimated fair value of our fixed-rate debt by $650 million at June 30, 2020 and would have increased the annual interest expense on our variable-rate debt by $59 million.

The U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced in July 2017 that it intends to no longer compel banks to submit rates for the calculation of the London interbank offered rate ("LIBOR") after 2021. To mitigate the possible impact, various regulators have proposed alternative reference rates. The effect of any discontinuation or replacement of LIBOR cannot be predicted at this time, but we believe our risk would be limited to variable rate debt and variable rate finance leases which utilize this rate. At June 30, 2020 we had approximately $5.4 billion of variable rate debt and variable rate finance leases maturing after 2021 that include provisions to update the applicable reference rate which are not expected to be materially different from LIBOR.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, performed an evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, which have been designed to permit us to effectively identify and timely disclose important information. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2020 to ensure that material information was accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

During the three months ended June 30, 2020, we did not make any changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION

ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

"Item 3. Legal Proceedings" of our Form 10-K includes a discussion of our legal proceedings. There have been no material changes from the legal proceedings described in our Form 10-K.

54

ITEM 1A. RISK FACTORS

“Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Form 10-K includes a discussion of our known material risk factors, other than risks that could apply to any issuer or offering. The information presented below updates, and should be read in conjunction with, the risk factors and information disclosed in our Form 10-K. Except as presented below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors described in our Form 10-K.

The rapid spread of the COVID-19 virus and measures implemented to combat it have had, and will continue to have, a material adverse effect on our business. Moreover, the longer the pandemic persists, the more material the ultimate effects are likely to be. It is likely that there will be future negative effects that we cannot presently predict, including near term effects.

The rapid spread of COVID-19, as well as the measures governments and private organizations have implemented in order to stem the spread of this pandemic, have had, and are continuing to have, a material adverse effect on the demand for worldwide air travel, and consequently upon our business. Among other effects of the COVID-19 pandemic affecting air travel and our business:

•In the United States, which is our primary market, the federal government has encouraged social distancing efforts and limits on gathering size, placed significant restrictions on travel between the United States and specific countries, issued a mandate for U.S. citizens to avoid all international travel and issued domestic travel restrictions and advisories;

•Many foreign governments have placed restrictions on citizens of other countries, including citizens of the U.S., flying into their countries;

•State and local governments have issued travel restrictions and advisories and health-related curfews or “shelter in place” orders which dissuade or restrict air travel;

•Employers in both the public and private sectors have issued instructions to employees to work from home and/or otherwise dissuading or restricting air travel;

•Business conventions and conferences, significant sporting events, concerts and similar entertainment have been, and are continuing to be, cancelled, reducing the demand for both business air travel (which drives our most profitable ticket sales) and leisure air travel;

•Many popular tourist destinations have been, and remain to be, closed, or operations are being curtailed, reducing the demand for leisure air travel;

•Travelers are discouraged from air travel to destinations where COVID-19 is particularly virulent;

•Travelers have indicated they are wary of airports and commercial aircraft, where they may view the risk of contagion as increased (and contagion or virus-related deaths linked or alleged to be linked to travel on our aircraft, whether accurate or not, may injure our reputation);

•Travelers may be dissuaded from flying due to possible enhanced COVID-19-related screening measures which are being implemented across multiple markets we serve; and

•Travelers may be dissuaded from flying due to the concern that additional travel restrictions implemented between their departure and return may affect their ability to return to their homes.

These effects related to the COVID-19 pandemic are negatively impacting air travel in general, which in turn are materially adversely affecting our revenues and results of operations. Although certain of the restrictions above have begun, and may continue, to ease in some places, the ongoing pandemic, including large outbreaks of COVID-19 in various regions, has resulted, and may continue to result, in their reinstitution. Moreover, additional currently unknown restrictions or other events dissuading air travel may occur in the future as a result of the pandemic (including possibly in the near term), lengthening the negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

Our operations could be negatively affected further if our employees are quarantined or sickened as a result of exposure to COVID-19, or if they are subject to additional governmental COVID-19 curfews or “shelter in place” health orders or similar restrictions. Measures restricting the ability of our airport or inflight employees to come to work may cause a further deterioration in our service or operations, all of which could negatively affect our business.

55

In response to the crisis, we are taking certain steps to mitigate the effects on our business, which themselves may have negative consequences with respect to our business and operations. For example, we have significantly reduced our flight capacity and have capped load factors on all flights that we are operating. However, the cost savings achievable with temporary capacity reductions cannot be achieved immediately and will not completely eliminate the costs related to unused capacity.

Furthermore, we have waived air travel booking change fees to a broad extent and extended the ability to rebook that travel for up to two years in order to encourage travelers to book air travel (or not cancel already booked travel) despite the inherent uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite these efforts, we have experienced significant ticket cancellations. Cancellations, the waiver of change fees and other refunds have negatively affected our revenues and liquidity, and we expect such negative effects to continue.

Other cost-saving measures that we have implemented, such as deferral of nonessential maintenance, capital expenditure reductions, voluntary early retirement and opt-out programs, hiring freezes, facility closures, deferral of pension funding and compensation reductions for officers and work-hour reductions for other employees, or may consider in the future, are unlikely to entirely make-up for the loss in cash as result of decreased ticket sales and cancellations and could also negatively affect our service to customers, revenues and results of operations. The pandemic is also having a material adverse effect on third parties whose services we utilize, including other carriers with which we have commercial relationships, including international carriers and regional carriers in the Delta Connection program, and providers of ground services at some airports, which may also negatively affect our service to customers.

We are unable to predict how long these conditions will persist, what additional measures may be introduced by governments or private parties or what effect any such additional measures may have on air travel and our business. Furthermore, not only is the duration of the pandemic and future correlative combative measures at present unknown, the overall situation is extremely fluid, and it is impossible to predict the timing of future material changes in the situation. It therefore is impossible to predict whether any such unknown future developments will occur in the near, medium or long terms, and depending on the duration of the pandemic, such negative developments may occur over the entirety of the event.

At this time, we are also not able to predict whether the COVID-19 pandemic will result in permanent changes to our customers' behavior, with such changes including but not limited to a permanent reduction in business travel as a result of increased usage of "virtual" and "teleconferencing" products and more broadly a general reluctance to travel by consumers, each of which could have a material impact on our business.

All of the foregoing have had, and are continuing to have, a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic may also exacerbate other risks discussed in this Form 10-Q, in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and in other filings we may make from time to time with the SEC.

We have a significant amount of fixed obligations and have incurred significant new debt in a short period in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Insufficient liquidity may have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and business.

We have a significant amount of existing fixed obligations, including aircraft lease and debt financings, leases of airport property and other facilities, and other material cash obligations. In response to the effects that the COVID-19 pandemic is having on our business, we have incurred and may continue to seek significant amounts of additional liquidity through the issuance of debt securities or through bilateral and syndicated secured and/or unsecured credit facilities and through the entry into sale-leaseback transactions. In addition, we have substantial noncancelable commitments for capital expenditures.

We had approximately $15.7 billion in cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities as of June 30, 2020; however, our future liquidity could be negatively affected by the risk factors discussed in this Form 10-Q, in “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 and in other filings we may make from time to time with the SEC. If our liquidity is materially diminished, we might not be able to timely pay our leases and debts or comply with certain financial covenants in our financing and credit card processing agreements or with other material provisions of our contractual obligations. In particular, under our credit card processing agreements, counterparties may require that we maintain a reserve equal to a portion of advanced ticket sales that have been processed by that financial institution, but for which we have not yet provided the air transportation.

56

Agreements governing our debt, including credit agreements, include financial and other covenants. Failure to comply with these covenants could result in events of default.

Our primary credit facilities have various financial and other covenants that require us to maintain a minimum liquidity coverage ratio and a minimum collateral coverage ratio. Some of our debt instruments, including our secured notes, also contain collateral coverage ratios. A decline in the value of our assets supporting these facilities due to factors that are not under our control could affect one or more of the ratios. In addition, these facilities contain other negative covenants customary for such financings. While these covenants are subject to important exceptions and qualifications, if we fail to comply with them and are unable to obtain a waiver or amendment, refinance the indebtedness subject to these covenants or take other mitigating actions, an event of default would result. These arrangements also contain other events of default customary for such financings.

If an event of default were to occur, the lenders and noteholders could, among other things, declare outstanding amounts due and payable and where applicable, repossess collateral, which may include aircraft or other valuable assets. In addition, an event of default or declaration of acceleration under one facility or indenture could result in an event of default under other of our financing agreements. The acceleration of significant amounts of debt could require us to renegotiate, repay or refinance the obligations under our financing arrangements.

Our significant investments in airlines in other parts of the world and the commercial relationships that we have with those carriers may not produce the returns or results we expect.

An important part of our strategy to expand our global network has been to make significant investments in airlines in other parts of the world and expand our commercial relationships with these carriers, including through contractual joint venture arrangements. We expect to continue exploring ways to expand and deepen our alliance relationships with other carriers as part of our global business strategy. These investments and relationships involve significant challenges and risks, including that we may not realize a satisfactory return on our investment or that they may not generate the expected financial results. We are dependent on these other carriers for significant aspects of our network in the regions in which they operate. While we work closely with these carriers, we do not have control over their operations or business methods, and to the extent their actions have a significant adverse effect on our operations, our results of operations could be materially adversely affected. Additionally, if the operations of any of these carriers are impacted over an extended period, those operational impacts could adversely affect the services we provide to our customers, and our results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

The COVID-19 pandemic has significantly impacted the operations of our airline partners. These carriers have incurred significant financial losses as a result of the pandemic, and some have been or may be forced to seek protection under applicable bankruptcy laws. For example, in the quarter ended June 30, 2020, LATAM Airlines and Grupo Aeroméxico filed voluntary proceedings to reorganize under Chapter 11 of the U.S. bankruptcy code and Virgin Australia entered voluntary administration in Australia seeking to recapitalize its business. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, along with these actions, have adversely impacted our equity investments in these carriers, and similar actions by other foreign airline partners could adversely impact our equity investments in those carriers, potentially leading to reduced influence over, and impairments or other write-downs of assets associated with, these investments. If any carriers seeking to restructure are unable to do so successfully, our business and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.

In certain circumstances, we also may be subject to consequences of the failure of these carriers to comply with laws and regulations, including U.S. laws to which they may be subject. For example, we may be subject to consequences from improper behavior of our joint venture partners, including for failure to comply with anti-corruption laws such as the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. Such a result could have a material adverse effect on our operating results.

57

ITEM 2. UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

The following table presents information with respect to purchases of common stock we made during the June 2020 quarter. In March 2020, we suspended our share repurchase program due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and are restricted from conducting share repurchases through the September 2021 quarter under the CARES Act and certain of our other financing arrangements. Therefore, there were no shares repurchased in the June 2020 quarter pursuant to our $5 billion share repurchase program.

The table reflects shares withheld from employees to satisfy certain tax obligations due in connection with grants of stock under the Delta Air Lines, Inc. Performance Compensation Plan (the "Plan"). The Plan provides for the withholding of shares to satisfy tax obligations. It does not specify a maximum number of shares that can be withheld for this purpose. The shares of common stock withheld to satisfy tax withholding obligations may be deemed to be "issuer purchases" of shares that are required to be disclosed pursuant to this Item.

Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased	Average Price Paid Per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Plans or Programs	Approximate Dollar Value (in millions) of Shares That May Yet be Purchased Under the Plan or Programs
April 2020	20,280	$	27.53	20,280		$	730
May 2020	19,987	$	22.36	19,987		$	730
June 2020	7,293	$	28.86	7,293		$	730
Total	47,560			47,560

As previously disclosed, in connection with funding that we have received under the CARES Act, we have issued warrants to acquire more than 5.9 million shares of Delta common stock since April 2020 to the U.S. Department of Treasury under an exemption from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. We expect to issue a warrant to acquire approximately 0.6 million additional shares of Delta common stock to the U.S. Department of Treasury under the same exemption in July 2020. For additional information regarding the warrants, see Note 2 of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

PAYROLL SUPPORT PROGRAM AGREEMENT

INTRODUCTION

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act or Act) directs the Department of the Treasury (Treasury) to provide Payroll Support (as defined herein) to passenger air carriers, cargo air carriers, and certain contractors that must be exclusively used for the continuation of payment of Employee Salaries, Wages, and Benefits (as defined herein). The Act permits Treasury to provide Payroll Support in such form, and on such terms and conditions, as the Secretary of the Treasury determines appropriate, and requires certain assurances from the Recipient (as defined herein).

This Payroll Support Program Agreement, including the application and all supporting documents submitted by the Recipient and the Payroll Support Certification attached hereto (collectively, Agreement), memorializes the binding terms and conditions applicable to the Recipient.

DEFINITIONS

As used in this Agreement, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings, unless the context clearly requires otherwise. In addition, this Agreement shall be construed in a manner consistent with any public guidance Treasury may from time to time issue regarding the implementation of Division A, Title IV, Subtitle B of the CARES Act.

Act or CARES Act means the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (Pub. L. No. 116-136).

Additional Payroll Support Payment means any disbursement of Payroll Support occurring after the first disbursement of Payroll Support under this Agreement.

For purposes of this definition, “control” of a Person shall mean having the power, directly or indirectly, to direct or cause the direction of the management and policies of such Person, whether by ownership of voting equity, by contract, or otherwise.

Benefits means, without duplication of any amounts counted as Salary or Wages, pension expenses in respect of Employees, all expenses for accident, sickness, hospital, and death benefits to Employees, and the cost of insurance to provide such benefits; any Severance Pay or Other Benefits payable to Employees pursuant to a bona fide voluntary early retirement program or voluntary furlough; and any other similar expenses paid by the Recipient for the benefit of Employees, including any other fringe benefit expense described in lines 10 and 11 of Financial Reporting Schedule P-6, Form 41, as published by the Department of Transportation, but excluding any Federal, state, or local payroll taxes paid by the Recipient.

Corporate Officer means, with respect to the Recipient, its president; any vice president in charge of a principal business unit, division, or function (such as sales, administration or finance); any other officer who performs a policy-making function; or any other person who

2

#10384655v1 

performs similar policy making functions for the Recipient. Executive officers of subsidiaries or parents of the Recipient may be deemed Corporate Officers of the Recipient if they perform such policy-making functions for the Recipient.

Employee means an individual who is employed by the Recipient and whose principal place of employment is in the United States (including its territories and possessions), including salaried, hourly, full-time, part-time, temporary, and leased employees, but excluding any individual who is a Corporate Officer or independent contractor.

Involuntary Termination or Furlough means the Recipient terminating the employment of one or more Employees or requiring one or more Employees to take a temporary suspension or unpaid leave for any reason, including a shut-down or slow-down of business; provided, however, that an Involuntary Termination or Furlough does not include a Permitted Termination or Furlough.

Maximum Awardable Amount means the amount determined by the Secretary with respect to the Recipient pursuant to section 4113(a)(1), (2), or (3) (as applicable) of the CARES Act.

Payroll Support means funds disbursed by the Secretary to the Recipient under this Agreement, including the first disbursement of Payroll Support and any Additional Payroll Support Payment.

Permitted Termination or Furlough means, with respect to an Employee, (1) a voluntary furlough, voluntary leave of absence, voluntary resignation, or voluntary retirement, (2) termination of employment resulting from such Employee’s death or disability, or (3) the Recipient terminating the employment of such Employee for cause or placing such Employee on a temporary suspension or unpaid leave of absence for disciplinary reasons, in either case, as reasonably determined by the Recipient acting in good faith.

Person means any natural person, corporation, limited liability company, partnership, joint venture, trust, business association, governmental entity, or other entity.

Recipient means, collectively, the Signatory Entity; its Affiliates that are air carriers as defined in 49 U.S.C. § 40102; and their respective heirs, executors, administrators, successors, and assigns.

Secretary means the Secretary of the Treasury.

Severance Pay or Other Benefits means any severance payment or other similar benefits, including cash payments, health care benefits, perquisites, the enhancement or acceleration of the payment or vesting of any payment or benefit or any other in-kind benefit payable (whether in lump sum or over time, including after March 24, 2022) by the Recipient to a Corporate Officer or Employee in connection with any termination of such Corporate Officer’s or Employee’s employment (including, without limitation, resignation, severance, retirement, or constructive

3

#10384655v1

This right also includes timely and reasonable access to the Recipient’s and its Affiliates’ personnel for the purpose of interview and discussion related to such documents. This right of access shall continue as long as records are required to be retained.

Recordkeeping and Internal Controls

17.If Treasury notifies the Recipient that the first disbursement of Payroll Support to the Recipient under this Agreement is the Maximum Awardable Amount (subject to any pro rata

7

#10384655v1 

reductions and as determined by the Secretary as of the date of such disbursement), the Recipient shall maintain the Payroll Support funds in a separate account over which Treasury shall have a perfected security interest to continue the payment of Wages, Salary, and Benefits to the Employees. For the avoidance of doubt, regardless whether the first disbursement of Payroll Support to the Recipient under this Agreement is the Maximum Awardable Amount, if the Recipient is a debtor as defined under 11 U.S.C. § 101(13), the Payroll Support funds, any claim or account receivable arising under this Agreement, and any segregated account holding funds received under this Agreement shall not constitute or become property of the estate under 11 U.S.C. § 541.

18.The Recipient shall expend and account for Payroll Support funds in a manner sufficient to:

a.Permit the preparation of accurate, current, and complete quarterly reports as required under this Agreement.

19.The Recipient shall establish and maintain effective internal controls over the Payroll Support; comply with all requirements related to the Payroll Support established under applicable Federal statutes and regulations; monitor compliance with Federal statutes, regulations, and the terms and conditions of this Agreement; and take prompt corrective actions in accordance with audit recommendations. The Recipient shall promptly remedy any identified instances of noncompliance with this Agreement.

20.The Recipient and Affiliates shall retain all records pertinent to the receipt of Payroll Support and compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including by suspending any automatic deletion functions for electronic records, including e-mails) for a period of three years following the period of performance. Such records shall include all information necessary to substantiate factual representations made in the Recipient’s application for Payroll Support, including ledgers and sub-ledgers, and the Recipient’s and Affiliates’ compliance with this Agreement. While electronic storage of records (backed up as appropriate) is preferable, the Recipient and Affiliates may store records in hardcopy (paper) format. The term “records” includes all relevant financial and accounting records and all supporting documentation for the information reported on the Recipient’s quarterly reports.

21.If any litigation, claim, investigation, or audit relating to the Payroll Support is started before the expiration of the three-year period, the Recipient and Affiliates shall retain all records described in paragraph 20 until all such litigation, claims, investigations, or audit findings have been completely resolved and final judgment entered or final action taken.

Remedies

22.If Treasury believes that an instance of noncompliance by the Recipient or an Affiliate with (a) this Agreement, (b) sections 4114 or 4116 of the CARES Act, or (c) the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 as it applies to the receipt of Payroll Support has occurred, Treasury may notify

8

#10384655v1 

the Recipient in writing of its proposed determination of noncompliance, provide an explanation of the nature of the noncompliance, and specify a proposed remedy. Upon receipt of such notice, the Recipient shall, within seven days, accept Treasury’s proposed remedy, propose an alternative remedy, or provide information and documentation contesting Treasury’s proposed determination. Treasury shall consider any such submission by the Recipient and make a final written determination, which will state Treasury’s findings regarding noncompliance and the remedy to be imposed.

23.If Treasury makes a final determination under paragraph 22 that an instance of noncompliance has occurred, Treasury may, in its sole discretion, withhold any Additional Payroll Support Payments; require the repayment of the amount of any previously disbursed Payroll Support, with appropriate interest; require additional reporting or monitoring; initiate suspension or debarment proceedings as authorized under 2 CFR Part 180; terminate this Agreement; or take any such other action as Treasury, in its sole discretion, deems appropriate.

24.Treasury may make a final determination regarding noncompliance without regard to paragraph 22 if Treasury determines, in its sole discretion, that such determination is necessary to protect a material interest of the Federal Government. In such event, Treasury shall notify the Recipient of the remedy that Treasury, in its sole discretion, shall impose, after which the Recipient may contest Treasury’s final determination or propose an alternative remedy in writing to Treasury. Following the receipt of such a submission by the Recipient, Treasury may, in its sole discretion, maintain or alter its final determination.

25.Any final determination of noncompliance and any final determination to take any remedial action described herein shall not be subject to further review. To the extent permitted by law, the Recipient waives any right to judicial review of any such determinations and further agrees not to assert in any court any claim arising from or relating to any such determination or remedial action.

26.Instead of, or in addition to, the remedies listed above, Treasury may refer any noncompliance or any allegations of fraud, waste, or abuse to the Treasury Inspector General.

27.Treasury, in its sole discretion, may grant any request by the Recipient for termination of this Agreement, which such request shall be in writing and shall include the reasons for such termination, the proposed effective date of the termination, and the amount of any unused Payroll Support funds the Recipient requests to return to Treasury. Treasury may, in its sole discretion, determine the extent to which the requirements under this Agreement may cease to apply following any such termination.

28.If Treasury determines that any remaining portion of the Payroll Support will not accomplish the purpose of this Agreement, Treasury may terminate this Agreement in its entirety to the extent permitted by law.

9

#10384655v1 

Debts

29.Any Payroll Support in excess of the amount which Treasury determines, at any time, the Recipient is authorized to receive or retain under the terms of this Agreement constitutes a debt to the Federal Government.

30.Any debts determined to be owed by the Recipient to the Federal Government shall be paid promptly by the Recipient. A debt is delinquent if it has not been paid by the date specified in Treasury’s initial written demand for payment, unless other satisfactory arrangements have been made. Interest, penalties, and administrative charges shall be charged on delinquent debts in accordance with 31 U.S.C. § 3717, 31 CFR 901.9, and paragraphs 31 and 32. Treasury will refer any debt that is more than 180 days delinquent to Treasury’s Bureau of the Fiscal Service for debt collection services.

31.Penalties on any debts shall accrue at a rate of not more than 6 percent per year or such other higher rate as authorized by law.

32.Administrative charges relating to the costs of processing and handling a delinquent debt shall be determined by Treasury.

33.The Recipient shall not use funds from other federally sponsored programs to pay a debt to the government arising under this Agreement.

Protections for Whistleblowers

34.In addition to other applicable whistleblower protections, in accordance with 41 U.S.C. §4712, the Recipient shall not discharge, demote, or otherwise discriminate against an Employee as a reprisal for disclosing information to a Person listed below that the Employee reasonably believes is evidence of gross mismanagement of a Federal contract or grant, a gross waste of Federal funds, an abuse of authority relating to a Federal contract or grant, a substantial and specific danger to public health or safety, or a violation of law, rule, or regulation related to a Federal contract (including the competition for or negotiation of a contract) or grant:

Whenever the words “include,” “includes” or “including” are used in this Agreement, they shall be deemed followed by the words “without limitation.” No rule of construction against the draftsperson shall be applied in connection with the interpretation or enforcement of this Agreement, as this Agreement is the product of negotiation between sophisticated parties advised by counsel. All references to “$” or “dollars” mean the lawful currency of the United States of America. Except as expressly stated in this Agreement, all references to any statute, rule or regulation are to the statute, rule or regulation as amended, modified, supplemented or replaced from time to time (and, in the case of statutes, include any rules and regulations promulgated under the statute) and to any section of any statute, rule or regulation include any successor to the section.

(f) The Warrants and Warrant Shares. Each Warrant has been duly authorized and, when executed and delivered as contemplated hereby, will constitute a valid and legally binding obligation of the Company enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership, moratorium or other Laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and by general principles of equity. The Warrant Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance upon exercise of the Warrants and when so issued in accordance with the terms of the Warrants will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable, subject, if applicable, to the approvals of its stockholders set forth on Schedule 3.

(g) Authorization, Enforceability.

The Company has taken all actions necessary, and will in the future take any necessary action, to render any stockholders’ rights plan of the Company inapplicable to this Agreement and the Warrants and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, including the exercise of the Warrants by Treasury in accordance with its terms.

(i) Reports.

(i) Since December 31, 2017, the Company and each Subsidiary has timely filed all reports, registrations, documents, filings, statements and submissions, together with any amendments thereto, that it was required to file with any Governmental Authority (the foregoing, collectively, the “Company Reports”) and has paid all fees and assessments due and payable in connection therewith, except, in each case, as would not, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. As of their respective dates of filing, the Company Reports complied in all material respects with all statutes and applicable rules and regulations of the applicable Governmental Authority. In the case of each such Company Report filed with or furnished to the SEC, such Company Report (A) did not, as of its date or if amended prior to the date hereof, as of the date of such amendment, contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and (B) complied as to form in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. With respect to all other Company Reports, the Company Reports were complete and accurate in all material respects as of their respective dates.

#10384659v1 

(ii) The Company (A) has implemented and maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act) to ensure that material information relating to the Company, including its Subsidiaries, is made known to the chief executive officer and the chief financial officer of the Company by others within those entities, and (B) has disclosed, based on its most recent evaluation prior to the date hereof, to the Company’s outside auditors and the audit committee of the Board of Directors (x) any significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design or operation of internal controls over financial reporting (as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Exchange Act) that are reasonably likely to adversely affect the Company’s ability to record, process, summarize and report financial information and (y) any fraud, whether or not material, that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

(j) Offering of Securities. Neither the Company nor any person acting on its behalf has taken any action (including any offering of any securities of the Company under circumstances which would require the integration of such offering with the offering of any of the Warrants under the Securities Act, and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) promulgated thereunder), which might subject the offering, issuance or sale of any of the Warrants to Treasury pursuant to this Agreement to the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

(k) Brokers and Finders. No broker, finder or investment banker is entitled to any financial advisory, brokerage, finder’s or other fee or commission in connection with this Agreement or the Warrants or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby based upon arrangements made by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary for which Treasury could have any liability.

Article III

Covenants

3.1 Commercially Reasonable Efforts.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the parties will use its commercially reasonable efforts in good faith to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, all things necessary, proper or desirable, or advisable under applicable laws, to enable consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cooperate with the other party to that end.

(b) If the Company is required to obtain any stockholder approvals set forth on Schedule 3, then the Company shall comply with this Section 3.1(b) and Section 3.1(c). The Company shall call a special meeting of its stockholders, as promptly as practicable following the Initial Closing, to vote on proposals (collectively, the “Stockholder Proposals”) to (i) approve the exercise of the Warrants for Common Stock for purposes of the rules of the national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed and/or (ii) amend the Company’s Organizational Documents to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to at least such number as shall be sufficient to permit the full exercise of the Warrants for Common Stock and comply with the other provisions of this Section 3.1(b) and Section 3.1(c). The Board

7

#10384659v1 

of Directors shall recommend to the Company’s stockholders that such stockholders vote in favor of the Stockholder Proposals. In connection with such meeting, the Company shall prepare (and Treasury will reasonably cooperate with the Company to prepare) and file with the SEC as promptly as practicable (but in no event more than ten Business Days after the Initial Closing) a preliminary proxy statement, shall use its reasonable best efforts to respond to any comments of the SEC or its staff thereon and to cause a definitive proxy statement related to such stockholders’ meeting to be mailed to the Company’s stockholders not more than five Business Days after clearance thereof by the SEC, and shall use its reasonable best efforts to solicit proxies for such stockholder approval of the Stockholder Proposals. The Company shall notify Treasury promptly of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or its staff with respect to the proxy statement and of any request by the SEC or its staff for amendments or supplements to such proxy statement or for additional information and will supply Treasury with copies of all correspondence between the Company or any of its representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or its staff, on the other hand, with respect to such proxy statement. If at any time prior to such stockholders’ meeting there shall occur any event that is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the proxy statement, the Company shall as promptly as practicable prepare and mail to its stockholders such an amendment or supplement. Each of Treasury and the Company agrees promptly to correct any information provided by it or on its behalf for use in the proxy statement if and to the extent that such information shall have become false or misleading in any material respect, and the Company shall as promptly as practicable prepare and mail to its stockholders an amendment or supplement to correct such information to the extent required by applicable laws and regulations. The Company shall consult with Treasury prior to filing any proxy statement, or any amendment or supplement thereto, and provide Treasury with a reasonable opportunity to comment thereon. In the event that the approval of any of the Stockholder Proposals is not obtained at such special stockholders meeting, the Company shall include a proposal to approve (and the Board of Directors shall recommend approval of) each such proposal at a meeting of its stockholders no less than once in each subsequent six-month period beginning on September 30, 2020 until all such approvals are obtained or made.

(c) None of the information supplied by the Company or any of the Company Subsidiaries for inclusion in any proxy statement in connection with any such stockholders meeting of the Company will, at the date it is filed with the SEC, when first mailed to the Company’s stockholders and at the time of any stockholders meeting, and at the time of any amendment or supplement thereof, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary in order to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they are made, not misleading.

3.2 Expenses. The Company shall pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Treasury (including the reasonable fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Treasury) in connection with the preparation, negotiation, execution, delivery and administration of this Agreement and the Warrants, any other agreements or documents executed in connection herewith or therewith, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), and (ii) all out-of-pocket expenses incurred by Treasury (including the fees, charges and disbursements of any counsel for Treasury), in connection with the enforcement or protection of its rights in connection with this Agreement and the Warrants, any

8

#10384659v1 

other agreements or documents executed in connected herewith or therewith, or any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof or thereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated), including all such out-of-pocket expenses incurred during any workout, restructuring, negotiations or enforcement in respect of such Warrant Agreement, Warrant and other agreements or documents executed in connection herewith or therewith.

3.3 Sufficiency of Authorized Common Stock; Exchange Listing.

During the period from each Warrant Closing Date (or, if the approval of the Stockholder Proposals is required, the date of such approval) until the date on which no Warrants remain outstanding, the Company shall at all times have reserved for issuance, free of preemptive or similar rights, a sufficient number of authorized and unissued Warrant Shares to effectuate such exercise. Nothing in this Section 3.3 shall preclude the Company from satisfying its obligations in respect of the exercise of the Warrants by delivery of shares of Common Stock which are held in the treasury of the Company. As soon as reasonably practicable following each Warrant Closing Date, the Company shall, at its expense, cause the Warrant Shares to be listed on the same national securities exchange on which the Common Stock is listed, subject to official notice of issuance, and shall maintain such listing for so long as any Common Stock is listed on such exchange. The Company will use commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the listing of Common Stock on such national securities exchange so long as any Warrants or Warrant Shares remain outstanding. Neither the Company nor any of its Subsidiaries shall take any action which would be reasonably expected to result in the delisting or suspension of the Common Stock on such exchange. The foregoing shall not preclude the Company from undertaking any transaction set forth in Section 4.3 subject to compliance with that provision.

Article IV

Additional Agreements

4.1 Investment Purposes. Treasury acknowledges that the Warrants and the Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act or under any state securities laws. Treasury (a) is acquiring the Warrants pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act solely for investment without a view to sell and with no present intention to distribute them to any person in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable U.S. state securities laws; (b) will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Warrants or the Warrant Shares, except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption provisions of the Securities Act and any applicable U.S. state securities laws; and (c) has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters and in investments of this type that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares and of making an informed investment decision.

4.2 Legends.

(a) Treasury agrees that all certificates or other instruments representing the Warrants and the Warrant Shares will bear a legend substantially to the following effect:

“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED BY THIS INSTRUMENT HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, OR THE

9

#10384659v1 

SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE AND MAY NOT BE TRANSFERRED, SOLD OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF EXCEPT WHILE A REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATING THERETO IS IN EFFECT UNDER SUCH ACT AND APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS OR PURSUANT TO AN EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER SUCH ACT AND SUCH LAWS.”

(b) In the event that any Warrants or Warrant Shares (i) become registered under the Securities Act or (ii) are eligible to be transferred without restriction in accordance with Rule 144 or another exemption from registration under the Securities Act (other than Rule 144A), the Company shall issue new certificates or other instruments representing such Warrants or Warrant Shares, which shall not contain the legend in Section 4.2(a) above; provided that Treasury surrenders to the Company the previously issued certificates or other instruments.

4.3 Certain Transactions. The Company will not merge or consolidate with, or sell, transfer or lease all or substantially all of its property or assets to, any other party unless the successor, transferee or lessee party (or its ultimate parent entity), as the case may be (if not the Company), expressly assumes the due and punctual performance and observance of each and every covenant, agreement and condition of this Agreement and the Warrants to be performed and observed by the Company.

4.4 Transfer of Warrants and Warrant Shares. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, Treasury shall be permitted to transfer, sell, assign or otherwise dispose of (“Transfer”) all or a portion of the Warrants or Warrant Shares at any time, and the Company shall take all steps as may be reasonably requested by Treasury to facilitate the Transfer of the Warrants and the Warrant Shares.

4.5 Registration Rights.

(a) Registration.

(i) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company covenants and agrees that on or before the earlier of (A) 30 days after the date on which all Warrants that may be issued pursuant to this Agreement have been issued and (B) September 30, 2020 (the end of such period, the “Registration Commencement Date”), the Company shall prepare and file with the SEC a Shelf Registration Statement covering the maximum number of Registrable Securities (or otherwise designate an existing Shelf Registration Statement filed with the SEC to cover the Registrable Securities) that may be issued pursuant to this Agreement and any Warrants outstanding at that time, and, to the extent the Shelf Registration Statement has not theretofore been declared effective or is not automatically effective upon such filing, the Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause such Shelf Registration Statement to be declared or become effective and to keep such Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective and in compliance with the Securities Act and usable for resale of such Registrable Securities for a period from the date of its initial effectiveness until such time as there are no Registrable Securities remaining (including by refiling such Shelf Registration Statement (or a new Shelf Registration Statement) if the initial Shelf Registration Statement expires). So long as the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities

10

#10384659v1 

Act) at the time of filing of the Shelf Registration Statement with the SEC, such Shelf Registration Statement shall be designated by the Company as an automatic Shelf Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the date hereof the Company is not eligible to file a registration statement on Form S-3, then the Company shall not be obligated to file a Shelf Registration Statement unless and until it is so eligible and is requested to do so in writing by Treasury.

(ii) Any registration pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(i) shall be effected by means of a shelf registration on an appropriate form under Rule 415 under the Securities Act (a “Shelf Registration Statement”). If Treasury or any other Holder intends to distribute any Registrable Securities by means of an underwritten offering it shall promptly so advise the Company and the Company shall take all reasonable steps to facilitate such distribution, including the actions required pursuant to Section 4.5(c); provided that the Company shall not be required to facilitate an underwritten offering of Registrable Securities unless the total number of Warrant Shares and Warrants expected to be sold in such offering exceeds, or are exercisable for, at least 20% of the total number of Warrant Shares for which Warrants issued under this Agreement could be exercised (giving effect to the anti-dilution adjustments in Warrants); and provided, further that the Company shall not be required to facilitate more than two completed underwritten offerings within any 12-month period. The lead underwriters in any such distribution shall be selected by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities to be distributed.

(iii) The Company shall not be required to effect a registration (including a resale of Registrable Securities from an effective Shelf Registration Statement) or an underwritten offering pursuant to Section 4.5(a): (A) prior to the Registration Commencement Date; (B) with respect to securities that are not Registrable Securities; or (C) if the Company has notified Treasury and all other Holders that in the good faith judgment of the Board of Directors, it would be materially detrimental to the Company or its securityholders for such registration or underwritten offering to be effected at such time, in which event the Company shall have the right to defer such registration or offering for a period of not more than 45 days after receipt of the request of Treasury or any other Holder; provided that such right to delay a registration or underwritten offering shall be exercised by the Company (1) only if the Company has generally exercised (or is concurrently exercising) similar black-out rights against holders of similar securities that have registration rights and (2) not more than three times in any 12-month period and not more than 90 days in the aggregate in any 12-month period. The Company shall notify the Holders of the date of any anticipated termination of any such deferral period prior to such date.

(iv) If during any period when an effective Shelf Registration Statement is not available, the Company proposes to register any of its equity securities, other than a registration pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(i) or a Special Registration, and the registration form to be filed may be used for the registration or qualification for distribution of Registrable Securities, the Company will give prompt written notice to Treasury and all other Holders of its intention to effect such a registration (but in no event less than ten days prior to the anticipated filing date) and will include in such registration all

11

#10384659v1 

Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein within ten Business Days after the date of the Company’s notice (a “Piggyback Registration”). Any such person that has made such a written request may withdraw its Registrable Securities from such Piggyback Registration by giving written notice to the Company and the managing underwriter, if any, on or before the fifth Business Day prior to the planned effective date of such Piggyback Registration. The Company may terminate or withdraw any registration under this Section 4.5(a)(iv) prior to the effectiveness of such registration, whether or not Treasury or any other Holders have elected to include Registrable Securities in such registration.

(v) If the registration referred to in Section 4.5(a)(iv) is proposed to be underwritten, the Company will so advise Treasury and all other Holders as a part of the written notice given pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(iv). In such event, the right of Treasury and all other Holders to registration pursuant to Section 4.5(a) will be conditioned upon such persons’ participation in such underwriting and the inclusion of such person’s Registrable Securities in the underwriting if such securities are of the same class of securities as the securities to be offered in the underwritten offering, and each such person will (together with the Company and the other persons distributing their securities through such underwriting) enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the underwriter or underwriters selected for such underwriting by the Company; provided that Treasury (as opposed to other Holders) shall not be required to indemnify any person in connection with any registration. If any participating person disapproves of the terms of the underwriting, such person may elect to withdraw therefrom by written notice to the Company, the managing underwriters and Treasury (if Treasury is participating in the underwriting).

(vi) If either (x) the Company grants “piggyback” registration rights to one or more third parties to include their securities in an underwritten offering under the Shelf Registration Statement pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii) or (y) a Piggyback Registration under Section 4.5(a)(iv) relates to an underwritten offering on behalf of the Company, and in either case the managing underwriters advise the Company that in their reasonable opinion the number of securities requested to be included in such offering exceeds the number which can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of such offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), the Company will include in such offering only such number of securities that in the reasonable opinion of such managing underwriters can be sold without adversely affecting the marketability of the offering (including an adverse effect on the per share offering price), which securities will be so included in the following order of priority: (A) first, in the case of a Piggyback Registration under Section 4.5(a)(iv), the securities the Company proposes to sell, (B) then the Registrable Securities of Treasury and all other Holders who have requested inclusion of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii) or Section 4.5(a)(iv), as applicable, pro rata on the basis of the aggregate number of such securities or shares owned by each such person and (C) lastly, any other securities of the Company that have been requested to be so included, subject to the terms of this Agreement; provided, however, that if the Company has, prior to the date hereof, entered into an agreement with

12

#10384659v1 

respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the order of priority contemplated hereby then it shall apply the order of priority in such conflicting agreement to the extent that this Agreement would otherwise result in a breach under such agreement.

(b) Expenses of Registration. All Registration Expenses incurred in connection with any registration, qualification or compliance hereunder shall be borne by the Company. All Selling Expenses incurred in connection with any registrations hereunder shall be borne by the holders of the securities so registered pro rata on the basis of the aggregate offering or sale price of the securities so registered.

(c) Obligations of the Company. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts, for so long as there are Registrable Securities outstanding, to take such actions as are under its control to not become an ineligible issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) and to remain a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 under the Securities Act) if it has such status on the date hereof or becomes eligible for such status in the future. In addition, whenever required to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities or facilitate the distribution of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective Shelf Registration Statement, the Company shall, as expeditiously as reasonably practicable:

(i) Prepare and file with the SEC a prospectus supplement with respect to a proposed offering of Registrable Securities pursuant to an effective registration statement, subject to Section 4.5(d), keep such registration statement effective and keep such prospectus supplement current until the securities described therein are no longer Registrable Securities. The plan of distribution included in such registration statement shall include, among other things, an underwritten offering, ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers, block trades, privately negotiated transactions, the writing or settlement of options or other derivative transactions and any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law, and any combination of any such methods of sale.

(ii) Prepare and file with the SEC such amendments and supplements to the applicable registration statement and the prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with such registration statement as may be necessary to comply with the provisions of the Securities Act with respect to the disposition of all securities covered by such registration statement.

(iv) Use its reasonable best efforts to register and qualify the securities covered by such registration statement under such other securities or Blue Sky laws of such jurisdictions as shall be reasonably requested by the Holders or any managing underwriter(s), to keep such registration or qualification in effect for so long as such

13

#10384659v1 

registration statement remains in effect, and to take any other action which may be reasonably necessary to enable such seller to consummate the disposition in such jurisdictions of the securities owned by such Holder; provided that the Company shall not be required in connection therewith or as a condition thereto to qualify to do business or to file a general consent to service of process in any such states or jurisdictions.

(v) Notify each Holder of Registrable Securities at any time when a prospectus relating thereto is required to be delivered under the Securities Act of the happening of any event as a result of which the applicable prospectus, as then in effect, includes an untrue statement of a material fact or omits to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading in light of the circumstances then existing.

(vi) Give written notice to the Holders:

(A) when any registration statement filed pursuant to Section 4.5(a) or any amendment thereto has been filed with the SEC (except for any amendment effected by the filing of a document with the SEC pursuant to the Exchange Act) and when such registration statement or any post-effective amendment thereto has become effective;

(B) of any request by the SEC for amendments or supplements to any registration statement or the prospectus included therein or for additional information;

(C) of the issuance by the SEC of any stop order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement or the initiation of any proceedings for that purpose;

(D) of the receipt by the Company or its legal counsel of any notification with respect to the suspension of the qualification of the Common Stock for sale in any jurisdiction or the initiation or threatening of any proceeding for such purpose;

(E) of the happening of any event that requires the Company to make changes in any effective registration statement or the prospectus related to the registration statement in order to make the statements therein not misleading (which notice shall be accompanied by an instruction to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes have been made); and

(F) if at any time the representations and warranties of the Company contained in any underwriting agreement contemplated by Section 4.5(c)(x) cease to be true and correct.

(vii) Use its reasonable best efforts to prevent the issuance or obtain the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of any registration statement referred to in Section 4.5(c)(vi)(C) at the earliest practicable time.

14

#10384659v1 

(viii) Upon the occurrence of any event contemplated by Section 4.5(c)(v), 4.5(c)(vi)(E) or 4.5(d), promptly prepare a post-effective amendment to such registration statement or a supplement to the related prospectus or file any other required document so that, as thereafter delivered to the Holders and any underwriters, the prospectus will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. If the Company notifies the Holders in accordance with Section 4.5(c)(vi)(E) to suspend the use of the prospectus until the requisite changes to the prospectus have been made, then the Holders and any underwriters shall suspend use of such prospectus and use their reasonable best efforts to return to the Company all copies of such prospectus (at the Company’s expense) other than permanent file copies then in such Holders’ or underwriters’ possession. The total number of days that any such suspension may be in effect in any 12-month period shall not exceed 90 days. The Company shall notify the Holders of the date of any anticipated termination of any such suspension period prior to such date.

(ix) Use reasonable best efforts to procure the cooperation of the Company’s transfer agent in settling any offering or sale of Registrable Securities, including with respect to the transfer of physical stock certificates into book-entry form in accordance with any procedures reasonably requested by the Holders or any managing underwriter(s).

(x) If an underwritten offering is requested pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii), enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form, scope and substance and take all such other actions reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith or by the managing underwriter(s), if any, to expedite or facilitate the underwritten disposition of such Registrable Securities, and in connection therewith in any underwritten offering (including making members of management and executives of the Company available to participate in “road shows”, similar sales events and other marketing activities), (A) make such representations and warranties to the Holders that are selling stockholders and the managing underwriter(s), if any, with respect to the business of the Company and its subsidiaries, and the Shelf Registration Statement, prospectus and documents, if any, incorporated or deemed to be incorporated by reference therein, in each case, in customary form, substance and scope, and, if true, confirm the same if and when requested, (B) use its reasonable best efforts to furnish the underwriters with opinions and “10b-5” letters of counsel to the Company, addressed to the managing underwriter(s), if any, covering the matters customarily covered in such opinions and letters requested in underwritten offerings, (C) use its reasonable best efforts to obtain “cold comfort” letters from the independent certified public accountants of the Company (and, if necessary, any other independent certified public accountants of any business acquired by the Company for which financial statements and financial data are included in the Shelf Registration Statement) who have certified the financial statements included in such Shelf Registration Statement, addressed to each of the managing underwriter(s), if any, such letters to be in customary form and covering matters of the type customarily covered in “cold comfort” letters, (D) if an

15

#10384659v1 

underwriting agreement is entered into, the same shall contain indemnification provisions and procedures customary in underwritten offerings (provided that Treasury shall not be obligated to provide any indemnity), and (E) deliver such documents and certificates as may be reasonably requested by the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being sold in connection therewith, their counsel and the managing underwriter(s), if any, to evidence the continued validity of the representations and warranties made pursuant to clause (i) above and to evidence compliance with any customary conditions contained in the underwriting agreement or other agreement entered into by the Company.

(xi) Make available for inspection by a representative of Holders that are selling stockholders, the managing underwriter(s), if any, and any attorneys or accountants retained by such Holders or managing underwriter(s), at the offices where normally kept, during reasonable business hours, financial and other records, pertinent corporate documents and properties of the Company, and cause the officers, directors and employees of the Company to supply all information in each case reasonably requested (and of the type customarily provided in connection with due diligence conducted in connection with a registered public offering of securities) by any such representative, managing underwriter(s), attorney or accountant in connection with such Shelf Registration Statement.

(xii) Use reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on each national securities exchange on which similar securities issued by the Company are then listed or, if no similar securities issued by the Company are then listed on any national securities exchange, use its reasonable best efforts to cause all such Registrable Securities to be listed on such securities exchange as Treasury may designate.

(xiii) If requested by Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered and/or sold in connection therewith, or the managing underwriter(s), if any, promptly include in a prospectus supplement or amendment such information as the Holders of a majority of the Registrable Securities being registered and/or sold in connection therewith or managing underwriter(s), if any, may reasonably request in order to permit the intended method of distribution of such securities and make all required filings of such prospectus supplement or such amendment as soon as practicable after the Company has received such request.

(xiv) Timely provide to its security holders earning statements satisfying the provisions of Section 11(a) of the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder.

(d) Suspension of Sales. Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement contains or may contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omits or may omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading or that circumstances exist that make inadvisable use of such registration statement, prospectus or prospectus supplement, Treasury and each Holder of Registrable Securities shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until Treasury and/or Holder has received copies of a supplemented or amended prospectus or prospectus supplement, or until Treasury and/or such Holder is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus supplement

16

#10384659v1 

may be resumed, and, if so directed by the Company, Treasury and/or such Holder shall deliver to the Company (at the Company’s expense) all copies, other than permanent file copies then in Treasury and/or such Holder’s possession, of the prospectus and, if applicable, prospectus supplement covering such Registrable Securities current at the time of receipt of such notice. The total number of days that any such suspension may be in effect in any 12-month period shall not exceed 90 days. The Company shall notify Treasury prior to the anticipated termination of any such suspension period of the date of such anticipated termination

(e) Termination of Registration Rights. A Holder’s registration rights as to any securities held by such Holder shall not be available unless such securities are Registrable Securities.

(f) Furnishing Information.

(i) Neither Treasury nor any Holder shall use any free writing prospectus (as defined in Rule 405) in connection with the sale of Registrable Securities without the prior written consent of the Company.

(ii) It shall be a condition precedent to the obligations of the Company to take any action pursuant to Section 4.5(c) that Treasury and/or the selling Holders and the underwriters, if any, shall furnish to the Company such information regarding themselves, the Registrable Securities held by them and the intended method of disposition of such securities as shall be required to effect the registered offering of their Registrable Securities.

(g) Indemnification.

(i) The Company agrees to indemnify each Holder and, if a Holder is a person other than an individual, such Holder’s officers, directors, employees, agents, representatives and Affiliates, and each Person, if any, that controls a Holder within the meaning of the Securities Act (each, an “Indemnitee”), against any and all losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees, expenses and disbursements of attorneys and other professionals incurred in connection with investigating, defending, settling, compromising or paying any such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs and expenses), joint or several, arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in any registration statement, including any preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any amendments or supplements thereto or any documents incorporated therein by reference or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405) prepared by the Company or authorized by it in writing for use by such Holder (or any amendment or supplement thereto); or any omission to state therein a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, that the Company shall not be liable to such Indemnitee in any such case to the extent that any such loss, claim, damage, liability (or action or proceeding in respect thereof) or expense arises out of or is based upon (A) an untrue statement or omission made in such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained

17

#10384659v1 

therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto or contained in any free writing prospectus (as such term is defined in Rule 405) prepared by the Company or authorized by it in writing for use by such Holder (or any amendment or supplement thereto), in reliance upon and in conformity with information regarding such Indemnitee or its plan of distribution or ownership interests which was furnished in writing to the Company by such Indemnitee for use in connection with such registration statement, including any such preliminary prospectus or final prospectus contained therein or any such amendments or supplements thereto, or (B) offers or sales effected by or on behalf of such Indemnitee “by means of” (as defined in Rule 159A) a “free writing prospectus” (as defined in Rule 405) that was not authorized in writing by the Company.

(ii) If the indemnification provided for in Section 4.5(g)(i) is unavailable to an Indemnitee with respect to any losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses referred to therein or is insufficient to hold the Indemnitee harmless as contemplated therein, then the Company, in lieu of indemnifying such Indemnitee, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such Indemnitee as a result of such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnitee, on the one hand, and the Company, on the other hand, in connection with the statements or omissions which resulted in such losses, claims, damages, actions, liabilities, costs or expenses as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the Company, on the one hand, and of the Indemnitee, on the other hand, shall be determined by reference to, among other factors, whether the untrue statement of a material fact or omission to state a material fact relates to information supplied by the Company or by the Indemnitee and the parties’ relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such statement or omission; the Company and each Holder agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.5(g)(ii) were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation that does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in Section 4.5(g)(i). No Indemnitee guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from the Company if the Company was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(h) Assignment of Registration Rights. The rights of Treasury to registration of Registrable Securities pursuant to Section 4.5(a) may be assigned by Treasury to a transferee or assignee of Registrable Securities in connection with a transfer of a total number of Warrant Shares and/or Warrants exercisable for at least 20% of the total number of Warrant Shares for which Warrants issued and to be issued under this Agreement could be exercised (giving effect to the anti-dilution adjustments in Warrants); provided, however, the transferor shall, within ten days after such transfer, furnish to the Company written notice of the name and address of such transferee or assignee and the number and type of Registrable Securities that are being assigned.

(i) Clear Market. With respect to any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities by Treasury or other Holders pursuant to this Section 4.5, the Company agrees not to effect (other than pursuant to such registration or pursuant to a Special Registration) any public sale or distribution, or to file any Shelf Registration Statement (other than such registration or a Special

18

#10384659v1 

Registration) covering, in the case of an underwritten offering of Common Stock or Warrants, any of its equity securities, or, in each case, any securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such securities, during the period not to exceed 30 days following the effective date of such offering. The Company also agrees to cause such of its directors and senior executive officers to execute and deliver customary lock-up agreements in such form and for such time period up to 30 days as may be requested by the managing underwriter. “Special Registration” means the registration of (A) equity securities and/or options or other rights in respect thereof solely registered on Form S-4 or Form S-8 (or successor form) or (B) shares of equity securities and/or options or other rights in respect thereof to be offered to directors, members of management, employees, consultants, customers, lenders or vendors of the Company or Company Subsidiaries or in connection with dividend reinvestment plans.

(j) Rule 144; Rule 144A. With a view to making available to Treasury and Holders the benefits of certain rules and regulations of the SEC which may permit the sale of the Registrable Securities to the public without registration, the Company agrees to use its reasonable best efforts to:

(i) make and keep adequate public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144(c)(1) or any similar or analogous rule promulgated under the Securities Act, at all times after the date hereof;

(ii) (A) file with the SEC, in a timely manner, all reports and other documents required of the Company under the Exchange Act, and (B) if at any time the Company is not required to file such reports, make available, upon the request of any Holder, such information necessary to permit sales pursuant to Rule 144A (including the information required by Rule 144A(d)(4) under the Securities Act);

(iii) so long as Treasury or a Holder owns any Registrable Securities, furnish to Treasury or such Holder forthwith upon request: a written statement by the Company as to its compliance with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, and of the Exchange Act; a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of the Company; and such other reports and documents as Treasury or Holder may reasonably request in availing itself of any rule or regulation of the SEC allowing it to sell any such securities to the public without registration; provided, however, that the availability of the foregoing reports on the EDGAR filing system of the SEC will be deemed to satisfy the foregoing delivery requirements; and

(iv) take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell Registrable Securities without registration under the Securities Act.

(k) As used in this Section 4.5, the following terms shall have the following respective meanings:

(i) “Holder” means Treasury and any other holder of Registrable Securities to whom the registration rights conferred by this Agreement have been transferred in compliance with Section 4.5(h) hereof.

19

#10384659v1 

(ii) “Register,” “registered,” and “registration” shall refer to a registration effected by preparing and (A) filing a registration statement in compliance with the Securities Act and applicable rules and regulations thereunder, and the declaration or ordering of effectiveness of such registration statement or (B) filing a prospectus and/or prospectus supplement in respect of an appropriate effective registration statement on Form S-3.

(iii) “Registrable Securities” means (A) the Warrants (subject to Section 4.5(p)) and (B) any equity securities issued or issuable directly or indirectly with respect to the securities referred to in the foregoing clause (A) by way of conversion, exercise or exchange thereof, including the Warrant Shares, or share dividend or share split or in connection with a combination of shares, recapitalization, reclassification, merger, amalgamation, arrangement, consolidation or other reorganization, provided that, once issued, such securities will not be Registrable Securities when (1) they are sold pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act, (2) except as provided below in Section 4.5(o), they may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without limitation thereunder on volume or manner of sale, (3) they shall have ceased to be outstanding or (4) they have been sold in a private transaction in which the transferor’s rights under this Agreement are not assigned to the transferee of the securities. No Registrable Securities may be registered under more than one registration statement at any one time.

(iv) “Registration Expenses” mean all expenses incurred by the Company in effecting any registration pursuant to this Agreement (whether or not any registration or prospectus becomes effective or final) or otherwise complying with its obligations under this Section 4.5, including all registration, filing and listing fees, printing expenses, fees and disbursements of counsel for the Company, blue sky fees and expenses, expenses incurred in connection with any “road show”, the reasonable fees and disbursements of Treasury’s counsel (if Treasury is participating in the registered offering), and expenses of the Company’s independent accountants in connection with any regular or special reviews or audits incident to or required by any such registration, but shall not include Selling Expenses.

(v) “Rule 144”, “Rule 144A”, “Rule 159A”, “Rule 405” and “Rule 415” mean, in each case, such rule promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor provision), as the same shall be amended from time to time.

(vi) “Selling Expenses” mean all discounts, selling commissions and stock transfer taxes applicable to the sale of Registrable Securities and fees and disbursements of counsel for any Holder (other than the fees and disbursements of Treasury’s counsel included in Registration Expenses).

(l) At any time, any holder of Securities (including any Holder) may elect to forfeit its rights set forth in this Section 4.5 from that date forward; provided, that a Holder forfeiting such rights shall nonetheless be entitled to participate under Section 4.5(a)(iv) – (vi) in any Pending Underwritten Offering to the same extent that such Holder would have been entitled to if the holder had not withdrawn; and provided, further, that no such forfeiture shall terminate a Holder’s rights or obligations under Section 4.5(f) with respect to any prior registration or

20

#10384659v1 

Pending Underwritten Offering. “Pending Underwritten Offering” means, with respect to any Holder forfeiting its rights pursuant to this Section 4.5(l), any underwritten offering of Registrable Securities in which such Holder has advised the Company of its intent to register its Registrable Securities either pursuant to Section 4.5(a)(ii) or 4.5(a)(iv) prior to the date of such Holder’s forfeiture.

(m) Specific Performance. The parties hereto acknowledge that there would be no adequate remedy at law if the Company fails to perform any of its obligations under this Section 4.5 and that Treasury and the Holders from time to time may be irreparably harmed by any such failure, and accordingly agree that Treasury and such Holders, in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled at law or in equity, to the fullest extent permitted and enforceable under applicable law shall be entitled to compel specific performance of the obligations of the Company under this Section 4.5 in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Section 4.5.

(n) No Inconsistent Agreements. The Company shall not, on or after the date hereof, enter into any agreement with respect to its securities that may impair the rights granted to Treasury and the Holders under this Section 4.5 or that otherwise conflicts with the provisions hereof in any manner that may impair the rights granted to Treasury and the Holders under this Section 4.5. In the event the Company has, prior to the date hereof, entered into any agreement with respect to its securities that is inconsistent with the rights granted to Treasury and the Holders under this Section 4.5 (including agreements that are inconsistent with the order of priority contemplated by Section 4.5(a)(vi)) or that may otherwise conflict with the provisions hereof, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to amend such agreements to ensure they are consistent with the provisions of this Section 4.5. Any transaction entered into by the Company that would reasonably be expected to require the inclusion in a Shelf Registration Statement or any Company Report filed with the SEC of any separate financial statements pursuant to Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X or pro forma financial statements pursuant to Article 11 of Regulation S-X shall include provisions requiring the Company’s counterparty to provide any information necessary to allow the Company to comply with its obligation hereunder.

(o) Certain Offerings by Treasury. In the case of any securities held by Treasury that cease to be Registrable Securities solely by reason of clause (2) in the definition of “Registrable Securities,” the provisions of Sections 4.5(a)(ii), clauses (iv), (ix) and (x)-(xii) of Section 4.5(c), Section 4.5(g) and Section 4.5(i) shall continue to apply until such securities otherwise cease to be Registrable Securities. In any such case, an “underwritten” offering or other disposition shall include any distribution of such securities on behalf of Treasury by one or more broker-dealers, an “underwriting agreement” shall include any purchase agreement entered into by such broker-dealers, and any “registration statement” or “prospectus” shall include any offering document approved by the Company and used in connection with such distribution.

(p) Registered Sales of the Warrants. The Holders agree to sell the Warrants or any portion thereof under the Shelf Registration Statement only beginning 30 days after notifying the Company of any such sale, during which 30-day period Treasury and all Holders of the Warrants shall take reasonable steps to agree to revisions to the Warrants, at the expense of the Company, to permit a public distribution of the Warrants, including entering into a revised warrant

21

#10384659v1

Each Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment shall be terminated immediately and without further action at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, on the Delayed Draw Commitment Termination Date. The Delayed Draw Term Loans (if and when funded) shall have the same terms and conditions as the Closing Date Term Loans for all purposes (it being understood, for the avoidance of doubt, that interest shall accrue on the Delayed Draw Term Loans from the date of funding thereof).

(iii) Each Borrowing of a Delayed Draw Term Loans shall be made from the applicable Lenders pro rata in accordance with their respective Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments; provided, however, that the failure of any Lender to make any Delayed Draw Term Loan shall not in itself relieve the other Lenders of their obligations to lend.

(b) Type of Borrowing. Each Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Term Loans or Eurodollar Term Loans as the Borrower may request in accordance herewith. Each Lender at its option may make any Eurodollar Term Loan by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Term Loan; provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Term Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(c) Amount of Borrowing. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Eurodollar Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is in an integral multiple of $1,000,000 and not less than $5,000,000. At the time that each ABR Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. Borrowings of more than one (1) Type may be outstanding at the same time.

(d) Limitation on Interest Period.

Each such telephonic borrowing request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01(a):

25

#1038422810384414v3315

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing (which shall comply with Section 2.01(c));

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Term Loan to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

SECTION 2.04. Funding of Borrowings.

(a)  Each Lender shall make each applicable Term Loan to be made by it hereunder on the Closing Date and any applicable Delayed Draw Funding Date by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 12:00 noon, New York City time, or such earlier time as may be reasonably practicable, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the applicable conditions precedent specified herein, the Administrative Agent will make the applicable Term Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraph (a) of this Section 2.04 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith upon written demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Term Loan included in such Borrowing.

SECTION 2.05. Interest Elections.

(a) The Borrower may elect from time to time to (i) convert ABR Term Loans to Eurodollar Term Loans, (ii) convert Eurodollar Term Loans to ABR Term Loans, provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Term Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect

Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and upon the request of the Required Lenders, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

SECTION 2.06. Limitation on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Term Loans and

27

#1038422810384414v3315

all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Term Loans comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than ten (10) Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

SECTION 2.07. Interest on Term Loans.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each ABR Term Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days or, when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, a year with three hundred sixty-five (365) days or three hundred sixty-six (366) days in a leap year) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each Eurodollar Term Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days) at a rate per annum equal, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Accrued interest on all Term Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto, on the Termination Date with respect to such Term Loans and thereafter on written demand and (with respect to Eurodollar Term Loans) upon any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount repaid or prepaid); provided that in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Term Loan to an ABR Term Loan, accrued interest on such Term Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

SECTION 2.08. Default Interest. If the Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Term Loan or in the payment of any fee becoming due hereunder, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall on written demand of the Administrative Agent (which written demand shall be given at the request of the Required Lenders) from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on all overdue amounts up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days or, when the Alternate Base Rate is applicable and is based on the Prime Rate, a year of three hundred sixty-five (365) days or three hundred sixty-six (366) days in a leap year) equal to (a) with respect to the principal amount of any Term Loan, the rate then applicable for such Borrowings plus 2.0%, and (b) with respect to interest and fees, the rate applicable for ABR Term Loans plus 2.0%.

SECTION 2.09. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) In the event, and on each occasion, that on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, facsimile or telegraphic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders and, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Term Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Term Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Term Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Term Loans.

28

#1038422810384414v3315

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in this Section 2.09 have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in this Section 2.09 have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero, such rate shall be deemed to be zero for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.08, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any Lender so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.09(b), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Term Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Term Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Term Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Term Loans.

SECTION 2.10. Repayment of Term Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan then outstanding on the Termination Date.

The Borrower shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to request information regarding the accounts referred to in the preceding sentence.

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Term Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a

29

#1038422810384414v3315

promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in a form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Term Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.02) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.11. Optional Termination or Reduction of Delayed Draw Commitments. Upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the unused Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments; provided that each such notice shall be revocable to the extent such termination or reduction would have resulted from a refinancing of the Obligations, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. Each such reduction of the unused Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall be in the principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Any reduction of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied on a pro rata basis.

SECTION 2.12. Mandatory Prepayment of Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount necessary to comply with ‎Section 6.03, in each case as directed by the Borrower.

(b) All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

SECTION 2.13. Optional Prepayment of Term Loans.

(b) All prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of the Term Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Term Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which made, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Term Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein; provided that the Borrower may revoke any

30

#1038422810384414v3315

notice of prepayment under this Section 2.13 if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of any or all of the Obligations hereunder, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the principal amount of the Term Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs.

(a)  If any Change in Law shall:

(i) subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement subject to Section 2.14(c)); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Term Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of converting any ABR Term Loan to a Eurodollar Term Loan or making, maintaining or continuing any Eurodollar Term Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Term Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Term Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that to the extent duplicative of the provisions in Section 2.16, this Section 2.14(b) shall not apply to Taxes.

(c) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Term Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Term Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the funding of the Eurodollar Term Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Term Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which

31

#1038422810384414v3315

interest is payable on such Term Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and which notice shall specify the Statutory Reserve Rate, if any, applicable to such Lender) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

(d) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; providedfurther that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

(f) Any determination by a Lender of amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.14 to such Lender due to any Change in Law, pursuant to the proviso in the definition thereof shall be made in good faith in a manner generally consistent with such Lender’s standard practice.

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Term Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) the assignment of any Eurodollar Term Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or Section 10.08(d), then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Term Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest for such Term Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Term Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes.

(a)  Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to a Recipient, as determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), such Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)  the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition (and without duplication of any payments with respect to Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(a)), the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of such Recipient on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. After a Recipient learns of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, such party will act in good faith to notify the Borrower promptly of its obligations thereunder. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.02(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

33

#1038422810384414v3315

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower as will (i) enable the Borrower to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements, and (ii) permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g) (1) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.16(f),

(i)  any Lender that is a U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (and the Borrower at its request) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(ii)  any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) (and the Borrower at its request) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1)  in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(2)  executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

(3)  in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the Form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that (i) such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, and (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (ii) the interest payments in question are not effectively connected with the United States trade or business conducted by such Lender (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(4)  to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating bank granting a typical participation), an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or C-3 (as applicable), Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating bank) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax

34

#1038422810384414v3315

Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such beneficial owner; or

(5)  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 to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

If the Administrative Agent is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.

The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(2) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not 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 clause (2), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this ‎Section 2.16, it shall pay over an amount equal to such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund (including Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) if, and then only to the extent, the payment of such amount would place the Administrative Agent or Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the

35

#1038422810384414v3315

Administrative Agent or Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, or fees or of amounts payable under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York, pursuant to wire instructions to be provided by the Administrative Agent, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 10.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in the applicable currency.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Arrangers and the Lenders and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Term Loans, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards payment of principal of the Term Loans then due hereunder ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(a), 8.04 or 10.04(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(e) Pro Rata Treatment.

36

#1038422810384414v3315

(i)  Each payment by the Borrower of interest in respect of the Term Loans shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders.

(ii) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Lenders (except that any prepayment of Term Loans with the proceeds of Refinancing Debt shall be applied solely to each applicable tranche of the Indebtedness being refinanced). Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.18.  Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)  If the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount or indemnification payment to any Lender under Section 2.14 or to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Term Loans hereunder, to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation, assignment or filing

(i)  would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and

(ii)  would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense (other than immaterial costs and expenses) and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.02), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Term Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts due, owing and payable to it hereunder at such time, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 2.18 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such

37

#1038422810384414v3315

assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided, further that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

SECTION 2.19. Certain Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the fee set forth in that certain Administrative Agent Fee Letter dated as of March 17, 2020 between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower at the time set forth therein in immediately available funds.

(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender holding outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, a commitment fee (the “Delayed Draw Commitment Fee”) equal to (A) the average daily unused amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments of such Lender times (B) 0.15% per annum. All fees referred to in this Section 2.19(b) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, 2020, on June 30, 2020 and on the Delayed Draw Commitment Termination Date of the applicable Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments.

(c) The Borrower shall pay on the Closing Date to each Lender, as compensation for providing the Closing Date Term Loans and the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, an upfront fee (the “Upfront Fees”) in an amount equal to 0.50% of the sum of such Lender’s (x) Closing Date Term Loans actually funded on the Closing Date and (y) Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments as of the Closing Date. The Upfront Fees shall be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent as provided herein and in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.20. Right of Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(b), the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and their respective banking Affiliates) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding deposits in the Escrow Accounts, Payroll Accounts and other accounts, in each case, held in trust for an identified beneficiary) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent and each such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of any such overdue amounts owing to such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) or the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document; provided that each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application; provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22(b) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agree promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any of such banking Affiliates), as the case may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of

38

#1038422810384414v3315

such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.20 are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Lender and the Administrative Agent may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.

SECTION 2.21. Payment of Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, upon the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents of the Borrower, the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations.

SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees accruing pursuant to Section 2.19 during the period that such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees).

(b) Any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to the Term Loan Facility under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but shall instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in an Escrow Account until the termination of the Facility and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: First to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, second to the payment of the default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, third to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fourth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders and fifth after the termination of the Facility and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(c) If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the Lenders, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the Escrow Account), such Lender shall purchase at par such portions of outstanding Term Loans of the other Lenders, and/or make such other adjustments, as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Lenders to hold Term Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective applicable Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and/or Closing Date Term Loan Commitments, whereupon such Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments shall be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.23. Incremental Term Loans.

(a) Borrower Request. The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an increase to the existing Term Loan Facility (the commitments thereunder, the “Incremental Commitments”) in an amount not less than $50,000,000 individually and not

39

#1038422810384414v3315

to exceed the applicable Incremental Amount from one or more Incremental Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Commitments in their sole discretion; provided that each Incremental Lender (which is not an existing Lender) shall be subject to the approval requirements of Section 10.02. Each such notice shall specify:

(i) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the proposed Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and

(ii) the identity of each Eligible Assignee to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations (each provider of the Incremental Commitments referred to herein as an “Incremental Lender”); provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the proposed Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitment.

(b) Conditions. Any Incremental Commitments shall become effective as of the applicable Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such Increase Effective Date (both before and after giving effect thereto and, in the case of each Borrowing of Term Loans pursuant to Incremental Commitments, the application of proceeds therefrom) with the same effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date and in such case, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date; provided that any representation or warranty that is qualified by materiality, “Material Adverse Change” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be true and correct in all respects, as though made on and as of the applicable date, before and after giving effect to such Borrowing of Term Loans;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the Borrowings to be made on such Increase Effective Date; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that no Default or Event of Default in respect of Section 6.03 shall have occurred and be continuing nor result from the making of such Borrowing on and as of the applicable Increase Effective Date, without giving effect to any Asset Coverage Ratio Cure Period;

(iii) after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Commitments, the Aggregate Exposure with respect to all Lenders shall not exceed $4,000,000,000; and

(iv) the Borrower shall have duly executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a ShortMortgage Supplement to the Long Form Mortgage and/or other Collateral Documents granting first priority Liens and security interests in any additional Pool Assets required to maintain compliance with Section 6.03 (subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.01(a)) in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, and shall have caused any such Short Form Mortgage Supplement to be filed with the FAA in order to perfect the Liens on such additional Pool Assets, and a stamped version thereofin the form of Aircraft, and evidence of such filing will be provided to the Administrative Agent promptly after being made available by the FAA and no later than 25 business days after the applicable Increase Effective Date (or such longer period that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall register the International Interest in connection with the applicable Short Form Mortgage with the International Registry.

(c) Terms of Incremental Commitments. The terms and provisions of Term Loans made pursuant to the Incremental Commitments shall be identical to the existing Term Loans. For the

40

#1038422810384414v3315

avoidance of doubt, Term Loans made in respect of Incremental Commitments made in reliance on this Section 2.23 are intended to be fully fungible with the Closing Date Term Loans and any Delayed Draw Term Loans. Prior to any funding of Term Loans pursuant to Incremental Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 2.03 with respect to such Borrowing.

The Incremental Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Lender making such Incremental Commitment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this ‎Section 2.23. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in Loan Documents to Term Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Term Loans made pursuant to Incremental Commitments made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Equal and Ratable Benefit. The Loans and Incremental Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall constitute Loans and Incremental Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the security interests created by the applicable Mortgages. The Borrower shall take any actions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to ensure that the Lien and security interests granted by the Mortgages continue to be perfected after giving effect to the establishment of any such Incremental Commitments.

In case of any event with respect to the Borrower described in clause (f) or (g) of this Section 7.01, the actions and events described in (i) and (ii) above shall be required or taken automatically, without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby waived by the Borrower. Any payment received as a result of the exercise of remedies hereunder shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b).

SECTION 8.

THE AGENTS

SECTION 8.01. Administration by Agents.

(a) Each of the Lenders hereby irrevocably appoints JPMCB to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto.

(b) Each of the Lenders hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion:

(i) in connection with (x) the sale or other disposition of any Pool Assets or (y) any release of a Lien, in each case, to the extent permitted by the express terms of this Agreement, to release a Lien granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on such asset;

(ii) to enter into the other Loan Documents on terms acceptable to the Administrative Agent and to perform its respective obligations thereunder;

(iii) to enter into any other agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent granting Liens to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on any assets of the Borrower to secure the Obligations.

(c) Each of the parties hereto agrees that at such time as the Obligations (other than contingent indemnification obligations not due and payable) shall have been paid in full and any unused Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments hereunder have been terminated, each of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, hereunder and under the Mortgages shall automatically be discharged and released without any further action by any Person.

(d)(b) It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Documents (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

57

#1038422810384414v3315

SECTION 8.02. Rights of Administrative Agent. Any institution serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder shall have the same rights and powers in its capacity as a Lender as any other Lender and may exercise the same as though it were not the Administrative Agent and the term “Lender” or “Lenders” shall, unless otherwise expressly indicated or unless the context otherwise requires, include the institution serving as the Administrative Agent hereunder in its individual capacity. Such institution and its Affiliates may accept deposits from, lend money to, own securities of, act as the financial advisor or in any other advisory capacity for and generally engage in any kind of business with the Borrower or any Subsidiary or other Affiliate thereof as if such institution were not the Administrative Agent hereunder and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders.

SECTION 8.03. Liability of the Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder and thereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, (i) the Administrative Agent shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, (ii) the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Loan Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.08 or in the other Loan Documents) and (iii) except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries or Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the institution serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent will believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.08 and the final paragraph of Article 7) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into, (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Event of Default, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, and (iv) the Administrative Agent will not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law now or hereafter in effect.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or

58

#1038422810384414v3315

other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

(c) The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 8.04. Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse on demand the Administrative Agent for such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage of any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof, not reimbursed by the Borrower and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its Related Parties, on demand, in the amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower (except such as shall result from its gross negligence or willful misconduct).

SECTION 8.05. Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in consultation with the Borrower, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. For the avoidance of doubt, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice of resignation on the Resignation Effective Date. With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (b) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications

59

#1038422810384414v3315

and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.06. Independent Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 8.07. Advances and Payments.

(a) On the date of each Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Term Loan to be made by it in accordance with its Closing Date Term Loan Commitment or Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, hereunder. Should the Administrative Agent do so, each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the NYFRB Rate if not so reimbursed on the date due from and including such date but not including the date of reimbursement.

(b) Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement (other than amounts to which the Administrative Agent is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19, 8.04 and 10.04), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b). All amounts to be paid to a Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in that Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

SECTION 8.08. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that, except to the extent this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under the Term Loan Facility, if it shall, through the exercise either by it or any of its banking Affiliates of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender (or any of its banking Affiliates) under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Term Loans as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Term Loans is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Term Loans of any other Lender (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lender a participation in the Term Loans of such other Lender, so

60

#1038422810384414v3315

that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Term Loans and its participation in Term Loans of the other Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Term Loans then outstanding, as the principal amount of its Term Loans prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding, prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders under the Term Loan Facility share such payment pro-rata, provided that if any such non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered or otherwise set aside, such purchase of participations shall be rescinded (without interest). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Term Loan acquired pursuant to this Section or any of its banking Affiliates may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender as fully as if such Lender was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 8.09. Other Agents. No Agent (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no such Agent shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any such Agent in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

SECTION 8.10. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding tax applicable to such payment. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason, or the Administrative Agent has paid over to the Internal Revenue Service applicable withholding tax relating to a payment to a Lender but no deduction has been made from such payment, without duplication of any indemnification obligations set forth in ‎Section 8.04, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred.

SECTION 8.11. Appointment by Secured Parties. Each existing and future Secured Party shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of this Section 8 and to have acknowledged that the provisions of this Section 8 apply to such Secured Party mutatis mutandis as though it were a party hereto (and any acceptance by such Secured Party of the benefits of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed an acknowledgment of the foregoing).

63

#1038422810384414v3315

occurred and is continuing or (ii) if the assignee is a Lender or an Eligible Affiliate Assignee; providedfurther, that the Borrower will be deemed to have consented to any assignment of Term Loans unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof;

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) any assignment of any portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans shall be made to an Eligible Assignee;

(B) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans, the amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, and after giving effect to such assignment, the portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans held by the assigning Lender shall not be less than $1,000,000, in each case unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that any such assignment shall be in increments of $500,000 in excess of the minimum amount described above;

(C) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(E) the assignee, if it was not a Lender immediately prior to such assignment, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require.

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 10.02, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 10.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.02 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 (d) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Term Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all

64

#1038422810384414v3315

purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no assignment may be made hereunder to any Defaulting Lender or any of its subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v).

(vi) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable prorata share of Term Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower and Administrative Agent (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full prorata share of all outstanding Term Loans and in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(a), 8.04 or 10.04(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(d) (i)  Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans); 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 and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.08(a)that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it

65

#1038422810384414v3315

were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to the requirements of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term 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 Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Term Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement or any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Term Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16(f), 2.16(g), 2.16(h) and 2.18 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Any Lender may 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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.02 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.

(f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.02, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of Section 10.03 or other provisions at least as restrictive as Section 10.03.

SECTION 10.03. Confidentiality. Each Lender and each Agent agrees to keep any information delivered or made available by or on behalf of the Borrower to it confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures, from anyone other than persons employed or retained by such Lender or Agent who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Term Loans, and who are advised by such Lender or Agent of the confidential nature of such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender or Agent from disclosing such information (a) to any of its Related Parties and their respective agents, legal counsel, auditors and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential, and the applicable Lender or Agent shall be responsible for compliance by such Persons with such obligation) or to any other Lender, (b) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority (including in connection with any audit or examination by a bank examiner exercising examination or regulatory authority over such Lender or Agent), (d) which has

66

#1038422810384414v3315

been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by any Lender or Agent which is not permitted by this Agreement, (e) in connection with any litigation to which any Lender or Agent, or their respective Affiliates may be a party to the extent reasonably required, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (g) with the Borrower’s consent, (h) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender or Agent’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or Agent and (i) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, in each case, subject to the proviso in Section 10.02(f) (with any reference to any assignee or participant set forth in such proviso being deemed to include a reference to such contractual counterparty for purposes of this Section 10.03(i)). If any Lender or Agent is in any manner requested or required to disclose any of the information delivered or made available to it by the Borrower under clauses (b) or (e) of this Section, such Lender or Agent will, to the extent permitted by law, provide the Borrower with prompt notice, to the extent reasonable, so that the Borrower may seek, at its sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy or may waive compliance with this Section. In addition, any Lender or Agent may disclose information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry.

SECTION 10.04. Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.

(a)  (i) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse:

(A)  all reasonable fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers (limited in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, as counsel to the Administrative Agent) associated with the syndication of the credit facility provided for herein, and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents and (in the case of the Administrative Agent) any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); and

(B)  all fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (limited in the case of legal fees and expenses, to one (1) outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, an additional counsel to all such similarly situated affected parties)) in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents.

(ii) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse all reasonable fees and reasonable expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Appraisers incurred in connection with the Administrative Agent’s (x) periodic appraisals and (y) other monitoring of Pool Assets as allowed hereunder.

(iii) All payments or reimbursements pursuant to the foregoing clauses (a)(i) and (ii) shall be paid within thirty (30) days of written demand together with back-up documentation supporting such reimbursement request.

(b) The Borrower shall indemnify each Agent and each Lender, and each Related Party of any of the foregoing Persons (each such Person being called an “Indemnitee”) against, and hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses (limited in the case of legal fees and expenses, to one (1) outside counsel to all Indemnitees, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, an additional counsel to all such similarly situated affected Indemnitees)) incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in

67

#1038422810384414v3315

connection with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the performance by the parties hereto of their respective obligations hereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any Term Loan or the use of the proceeds therefrom, (iii) in connection with clauses (i) and (ii) above, any Release of Hazardous Materials on or from any property owned or operated by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Environmental Liability related to or asserted against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, or (iv) any actual or prospective claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether based on contract, tort or any other theory and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto and whether or not the same are brought by the Borrower, its equity holders, affiliates or creditors or any other Person; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to (x) have resulted from the material breach of the obligations of such Indemnitee under the Loan Documents or the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) arise from disputes solely among the Indemnitees (other than any dispute involving claims against any Person in its capacity as an Agent or similar role hereunder) that do not involve an act or omission by the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries. For the avoidance of doubt, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such portion of the unpaid amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall have any liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Term Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof (other than in respect of such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party).

SECTION 10.05. Governing Law; Jurisdiction; Consent to Service of Process.

(a)  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the law of the State of New York.

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law,

68

#1038422810384414v3315

(c) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, any objection which it may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement in any court referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section 10.05. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

(d) Each party to this Agreement irrevocably consents to service of process in the manner provided for notices in Section 10.01. Nothing in this Agreement will affect the right of any party to this Agreement to serve process in any other manner permitted by law.

SECTION 10.06. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

SECTION 10.07. Extension of Maturity. Should any payment of principal of or interest or any other amount due hereunder become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

SECTION 10.08. Amendments, etc.

(a) Except as set forth in Sections 2.09, Section 2.23 and 5.10 or as otherwise set forth in this Agreement, no modification, amendment or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or any Mortgage, and no consent to any departure by the Borrower therefrom, shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be in writing and signed by the Required Lenders (or signed by the Administrative Agent with the consent of the Required Lenders), and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the purpose for which given; provided, however, that no such modification or amendment shall without the prior written consent of:

(i) each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (A) increase the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of any Lender or extend the Delayed Draw Commitment Period (it being understood that a waiver of an Event of Default shall not constitute an increase in or extension of the termination date of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of a Lender), or (B) reduce the principal amount of any Term Loan or the rate of interest payable thereon (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary for a waiver of default interest referred to in Section 2.08), or extend any date for the payment of principal, interest or Fees hereunder or reduce any Fees payable hereunder or extend the final maturity of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or (B) amend, modify or waive any provision of Sections 2.17(b) or (e); and

(ii) all of the Lenders (A) amend or modify any provision of this Agreement which provides for the unanimous consent or approval of the Lenders or (B) amend this Section 10.08 that has the effect of changing the number or percentage of Lenders that must approve any modification, amendment, waiver or consent or modify the percentage of the Lenders required in the definition of

69

#1038422810384414v3315

Required Lenders.or (C) release all or substantially all of the Liens granted to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties hereunder or under any other Loan Document (except to the extent contemplated by Section 5.10(b) on the date hereof).

provided further, that any Mortgage may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (i) to add assets (or categories of assets) to the Pool Assets covered by such Loan Document, as contemplated by clause (c) of the definition of Additional Pool Assets set forth in Section 1.01 hereof or (ii) to remove any asset or type or category of asset (including after-acquired assets of that type or category) from the Pool Assets covered by such Loan Document to the extent the release thereof is permitted by Section 5.10(b).

(b) No such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent hereunder without its prior written consent.

(c) No notice to or demand on the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances. Each assignee under Section 10.02(b) shall be bound by any amendment, modification, waiver, or consent authorized as provided herein, and any consent by a Lender shall bind any Person subsequently acquiring an interest on the Term Loans held by such Lender. No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective against the Borrower unless signed by the Borrower.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), (i) in the event that the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner which would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders or the consent of all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby and, in each case, such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may replace any non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 10.02; provided that such amendment or modification can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this clause (i)); (ii) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that the Delayed Draw Term Loans and the outstanding Term Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders), (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Extension Agreement effected in accordance with Section 2.22 may be made without the consent of the Required Lenders and (iv) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified any ambiguity, mistake, typographical error or other obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any provision of the Loan Documents (including the exhibits and schedules thereto), 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 any Loan Document.

(e) In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Borrower and the lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (x) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder (any such amendment, a “Refinancing Amendment”) and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of Required Lenders; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such

70

#1038422810384414v3315

Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margins for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margins for such Refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the applicable Term Loans) and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest Term Loan Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to such refinancing. The effectiveness of (and the borrowing under) any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01(f) (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.04(b) and 3.06(a)) and 4.01(g) (it being understood that all references to the making or borrowing of Term Loans or similar language in such Section 4.01 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Refinancing Amendment) and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree.

(f) In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08, the Borrower may from time to time deliver to the Administrative Agent an updated Schedule 6.05 to replace the then-existing Schedule 6.05 in connection with (x) any disposition, transfer or removal by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower of any Pool Asset pursuant to Section 6.05 or (y) any designation of Additional Pool Assets as Pool Assets as contemplated by the definition of Additional Pool Assets set forth in Section 1.01 hereof.

SECTION 10.09. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.10. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience only and are not to affect the construction of or be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

SECTION 10.11. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Term Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Term Loan or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.04 and Section 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Term Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.12. Execution in Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness.

SECTION 10.15. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its stockholders and/or its affiliates. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise related to the Transactions will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other hand. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders, affiliates, creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

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

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Term Loan made hereunder, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders and each Lender’s share thereof. The Borrower shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to request information regarding the accounts referred to in the preceding sentence.

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

(e) Any Lender may request that Term Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in a form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Term Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to ‎Section 10.02) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

SECTION 2.11. Optional Termination or Reduction of Delayed Draw Commitments. Upon at least one (1) Business Day’s prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the unused Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments; provided that each such notice shall be revocable to the extent such termination or reduction would have resulted from a refinancing of the Obligations, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. Each such reduction of the unused Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments shall be in the principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Any reduction of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied on a pro rata basis.

(a) The Borrower shall prepay the Term Loans in an amount necessary to comply with ‎Section 6.03, in each case as directed by the Borrower.

(b) All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

SECTION 2.13. Optional Prepayment of Term Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall have the right, at any time and from time to time, to prepay any Term Loans, in whole or in part, (i) with respect to Eurodollar Term Loans, upon (A) telephonic

#10384414v15

notice followed promptly by written or facsimile notice or (B) written or facsimile notice received by 1:00 p.m.,New York City time, three (3) Business Days prior to the proposed date of prepayment and (ii) with respect to ABR Term Loans, upon written or facsimile notice received by 1:00 p.m.,New York City time, one (1) Business Day prior to the proposed date of prepayment; provided that ABR Term Loans may be prepaid on the same day notice is given if such notice is received by the Administrative Agent by 12:00 noon, New York City time; providedfurther, however, that (A) each such partial prepayment shall be in an amount not less than $5,000,000 and in integral multiples of $1,000,000, (B) no prepayment of Eurodollar Term Loans shall be permitted pursuant to this Section 2.13(a) other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto unless such prepayment is accompanied by the payment of the amounts described in Section 2.15, and (C) no partial prepayment of a Borrowing of Eurodollar Term Loans shall result in the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Term Loans remaining outstanding pursuant to such Borrowing being less than $5,000,000.

(b) All prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the principal amount of the Term Loans to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Term Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which made, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Term Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein; provided that the Borrower may revoke any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.13 if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of any or all of the Obligations hereunder, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender of the principal amount of the Term Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.

SECTION 2.14. Increased Costs.

(a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) subject any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement subject to Section 2.14(c)); or

(iii) impose on any Lender or the London interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Term Loans made by such Lender;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of converting any ABR Term Loan to a Eurodollar Term Loan or making, maintaining or continuing any Eurodollar Term Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Term Loan) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on

32

#10384414v15

such Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Term Loans made by such Lender to a level below that which such Lender or such Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or such Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that to the extent duplicative of the provisions in Section 2.16, this Section 2.14(b) shall not apply to Taxes.

(c) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Term Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Term Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the funding of the Eurodollar Term Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Term Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Term Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and which notice shall specify the Statutory Reserve Rate, if any, applicable to such Lender) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

(d) A certificate of a Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; providedfurther that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

(f) Any determination by a Lender of amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.14 to such Lender due to any Change in Law, pursuant to the proviso in the definition thereof shall be made in good faith in a manner generally consistent with such Lender’s standard practice.

SECTION 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Term Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow,

33

#10384414v15

convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Term Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) the assignment of any Eurodollar Term Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or Section 10.08(d), then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Term Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest for such Term Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Term Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

SECTION 2.16. Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to a Recipient, as determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this ‎Section 2.16), such Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii)  the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition (and without duplication of any payments with respect to Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(a)), the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of such Recipient on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. After a Recipient learns of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, such party will act in good faith to notify the Borrower promptly of its obligations thereunder. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

34

#10384414v15

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender's failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.02(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower as will (i) enable the Borrower to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements, and (ii) permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g) (1) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.16(f),

         (i) any Lender that is a U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (and the Borrower at its request) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

         (ii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) (and the Borrower at its request) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(2) executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI;

35

#10384414v15

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the Form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that (i) such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, and (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (ii) the interest payments in question are not effectively connected with the United States trade or business conducted by such Lender (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating bank granting a typical participation), an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or C-3 (as applicable), Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating bank) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such beneficial owner; or

(5) 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 to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

If the Administrative Agent is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.

The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(2) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not complied with such Lender's obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to

36

#10384414v15

deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (2), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over an amount equal to such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund (including Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) if, and then only to the extent, the payment of such amount would place the Administrative Agent or Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

SECTION 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, or fees or of amounts payable under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without setoff or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York, pursuant to wire instructions to be provided by the Administrative Agent, except that payments pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 10.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in the applicable currency.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Arrangers and the Lenders and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Term Loans, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards payment of principal of the Term Loans then due hereunder ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal then due to such parties.

37

#10384414v15

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(a), 8.04 or 10.04(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(e) Pro Rata Treatment.

(i) Each payment by the Borrower of interest in respect of the Term Loans shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders.

(ii) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Term Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Term Loans then held by the Lenders (except that any prepayment of Term Loans with the proceeds of Refinancing Debt shall be applied solely to each applicable tranche of the Indebtedness being refinanced). Amounts prepaid on account of the Term Loans may not be reborrowed.

SECTION 2.18.  Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount or indemnification payment to any Lender under Section 2.14 or to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Term Loans hereunder, to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation, assignment or filing (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense (other than immaterial costs and expenses) and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.02), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the

38

#10384414v15

outstanding principal of its Term Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts due, owing and payable to it hereunder at such time, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 2.18 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided, further that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

SECTION 2.19. Certain Fees.

(a) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent the fee set forth in that certain Administrative Agent Fee Letter dated as of March 17, 2020 between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower at the time set forth therein in immediately available funds.

(b) The Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender holding outstanding Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, a commitment fee (the “Delayed Draw Commitment Fee”) equal to (A) the average daily unused amount of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments of such Lender times (B) 0.15% per annum. All fees referred to in this Section 2.19(b) shall be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual number of days elapsed and payable quarterly in arrears on March 31, 2020, on June 30, 2020 and on the Delayed Draw Commitment Termination Date of the applicable Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments.

(c) The Borrower shall pay on the Closing Date to each Lender, as compensation for providing the Closing Date Term Loans and the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, an upfront fee (the “Upfront Fees”) in an amount equal to 0.50% of the sum of such Lender’s (x) Closing Date Term Loans actually funded on the Closing Date and (y) Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments as of the Closing Date. The Upfront Fees shall be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

(d) All Fees shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent as provided herein and in the Administrative Agent Fee Letter. Once paid, none of the Fees shall be refundable under any circumstances.

SECTION 2.20. Right of Set-Off. Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(b), the Administrative Agent and each Lender (and their respective banking Affiliates) is hereby authorized at any time and from time to time, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to set off and apply any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final but excluding deposits in the Escrow Accounts, Payroll Accounts and other accounts, in each case, held in trust for an identified beneficiary) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent and each such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of any such overdue amounts owing to such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) or the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents,

irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document; provided that each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application; provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.22(b) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agree promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any of such banking Affiliates), as the case may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.20 are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Lender and the Administrative Agent may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.

SECTION 2.21. Payment of Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, upon the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents of the Borrower, the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations.

SECTION 2.22. Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees accruing pursuant to Section 2.19 during the period that such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees).

(b) Any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to the Term Loan Facility under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but shall instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a Escrow Account until the termination of the Facility and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: First to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent, second to the payment of the default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, third to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fourth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders and fifth after the termination of the Facility and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(c) If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the Lenders, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the Escrow Account), such Lender shall purchase at par such portions of outstanding Term Loans of the other

40

#10384414v15

Lenders, and/or make such other adjustments, as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Lenders to hold Term Loans on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective applicable Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and/or Closing Date Term Loan Commitments, whereupon such Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments shall be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 2.23. Incremental Term Loans.

(a) Borrower Request. The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an increase to the existing Term Loan Facility (the commitments thereunder, the “Incremental Commitments”) in an amount not less than $50,000,000 individually and not to exceed the applicable Incremental Amount from one or more Incremental Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Commitments in their sole discretion; provided that each Incremental Lender (which is not an existing Lender) shall be subject to the approval requirements of Section 10.02. Each such notice shall specify (i) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the proposed Incremental Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (ii) the identity of each Eligible Assignee to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations (each provider of the Incremental Commitments referred to herein as an “Incremental Lender”); provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the proposed Incremental Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Incremental Commitment.

(b) Conditions. Any Incremental Commitments shall become effective as of the applicable Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) all representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of such Increase Effective Date (both before and after giving effect thereto and, in the case of each Borrowing of Term Loans pursuant to Incremental Commitments, the application of proceeds therefrom) with the same effect as if made on and as of such date except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date and in such case, such representations and warranties shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date; provided that any representation or warranty that is qualified by materiality, “Material Adverse Change” or “Material Adverse Effect” shall be true and correct in all respects, as though made on and as of the applicable date, before and after giving effect to such Borrowing of Term Loans;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the Borrowings to be made on such Increase Effective Date; provided, for the avoidance of doubt, that no Default or Event of Default in respect of Section 6.03 shall have occurred and be continuing nor result from the making of such Borrowing on and as of the applicable Increase Effective Date, without giving effect to any Asset Coverage Ratio Cure Period;

(iii) after giving effect to the incurrence of such Incremental Commitments, the Aggregate Exposure with respect to all Lenders shall not exceed $4,000,000,000; and

(iv) the Borrower shall have duly executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a Mortgage Supplement to the Long Form Mortgage and/or other Collateral Documents granting first

41

#10384414v15

priority Liens and security interests in any additional Pool Assets required to maintain compliance with Section 6.03 (subject to Liens permitted under Section 6.01(a)) in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders, and shall have caused any such Mortgage Supplement to be filed with the FAA in order to perfect the Liens on such additional Pool Assets in the form of Aircraft, and evidence of such filing will be provided to the Administrative Agent promptly after being made available by the FAA and no later than 5 business days after the applicable Increase Effective Date (or such longer period that is reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent) the Borrower shall register the International Interest in connection with the applicable Short Form Mortgage with the International Registry.

(c) Terms of Incremental Commitments. The terms and provisions of Term Loans made pursuant to the Incremental Commitments shall be identical to the existing Term Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, Term Loans made in respect of Incremental Commitments made in reliance on this Section 2.23 are intended to be fully fungible with the Closing Date Term Loans and any Delayed Draw Term Loans. Prior to any funding of Term Loans pursuant to Incremental Commitments, the Administrative Agent shall have received a Borrowing Request pursuant to Section 2.03 with respect to such Borrowing.

The Incremental Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Lender making such Incremental Commitment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.23. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in Loan Documents to Term Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Term Loans made pursuant to Incremental Commitments made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Equal and Ratable Benefit. The Loans and Incremental Commitments established pursuant to this Section 2.23 shall constitute Loans and Incremental Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall, without limiting the foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the security interests created by the applicable Mortgages. The Borrower shall take any actions reasonably required by the Administrative Agent to ensure that the Lien and security interests granted by the Mortgages continue to be perfected after giving effect to the establishment of any such Incremental Commitments.

(i) in connection with (x) the sale or other disposition of any Pool Assets or (y) any release of a Lien, in each case, to the extent permitted by the express terms of this Agreement, to release a Lien granted to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, on such asset;

The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent will believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 10.08 and the final paragraph of Article 7) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Event of Default unless and until written notice thereof is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender, and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for, or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into, (A) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (B) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (C) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Event of Default, (D) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, or (E) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 4 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent, and (iv) the Administrative Agent will not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Loan Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt, any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law now or hereafter in effect or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, or similar law now or hereafter in effect.

(b) The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the

59

#10384414v15

Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

(c) The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of the preceding paragraphs shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

SECTION 8.04. Reimbursement and Indemnification. Each Lender agrees (a) to reimburse on demand the Administrative Agent for such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage of any expenses and fees incurred for the benefit of the Lenders under this Agreement and any of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation, counsel fees and compensation of agents and employees paid for services rendered on behalf of the Lenders, and any other expense incurred in connection with the operations or enforcement thereof, not reimbursed by the Borrower and (b) to indemnify and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and any of its Related Parties, on demand, in the amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against it or any of them in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by it or any of them under this Agreement or any of the Loan Documents to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower (except such as shall result from its gross negligence or willful misconduct).

SECTION 8.05. Successor Agents. The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent (provided no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing) of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders with the consent of the Borrower (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed)) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), in consultation with the Borrower, on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above. For the avoidance of doubt, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed, the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice of resignation on the Resignation Effective Date. With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (a) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and (b) except for any indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights,

60

#10384414v15

powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than any rights to indemnity payments owed to the retiring Administrative Agent), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article and Section 10.04 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as the Administrative Agent.

SECTION 8.06. Independent Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

SECTION 8.07. Advances and Payments.

(a) On the date of each Term Loan, the Administrative Agent shall be authorized (but not obligated) to advance, for the account of each of the Lenders, the amount of the Term Loan to be made by it in accordance with its Closing Date Term Loan Commitment or Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment, as applicable, hereunder. Should the Administrative Agent do so, each of the Lenders agrees forthwith to reimburse the Administrative Agent in immediately available funds for the amount so advanced on its behalf by the Administrative Agent, together with interest at the NYFRB Rate if not so reimbursed on the date due from and including such date but not including the date of reimbursement.

(b) Any amounts received by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement (other than amounts to which the Administrative Agent is entitled pursuant to Sections 2.18, 2.19, 8.04 and 10.04), the application of which is not otherwise provided for in this Agreement, shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.17(b). All amounts to be paid to a Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be credited to that Lender, after collection by the Administrative Agent, in immediately available funds either by wire transfer or deposit in that Lender’s correspondent account with the Administrative Agent, as such Lender and the Administrative Agent shall from time to time agree.

SECTION 8.08. Sharing of Setoffs. Each Lender agrees that, except to the extent this Agreement expressly provides for payments to be allocated to a particular Lender or to the Lenders under the Term Loan Facility, if it shall, through the exercise either by it or any of its banking Affiliates of a right of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim against the Borrower, including, but not limited to, a secured claim under Section 506 of the Bankruptcy Code or other security or interest arising from, or in lieu of, such secured claim and received by such Lender (or any of its banking Affiliates) under any applicable bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or otherwise, obtain payment in respect of its Term Loans as a result of which the unpaid portion of its Term Loans is proportionately less than the unpaid portion of the Term Loans of any other Lender (a) it shall promptly purchase at par (and shall be deemed to have thereupon purchased) from such other Lender a participation in the Term Loans of such other Lender, so that the aggregate unpaid principal amount of each Lender’s Term Loans and its participation in Term Loans of the other Lenders shall be in the same proportion to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all

61

#10384414v15

Term Loans then outstanding, as the principal amount of its Term Loans prior to the obtaining of such payment was to the principal amount of all Term Loans outstanding, prior to the obtaining of such payment and (b) such other adjustments shall be made from time to time as shall be equitable to ensure that the Lenders under the Term Loan Facility share such payment pro-rata, provided that if any such non-pro-rata payment is thereafter recovered or otherwise set aside, such purchase of participations shall be rescinded (without interest). The Borrower expressly consents to the foregoing arrangements and agrees, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that any Lender holding (or deemed to be holding) a participation in a Term Loan acquired pursuant to this Section or any of its banking Affiliates may exercise any and all rights of banker’s lien, setoff or counterclaim with respect to any and all moneys owing by the Borrower to such Lender as fully as if such Lender was the original obligee thereon, in the amount of such participation.

SECTION 8.09. Other Agents. No Agent (other than the Administrative Agent) shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, no such Agent shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any such Agent in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

SECTION 8.10. Withholding Taxes. To the extent required by any applicable law, the Administrative Agent may withhold from any payment to any Lender an amount equivalent to any withholding tax applicable to such payment. If the Internal Revenue Service or any other Governmental Authority asserts a claim that the Administrative Agent did not properly withhold tax from amounts paid to or for the account of any Lender for any reason, or the Administrative Agent has paid over to the Internal Revenue Service applicable withholding tax relating to a payment to a Lender but no deduction has been made from such payment, without duplication of any indemnification obligations set forth in ‎Section 8.04, such Lender shall indemnify the Administrative Agent fully for all amounts paid, directly or indirectly, by the Administrative Agent as tax or otherwise, including any penalties or interest and together with any expenses incurred.

SECTION 8.11. Appointment by Secured Parties. Each existing and future Secured Party shall be deemed to have appointed the Administrative Agent as its agent under the Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of this Section 8 and to have acknowledged that the provisions of this Section 8 apply to such Secured Party mutatismutandis as though it were a party hereto (and any acceptance by such Secured Party of the benefits of this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be deemed an acknowledgment of the foregoing).

SECTION 8.12. Certain ERISA Matters.

(a)  Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of Section 3(42) of ERISA or otherwise) of one or more Benefit Plans with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement,

(ii) the transaction exemption set forth in one or more PTEs, such as PTE 84-14 (a class exemption for certain transactions determined by independent qualified professional asset

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate in, administer and perform the Term Loans and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84- 14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement, or

(iv) such other representation, warranty and covenant as may be agreed in writing between the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion, and such Lender.

(b) In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower, that the Administrative Agent is not a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Term Loans and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

64

#10384414v15

Loans unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after having received written notice thereof;

(ii) Assignments shall be subject to the following additional conditions:

(A) any assignment of any portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans shall be made to an Eligible Assignee;

(B) except in the case of an assignment to a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender or an assignment of the entire remaining amount of the assigning Lender’s Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans, the amount of such Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans of the assigning Lender subject to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such assignment is delivered to the Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $1,000,000, and after giving effect to such assignment, the portion of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments or Term Loans held by the assigning Lender shall not be less than $1,000,000, in each case unless the Borrower and the Administrative Agent otherwise consent, provided that any such assignment shall be in increments of $500,000 in excess of the minimum amount described above;

(C) each partial assignment shall be made as an assignment of a proportionate part of all the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement;

(iii) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section 10.02, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance, the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14, 2.16 and 10.04). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 10.02 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 (d) of this Section.

(iv) The Administrative Agent shall maintain at its offices a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the principal amount (and stated interest) of the Term Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for

65

#10384414v15

inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(v) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no assignment may be made hereunder to any Defaulting Lender or any of its subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (v).

(vi) In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment will be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, including funding, with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, the applicable prorata share of Term Loans previously requested but not funded by the Defaulting Lender, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Borrower and Administrative Agent (and interest accrued thereon), and (y) acquire (and fund as appropriate) its full prorata share of all outstanding Term Loans and in accordance with its Aggregate Exposure Percentage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder becomes effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest will be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

(c) Upon its receipt of a duly completed Assignment and Acceptance executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee, the assignee’s completed administrative questionnaire in a form as the Administrative Agent may require (unless the assignee shall already be a Lender hereunder), the processing and recordation fee referred to in paragraph (b) of this Section and any written consent to such assignment required by paragraph (b) of this Section, the Administrative Agent shall accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information contained therein in the Register; provided that if either the assigning Lender or the assignee shall have failed to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.04(a), 8.04 or 10.04(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to accept such Assignment and Acceptance and record the information therein in the Register unless and until such payment shall have been made in full, together with all accrued interest thereon. No assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Agreement unless it has been recorded in the Register as provided in this paragraph.

(d) (i) Any Lender may, without the consent of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments and Term Loans); 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 and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, modification or waiver described in the first proviso to Section 10.08(a)that affects such Participant. Subject to paragraph (d)(ii) of this Section, the Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.14 and 2.16 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section. To

66

#10384414v15

the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject to the requirements of Section 8.08 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Term 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 Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Term Loans or its other obligations under this Agreement or any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitments, Term Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16(f), 2.16(g), 2.16(h) and 2.18 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Any Lender may 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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.02 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.

(f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.02, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of ‎Section 10.03 or other provisions at least as restrictive as Section 10.03.

SECTION 10.03. Confidentiality. Each Lender and each Agent agrees to keep any information delivered or made available by or on behalf of the Borrower to it confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures, from anyone other than persons employed or retained by such Lender or Agent who are or are expected to become engaged in evaluating, approving, structuring or administering the Term Loans, and who are advised by such Lender or Agent of the confidential nature of such information; provided that nothing herein shall prevent any Lender or Agent from disclosing such information (a) to any of its Related Parties and their respective agents, legal counsel, auditors and other advisors (it being understood that the Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential, and the applicable Lender or Agent shall be responsible for compliance by such Persons with such obligation) or to any other Lender, (b) upon the order of any court or administrative agency, (c) upon the request or demand of any regulatory agency or authority (including in connection with any audit or examination by a bank examiner exercising examination or regulatory authority over such Lender or Agent), (d) which has been publicly disclosed other than as a result of a disclosure by any Lender or Agent which is not

67

#10384414v15

permitted by this Agreement, (e) in connection with any litigation to which any Lender or Agent, or their respective Affiliates may be a party to the extent reasonably required, (f) to the extent reasonably required in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder, (g) with the Borrower’s consent, (h) to any nationally recognized rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender or Agent’s investment portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender or Agent and (i) to any actual or proposed participant or assignee of all or part of its rights hereunder or to any direct or indirect contractual counterparty (or the professional advisors thereto) to any swap or derivative transaction relating to the Borrower and its obligations, in each case, subject to the proviso in Section 10.02(f) (with any reference to any assignee or participant set forth in such proviso being deemed to include a reference to such contractual counterparty for purposes of this Section 10.03(i)). If any Lender or Agent is in any manner requested or required to disclose any of the information delivered or made available to it by the Borrower under clauses (b) or (e) of this Section, such Lender or Agent will, to the extent permitted by law, provide the Borrower with prompt notice, to the extent reasonable, so that the Borrower may seek, at its sole expense, a protective order or other appropriate remedy or may waive compliance with this Section. In addition, any Lender or Agent may disclose information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent such portion of the unpaid amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall have any liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Term Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof (other than in respect of such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party).

(b) Each party hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submits, for itself and its property, to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Supreme Court of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the Southern District of New York sitting in New York County, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement, or for recognition or enforcement of any judgment, and each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally agrees that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard and determined in such New York State court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such Federal court.

SECTION 10.06. No Waiver. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any of the Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

SECTION 10.07. Extension of Maturity. Should any payment of principal of or interest or any other amount due hereunder become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

(i) each Lender directly and adversely affected thereby (A) increase the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of any Lender or extend the Delayed Draw Commitment Period (it being understood that a waiver of an Event of Default shall not constitute an increase in or extension of the termination date of the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of a Lender), or (B) reduce the principal amount of any Term Loan or the rate of interest payable thereon (provided that only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary for a waiver of default interest referred to in Section 2.08), or extend any date for the payment of principal, interest or Fees hereunder or reduce any Fees payable hereunder or extend the final maturity of the Borrower’s obligations hereunder or (B) amend, modify or waive any provision of Sections 2.17(b) or (e); and

(b) No such amendment or modification shall adversely affect the rights and obligations of the Administrative Agent hereunder without its prior written consent.

(c) No notice to or demand on the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

No amendment to this Agreement shall be effective against the Borrower unless signed by the Borrower.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), (i) in the event that the Borrower requests that this Agreement be modified or amended in a manner which would require the unanimous consent of all of the Lenders or the consent of all Lenders directly and adversely affected thereby and, in each case, such modification or amendment is agreed to by the Required Lenders, then the Borrower may replace any non-consenting Lender in accordance with Section 10.02; provided that such amendment or modification can be effected as a result of the assignment contemplated by such Section (together with all other such assignments required by the Borrower to be made pursuant to this clause (i)); (ii) no Defaulting Lender shall have any right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent hereunder, except that the Delayed Draw Term Loan Commitment of such Lender may not be increased or extended without the consent of such Lender (it being understood that the Delayed Draw Term Loans and the outstanding Term Loans held or deemed held by any Defaulting Lender shall be excluded for a vote of the Lenders hereunder requiring any consent of the Lenders), (iii) notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Extension Agreement effected in accordance with Section 2.22 may be made without the consent of the Required Lenders and (iv) if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall have jointly identified any ambiguity, mistake, typographical error or other obvious error or any error or omission of a technical or immaterial nature in any provision of the Loan Documents (including the exhibits and schedules thereto), 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 any Loan Document.

(e) In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08(a), this Agreement and, as appropriate, the other Loan Documents, may be amended with the written consent of the Administrative Agent (not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed), the Borrower and the lenders providing the relevant Replacement Term Loans (as defined below) as may be necessary or appropriate in the reasonable opinion of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower (x) to permit the refinancing, replacement or modification of all outstanding Term Loans (“Refinanced Term Loans”) with a replacement term loan tranche (“Replacement Term Loans”) hereunder (any such amendment, a “Refinancing Amendment”) and (y) to include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of Required Lenders; provided that (i) the aggregate principal amount of such Replacement Term Loans shall not exceed the aggregate principal amount of such Refinanced Term Loans, (ii) the Applicable Margins for such Replacement Term Loans shall not be higher than the Applicable Margins for such Refinanced Term Loans, (iii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such

71

#10384414v15

Replacement Term Loans shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of such Refinanced Term Loans at the time of such refinancing (except to the extent of nominal amortization for periods where amortization has been eliminated as a result of prepayment of the applicable Term Loans) and (iv) all other terms applicable to such Replacement Term Loans shall be substantially identical to, or less favorable to the Lenders providing such Replacement Term Loans than those applicable to such Refinanced Term Loans, except to the extent necessary to provide for covenants and other terms applicable to any period after the latest Term Loan Maturity Date in effect immediately prior to such refinancing. The effectiveness of (and the borrowing under) any Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.01(f) (other than the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.04(b) and 3.06(a)) and 4.01(g) (it being understood that all references to the making or borrowing of Term Loans or similar language in such Section 4.01 shall be deemed to refer to the effective date of such Refinancing Amendment) and such other conditions as the parties thereto shall agree.

(f) In addition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in Section 10.08, the Borrower may from time to time deliver to the Administrative Agent an updated Schedule 6.05 to replace the then-existing Schedule 6.05 in connection with (x) any disposition, transfer or removal by the Borrower or any Subsidiary of the Borrower of any Pool Asset pursuant to Section 6.05 or (y) any designation of Additional Pool Assets as Pool Assets as contemplated by the definition of Additional Pool Assets set forth in Section 1.01 hereof.

SECTION 10.09. Severability. Any provision of this Agreement held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability without affecting the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions hereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such provision in any other jurisdiction.

SECTION 10.10. Headings. Section headings used herein are for convenience only and are not to affect the construction of or be taken into consideration in interpreting this Agreement.

SECTION 10.11. Survival. All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Borrower herein and in the certificates or other instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement shall be considered to have been relied upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the making of any Term Loans, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Event of Default or incorrect representation or warranty at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as the principal of or any accrued interest on any Term Loan or any other amount payable under this Agreement is outstanding. The provisions of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 10.04 and Section 8 shall survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of the Term Loans or the termination of this Agreement or any provision hereof.

SECTION 10.12. Execution in Counterparts; Integration; Effectiveness. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement constitutes the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.01, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have

72

#10384414v15

received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

SECTION 10.13. USA PATRIOT Act.

EACH PARTY HERETO (A) CERTIFIES THAT NO REPRESENTATIVE, AGENT OR ATTORNEY OF ANY OTHER PARTY HAS REPRESENTED, EXPRESSLY OR OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS IN THIS SECTION.

SECTION 10.15. No Fiduciary Duty. Each Agent, each Lender and their Affiliates (collectively, solely for purposes of this paragraph, the “Lenders”), may have economic interests that conflict with those of the Borrower, its stockholders and/or its affiliates. The Borrower agrees that nothing in the Loan Documents or otherwise related to the Transactions will be deemed to create an advisory, fiduciary or agency relationship or fiduciary or other implied duty between any Lender, on the one hand, and the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates, on the other hand. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents (including the exercise of rights and remedies hereunder and thereunder) are arm’s-length commercial transactions between the Lenders, on the one hand, and the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, on the other hand, and (ii) in connection therewith and with the process leading thereto, (x) no Lender has assumed an advisory or fiduciary responsibility in favor of the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby (or the exercise of rights or remedies with respect thereto) or the process leading thereto (irrespective of whether any Lender has advised, is currently advising or will advise the Borrower, its stockholders or its affiliates on other matters) or any other obligation to the Borrower except the obligations expressly set forth in the Loan Documents and (y) each Lender is acting solely as principal and not as the agent or fiduciary of the Borrower, its management, stockholders, affiliates, creditors or any other Person. The Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the Borrower has consulted its own legal and financial advisors to the extent it deemed appropriate and that it is responsible for making its own independent judgment with respect to such transactions and the process leading thereto. The Borrower agrees that it will not claim that any Lender has rendered advisory services of any nature or respect, or owes a fiduciary or similar duty to the Borrower, in connection with such transaction or the process leading thereto.

SECTION 10.16. Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement,

73

#10384414v15

arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

#90303017v26

Event of Default or reduction or termination of the Revolving Commitments thereunder, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever.

(e) Reimbursement. If an Issuing Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit thereunder, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement or (subject to the two immediately succeeding sentences), with respect to any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, an amount equal to the amount of such LC Disbursement in the applicable Alternative Currency not later than the first Business Day following the date the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement; provided that, in the case of any LC Disbursement made in Dollars, to the extent not reimbursed and, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, including, without limitation, making a request in accordance with Section 2.03(a) that such payment shall be financed with an ABR Borrowing under the applicable Revolving Facility, as the case may be, in an equivalent amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower’s reimbursement of, or obligation to reimburse, any amounts in any Alternative Currency would subject the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any applicable Lender to any stamp, duty, ad valorem charge or similar tax that would not be payable if such reimbursement were made or required to be made in Dollars, the Borrower shall pay the amount of any such tax requested by the Administrative Agent, the relevant Issuing Lender or Lender. If the Borrower fails to make such payment when due, then (i) if such payment relates to an Alternative Currency Letter of Credit, automatically and with no further action required, the Borrower’s obligation to reimburse the applicable LC Disbursement shall be permanently converted into an obligation to reimburse the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the applicable Issuing Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement and the Dollar Amount thereof.

If the Borrower fails to make any payment due under the preceding paragraph with respect to a Letter of Credit when due (including by a Borrowing), the Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility of the applicable LC Disbursement (as converted to Dollars, if applicable), the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility shall pay to the Administrative Agent its applicable Revolving Commitment Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.04 with respect to Revolving Loans thereunder (or with respect to the LC Tranche Facility, as if Revolving Loans were available thereunder in the same manner as provided for in Section 2.04 with respect to the 3-Year Revolving Facility) made by such Lender (and Section 2.04 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Lender the amounts so received by it from the applicable Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 2.02(e) with respect to any LC Disbursement, the Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the applicable Issuing Lender or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Lender, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Lender as their interests may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Revolving Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

(f) Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of this Section 2.02 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of

41

#90303017v26

Credit or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein or herein, (ii) any draft or other document presented under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the applicable Issuing Lender under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, or (iv) any other event or circumstance whatsoever, whether or not similar to any of the foregoing, that might, but for the provisions of this Section 2.02, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, nor the applicable Issuing Lender, nor any of their Related Parties, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the applicable Issuing Lender; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Lender from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Lender’s failure to exercise care when determining whether drafts and other documents presented under a Letter of Credit comply with the terms thereof. The parties hereto expressly agree that, in the absence of gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on the part of the applicable Issuing Lender (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), the applicable Issuing Lender shall be deemed to have exercised care in each such determination. In furtherance of the foregoing and without limiting the generality thereof, the parties agree that, with respect to documents presented which appear on their face to be in substantial compliance with the terms of a Letter of Credit, the applicable Issuing Lender may, in its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.

(g) Disbursement Procedures. The applicable Issuing Lender shall, promptly following its receipt thereof or within the time period stipulated by the terms and conditions of the applicable Letter of Credit (if any), examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under a Letter of Credit. After such examination of such drawing documents, the applicable Issuing Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone (confirmed by telecopy) of such demand for payment and whether the applicable Issuing Lender has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of its obligation to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender and the Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility with respect to any such LC Disbursement in accordance with the terms herein.

(h) Interim Interest. If the applicable Issuing Lender shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse (including by a Borrowing) such LC Disbursement in full not later than the first Business Day following the date such LC Disbursement is made, the unpaid amount thereof shall bear interest, for each day from and including the date such LC Disbursement is made to but excluding the date that the Borrower reimburses such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility (or with respect to the LC Tranche Facility, as if Revolving Loans were available thereunder in the same manner as provided for in Section 2.04 with respect to the 3-Year Revolving Facility); provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.08 shall apply; providedfurther that, in the case of an LC Disbursement made

42

#90303017v26

under a Letter of Credit in an Alternative Currency, the amount of interest due with respect thereto shall (i) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed on the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement, (A) be payable in the applicable Alternative Currency and (B) if not reimbursed on the date of such LC Disbursement, bear interest at a rate equal to the rate reasonably determined by the applicable Issuing Lender to be the cost to such Issuing Lender of funding such LC Disbursement plus the Applicable Margin applicable to Eurodollar Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility at such time (or with respect to the LC Tranche Facility, as if Revolving Loans were available thereunder in the same manner as provided for in Section 2.04 with respect to the 3-Year Revolving Facility) and (ii) in the case of any LC Disbursement that is reimbursed after the Business Day immediately succeeding such LC Disbursement (A) be payable in Dollars, (B) accrue on the Dollar Amount of such LC Disbursement and (C) bear interest as provided above. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of the applicable Issuing Lender, except that interest accrued on and after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to clause (e) of this Section 2.02 to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

(i) Replacement of the Issuing Lender. Any Issuing Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Issuing Lender and the successor Issuing Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility of any such replacement of the Issuing Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.21. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor Issuing Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be issued thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Issuing Lender, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of an Issuing Lender hereunder, the replaced Issuing Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Lender under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(j) Replacement of Letters of Credit; Cash Collateralization. With respect to Letters of Credit issued under any Revolving Facility, the Borrower shall (i) upon or prior to the occurrence of the earlier of (A) the latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to all Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility and (B) the acceleration of the Revolving Loans (if any) under such Revolving Facility and the termination of the Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility in accordance with the terms hereof, (x) cause all Letters of Credit under such Revolving Facility which expire after the earlier to occur of (1) the latest Revolving Facility Maturity Date with respect to all Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility and (2) the acceleration of the Revolving Loans (if any) under such Revolving Facility and the termination of the Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility, in accordance with the terms hereof (the “Outstanding Letters of Credit”) to be returned to the applicable Issuing Lender undrawn and marked “cancelled” or (y) if the Borrower does not do so in whole or in part either (1) provide one or more “back-to-back” letters of credit to each applicable Issuing Lender with respect to any such Outstanding Letters of Credit in a form reasonably satisfactory to each such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, issued by a bank reasonably satisfactory to each such Issuing Lender and the Administrative Agent, and/or (2) deposit cash in an account maintained with the Administrative Agent, as collateral security for the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations in connection with any such Outstanding Letters of Credit, such cash (or any applicable portion thereof) to be promptly remitted to the Borrower (provided no Event of Default or event which upon notice or lapse of time or both would constitute an Event of Default has occurred or is continuing) upon the expiration, cancellation or other termination or satisfaction of the Borrower’s reimbursement obligations with respect

43

#90303017v26

to such Outstanding Letters of Credit, in whole or in part; in an aggregate principal amount for all such “back-to-back” letters of credit and any such Cash Collateralization equal to the then outstanding amount of all LC Exposure (less the amount, if any, on deposit in such account prior to taking any action pursuant to clauses (1) or (2) above), and (ii) if required pursuant to Section 2.02(m), 2.12(b), 2.26(b)(ii), 2.26(c)(ii), 2.26(d), 2.27(b) or 7.01 or pursuant to any Extension Agreement or Refinancing Amendment, deposit in such account an amount required pursuant to Section 2.02(m), 2.12(b), 2.26(b)(ii), 2.26(c)(ii), 2.26(d), 2.27(b) or 7.01, or pursuant to any such Extension Agreement or Refinancing Amendment, as applicable; provided that the portions of such amount attributable to undrawn Alternative Currency Letters of Credit or LC Disbursements in an Alternative Currency that the Borrower is not late in reimbursing shall be deposited in the applicable Alternative Currencies in the actual amounts of such undrawn Letters of Credit and LC Disbursements (any such deposit described in the preceding clause (i) or clause (ii), “Cash Collateralization”). The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over such account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent (in accordance with its usual and customary practices for investments of this type) and at the Borrower’s risk and reasonable expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the applicable Issuing Lender for LC Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time. If the Borrower is required to provide Cash Collateralization hereunder pursuant to Section 2.02(m), 2.12(b), 2.26(b)(ii), 2.26(c)(ii), 2.26(d) or 2.27(b), or the terms of any Extension Agreement or Refinancing Amendment, such Cash Collateralization (to the extent not applied as contemplated by the applicable section) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after the applicable section (or Extension Agreement or Refinancing Amendment, as applicable) no longer requires the provision of such Cash Collateralization.

(k) Issuing Lender Agreements. Unless otherwise requested by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Lender under any Revolving Facility shall report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) on the first Business Day of each week, the daily activity (set forth by day) in respect of Letters of Credit thereunder during the immediately preceding week, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancellations and all disbursements and reimbursements, (ii) on or prior to each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender expects to issue, amend, renew or extend any Letter of Credit, the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, the aggregate face amount of the Letters of Credit to be issued, amended, renewed, or extended by it (and whether, subject to Section 2.02(b), the face amount of any such Letter of Credit was changed thereby) and the aggregate face amount of such Letters of Credit outstanding under any Revolving Facility after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Lender makes any LC Disbursement, the date of such LC Disbursement and the amount of such LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which a Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed to such Issuing Lender on such day, the date of such failure, and the amount of such LC Disbursement and (v) on any other Business Day, such other information as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably request.

(l) Conversion. In the event that the Revolving Loans under any Revolving Facility become immediately due and payable on any date pursuant to Section 7.01, all amounts (i) that the Borrower is at the time or thereafter becomes required to reimburse or otherwise pay to the Administrative Agent in respect of LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit thereunder (other than amounts in respect of which such Borrower has deposited cash collateral pursuant to Section 2.02(j), if such cash collateral is deposited in the applicable Alternative Currency to the extent so deposited or applied), (ii) that the Lenders thereunder are at the time or thereafter become

44

#90303017v26

required to pay to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent is at the time or thereafter becomes required to distribute to the applicable Issuing Lender pursuant to Section 2.02(e) in respect of unreimbursed LC Disbursements made under any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit thereunder and (iii) of each Lender’s participation in any Alternative Currency Letter of Credit under which an LC Disbursement thereunder has been made shall, automatically and with no further action required, be converted into the Dollar Amount of such amounts. On and after such conversion, all amounts accruing and owed to the Administrative Agent, the applicable Issuing Lender or any Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility in respect of the Obligations described in this paragraph shall accrue and be payable in Dollars at the rates otherwise applicable hereunder.

(m) Provisions Related to Extended Revolving Commitments and Commitments in Respect of Refinancing Revolving Facilities. If the maturity date in respect of any tranche of Revolving Commitments occurs prior to the expiration of any Letter of Credit under the applicable Revolving Facility with respect to which Lenders holding such Revolving Commitments hold participation interests, then (i) if one or more other tranches of Revolving Commitments in respect of which the maturity date shall not have occurred are then in effect, such Letters of Credit shall automatically be deemed to have been issued (including for purposes of the obligations of the Lenders under such Revolving Facility to purchase participations therein and to make payments in respect thereof pursuant to Section 2.02(d) or (e) and for any reallocations required pursuant to Section 2.26(b)(i)) under (and ratably participated in by Lenders thereunder pursuant to) the Revolving Commitments in respect of such non-terminating tranches up to an aggregate amount not to exceed the aggregate principal amount of the unutilized Revolving Commitments thereunder at such time (it being understood that no partial face amount of any Letter of Credit may be so reallocated) and (ii) to the extent not reallocated pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i), the Borrower shall cash collateralize any such Letter of Credit in accordance with Section 2.02(j). For the avoidance of doubt, commencing with the maturity date of any tranche of Revolving Commitments under the applicable Revolving Facility, the sublimit for Letters of Credit under any tranche of Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility that has not so then matured shall be as agreed in the relevant Extension Agreement or Refinancing Amendment, as applicable, with such Lenders (to the extent such Extension Agreement or Refinancing Amendment so provides).

(n) Existing Letters of Credit. On the Amendment No. 1 Effective Date, the Existing Letters of Credit shall be deemed Letters of Credit under the LC Tranche Facility issued under this Section 2.02 and subject to the provisions hereof, without the need for any further action by the Borrower or any other Person (and without the payment of any fees otherwise due upon the issuance of a Letter of Credit).

Section 2.03. Requests for Borrowings.

(a) Unless otherwise agreed to by the Administrative Agent in connection with making the initial Revolving Loans on the Closing Date, if any, to request a Borrowing of Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such request by telephone (i) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, not later than 2:00 p.m., New York City time, three (3) Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of an ABR Borrowing, not later than 10:00 a.m., New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of an ABR Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.02(e) may be given not later than 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing. Each such telephonic Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Borrowing Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower. Each such telephonic and written Borrowing Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01(a):

45

#90303017v26

(i) the aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing (which shall comply with Section 2.01(c));

(ii) the date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing;

(iv) whether such Borrowing is under the 3-Year Revolving Facility or the 5-Year Revolving Facility; and

(v) in the case of a Eurodollar Borrowing, the initial Interest Period to be applicable thereto, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If no election as to the Type of Borrowing is specified, then the requested Borrowing shall be an ABR Borrowing. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested Eurodollar Borrowing, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Promptly following receipt of a Borrowing Request in accordance with this Section 2.03(a), the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Revolving Loan under such Revolving Facility to be made as part of the requested Borrowing.

Section 2.04. Funding of Borrowings.

(a) Each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility shall make each Revolving Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available funds by 2:00 p.m., New York City time, or such earlier time as may be reasonably practicable, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice to the Lenders. Upon satisfaction or waiver of the conditions precedent specified herein, the Administrative Agent will make such Revolving Loans available to the Borrower by promptly crediting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower designated by the Borrower in the applicable Borrowing Request; provided that ABR Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.02(e) shall be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Issuing Lender.

(b) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing (or, with respect to any ABR Borrowing made on same-day notice, prior to 12:00 noon, New York City time, on the date of such Borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with paragraphs (a) and/or (b) of this Section 2.04 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith upon written demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate otherwise applicable to such Borrowing. If such Lender pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Revolving Loan included in such Borrowing.

Section 2.05. Interest Elections.

(a)  The Borrower may elect from time to time to (i) convert ABR Revolving Loans to Eurodollar Revolving Loans, (ii) convert Eurodollar Revolving Loans to ABR Revolving Loans,

46

#90303017v26

provided that any such conversion of Eurodollar Revolving Loans may only be made on the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto or (iii) continue any Eurodollar Revolving Loan as such upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

(b) To make an Interest Election Request pursuant to this Section 2.05, the Borrower shall notify the Administrative Agent of such election by telephone by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under ‎Section 2.03(a) if the Borrower were requesting a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such telephonic Interest Election Request shall be irrevocable and shall be confirmed promptly by hand delivery or telecopy to the Administrative Agent of a written Interest Election Request in a form approved by the Administrative Agent and signed by the Borrower.

(c) Each telephonic and written Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01:

(i) the Borrowing to which such Interest Election Request applies (including whether such Borrowing is under the 3-Year Revolving Facility or the 5-Year Revolving Facility) and, if different options are being elected with respect to different portions thereof, the portions thereof to be allocated to each resulting Borrowing (in which case the information to be specified pursuant to clauses (iii) and (iv) below shall be specified for each resulting Borrowing);

(ii) the effective date of the election made pursuant to such Interest Election Request, which shall be a Business Day;

(iii) whether the resulting Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Eurodollar Borrowing; and

(iv) if the resulting Borrowing is a Eurodollar Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.

If any such Interest Election Request requests a Eurodollar Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(d) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(e) If the Borrower fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Eurodollar Borrowing prior to the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto, then, unless such Borrowing is repaid as provided herein, at the end of such Interest Period such Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and upon the request of the Required Lenders, (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Eurodollar Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each Eurodollar Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.06. Limitation on Eurodollar Tranches. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, all borrowings, conversions and continuations of Eurodollar Revolving Loans and all selections of Interest Periods shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, (a) after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Eurodollar Revolving Loans

47

#90303017v26

comprising each Eurodollar Tranche shall be equal to $5,000,000 or a whole multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof and (b) no more than twenty (20) Eurodollar Tranches shall be outstanding at any one time.

Section 2.07. Interest on Revolving Loans.

(a) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each ABR Revolving Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days or, when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate, a year with three hundred sixty five (365) days or three hundred sixty six (366) days in a leap year) at a rate per annum equal to the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.08, each Eurodollar Revolving Loan shall bear interest (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days) at a rate per annum equal, during each Interest Period applicable thereto, to the LIBO Rate for such Interest Period in effect for such Borrowing plus the Applicable Margin.

(c) Accrued interest on all Revolving Loans shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date applicable thereto, on the Termination Date with respect to such Revolving Loans or the related Revolving Commitments and thereafter on written demand and (with respect to Eurodollar Revolving Loans) upon any repayment or prepayment thereof (on the amount repaid or prepaid); provided that in the event of any conversion of any Eurodollar Revolving Loan to an ABR Revolving Loan, accrued interest on such Revolving Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.

Section 2.08. Default Interest. If the Borrower shall default in the payment of the principal of or interest on any Revolving Loan or in the payment of any fee becoming due hereunder or in the reimbursement pursuant to Section 2.02(e) of any LC Disbursement, whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, the Borrower shall on written demand of the Administrative Agent (which written demand shall be given at the request of the Required Lenders) from time to time pay interest, to the extent permitted by law, on all overdue amounts up to (but not including) the date of actual payment (after as well as before judgment) at a rate per annum (computed on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days or, when the Alternate Base Rate is applicable and is based on the Prime Rate, a year of three hundred sixty five (365) days or three hundred sixty six (366) days in a leap year) equal to (a) with respect to the principal amount of any Revolving Loan, the rate then applicable for such Borrowings plus 2.0%, and (b) with respect to interest, fees and reimbursement of LC Disbursements, the rate applicable for ABR Revolving Loans plus 2.0%.

Section 2.09. Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) In the event, and on each occasion, that on the date that is two (2) Business Days prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Eurodollar Revolving Loan, the Administrative Agent shall have reasonably determined (which determination shall be conclusive and binding upon the Borrower absent manifest error) that reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable LIBO Rate (including because the LIBO Screen Rate is not available or published on a current basis), the Administrative Agent shall, as soon as practicable thereafter, give written, facsimile or telegraphic notice of such determination to the Borrower and the Lenders and, until the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist, any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Revolving Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Revolving Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Revolving Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans.

48

#90303017v26

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that (i) the circumstances set forth in this Section 2.09 have arisen and such circumstances are unlikely to be temporary or (ii) the circumstances set forth in this Section 2.09 have not arisen but the supervisor for the administrator of the LIBO Screen Rate or a Governmental Authority having jurisdiction over the Administrative Agent has made a public statement identifying a specific date after which the LIBO Screen Rate shall no longer be used for determining interest rates for loans, then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall endeavor to establish an alternate rate of interest to the LIBO Rate that gives due consideration to the then prevailing market convention for determining a rate of interest for syndicated loans in the United States at such time, and shall enter into an amendment to this Agreement to reflect such alternate rate of interest and such other related changes to this Agreement as may be applicable; provided that, if such alternate rate of interest as so determined would be less than zero1.00%, such rate shall be deemed to be zero1.00% for the purposes of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 10.08, such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any Lender so long as the Administrative Agent shall not have received, within five Business Days of the date notice of such alternate rate of interest is provided to the Lenders, a written notice from the Required Lenders stating that such Required Lenders object to such amendment. Until an alternate rate of interest shall be determined in accordance with this clause (b) (but, in the case of the circumstances described in clause (ii) of the first sentence of this Section 2.09(b), only to the extent the LIBO Screen Rate for such Interest Period is not available or published at such time on a current basis), any request by the Borrower for a Borrowing of Eurodollar Revolving Loans hereunder (including pursuant to a refinancing with Eurodollar Revolving Loans and including any request to continue, or to convert to, Eurodollar Revolving Loans) shall be deemed a request for a Borrowing of ABR Revolving Loans.

Section 2.10. Repayment of Revolving Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the ratable account of each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility the then unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan then outstanding on the Termination Date applicable to such Revolving Loan.

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

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts for each Revolving Facility in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Revolving Loan made hereunder under such Revolving Facility, the Type thereof and the Interest Period applicable thereto, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder under such Revolving Facility and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder for the account of the Lenders under such Revolving Facility and each Lender’s share thereof. The Borrower shall have the right, upon reasonable notice, to request information regarding the accounts referred to in the preceding sentence.

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

49

#90303017v26

(e) Any Lender may request that Revolving Loans made by it under any Revolving Facility be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrower shall promptly execute and deliver to such Lender a promissory note payable to the order of such Lender (or, if requested by such Lender, to such Lender and its registered assigns) in a form furnished by the Administrative Agent and reasonably acceptable to the Borrower. Thereafter, the Revolving Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 10.02) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form payable to the order of the payee named therein (or, if such promissory note is a registered note, to such payee and its registered assigns).

Section 2.11. Optional Termination or Reduction of Revolving Commitments. Upon at least one (1) Business Day prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower may at any time in whole permanently terminate, or from time to time in part permanently reduce, the Unused Total Revolving Commitment under any Revolving Facility; provided that each such notice shall be revocable to the extent such termination or reduction would have resulted from a refinancing of the Obligations, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. Each such reduction of the Unused Total Revolving Commitment under any Revolving Facility shall be in the principal amount not less than $5,000,000 and in an integral multiple of $1,000,000. Simultaneously with each reduction or termination of the applicable Revolving Commitment, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility the Commitment Fee accrued and unpaid on the amount of the applicable Revolving Commitment of such Lender so terminated or reduced through the date thereof. Any reduction of the Total Revolving Commitment under the applicable Revolving Facility pursuant to this Section 2.11 shall be applied to reduce the Revolving Commitment under such Revolving Facility of each Lender on a pro rata basis.

Section 2.12. Mandatory Prepayment of Revolving Loans and Mandatory Commitment Reductions; Commitment Termination.

(a) The Borrower shall prepay the Revolving Loans under any Revolving Facility (without any corresponding reduction in Revolving Commitments) in an amount necessary to comply with Section 6.03, in each case as directed by the Borrower.

(b) If at any time the Total 3-Year Revolving Extensions of Credit for any reason exceed the Total 3-Year Revolving Commitment at such time or the Total 5-Year Revolving Extensions of Credit for any reason exceed the Total 5-Year Revolving Commitment at such time, the Borrower shall prepay Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility on a pro rata basis in an amount sufficient to eliminate such excess. If, after giving effect to the prepayment of all outstanding Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility, the Total 3-Year Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the Total 3-Year Revolving Commitment then in effect or the Total 5-Year Revolving Extensions of Credit exceed the Total 5-Year Revolving Commitment then in effect, the Borrower shall Cash Collateralize outstanding Letters of Credit under the applicable Revolving Facility to the extent of such excess.

(c) Upon the Termination Date applicable to any Revolving Commitment, such Revolving Commitment shall be terminated in full and the Borrower shall repay the applicable Revolving Loans in full and, except as the Administrative Agent may otherwise agree in writing, if any Letter of Credit remains outstanding under the applicable Revolving Facility, comply with Section 2.02(j) in accordance therewith.

(d) All prepayments under this Section 2.12 shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Section 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

(b) All prepayments under Section 2.13(a) shall be accompanied by accrued but unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to (but not including) the date of prepayment, plus any Fees and any losses, costs and expenses, as more fully described in Sections 2.15 and 2.19 hereof.

(c) Each notice of prepayment shall specify the prepayment date, the applicable Revolving Facility, the principal amount of the Revolving Loans thereunder to be prepaid and, in the case of Eurodollar Revolving Loans, the Borrowing or Borrowings pursuant to which made, shall be irrevocable and shall commit the Borrower to prepay such Revolving Loan by the amount and on the date stated therein; provided that the Borrower may revoke any notice of prepayment under this Section 2.13 if such prepayment would have resulted from a refinancing of any or all of the Obligations hereunder, which refinancing shall not be consummated or shall otherwise be delayed. The Administrative Agent shall, promptly after receiving notice from the Borrower hereunder, notify each Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility of the principal amount of the Revolving Loans held by such Lender which are to be prepaid, the prepayment date and the manner of application of the prepayment.

Section 2.14. Increased Costs.

(a)  If any Change in Law shall:

(i) subject any Lender or Issuing Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes or (B) Excluded Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(ii) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender (except any such reserve requirement subject to Section 2.14(c)) or Issuing Lender; or

(iii) impose on any Lender or Issuing Lender or the London interbank market any other condition (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Eurodollar Revolving Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing shall be to increase the cost to such Lender of converting any ABR Revolving Loan to a Eurodollar Revolving Loan or making, maintaining or continuing any Eurodollar

51

#90303017v26

Revolving Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Revolving Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender or Issuing Lender of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender or Issuing Lender hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any Lender or Issuing Lender reasonably determines in good faith that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has or would have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement or the Revolving Loans made by, or participations in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Lender, to a level below that which such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law (taking into consideration such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time the Borrower will pay to such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts, in each case as documented by such Lender or Issuing Lender to the Borrower as will compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s holding company for any such reduction suffered; it being understood that to the extent duplicative of the provisions in Section 2.16, this Section 2.14(b) shall not apply to Taxes.

(c) The Borrower shall pay to each Lender (i) as long as such Lender shall be required to maintain reserves with respect to liabilities or assets consisting of or including Eurodollar funds or deposits, additional interest on the unpaid principal amount of each Eurodollar Revolving Loan equal to the actual costs of such reserves allocated to such Revolving Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error) and (ii) as long as such Lender shall be required to comply with any reserve ratio requirement or analogous requirement of any other central banking or financial regulatory authority imposed in respect of the maintenance of the Revolving Commitments or the funding of the Eurodollar Revolving Loans, such additional costs (expressed as a percentage per annum and rounded upwards, if necessary, to the nearest five decimal places) equal to the actual costs allocated to such Revolving Commitment or Revolving Loan by such Lender (as determined by such Lender in good faith, which determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error) which in each case shall be due and payable on each date on which interest is payable on such Revolving Loan, provided the Borrower shall have received at least fifteen (15) days’ prior notice (with a copy to the Administrative Agent, and which notice shall specify the Statutory Reserve Rate, if any, applicable to such Lender) of such additional interest or cost from such Lender. If a Lender fails to give notice fifteen (15) days prior to the relevant Interest Payment Date, such additional interest or cost shall be due and payable fifteen (15) days from receipt of such notice.

(d) A certificate of a Lender or Issuing Lender setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Lender or its holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a), (b) or (c) of this Section 2.14 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender or Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

(e) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender or Issuing Lender to demand compensation pursuant to this Section 2.14 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender or Issuing Lender pursuant to this Section 2.14 for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than one hundred eighty (180) days prior to the date that such Lender or Issuing Lender, as

52

#90303017v26

the case may be, notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; providedfurther that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the one hundred eighty (180) day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof. The protection of this Section 2.14 shall be available to each Lender regardless of any possible contention as to the invalidity or inapplicability of the law, rule, regulation, guideline or other change or condition which shall have occurred or been imposed.

(f) Any determination by a Lender or Issuing Lender of amounts owed pursuant to this Section 2.14 to such Lender or Issuing Lender due to any Change in Law, pursuant to the proviso in the definition thereof shall be made in good faith in a manner generally consistent with such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s standard practice.

Section 2.15. Break Funding Payments. In the event of (a) the payment of any principal of any Eurodollar Revolving Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default), (b) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Eurodollar Revolving Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, or (c) the assignment of any Eurodollar Revolving Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower pursuant to Section 2.18 or Section 10.08(d), then, in any such event, at the request of such Lender, the Borrower shall compensate such Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event. Such loss, cost or expense to any Lender shall be deemed to include an amount reasonably determined in good faith by such Lender or Issuing Lender to be the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the principal amount of such Revolving Loan had such event not occurred, at the applicable rate of interest for such Revolving Loan (excluding, however the Applicable Margin included therein, if any), for the period from the date of such event to the last day of the then current Interest Period therefor (or, in the case of a failure to borrow, convert or continue, for the period that would have been the Interest Period for such Revolving Loan), over (ii) the amount of interest which would accrue on such principal amount for such period at the interest rate which such Lender would bid were it to bid, at the commencement of such period, for dollar deposits of a comparable amount and period from other banks in the eurodollar market. A certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.15 shall be delivered to the Borrower and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall pay such Lender the amount shown as due on any such certificate within fifteen (15) days after receipt thereof.

Section 2.16. Taxes.

(a)  Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes; provided that if any Indemnified Tax or Other Taxes are required to be withheld from any amounts payable to a Recipient, as determined in good faith by the applicable Withholding Agent, then (i) the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after making all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.16), such Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions been made, (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall make such deductions and (iii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall timely pay the full amount deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

(b) In addition (and without duplication of any payments with respect to Other Taxes pursuant to Section 2.16(a)), the Borrower shall pay any Other Taxes to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law.

53

#90303017v26

(c) The Borrower shall indemnify each Recipient within thirty (30) days after written demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes paid by or on behalf of such Recipient on or with respect to any payment by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower hereunder or under any other Loan Document (including Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 2.16) and any penalties, interest and reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. After a Recipient learns of the imposition of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes, such party will act in good faith to notify the Borrower promptly of its obligations thereunder. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender or Issuing Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender or Issuing Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) As soon as practicable after any payment of Indemnified Taxes or Other Taxes by the Borrower to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.16, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment to the extent available, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(e) Each Lender and Issuing Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any Taxes attributable to such Lender or Issuing Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so) and (ii) any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s or Issuing Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.02(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register, in either 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 or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender and Issuing 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 or Issuing Lender (as the case may be) from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this paragraph (e).

(f) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding tax with respect to payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), at the time or times prescribed by applicable law or as reasonably requested by the Borrower, such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or requested by the Borrower as will (i) enable the Borrower to determine whether such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements, and (ii) permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate; provided that a Foreign Lender shall not be required to deliver any documentation pursuant to this Section 2.16(f) that such Foreign Lender is not legally able to deliver.

(g)  (1) (i) Without limiting the generality of Section 2.16(f),

(A) (i) any Lender that is a U.S. Person (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (and the Borrower at its request) on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of

54

#90303017v26

Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax;

(B) (ii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) (and the Borrower at its request) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered certificates and/or forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party, executed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the Form of Exhibit C-1 to the effect that (i) such Foreign Lender is not (A) a “bank” within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, (B) a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, and (C) a “controlled foreign corporation” described in section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code, and (ii) the interest payments in question are not effectively connected with the United States trade or business conducted by such Lender (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) duly completed copies of Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable;

(4) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner (for example, where the Foreign Lender is a partnership or participating bank granting a typical participation), an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, accompanied by a Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 or C-3 (as applicable), Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership (and not a participating bank) and one or more beneficial owners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit C-4 on behalf of each such beneficial owner; or

(5) 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 to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made.

If the Administrative Agent is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document, the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, on or prior to the date on which it becomes the Administrative Agent (and from time to time thereafter when the previously delivered forms expire, or upon the reasonable request of the Borrower), such properly completed and executed documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding.

55

#90303017v26

The Administrative Agent and each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(ii) (2) If a payment made to a Lender under this Agreement or any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such documentation prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to comply with its obligations under FATCA, to determine that such Lender has or has not 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 clause (2), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(h) If the Administrative Agent or a Lender determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 2.16, it shall pay over an amount equal to such refund to the Borrower (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 2.16 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent or such Lender incurred in obtaining such refund (including Taxes imposed with respect to such refund) and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund); provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Administrative Agent or such Lender in the event the Administrative Agent or such Lender is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (h), in no event will the Administrative Agent or any Lender be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this paragraph (h) if, and then only to the extent, the payment of such amount would place the Administrative Agent or Lender in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the Administrative Agent or Lender would have been in if the indemnification payments or additional amounts giving rise to such refund had never been paid. This Section shall not be construed to require the Administrative Agent or any Lender to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes which it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

Section 2.17. Payments Generally; Pro Rata Treatment.

(a) The Borrower shall make each payment or prepayment required to be made by it hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.14 or 2.15, or otherwise) prior to 1:00 p.m., New York City time, on the date when due, in immediately available funds, without set-off or counterclaim. Any amounts received after such time on any date may, in the reasonable discretion of the Administrative Agent, be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day for purposes of calculating interest thereon. All such payments shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its offices at 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10179, pursuant to wire instructions to be provided by the Administrative Agent, except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments

56

#90303017v26

pursuant to Sections 2.14, 2.15 and 10.04 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto. The Administrative Agent shall distribute any such payments received by it for the account of any other Person to the appropriate recipient promptly following receipt thereof. If any payment hereunder shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date for payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, in the case of any payment accruing interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in the applicable currency.

(b) If at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay fully all Obligations then due hereunder, such funds shall be applied (i) first, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.19 and 10.04 payable to the Administrative Agent, (ii) second, towards payment of Fees and expenses then due under Sections 2.20, 2.21 and 10.04 payable to the Agents, the Lenders and the Issuing Lenders and towards payment of interest then due on account of the Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of such Fees and expenses and interest then due to such parties and (iii) third, towards payment of (A) principal of the Revolving Loans and unreimbursed LC Disbursements then due hereunder, (B) any Designated Banking Product Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Banking Product Obligations constitute “Obligations” hereunder, and (C) any Designated Hedging Obligations then due, to the extent such Designated Hedging Obligations constitute “Obligations” hereunder, ratably among the parties entitled thereto in accordance with the amounts of principal, and unreimbursed LC Disbursements, Designated Banking Product Obligations constituting Obligations and Designated Hedging Obligations constituting Obligations then due to such parties.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender or Issuing Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.

(d) If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 2.02(d), 2.02(e), 2.04(a), 8.04 or 10.04(c), then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(e) Pro Rata Treatment.

(i)  Each payment by the Borrower of interest in respect of the Revolving Loans of any Class shall be applied to the amounts of such obligations owing to the Lenders of such Class pro rata according to the respective amounts then due and owing to the Lenders.

(ii) Each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of the Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Revolving Loans then held by the Lenders under such Revolving Facility.

57

#90303017v26

Section 2.18. Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

(a)  If the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount or indemnification payment to any Lender under Section 2.14 or to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, then such Lender shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Revolving Loans hereunder, to assign its rights and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates or to file any certificate or document reasonably requested by the Borrower, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation, assignment or filing (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.14 or 2.16, as the case may be, in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense (other than immaterial costs and expenses) and would not otherwise be materially disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If, after the date hereof, any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.14 or if the Borrower is required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.16, or becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.02), all its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Revolving Loans and participations in LC Disbursements, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts due, owing and payable to it hereunder at such time, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts) and (ii) in the case of payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.16, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment and delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

(c) Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 2.18 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Acceptance executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to and be bound by the terms thereof; provided that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided, further that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

Section 2.19. Certain Fees. The Borrower shall pay (a) to the Lenders (or their affiliates) party thereto the fees set forth in that certain Upfront Fee Letter dated as of March 30, 2018 among such Lenders (or their affiliates) and the Borrower at the times set forth therein and (b) to the Administrative Agent the fees set forth in that certain Administrative Agent Fee Letter dated as of March 30, 2018 between the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, in each case at the times set forth therein.

earlier date of termination of the applicable Revolving Commitment under such Revolving Facility, computed (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days) at the Commitment Fee Rate on the average daily Unused Total Revolving Commitment with respect to such Revolving Facility. Such Commitment Fee, to the extent then accrued, shall be payable (i) on the last Business Day of each March, June, September and December, (ii) on the LC Tranche Facility Termination Date with respect to the LC Tranche Commitments, on the 3-Year Revolving Facility Termination Date with respect to the 3-Year Revolving Commitments and on the 5-Year Revolving Facility Termination Date with respect to the 5-Year Revolving Commitments, and (iii) as provided in Section 2.11 hereof, upon any reduction or termination in whole or in part of the Total LC Tranche Commitment, Total 3-Year Revolving Commitment or the Total 5-Year Revolving Commitment, as applicable.

(b) The Borrower shall pay on the Closing Date (x) to each Lender under the 3-Year Revolving Facility as of such date, as compensation for providing the 3-Year Revolving Commitments, an upfront fee (the “3-Year Upfront Fee”) in an amount equal to 0.15% of such Lender’s 3-Year Revolving Commitment on the Closing Date and (y) to each Lender under the 5-Year Revolving Facility as of such date, as compensation for providing the 5-Year Revolving Commitments, an upfront fee (the “5-Year Upfront Fee” and, together with the 3-Year Upfront Fee, the “Upfront Fees”) in an amount equal to 0.25% of such Lender’s 5-Year Revolving Commitment on the Closing Date. The Upfront Fees shall be in all respects fully earned, due and payable on the Closing Date and non-refundable and non-creditable thereafter.

The Borrower shall pay with respect to each Letter of Credit under the applicable Revolving Facility (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders under such Revolving Facility a fee calculated (on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed over a year of three hundred sixty (360) days) at the per annum rate equal to the Applicable Margin then in effect with respect to Eurodollar Revolving Loans under such Revolving Facility on the daily average LC Exposure under such Revolving Facility (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC Disbursements), to be shared ratably among the Lenders under such Revolving Facility and (ii) to each Issuing Lender (with respect to each Letter of Credit issued by it), such Issuing Lender’s customary fees for issuance, amendments and processing referred to in Section 2.02.

provisional or final but excluding deposits in the Escrow Accounts, Payroll Accounts and other accounts, in each case, held in trust for an identified beneficiary) at any time held and other indebtedness at any time owing by the Administrative Agent and each such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower against any and all of any such overdue amounts owing to such Lender (or any of such banking Affiliates) or the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents, irrespective of whether or not the Administrative Agent or such Lender shall have made any demand under any Loan Document; provided that each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Administrative Agent after any such set off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such setoff and application; provided, further, that in the event that any Defaulting Lender exercises any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off will be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.26(e) and, pending such payment, will be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders and the Lenders and (y) the Defaulting Lender will provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agree promptly to notify the Borrower after any such set-off and application made by such Lender or the Administrative Agent (or any of such banking Affiliates), as the case may be, provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. The rights of each Lender and the Administrative Agent under this Section 2.23 are in addition to other rights and remedies which such Lender and the Administrative Agent may have upon the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default.

Section 2.24. [Reserved].

Section 2.25. Payment of Obligations. Subject to the provisions of Section 7.01, upon the maturity (whether by acceleration or otherwise) of any of the Obligations under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents of the Borrower, the Lenders shall be entitled to immediate payment of such Obligations.

Section 2.26. Defaulting Lenders. (a) Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, no Defaulting Lender shall be entitled to receive any fees accruing pursuant to Section 2.20(a) and 2.21 during the period that such Lender is a Defaulting Lender (without prejudice to the rights of the Non-Defaulting Lenders in respect of such fees), provided that (1) to the extent that all or a portion of the LC Exposure with respect to a Revolving Facility of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated to the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Revolving Facility pursuant to Section 2.26(b)(i), such fees that would have accrued for the benefit of such Defaulting Lender shall instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to such Non-Defaulting Lenders, prorata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility, and (2) to the extent that all or any portion of such LC Exposure cannot be so reallocated and is not Cash Collateralized in accordance with Section 2.26(b)(ii), such fees shall instead accrue for the benefit of and be payable to the Issuing Lenders as their interests appear (and the applicable prorata payment provisions under this Agreement shall automatically be deemed adjusted to reflect the provisions of this Section).

(b) If any LC Exposure with respect to a Revolving Facility exists at the time a Lender under such Revolving Facility becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) the LC Exposure under such Revolving Facility of such Defaulting Lender will, upon notice by the Administrative Agent, and subject in any event to the limitation in the first proviso below, automatically be reallocated (effective on the day such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender) among the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Revolving Facility prorata in accordance with their respective Revolving Commitments thereunder; provided that (A) the

60

#90303017v26

Revolving Extensions of Credit under such Revolving Facility of each such Non-Defaulting Lender may not in any event exceed the Revolving Commitment under such Revolving Facility of such Non-Defaulting Lender as in effect at the time of such reallocation, (B) subject to Section 10.16, such reallocation will not constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Lenders or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation and (C) neither such reallocation nor any payment by a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result thereof will cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender; and

(ii) to the extent that any portion (the “unreallocated portion”) of the Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure under the applicable Revolving Facility cannot be so reallocated, whether by reason of the first proviso in clause (i) above or otherwise, the Borrower will, not later than three (3) Business Days after demand by the Administrative Agent, (A) Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to the Issuing Lenders in respect of such LC Exposure in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the unreallocated portion of such LC Exposure or (B) make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

(c) In addition to the other conditions precedent set forth in this Agreement, if any Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender, no Issuing Lender shall be required to issue any Letter of Credit or to amend any outstanding Letter of Credit under such Revolving Facility, unless:

(i) in the case of a Defaulting Lender, the LC Exposure under such Revolving Facility of such Defaulting Lender is reallocated, as to outstanding and future Letters of Credit, to the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Revolving Facility as provided in Section 2.26(b)(i), and

(ii) to the extent full reallocation does not occur as provided in clause (i) above, without limiting the provisions of Section 2.26(d), the Borrower Cash Collateralizes the obligations of the Borrower in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit, or makes other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lenders in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender, or

(iii) to the extent that neither reallocation nor Cash Collateralization occurs pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii), then in the case of a proposed issuance of a Letter of Credit under the applicable Revolving Facility, by an instrument or instruments in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, and to such Issuing Lender, as the case may be, (A) the Borrower agrees that the face amount of such requested Letter of Credit will be reduced by an amount equal to the portion thereof as to which such Defaulting Lender would otherwise be liable, and (B) the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Revolving Facility confirm, in their discretion, that their obligations in respect of such Letter of Credit shall be on a pro rata basis in accordance with the Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility of the Non-Defaulting Lenders, and that the applicable pro rata payment provisions under this Agreement will be deemed adjusted to reflect this provision (provided that nothing in this clause (iii) will be deemed to increase the Revolving Commitments of any Lender, nor to constitute a waiver or release of any claim the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Lender or any other Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender, nor to cause such Defaulting Lender to be a Non-Defaulting Lender).

61

#90303017v26

(d) If any Lender under the applicable Revolving Facility becomes, and during the period it remains, a Defaulting Lender and if any Letter of Credit under such Revolving Facility is at the time outstanding, the applicable Issuing Lender may (except to the extent the applicable Revolving Commitments of such Defaulting Lender have been fully reallocated pursuant to Section 2.26(b)(i)), by notice to the Borrower and such Defaulting Lender through the Administrative Agent, require the Borrower to Cash Collateralize the obligations of the Borrower to such Issuing Lender in respect of such Letter of Credit in an amount at least equal to the aggregate amount of the obligations (contingent or otherwise) of such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof, or to make other arrangements satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and such Issuing Lender in their sole discretion to protect them against the risk of non-payment by such Defaulting Lender.

(e) Any amount paid by the Borrower or otherwise received by the Administrative Agent for the account of a Defaulting Lender with respect to any Revolving Facility under this Agreement (whether on account of principal, interest, fees, indemnity payments or other amounts) will not be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but shall instead be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account until (subject to Section 2.26(f)) the termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower hereunder under the applicable Revolving Facility and will be applied by the Administrative Agent, to the fullest extent permitted by law, to the making of payments from time to time in the following order of priority: First to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under the applicable Revolving Facility, second to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Issuing Lenders under this Agreement under the applicable Revolving Facility, third to the payment of the default interest and then current interest due and payable to the Lenders which are Non-Defaulting Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such interest then due and payable to them, fourth to the payment of fees then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility hereunder, ratably among them in accordance with the amounts of such fees then due and payable to them, fifth to pay principal and unreimbursed LC Disbursements under the applicable Revolving Facility then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders under such Revolving Facility hereunder ratably in accordance with the amounts thereof then due and payable to them, sixth to the ratable payment of other amounts then due and payable to the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the applicable Revolving Facility, and seventh after the termination of the applicable Revolving Commitments and payment in full of all obligations of the Borrower under the applicable Revolving Facility, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct.

(f) If the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Lenders agree in writing that a Lender that is a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the Lenders, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any amounts then held in the segregated account referred to in Section 2.26(e)), such Lender shall purchase at par such portions of outstanding Revolving Loans of the other Lenders under such applicable Revolving Facility, and/or make such other adjustments, as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the Lenders to hold Revolving Loans under each such Revolving Facility on a prorata basis in accordance with their respective applicable Revolving Commitments, whereupon such Lender shall cease to be a Defaulting Lender and will be a Non-Defaulting Lender (and the LC Exposure under each such Revolving Facility of each Lender shall automatically be adjusted on a prospective basis to reflect the foregoing); provided that no adjustments shall be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued while such Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Non-Defaulting Lender shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from

62

#90303017v26

such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (x) any Lender that is an Issuing Lender hereunder may not be replaced in its capacity as an Issuing Lender at any time that it has a Letter of Credit outstanding hereunder unless arrangements reasonably satisfactory to such Issuing Lender have been made with respect to such outstanding Letters of Credit and (y) the Administrative Agent may not be replaced hereunder except in accordance with the terms of Section 8.05.

Section 2.27. Currency Equivalents.

(a) The Administrative Agent shall determine the Dollar Amount of (x) the LC Exposure in respect of Letters of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency based on the Exchange Rate (i) as of the end of each fiscal quarter of the Borrower and (ii) on or about the date of the related notice requesting the issuance of such Letter of Credit and (y) any other amount to be converted into Dollars in accordance with the provisions hereof at the time of such conversion.

(b) If, after giving effect to any such determination of a Dollar Amount, the LC Exposure under the LC Tranche Facility, the 3-Year Revolving Facility or the 5-Year Revolving Facility, as applicable, exceeds 105% of the LC Tranche Commitments, 3-Year LC Sublimit or the 5-Year LC Sublimit, as applicable, the Borrower shall, within five (5) Business Days of receipt of notice thereof from the Administrative Agent setting forth such calculation in reasonable detail, deposit cash collateral in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.02(j)(ii) in an amount equal to such excess.

Section 2.28. Increase in Commitments.

(a) Borrower Request. The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time, request an increase to the existing LC Tranche Commitments, the 3-Year Revolving Commitments and/or 5-Year Revolving Commitments (each, a “Revolving Commitment Increase” and the commitments thereunder, the “Incremental Commitments”) in an amount not less than (x) with respect to the LC Tranche Commitments, $1,000,000 and (y) with respect to the 3-Year Revolving Commitments and/or the 5-Year Revolving Commitments, $25,000,000, in each case, individually and not to exceed the applicable Incremental Amount from one or more Incremental Lenders (which may include any existing Lender) willing to provide such Incremental Commitments in their sole discretion; provided that each Incremental Lender (which is not an existing Lender) shall be subject to the approval requirements of Section 10.02. Each such notice shall specify (i) whether such Incremental Commitments are to be established under the LC Tranche Facility, the 3-Year Revolving Facility or the 5-Year Revolving Facility, (ii) the date (each, an “Increase Effective Date”) on which the Borrower proposes that the increased or new Revolving Commitments shall be effective, which shall be a date not less than ten (10) Business Days after the date on which such notice is delivered to the Administrative Agent and (iii) the identity of each Eligible Assignee to whom the Borrower proposes any portion of such Incremental Commitments be allocated and the amounts of such allocations (each provider of the Incremental Commitments referred to herein as an “Incremental Lender”); provided that any existing Lender approached to provide all or a portion of the increased or new Revolving Commitments may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such increased or new Revolving Commitment.

(b) Conditions. The Incremental Commitments shall become effective, as of such Increase Effective Date; provided that:

(i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than, with respect to Section 4.02(b), the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.04(b) and 3.06(a)) shall be satisfied;

63

#90303017v26

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from the Borrowings to be made on the Increase Effective Date;

(iv) (iii) the Borrower shall make any payments required pursuant to Section 2.15 in connection with any adjustment of Revolving Loans pursuant to Section 2.28(d); and

(v) (iv) after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase, the Total Revolving Commitment shall not in the aggregate exceed $3,650,000,000.

(c) Terms of Incremental Commitments. The terms and provisions of Revolving Loans made pursuant to the Incremental Commitments shall be identical to any Class of existing Revolving Commitments.

The Incremental Commitments shall be effected by a joinder agreement (the “Increase Joinder”) executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Incremental Lender making such Incremental Commitment, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to each of them. The Increase Joinder may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to effect the provisions of this Section 2.28. In addition, unless otherwise specifically provided herein, all references in Loan Documents to Revolving Loans shall be deemed, unless the context otherwise requires, to include references to Revolving Loans made pursuant to Incremental Commitments made pursuant to this Agreement.

(d) Adjustment of Revolving Loans. Each Incremental Lender that is acquiring a new or additional Revolving Commitment on the Increase Effective Date shall make a Revolving Loan under the applicable Revolving Facility, the proceeds of which will be used to prepay the Revolving Loans under such Revolving Facility (if any) of the other Lenders immediately prior to such Increase Effective Date so that, after giving effect thereto, the Revolving Loans outstanding under such Revolving Facility are held by the Lenders pro rata based on their Revolving Commitments under such Revolving Facility after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase. If there is a new Borrowing of Revolving Loans under such Revolving Facility on such Increase Effective Date, the Lenders under such Revolving Facility after giving effect to such Revolving Commitment Increase shall make such Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.01(a).

Section 2.29. Extension of Revolving Commitments.

(a) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time (but in no event more than once in any calendar year with respect to each Revolving Facility), request that all or a portion of the Revolving Commitments of a given Class be amended to extend the maturity date with respect to all or a portion of such Revolving Commitments by a period of one (1) year (each, an “Extension Request”), which such Extension Request shall include (i) the applicable Class of Revolving Commitments requested to be extended and (ii) the proposed date of effectiveness of such extension (the “Extension Date”). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender of such Class of such request, and each such Lender shall in turn, in its sole discretion, not later than thirty (30) days of receipt of such notification from the Administrative Agent, notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing as to whether such Lender will consent to such extension. If any Lender shall fail to notify the Administrative

64

#90303017v26

Agent and the Borrower in writing of its consent to any such request for extension of such maturity date within such thirty (30) day period, such Lender shall be deemed to be a Non-Extending Lender and only the Revolving Commitments of such Class of those Lenders which have responded affirmatively (each such Lender, an “Extending Lender”) shall be extended, subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions set forth in Section 2.29(b) (any such Revolving Commitments so extended, “Extended Revolving Credit Commitments”).

(b) The applicable Extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall become effective upon receipt by the Administrative Agent of counterparts of an Extension Agreement in substantially the form of Exhibit D hereto (the “Extension Agreement”) duly completed and signed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each of the Extending Lenders with respect to the applicable Extension Request; provided that:

(i) each of the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 (other than, with respect to Section 4.02(b), the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.04(b) and 3.06(a)) shall be satisfied;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or would result from such extension of Revolving Commitments; andprovided, for the avoidance of doubt, that no Default or Event of Default in respect of Section 6.03 shall have occurred and be continuing nor result from the making of such Borrowing on and as of the applicable Increase Effective Date, without giving effect to any Collateral Coverage Ratio Cure Period; and

(iii) (x) with respect to any Extension Request under the LC Tranche Facility, the extended maturity date thereunder shall not be a date later than the third anniversary of the applicable Extension Date, (y) with respect to any Extension Request under the 3-Year Revolving Facility, the extended maturity date thereunder shall not be a date later than the third anniversary of the applicable Extension Date and (yz) with respect to any Extension Request under the 5-Year Revolving Facility, the extended maturity date thereunder shall not be a date later than the fifth anniversary of the applicable Extension Date.

(c) No extension of any Class of Revolving Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.29 shall be legally binding on any party hereto unless and until such Extension Agreement is so executed and delivered by Lenders having greater than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class. The Borrower may obtain the signatures of Lenders having greater than 50% of the aggregate amount of the Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class by requiring any Lender that has failed to consent to such Extension Agreement (such Lender, a “Non-Extending Lender”) to assign its Revolving Loans and its Revolving Commitments of the applicable Class hereunder to one or more assignees reasonably acceptable to (x) the Administrative Agent (unless such assignee is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender) and (y) each Issuing Lender (unless such assignee is a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender); provided that: (i) all Obligations of the Borrower owing to such Non-Extending Lender of such Class being replaced shall be paid in full in same day funds to such Non-Extending Lender concurrently with such assignment, (ii) the replacement Lender shall purchase the foregoing by paying to such Non-Extending Lender a price equal to the principal amount thereof plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon and the replacement Lender or, at the option of the Borrower, the Borrower shall pay any amount required by Section 2.15, if applicable and (iii) the replacement Lender shall execute and deliver such Extension Agreement. No action by or consent of any Non-Extending Lender shall be necessary in connection with such assignment, which shall be immediately and automatically effective upon payment of such purchase price. In connection with any such assignment, the Borrower, Administrative Agent, such Non-Extending Lender and the replacement Lender shall otherwise comply with Section 10.02; provided that if such Non-Extending Lender does not comply with Section 10.02

65

#90303017v26

within five (5) Business Days after the Borrower’s request, compliance with Section 10.02 (but only on the part of the Non-Extending Lender) shall not be required to effect such assignment.

(d) If any Lender rejects, or is deemed to have rejected, the Borrower’s proposal to extend its Revolving Commitment of any Class, (i) this Agreement shall terminate on the Revolving Facility Maturity Date then in effect with respect to such Lender’s Revolving Commitment of such Class, (ii) the Borrower shall pay to such Lender on such Revolving Facility Maturity Date any amounts due and payable to such Lender with respect its Revolving Commitment of such Class on such date and (iii) the Borrower may, if it so elects, designate a Person not theretofore a Lender and reasonably acceptable the Administrative Agent (unless such Person is an Affiliate of a Lender) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) and each Issuing Lender (unless such Person is an Affiliate of a Lender) (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed) to become a Lender, or agree with an existing Lender that such Lender’s applicable Revolving Commitment shall be increased; provided that any designation or agreement may not increase the Total Revolving Commitment; provided, further, that any Non-Extending Lender (including any direct or indirect assignee of any Non-Extending Lender) may, with the written consent of the Borrower, elect at any time prior to the applicable Revolving Facility Maturity Date then applicable to its Revolving Commitments of such Class to consent to the Borrower’s prior Extension Request by delivering a written notice to such effect to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, and upon the receipt by the Borrower and the Administrative Agent of such notice, the applicable Revolving Facility Maturity Date of each such Non-Extending Lender shall be extended to the date indicated in the applicable Extension Request and such Non-Extending Lender shall be deemed to be an Extending Lender for all purposes hereunder. On the date of termination of any Lender’s Revolving Commitment of the applicable Class as contemplated by this subsection (d), the respective participations of the other Lenders in all outstanding Letters of Credit under the applicable Class shall be redetermined on the basis of their respective Revolving Commitments with respect to such Class after giving effect to such termination, and the participation therein of the Lender whose Revolving Commitment of the applicable Class is terminated shall terminate; provided that the Borrower shall, if and to the extent necessary to permit such redetermination of participations in Letters of Credit under the applicable Revolving Facility within the limits of the Revolving Commitments which are not terminated, prepay on such date a portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans under the applicable Revolving Facility, and such redetermination and termination of participations in outstanding Letters of Credit shall be conditioned upon its having done so.

(e) The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the effectiveness of each Extension Agreement pursuant to this Section 2.29.

Each Lender that sells a participation, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Revolving 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 Revolving Commitments, Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under this Agreement or any Loan Document) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Revolving Commitment, Revolving Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat each person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary.

(ii) A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 2.16 than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant. A Participant that would be a Foreign Lender if it were a Lender shall not be entitled to the benefits of Section 2.16 unless such Participant agrees, for the benefit of the Borrower, to comply with Sections 2.16(f), 2.16(g), 2.16(h) and 2.18 as though it were a Lender.

(e) Any Lender may 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 without limitation any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or any central bank having jurisdiction over such Lender, and this Section 10.02 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.

(f) Any Lender may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 10.02, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, any information relating to the Borrower furnished to such Lender by or on behalf of the Borrower; provided that prior to any such disclosure, each such assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant are advised of and agree to be bound by either the provisions of Section 10.03 or other provisions at least as restrictive as Section 10.03.

(a)(i) The Borrower shall pay or reimburse: (b) all reasonable fees and reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Arrangers (limited in the case of legal fees and expenses, to the reasonable fees, disbursements and other charges of Simpson Thacher & Bartlett LLP, as counsel to the Administrative Agent) associated with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, and the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of the Loan Documents and (in the case of the Administrative Agent) any amendments, modifications or waivers of the provisions hereof (whether or not the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby shall be consummated); and (c) all fees and out-of-pocket expenses of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders (limited in the case of legal fees and expenses, to one (1) outside counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, taken as a whole (and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, an additional counsel to all such similarly situated affected parties)) in connection with the enforcement of the Loan Documents.

For the avoidance of doubt, no Indemnitee shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by others of information or other materials obtained through electronic, telecommunications or other information transmission systems, except to the extent any such damages are found by a final non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction to arise from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee. This Section 10.04(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than Taxes that represent losses or damages arising from any non-Tax claim.

(c) To the extent that the Borrower fails to pay any amount required to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent or an Issuing Lender under paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section 10.04, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender, as the case may be, such portion of the unpaid amount equal to such Lender’s Aggregate Exposure Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought); provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the applicable Issuing Lender in its capacity as such.

(d) To the extent permitted by applicable law, neither the Borrower nor any Indemnitee shall have any liability for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the Transactions, any Revolving Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of the proceeds thereof (other than in respect of such damages incurred or paid by an Indemnitee to a third party).

No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent or any of the Lenders to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right, power or remedy hereunder or any of the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right, power or remedy preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or remedy. All remedies hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any other remedies provided by law.

Section 10.07. Extension of Maturity. Should any payment of principal of or interest or any other amount due hereunder become due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the maturity thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day and, in the case of principal, interest shall be payable thereon at the rate herein specified during such extension.

(c) No notice to or demand on the Borrower shall entitle the Borrower to any other or further notice or demand in the same, similar or other circumstances.

100

TERMS OF 2020 RESTRICTED STOCK AWARD¹

Participants: All members of Delta’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) who are not employees of Delta (“Non-Employee Directors”), which includes the Chairman of the Board (the “Chairman”). These directors are:

Francis S. Blake (Chairman)	Jeanne P. Jackson
Ashton B. Carter	George N. Mattson
David G. DeWalt	Sergio A. L. Rial
William H. Easter III	David S. Taylor
Michael P. Huerta	Kathy N. Waller

Type of Award: Restricted Stock, as defined and granted under the Delta Air Lines, Inc. Performance Compensation Plan (the “Performance Compensation Plan”).

Grant Date: June 18, 2020

Number of

Shares: The number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to each Non-Employee Director other than the Chairman equals the result of the following formula: $175,000 divided by Y, where

Y = the closing price of Delta Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, on the New York Stock Exchange on the Grant Date.

The number of shares of Restricted Stock granted to the Chairman equals the result of the following formula: $305,000 divided by Y.

Partial Shares: Any partial shares resulting from the above formula will be ignored and the aggregate shares of Restricted Stock for each Non-Employee Director will be rounded up to the nearest whole ten shares.

Vesting: Each grant awarded to a Non-Employee Director under the terms of this Attachment A (a “2020 Grant”) will vest (the “Vesting Date”) on the earlier of (1) June 18, 2021 and (2) the date of Delta’s 2021 Annual Meeting of Stockholders, subject to such Non-Employee Director’s continued service as a member of the Board on the Vesting Date.

¹In accordance with these terms, each Non-Employee Director other than the Chairman of the Board received 5,690 shares of Restricted Stock on June 18, 2020. This is equal to $175,000 divided by $30.79 (the closing price of Delta Common Stock on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) on June 18, 2020), rounded up to the nearest whole ten shares. The Chairman of the Board received 9,910 shares of Restricted Stock on June 18, 2020. This is equal to $305,000 divided by $30.79 (the closing price of Delta Common Stock on the NYSE on June 18, 2020), rounded up to the nearest whole ten shares.

Accelerated

Vesting: Notwithstanding the foregoing, accelerated vesting will occur prior to the Vesting Date as follows: individual 2020 Grants will immediately vest on the date such Non-Employee Director ceases to be a member of the Board due to death, Disability or Retirement. For purposes of the 2020 Grant, (1) “Disability” means the Non-Employee Director’s inability to perform his or her duties as a member of the Board for a period of 180 or more days as a result of a demonstrable injury or disease and (2) “Retirement” means retiring from the Board (i) at or after age 52 with at least ten years of service as a director; (ii) at or after age 68 with at least five years of service as a director; or (iii) at the Non-Employee Director’s mandatory retirement date.

Forfeiture: Except as expressly set forth above, a Non-Employee Director will immediately forfeit any unvested Restricted Stock on the date such Non-Employee Director ceases to be a member of the Board for any reason, other than due to death, Disability or Retirement.

Dividends: In the event a cash dividend is paid with respect to shares of Delta Common Stock at a time during which the 2020 Grant is unvested, the Non-Employee Director will be eligible to receive the dividend when the 2020 Grant vests.

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Delta Air Lines, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Consistent with these requirements, this Form 10-Q does not include all the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As a result, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Management believes the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented.

Due to severe impacts from the global COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, seasonal variations in the demand for air travel, the volatility of aircraft fuel prices and other factors, operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

We reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts disclosed are stated before consideration of income taxes.

Recent Accounting Standards

Credit Losses. In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." Under this ASU, an entity is required to utilize an "expected credit loss model" on certain financial instruments, including trade and financing receivables. This model requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information and requires an entity to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020 and due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recorded reserves on certain receivables, which are discussed further in Note 5, "Investments."

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic

IMPACT OF THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC

The unprecedented and rapid spread of COVID-19 and the related travel restrictions and social distancing measures implemented throughout the world have significantly reduced demand for air travel. After initially impacting our service to China beginning in January, the spread of the virus and the resulting global pandemic next affected the majority of our international network and ultimately has significantly affected our domestic network. Beginning in March, large public events were cancelled, governmental authorities began imposing restrictions on non-essential activities, businesses suspended travel and popular leisure destinations temporarily closed to visitors. Certain countries that are key markets for our business have imposed bans on international travelers for specified periods or indefinitely.

As a result, demand for travel declined at a rapid pace and has remained depressed, which has had an unprecedented and materially adverse impact on our revenues and financial position. Although demand improved through the quarter, it remains significantly below the prior year. The exact timing and pace of the recovery are uncertain as certain markets have reopened, some of which have since experienced a resurgence of COVID-19 cases, while others, particularly international markets, remain closed or are enforcing extended quarantines for most U.S. residents. Additionally, some states have instituted travel restrictions or advisories for travelers from other states. Our forecasted expense and liquidity management initiatives may be modified as the demand environment evolves.

In response to these developments, beginning in March and continuing throughout the June 2020 quarter, we have implemented enhanced measures focusing on the safety of our customers and employees, while at the same time seeking to mitigate the impact on our financial position and operations.

Taking Care of our Customers and Employees. The safety of our customers and employees is our primary focus. As the COVID-19 pandemic has progressed, we have taken numerous steps to help promote the safety of our customers and employees on the ground and in the air in keeping with current health-expert recommendations, including:

•Adopting new cleaning procedures on all flights, including disinfectant electrostatic spraying on aircraft and sanitizing high-touch areas like tray tables, entertainment screens, armrests and seat-back pockets before each flight.

•Taking steps to help employees and customers practice social distancing and promote safety, including:

◦Creating a Global Cleanliness Division to ensure a consistently safe and sanitized experience across our facilities and aircraft.

◦Requiring all customers and customer-facing employees to wear masks.

◦Blocking middle seats and capping load factor at 60% throughout our aircraft through at least September 30, 2020.

◦Modifying our boarding and deplaning processes, while providing food and beverage service that is designed to reduce physical touch points.

◦Installing plexiglass shields at all Delta check-in counters, Delta Sky Clubs and gate counters across the U.S. as well as adding social distance markers in the check-in lobby, Delta Sky Clubs, at the gate and throughout the jetbridge.

◦Implementing significant workforce social distancing and protection measures, including reconfiguring call center spaces to promote social distancing, increasing cleaning and disinfecting of our facilities and having virtually all employees who can telecommute do so.

•Giving customers flexibility to plan, re-book and travel including extending expiration on travel credits through September 2022. Additionally, we are extending 2020 Medallion Status an additional year, rolling Medallion Qualification Miles into 2021 and extending Delta SkyMiles American Express Card benefits and Delta Sky Club memberships.

•Offering pay protection to employees who have been diagnosed with COVID-19, who must quarantine due to exposure to COVID-19 or who have self-identified as being at high-risk for illness from COVID-19 according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention ("CDC") guidelines and do not have the ability to telecommute (through July 31 for high-risk individuals).

•Beginning in June 2020, onsite COVID-19 testing became available for employees in select Delta hubs. Testing began in our Atlanta and Minneapolis hubs and is expanding through the September 2020 quarter, with the expectation that all employees will be tested.

Capacity Reductions. Beginning in the second half of March, we experienced a precipitous decrease in demand as COVID-19 spread throughout the world. We significantly reduced our system capacity to a level that maintained essential services to align capacity with expected demand. For the June 2020 quarter, system capacity was reduced 85% compared to the June 2019 quarter, with international capacity reduced by 94% and domestic flying reduced by 80%. For the September 2020 quarter, system capacity is expected to be down approximately 60% compared to the September 2019 quarter, with international capacity to be reduced approximately 80% and domestic capacity to be reduced approximately 50%. As a result of reduced demand expectations and lower capacity in the September 2020 quarter and beyond, we have parked approximately 50% of our fleet, including the permanent retirement of certain aircraft, as discussed further below.

Expense Management. In response to the reduction in revenue, we have implemented, and will continue to implement, cost saving initiatives, including:

•Reducing capacity as described above to align with expected demand, which has resulted in parking approximately 600 aircraft as of June 30, 2020. In the June 2020 quarter we retired our MD-90 fleet, seven 767-300ER aircraft and 10 A320 aircraft and will retire our 777 and 737-700 fleets by October 2020. These retirement decisions follow the March 2020 quarter decision to accelerate the retirement of our MD-88 fleet from December 2020 to June 2020.

•Consolidating our footprint at our airport facilities, including temporarily closing most Delta Sky Clubs.

•Reducing employee-related costs, including:

◦Voluntary unpaid leaves of 30 days to 12 months offered to most employees. Approximately 45,000 of our employees have taken or have volunteered to take voluntary leaves.

◦Offering employees early retirement and voluntary separation programs, with most departures scheduled for August 1, 2020. The enrollment period for these programs will close in July 2020. See Note 8, "Employee Benefit Plans," for additional information.

▪Pilots are also eligible for an early retirement program, however, separation dates will be based on training and staffing requirements.

◦Salary reductions of 50% for our officers and, with respect to our director level employees through the June 2020 quarter, 25%. Beginning in the September 2020 quarter, a 25% reduction in work hours has been implemented for our director level employees, consistent with the 25% reduction in work hours for all other management and most front-line employee work groups.

◦Instituting a company-wide hiring freeze.

•Delaying non-essential maintenance projects and eliminating nearly all other discretionary spending.

Balance Sheet, Cash Flow and Liquidity. Our cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities balance ("liquidity") as of June 30, 2020 was $15.7 billion as a result of the following actions to increase liquidity and strength our financial position during the six months ended June 30, 2020:

•Reducing planned capital expenditures by approximately $3.5 billion for the year, including working with original equipment manufacturers ("OEM") to optimize the timing of our future aircraft deliveries, delaying aircraft modifications and postponing certain information technology initiatives and replacement of ground equipment.

•Receiving $4.9 billion as part of the CARES Act payroll support program as described below.

•Obtaining financing through the following actions:

◦Drawing $3.0 billion from our previously undrawn revolving credit facilities. We have extended the maturity for $1.3 billion of these borrowings from April 2021 to April 2022 and also secured $2.7 billion of these borrowings with our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets.

◦Entering into a $3.0 billion 364-day secured term loan facility.

◦Entering into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions as described below.

◦Issuing $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entering into a $1.5 billion term loan, both of which are secured by certain slots, gates and routes.

◦Issuing $1.3 billion of unsecured notes.

◦Completing $1.4 billion in transactions secured by aircraft, including EETC issuances and aircraft loans.

•Amending our credit facilities to replace fixed charge coverage ratio covenants with liquidity-based covenants.

•Suspending share repurchases and dividends.

•Postponing $500 million of planned voluntary pension funding.

We continue to evaluate leveraging our unencumbered assets to pursue future financing opportunities and our possible participation in the CARES Act loan program, discussed below.

In response to the impact that the demand environment has had on our financial condition, our credit rating has been downgraded by Standard & Poor's to BB in March 2020 and by Fitch to BB+ in April 2020. Our credit rating from Moody's remains Baa3.

Our primary credit facilities have various financial and other covenants that require us to maintain a minimum liquidity ratio and a minimum collateral coverage ratio. The minimum liquidity ratio replaced the fixed charge coverage ratio previously in the facilities as part of the amendments we completed in June 2020. We expect to remain in compliance with these and other covenants in our debt agreements.

See Note 7, "Debt," and the sale-leaseback transactions section in this footnote for more information on our financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Valuation of Goodwill and Indefinite-Lived Intangibles

We apply a fair value-based impairment test to the carrying value of goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets on an annual basis (as of October 1) and, if certain events or circumstances indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred, on an interim basis. Our December 2019 quarter quantitative impairment tests of goodwill and intangibles concluded that there was no indication of impairment as the fair value exceeded our carrying value:

	Carrying Value at				Fair Value Excess at 2019 Testing Date
(in millions)	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Goodwill(1)	$	9,753	$	9,781	234%
International routes and slots	2,583		2,583		15% to 29%
Airline alliances(2)	1,863		1,005		67% to 576%
Delta tradename	850		850		185%
Domestic slots	622		622		61% to 181%
Total	$	15,671	$	14,841

⁽¹⁾ The reduction in goodwill relates to the combination of Delta Private Jets with Wheels Up in the March 2020 quarter. See Note 5, "Investments," for more information on this transaction.

⁽²⁾ As part of our strategic alliance with and investment in LATAM Airlines Group S.A. ("LATAM"), we have recorded an alliance-related indefinite-lived intangible asset of $1.2 billion, which was not reflected in the 2019 quantitative impairment assessment. See Note 5, "Investments," for more information on this transaction.

Despite the significant excess fair value identified in our 2019 impairment assessment, we determined that the reduced cash flow projections and the significant decline in Delta's market capitalization as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic indicate that an impairment loss may have been incurred. Therefore, we qualitatively assessed whether it was more likely than not that the goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets were impaired as of June 30, 2020. We reviewed our previous forecasts and assumptions based on our current projections that are subject to various risks and uncertainties, including: (1) forecasted revenues, expenses and cash flows, including the duration and extent of impact to our business and our alliance partners from the COVID-19 pandemic, (2) current discount rates, (3) the reduction in Delta's market capitalization, (4) observable market transactions, (5) changes to the regulatory environment and (6) the nature and amount of government support that has been and is expected to be provided in the future.

Based on our interim impairment assessment as of June 30, 2020, we have determined that our goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are not impaired. However, we are unable to predict how long these conditions will persist, what additional measures may be introduced by governments or private parties or what effect any such additional measures may have on air travel and our business. Any measure that requires or encourages potential travelers to stay in their homes, engage in social distancing or avoid larger gatherings of people is highly likely to be harmful to the air travel industry in general, and consequently our business. We expect any traveler wariness of airports and commercial aircraft to have a similar effect.

Valuation of Long-Lived Assets

Our flight equipment and other long-lived assets, which are classified as property and equipment, net on our Consolidated Balance Sheet ("balance sheet"), have a recorded value of $28.5 billion at June 30, 2020. We review flight equipment and other long-lived assets used in operations for impairment losses when events and circumstances indicate the assets may be impaired.

As part of our capacity reductions related to the negative effect on our business from the COVID-19 pandemic, we have removed approximately 600 aircraft from active service as of June 30, 2020. Other than the MD-88, MD-90, 777 and 737-700 fleets and certain of our 767-300ER and A320 aircraft, which we have retired or are in the process of retiring, the aircraft removed from service are being temporarily parked.

In the March 2020 quarter we recorded an impairment charge of $22 million related to the MD-88 fleet. In the June 2020 quarter we recorded impairment charges of $1.4 billion related to the 777 fleet, $330 million related to the MD-90 fleet, $220 million related to the 737-700 fleet, $180 million related to the seven retired 767-300ER aircraft and $60 million related to the ten retired A320 aircraft in restructuring charges in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive (Loss) Income ("income statement"). These impairment charges were calculated using Level 3 fair value inputs based primarily upon forecasted future cash flows, recent market transactions, published pricing guides and our assessment of existing market conditions based on industry knowledge. Following the impairment charges, the remaining cumulative net book value for these aircraft is $370 million.

To determine whether impairments exist for active and temporarily parked aircraft, we group assets at the fleet-type level or at the contract level for aircraft operated by regional carriers (i.e., the lowest level for which there are identifiable cash flows) and then estimate future cash flows based on projections of capacity, passenger mile yield, fuel and labor costs and other relevant factors. Given the substantial reduction in our active aircraft and diminished projections of future cash flows in the near term, we evaluated the remainder of our fleet and determined that only the fleet-types discussed above were impaired as the future cash flows from operation of the fleet through the respective retirement dates exceeded the carrying value. As we obtain greater clarity about the duration and extent of reduced demand and potentially execute further capacity adjustments, we will continue to evaluate our current fleet compared to network requirements and may decide to permanently retire additional aircraft.

See Note 5, "Investments," for information on the valuation of our equity investments.

CARES Act

On March 27, 2020, President Trump signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act ("CARES Act") into law. The CARES Act is a relief package intended to assist many aspects of the American economy, including providing the airline industry with up to $25 billion in grants to be used for employee wages, salaries and benefits.

In April 2020, we entered into an agreement with the U.S. Department of the Treasury to receive $5.4 billion in emergency relief through the CARES Act payroll support program to be paid in installments through July 2020. The relief payments are conditioned on our agreement to refrain from conducting involuntary employee layoffs or furloughs through September 30, 2020. Other conditions include prohibitions on share repurchases and dividends through September 30, 2021, continuing essential air service as directed by the U.S. Department of Transportation and certain limitations on executive compensation. The relief payments include $3.8 billion in a grant and $1.6 billion in an unsecured 10-year low interest loan. The loan bears interest at an annual rate of 1.00% for the first five years (through April 2025) and the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") plus 2.00% in the final five years. In return, we agreed to issue to the U.S. Department of the Treasury warrants to acquire over 6.5 million shares of Delta common stock. These warrants have an exercise price of $24.39 per share and a five-year term.

The relative fair value of the warrants is recorded within stockholder's equity and as a discount reducing the carrying value of the loan which will be amortized as interest expense in our income statement over the term of the loan. The proceeds of the grant are recorded in cash and cash equivalents when received and will be recognized as contra-expense in CARES Act grant recognition in our income statement over the periods that the funds are intended to compensate, which is expected to be through the end of 2020.

In the June 2020 quarter, we received $4.9 billion under the CARES Act payroll support program, which consists of $3.5 billion in a grant and $1.4 billion in an unsecured loan. The remaining amount will be received in July 2020. As of June 30, 2020, we recognized $1.3 billion of the grant as contra-expense with the remaining $2.2 billion recorded as a deferred contra-expense in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet. We expect to recognize the remainder of the grant proceeds from the CARES Act payroll support program as contra-expense by the end of 2020. See Note 7, "Debt," for further discussion of the unsecured loans and warrants to acquire Delta shares issued under the CARES Act payroll support program.

The CARES Act also provides for up to $25 billion in secured loans to the airline industry. We are eligible and have entered into a non-binding letter of intent to the U.S. Department of the Treasury for $4.6 billion under the loan program. We have not decided if we will participate, and we have until September 30, 2020 to decide whether to participate in this program.

Finally, the CARES Act also provides for deferred payment of the employer portion of social security taxes through the end of 2020, with 50% of the deferred amount due December 31, 2021 and the remaining 50% due December 31, 2022. This is expected to provide us with approximately $200 million of additional liquidity during the current year.

Sale-Leaseback Transactions

In the June 2020 quarter, we entered into $2.8 billion of sale-leaseback transactions for 85 aircraft including 25 A321-200s, 25 A220-100s, 23 CRJ-900s, 10 737-900ERs and two A330-900s. Of these transactions, 74 did not qualify as a sale as they are finance leases or have an option to repurchase at a stated price. The assets associated with these transactions remain on our balance sheet within property and equipment, net and we recorded the related liabilities under the lease. These liabilities are classified within other accrued or other noncurrent liabilities on our balance sheet. These transactions are treated as financing inflows on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows ("cash flows statement").

The other 11 transactions qualified as sales, generating an immaterial loss, and the associated assets were removed from our balance sheet within property and equipment, net and recorded within operating lease right-of-use assets. The liabilities are recorded within current maturities of operating leases and noncurrent operating leases on our balance sheet. These transactions are treated as investing cash inflows on the cash flows statement.

REVENUE RECOGNITION

Passenger Revenue

Passenger revenue is primarily composed of passenger ticket sales, loyalty travel awards and travel-related services performed in conjunction with a passenger’s flight.

	Three Months Ended June 30,				Six Months Ended June 30,
(in millions)	2020		2019		2020		2019

Travel-related services	65		648		581		1,223
Total passenger revenue	$	678	$	11,368	$	8,247	$	20,622

Ticket. We defer sales of passenger tickets to be flown by us or that we sell on behalf of other airlines in air traffic liability. Passenger revenue is recognized when we provide transportation or when ticket breakage occurs. For tickets that we sell on behalf of other airlines, we reduce the air traffic liability when consideration is remitted to those airlines. The air traffic liability primarily includes sales of passenger tickets to be flown in the future, as well as credits which can be applied as payment toward the cost of a ticket. The credits are typically issued as a result of ticket cancellations prior to their expiration dates.

Prior to April 2020, passenger tickets sold and credits issued were generally valid for one year from the date of original ticket issuance. In April 2020, we announced that credits issued for cancelled travel in March through September 2020 will have an extended expiration date through September 2022. This change shifted $315 million of our air traffic liability to noncurrent in the June 2020 quarter, which represents our current estimate of tickets to be flown, as well as credits to be used, beyond one year. We will continue to monitor our customers' travel behavior and may adjust our estimates in the future.

The air traffic liability typically increases during the winter and spring months as advanced ticket sales grow prior to the summer peak travel season and decreases during the summer and fall months. However, the current reduction in demand for air travel due to the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in an unprecedented low level of advance bookings and the associated cash received. We also began experiencing significant ticket cancellations in the second half of March, which has led to issuance of refunds to customers, while the remainder of cancellations have been rebooked on future flights or received credits in lieu of cash refunds. The total value of refunds, excluding taxes and related fees, issued to customers during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was approximately $1.3 billion and $2.1 billion, respectively.

We recognized approximately $2.9 billion in passenger revenue during the six months ended June 30, 2020 that was recorded in our air traffic liability balance at December 31, 2019. Due to the uncertainty around the return of demand for air travel, we are unable to estimate the amount of the December 31, 2019 air traffic liability that will be recognized in earnings compared to amounts that will be refunded to customers or issued as a credit for future travel through the end of 2020.

Loyalty Program. Our SkyMiles loyalty program generates customer loyalty by rewarding customers with incentives to travel on Delta. This program allows customers to earn mileage credits ("miles") by flying on Delta, Delta Connection and other airlines that participate in the loyalty program. When traveling, customers earn redeemable miles based on the passenger's loyalty program status and ticket price. Customers can also earn miles through participating companies such as credit card companies, hotels, car rental agencies and ridesharing companies. Miles are redeemable by customers in future periods for air travel on Delta and other participating airlines, membership in our Sky Club and other program awards. To facilitate transactions with participating companies, we sell miles to non-airline businesses, customers and other airlines. Our most significant contract to sell miles relates to our co-brand credit card relationship with American Express. During the six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, total cash sales from marketing agreements related to our loyalty program were $1.5 billion and $2.0 billion, respectively, which are allocated to travel and other performance obligations.

Current Activity of the Loyalty Program. Miles are combined in one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. As such, the revenue is comprised of miles that were part of the loyalty program deferred revenue balance at the beginning of the period as well as miles that were issued during the period.

The table below presents the activity of the current and noncurrent loyalty program deferred revenue and includes miles earned through travel and miles sold to participating companies, which are primarily through marketing agreements.

(in millions)	2020		2019
Balance at January 1	$	6,728	$	6,641
Miles earned	872		1,542
Travel miles redeemed	(588)		(1,443)
Non-travel miles redeemed	(31)		(86)
Balance at June 30	$	6,981	$	6,654

The timing of mile redemptions can vary widely; however, the majority of new miles have historically been redeemed within two years. The loyalty program deferred revenue classified as a current liability represents our current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized in the next 12 months based on projected redemptions, while the balance classified as a noncurrent liability represents our current estimate of revenue expected to be recognized beyond 12 months. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, a larger portion of mile redemptions is projected to occur beyond 12 months and is therefore reflected as a noncurrent liability as of June 30, 2020. We will continue to monitor redemptions as the situation evolves.

Revenue by Geographic Region

Operating revenue for the airline segment is recognized in a specific geographic region based on the origin, flight path and destination of each flight segment. The majority of the revenues of the refinery, consisting of fuel sales to the airline, have been eliminated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The remaining operating revenue for the refinery segment is included in the domestic region. Our passenger and operating revenue by geographic region is summarized in the following tables:

Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash Equivalents. Cash equivalents generally consist of money market funds. Restricted cash equivalents generally consist of money market funds, time deposits, commercial paper and negotiable certificates of deposit, which primarily relate to proceeds from debt issued to finance a portion of the construction costs for our new terminal facilities at New York's LaGuardia Airport. The fair value of these cash equivalents is based on a market approach using prices generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable assets.

Short-Term Investments. The fair values of short-term investments are based on a market approach using industry standard valuation techniques that incorporate observable inputs such as quoted market prices, interest rates, benchmark curves, credit ratings of the security and other observable information.

Long-Term Investments. Our long-term investments that are measured at fair value primarily consist of equity investments, which are valued based on market prices or other observable transactions and inputs, and are recorded in equity investments on our balance sheet. As of June 30, 2020, our equity investment in Wheels Up is classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy as its equity is not traded on a public exchange and our equity investments in LATAM and Grupo Aeroméxico are classified as Level 3 investments due to having recently entered into bankruptcy proceedings. See Note 5, "Investments," for further information on our equity investments.

Hedge Derivatives. A portion of our derivative contracts are negotiated over-the-counter with counterparties without going through a public exchange. Accordingly, our fair value assessments give consideration to the risk of counterparty default (as well as our own credit risk). Such contracts are classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. The remainder of our hedge contracts are comprised of futures contracts, which are traded on a public exchange. These contracts are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy.

•Fuel Hedge Contracts. Our fuel hedge portfolio consists of options, swaps and futures. Option and swap contracts are valued under income approaches using option pricing models and discounted cash flow models, respectively, based on data either readily observable in public markets, derived from public markets or provided by counterparties who regularly trade in public markets. Futures contracts and options on futures contracts are traded on a public exchange and valued based on quoted market prices.

•Interest Rate Contracts. Our interest rate derivatives are swap contracts, which are valued based on data readily observable in public markets.

•Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts. Our foreign currency derivatives consist of forward contracts and are valued based on data readily observable in public markets.

INVESTMENTS

Short-Term Investments

At June 30, 2020, the estimated fair value of our short-term investments was $4.3 billion, which approximates cost. These investments are expected to mature in one year or less. Actual maturities may differ from contractual maturities because certain issuers of the securities may have the right to retire certain of our investments without prepayment penalties.

Long-Term Investments

We have developed strategic relationships with a number of airlines and airline services companies through equity investments and other forms of cooperation and support. Our equity investments reinforce our commitment to these relationships and provide us with the ability to participate in strategic decision-making, often through representation on the board of directors of the investee.

LATAM. In January 2020, we acquired 20% of the shares of LATAM for $1.9 billion, or $16 per share, through a tender offer as part of our plan to enter into a strategic alliance with LATAM. In addition, to support the establishment of the strategic alliance, we agreed to make transition payments to LATAM totaling $350 million, $200 million of which was disbursed in 2019. The remaining $150 million will be disbursed in equal quarterly payments through 2021, beginning in the September 2020 quarter. As part of our planned strategic alliance with LATAM, we also agreed to acquire four A350 aircraft from LATAM and assumed ten of LATAM's A350 purchase commitments with Airbus for deliveries through 2025.

The total consideration of $2.3 billion, including the tender offer and the transition payments, was allocated in the March 2020 quarter to the shares ($1.1 billion) and to the alliance-related indefinite-lived intangible asset ($1.2 billion) based on their relative fair values. We expect to record the ten aircraft at cost upon delivery.

In May 2020, LATAM filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States bankruptcy code and, as part of LATAM's reorganization, we have terminated the purchase agreement for the four A350 aircraft from LATAM for a fee of $62 million, which is recorded in restructuring charges in our income statement. While our ownership interest remains at 20%, we no longer have significant influence over LATAM and have discontinued accounting for the investment under the equity method in the June 2020 quarter. This investment is now accounted for at fair value.

During the June 2020 quarter, we eliminated our investment basis in LATAM and recorded expense of $1.1 billion in impairments and equity method losses within non-operating expenses in our income statement. This charge reflects the recognition of both our 20% share of LATAM's March 2020 quarter losses (due to the timing of information available from LATAM) and the decline in our expected realizable value for LATAM's shares following its bankruptcy filing. The impairment charge for our investment in LATAM was calculated using Level 3 fair value inputs. We expect that no more than an immaterial amount will be distributed to current equity holders following the settlement of unsecured claims upon LATAM's emergence from bankruptcy.

In May 2020, we signed a trans-American joint venture agreement with LATAM that, subject to regulatory approvals, will combine our highly complementary route networks between North and South America, with the goal of providing customers with a seamless travel experience and industry-leading connectivity. In addition, we believe LATAM intends to request that the bankruptcy court approve the assumption of our strategic partnership agreement, which contributes to supporting the value of our $1.2 billion alliance-related indefinite-lived intangible asset. We continue to believe this alliance will generate growth opportunities, building upon Delta's and LATAM's global footprint and joint ventures. See Note 2, "Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic," for further discussion of our qualitative impairment assessment of indefinite-lived intangible assets.

Grupo Aeroméxico. In June 2020, Grupo Aeroméxico filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States bankruptcy code. We have a non-controlling 51% ownership interest in Grupo Aeroméxico, however Grupo Aeroméxico's corporate bylaws (as authorized by the Mexican Foreign Investment Commission) limit our voting interest to a maximum of 49%. Therefore, we accounted for our investment under the equity method prior to Grupo Aeroméxico's bankruptcy filing.

As a result of Grupo Aeroméxico's bankruptcy filing, while our ownership interest has not changed, we no longer have significant influence over Grupo Aeroméxico and have discontinued accounting for the investment under the equity method in the June 2020 quarter. This investment is now accounted for at fair value.

During the June 2020 quarter, we eliminated our investment basis in Grupo Aeroméxico and recorded expense of $770 million in impairments and equity method losses within non-operating expenses in our income statement. This charge reflects the recognition of both our 51% share of Grupo Aeroméxico's June 2020 quarter losses and the decline in our expected realizable value for Grupo Aeroméxico's shares following its bankruptcy filing. The impairment charge for our investment in Grupo Aeroméxico was calculated using Level 3 fair value inputs. We expect that no more than an immaterial amount will be distributed to current equity holders following the settlement of unsecured claims upon Grupo Aeroméxico's emergence from bankruptcy.

In addition, in its bankruptcy proceeding, Grupo Aeroméxico has requested the bankruptcy court's approval to assume our joint cooperation agreement.

GOL. In 2019, we sold our ownership stake of GOL Linhas Aéreas Inteligentes, the parent company of VRG Linhas Aéreas (operating as GOL), and have ended our commercial agreements. Additionally, GOL has a $300 million five-year term loan facility with third parties maturing in August 2020, which we have guaranteed. Based on market value at June 30, 2020, approximately 60% of our guaranty is secured by GOL's ownership interest in Smiles, GOL's publicly traded loyalty program. Because GOL remains in compliance with the terms of its loan facility, we have not recorded a liability for the full value of the term loan on our balance sheet as of June 30, 2020. However, as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to impact the global economy, there is an increased risk related to GOL's ability to repay this term loan, which may require our performance under this guaranty. Therefore, we recorded an immaterial reserve in other accrued liabilities on our balance sheet and restructuring charges in our income statement related to the decline in value of our security interest in GOL's Smiles shares compared to our guaranty of GOL's term loan.

Fair Value Investments

We account for the following investments at fair value on a recurring basis with adjustments to fair value recognized in gain/(loss) on investments within non-operating expense in our income statement. We recorded gains of $8 million and losses of $104 million on our fair value investments during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. These results were driven by changes in stock prices, foreign currency fluctuations and other valuation techniques for investments in companies without publicly-traded shares.

Wheels Up. In January 2020, we combined Delta Private Jets, our wholly owned subsidiary which provides private jet operations, with Wheels Up. Upon closing, we received a 27% equity stake in Wheels Up which we have elected to record using the fair value option as this is expected to better reflect the economics of our ownership interest. This transaction resulted in a gain of $240 million which was recorded within miscellaneous, net in our income statement in the March 2020 quarter.

Equity Method Investments

We account for the investments listed below under the equity method of accounting.

	Ownership Interest				Carrying Value
(in millions)	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019		June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Virgin Atlantic (1)	49	%	49	%	$	—	$	375
Unifi (formerly AirCo)	49	%	49	%	143		142

⁽¹⁾We have a non-controlling equity stake in Virgin Atlantic Limited, the parent company of Virgin Atlantic Airways, and similar non-controlling interests in certain affiliated Virgin Atlantic companies.

Virgin Atlantic. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resulting travel restrictions, Virgin Atlantic has incurred significant losses during 2020. In recording our 49% share in Virgin Atlantic's results during the six months ended June 30, 2020 and based on our review of Virgin Atlantic's financial projections, we have reduced the basis in our investment to zero and recorded expense of $200 million in impairments and equity method losses within non-operating expense in our income statement. Under the equity method of accounting, we will track our share of Virgin Atlantic's future losses, but will not reflect our share of their results in our financial statements until such time that our share of their earnings eliminates the losses beyond our basis in the investment. We continue to monitor and support Virgin Atlantic's ongoing restructuring efforts.

Effective January 2020, we combined our separate transatlantic joint venture agreements with Air France-KLM and Virgin Atlantic into a single three-party transatlantic joint venture. Under the new agreement, certain measurement thresholds were reset from the previous joint venture with Virgin Atlantic, reducing the value we would have received over the original term. In consideration for this reduced value, we entered into a transition agreement with Virgin Atlantic, which would have resulted in payments to us in future periods. However, as of June 30, 2020, based on our assessment of collectibility, we do not have any assets or liabilities recorded on our balance sheet related to this transition agreement.

Unifi. Our share of Unifi's financial results is recorded in contracted services in our income statement as this entity is integral to the operations of our business. Based on discussions with Unifi's management and review of their liquidity and financial projections, we do not believe our investment is other than temporarily impaired as we have the intent and ability to retain this investment for a period of time sufficient to allow for anticipated recovery in value. However, we will continue to monitor the continuing effects of the pandemic and self-help measures Unifi executes.

Receivables from Investees and Business Partners

Based on our assessment of collectibility, we have recorded $98 million of reserves against the outstanding receivables with Virgin Atlantic, Virgin Australia, LATAM, Grupo Aeroméxico and others reflecting our expected recoveries given their restructuring efforts or recent bankruptcy filings. In determining the appropriate amount to reserve, we also considered the valuation of and our ability to realize the value of any collateral associated with each receivable. The reserves are recorded within accounts receivable, net on our balance sheet and within restructuring charges in our income statement.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract]

Derivatives and Risk Management

DERIVATIVES AND RISK MANAGEMENT

Changes in fuel prices, interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates impact our results of operations. In an effort to manage our exposure to these risks, we enter into derivative contracts and adjust our derivative portfolio as market conditions change. We recognize derivative contracts at fair value on our balance sheet.

Cash flows associated with purchasing and settling hedge contracts generally are classified as operating cash flows.

Fuel Price Risk

Our derivative contracts to hedge the financial risk from changing fuel prices are primarily related to Monroe’s inventory.

Interest Rate Risk

Our exposure to market risk from adverse changes in interest rates is primarily associated with our debt obligations. Market risk associated with our fixed and variable rate debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates.

In the March 2020 quarter, we unwound a majority of our interest rate swap contracts. The unwind of these contracts generated approximately $100 million of cash in the March 2020 quarter. These gains are being reflected in our income statement over the remaining term of the related debt agreements.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

We are subject to foreign currency exchange rate risk because we have revenue, expense and equity investments denominated in foreign currencies. To manage exchange rate risk, we execute both our international revenue and expense transactions in the same foreign currency to the extent practicable. From time to time, we may also enter into foreign currency option and forward contracts.

⁽²⁾Due in installments.

⁽³⁾Primarily includes unsecured bonds and debt secured by certain accounts receivable and real estate.

2020 Unsecured Notes

In June 2020, we issued $1.3 billion in aggregate principal amount of 7.375% unsecured notes due 2026. The unsecured notes are equal in right of payment with our other unsubordinated indebtedness and senior in right of payment to future subordinated debt. The unsecured notes are subject to covenants that, among other things, limit our ability to incur liens securing indebtedness for borrowed money or finance leases and engage in mergers and consolidations or transfer all or substantially all of our assets, in each case subject to certain exceptions. The unsecured notes also contain event of default provisions consistent with those in our recent unsecured debt offerings.

Unsecured CARES Act Payroll Support Program Loan

In the June 2020 quarter, we entered into a promissory note for $1.4 billion of the CARES Act payroll support program loan and issued warrants to acquire more than 5.9 million shares of Delta common stock under the program. We have recorded the value of the promissory note and warrants on a relative fair value basis as $1.3 billion of noncurrent debt and $100 million in additional paid in capital, respectively. We expect to enter into the final $163 million installment of the promissory note and issue the related warrants in July 2020 in connection with receipt of the final payment under the payroll support program. See Note 2, "Impact of the COVID-19 Pandemic," for further discussion of the terms of the payroll support program loan.

2020 Senior Secured Notes and Term Loan

In April 2020, we issued $3.5 billion of senior secured notes and entered into a $1.5 billion term loan secured by certain slots, gates and routes. The senior secured notes bear interest at an annual rate of 7.00% and mature in May 2025. The term loan bears interest at a variable rate equal to LIBOR plus a specified margin and is subject to payments of 1% per year, payable quarterly beginning in September 2020, with the balance due in April 2023.

2020 Secured Term Loan Facility

In March 2020, we entered into a $2.7 billion 364-day secured term loan facility ("the facility"), and we increased the borrowings thereunder to $3.0 billion in April 2020. Borrowings under the facility are secured by certain aircraft. The facility also contains an accordion feature under which the aggregate commitment can be increased to $4.0 billion upon our request, provided that the new lenders agree to the existing terms of the facility.

In the June 2020 quarter, the facility was amended to include a minimum liquidity covenant, as discussed further below.

2020-1 EETC

We completed a $1.0 billion offering of Class AA and A Pass Through Certificates, Series 2020-1 ("2020-1 EETC") utilizing a pass through trust during March 2020. The proceeds of this issuance were used to pay the unsecured notes that matured in the March 2020 quarter. In April 2020, we issued an additional $135 million of Class B certificates. The amounts of all 2020-1 EETC are included in Certificates in the table above. The details of the 2020-1 EETC, which is secured by 33 aircraft, are shown in the table below:

(in millions)	Total Principal		Fixed Interest Rate	Issuance Date	Final Maturity Date
2020-1 Class AA Certificates	$	796	2.00%	March 2020	June 2028
2020-1 Class A Certificates	204		2.50%	March 2020	June 2028
2020-1 Class B Certificates	135		8.00%	April 2020	June 2027
Total	$	1,135

2019-1 EETC

In April 2020, we issued an additional $108 million of certificates under the 2019-1 EETC offering initially completed in March 2019. The additional certificates were issued as 2019-1 Class B Certificates with a fixed interest rate of 8.00% and mature in April 2023.

2018 Revolving Credit Facility

In June 2020, we amended the 2018 revolving credit facility agreement ("Amended Revolving Credit Facility") to be secured by our Pacific route authorities and certain related assets. Additionally, the revolving credit facility was amended to extend the maturities of $1.3 billion of the revolver previously due in April 2021 to April 2022 and to include a minimum liquidity covenant, as discussed further below.

Availability Under Revolving Facilities

During the March 2020 quarter, we drew $3.0 billion on our revolving credit facilities. We have approximately $39 million undrawn as of June 30, 2020. The amounts drawn are spread across several lines within the debt summary table above.

Fair Value of Debt

Market risk associated with our fixed- and variable-rate debt relates to the potential reduction in fair value and negative impact to future earnings, respectively, from an increase in interest rates. The fair value of debt, shown below, is principally based on reported market values, recently completed market transactions and estimates based on interest rates, maturities, credit risk and underlying collateral. Debt is primarily classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy. 

(in millions)	June 30, 2020		December 31, 2019
Net carrying amount	$	23,493	$	10,106
Fair value	$	22,900	$	10,400

Covenants

Our credit facilities contain affirmative, negative and financial covenants that, among other things, may restrict our ability to place liens on collateral, sell or otherwise dispose of assets if we are not in compliance with a collateral coverage ratio, and pay dividends or repurchase stock. These covenants also require us to maintain $2.0 billion of minimum liquidity (defined as cash, cash equivalents, short-term investments and aggregate principal amount committed and available to be drawn under our revolving credit facilities).

We were in compliance with the covenants in our financing agreements at June 30, 2020.

We have no minimum funding requirements for our defined benefit pension plans. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our liquidity, we no longer plan to make any voluntary contributions during 2020.

During the June 2020 quarter, we announced voluntary early retirement and separation programs. These primarily apply to eligible U.S. merit, ground and flight attendant and pilot employees. The enrollment period for these programs will close in July 2020. Employees electing to participate in the retirement programs will be eligible for separation payments, continued healthcare benefits and certain participants will receive enhanced retiree healthcare benefits. As the election windows will close in the September 2020 quarter, we did not record any charges for these programs in the June 2020 quarter.

We currently estimate we will record a $2.7 billion to $3.3 billion charge associated with these programs during the September 2020 quarter. We anticipate that approximately $500 million to $600 million of this charge will result in cash payments to participants in the September 2020 quarter. Certain of the programs remain open and these represent our best estimates based on the employees who have signed up to date.

⁽¹⁾Includes two A330-900neo lease commitments with one in each of 2020 and 2021.

LATAM A350 Commitments

We have assumed ten of LATAM's A350 purchase commitments from Airbus, with deliveries through 2025, which are included as purchase commitments in the table above. We had previously agreed to acquire four A350 aircraft from LATAM, but have terminated the purchase agreement for a fee of $62 million during the June 2020 quarter. See Note 5, "Investments," for further information on our strategic alliance with LATAM.

Legal Contingencies

We are involved in various legal proceedings related to employment practices, environmental issues, antitrust matters and other matters concerning our business. We record liabilities for losses from legal proceedings when we determine that it is probable that the outcome in a legal proceeding will be unfavorable and the amount of loss can be reasonably estimated. Although the outcome of the legal proceedings in which we are involved cannot be predicted with certainty, we believe that the resolution of current matters will not have a material adverse effect on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.

Credit Card Processing Agreements

Our VISA/MasterCard and American Express credit card processing agreements provide that no cash reserve ("Reserve") is required, and no withholding of payment related to receivables collected will occur, except in certain circumstances, including when we do not maintain a required level of liquidity as outlined in the merchant processing agreements. In circumstances in which the credit card processor can establish a Reserve or withhold payments, the amount of the Reserve or payments that may be withheld would be equal to the potential liability of the credit card processor for tickets purchased with VISA/MasterCard or American Express credit cards, as applicable, that had not yet been used for travel. We did not have a Reserve or an amount withheld as of June 30, 2020 or December 31, 2019.

Other Contingencies

General Indemnifications

We are the lessee under many commercial real estate leases. It is common in these transactions for us, as the lessee, to agree to indemnify the lessor and the lessor's related parties for tort, environmental and other liabilities that arise out of or relate to our use or occupancy of the leased premises. This type of indemnity would typically make us responsible to indemnified parties for liabilities arising out of the conduct of, among others, contractors, licensees and invitees at, or in connection with, the use or occupancy of the leased premises. This indemnity often extends to related liabilities arising from the negligence of the indemnified parties but usually excludes any liabilities caused by either their sole or gross negligence or their willful misconduct.

Our aircraft and other equipment lease and financing agreements typically contain provisions requiring us, as the lessee or obligor, to indemnify the other parties to those agreements, including certain of those parties' related persons, against virtually any liabilities that might arise from the use or operation of the aircraft or other equipment.

We believe that our insurance would cover most of our exposure to liabilities and related indemnities associated with the commercial real estate leases and aircraft and other equipment lease and financing agreements described above. While our insurance does not typically cover environmental liabilities, we have insurance policies in place as required by applicable environmental laws.

Some of our aircraft and other financing transactions include provisions that require us to make payments to preserve an expected economic return to the lenders if that economic return is diminished due to specified changes in laws or regulations. In some of these financing transactions, we also bear the risk of changes in tax laws that would subject payments to non-U.S. lenders to withholding taxes.

We cannot reasonably estimate our potential future payments under the indemnities and related provisions described above because we cannot predict (1) when and under what circumstances these provisions may be triggered and (2) the amount that would be payable if the provisions were triggered because the amounts would be based on facts and circumstances existing at such time.

Other

We have certain contracts for goods and services that require us to pay a penalty, acquire inventory specific to us or purchase contract-specific equipment, as defined by each respective contract, if we terminate the contract without cause prior to its expiration date. Because these obligations are contingent on our termination of the contract without cause prior to its expiration date, no obligation would exist unless such a termination occurs.

SEGMENTS

Refinery Operations

Our refinery segment operates for the benefit of the airline segment by providing jet fuel to the airline segment from its own production and through jet fuel obtained through agreements with third parties. The refinery's production consists of jet fuel, as well as non-jet fuel products. We use several counterparties to exchange the non-jet fuel products produced by the refinery for jet fuel consumed in our airline operations. The gross fair value of the products exchanged under these agreements during the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $65 million and $895 million, respectively, compared to $1.1 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019.

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]

(Loss)/Earnings Per Share

(LOSS)/EARNINGS PER SHARE

We calculate basic (loss)/earnings per share and diluted (loss) per share by dividing net (loss)/income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding, excluding restricted shares. We calculate diluted earnings per share by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding plus the dilutive effect of outstanding share-based awards, including stock options and restricted stock awards. Antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted (loss)/earnings per share calculation are not material. The following table shows the computation of basic and diluted (loss)/earnings per share:

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Delta Air Lines, Inc. and our consolidated subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP") for interim financial information. Consistent with these requirements, this Form 10-Q does not include all the information required by GAAP for complete financial statements. As a result, this Form 10-Q should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying Notes in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Management believes the accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair statement of results for the interim periods presented.

Due to severe impacts from the global COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, seasonal variations in the demand for air travel, the volatility of aircraft fuel prices and other factors, operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of operating results for the entire year.

We reclassified certain prior period amounts to conform to the current period presentation. Unless otherwise noted, all amounts disclosed are stated before consideration of income taxes.

Recent Accounting Standards

Recent Accounting Standards

Credit Losses. In 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2016-13, "Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments." Under this ASU, an entity is required to utilize an "expected credit loss model" on certain financial instruments, including trade and financing receivables. This model requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information and requires an entity to estimate expected credit losses over the lifetime of the asset. We adopted this standard effective January 1, 2020 and due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we recorded reserves on certain receivables, which are discussed further in Note 5, "Investments."
