Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On August
20, 2026, Winnebago Industries, Inc., Winnebago of Indiana, LLC, Grand Design RV, LLC and Newmar Corporation (collectively, the “Borrowers”)
entered into a Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrowers, the other loan parties
party thereto from time to time, the lenders party thereto from time to time and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as the administrative agent
(the “Administrative Agent”).
The Credit
Agreement amends and restates in its entirety that certain Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement dated as of July 15, 2022, as
amended by that certain Amendment No. 1 to Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, dated as of March 18, 2024, by and among the
Borrowers, the other loan parties party thereto, the lenders party thereto from time to time and the Administrative Agent (the “Existing
Credit Agreement”), which provided for a five-year asset-based lending credit facility of up to $350 million.
Among other
things, the new Credit Agreement extends the maturity date applicable thereunder to August 20, 2031 and makes certain reporting, covenant
and other modifications.
The Borrowers’
obligations to repay amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement are secured by liens on substantially all of the assets of the Borrowers
and certain of their subsidiaries, and the amount available for borrowing under the Credit Agreement is limited to the lesser of the facility
total and the calculated borrowing base, which is based on certain loan percentages applied to eligible accounts receivable and eligible
inventories of the Borrowers. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement, subject to availability, may be made at the election of the Borrowers
based on various rates plus applicable spreads depending on the amount of borrowings outstanding. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement
bear interest at a floating rate consisting of an applicable spread of between 1.25%-1.75% (the “Applicable Spread”) based
upon the average daily amount of the facility available but unused during the most recent quarter plus, at the Borrowers’ election,
either term SOFR or REVSOFR30, as well as a commitment fee of 0.25% per annum on the average daily amount of the facility available but
unused. The Borrowers currently have no borrowings outstanding and, so long as at least 66% of the aggregate commitment under the facility
remains available but unused during the most recent fiscal quarter, would pay an Applicable Spread of 1.25% plus the floating rates set
forth above on any future borrowings under the Credit Agreement and currently pay a commitment fee of 0.25% on the average daily amount
of the facility available, but unused. The Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, affirmative and negative covenants,
limitations and events of default, consistent with the Existing Credit Agreement.
The foregoing description of the Credit
Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amended and Restated Credit Agreement
filed as Exhibit 10.1 hereto.
Item 2.03

Benchmark (or such component thereof) permanently or indefinitely; provided that, at the time of such statement or publication,
there is no successor administrator that will continue to provide such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is
a term rate, any Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or such component thereof); or
(3) a
public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published
component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that such Benchmark (or such component thereof) or, if such Benchmark is a term
rate, all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer

(a) Except
as otherwise expressly provided herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature shall be construed in accordance with GAAP, as
in effect from time to time; provided that, if the Borrower Representative notifies the Administrative Agent that the Company
requests an amendment to any provision hereof to eliminate the effect of any change occurring after the date hereof in GAAP or in the
application thereof on the operation of such provision (or if the Administrative Agent notifies the Company that the Required Lenders
request an amendment to any provision hereof for such purpose), regardless of whether any such notice is given before or after such change
in GAAP or in the application thereof, then such provision shall be interpreted on the basis of GAAP as in effect and applied immediately
before such change shall have become effective until such notice shall have been withdrawn or such provision amended in accordance herewith.
Notwithstanding any other provision contained herein, all terms of an accounting or financial nature used herein shall be construed,
and all computations of amounts and ratios referred to herein shall be made (x) without giving effect to any election under Financial

52
(b) All

of Indebtedness, or other transaction shall in each case be calculated after giving pro forma effect thereto (and, in the case of any
pro forma computation made hereunder, to determine whether such acquisition, disposition, issuance, incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness
or other transaction is permitted to be consummated hereunder) immediately after giving effect to such acquisition, disposition, issuance,
incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness or other transaction consummated since the first day of the period for which such pro forma
computation is being made and on or prior to the date of such computation, as if such transaction had occurred on the first day of the
most recent Test Period, and, to the extent applicable, to the historical earnings and cash flows associated with the assets acquired
or disposed of (but without giving effect to any synergies or cost savings, except as set forth in the definition of “Consolidated
EBITDA”) and any related incurrence or reduction of Indebtedness, all in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X
under the Securities Act (as in effect prior to January 1, 2021). If any Indebtedness bears a floating rate of interest and is being
given pro forma effect, the interest on such Indebtedness shall be calculated as if the rate in effect on the date of determination had
been the applicable rate for the entire period for which such pro forma computation is being made (taking into account any Swap Agreement
applicable to such Indebtedness).
Section 1.05. Status
of Obligations. In the event that the Company or any other Loan Party shall at any time issue or have outstanding any Subordinated
Indebtedness, the Company shall take or cause such other Loan Party to take all such actions as shall be necessary to cause the Secured
Obligations to constitute senior indebtedness (however denominated) in respect of such Subordinated Indebtedness and to enable the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders to have and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior
indebtedness under the terms of such Subordinated Indebtedness. Without limiting the foregoing, the Secured Obligations are hereby designated
as “senior indebtedness” and as “designated senior indebtedness” and words of similar import under and in respect
of any indenture or other agreement or instrument under which such Subordinated Indebtedness is outstanding and are further given all
such other designations as shall be required under the terms of any such Subordinated Indebtedness in order that the Lenders may have
and exercise any payment blockage or other remedies available or potentially available to holders of senior indebtedness under the terms
of such Subordinated Indebtedness.
53
Section 1.06. Interest
Rates; Benchmark Notifications. The interest rate on a Loan denominated in Dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark
that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition
Event, Section 2.14(c) provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent
does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission,
performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor
rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative,
successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest
rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability.
The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any
interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any
relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources
or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced
in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrowers, any Lender
or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages,
costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any
such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

and Restatement of the Existing Credit Agreement. The parties to this Agreement agree that, on the Effective Date, the terms and
provisions of the Existing Credit Agreement shall be and hereby are amended, superseded and restated in their entirety by the terms and
provisions of this Agreement. This Agreement is not intended to and shall not constitute a novation. All loans made and obligations incurred
under the Existing Credit Agreement which are outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Loans and Secured Obligations under
(and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Without limiting the foregoing, upon the effectiveness
hereof: (a) all references in the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) to the “Administrative
Agent,” the “Credit Agreement” and the “Loan Documents” shall be deemed to refer to the Administrative
Agent, this Agreement and the Loan Documents, (b) Letters of Credit which remain outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue
as Letters of Credit under (and shall be governed by the terms of) this Agreement, (c) all obligations constituting “Obligations”
with any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender which are outstanding on the Effective Date shall continue as Obligations under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents, (d) the liens and security interests in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Secured
Parties securing payment of the Secured Obligations (and all filings with any Governmental Authority in connection therewith) are in
all respects continuing and in full force and effect with respect to all Secured Obligations, (e) the Administrative Agent shall,
in consultation with the Borrowers, make such reallocations, sales, assignments or other relevant actions in respect of each Lender’s
credit and loan exposure under the Existing Credit Agreement as are necessary in the judgment of the Administrative Agent in order that
each such Lender’s outstanding Revolving Loans hereunder reflect such Lender’s ratable share of the outstanding Revolving
Loans on the Effective Date and (f) each of the Loan Parties reaffirms the terms and conditions of the “Loan Documents”
(as referred to and defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) executed by it, as modified and/or restated by the “Loan Documents”
(as referred to and defined herein), and acknowledges and agrees that each “Loan Document” (as referred to and defined in
the Existing Credit Agreement) executed by it, as modified and/or restated by the “Loan Documents” (as referred to and defined
herein), remains in full force and effect and is hereby ratified, reaffirmed and confirmed. Furthermore, the parties to this Agreement
agree that, on and after July 8, 2020, all references in the “Loan Documents” (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement
as in effect immediately prior to July 8, 2020) to the “ABL Term Loan Intercreditor Agreement” shall be deemed to refer
to the ABL/Fixed Asset Intercreditor Agreement.

(i) such
Lender’s Revolving Exposure would not exceed such Lender’s Commitment;
(ii) the
Aggregate Revolving Exposure would not exceed the lesser of (x) the Aggregate Commitment and (y) the Borrowing Base; and

and Borrowings.
(a) Each
Loan (other than a Swingline Loan) shall be made as part of a Borrowing consisting of Loans of the same Class and Type made by the
applicable Lenders ratably in accordance with their respective Commitments of the applicable Class. The failure of any Lender to make
any Loan required to be made by it shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder; provided that the Commitments
of the Lenders are several and no Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to make Loans as required. Any Protective
Advance, any Overadvance and any Swingline Loan shall be made in accordance with the procedures set forth in Sections 2.04
and 2.05.
(b) Subject
to Section 2.14, each Revolving Borrowing shall be comprised entirely of ABR Loans or Term Benchmark Loans as the Borrower
Representative may request in accordance herewith. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan. Each Lender at its option may make any Loan
by causing any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of such Lender to make such Loan (and in the case of an Affiliate, the provisions
of Sections 2.14, 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 shall apply to such Affiliate to the same extent as to such Lender);
provided that any exercise of such option shall not affect the obligation of the relevant Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance
with the terms of this Agreement.
(c) At
the commencement of each Interest Period for any Term Benchmark Revolving Borrowing, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that
is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $1,000,000. ABR Borrowings may be in any amount. Borrowings of more than one Type
and Class may be outstanding at the same time; provided that there shall not at any time be more than a total of six (6) Term
Benchmark Borrowings outstanding.
(d) Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, the Borrower Representative shall not be entitled to request, or to elect to convert or continue,
any Borrowing if the Interest Period requested with respect thereto would end after the Maturity Date.
55
Section 2.03. Requests
for Borrowings. To request a Revolving Borrowing, the Borrower Representative shall submit a Borrowing Request to the Administrative
Agent through Electronic System or the Approved Borrower Portal, in each case, to the extent arrangements for doing so have been approved
by the Administrative Agent not later than (a)(i) in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, three (3) U.S.
Government Securities Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (ii) in the case of an RFR Borrowing, not later
than 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, five (5) U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the date of the proposed Borrowing or (b) in
the case of an ABR Borrowing, 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the date of the proposed Borrowing; provided that any such notice of
an ABR Revolving Borrowing to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 2.06(e) may
be given not later than 9:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the date of such proposed Borrowing. Each such Borrowing Request shall be irrevocable
and shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative; provided that, each such electronic Borrowing Request
submitted through the Approved Borrower Portal, if permitted, is not required to be signed, but shall be submitted by a Responsible Officer
of the Borrower Representative or its duly appointed designee to the Administrative Agent. Each Borrowing Request shall specify the following
information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(a) the
name of the applicable Borrower;
(b) the
aggregate amount of the requested Borrowing and a breakdown of the separate wires comprising such Borrowing;
(c) the
date of such Borrowing, which shall be a Business Day;
(d) whether
such Borrowing is to be an ABR Borrowing or a Term Benchmark Borrowing; and
(e) in
the case of a Term Benchmark 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 Term Benchmark Borrowing, then the relevant 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, the Administrative
Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof and of the amount of such Lender’s Loan to be made as part of the requested
Borrowing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Borrowers be permitted to request pursuant to this Section 2.03,
prior to a Benchmark Transition Event and Benchmark Replacement Date with respect to the Term SOFR Rate, an RFR Loan (it being understood
and agreed that Daily Simple SOFR shall only apply to the extent provided in Sections 2.14(a) and 2.14(g), as applicable).
Section 2.04. Protective
Advances.
(a) Subject
to the limitations set forth below, the Administrative Agent is authorized by the Borrowers and the Lenders, from time to time in the
Administrative Agent’s sole discretion (but shall have absolutely no obligation to), to make Loans to the Borrowers, on behalf
of all Lenders, which the Administrative Agent, in its Permitted Discretion, deems necessary or desirable (i) to preserve or protect
the Collateral, or any portion thereof, (ii) to enhance the likelihood of, or maximize the amount of, repayment of the Loans and
other Obligations, or (iii) to pay any other amount chargeable to or required to be paid by the Borrowers pursuant to the terms
of this Agreement, including payments of reimbursable expenses (including costs, fees, and expenses as described in Section 9.03)
and other sums payable under the Loan Documents (any of such Loans are herein referred to as “Protective Advances”);
provided that, (x) the aggregate amount of Protective Advances outstanding at any time, when aggregated with the amount of
Overadvances outstanding at such time, shall not at any time exceed 10% of the Aggregate Commitment, (y) no Protective Advance shall
cause any Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed such Lender’s Commitment and (z) the Aggregate Revolving Exposure after
giving effect to the Protective Advances being made shall not exceed the Aggregate Commitment. Protective Advances may be made even if
the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have not been satisfied. The Protective Advances shall be secured by the
Liens in favor of the Administrative Agent in and to the Collateral and shall constitute Obligations hereunder. All Protective Advances
shall be ABR Borrowings. The making of a Protective Advance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent to make any
Protective Advance on any other occasion. The Administrative Agent’s authorization to make Protective Advances may be revoked at
any time by the Required Lenders. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon the Administrative
Agent’s receipt thereof. At any time that there is sufficient Availability and the conditions precedent set forth in Section 4.02
have been satisfied, the Administrative Agent may request the Lenders to make a Revolving Loan to repay a Protective Advance. At any
other time the Administrative Agent may require the Lenders to fund their risk participations described in Section 2.04(b).
56
(b) Upon
the making of a Protective Advance by the Administrative Agent (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default), each Lender shall
be deemed, without further action by any party hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Administrative Agent,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Protective Advance in proportion to its Applicable Percentage.
From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Protective Advance purchased hereunder,
the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments of principal
and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Protective Advance.
Section 2.05. Swingline
Loans and Overadvances.
(a) The
Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Lenders agree that in order to facilitate the administration of this Agreement and
the other Loan Documents, promptly after the Borrower Representative requests an ABR Borrowing, the Swingline Lender may elect to have
the terms of this Section 2.05(a) apply to such Borrowing Request by advancing, on behalf of the Lenders and in the
amount requested, same day funds to the Borrowers, on the date of the applicable Borrowing to the Funding Account(s) (each such
Loan made solely by the Swingline Lender pursuant to this Section 2.05(a) is referred to in this Agreement as a “Swingline
Loan”), with settlement among them as to the Swingline Loans to take place on a periodic basis as set forth in Section 2.05(d).
Each Swingline Loan shall be subject to all the terms and conditions applicable to other ABR Loans funded by the Lenders, except that
all payments thereon shall be payable to the Swingline Lender solely for its own account. The aggregate amount of Swingline Loans outstanding
at any time shall not exceed an amount equal to 10% of the Aggregate Commitment (the “Swingline Sublimit”). The Swingline
Lender shall not make any Swingline Loan if the requested Swingline Loan results in the Borrowers failing to be in compliance with
the Revolving Exposure Limitations (before or after giving effect to such Swingline Loan). All Swingline Loans shall be ABR Borrowings.
(b) Any
provision of this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding, at the request of the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent
may in its sole discretion (but with absolutely no obligation), make Revolving Loans to the Borrowers, on behalf of the Lenders, in amounts
that exceed Availability or any Borrower’s Availability (any such excess Revolving Loans are herein referred to collectively as
“Overadvances”); provided that, no Overadvance shall result in a Default due to Borrowers’ failure to
comply with Section 2.01 for so long as such Overadvance remains outstanding in accordance with the terms of this paragraph,
but solely with respect to the amount of such Overadvance. In addition, Overadvances may be made even if the condition precedent set
forth in Section 4.02(c) has not been satisfied. All Overadvances shall constitute ABR Borrowings. The making of an
Overadvance on any one occasion shall not obligate the Administrative Agent to make any Overadvance on any other occasion. The authority
of the Administrative Agent to make Overadvances is limited to an aggregate amount not to exceed, when aggregated with the aggregate
amount of Protective Advances outstanding at such time, 10% of the Aggregate Commitment at any time and no Overadvance shall cause any
Lender’s Revolving Exposure to exceed its Commitment; provided that, the Required Lenders may at any time revoke the Administrative
Agent’s authorization to make Overadvances. Any such revocation must be in writing and shall become effective prospectively upon
the Administrative Agent’s receipt thereof. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement (including, without limitation,
Section 2.11), the Borrowers may prepay any Overadvance in whole or in part at any time and in any amount; provided, further,
that no Overadvance may remain outstanding for more than thirty days.
57
(c) Upon
the making of a Swingline Loan or an Overadvance (whether before or after the occurrence of a Default and regardless of whether a Settlement
has been requested with respect to such Swingline Loan or Overadvance), each Lender shall be deemed, without further action by any party
hereto, to have unconditionally and irrevocably purchased from the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be,
without recourse or warranty, an undivided interest and participation in such Swingline Loan or Overadvance in proportion to its Applicable
Percentage of the Commitment. The Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent may, at any time, require the Lenders to fund their participations.
From and after the date, if any, on which any Lender is required to fund its participation in any Swingline Loan or Overadvance purchased
hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly distribute to such Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all payments
of principal and interest and all proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent in respect of such Swingline Loan or Overadvance.
(d) The
Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Swingline Lender, shall request settlement (a “Settlement”) with the Lenders
on at least a weekly basis and on any date that the Administrative Agent elects, by notifying the Lenders of such requested Settlement
by facsimile, telephone, or e-mail no later than 12:00 noon, Chicago time, on the date of such requested Settlement (the “Settlement
Date”). Each Lender (other than the Swingline Lender, in the case of the Swingline Loans) shall transfer the amount of such
Lender’s Applicable Percentage of the outstanding principal amount of the applicable Loan with respect to which Settlement is requested
to the Administrative Agent, to such account of the Administrative Agent as the Administrative Agent may designate, not later than 2:00 p.m.,
Chicago time, on such Settlement Date. Settlements may occur during the existence of a Default and whether or not the applicable conditions
precedent set forth in Section 4.02 have then been satisfied. Such amounts transferred to the Administrative Agent shall
be applied against the amounts of the Swingline Lender’s Swingline Loans and, together with Swingline Lender’s Applicable
Percentage of such Swingline Loan, shall constitute Revolving Loans of such Lenders, respectively. If any such amount is not transferred
to the Administrative Agent by any Lender on such Settlement Date, the Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover from such Lender
on demand such amount, together with interest thereon, as specified in Section 2.07.
Section 2.06. Letters
of Credit.
(a) General.
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower Representative may request the issuance of Letters of Credit for its
own account or for the account of another Borrower denominated in Dollars as the applicant thereof for the support of its or its Subsidiaries’
obligations, in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the relevant Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to
time during the Availability Period. In the event of any conflict between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and
conditions of any form of letter of credit application or other agreement submitted by the Borrowers to, or entered into by the Borrowers
with, the relevant Issuing Bank relating to any Letter of Credit, the terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. Notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the Issuing Bank shall have no obligation hereunder to issue, amend or extend and shall not issue, amend
or extend any Letter of Credit (i) the proceeds of which would be made available to any Person (A) to fund any activity or
business of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any country or territory that, at the time of such funding, is the subject of any Sanctions
or (B) in any manner that would result in a violation of any Sanctions by any party to this Agreement, (ii) if any order, judgment
or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain the Issuing Bank from issuing,
amending or extending such Letter of Credit, or request that such Issuing Bank refrain from issuing, amending or extending such Letter
of Credit, or any Requirement of Law relating to the Issuing Bank or any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law)
from any Governmental Authority with jurisdiction over the Issuing Bank shall prohibit the issuance, amendment or extension of letters
of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular, or any such order, judgment or decree, or law shall impose upon the Issuing
Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital or liquidity requirement (for which the Issuing Bank is
not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the Effective Date, or shall impose upon the Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss,
cost or expense which was not applicable on the Effective Date and which the Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it, or (iii) if
the issuance, amendment or extension of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of the Issuing Bank applicable to letters
of credit generally; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, (x) the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform
and Consumer Protection Act and all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives thereunder or issued in connection therewith
or in the implementation thereof, and (y) all requests, rules, guidelines, requirements or directives promulgated by the Bank for
International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or
foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall in each case be deemed not to be in effect on the Effective
Date for purposes of clause (ii) above, regardless of the date enacted, adopted, issued or implemented.
58
(b) Notice
of Issuance, Amendment, Renewal, Extension; Certain Conditions. To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment,
renewal or extension of an outstanding Letter of Credit), the Borrower Representative shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit through
Electronic Systems, the Approved Borrower Portal, or other electronic communication, in each case to the extent arrangements for doing
so have been approved by the relevant Issuing Bank) to an Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of, but in
any event no less than three (3) Business Days prior to, the requested date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension) a written
notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to be amended, renewed or extended, and specifying
the date of issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to
expire (which shall comply with paragraph (c) of this Section), the amount of such Letter of Credit, the name and address
of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend, renew or extend such Letter of Credit.
In addition, as a condition to any such Letter of Credit issuance, the applicable Borrower shall have entered into a continuing agreement
(or other letter of credit agreement) for the issuance of letters of credit and/or shall submit a letter of credit application in each
case, as required by the Issuing Bank and using such Issuing Bank’s standard form (each, a “Letter of Credit Agreement”).
If requested by such Issuing Bank, the applicable Borrower also shall submit a letter of credit application on such Issuing Bank’s
standard form in connection with any request for a Letter of Credit. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended, renewed or extended
only if (and upon issuance, amendment, renewal or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrowers shall be deemed to represent and warrant
that), after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (i) the aggregate LC Exposure shall not exceed $35,000,000
and (ii) the Borrowers shall be in compliance with the Revolving Exposure Limitations. Notwithstanding the foregoing or anything
to the contrary contained herein, no Issuing Bank shall be obligated to issue or modify any Letter of Credit if, immediately after giving
effect thereto, the outstanding LC Exposure in respect of all Letters of Credit issued by such Person and its Affiliates would exceed
such Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Sublimit. Without limiting the foregoing and without affecting the limitations contained herein,
it is understood and agreed that the Borrower Representative may from time to time request that an Issuing Bank issue Letters of Credit
in excess of its individual Issuing Bank Sublimit in effect at the time of such request, and each Issuing Bank agrees to consider any
such request in good faith. Any Letter of Credit so issued by an Issuing Bank in excess of its individual Issuing Bank Sublimit then
in effect shall nonetheless constitute a Letter of Credit for all purposes of the Credit Agreement, and shall not affect the Issuing
Bank Sublimit of any other Issuing Bank, subject to the limitations on the aggregate LC Exposure set forth in clause (i) of
this Section 2.06(b).
59
(c) Expiration
Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination or non-renewal by notice from the relevant Issuing Bank to
the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the date one year after the date of the issuance
of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any renewal or extension of the expiration date thereof, including, without limitation,
any automatic renewal provision, one year after such renewal or extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days
prior to the Maturity Date.
(d) Participations.
By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a Letter of Credit increasing the amount or extending the term thereof) and
without any further action on the part of any Issuing Bank or the Lenders, each Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender
hereby acquires from each Issuing Bank, a participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of
the aggregate amount available to be drawn under such Letter of Credit. In consideration and in furtherance of the foregoing, each Lender
hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the relevant Issuing Bank, such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrowers on the date due as provided
in paragraph (e) of this Section, or of any reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrowers for any reason.
Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligations to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of
Credit and to make payments in respect of such acquired participations is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any
circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a
Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding
or reduction whatsoever.
(e) Reimbursement.
If the Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement
by paying to the Administrative Agent an amount equal to such LC Disbursement (i) not later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the
date that such LC Disbursement is made, if the Borrower Representative shall have received notice of such LC Disbursement prior to 9:00
a.m., Chicago time, on such date, or, (ii) if such notice has not been received by the Borrower Representative prior to such time
on such date, then not later than 11:00 a.m., Chicago time, on (A) the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives such
notice, if such notice is received prior to 9:00 a.m., Chicago time, on the day of receipt, or (B) the Business Day immediately
following the day that the Borrower Representative receives such notice, if such notice is not received prior to such time on the day
of receipt; provided that, the Borrowers may, subject to the conditions to borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with
Section 2.03 or 2.05 that such payment be financed with an ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan in an equivalent
amount and, to the extent so financed, the Borrowers’ obligation to make such payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting
ABR Revolving Borrowing or Swingline Loan. If the Borrowers fail to make such payment when due, the Administrative Agent shall notify
each Revolving Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrowers in respect thereof and such Lender’s
Applicable Percentage thereof. Promptly following receipt of such notice, each Revolving Lender shall pay to the Administrative Agent
its Applicable Percentage of the payment then due from the Borrowers, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.07 with
respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.07 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Revolving
Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Revolving Lenders.
Promptly following receipt by the Administrative Agent of any payment from the Borrowers pursuant to this paragraph, the Administrative
Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Revolving Lenders have made payments pursuant to this
paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and the Issuing Bank as their interests may appear. Any payment made by
a Revolving Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse the Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Revolving
Loans or a Swingline Loan as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation
to reimburse such LC Disbursement.
60
(f) Obligations
Absolute. The Borrowers’ joint and several obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in paragraph (e) of
this Section shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
under any and all circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit,
any Letter of Credit Agreement 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) any payment by an Issuing Bank under a Letter of Credit against presentation of a draft or other document
that does not comply with the terms of such Letter of Credit, 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, constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or
provide a right of setoff against, the Borrowers’ obligations hereunder. Neither the Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any
Issuing Bank, 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,
document, 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 relevant
Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse any Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrowers 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 Borrowers to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by any Borrower that are caused by such Issuing Bank’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 or willful misconduct on the part of any Issuing
Bank (as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction), such Issuing Bank 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, each Issuing Bank may, in
its sole discretion, either accept and make payment upon such documents without responsibility for further investigation, regardless
of any notice or information to the contrary, or refuse to accept and make payment upon such documents if such documents are not in strict
compliance with the terms of such Letter of Credit.
(g) Disbursement
Procedures. Each Issuing Bank shall, promptly following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand
for payment under a Letter of Credit. Each Issuing Bank shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent and the applicable Borrower by
telephone (confirmed by fax or through Electronic System) of such demand for payment and whether such Issuing Bank has made or will make
an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that such notice need not be given prior to payment by the Issuing Bank and any failure
to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders
with respect to any such LC Disbursement.
61
(h) Interim
Interest. If any Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrowers shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in
full on 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 Borrowers reimburse such LC Disbursement, at the rate per annum then
applicable to ABR Revolving Loans and such interest shall be payable on the date when such reimbursement is due; provided that,
if the Borrowers fail to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section, then Section 2.13(e) shall
apply. Interest accrued pursuant to this paragraph shall be for the account of such Issuing Bank, except that interest accrued on and
after the date of payment by any Lender pursuant to paragraph (e) of this Section to reimburse such Issuing Bank
shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.
(i) Replacement
and Resignation of an Issuing Bank.
(A) Any
Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent, the replaced
Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank.
At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrowers shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of the replaced
Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.12(b). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (i) the successor
Issuing Bank shall have all the rights and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit to be
issued by it thereafter and (ii) references herein to the term “Issuing Bank” shall be deemed to refer to such
successor or to any previous Issuing Bank, or to such successor and all previous Issuing Banks, as the context shall require. After the
replacement of an Issuing Bank hereunder, the replaced Issuing Bank shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights
and obligations of an Issuing Bank under this Agreement with respect to Letters of Credit then outstanding and issued by it prior to such
replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit or extend or otherwise amend any existing Letters of Credit.
(B) Subject
to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, any Issuing Bank may resign
as an Issuing Bank at any time upon thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative
and the Lenders, in which case, such resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.06(i)(A) above.
(j) Cash
Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, on the Business Day that the Borrower Representative receives
notice from the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders (or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, Revolving Lenders
with LC Exposure representing greater than 66 2/3% of the aggregate LC Exposure) demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to
this paragraph, the Borrowers shall deposit in an account with the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent and
for the benefit of the Revolving Lenders (the “LC Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the amount
of the LC Exposure as of such date plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon; provided that the obligation to deposit such
cash collateral shall become effective immediately, and such deposit shall become immediately due and payable, without demand or other
notice of any kind, upon the occurrence of any Event of Default with respect to any Borrower described in clause (h) or
(i) of Article VII. Such deposit shall be held by the Administrative Agent as collateral for the payment and
performance of the Secured Obligations. The Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and control, including the exclusive right
of withdrawal, over the LC Collateral Account and the Borrowers hereby grant the Administrative Agent a security interest in the LC Collateral
Account and all money or other assets on deposit therein or credited thereto. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such
deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Administrative Agent and at the Borrowers’ risk
and expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in the LC Collateral
Account. Moneys in the LC Collateral Account shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Issuing Bank 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 Borrowers for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated (but subject to the consent of
Revolving Lenders with LC Exposure representing greater than 66 2/3% of the aggregate LC Exposure), be applied to satisfy other Secured
Obligations. If the Borrowers are required to provide an amount of cash collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event
of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrowers within three (3) Business Days
after all such Events of Default have been cured or waived as confirmed in writing by the Administrative Agent.
62
(k) Issuing
Bank Reports to the Administrative Agent. Unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank shall, in addition
to its notification obligations set forth elsewhere in this Section, report in writing to the Administrative Agent (i) periodic
activity (for such period or recurrent periods as shall be requested by the Administrative Agent) in respect of Letters of Credit issued
by such Issuing Bank, including all issuances, extensions, amendments and renewals, all expirations and cancelations and all disbursements
and reimbursements, (ii) reasonably prior to the time that such Issuing Bank issues, amends, renews or extends any Letter of Credit,
the date of such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension, and the stated amount of the Letters of Credit issued, amended, renewed or
extended by it and outstanding after giving effect to such issuance, amendment, renewal or extension (and whether the amounts thereof
shall have changed), (iii) on each Business Day on which such Issuing Bank makes any LC Disbursement, the date and amount of such
LC Disbursement, (iv) on any Business Day on which any Borrower fails to reimburse an LC Disbursement required to be reimbursed
to such Issuing Bank 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 as to the Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank.
(l) LC
Exposure Determination. For all purposes of this Agreement, the amount of a Letter of Credit that, by its terms, provides for one
or more automatic increases in the stated amount thereof shall be deemed to be the maximum stated amount of such Letter of Credit after
giving effect to all such increases, whether or not such maximum stated amount is in effect at the time of determination.
(m) Letters
of Credit Issued for Account of Subsidiaries. Notwithstanding that a Letter of Credit issued or outstanding hereunder supports any
obligations of, or is for the account of, a Subsidiary, or states that a Subsidiary is the “account party,” “applicant,”
“customer,” “instructing party,” or the like, of or for such Letter of Credit, and without derogating from any
rights of the Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Subsidiary in respect of such Letter
of Credit, the Borrowers (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the Issuing Bank hereunder for such Letter of Credit (including
to reimburse any and all drawings thereunder) as if such Letter of Credit had been issued solely for the account of a Borrower and (ii) irrevocably
waives any and all defenses that might otherwise be available to it as a guarantor or surety of any or all of the obligations of such
Subsidiary in respect of such Letter of Credit. Each Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its
Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrowers, and that each Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits from the businesses
of such Subsidiaries.
63
Section 2.07. Funding
of Borrowings.
(a) Each
Lender shall make each Loan to be made by such Lender hereunder on the proposed date thereof solely by wire transfer of immediately available
funds by 1:00 p.m., Chicago time, to the account of the Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purpose by notice
to the Lenders in an amount equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage; provided that, Swingline Loans shall be made as
provided in Section 2.05. The Administrative Agent will make such Loans available to the Borrower Representative by promptly
crediting the funds so received in the aforesaid account of the Administrative Agent to the Funding Account; provided that ABR
Revolving Loans made to finance the reimbursement of (i) an LC Disbursement as provided in Section 2.06(e) shall
be remitted by the Administrative Agent to the applicable Issuing Bank and (ii) a Protective Advance or an Overadvance shall be
retained by the Administrative Agent.
(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 and may, in
reliance upon such assumption, make available to the relevant 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 such Borrower severally
agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount with interest thereon, for each day from and including
the date such amount is made available to such 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 such Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If such Lender
pays such amount to the Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing,
provided, that any interest received from a Borrower by the Administrative Agent during the period beginning when Administrative
Agent funded the Borrowing until such Lender pays such amount shall be solely for the account of the Administrative Agent.
Section 2.08. Interest
Elections.
(a) Each
Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the applicable Borrowing Request and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing,
shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Borrowing Request. Thereafter, the Borrower Representative may elect to convert
such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a Term Benchmark Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods
therefor, all as provided in this Section. The Borrower Representative may elect different options with respect to different portions
of the affected Borrowing, in which case each such portion shall be allocated ratably among the Lenders holding the Loans comprising
such Borrowing, and the Loans comprising each such portion shall be considered a separate Borrowing. This Section shall not apply
to Swingline Borrowings, Overadvances, or Protective Advances, which may not be converted or continued.
(b) To
make an election pursuant to this Section, the Borrower Representative shall submit an Interest Election Request to the Administrative
Agent through Electronic System or the Approved Borrower Portal, in each case to the extent arrangements for doing so have been approved
by the Administrative Agent, by the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.03 if the Borrowers were requesting
a Borrowing of the Type resulting from such election to be made on the effective date of such election. Each such Interest Election Request
shall be irrevocable and shall be signed by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative; provided that, each such electronic
Interest Election Request submitted through the Approved Borrower Portal, if permitted, is not required to be signed but shall be submitted
by a Responsible Officer of the Borrower Representative or its duly appointed designee to the Administrative Agent.
64
(c) Each
Interest Election Request shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.02:
(i) the
name of the applicable Borrower and 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 Term Benchmark Borrowing; and
(iv) if
the resulting Borrowing is a Term Benchmark Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election,
which Interest Period shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”.
If
any such Interest Election Request requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the applicable Borrower
shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one month’s duration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event
shall the Borrowers be permitted to request pursuant to this Section 2.08(c), prior to a Benchmark Transition Event and Benchmark
Replacement Date with respect to the Term SOFR Rate, an RFR Loan (it being understood and agreed that Daily Simple SOFR shall only apply
to the extent provided in Section 2.14(a) and 2.14(g), as applicable).
(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 Representative fails to deliver a timely Interest Election Request with respect to a Term Benchmark 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 the Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders, so notifies the Borrower Representative,
then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a Term Benchmark
Borrowing or an RFR Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, (A) each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing
at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto and (B) each RFR Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR Borrowing on the next
Interest Payment Date in respect thereof.
Section 2.09. Termination
and Reduction of Commitments; Increase in Commitments.
(a) Unless
previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Maturity Date.
(b) The
Borrowers may at any time terminate the Commitments upon (i) the payment in full of all outstanding Loans, together with accrued
and unpaid interest thereon and on any Letters of Credit, (ii) the cancellation and return of all outstanding Letters of Credit
(or alternatively, with respect to each such Letter of Credit, the furnishing to the Administrative Agent of a cash deposit (or at the
discretion of the Administrative Agent a back-up standby letter of credit satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and Issuing Bank)
equal to 103% of the LC Exposure as of such date), (iii) the payment in full of the accrued and unpaid fees, and (iv) the payment
in full of all reimbursable expenses and other Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations), together with accrued and unpaid interest
thereon.
65
(c) The
Borrowers may from time to time reduce the Commitments; provided that (i) each reduction of the Commitments shall be in an
amount that is an integral multiple of $10,000,000 and not less than $10,000,000; (ii) the Borrowers shall not terminate or reduce
the Commitments if, after giving effect to any concurrent prepayment of the Revolving Loans in accordance with Section 2.10,
the Borrowers shall not be in compliance with the Revolving Exposure Limitations; and (iii) any such reduction shall be permanent.
(d) The
Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent of any election to terminate or reduce the Commitments under the foregoing
paragraphs of this Section at least three (3) Business Days prior to the effective date of such termination or reduction, specifying
such election and the effective date thereof. Promptly following receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall advise the
Lenders of the contents thereof. Each notice delivered by the Borrower Representative pursuant to this Section shall be irrevocable;
provided that a notice of termination of the Commitments delivered by the Borrower Representative may state that such notice is
conditioned upon the effectiveness of other credit facilities, in which case such notice may be revoked by the Borrower Representative
(by notice to the Administrative Agent on or prior to the specified effective date) if such condition is not satisfied. Any termination
or reduction of the Commitments shall be permanent. Each reduction of the Commitments shall be made ratably among the Lenders in accordance
with their respective Commitments.
(e) The
Borrowers shall have the right to increase the Commitments by obtaining additional Commitments, either from one or more of the Lenders
or another lending institution (other than an Ineligible Institution); provided that (i) any such request for an increase
shall be in a minimum amount of $25,000,000 (or such lesser amount that represents all remaining availability hereunder), (ii) after
giving effect thereto, the sum of the total of the additional Commitments does not exceed $150,000,000, (iii) the Administrative
Agent and the Issuing Bank(s) have approved the identity of any such new Lender, such approvals not to be unreasonably withheld,
(iv) any such new Lender assumes all of the rights and obligations of a “Lender” hereunder, and (v) the
procedure described in Section 2.09(f) have been satisfied. Nothing contained in this Section 2.09 shall
constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to increase its Commitment hereunder at any time.
(f) Any
amendment hereto for such an increase or addition shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent
and shall only require the written signatures of the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers and each Lender being added or increasing its
Commitment. As a condition precedent to such an increase or addition, the Borrowers shall deliver to the Administrative Agent (i) a
certificate of each Loan Party signed by an authorized officer of such Loan Party (A) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted
by such Loan Party approving or consenting to such increase, and (B) in the case of the Borrowers, certifying that, before and after
giving effect to such increase or addition, (1) the representations and warranties contained in Article III and the
other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (provided that any representation or warranty that is qualified
by materiality or Material Adverse Effect is true and correct in all respects), except to the extent that such representations and warranties
specifically refer to an earlier date, in which case they are true and correct in all material respects (provided that any representation
or warranty that is qualified by materiality or Material Adverse Effect are true and correct in all respects) as of such earlier date,
(2) no Default exists and (3) the Borrowers are in compliance (on a pro forma basis) with the covenant contained in Section 6.12
(calculated assuming an FCCR Test Period is then in effect) and (ii) legal opinions and documents consistent with those delivered
on the Effective Date, to the extent reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent.
66
(g) On
the effective date of any such increase or addition, (i) any Lender increasing (or, in the case of any newly added Lender, extending)
its Commitment shall make available to the Administrative Agent such amounts in immediately available funds as the Administrative Agent
shall determine, for the benefit of the other Lenders, as being required in order to cause, after giving effect to such increase or addition
and the use of such amounts to make payments to such other Lenders, each Lender’s portion of the outstanding Revolving Loans of
all the Lenders to equal its revised Applicable Percentage of such outstanding Revolving Loans, and the Administrative Agent shall make
such other adjustments among the Lenders with respect to the Revolving Loans then outstanding and amounts of principal, interest, commitment
fees and other amounts paid or payable with respect thereto as shall be necessary, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, in order
to effect such reallocation and (ii) the Borrowers shall be deemed to have repaid and reborrowed all outstanding Revolving Loans
as of the date of any increase (or addition) in the Commitments (with such reborrowing to consist of the Types of Revolving Loans, with
related Interest Periods if applicable, specified in a notice delivered by the Borrower Representative, in accordance with the requirements
of Section 2.03). The deemed payments made pursuant to clause (ii) of the immediately preceding sentence
shall be accompanied by payment of all accrued interest on the amount prepaid and, in respect of each Term Benchmark Loan, shall be subject
to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.16 if the deemed payment occurs other than on
the last day of the related Interest Periods. Within a reasonable time after the effective date of any increase or addition, the Administrative
Agent shall, and is hereby authorized and directed to, revise the Commitment Schedule to reflect such increase or addition and shall
distribute such revised Commitment Schedule to each of the Lenders and the Borrower Representative, whereupon such revised Commitment
Schedule shall replace the old Commitment Schedule and become part of this Agreement.
Section 2.10. Repayment
of Loans; Evidence of Debt.
(a) The
Borrowers hereby unconditionally promise to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal
amount of each Revolving Loan on the Maturity Date, (ii) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid amount of each Protective Advance
on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Administrative Agent and (iii) to the Administrative Agent the then unpaid
principal amount of each Overadvance on the earlier of the Maturity Date and demand by the Administrative Agent.
(b) At
all times during any Cash Dominion Period, on each Business Day, the Administrative Agent shall apply all funds credited to the Collection
Account on such Business Day or the immediately preceding Business Day (at the discretion of the Administrative Agent, whether or not
immediately available) first to prepay any Protective Advances and Overadvances that may be outstanding, pro rata, and second to prepay
the Revolving Loans (including Swingline Loans) and to cash collateralize outstanding LC Exposure.
(c) Each
Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing the indebtedness of the Borrowers to such
Lender resulting from each Loan made by such Lender, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender
from time to time hereunder.
(d) The
Administrative Agent shall maintain accounts in which it shall record (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder, the Class and
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 Borrowers 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.
67
(e) The
entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to paragraph (c) or (d) 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 Borrowers to
repay the Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
(f) Any
Lender may request that Loans made by it be evidenced by a promissory note. In such event, the Borrowers shall prepare, execute and deliver
to such Lender a promissory note payable to such Lender and its registered assigns and in a form approved by the Administrative Agent.
Thereafter, the Loans evidenced by such promissory note and interest thereon shall at all times (including after assignment pursuant
to Section 9.04) be represented by one or more promissory notes in such form.
Section 2.11. Prepayment
of Loans.
(a) The
Borrowers shall have the right at any time and from time to time to prepay any Borrowing in whole or in part, subject to prior notice
in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section and, if applicable, payment of any break funding expenses under
Section 2.16.
(b) Except
for Protective Advances and Overadvances permitted under Sections 2.04 and 2.05, if at any time the Borrowers are
not in compliance with the Revolving Exposure Limitations, the Borrowers shall prepay the Revolving Loans, LC Exposure and/or Swingline
Loans or cash collateralize LC Exposure in an account with the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(j), as applicable,
in an aggregate amount equal to such excess.
(c) The
Borrower Representative shall notify the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender)
by telephone (confirmed by email) through Electronic System or the Approved Borrower Portal, in each case, to the extent arrangements
for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan, the Swingline Lender),
of any prepayment hereunder not later than 10:00 a.m., Chicago time, (A) in the case of prepayment of a Term Benchmark Borrowing,
three (3) Business Days before the date of prepayment, (B) in the case of prepayment of an RFR Borrowing, five (5) Business
Days before the date of prepayment or (C) in the case of prepayment of an ABR Borrowing, on the date of prepayment. Each such notice
shall be irrevocable and shall specify the prepayment date and the principal amount of each Borrowing or portion thereof to be prepaid;
provided that if a notice of prepayment is given in connection with a conditional notice of termination of the Commitments as
contemplated by Section 2.09, then such notice of prepayment may be revoked if such notice of termination is revoked in accordance
with Section 2.09. Promptly following receipt of any such notice relating to a Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall
advise the Lenders of the contents thereof. Each partial prepayment of any Revolving Borrowing shall be in an amount that would be permitted
in the case of an advance of a Revolving Borrowing of the same Type as provided in Section 2.02. Each prepayment of a Revolving
Borrowing shall be applied ratably to the Revolving Loans included in the prepaid Borrowing. Prepayments shall be accompanied by accrued
interest to the extent required by Section 2.13 and amounts due under Section 2.16.
Section 2.12. Fees.
(a) The
Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a commitment fee, which shall accrue at 0.25% per annum
on the average daily amount of the Available Commitment of such Lender during the period from and including the Effective Date to but
excluding the date on which such Lender’s Commitment terminates. Accrued commitment fees shall be payable in arrears on the first
Business Day of January, April, July and October of each year and on the date on which the Commitments terminate, commencing
on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided that any commitment fees accruing after the date on which the
Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. All commitment fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall
be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day of each period and the date on which
the Commitments terminate). For purposes of computing commitment fees, the Commitment of a Lender shall be deemed to be used to the extent
of the outstanding Loans and LC Exposure of such Lender.
68
(b) The
Borrowers agree to pay (i) to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations
in Letters of Credit, which shall accrue at the same Applicable Rate used to determine the interest rate applicable to Term Benchmark
Revolving Loans on the average daily amount of such Lender’s LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed
LC Disbursements) during the period from and including the Effective Date to but excluding the later of the date on which such Lender’s
Commitment terminates and the date on which such Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to the applicable Issuing Bank,
(A) for its own account, a fronting fee, at per annum rate equal to 0.125% (or such other percent as agreed upon by the Company
and such Issuing Bank) on the average daily amount of the LC Exposure (excluding any portion thereof attributable to unreimbursed LC
Disbursements) attributable to Letters of Credit issued by such Issuing Bank during the period from and including the Effective Date
to but excluding the later of the date of termination of the Commitments and the date on which there ceases to be any LC Exposure and
(B) the Issuing Bank’s standard fees and commissions with respect to the issuance, amendment, cancellation, negotiation, transfer,
presentment, renewal or extension of any Letter of Credit or processing of drawings thereunder. Participation fees and fronting fees
accrued through and including the last day of each calendar quarter shall be payable in arrears on the first Business Day of each January,
April, July and October following such last day, commencing on the first such date to occur after the Effective Date; provided
that all such fees shall be payable on the date on which the Commitments terminate and any such fees accruing after the date on which
the Commitments terminate shall be payable on demand. Any other fees payable to the Issuing Bank pursuant to this paragraph shall be
payable within ten (10) days after demand. All participation fees and fronting fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of
360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day of each
period and the date on which the Revolving Commitments terminate).
(c) The
Borrowers agree to pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account, fees payable in the amounts and at the times separately agreed
upon between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent.
(d) All
fees payable hereunder shall be paid on the dates due, in immediately available funds, to the Administrative Agent (or to the Issuing
Bank, in the case of fees payable to it) for distribution, in the case of commitment fees and participation fees, to the Lenders. Fees
paid shall not be refundable under any circumstances.
Section 2.13. Interest.
(a) The
Loans comprising each ABR Borrowing (including each Swingline Loan) shall bear interest at the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate plus the
Applicable Rate.
69
(b) The
Loans comprising each Term Benchmark Borrowing shall bear interest at the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for the Interest Period in effect for
such Borrowing plus the Applicable Rate.
(c) Each
RFR Loan shall bear interest at a rate per annum equal to the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR plus the Applicable Rate.
(d) Each
Protective Advance and each Overadvance shall bear interest at the Alternate Base Rate plus the Applicable Rate for Revolving
Loans plus 2% per annum.
(e) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, during the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders may, at
their option, by written notice to the Borrower Representative (which notice may be revoked at the option of the Required Lenders notwithstanding
any provision of Section 9.02 requiring the consent of “each Lender affected thereby” for reductions in interest
rates), declare that (i) all Loans shall bear interest at 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to such Loans as
provided in the preceding paragraphs of this Section or (ii) in the case of any other amount outstanding hereunder, such amount
shall accrue at 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to such fee or other obligation as provided hereunder, in each case, as
of the first date that any such Event of Default occurred; provided that no notice shall be required and the foregoing rates shall
automatically take effect upon the occurrence of an Event of Default under clause (a), (h), (i) or (j) of
Article VII.
(f) Accrued
interest on each Loan (for ABR Loans, accrued through the last day of the prior calendar month) shall be payable in arrears on each Interest
Payment Date for such Loan and upon termination of the Commitments; provided that (i) interest accrued pursuant to paragraph (e) of
this Section shall be payable on demand, (ii) in the event of any repayment or prepayment of any Loan (other than a prepayment
of an ABR Revolving Loan prior to the end of the Availability Period), accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall
be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment and (iii) in the event of any conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan prior
to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued interest on such Loan shall be payable on the effective date of such conversion.
(g) Interest
computed by reference to the Term SOFR Rate, the REVSOFR30 Rate or Daily Simple SOFR shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360
days. Interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall
be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year). In each case interest shall be payable for the actual number
of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily
basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. The applicable Alternate Base
Rate, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR, Daily Simple SOFR, Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, Term SOFR Rate, Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate or REVSOFR30 Rate
shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.
Section 2.14. Alternate
Rate of Interest; Illegality.
(a) Subject
to clauses (c), (d), (e), (f) and (g) of this Section 2.14, if:
(i) the
Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) (A) prior to commencement
of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Borrowing, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted
Term SOFR Rate (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), for such Interest Period,
(B) at any time, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate or the REVSOFR30 Rate
(including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis), or (C) at any time, that adequate
and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR; or
70
(ii) the
Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that (A) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark
Borrowing, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender)
of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing for such Interest Period, (B) at any time, the Adjusted
REVSOFR30 Rate will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its
Loan) included in such Borrowing, or (C) at any time, the applicable Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR will not adequately and fairly reflect
the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining their Loans (or its Loan) included in such Borrowing;
then the Administrative Agent shall give notice
thereof to the Borrower Representative and the Lenders through Electronic System as provided in Section 9.01 as promptly
as practicable thereafter and, until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the
circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower Representative
delivers a new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance
with the terms of Section 2.03, (1) any Interest Election Request that requests the conversion of any Borrowing to,
or continuation of any Borrowing as, a Term Benchmark Borrowing and any Borrowing Request that requests a Term Benchmark Borrowing shall
instead be deemed to be an Interest Election Request or a Borrowing Request, as applicable, for (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as
the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an
ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above
and (2) any Borrowing Request that requests an Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Borrowing shall instead be deemed to be a Borrowing Request,
as applicable, for an ABR Borrowing; provided that if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect only one Type of Borrowings,
then all other Types of Borrowings shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan, Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loan or RFR Loan
is outstanding on the date of the Borrower Representative’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in
this Section 2.14(a) with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark Loan, Adjusted REVSOFR30
Rate Loan or RFR Loan, then until (x) the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower Representative and the Lenders that the circumstances
giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark and (y) the Borrower Representative delivers a
new Interest Election Request in accordance with the terms of Section 2.08 or a new Borrowing Request in accordance with
the terms of Section 2.03, (1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such
Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple
SOFR is not also the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted
Daily Simple SOFR also is the subject of Section 2.14(a)(i) or (ii) above, on such day, and (2) any
Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loan or any RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute
an ABR Loan.
(b) If
any Lender determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or if any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful,
for any Lender or its applicable lending office to make, maintain, fund or continue any Loans whose interest is determined by reference
to SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the REVSOFR30 Rate, the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate or Term SOFR, then,
upon notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower Representative through the Administrative Agent, (i) any obligations of such
Lender to make, maintain, fund or continue Term Benchmark Loans or to convert ABR Borrowings to Term Benchmark Borrowings will be suspended
and (ii) the interest rate for ABR Loans and Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined
by the Administrative Agent without reference to SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the REVSOFR30 Rate,
the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate or Term SOFR, in each case, until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative
that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrowers will upon demand
from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), either convert all Term Benchmark Borrowings of such Lender to ABR Borrowings
(the interest rate for ABR Loans shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, be determined by the Administrative Agent without reference
to SOFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate, the REVSOFR30 Rate, the Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate or Term SOFR) or
prepay all such Term Benchmark Borrowings, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue
to maintain such Term Benchmark Borrowings to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans.
Upon any such conversion or prepayment, the Borrowers will also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted or prepaid, together
with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 2.16.
71
(c) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document (and any Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document”
for purposes of this Section 2.14), if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred
prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined
in accordance with clause (1) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such
Benchmark Replacement will replace such Benchmark (including any related adjustments) for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document
in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any
other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause
(2) of the definition of “Benchmark Replacement” for such Benchmark Replacement Date, such Benchmark Replacement will
replace such Benchmark for all purposes hereunder and under any Loan Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 p.m. (New
York City time) on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the date notice of such Benchmark Replacement is provided to the Lenders without
any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document so long as the Administrative
Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required
Lenders.
(d) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement
Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments
implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party
to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.
(e) The
Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower Representative and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition
Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming
Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (g) below and (v) the commencement
or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative
Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.14, including any determination with
respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take
or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their
sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly
required pursuant to this Section 2.14.
72
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark
Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Rate or REVSOFR30 Rate) and either (A) any
tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected
by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark
has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative,
then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such
time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above
either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is
not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark
Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at
or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.
(g) Upon
the Borrower Representative’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrowers may revoke
any request for (i) a Term Benchmark Borrowing conversion to or continuation of Term Benchmark Loans to be made, converted or continued
or (ii) an Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Borrowing or a RFR Borrowing, or conversion to an Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loan or RFR Loan, during
any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted (1) any such request for a
Term Benchmark Borrowing into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to (A) solely with respect to any such request for a Term
Benchmark Borrowing, an RFR Borrowing so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event or
(B) an ABR Borrowing if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event and (2) any such request
for an Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Borrowing into a request for an Alternate Base Rate Borrowing. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period
or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of Alternate Base Rate based upon
the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base
Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan, Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loan or RFR Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower Representative’s
receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a Relevant Rate applicable to such Term Benchmark
Loan, Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loan or RFR Loan, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 2.14,
(1) any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative
Agent to, and shall constitute, (x) an RFR Loan so long as the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is not the subject of a Benchmark Transition
Event, on such day or (y) an ABR Loan if the Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR is the subject of a Benchmark Transition Event, on such
day and (2) any Adjusted REVSOFR30 Rate Loan or RFR Loan shall on and from such day be converted by the Administrative Agent to,
and shall constitute an Alternate Base Rate Loan.
Section 2.15. Increased
Costs.
(a) If
any Change in Law shall:
(i) impose,
modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, liquidity or similar requirement (including any compulsory loan requirement,
insurance charge or other assessment) against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended by, any Lender or the
Issuing Bank;
73
(ii) impose
on any Lender or Issuing Bank or the applicable offshore interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting
this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein; or
(iii) subject
any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of
the definition of Excluded Taxes and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments,
or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;
and the result of any of the foregoing shall
be to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient of making, continuing, converting into or maintaining any
Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, Issuing Bank or other Recipient
of participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, Issuing
Bank or other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then the Borrowers will pay to such Lender, Issuing
Bank or other Recipient, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, Issuing Bank or other
Recipient, as the case may be, for such additional costs incurred or reduction suffered as reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and
generally consistent with similarly situated customers of the Administrative Agent, such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, under
agreements having provisions similar to this Section 2.15, after consideration of such factors as the Administrative Agent,
such Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, then reasonably determines to be relevant).
(b) If
any Lender or the Issuing Bank determines 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 the Issuing Bank’s capital or on the capital of such Lender’s or
the Issuing Bank’s holding company, if any, as a consequence of this Agreement, the Commitments of, or the Loans made by, or participations
in Letters of Credit held by, such Lender, or the Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank, to a level below that which such Lender
or the Issuing Bank or such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company could have achieved but for such Change in Law
(taking into consideration such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s policies and the policies of such Lender’s or the Issuing
Bank’s holding company with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity), then from time to time the Borrowers will pay to such Lender
or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender or the Issuing Bank or such
Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s holding company for any such reduction suffered as reasonably determined by the Administrative
Agent or such Lender (which determination shall be made in good faith (and not on an arbitrary or capricious basis) and generally consistent
with similarly situated customers of the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, under agreements having provisions similar
to this Section 2.15, after consideration of such factors as the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, then
reasonably determines to be relevant).
(c) A
certificate of a Lender or Issuing Bank setting forth the amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender or Issuing Bank or its
holding company, as the case may be, as specified in paragraph (a) or (b) of this Section shall be
delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender or Issuing
Bank, as the case may be, the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
74
Failure or delay on the part
of any Lender or the Issuing Bank to demand compensation pursuant to this Section shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s
or the Issuing Bank’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrowers shall not be required to compensate
a Lender or the Issuing Bank pursuant to this Section for any increased costs or reductions incurred more than 180 days prior
to the date that such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, notifies the Borrower Representative of the Change in Law giving
rise to such increased costs or reductions and of such Lender’s or the Issuing Bank’s intention to claim compensation therefor;
provided, further, that if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the
180-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.
Section 2.16. Break
Funding Payments.
(a) With
respect to Loans that are not RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any Term Benchmark Loan other than
on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or an optional or mandatory prepayment
of Loans), (ii) the conversion of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto,
(iii) the failure to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant
hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked under Section 2.11(a) and is revoked in accordance therewith)
or (iv) the assignment of any Term Benchmark Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto as a result
of a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.19 or 9.02(e), then, in any such event, the Borrowers
shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to such event.
(b) With
respect to RFR Loans, in the event of (i) the payment of any principal of any RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date applicable
thereto (including as a result of an Event of Default or an optional or mandatory prepayment of Loans), (ii) the failure to borrow
or prepay any RFR Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto (regardless of whether such notice may be revoked
under Section 2.11(a) and is revoked in accordance therewith) or (iii) the assignment of any RFR Loan other than
on the Interest Payment Date applicable thereto as a result of a request by the Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.19
or 9.02(e), then, in any such event, the Borrowers shall compensate each Lender for the loss, cost and expense attributable to
such event.
(c) A
certificate of any Lender setting forth any amount or amounts that such Lender is entitled to receive pursuant to this Section 2.16
shall be delivered to the Borrower Representative and shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrowers shall pay such Lender
the amount shown as due on any such certificate within ten (10) days after receipt thereof.
Section 2.17. Taxes.
(a) Payments
Free of Taxes. Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of any Loan Party under any Loan Document shall be made without
deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any applicable law (as determined in the good faith
discretion of an applicable Withholding Agent) requires the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by a Withholding
Agent, then the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding and shall timely pay the full amount
deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and, if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax,
then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased as necessary so that after such deduction or withholding has been
made (including such deductions and withholdings applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 2.17) the applicable
Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.
75
(b) Payment
of Other Taxes by the Borrowers. The relevant Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with
applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for, Other Taxes.
(c) Evidence
of Payments. As soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.17,
such Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority
evidencing such payment, a copy of the return reporting such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the
Administrative Agent.
(d) Indemnification
by the Loan Parties. The Loan Parties shall jointly and severally indemnify each Recipient, within 10 days after demand therefor,
for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under
this Section) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient and any reasonable
expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted
by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the relevant Borrower
by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall
be conclusive absent manifest error.
(e) Indemnification
by the Lenders. Each Lender shall severally indemnify the Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand therefor, for (i) any
Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the Administrative
Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Loan Parties to do so), (ii) any Taxes attributable
to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 9.04(c) relating to the maintenance of a Participant
Register and (iii) any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative
Agent in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such
Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment
or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes
the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under any Loan Document or otherwise
payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lender from any other source against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this
paragraph (e).
(f) Status
of Lenders.
(i) Any
Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall
deliver to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative
Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will permit
such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by
the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested
by the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such
Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements and to comply with any such information reporting requirements.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation
(other than such documentation set forth in Section 2.17(f)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall
not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any
material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender.
76
(ii) Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that any Borrower is a U.S. Person:
(iii) any
Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender
becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative
Agent), executed copies of IRS Form W-9 (or any successor form) certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. Federal backup
withholding tax;
(iv) any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), whichever of the following
is applicable;
(A) in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect
to payments of interest under any Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any applicable
successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest”
article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN
or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (or any applicable successor form) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. Federal withholding
Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;
(B) in
the case of a Foreign Lender claiming that its extension of credit will generate U.S. effectively connected income, executed copies
of IRS Form W-8ECI;
(C) 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 F-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank”
within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of such Borrower within the
meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of
the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E
(or any applicable successor form); or
(D) to
the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS
Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2
or Exhibit F-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable (including
any applicable successor form); provided that if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners
of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate
substantially in the form of Exhibit F-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;
77
(v) any
Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number
of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement
(and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of such Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other
form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. Federal withholding Tax, duly completed,
together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit such Borrower or the Administrative Agent
to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and
(vi) if
a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to U.S. Federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender
were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or
1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to such Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times
prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by such 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 such Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for such Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with
their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine
the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause (D), “FATCA” shall
include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.
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 Representative and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do
so.
(g) Treatment
of Certain Refunds. If any party determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any
Taxes as to which it has been indemnified pursuant to this Section 2.17 (including by the payment of additional amounts pursuant
to this Section 2.17), it shall pay to the indemnifying party an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity
payments made under this Section 2.17 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses
(including Taxes) of such indemnified party and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority
with respect to such refund). Such indemnifying party, upon the request of such indemnified party, shall repay to such indemnified party
the amount paid over pursuant to this paragraph (g) (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by
the relevant Governmental Authority) in the event that such indemnified party is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this paragraph (g), in no event will the indemnified party be required to pay
any amount to an indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph (g) the payment of which would place the indemnified
party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than the indemnified party would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification
and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts
with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This paragraph shall not be construed to require any indemnified party to make available
its Tax returns (or any other information relating to its Taxes that it deems confidential) to the indemnifying party or any other Person.
78
(h) Survival.
Each party’s obligations under this Section 2.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative
Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments and the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all obligations under any Loan Document.
(i) Defined
Terms. For purposes of this Section 2.17, the term “Lender” includes each Issuing Bank and the term
“applicable law” includes FATCA.
Section 2.18. Payments
Generally; Allocation of Proceeds; Pro Rata Treatment; Sharing of Set-offs.
(a) The
Borrowers shall make each payment required to be made by them hereunder (whether of principal, interest, fees or reimbursement of LC
Disbursements, or of amounts payable under Section 2.15, 2.16 or 2.17, or otherwise) prior to 4:00 p.m.,
Chicago 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 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 applicable office
or offices as described in the Administrative Questionnaire provided by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers from time to time,
except payments to be made directly to an Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant
to Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 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 accrue and be payable for
the period of such extension. All payments hereunder shall be made in Dollars.
(b) Any
proceeds of Collateral received by the Administrative Agent (i) not constituting either (A) a specific payment of principal,
interest, fees or other sum payable under the Loan Documents (which shall be applied as specified by the Borrowers), (B) a mandatory
prepayment (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.11) or (C) amounts to be applied from the Collection
Account when a Cash Dominion Period is in effect (which shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.10(b)) or (ii) after
an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent so elects or the Required Lenders so direct, such funds
shall be applied, subject to the terms of the ABL/Fixed Asset Intercreditor Agreement, ratably first, to pay any fees, indemnities,
or expense reimbursements including amounts then due to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks from the Borrowers (other than
in connection with Banking Services Obligations or Swap Agreement Obligations), second, to pay any fees, indemnities, or expense
reimbursements then due to the Lenders from the Borrowers (other than in connection with Banking Services Obligations or Swap Agreement
Obligations), third, to pay interest due in respect of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, fourth, to pay the principal
of the Overadvances and Protective Advances, fifth, to pay interest then due and payable on the Loans (other than the Overadvances
and Protective Advances) ratably, sixth, to prepay principal on the Loans (other than the Overadvances and Protective Advances)
and unreimbursed LC Disbursements and to pay any amounts owing with respect to Swap Agreement Obligations up to and including the amount
most recently provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22, for which Reserves have been established ratably,
seventh, to pay an amount to the Administrative Agent equal to one hundred three percent (103%) of the aggregate undrawn face
amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit and the aggregate amount of any unpaid LC Disbursements, to be held as cash collateral for
such Obligations, eighth, to payment of any amounts owing with respect to Banking Services Obligations and Swap Agreement Obligations
up to and including the amount most recently provided to the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.22, and to the extent
not paid pursuant to clause sixth above, and ninth, to the payment of any other Secured Obligation due to the Administrative Agent
or any Lender by the Borrowers. Notwithstanding the foregoing amounts received from any Loan Party shall not be applied to any Excluded
Swap Obligation of such Loan Party. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, unless so directed by the Borrower
Representative, or unless a Default is in existence, neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall apply any payment which it
receives to any Term Benchmark Loan of a Class, except (a) on the expiration date of the Interest Period applicable thereto or (b) in
the event, and only to the extent, that there are no outstanding ABR Loans of the same Class and, in any such event, the Borrowers
shall pay the break funding payment required in accordance with Section 2.16. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall
have the continuing and exclusive right to apply and reverse and reapply any and all such proceeds and payments to any portion of the
Secured Obligations.
79
(c) At
the election of the Administrative Agent, all payments of principal, interest, LC Disbursements, fees, premiums, reimbursable expenses
(including, without limitation, all reimbursement for fees, costs and expenses pursuant to Section 9.03), and other sums
payable under the Loan Documents, may be paid from the proceeds of Borrowings made hereunder whether made following a request by the
Borrower Representative pursuant to Section 2.03 or a deemed request as provided in this Section or may be deducted
from any deposit account of any Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent (and the Administrative Agent will provide reasonably
prompt notice of such deduction to the Borrower Representative, provided that failure to provide such notice shall not limit the
ability of the Administrative Agent to make such deduction). The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize (i) the Administrative Agent
to make a Borrowing for the purpose of paying each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount
due under the Loan Documents and agrees that all such amounts charged shall constitute Loans (including Swingline Loans and Overadvances,
but such a Borrowing may only constitute a Protective Advance if it is to reimburse costs, fees and expenses as described in Section 9.03)
and that all such Borrowings shall be deemed to have been requested pursuant to Section 2.03, 2.04 or 2.05,
as applicable, and (ii) the Administrative Agent to charge any deposit account of any Borrower maintained with the Administrative
Agent for each payment of principal, interest and fees as it becomes due hereunder or any other amount due under the Loan Documents.
(d) If,
except as otherwise expressly provided herein, any Lender shall, by exercising any right of set-off or counterclaim or otherwise, obtain
payment in respect of any principal of or interest on any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements resulting in such Lender
receiving payment of a greater proportion of the aggregate amount of its Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans
and accrued interest thereon than the proportion received by any other similarly situated Lender, then the Lender receiving such greater
proportion shall purchase (for cash at face value) participations in the Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans
of other Lenders to the extent necessary so that the benefit of all such payments shall be shared by all such Lenders ratably in accordance
with the aggregate amount of principal of and accrued interest on their respective Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline
Loans; provided that (i) if any such participations are purchased and all or any portion of the payment giving rise thereto
is recovered, such participations shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such recovery, without interest,
and (ii) the provisions of this paragraph shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by the Borrowers pursuant to and in
accordance with the express terms of this Agreement or any payment obtained by a Lender as consideration for the assignment of or sale
of a participation in any of its Loans or participations in LC Disbursements or Swingline Loans to any assignee or participant, other
than to the Borrowers or any Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof (as to which the provisions of this paragraph shall apply). Each Borrower
consents to the foregoing and agrees, to the extent it may effectively do so under applicable law, that any Lender acquiring a participation
pursuant to the foregoing arrangements may exercise against such Borrower rights of set-off and counterclaim with respect to such participation
as fully as if such Lender were a direct creditor of such Borrower in the amount of such participation.
80
(e) Unless
the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower Representative prior to the date on which any payment is due to
the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment,
the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance
upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank, as the case may be, the amount due. In such event, if the Borrowers
have not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders or the Issuing Banks, 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 Banks 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.
(f) If
any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it hereunder, then the Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding
any contrary provision hereof), (i) apply any amounts thereafter received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender
for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or the Issuing Bank to satisfy such Lender’s obligations to it
under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid and/or (ii) hold any such amounts in a segregated
account over which the Administrative Agent shall have exclusive control as cash collateral for, and application to, any future funding
obligations of such Lender under any such Section; in the case of each of clauses (i) and (ii) above, in
any order as determined by the Administrative Agent in its discretion.
(g) The
Administrative Agent may from time to time provide the Borrowers with account statements or invoices with respect to any of the Secured
Obligations (the “Statements”). The Administrative Agent is under no duty or obligation to provide Statements, which,
if provided, will be solely for the Borrowers’ convenience. Statements may contain estimates of the amounts owed during the relevant
billing period, whether of principal, interest, fees or other Secured Obligations. If the Borrowers pay the full amount indicated on
a Statement on or before the due date indicated on such Statement, the Borrowers shall not be in default of payment with respect to the
billing period indicated on such Statement; provided, that acceptance by the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the Lenders, of
any payment that is less than the total amount actually due at that time (including but not limited to any past due amounts) shall not
constitute a waiver of the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ right to receive payment in full at another time.
Section 2.19. Mitigation
Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.
(a) If
any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, or if any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified Taxes or additional
amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17, then such Lender
shall use reasonable efforts to designate a different lending office for funding or booking its Loans hereunder or to assign its rights
and obligations hereunder to another of its offices, branches or affiliates, if, in the judgment of such Lender, such designation or
assignment (i) would eliminate or reduce amounts payable pursuant to Section 2.15 or 2.17, as the case may be,
in the future and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense and would not otherwise be disadvantageous
to such Lender. The Borrowers hereby agree to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such
designation or assignment.
81
(b) If
(i) any Lender requests compensation under Section 2.15, (ii) any Borrower is required to pay any Indemnified
Taxes or additional amounts to any Lender or any Governmental Authority for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 2.17
or (iii) any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the Company 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 9.04), all its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 2.15
or 2.17) and obligations under the Loan Documents to an assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another
Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment); provided that (i) the Company shall have received the prior written consent
of the Administrative Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender), which consent shall
not unreasonably be withheld, (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its
Loans and participations in LC Disbursements and Swingline Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable
to it hereunder, from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Company (in the
case of all other amounts) and (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Section 2.15
or payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.17, 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 Company to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply. Each party
hereto agrees that (x) an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption
executed by the Borrower Representative, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating
an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties
are participants), and (y) 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 that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by
the parties thereto.
Section 2.20. Defaulting
Lenders. Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then the following
provisions shall apply for so long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender:
(a) fees
shall cease to accrue on the unfunded portion of the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(a);
(b) any
payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting Lender
(whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 2.18(b) or otherwise) or received by the Administrative
Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 9.08 shall be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the
Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent
hereunder; second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to any Issuing Bank or Swingline
Lender hereunder; third, to cash collateralize the Issuing Bank’s LC Exposure with respect to such Defaulting Lender in
accordance with this Section; fourth, as the Borrower Representative may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists),
to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement,
as determined by the Administrative Agent; fifth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower Representative,
to be held in a deposit account and released pro rata in order to (x) satisfy such Defaulting Lender’s potential future funding
obligations with respect to Loans under this Agreement and (y) cash collateralize the Issuing Bank’s future LC Exposure with
respect to such Defaulting Lender with respect to future Letters of Credit issued under this Agreement, in accordance with this Section;
sixth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of
a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender, the Issuing Bank or Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result
of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; seventh, so
long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a
court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s
breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document; and eighth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise
directed by a court of competent jurisdiction; provided that if (x) such payment is a payment of the principal amount of
any Loans or LC Disbursements in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has not fully funded its appropriate share, and (y) such
Loans were made or the related Letters of Credit were issued at a time when the conditions set forth in Section 4.02 were
satisfied or waived, such payment shall be applied solely to pay the Loans of, and LC Disbursements owed to, all non-Defaulting Lenders
on a pro rata basis prior to being applied to the payment of any Loans of, or LC Disbursements owed to, such Defaulting Lender until
such time as all Loans and funded and unfunded participations in the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting Lender’s
LC Exposure and Swingline Loans are held by the Lenders pro rata in accordance with the Commitments without giving effect to clause
(d) below. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to
pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section shall be deemed paid to and redirected
by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto;
82
(c) such
Defaulting Lender shall not have the right to vote on any issue on which voting is required (other than to the extent expressly provided
in Section 9.02(b)) and the Commitment and Revolving Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall not be included in determining
whether the Required Lenders have taken or may take any action hereunder (including any consent to any amendment, waiver or other modification
pursuant to Section 9.02) or under any other Loan Document; provided, that, except as otherwise provided in Section 9.02,
this clause (b) shall not apply to the vote of a Defaulting Lender in the case of an amendment, waiver or other modification
requiring the consent of such Lender or each Lender directly affected thereby;
(d) if
any Swingline Exposure or LC Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:
(i) all
or any part of the Swingline Exposure and LC Exposure of such Defaulting Lender shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders
in accordance with their respective Applicable Percentages but only (x) to the extent that the conditions set forth in Section 4.02
are satisfied at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrower Representative shall have otherwise notified the Administrative
Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such conditions are satisfied at such time)
and (y) to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting Lender’s
Revolving Exposure and to exceed its Commitment;
(ii) if
the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall within
one (1) Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent (x) first, prepay such Swingline Exposure and (y) second,
cash collateralize for the benefit of the relevant Issuing Banks only the Borrowers’ obligations corresponding to such Defaulting
Lender’s LC Exposure (after giving effect to any partial reallocation pursuant to clause (i) above) in accordance
with the procedures set forth in Section 2.06(j) for so long as such LC Exposure is outstanding;
(iii) if
the Borrowers cash collateralize any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure pursuant to clause (ii) above,
the Borrowers shall not be required to pay any fees to such Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 2.12(b) with respect
to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure during the period such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is cash collateralized;
83
(iv) if
the LC Exposure of the non-Defaulting Lenders is reallocated pursuant to clause (i) above, then the fees payable to
the Lenders pursuant to Section 2.12(a) and Section 2.12(b) shall be adjusted in accordance with
such non-Defaulting Lenders’ Applicable Percentages; and
(v) if
all or any portion of such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure is neither reallocated nor cash collateralized pursuant to clause (i) or
(ii) above, then, without prejudice to any rights or remedies of any Issuing Bank or any other Lender hereunder, all letter
of credit fees payable under Section 2.12(b) with respect to such Defaulting Lender’s LC Exposure shall be payable
to the relevant Issuing Banks until and to the extent that such LC Exposure is reallocated and/or cash collateralized; and
(e) so
long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Issuing Banks shall not be required to issue, amend, renew, extend or increase any Letter
of Credit, unless it is satisfied that such Defaulting Lender’s then outstanding LC Exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments
of the non-Defaulting Lenders and/or cash collateral will be provided by the Borrowers in accordance with Section 2.20(d),
and LC Exposure related to any newly issued or increased Letter of Credit shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner
consistent with Section 2.20(d)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).
If (i) a Bankruptcy
Event or a Bail-In Action with respect to a Lender Parent shall occur following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue
or (ii) any Issuing Bank has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more
other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, no Issuing Bank shall be required to issue, amend or increase any Letter
of Credit, unless such Issuing Bank shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrowers or such Lender, satisfactory to such Issuing
Bank to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.
In the event that the Administrative
Agent, the Borrower Representative and each Issuing Bank each agrees that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that
caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then the LC Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such
Lender’s Commitment and on such date such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans of the other Lenders (other than Swingline
Loans) as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans in accordance with its
Applicable Percentage, whereupon such Lender will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that, no adjustments will be made
retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Company while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender;
provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from
Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s
having been a Defaulting Lender.
Section 2.21. Returned
Payments. If after receipt of any payment which is applied to the payment of all or any part of the Obligations (including a payment
effected through exercise of a right of setoff), the Administrative Agent or any Lender is for any reason compelled to surrender such
payment or proceeds to any Person because such payment or application of proceeds is invalidated, declared fraudulent, set aside, determined
to be void or voidable as a preference, impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds, or for any other reason (including pursuant
to any settlement entered into by the Administrative Agent or such Lender in its discretion), then the Obligations or part thereof intended
to be satisfied shall be revived and continued and this Agreement shall continue in full force as if such payment or proceeds had not
been received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall be and remain effective
notwithstanding any contrary action which may have been taken by the Administrative Agent or any Lender in reliance upon such payment
or application of proceeds. The provisions of this Section 2.21 shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
84
Section 2.22. Banking
Services and Swap Agreements. Each Lender or Affiliate thereof providing Banking Services (excluding Lease Financing) for, or having
Swap Agreements with, any Loan Party or any Subsidiary or Affiliate of a Loan Party shall deliver to the Administrative Agent, promptly
after entering into such Banking Services or Swap Agreements, written notice setting forth the aggregate amount of all Banking Services
Obligations and Swap Agreement Obligations of such Loan Party or Subsidiary or Affiliate thereof to such Lender or Affiliate (whether
matured or unmatured, absolute or contingent). In addition, each such Lender or Affiliate thereof shall deliver to the Administrative
Agent, from time to time after a significant change therein or upon a request therefor, a summary of the amounts due or to become due
in respect of such Banking Services Obligations and Swap Agreement Obligations. The most recent information provided to the Administrative
Agent shall be used in determining the amounts to be applied in respect of such Banking Services Obligations and/or Swap Agreement Obligations
pursuant to Section 2.18(b) and which tier of the waterfall, contained in Section 2.18(b), such Banking
Services Obligations and/or Swap Agreement Obligations will be placed.

forward-looking information and information of a general economic or industry-specific nature, furnished by or on behalf of the Company
or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on or prior to the Effective Date, when taken as a whole and after giving
effect to all supplements and updates thereto, did not (when furnished) contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state
a material fact necessary in order to make the statements contained therein not materially misleading (when taken as a whole and after
giving effect to all such supplements and updates thereto) in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made; provided
that, with respect to the Projections furnished by or on behalf of the Company or any Subsidiary to the Administrative Agent or any Lender
on or prior to the Effective Date pursuant to or in connection with the negotiation of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or included
therein (the “Projections”), the Company represents only that such information was prepared in good faith based upon
assumptions believed by the Company to be reasonable at the time prepared (it being understood by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders
that any such Projections are as to future events and are not to be viewed as facts and are subject to significant uncertainties and
contingencies, many of which are beyond the control of the Company or the Subsidiaries, that no assurances can be given that such Projections
will be realized and that actual results during the period or periods covered by any such Projections may differ materially from the
projected results contained therein and that such differences may be material). As of the Effective Date, to the best knowledge of any

of each Borrowing or drawing under each Letter of Credit, not more than 25% of the value of the assets (either of any Loan Party individually
or of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis) will be Margin Stock.

Section 3.17. Solvency.
(a) Immediately
after the consummation of the Transactions to occur on the Effective Date and the making of each Loan on the Effective Date and the application

exceed the present fair saleable value of the assets of the Company and its Subsidiaries, taken as a whole; (ii) the capital of

not intend to incur, or believe that they will incur, debts including current obligations beyond their ability to pay such debt as they
mature in the ordinary course of business. For the purposes hereof, the amount of any contingent liability at any time shall be computed
as the amount that, in light of all of the facts and circumstances existing at such time, represents the amount that can reasonably be
expected to become an actual or matured liability (irrespective of whether such contingent liabilities meet the criteria for accrual
under Statement of Financial Accounting Standard No. 5).
(b) The
Company does not intend to, nor will it permit any of its Subsidiaries to, and the Company does not believe that it or any of its Subsidiaries
will, incur debts beyond its ability to pay such debts as they mature, taking into account the timing of and amounts of cash to be received

companies, insurance on all their real and personal property in such amounts, subject to such deductibles and self-insurance retentions
and covering such properties and risks as are adequate and customarily maintained by companies engaged in the same or similar businesses
operating in the same or similar locations.
88
Section 3.19. Security
Interest in Collateral. The Collateral Documents, upon execution and delivery thereof by the parties thereto, will create in favor
of the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Secured Parties, a valid and enforceable security interest in the Collateral covered
thereby and (i) when the Collateral constituting certificated securities (as defined in the UCC) is delivered to the Administrative
Agent, together with instruments of transfer duly endorsed in blank, the Liens under the Collateral Documents will constitute a fully
perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the respective Loan Parties thereunder in such Collateral, prior and
superior in right to any other Person, except for Liens permitted by Section 6.02 and (ii) when financing statements
in appropriate form are filed in the applicable filing offices, the security interest created under the Collateral Documents will constitute
a fully perfected security interest in all right, title and interest of the respective Loan Parties in the remaining Collateral to the
extent perfection can be obtained by filing UCC financing statements, prior and superior to the rights of any other Person, except for
Liens permitted by Section 6.02.
Section 3.20. Employment
Matters. As of the Effective Date, there are no strikes, lockouts or slowdowns against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary pending or,
to the knowledge of any Loan Party, threatened, that, in the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse
Effect. The hours worked by and payments made to employees of the Loan Parties and their Subsidiaries have not been in violation of the
Fair Labor Standards Act or any other applicable Federal, state, local or foreign law dealing with such matters in a manner that, in
the aggregate, could reasonably be expected to result in a Material Adverse Effect. All payments due from any Loan Party or any Subsidiary,
or for which any claim may be made against any Loan Party or any Subsidiary, on account of wages and employee health and welfare insurance
and other benefits, have been paid or accrued as a liability on the books of such Loan Party or such Subsidiary, except those that could
not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.
Section 3.21. Anti-Corruption
Laws and Sanctions. The Company has implemented and maintains in effect policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance
by the Company, its Subsidiaries and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents with Anti-Corruption Laws and applicable
Sanctions, and the Company, its Subsidiaries and to the knowledge of the Company its officers, directors, employees and agents that will
act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facilities established hereby, are in compliance with Anti-Corruption
Laws and applicable Sanctions in all material respects. None of (a) the Company, any Subsidiary or to the knowledge of the Company
or such Subsidiary any of their respective directors, officers or employees, or (b) to the knowledge of the Company, any agent
of the Company or any Subsidiary that will act in any capacity in connection with or benefit from the credit facility established hereby,
is a Sanctioned Person. No Borrowing or Letter of Credit, use of proceeds or other Transactions will violate any Anti-Corruption Law
or Sanctions applicable to any party hereto.
Section 3.22. Affected
Financial Institutions. No Loan Party is an Affected Financial Institution.
Section 3.23. Use
of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans have been used and will be used, whether directly or indirectly as set forth in Section 5.08.
Section 3.24. Plan

the meaning of the Plan Asset Regulations), and neither the execution, delivery nor performance of the transactions contemplated under
this Agreement, including the making of any Loan and the issuance of any Letter of Credit hereunder, will give rise to a non-exempt prohibited

for the benefit of the Secured Parties to secure the Secured Obligations in accordance with the terms and conditions of the Collateral
Documents on a first priority basis, subject in any case to Liens permitted by Section 6.02. Without limiting the generality

to be delivered hereunder until the date that is ninety (90) days (or such later date as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent
in its reasonable discretion) after (A) the Effective Date, with respect to Material Real Property owned by the Company or any
other Loan Party on the Effective Date or (B) the date of acquisition thereof, with respect to Material Real Property acquired
by the Company or any other Loan Party after the Effective Date and (ii) no foreign pledge documentation in respect of the pledge
of Equity Interests of a Pledge Subsidiary that is a Material Foreign Subsidiary shall be required hereunder (A) until the date
that is ninety (90) days after the Effective Date or such later date as the Administrative Agent may agree in the exercise of its reasonable
discretion with respect thereto, (B) to the extent the Administrative Agent or its counsel determines that such pledge would not
provide material credit support for the benefit of the Secured Parties pursuant to legally valid, binding and enforceable pledge agreements,
and (C) to the extent the Company reasonably determines in its good faith judgment that such pledge would result in a material
adverse tax consequence to the Company or any Subsidiary.
98

at any time after the Effective Date any Subsidiary of the Company that is not a Loan Party shall become party to a guaranty of, or grant
a Lien on any assets to secure, the Term Loans/Notes Obligations, any Subordinated Indebtedness or any other Material Indebtedness of
a Loan Party, the Company shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, within ten (10) days thereof (or such later
date as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent) cause such Subsidiary to comply with Section 5.14(a) and (b) (but
without giving effect to the 30-day grace periods provided therein).
(d) Without
limiting the foregoing, each Loan Party will, and will cause each Subsidiary to, execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered,
to the Administrative Agent such documents, agreements and instruments, and take or cause to be taken such further actions (including
the filing and recording of financing statements, fixture filings, mortgages, deeds of trust and other documents and such other actions
or deliveries of the type required by Section 4.01, as applicable), which may be required by any Requirement of Law or which
the Administrative Agent may, from time to time, reasonably request to carry out the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the other
Loan Documents and to ensure perfection and priority of the Liens created or intended to be created by the Collateral Documents, subject
to the terms, limitations, and exceptions set forth herein or in any Collateral Document, all at the expense of the Loan Parties, in
each case to the extent required by, and subject to the limitations and exceptions of, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.
(e) If
any material assets (other than Excluded Assets or other assets not required to be Collateral) are acquired by any Loan Party after the
Effective Date (other than assets constituting Collateral under the applicable Collateral Documents that become subject to the Lien granted
by the Loan Parties in favor of the Administrative Agent in support of all of the Secured Obligations upon acquisition thereof), the
Borrower Representative will promptly (i) notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, if requested by the Administrative Agent
or the Required Lenders, cause such assets to be subjected to a Lien securing the Secured Obligations and (ii) take such actions
as shall be necessary or reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent to grant and perfect such Liens, subject to clause (f) of
this Section, all at the expense of the Loan Parties, subject, however, to the terms, limitations and exceptions set forth herein or
in any Collateral Document; provided that with respect to any Material Real Property acquired by the Company or any other Loan
Party after the Effective Date (including in connection with a Permitted Acquisition), which property would not be automatically subject
to any other Lien pursuant to an existing Collateral Document, no Mortgage or Mortgage Instrument shall be required to be delivered hereunder
prior to the date that is one hundred twenty (120) days after the acquisition thereof as determined by the Borrower Representative (acting
reasonably in good faith) (or such later date as may be agreed upon by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion).
(f) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the parties hereto acknowledge and agree that (i) in circumstances where the Administrative Agent reasonably determines
that the cost or effort of obtaining or perfecting a security interest in any asset that constitutes Collateral is excessive in relation
to the benefit afforded to the Secured Parties thereby, the Administrative Agent may exclude such Collateral from the creation and perfection
requirements set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (ii) the Administrative Agent may grant extensions of
time for the creation or perfection of Liens in particular property (including extensions of time beyond the Effective Date) where it
determines that such creation or perfection cannot be accomplished without undue effort or expense by the time or times at which it would
otherwise be required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

Documents (or any replacements, substitutions, extensions or renewals thereof) or pursuant to which such Indebtedness is issued where
such amendment, modification or supplement amends, modifies or adds any provision thereof in a manner which (i) when taken as a
whole, is materially adverse the Lenders or (ii) is more onerous than the applicable provision in this Agreement (except in each
case to the extent permitted under the applicable subordination agreement governing such Subordinated Indebtedness).

the Company or any Subsidiary than those contained in this Agreement;

shall, exercise any rights and remedies provided to the Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents or at law or equity, including
all remedies provided under the UCC.

Lender’s or such Issuing Bank’s behalf. Without limiting the foregoing, each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby authorizes
the Administrative Agent to execute and deliver, and to perform its obligations under, each of the Loan Documents to which the Administrative
Agent is a party, and to exercise all rights, powers and remedies that the Administrative Agent may have under such Loan Documents.
121
(b) As
to any matters not expressly provided for herein and in the other Loan Documents (including enforcement or collection), the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to exercise any discretion or take any action, but shall be required to act or to refrain from acting (and
shall be fully protected in so acting or refraining from acting) upon the written instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other
number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, pursuant to the terms in the Loan Documents), and, unless and until revoked
in writing, such instructions shall be binding upon each Lender and the Issuing Bank; provided, however, that the Administrative
Agent shall not be required to take any action that (i) the Administrative Agent in good faith believes exposes it to liability
unless the Administrative Agent receives an indemnification and is exculpated in a manner satisfactory to it from the Lenders and the
Issuing Bank with respect to such action or (ii) is contrary to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or applicable law, including
any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization
or relief of debtors or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of
any requirement of law relating to bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization or relief of debtors; provided, further, that
the Administrative Agent may seek clarification or direction from the Required Lenders prior to the exercise of any such instructed action
and may refrain from acting until such clarification or direction has been provided. Except as expressly set forth in the Loan Documents,
the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating
to any Borrower, any other Loan Party, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing that is communicated to or obtained by
the Person serving as Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative
Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or
in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate
indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.
(c) In
performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf
of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the
Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. The motivations of the Administrative Agent are commercial
in nature and not to invest in the general performance or operations of the Borrowers. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:
(i) the
Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the
agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender, any Issuing Bank or Secured Party or holder of any other obligation other than as expressly
set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing
(and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Loan Document
with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising
under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect
only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim
against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement
and/or the transactions contemplated hereby; and
(ii) nothing
in this Agreement or any Loan Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element
of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.
122
(d) The
Administrative Agent may perform any 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 of their respective duties and exercise their respective rights and powers through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory
provisions of this Article 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 pursuant to this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible
for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agent except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and
non-appealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agent.
(e) None
of either Lead Arranger nor the Syndication Agent shall have any obligations or duties whatsoever in such capacity under this Agreement
or any other Loan Document and shall incur no liability hereunder or thereunder in such capacity, but shall have the benefit of the indemnities
provided for hereunder.
(f) In
case of the pendency of any proceeding with respect to any Loan Party under any Federal, state or foreign bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership
or similar law now or hereafter in effect, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or any reimbursement
obligation in respect of any LC Disbursement shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective
of whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on any Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by
intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:
(i) to
file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans, LC Disbursements
and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have
the claims of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Administrative Agent (including any claim under Sections 2.12, 2.13,
2.15, 2.17 and 9.03) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and
(ii) to
collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;
and any custodian, receiver,
assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender, the
Issuing Bank and each other Secured Party to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, in the event that the Administrative
Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank or the other Secured Parties, to pay to
the Administrative Agent any amount due to it, in its capacity as the Administrative Agent, under the Loan Documents (including under
Section 9.03). Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to
or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender or Issuing Bank any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting
the Obligations or the rights of any Lender or Issuing Bank or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim
of any Lender or Issuing Bank in any such proceeding.
(g) The
provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, and, except
solely to the extent of the Borrowers’ right to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, no
Borrower nor any Subsidiary, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such
provisions. Each Secured Party, whether or not a party hereto, will be deemed, by its acceptance of the benefits of the Collateral and
of the Guarantees of the Secured Obligations provided under the Loan Documents, to have agreed to the provisions of this Article.
123
Section 8.02. Administrative
Agent’s Reliance, Indemnification, Etc.
(a) Neither
the Administrative Agent nor any of its Related Parties shall be (i) liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by such
party, the Administrative Agent or any of its Related Parties under or in connection with this Agreement or the other Loan Documents
(x) with the consent of 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 shall believe in good faith to be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in the Loan
Documents) or (y) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct (such absence to be presumed unless otherwise
determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by a final and non-appealable judgment) or (ii) responsible in any manner to any
of the Lenders for any recitals, statements, certifications, representations or warranties made by any Loan Party or any officer thereof
contained in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or in any certificate, report, statement or other document referred to or provided
for in, or received by the Administrative Agent under or in connection with, this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for the value,
validity, effectiveness, genuineness, enforceability or sufficiency of this Agreement or any other Loan Document or for any failure of
any Loan Party to perform its obligations hereunder or thereunder.
(b) The
Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until written notice thereof (stating that it is
a “notice of default”) is given to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower Representative, a Lender or the Issuing Bank,
and the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, certification,
warranty or representation made in or in connection with any Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other
document delivered thereunder or in connection therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements
or other terms or conditions set forth in any Loan Document or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the sufficiency, validity, enforceability,
effectiveness or genuineness of any Loan Document or any other agreement, instrument or document, (v) the satisfaction of any condition
set forth in Article IV or elsewhere in any Loan Document, other than to confirm receipt of items (which on their face purport
to be such items) expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent or satisfaction of any condition that expressly refers
to the matters described therein being acceptable or satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, or (vi) the creation, perfection
or priority of Liens on the Collateral.
(c) Without
limiting the foregoing, the Administrative Agent (i) may treat the payee of any promissory note as its holder until such promissory
note has been assigned in accordance with Section 9.04, (ii) may rely on the Register to the extent set forth in Section 9.04(b),
(iii) may consult with legal counsel (including counsel to the Borrowers), independent public accountants and other experts selected
by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such
counsel, accountants or experts, (iv) makes no warranty or representation to any Lender or Issuing Bank and shall not be responsible
to any Lender or Issuing Bank for any statements, certifications, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of any Loan Party
in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (v) in determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the
making of a Loan, or the issuance of a Letter of Credit, that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender or an Issuing
Bank, may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender or Issuing Bank unless the Administrative Agent shall have received
notice to the contrary from such Lender or Issuing Bank sufficiently in advance of the making of such Loan or the issuance of such Letter
of Credit and (vi) shall be entitled to rely on, and shall incur no liability under or in respect of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document by acting upon, any notice, consent, certificate or other instrument or writing (which writing may be a fax, any electronic
message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) or any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed
by it to be genuine and signed or sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper party or parties (whether or not such Person in fact
meets the requirements set forth in the Loan Documents for being the maker thereof).
124
Section 8.03. Posting
of Communications.
(a) The
Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and
the Issuing Bank by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic system chosen
by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”).
(b) Although
the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented
or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system)
and the Approved Electronic Platform is secured through a per-deal authorization method whereby each user may access the Approved Electronic
Platform only on a deal-by-deal basis, each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution
of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or
vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality
and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and each Borrower hereby approves distribution
of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
(c) THE
APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”.
THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED
ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE
COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY,
FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE
BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE
AGENT, THE LEAD ARRANGERS, THE SYNDICATION AGENT OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE RELATED PARTIES (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”)
HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING
DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING
OUT OF ANY LOAN PARTY’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED
ELECTRONIC PLATFORM.
“Communications” means,
collectively, any notice, demand, communication, information, document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant
to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated therein which is distributed by the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing
Bank by means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform.
125
(d) Each
Lender and Issuing Bank agrees that notice to it (as provided in the next sentence) specifying that Communications have been posted to
the Approved Electronic Platform shall constitute effective delivery of the Communications to such Lender for purposes of the Loan Documents.
Each Lender and Issuing Bank agrees (i) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic
communication) from time to time of such Lender’s or Issuing Bank’s (as applicable) email address to which the foregoing
notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (ii) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address.
(e) Each
of the Lenders, Issuing Bank and each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable
law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s
generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.
(f) Nothing
herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent, any Lender or Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant
to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.
Section 8.04. The
Administrative Agent Individually. With respect to its Commitment, Loans (including Swingline Loans) and Letters of Credit, the Person
serving as the Administrative Agent shall have and may exercise the same rights and powers hereunder and is subject to the same obligations
and liabilities as and to the extent set forth herein for any other Lender or Issuing Bank, as the case may be. The terms “Issuing
Bank”, “Lenders”, “Required Lenders” and any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise
indicates, include the Administrative Agent in its individual capacity as a Lender, Issuing Bank or as one of the Required Lenders,
as applicable. The Person serving as the Administrative Agent 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 banking, trust or other business
with, any Loan Party, any Subsidiary or any Affiliate of any of the foregoing as if such Person was not acting as the Administrative
Agent and without any duty to account therefor to the Lenders or the Issuing Bank.
Section 8.05. Successor
Administrative Agent.
(a) The
Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving 30 days’ prior written notice thereof to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and
the Borrower Representative, whether or not a successor Administrative Agent has been appointed. Upon any such resignation, the Required
Lenders shall have the right, to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed
by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent’s
giving of notice of resignation, then the retiring Administrative Agent may, on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a
successor Administrative Agent which shall be a bank with an office in New York, New York or an Affiliate of any such bank. In either
case, such appointment shall be subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower Representative (which approval may not be unreasonably
withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing). Upon the acceptance of any appointment
as Administrative Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, such successor Administrative Agent shall succeed to and become vested with,
all the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent. Upon the acceptance of appointment as Administrative
Agent by a successor Administrative Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under
this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Prior to any retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder as Administrative
Agent, the retiring Administrative Agent shall take such action as may be reasonably necessary to assign to the successor Administrative
Agent its rights as Administrative Agent under the Loan Documents.
126
(b) Notwithstanding
paragraph (a) of this Section, in the event no successor Administrative Agent shall have been so appointed and shall have
accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its intent to resign, the retiring Administrative
Agent may give notice of the effectiveness of its resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrowers, whereupon, on the date
of effectiveness of such resignation stated in such notice, (i) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its
duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents; provided that, solely for purposes of maintaining any security
interest granted to the Administrative Agent under any Collateral Document for the benefit of the Secured Parties, the retiring Administrative
Agent shall continue to be vested with such security interest as collateral agent for the benefit of the Secured Parties and continue
to be entitled to the rights set forth in such Collateral Document and Loan Document, and, in the case of any Collateral in the possession
of the Administrative Agent, shall continue to hold such Collateral, in each case until such time as a successor Administrative Agent
is appointed and accepts such appointment in accordance with this Section (it being understood and agreed that the retiring Administrative
Agent shall have no duty or obligation to take any further action under any Collateral Document, including any action required to maintain
the perfection of any such security interest), and (ii) the Required Lenders shall succeed to and become vested with all the rights,
powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent; provided that (A) all payments required to be made hereunder
or under any other Loan Document to the Administrative Agent for the account of any Person other than the Administrative Agent shall
be made directly to such Person and (B) all notices and other communications required or contemplated to be given or made to the
Administrative Agent shall directly be given or made to each Lender and Issuing Bank. Following the effectiveness of the Administrative
Agent’s resignation from its capacity as such, the provisions of this Article, Section 2.17(d) and Section 9.03,
as well as any exculpatory, reimbursement and indemnification provisions set forth in any other Loan Document, 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 Administrative Agent and in respect
of the matters referred to in the proviso under clause (a) above.
Section 8.06. Acknowledgements

(a) Each
Lender represents and warrants that (i) the Loan Documents set forth the terms of a commercial lending facility, (ii) in
participating as a Lender, it is engaged in making, acquiring or holding commercial loans and in providing other facilities set forth
herein as may be applicable to such Lender, in the ordinary course of business, and not for the purpose of investing in the general performance
or operations of the Borrowers, or for the purposes of purchasing, acquiring or holding any other type of financial instrument such as
a security (and each Lender agrees not to assert a claim in contravention of the foregoing, such as a claim under the federal or state
securities laws), (iii) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication
Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information as it has

Loans hereunder and (iv) it is sophisticated with respect to decisions to make, acquire and/or hold commercial loans and to provide
other facilities set forth herein, as may be applicable to such Lender, and either it, or the Person exercising discretion in making
its decision to make, acquire and/or hold such commercial loans or to provide such other facilities, is experienced in making, acquiring
or holding such commercial loans or providing such other facilities. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without
reliance upon the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent or any other Lender, or any of the Related Parties
of any of the foregoing, and based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning
of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrowers and their Affiliates) 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.
127
(b) Each
Lender, by delivering its signature page to this Agreement on the Effective Date, or delivering its signature page to an
Assignment and Assumption or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall become a Lender hereunder, shall be deemed to have acknowledged
receipt of, and consented to and approved, each Loan Document and each other document required to be delivered to, or be approved by
or satisfactory to, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders on the Effective Date or the effective date of any such Assignment and Assumption
or any other Loan Document pursuant to which it shall have become a Lender hereunder.
(c) Each
Lender hereby agrees that (i) it has requested a copy of each Report prepared by or on behalf of the Administrative Agent; (ii) the
Administrative Agent (A) makes no representation or warranty, express or implied, as to the completeness or accuracy of any Report
or any information or calculation contained therein or any inaccuracy or omission contained in or relating to a Report and (B) shall
not be liable for any information or calculation contained in any Report; (iii) the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations,
and that any Person performing any field examination, calculation or similar function will inspect only specific information regarding
the Loan Parties and will rely significantly upon the Loan Parties’ books and records and other supporting information furnished
by or on behalf of the Loan Parties, as well as on representations of the Loan Parties’ personnel and that the Administrative Agent
undertakes no obligation to update, correct or supplement the Reports; (iv) it will keep all Reports confidential and strictly
for its internal use, not share the Report with any Loan Party or any other Person except as otherwise permitted pursuant to this Agreement;
and (v) without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, (A) it
will hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Person preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may
take or conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any extension of credit that the indemnifying
Lender has made or may make to a Borrower, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase
of, a Loan or Loans; and (B) it will pay and protect, and indemnify, defend, and hold the Administrative Agent and any such other
Person preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including
reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Administrative Agent or any such other Person as the direct or indirect result of any
third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender.
(d) Each
Lender hereby agrees that (i) the Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) provide services in its sole discretion
to assist the Borrowers in determining the Borrowing Base (or any component thereof) at any time, (ii) the Administrative Agent
may cease providing such services at any time in its sole discretion, (iii) neither the Administrative Agent’s decision to
provide (or not provide) such services at any time shall, nor shall any aspect of the provision of such services, constitute gross negligence,
willful misconduct, bad faith or a material breach of the Administrative Agent’s obligations for purposes of this Agreement or
any other Loan Document, (iv) regardless of whether such services are provided, the Borrowers shall at all times be solely responsible
for (A) the timely delivery of the Borrowing Base Certificate and all supporting information as required by this Agreement and
(B) each calculation, and the accuracy of all information, contained in the Borrowing Base Certificate, and (v) to the extent
permitted by applicable law no Lender shall assert any claim against the Administrative Agent, for any Liabilities arising from the provision
(or decision not to provide) such services. The Administrative Agent shall have no responsibility or obligation to any Lender or any
other Person or entity in connection with the provision of any such services, the cessation of such services, or the decision not to
provide such services.
128
(e) (i) Each
Lender hereby agrees that (x) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in
its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment,
prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were
erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof),
such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative
Agent may, in its sole discretion, specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion
thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing
by the Administrative Agent) in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such
Lender to the date such amount is repaid 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 from time to time in effect, and (y) to the extent
permitted by applicable law, such Lender shall not assert, and hereby waives, as to the Administrative Agent, any claim, counterclaim,
defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return
of any Payments received, including without limitation any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.
A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 8.06(d) shall be conclusive, absent manifest
error.
(ii) Each
Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (x) that
is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or
any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (y) that was not preceded or accompanied
by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each
Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such
Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly,
but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter (or such later date as the Administrative Agent may, in its sole discretion,
specify in writing), return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand
was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon (except to the extent waived in writing by the Administrative Agent) in respect
of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid
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 from time to time in effect.
(iii) Each
Borrower and each other Loan Party hereby agrees that (x) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered
from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all
the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (y) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise
satisfy any Obligations owed by any Borrower or any other Loan Party.
(iv) Each
party’s obligations under this Section 8.06(d) shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent
or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction
or discharge of all Obligations under any Loan Document.
129
(f) The
Lenders acknowledge that there may be a constant flow of information (including information which may be subject to confidentiality obligations
in favor of the Loan Parties) between the Loan Parties and their Affiliates, on the one hand, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its Affiliates,
on the other hand. Without limiting the foregoing, the Loan Parties or their Affiliates may provide information, including updates to
previously provided information to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and/or its Affiliates acting in different capacities, including as Lender,
lead bank, arranger or potential securities investor, independent of such entity’s role as administrative agent hereunder. The
Lenders acknowledge that neither JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. nor its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to provide any of the foregoing
information to them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Loan Document, except for notices, reports
and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall
not have any duty or responsibility to provide, and shall not be liable for the failure to provide, any Lender with any credit or other
information concerning the Loans, the Lenders, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness
of any of the Loan Parties or any of their respective Affiliates that is communicated to, obtained by, or in the possession of, the Administrative
Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, including any information obtained by the Administrative Agent in the course of communications
among the Administrative Agent and any Loan Party, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such
information may (but shall not be required to) be shared by the Administrative Agent with one or more Lenders, or any formal or informal
committee or ad hoc group of such Lenders, including at the direction of a Loan Party, in each case, subject to the restrictions in Section 9.12.
Section 8.07. Collateral
Matters.
(a) Except
with respect to the exercise of setoff rights in accordance with Section 9.08 or with respect to a Secured Party’s
right to file a proof of claim in an insolvency proceeding, no Secured Party shall have any right individually to realize upon any of
the Collateral or to enforce any Guarantee of the Secured Obligations, it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies
under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties in accordance with the
terms thereof. In its capacity, the Administrative Agent is a “representative” of the Secured Parties within the meaning
of the term “secured party” as defined in the UCC. In the event that any Collateral is hereafter pledged by any Person as
collateral security for the Secured Obligations, the Administrative Agent is hereby authorized, and hereby granted a power of attorney,
to execute and deliver on behalf of the Secured Parties any Loan Documents necessary or appropriate to grant and perfect a Lien on such
Collateral in favor of the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Secured Parties.
(b) In
furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in respect of Banking Services the obligations under which
constitute Secured Obligations and no Swap Agreement the obligations under which constitute Secured Obligations, will create (or be deemed
to create) in favor of any Secured Party that is a party thereto any rights in connection with the management or release of any Collateral
or of the obligations of any Loan Party under any Loan Document. By accepting the benefits of the Collateral, each Secured Party that
is a party to any such arrangement in respect of Banking Services or Swap Agreement, as applicable, shall be deemed to have appointed
the Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent and collateral agent under the Loan Documents and agreed to be bound by the
Loan Documents as a Secured Party thereunder, subject to the limitations set forth in this paragraph.
130
(c) The
Secured Parties irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to subordinate any Lien on any property
granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that is permitted by
Section 6.02(b) or 6.02(e). The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have a duty to ascertain
or inquire into any representation or warranty regarding the existence, value or collectability of the Collateral, the existence, priority
or perfection of the Administrative Agent’s Lien thereon or any certificate prepared by any Loan Party in connection therewith,
nor shall the Administrative Agent be responsible or liable to the Lenders or any other Secured Party for any failure to monitor or maintain
any portion of the Collateral.
Section 8.08. Credit
Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at the direction of the Required Lenders, to
credit bid all or any portion of the Obligations (including by accepting some or all of the Collateral in satisfaction of some or all
of the Obligations pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise) and in such manner purchase (either directly or through one
or more acquisition vehicles) all or any portion of the Collateral (a) at any sale thereof conducted under the provisions of the
Bankruptcy Code, including under Sections 363, 1123 or 1129 of the Bankruptcy Code, or any similar laws in any other jurisdictions
to which a Loan Party is subject, or (b) at any other sale, foreclosure or acceptance of collateral in lieu of debt conducted by
(or with the consent or at the direction of) the Administrative Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with any
applicable law. In connection with any such credit bid and purchase, the Obligations owed to the Secured Parties shall be entitled to
be, and shall be, credit bid by the Administrative Agent at the direction of the Required Lenders on a ratable basis (with Obligations
with respect to contingent or unliquidated claims receiving contingent interests in the acquired assets on a ratable basis that shall
vest upon the liquidation of such claims in an amount proportional to the liquidated portion of the contingent claim amount used in allocating
the contingent interests) for the asset or assets so purchased (or for the equity interests or debt instruments of the acquisition vehicle
or vehicles that are issued in connection with such purchase). In connection with any such bid (i) the Administrative Agent shall
be authorized to form one or more acquisition vehicles and to assign any successful credit bid to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles,
(ii) each of the Secured Parties’ ratable interests in the Obligations which were credit bid shall be deemed without any
further action under this Agreement to be assigned to such vehicle or vehicles for the purpose of closing such sale, (iii) the
Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided
that any actions by the Administrative Agent with respect to such acquisition vehicle or vehicles, including any disposition of the assets
or equity interests thereof, shall be governed, directly or indirectly, by, and the governing documents shall provide for, control by
the vote of the Required Lenders or their permitted assignees under the terms of this Agreement or the governing documents of the applicable
acquisition vehicle or vehicles, as the case may be, irrespective of the termination of this Agreement and without giving effect to the
limitations on actions by the Required Lenders contained in Section 9.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the Administrative
Agent on behalf of such acquisition vehicle or vehicles shall be authorized to issue to each of the Secured Parties, ratably on account
of the relevant Obligations which were credit bid, interests, whether as equity, partnership interests, limited partnership interests
or membership interests, in any such acquisition vehicle and/or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle, all without the
need for any Secured Party or acquisition vehicle to take any further action, and (v) to the extent that Obligations that are assigned
to an acquisition vehicle are not used to acquire Collateral for any reason (as a result of another bid being higher or better, because
the amount of Obligations assigned to the acquisition vehicle exceeds the amount of Obligations credit bid by the acquisition vehicle
or otherwise), such Obligations shall automatically be reassigned to the Secured Parties pro rata with their original interest in such
Obligations and the equity interests and/or debt instruments issued by any acquisition vehicle on account of such Obligations shall automatically
be cancelled, without the need for any Secured Party or any acquisition vehicle to take any further action. Notwithstanding that the
ratable portion of the Obligations of each Secured Party are deemed assigned to the acquisition vehicle or vehicles as set forth in clause
(ii) above, each Secured Party shall execute such documents and provide such information regarding the Secured Party (and/or
any designee of the Secured Party which will receive interests in or debt instruments issued by such acquisition vehicle) as the Administrative
Agent may reasonably request in connection with the formation of any acquisition vehicle, the formulation or submission of any credit
bid or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by such credit bid.

(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, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit
of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is and will be true:

(iii) (A) such
Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI

participate in, administer and perform the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, (C) the entrance into,

(b) In
addition, unless sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or
such Lender has not provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in 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, the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance
of doubt, to or for the benefit of any Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the
Syndication Agent or any of their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the Collateral or the assets of such Lender (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 to hereto or thereto).
132
(c) The
Administrative Agent, the Syndication Agent and the Lead Arrangers hereby inform the Lenders that each such Person is not undertaking
to provide investment advice or to give advice in a fiduciary capacity, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, and
that such Person has a financial interest in the transactions contemplated hereby in that such Person or an Affiliate thereof (i) may
receive interest or other payments with respect to the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments, this Agreement and any other Loan
Documents, (ii) may recognize a gain if it extended the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments for an amount less than

fees, amendment fees, processing fees, term out premiums, banker’s acceptance fees, breakage or other early termination fees or
fees similar to the foregoing.
Section 8.10. Flood
Laws. JPMCB has adopted internal policies and procedures that address requirements placed on federally regulated lenders under applicable
Flood Laws. JPMCB, as administrative agent or collateral agent on a syndicated facility, will post on the applicable electronic platform
(or otherwise distribute to each Lender in the syndicate) documents that it receives in connection with the Flood Laws. However, JPMCB
reminds each Lender and Participant in the facility that, pursuant to the Flood Laws, each federally regulated Lender (whether acting
as a Lender or Participant in the facility) is responsible for assuring its own compliance with the flood insurance requirements.
Section 8.11. Borrower
Communications.
(a) The
Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Issuing Banks agree that, pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent, the
Borrowers may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Borrower Communications to the Administrative Agent through an electronic platform
chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Borrower Portal”).
As
used in this Section 8.11, “Borrower Communications” means, collectively, any Borrowing Request, Interest
Election Request, Compliance Certificate, Borrowing Base Certificate and supporting documentation, notice of prepayment, notice
requesting the issuance, amendment or extension of a Letter of Credit or other notice, demand, certification, communication, information,
document or other material provided by or on behalf of any Loan Party pursuant to any Loan Document or the transactions contemplated
therein which is distributed by any Loan Party to the Administrative Agent through the Approved Borrower Portal, in each case, to the
extent arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Administrative Agent.
(b) Although
the Approved Borrower Portal and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented
or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Effective Date, a user ID/password authorization system),
each Lender, each Issuing Bank, and each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that (i) the distribution of material through an electronic
medium is not necessarily secure, (ii) the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting administrators, representatives,
or contacts of the Borrowers added to the Approved Borrower Portal, to the extent actually added by the Borrowers, and (iii) there
may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each Lender, each Issuing Bank, and each Borrower hereby approves
distribution of Borrower Communications through the Approved Borrower Portal and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.
133
(c) THE
APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY
OR COMPLETENESS OF THE BORROWER COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR
ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL AND THE BORROWER COMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR
STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD PARTY RIGHTS
OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE BORROWER COMMUNICATIONS
OR THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE APPLICABLE PARTIES HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO ANY LOAN PARTY, ANY LENDER, ANY ISSUING
BANK OR ANY OTHER PERSON OR ENTITY FOR DAMAGES OF ANY KIND, INCLUDING DIRECT OR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL
DAMAGES, LOSSES OR EXPENSES (WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF ANY BORROWER’S TRANSMISSION OF BORROWER COMMUNICATIONS
THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED BORROWER PORTAL.
(d) Each
Lender, each Issuing Bank, and each Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law)
shall not be obligated to, store the Borrower Communications on the Approved Borrower Portal in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s
generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.
(e) Nothing
herein shall prejudice the right of the Loan Parties to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other
manner specified in such Loan Document.

(b) Notices
and other communications to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Banks hereunder may be delivered or furnished by using

hereto. Unless otherwise set forth herein, all notices and other communications given to any party hereto in accordance with the provisions
of this Agreement shall be deemed to have been given on the date of receipt.
Section 9.02. Waivers;
Amendments.
(a) No
failure or delay by the Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender in exercising any right or power hereunder or under any
other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment
or discontinuance of steps to enforce such a right or power, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other
right or power. The rights and remedies of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders hereunder and under the other
Loan Documents are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have. No waiver of any provision
of any Loan Document or consent to any departure by any Borrower therefrom shall in any event be effective unless the same shall be permitted
by paragraph (b) of this Section, and then such waiver or consent shall be effective only in the specific instance
and for the purpose for which given. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the making of a Loan or issuance of a Letter of
Credit shall not be construed as a waiver of any Default, regardless of whether the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank
may have had notice or knowledge of such Default at the time.
(b) Except
as provided in the first sentence of Section 2.09(f) (with respect to any commitment increase) and subject to Section 2.14(c),
(d) and (f) and except as provided in Section 6.03(c) with respect to changes in fiscal
year, neither this Agreement nor any provision hereof may be waived, amended or modified except pursuant to an agreement or agreements
in writing entered into by the Borrowers and the Required Lenders or by the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent with the consent of
the Required Lenders; provided that no such agreement shall:
(i) increase
the Commitment of any Lender without the written consent of such Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender); provided
that, a waiver of any condition precedent set forth in Section 4.02 or the waiver of any Default or mandatory prepayment
shall not constitute an increase of any Commitment of any Lender;
(ii) reduce
or forgive the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement or reduce the rate of interest thereon, or reduce or forgive any interest
or fees payable hereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender) directly
affected thereby; provided that (x) any amendment or modification of the financial covenants in this Agreement (or defined
terms used in the financial covenants in this Agreement) shall not constitute a reduction in the rate of interest or fees for purposes
of this clause (ii) and (y) only the consent of the Required Lenders shall be necessary to reduce or waive any obligation
of the Borrowers to pay interest or any other amount at the applicable default rate set forth in Section 2.13(e) or
to amend Section 2.13(e);
136
(iii) postpone
the scheduled date of payment of the principal amount of any Loan or LC Disbursement, or any interest thereon, or any fees payable hereunder,
or reduce the amount of, waive or excuse any such payment, or postpone the scheduled date of expiration of any Commitment, without the
written consent of each Lender (including any such Lender that is a Defaulting Lender) directly affected thereby (other than with respect
to the matters set forth in clauses (ii)(x) and (ii)(y) above);
(iv) change
Section 2.09(d) or Section 2.18(b) or (d) in a manner that would alter the pro rata
sharing of payments or the order in which such payments are to be applied required thereby, without the written consent of each Lender
(other than any Defaulting Lender);
(v) change
the definition of Borrowing Base (or any defined terms used therein) in a manner that makes more credit available, increase the advance
rates set forth in the definition of Borrowing Base or add new categories of eligible assets, in each case, without the written consent
of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender);
(vi) change
any of the provisions of this Section or the definition of “Required Lenders” or any other provision of any
Loan Document specifying the number or percentage of Lenders (or Lenders of any Class) required to waive, amend or modify any rights
thereunder or make any determination or grant any consent thereunder, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting
Lender);
(vii) release
all or substantially all of the value of the Loan Guaranty (except as otherwise permitted herein or in the other Loan Documents, including
with respect to a sale, disposition or dissolution of a Loan Guarantor permitted herein), without the written consent of each Lender
(other than any Defaulting Lender);
(viii) except
as provided in clause (d) of this Section or in any Collateral Document (as in effect on the Effective Date),
release all or substantially all of the Collateral, without the written consent of each Lender (other than any Defaulting Lender); or
(ix) subordinate
(x) the Liens securing any of the Obligations on all or substantially all of the Collateral (“Existing Liens”)
to the Liens securing any other Indebtedness or other obligations or (y) any Obligations in contractual right of payment to any
other Indebtedness or other obligations (any such other Indebtedness or other obligations, to which such Liens securing any of the Obligations
or such Obligations, as applicable, are subordinated, including but not limited to any “debtor in possession” financing (or
similar financing under applicable law and including use of cash collateral with respect to such financing and including any portion
of the Obligations that may be “rolled up” into such financing) provided to any Borrower or Loan Party in an insolvency proceeding
by any Lender or any group of Lenders, “Senior Indebtedness”), in either the case of subclause (x) or (y), unless
each adversely affected Lender has been offered a bona fide opportunity to fund or otherwise provide its pro rata share (based on the
amount of Obligations that are adversely affected thereby held by each Lender) of the Senior Indebtedness on the same terms (other than
bona fide backstop fees and reimbursement of counsel fees and other expenses in connection with the negotiation of the terms of such
transaction; such fees and expenses, “Ancillary Fees”) as offered to all other providers (or their Affiliates) of
the Senior Indebtedness and to the extent such adversely affected Lender decides to participate in the Senior Indebtedness, receive its
pro rata share of the fees and any other similar benefit (other than Ancillary Fees) of the Senior Indebtedness afforded to the providers
of the Senior Indebtedness (or any of their Affiliates) in connection with providing the Senior Indebtedness pursuant to a written offer
made to each such adversely affected Lender describing the material terms of the arrangements pursuant to which the Senior Indebtedness
is to be provided, which offer shall remain open to each adversely affected Lender for a period of not less than five Business Days;
137
provided
further that (A) no such agreement shall amend, modify or otherwise affect the rights or duties of the Administrative
Agent, any Issuing Bank or the Swingline Lender hereunder without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, such Issuing
Bank or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be (it being understood that any change to Section 2.20 shall require the
consent of the Administrative Agent, each Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender) and (B) no such agreement shall amend or modify
the provisions of Section 2.06 or any letter of credit application and any bilateral agreement between the Borrower Representative
and the Issuing Bank regarding the Issuing Bank’s Issuing Bank Sublimit or the respective rights and obligations between any Borrower
and the Issuing Bank in connection with the issuance of Letters of Credit without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent
and the Issuing Bank, respectively. The Administrative Agent may also amend the Commitment Schedule to reflect assignments entered
into pursuant to Section 9.04.
(c) Notwithstanding
the foregoing, this Agreement and any other Loan Document may be amended (or amended and restated) with the written consent of the Required
Lenders, the Administrative Agent and each Borrower (x) to add one or more credit facilities to this Agreement and to permit extensions
of credit from time to time outstanding thereunder and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof to share ratably in the benefits
of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents with the Revolving Loans and the accrued interest and fees in respect thereof and (y) to
include appropriately the Lenders holding such credit facilities in any determination of the Required Lenders and Lenders.
(d) The
Lenders and the Issuing Bank hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its sole discretion, to release
any Liens granted to the Administrative Agent by the Loan Parties on any Collateral (i) upon satisfaction of the Final Release
Conditions, (ii) constituting property being sold or disposed of if the Loan Party disposing of such property certifies to the
Administrative Agent that the sale or disposition is made in compliance with the terms of this Agreement (and the Administrative Agent
may rely conclusively on any such certificate, without further inquiry), and to the extent that the property being sold or disposed of
constitutes 100% of the Equity Interests of a Subsidiary, the Administrative Agent is authorized to release any Loan Guaranty, (iii) constituting
property leased to a Loan Party under a lease which has expired or been terminated in a transaction permitted under this Agreement, (iv) constituting
Excluded Assets or (v) as required to effect any sale or other disposition of such Collateral in connection with any exercise of
remedies of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders pursuant to Article VII. Except as provided in the preceding sentence,
the Administrative Agent will not release any Liens on Collateral without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders; provided
that, the Administrative Agent may in its discretion, release its Liens on Collateral valued in the aggregate not in excess of $15,000,000
during any calendar year without the prior written authorization of the Required Lenders(it being agreed that the Administrative Agent
may rely conclusively on one or more certificates of the Borrowers as to the value of any Collateral to be so released, without further
inquiry). Any execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent of documents in connection with any such release shall be without recourse
to or warranty by the Administrative Agent. In addition, each of the Lenders, on behalf of itself and any of its Affiliates that are
Secured Parties, irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent, at its option and in its discretion, (i) to subordinate any Lien
on any assets granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document to the holder of any Lien on such property that
is permitted by Section 6.02(e) or (ii) in the event that the Company shall have advised the Administrative
Agent that, notwithstanding the use by the Company of commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the consent of such holder (but without
the requirement to pay any sums to obtain such consent) to permit the Administrative Agent to retain its liens (on a subordinated basis
as contemplated by clause (i) above), the holder of such other Indebtedness requires, as a condition to the extension of
such credit, that the Liens on such assets granted to or held by the Administrative Agent under any Loan Document be released, to release
the Administrative Agent’s Liens on such assets. Any such release shall not in any manner discharge, affect, or impair the
Obligations or any Liens (other than those expressly being released) upon (or obligations of the Loan Parties in respect of) all interests
retained by the Loan Parties, including the proceeds of any sale, all of which shall continue to constitute part of the Collateral. Any
execution and delivery by the Administrative Agent of documents in connection with any such release shall be without recourse to or warranty
by the Administrative Agent.
138
(e) If,
in connection with any proposed amendment, waiver or consent requiring the consent of “each Lender” or “each Lender
directly affected thereby,” the consent of the Required Lenders is obtained, but the consent of other necessary Lenders is not
obtained (any such Lender whose consent is necessary but not obtained being referred to herein as a “Non-Consenting Lender”),
then the Company may elect to replace a Non-Consenting Lender as a Lender party to this Agreement, provided that, concurrently
with such replacement, (i) another bank or other entity which is reasonably satisfactory to the Company and the Administrative
Agent shall agree, as of such date, to purchase for cash the Loans and other Obligations due to the Non-Consenting Lender pursuant to
an Assignment and Assumption and to become a Lender for all purposes under this Agreement and to assume all obligations of the Non-Consenting
Lender to be terminated as of such date and to comply with the requirements of clause (b) of Section 9.04,
and (ii) such Non-Consenting Lender shall have received in same day funds on the day of such replacement (1) all interest,
fees and other amounts then accrued but unpaid to such Non-Consenting Lender by such Borrower hereunder to and including the date of
termination, including without limitation payments due to such Non-Consenting Lender under Sections 2.15 and 2.17,
and (2) an amount, if any, equal to the payment which would have been due to such Lender on the day of such replacement under Section 2.16
had the Loans of such Non-Consenting Lender been prepaid on such date rather than sold to the replacement Lender. Each party hereto agrees
that an assignment required pursuant to this paragraph may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower
Representative, the Administrative Agent and the assignee (or, to the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and
Assumption by reference pursuant to an Approved Electronic Platform as to which the Administrative Agent and such parties are participants),
and 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 that any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.
(f) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein (x) the Administrative Agent may, with the consent of the Borrowers only, amend, modify or supplement
this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (i) to correct, amend, resolve or cure any ambiguity, omission, mistake, defect
or inconsistency or correct any typographical error or other manifest error in any Loan Document, (ii) to comply with local law
or advice of local counsel in any jurisdiction the laws of which govern any Collateral Document or that are relevant to the creation,
perfection, protection and/or priority of any Lien in favor of the Administrative Agent, (iii) to effect the granting, perfection,
protection, expansion or enhancement of any security interest in any Collateral or additional property to become Collateral for the benefit
of the Secured Parties, (iv) to make administrative or operational changes not adverse to any Lender or (v) to add a guarantor
or collateral or otherwise enhance the rights and benefits of the Lenders and (y) any fee letter may be amended solely with the
written consent of the parties thereto.
139
Section 9.03. Expenses;
Limitation of Liability; Indemnity; Damage Waiver.
(a) Expenses.
The Loan Parties shall, jointly and severally, pay (i) all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent
and the Lead Arrangers and their respective Affiliates (including the reasonable and documented fees, disbursements and other charges
of one primary counsel and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction for the Administrative Agent and the Lead Arrangers and
their respective Affiliates, in each case, for all such parties taken together) in connection with the syndication and distribution (including,

and one local counsel in each applicable jurisdiction, in each case for the Indemnitees taken as a whole and (y) one additional

respective obligations thereunder or the consummation of the Transactions or any other transactions contemplated hereby, (ii) any

investigation, arbitration or proceeding is brought by the Company or any other Loan Party or its or their respective equity holders,
Affiliates, creditors or any other third Person and whether based on contract, tort or any other theory, and regardless of whether any
Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided that such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such
losses, claims, damages, penalties, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and
nonappealable judgment to have resulted from (x) the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee or (y) the
material breach in bad faith by such Indemnitee of its express obligations under this Agreement pursuant to a claim initiated by the
Company. This Section 9.03(b) shall not apply with respect to Taxes other than any Taxes that represent losses, claims

Party and without limiting the obligation of any Loan Party to do so), ratably according to their respective Applicable Percentage in
effect on the date on which indemnification is sought under this Section (or, if indemnification is sought after the date upon
which the Commitments shall have terminated and the Loans shall have been paid in full, ratably in accordance with such Applicable Percentage

time (whether before or after the payment of the Loans) be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Agent Indemnitee in any way

to herein or therein or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby or any action taken or omitted by such Agent Indemnitee under
or in connection with any of the foregoing; 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 such Agent Indemnitee in its capacity as such; provided,
further, that no Lender shall be liable for the payment of any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties,
actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements that are found by a final and nonappealable decision of a court of competent
jurisdiction to have resulted from such Agent Indemnitee’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The agreements in this Section until
satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions.
141
(d) Limitation
of Liability. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Loan Party shall assert, and each Loan Party hereby waives, any claim
against the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arrangers, the Syndication Agent and any Lender, and any Related Party of any of the foregoing
Persons (each such Person being called a “Lender-Related Person”) (i) for any damages arising from the use by
others of information or other materials obtained through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems (including
the Internet, any Approved Electronic Platform and any Approved Borrower Portal) other than actual or direct damages that are determined
by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct
of such Lender-Related Person or any of its Related Parties. To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Lender-Related Person shall
assert against any Loan Party or its Related Parties and no Loan Party shall assert against any Lender-Related Person, and each Lender-Related
Person and Loan Party hereby waives, any claim, or (ii) on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive
damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan
Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the Transactions, any Loan or Letter of Credit or the use of
the proceeds thereof; provided that, nothing contained in this sentence shall limit the Company’s indemnity obligations
to the extent set forth in Section 9.03(b). Further, each Borrower and each Loan Party agrees that (i) the Administrative
Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) provide services in its sole discretion to assist the Borrowers in determining the Borrowing
Base (or any component thereof) at any time, (ii) the Administrative Agent may cease providing such services at any time in its
sole discretion, (iii) neither the Administrative Agent’s decision to provide (or not provide) such services at any time
shall, nor shall any aspect of the provision of such services, constitute gross negligence, willful misconduct, bad faith or a material
breach of the Administrative Agent’s obligations for purposes of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and (iv) regardless
of whether such services are provided, the Borrowers shall at all times be solely responsible for (A) the timely delivery of the
Borrowing Base Certificate and all supporting information as required by this Agreement and (B) each calculation, and the accuracy

Section 9.04. Successors
and Assigns.
(a) The
provisions of this Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and
assigns permitted hereby (including any Affiliate of the relevant Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), except that (i) no
Borrower may assign or otherwise transfer any of its rights or obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of each Lender
(and any attempted assignment or transfer by any Borrower without such consent shall be null and void) and (ii) no Lender may assign
or otherwise transfer its rights or obligations hereunder except in accordance with this Section. Nothing in this Agreement, expressed
or implied, shall be construed to confer upon any Person (other than the parties hereto, their respective successors and assigns permitted
hereby (including any Affiliate of the relevant Issuing Bank that issues any Letter of Credit), Participants (to the extent provided
in paragraph (c) of this Section) and, to the extent expressly contemplated hereby, the Related Parties of each of

(b) (i) Subject
to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b)(ii) below, any Lender may assign to one or more Persons (other than an
Ineligible Institution) all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitments
and the Loans at the time owing to it) with the prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) of:
142
(A) the
Borrower Representative; provided that, (i) the Borrower Representative shall be deemed to have consented to any assignment
unless it shall object thereto by written notice to the Administrative Agent within five (5) Business Days after having received
notice thereof and (ii) no consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required for an assignment to a Lender, an Affiliate
of a Lender, an Approved Fund or, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, any other assignee;
(B) the
Administrative Agent;
(C) each
Issuing Bank; provided that no consent of an Issuing Bank shall be required if (x) an Event of Default occurs with respect
to any Borrower under clause (h) or clause (i) of Article VII and (y) such Issuing Bank has no outstanding Letters
of Credit at that time; and
(D) the
Swingline Lender; provided that no consent of a Swingline Lender shall be required if (x) an Event of Default occurs with
respect to any Borrower under clause (h) or clause (i) of Article VII and (y) the Swingline Lender has no outstanding

of the assigning Lender’s Commitment or Loans of any Class, the amount of the Commitment or Loans of the assigning Lender subject
to each such assignment (determined as of the date the Assignment and Assumption with respect to such assignment is delivered to the
Administrative Agent) shall not be less than $5,000,000 unless each of the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent otherwise
consent, provided that no such consent of the Borrower Representative shall be required if an Event of Default has occurred and
is continuing;
(B) 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;
(C) the
parties to each assignment shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (x) an Assignment and Assumption or (y) to
the extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which the Administrative
Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, together with a processing and recordation fee of $3,500 (unless
waived by the Administrative Agent), such fee to be paid by either the assigning Lender or the assignee Lender or shared between such
Lenders; provided that (1) only one such processing and recordation fee shall be payable in the event of simultaneous assignments
and delegations from any Lender or its Approved Funds to one or more other Approved Funds of such Lender and (2) with respect to
any assignment and delegation pursuant to Section 2.19(b) or 9.02(e), the parties hereto agree that such assignment
and delegation may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Company, the Administrative Agent and the assignee
and that the Lender required to make such assignment and delegation need not be a party thereto; and
143
(D) the
assignee, if it shall not be a Lender, shall deliver to the Administrative Agent an Administrative Questionnaire in which the assignee
designates one or more credit contacts to whom all syndicate-level information (which may contain MNPI about the Company and its affiliates
and their Related Parties or their respective securities) will be made available and who may receive such information in accordance with
the assignee’s compliance procedures and applicable laws, including Federal and state securities laws.
For the purposes of this
Section 9.04(b), the terms “Approved Fund” and “Ineligible Institution” have the following
meanings:
“Approved Fund”
means any Person (other than a natural person) that is engaged in making, purchasing, holding or investing in bank loans and similar
extensions of credit in the ordinary course of its business and that is administered or managed by (a) a Lender, (b) an Affiliate
of a Lender or (c) an entity or an Affiliate of an entity that administers or manages a Lender.
“Ineligible Institution”
means (a) a natural person, (b) a Defaulting Lender or its Lender Parent, (c) the Borrowers, any of their Subsidiaries
or any of their Affiliates, (d) a company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a
natural person or relative(s) thereof or (e) a Disqualified Lender.
(iii) Subject
to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to paragraph (b)(iv) of this Section, from and after the effective date
specified in each Assignment and Assumption the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned
by such Assignment and Assumption, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder
shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement
(and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 2.15, 2.16,
2.17 and 9.03). Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply
with this Section 9.04 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such
rights and obligations in accordance with paragraph (c) of this Section.
(iv) The
Administrative Agent, acting for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of each Borrower, shall maintain at one of its offices in the
United States a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses
of the Lenders, and the Commitment of, and principal amount (and stated interest) of the Loans and LC Disbursements owing to, each Lender
pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive,
and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks 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 inspection by the Company, any Issuing Bank and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time
to time upon reasonable prior notice.
(v) Upon
its receipt of (x) a duly completed Assignment and Assumption executed by an assigning Lender and an assignee or (y) to the
extent applicable, an agreement incorporating an Assignment and Assumption by reference pursuant to a Platform as to which the Administrative
Agent and the parties to the Assignment and Assumption are participants, the assignee’s completed Administrative Questionnaire
(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 Assumption 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 2.05(c),
2.06(d) or (e), 2.07(b), 2.18(d) or 9.03(c), the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation
to accept such Assignment and Assumption 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.
144
(c) Any
Lender may, without the consent of, or notice to, any Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks or the Swingline Lender,
sell participations to one or more banks or other entities (a “Participant”), other than an Ineligible Institution,
in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Commitment
and the Loans owing to it); provided that (A) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged,
(B) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (C) the
Borrowers, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender
in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement 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 9.02(b) that
affects such Participant. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at any Borrower’s request and expense, to use reasonable
efforts to cooperate with such Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 2.19 with respect to any Participant. Each
Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 2.15, 2.16 and 2.17 (subject
to the requirements and limitations therein, including the requirements under Section 2.17(f) and (g) (it
being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.17(f) shall be delivered to the participating Lender
and the information and documentation required under 2.17(g) will be delivered to the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent))
to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of
this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 2.18 and
2.19 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section; and (B) shall not be entitled to
receive any greater payment under Sections 2.15 or 2.17, with respect to any participation, than its participating
Lender would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment results from a Change
in Law that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also
shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 9.08 as though it were a Lender, provided such Participant agrees to be subject
to Section 2.18(c) as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this
purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrowers, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and
the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents
(the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion
of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest
in any Commitments, Loans, Letters of Credit or its other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that
such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, Letter of Credit or other obligation is in registered form under
Section 5f.103-1(c) or Proposed Section 1.163-5(b) of the United States Treasury Regulations (or, in each case,
any amended or successor version). The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender
shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this
Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative
Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.
145
(d) 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, and this Section shall
not apply to any such pledge or assignment of a security interest; provided that no such pledge or assignment of a security interest
shall release a Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.
(e) Disqualified
Lenders.
(i) No
assignment or participation shall be made to any Person that was a Disqualified Lender as of the date (the “Trade Date”)
on which the assigning Lender entered into a binding agreement to sell and assign or grant a participation in all or a portion of its
rights and obligations under this Agreement to such Person (unless the Company has consented to such assignment or participation in writing
in its sole and absolute discretion, in which case such Person will not be considered a Disqualified Lender for the purpose of such assignment
or participation). For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any assignee or Participant that becomes a Disqualified Lender after the
applicable Trade Date (including as a result of the delivery of a notice pursuant to, and/or the expiration of the notice period referred
to in, the definition of “Disqualified Lender”), (x) such assignee or Participant shall not retroactively be
disqualified from being a Lender or Participant and (y) the execution by the Company of an Assignment and Assumption with respect
to such assignee will not by itself result in such assignee no longer being considered a Disqualified Lender. Any assignment or participation
in violation of this clause (e)(i) shall not be void, but the other provisions of this clause (e) shall apply.
(ii) If
any assignment or participation is made to any Disqualified Lender without the Company’s prior written consent in violation of
clause (i) above, or if any Person becomes a Disqualified Lender after the applicable Trade Date, the Company may, at its
sole expense and effort, upon notice to the applicable Disqualified Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Disqualified Lender
to assign, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in this Section 9.04), all of
its interest, rights and obligations under this Agreement to one or more Persons (other than an Ineligible Institution) at the lesser
of (x) the principal amount thereof and (y) the amount that such Disqualified Lender paid to acquire such interests, rights
and obligations in each case plus accrued interest, accrued fees and all other amounts (other than principal amounts) payable
to it hereunder.
(iii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Disqualified Lenders to whom an assignment or participation is made in violation
of clause (i) above (A) will not have the right to (x) receive information, reports or other materials provided
to Lenders by the Company, the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, (y) attend or participate in meetings attended by the
Lenders (or any of them) and the Administrative Agent, or (z) access any electronic site established for the Lenders or confidential
communications from counsel to or financial advisors of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders and (B)(x) for purposes of any
consent to any amendment, waiver or modification of, or any action under, and for the purpose of any direction to the Administrative
Agent or any Lender to undertake any action (or refrain from taking any action) under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, each
Disqualified Lender will be deemed to have consented in the same proportion as the Lenders that are not Disqualified Lenders consented
to such matter, and (y) for purposes of voting on any plan of reorganization, each Disqualified Lender party hereto hereby agrees
(1) not to vote on such plan of reorganization, (2) if such Disqualified Lender does vote on such plan of reorganization
notwithstanding the restriction in the foregoing clause (1), such vote will be deemed not to be in good faith and shall be “designated”
pursuant to Section 1126(e) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable laws), and such vote
shall not be counted in determining whether the applicable class has accepted or rejected such plan of reorganization in accordance with
Section 1126(c) of the Bankruptcy Code (or any similar provision in any other applicable laws) and (3) not to contest
any request by any party for a determination by the Bankruptcy Court (or other applicable court of competent jurisdiction) effectuating
the foregoing clause (2).
146
(iv) The
Administrative Agent shall have the right, and the Company hereby expressly authorizes the Administrative Agent, to (A) post the
list of Disqualified Lenders provided by the Company and any updates thereto from time to time (collectively, the “DQ List”)
on an Approved Electronic Platform, including that portion of such Approved Electronic Platform that is designated for “public
side” Lenders and/or (B) provide the DQ List to each Lender or potential Lender requesting the same.
(v) The
Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be responsible or have any liability for, or have any duty to ascertain, inquire into,
monitor or enforce, compliance with the provisions hereof relating to Disqualified Lenders. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing,
neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall (x) be
obligated to ascertain, monitor or inquire as to whether any other Lender or Participant or prospective Lender or Participant is a Disqualified
Lender or (y) have any
liability with respect to or arising out of any assignment or participation of Loans, or disclosure of confidential information, by any
other Person to any Disqualified
Lender.
Section 9.05. Survival.
All covenants, agreements, representations and warranties made by the Loan Parties in the Loan Documents and in the certificates or other
instruments delivered in connection with or pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be considered to have been relied
upon by the other parties hereto and shall survive the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents and the making of any Loans and issuance
of any Letters of Credit, regardless of any investigation made by any such other party or on its behalf and notwithstanding that the
Administrative Agent, any Issuing Bank or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default or incorrect representation or warranty
at the time any credit is extended hereunder, and shall continue in full force and effect until the Final Release Conditions have been
satisfied. The provisions of Sections 2.15, 2.16, 2.17 and 9.03 and Article VIII shall
survive and remain in full force and effect regardless of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of
the Loans, the expiration or termination of the Letters of Credit and the Commitments or the termination of this Agreement or any other
Loan Document or any provision hereof or thereof.
Section 9.06. Counterparts;
Integration; Effectiveness; Electronic Execution.
(a) 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, the other Loan Documents and any
separate letter agreements with respect to (i) fees payable to the Administrative Agent and (ii) increases or reductions
of the Issuing Bank Sublimit of the Issuing Bank constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof
and supersede 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 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.
147
(b) Delivery
of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Loan Document and/or (z) any
document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to
Section 9.01(a)), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Loan Document
and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature
transmitted by facsimile, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall
be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Loan Document or such Ancillary Document, as
applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like
import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic
Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by facsimile, emailed pdf. or any other
electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity
or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the
case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format
without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to
the extent the Administrative Agent has agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall
be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of any Borrower or any other Loan Party without further
verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic Signature and (ii) upon
the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Borrower and each Loan Party hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including
without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among
the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, the Borrowers and the Loan Parties, Electronic Signatures transmitted by facsimile, emailed pdf.
or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this
Agreement, any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any
paper original, (B) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement,
any other Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed
created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records
shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record),
(C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other
Loan Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Loan Document
and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim
against any Lender-Related Person for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s
reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by facsimile, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces
an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of any Borrower and/or any
Loan Party to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

Any provision of any Loan Document 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 thereof; and the invalidity of a particular provision in a particular jurisdiction shall not invalidate such
provision in any other jurisdiction.
148
Section 9.08. Right
of Setoff. If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, each Lender, the Issuing Bank and each of their respective
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) at any time held, and other obligations at any time owing, by
such Lender, the Issuing Bank or any such Affiliate, to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all of the
Secured Obligations held by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates, irrespective of whether or not such Lender,
the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates shall have made any demand under the Loan Documents and although such obligations may
be contingent or unmatured or are owed to a branch office or Affiliate of such Lender or the Issuing Bank different from the branch office
or Affiliate holding such deposit or obligated on such indebtedness; provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall
exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further
application in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.20 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting
Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, and the Lenders,
and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the
Secured Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. The applicable Lender, the Issuing
Bank or such Affiliate shall notify the Borrower Representative and the Administrative Agent of such setoff or application, provided
that any failure to give or any delay in giving such notice shall not affect the validity of any such setoff or application under this
Section. The rights of each Lender, the Issuing Bank and their respective Affiliates under this Section are in addition to other
rights and remedies (including other rights of setoff) that such Lender, the Issuing Bank or their respective Affiliates may have.

relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any Loan Party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction, (ii) waive
any statutory, regulatory, common law, or other rule, doctrine, legal restriction, provision or the like providing for the treatment

Section 9.12. Confidentiality.
Each of the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks and the Lenders agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information (as defined
below), except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates’ and its and their respective directors, officers,

(1) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations under
this Agreement (it being understood that the DQ List may be disclosed to any assignee or Participant, or prospective assignee or Participant,
in reliance on this clause (f)) or (2) any actual or prospective counterparty (or its advisors) to any swap, derivative
or insurance transaction relating to any Borrower and its obligations, (g) on a confidential basis to (1) any rating agency
in connection with rating the Company or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided for herein or (2) the CUSIP Service
Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers with respect to the credit facilities provided
for herein, (h) with the consent of the Company or (i) to the extent such Information (1) becomes publicly available
other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (2) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Banks
or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Company. For the purposes of this Section, “Information”
means all information received from the Company relating to the Company or its business, whether or not identified at the time of delivery

to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of
such Information as such Person would accord to its own confidential information.
150
EACH LENDER ACKNOWLEDGES
THAT INFORMATION AS DEFINED IN THE IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING PARAGRAPH FURNISHED TO IT PURSUANT TO THIS AGREEMENT MAY INCLUDE MNPI
CONCERNING THE COMPANY AND ITS RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES, AND CONFIRMS THAT IT HAS DEVELOPED COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES
REGARDING THE USE OF MNPI AND THAT IT WILL HANDLE SUCH MNPI IN ACCORDANCE WITH THOSE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING FEDERAL
AND STATE SECURITIES LAWS.
ALL INFORMATION, INCLUDING
REQUESTS FOR WAIVERS AND AMENDMENTS, FURNISHED BY THE COMPANY OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT PURSUANT TO, OR IN THE COURSE OF ADMINISTERING,
THIS AGREEMENT WILL BE SYNDICATE-LEVEL INFORMATION, WHICH MAY CONTAIN MNPI ABOUT THE COMPANY, THE OTHER LOAN PARTIES AND THEIR
RELATED PARTIES OR THEIR RESPECTIVE SECURITIES. ACCORDINGLY, EACH LENDER REPRESENTS TO THE COMPANY AND THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT
THAT IT HAS IDENTIFIED IN ITS ADMINISTRATIVE QUESTIONNAIRE A CREDIT CONTACT WHO MAY RECEIVE INFORMATION THAT MAY CONTAIN
MNPI IN ACCORDANCE WITH ITS COMPLIANCE PROCEDURES AND APPLICABLE LAW.
For the avoidance of doubt,
nothing in this Section 9.12 shall prohibit any Person from voluntarily disclosing or providing any Information within the scope
of this confidentiality provision to any governmental, regulatory or self-regulatory organization (any such entity, a “Regulatory
Authority”) to the extent that any such prohibition on disclosure set forth in this Section 9.12 shall be prohibited
by the laws or regulations applicable to such Regulatory Authority.
Section 9.13. USA
PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the Patriot Act hereby notifies each Loan Party that pursuant to
the requirements of the Patriot Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies such Loan Party, which information
includes the name and address of such Loan Party and other information that will allow such Lender to identify such Loan Party in accordance
with the Patriot Act.
151
Section 9.14. Several
Obligations; Nonreliance; Violation of Law. The respective obligations of the Lenders hereunder are several and not joint and the
failure of any Lender to make any Loan or perform any of its obligations hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender from any of its
obligations hereunder. Each Lender hereby represents that it is not relying on or looking to any margin stock (as defined in Regulation
U of the Board) for the repayment of the Borrowings provided for herein. Anything contained in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding,
neither the Issuing Bank nor any Lender shall be obligated to extend credit to the Borrowers in violation of any Requirement of Law.
Section 9.15. Disclosure.
Each Loan Party, each Lender and the Issuing Bank hereby acknowledges and agrees that the Administrative Agent and/or its Affiliates
from time to time may hold investments in, make other loans to or have other relationships with any of the Loan Parties and their respective
Affiliates.
Section 9.16. Appointment
for Perfection. Each Lender hereby appoints each other Lender as its agent for the purpose of perfecting Liens, for the benefit of
the Administrative Agent and the Secured Parties, in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC or any other applicable
law can be perfected only by possession or control. Should any Lender (other than the Administrative Agent) obtain possession or control
of any such Collateral, such Lender shall notify the Administrative Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Administrative Agent’s
request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Administrative Agent or otherwise deal with such Collateral in accordance with
the Administrative Agent’s instructions.
Section 9.17. Interest
Rate Limitation. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if at any time the interest rate applicable to any Loan, together
with all fees, charges and other amounts which are treated as interest on such Loan under applicable law (collectively the “Charges”),
shall exceed the maximum lawful rate (the “Maximum Rate”) which may be contracted for, charged, taken, received or
reserved by the Lender holding such Loan in accordance with applicable law, the rate of interest payable in respect of such Loan hereunder,
together with all Charges payable in respect thereof, shall be limited to the Maximum Rate and, to the extent lawful, the interest and
Charges that would have been payable in respect of such Loan but were not payable as a result of the operation of this Section shall
be cumulated and the interest and Charges payable to such Lender in respect of other Loans or periods shall be increased (but not above
the Maximum Rate therefor) until such cumulated amount, together with interest thereon at the NYFRB Rate to the date of repayment, shall
have been received by such Lender.
Section 9.18. Release
of Loan Guarantors.
(a) A
Loan Guarantor shall automatically be released from its obligations under the Loan Guaranty upon the consummation of any transaction
permitted by this Agreement as a result of which such Loan Guarantor ceases to be a Subsidiary; provided that, if so required
by this Agreement, the Required Lenders shall have consented to such transaction and the terms of such consent shall not have provided
otherwise. In connection with any termination or release pursuant to this Section, the Administrative Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably
authorized by each Lender to) execute and deliver to any Loan Party, at such Loan Party’s expense, all documents that such Loan
Party shall reasonably request to evidence such termination or release. Any execution and delivery of documents pursuant to this Section shall
be without recourse to or warranty by the Administrative Agent.
152
(b) Further,
the Administrative Agent may (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by each Lender to), upon the request of the Company, release any Loan
Guarantor from its obligations under the Loan Guaranty if (i) such Loan Guarantor is no longer a Material Subsidiary or is otherwise
not required pursuant to the terms of this Agreement to provide a Loan Guaranty or (ii) such release is approved, authorized or
ratified by the requisite Lenders pursuant to Section 9.02.
(c) At
such time as (i) the principal and interest on the Loans, the fees, expenses and other amounts payable under the Loan Documents
and the other Secured Obligations (other than Banking Services Obligations, Swap Agreement Obligations and Unliquidated Obligations,
in each case, not then due and payable) shall have been paid in full in cash, (ii) the Commitments shall have been terminated,
and (iii) no Letters of Credit shall be outstanding (or any outstanding Letters of Credit shall have been cash collateralized or
backstopped pursuant to arrangements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent and the applicable Issuing Bank) (the conditions
set forth in the preceding clauses (i), (ii) and (iii), collectively, the “Final Release Conditions”),
the Loan Guaranty and all obligations (other than those expressly stated to survive such termination) of each Loan Guarantor thereunder
shall automatically terminate, all without delivery of any instrument or performance of any act by any Person.
Section 9.19. Intercreditor
Agreements. Without limiting the authority granted to the Administrative Agent in Article VIII hereof, each Lender (and
each Person that becomes a Lender hereunder pursuant to Section 9.04) hereby authorizes and directs the Administrative Agent
to enter into any Intercreditor Agreement on behalf of such Lender and agrees that the Administrative Agent may take such actions on
its behalf as is contemplated by the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement. In the event of any conflict between the terms of any Intercreditor
Agreement and this Agreement, the terms of such Intercreditor Agreement shall govern and control.
Section 9.20. Marketing
Consent. The Borrowers hereby authorize JPMCB and its affiliates (collectively, the “JPMCB Parties”), at their
respective sole expense, but without any prior approval by any Borrower, to include the Borrowers’ names and logos in advertising
slicks posted on their internet sites, in pitchbooks or sent in mailings to prospective customers and to give such other publicity to
this Agreement as each may from time to time determine in its sole discretion. Notwithstanding the foregoing, JPMCB Parties shall not
publish the Borrowers’ names in a newspaper or magazine without obtaining the Borrowers’ prior written approval. The foregoing
authorization shall remain in effect unless and until the Borrower Representative notifies JPMCB in writing that such authorization is
revoked.
Section 9.21. Acknowledgement
and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any
other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected
Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document 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:
(a) the
application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder
which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and
(b) the
effects of any Bail-In Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:
(i) a
reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;
153
(ii) a
conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution,
its parent entity, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments
of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document;
or
(iii) the
variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the Write-Down and Conversion Powers of the applicable Resolution
Authority.
Section 9.22. No
Fiduciary Duty, etc.
(a) Each
Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that no Credit Party will have any obligations
except those obligations expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents and each Credit Party is acting solely in the capacity
of an arm’s length contractual counterparty to each Borrower with respect to the Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated
herein and therein and not as a financial advisor or a fiduciary to, or an agent of, any Borrower or any other person. Each Borrower
agrees that it will not assert any claim against any Credit Party based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by such Credit Party in
connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Additionally, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees that no
Credit Party is advising any Borrower as to any legal, tax, investment, accounting, regulatory or any other matters in any jurisdiction.
Each Borrower shall consult with its own advisors concerning such matters and shall be responsible for making its own independent investigation
and appraisal of the transactions contemplated herein or in the other Loan Documents, and the Credit Parties shall have no responsibility
or liability to any Borrower with respect thereto.
(b) Each
Borrower further acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party, together with
its Affiliates, in addition to providing or participating in commercial lending facilities such as that provided hereunder, is a full
service securities or banking firm engaged in securities trading and brokerage activities as well as providing investment banking and
other financial services. In the ordinary course of business, any Credit Party may provide investment banking and other financial services
to, and/or acquire, hold or sell, for its own accounts and the accounts of customers, equity, debt and other securities and financial
instruments (including bank loans and other obligations) of, any Borrower and other companies with which any Borrower may have commercial
or other relationships. With respect to any securities and/or financial instruments so held by any Credit Party or any of its customers,
all rights in respect of such securities and financial instruments, including any voting rights, will be exercised by the holder of the
rights, in its sole discretion.
(c) In
addition, each Borrower acknowledges and agrees, and acknowledges its Subsidiaries’ understanding, that each Credit Party and its
affiliates may be providing debt financing, equity capital or other services (including financial advisory services) to other companies
in respect of which a Borrower may have conflicting interests regarding the transactions described herein and otherwise. No Credit Party
will use confidential information obtained from any Borrower by virtue of the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents or its
other relationships with such Borrower in connection with the performance by such Credit Party of services for other companies, and no
Credit Party will furnish any such information to other companies. Each Borrower also acknowledges that no Credit Party has any obligation
to use in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Loan Documents, or to furnish to any Borrower, confidential information
obtained from other companies.
154
Section 9.23. Acknowledgement
Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Agreements
or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported
QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation
under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with
the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported
QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in
fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States):
In the event a Covered Entity
that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special
Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in
or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support)
from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution
Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the
laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes
subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply
to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no
greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the
Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it
is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights
of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.
Article X
Loan Guaranty
Section 10.01. Guaranty.
Each Loan Guarantor (other than those that have delivered a separate Guaranty) hereby agrees that it is jointly and severally liable
for, and, as a primary obligor and not merely as surety, absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees to the Secured Parties,
the prompt payment when due, whether at stated maturity, upon acceleration or otherwise, and at all times thereafter, of the Secured
Obligations and all costs and expenses, including, without limitation, all court costs and attorneys’ and paralegals’ fees
and expenses paid or incurred by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders in endeavoring to collect all or any part
of the Secured Obligations from, or in prosecuting any action against, any Borrower, any Loan Guarantor or any other guarantor of all
or any part of the Secured Obligations (such costs and expenses, together with the Secured Obligations, collectively the “Guaranteed
Obligations”; provided, however, that the definition of “Guaranteed Obligations” shall not
create any guarantee by any Loan Guarantor of (or grant of security interest by any Loan Guarantor to support, as applicable) any Excluded
Swap Obligations of such Loan Guarantor for purposes of determining any obligations of any Loan Guarantor). Each Loan Guarantor further
agrees that the Guaranteed Obligations may be extended or renewed in whole or in part without notice to or further assent from it, and
that it remains bound upon its guarantee notwithstanding any such extension or renewal. All terms of this Loan Guaranty apply to and
may be enforced by or on behalf of any domestic or foreign branch or Affiliate of any Lender that extended any portion of the Guaranteed
Obligations.
155
Section 10.02. Guaranty
of Payment. This Loan Guaranty is a guaranty of payment and not of collection. Each Loan Guarantor waives any right to require the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to sue any Borrower, any Loan Guarantor, any other guarantor of, or any other Person
obligated for, all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations (each, an “Obligated Party”), or otherwise to enforce
its payment against any collateral securing all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations.
Section 10.03. No
Discharge or Diminishment of Loan Guaranty.
(a) Except
as otherwise provided for herein, the obligations of each Loan Guarantor hereunder are unconditional and absolute and not subject to
any reduction, limitation, impairment or termination for any reason (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed
Obligations), including: (i) any claim of waiver, release, extension, renewal, settlement, surrender, alteration or compromise
of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, by operation of law or otherwise; (ii) any change in the corporate existence, structure or
ownership of any Borrower or any other Obligated Party liable for any of the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any insolvency, bankruptcy,
reorganization or other similar proceeding affecting any Obligated Party or their assets or any resulting release or discharge of any
obligation of any Obligated Party; or (iv) the existence of any claim, setoff or other rights which any Loan Guarantor may have
at any time against any Obligated Party, the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank, any Lender or any other Person, whether in connection
herewith or in any unrelated transactions.
(b) The
obligations of each Loan Guarantor hereunder are not subject to any defense or setoff, counterclaim, recoupment or termination whatsoever
by reason of the invalidity, illegality or unenforceability of any of the Guaranteed Obligations or otherwise, or any provision of applicable
law or regulation purporting to prohibit payment by any Obligated Party, of the Guaranteed Obligations or any part thereof.
(c) Further,
the obligations of any Loan Guarantor hereunder are not discharged or impaired or otherwise affected by: (i) the failure of the
Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender to assert any claim or demand or to enforce any remedy with respect to all or any
part of the Guaranteed Obligations; (ii) any waiver or modification of or supplement to any provision of any agreement relating
to the Guaranteed Obligations; (iii) any release, non-perfection or invalidity of any indirect or direct security for the obligations
of any Borrower for all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations or any obligations of any other Obligated Party liable for any of the
Guaranteed Obligations; (iv) any action or failure to act by the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank or any Lender with respect
to any collateral securing any part of the Guaranteed Obligations; or (v) any default, failure or delay, willful or otherwise,
in the payment or performance of any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other circumstance, act, omission or delay that might in any
manner or to any extent vary the risk of such Loan Guarantor or that would otherwise operate as a discharge of any Loan Guarantor as
a matter of law or equity (other than the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations).
Section 10.04. Defenses
Waived. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor hereby waives any defense based on or arising out
of any defense of any Borrower or any Loan Guarantor or the unenforceability of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations from any
cause, or the cessation from any cause of the liability of any Borrower, any Loan Guarantor or any other Obligated Party, other than
the indefeasible payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Loan Guarantor
irrevocably waives acceptance hereof, presentment, demand, protest and, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any notice not provided
for herein, as well as any requirement that at any time any action be taken by any Person against any Obligated Party or any other Person.
Each Loan Guarantor confirms that it is not a surety under any state law and shall not raise any such law as a defense to its obligations
hereunder. The Administrative Agent may, at its election, foreclose on any Collateral held by it by one or more judicial or nonjudicial
sales, accept an assignment of any such Collateral in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise act or fail to act with respect to any collateral
securing all or a part of the Guaranteed Obligations, compromise or adjust any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, make any other accommodation
with any Obligated Party or exercise any other right or remedy available to it against any Obligated Party, without affecting or impairing
in any way the liability of such Loan Guarantor under this Loan Guaranty except to the extent the Guaranteed Obligations have been fully
and indefeasibly paid in cash. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, each Loan Guarantor waives any defense arising out
of any such election even though that election may operate, pursuant to applicable law, to impair or extinguish any right of reimbursement
or subrogation or other right or remedy of any Loan Guarantor against any Obligated Party or any security.
156
Section 10.05. Rights
of Subrogation. No Loan Guarantor will assert any right, claim or cause of action, including, without limitation, a claim of subrogation,
contribution or indemnification, that it has against any Obligated Party or any collateral, until the Loan Parties and the Loan Guarantors
have fully performed all their obligations to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders.
Section 10.06. Reinstatement;
Stay of Acceleration. If at any time any payment of any portion of the Guaranteed Obligations (including a payment effected through
exercise of a right of setoff) is rescinded, or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization
of any Borrower or otherwise (including pursuant to any settlement entered into by a Secured Party in its discretion), each Loan Guarantor’s
obligations under this Loan Guaranty with respect to that payment shall be reinstated at such time as though the payment had not been
made and whether or not the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders are in possession of this Loan Guaranty. If acceleration
of the time for payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is stayed upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of any Borrower,
all such amounts otherwise subject to acceleration under the terms of any agreement relating to the Guaranteed Obligations shall nonetheless
be payable by the Loan Guarantors forthwith on demand by the Administrative Agent.
Section 10.07. Information.
Each Loan Guarantor assumes all responsibility for being and keeping itself informed of the Borrowers’ financial condition and
assets, and of all other circumstances bearing upon the risk of nonpayment of the Guaranteed Obligations and the nature, scope and extent
of the risks that each Loan Guarantor assumes and incurs under this Loan Guaranty, and agrees that none of the Administrative Agent,
the Issuing Bank or any Lender shall have any duty to advise any Loan Guarantor of information known to it regarding those circumstances
or risks.
Section 10.08. Termination.
Each of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank may continue to make loans or extend credit to the Borrowers based on this Loan Guaranty until
five (5) days after it receives written notice of termination from any Loan Guarantor. Notwithstanding receipt of any such notice,
each Loan Guarantor will continue to be liable to the Lenders for any Guaranteed Obligations created, assumed or committed to prior to
the fifth day after receipt of the notice, and all subsequent renewals, extensions, modifications and amendments with respect to, or
substitutions for, all or any part of such Guaranteed Obligations. Nothing in this Section 10.08 shall be deemed to constitute
a waiver of, or eliminate, limit, reduce or otherwise impair any rights or remedies the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have in
respect of, any Default or Event of Default that shall exist under Article VII hereof as a result of any such notice of
termination.
Section 10.09. Taxes.
Any obligation of any Borrower under Section 2.17 of this Agreement to pay any additional amounts to, or indemnify, any
Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent for any Taxes that are required to be withheld or deducted from payments made
to any Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative Agent or to pay for, or indemnify any Lender, Issuing Bank, or the Administrative
Agent for, any Other Taxes, shall apply mutatis mutandis (and without duplication) to each Loan Guarantor with respect to this Loan Guaranty
and payments made with respect to Guaranteed Obligations.
157
Section 10.10. Maximum
Liability. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Loan Guaranty, the amount guaranteed by each Loan Guarantor hereunder shall
be limited to the extent, if any, required so that its obligations hereunder shall not be subject to avoidance under Section 548
of the Bankruptcy Code or under any applicable state Uniform Fraudulent Transfer Act, Uniform Fraudulent Conveyance Act, Uniform Voidable
Transactions Act or similar statute or common law. In determining the limitations, if any, on the amount of any Loan Guarantor’s
obligations hereunder pursuant to the preceding sentence, it is the intention of the parties hereto that any rights of subrogation, indemnification
or contribution which such Loan Guarantor may have under this Loan Guaranty, any other agreement or applicable law shall be taken into
account.
Section 10.11. Contribution.
(a) To
the extent that any Loan Guarantor shall make a payment under this Loan Guaranty (a “Guarantor Payment”) which, taking
into account all other Guarantor Payments then previously or concurrently made by any other Loan Guarantor, exceeds the amount which
otherwise would have been paid by or attributable to such Loan Guarantor if each Loan Guarantor had paid the aggregate Guaranteed Obligations
satisfied by such Guarantor Payment in the same proportion as such Loan Guarantor’s “Allocable Amount” (as defined
below) (as determined immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment) bore to the aggregate Allocable Amounts of each of the Loan Guarantors
as determined immediately prior to the making of such Guarantor Payment, then, following indefeasible payment in full in cash of the
Guarantor Payment and the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Unliquidated Obligations that have not yet arisen), and all Commitments
and Letters of Credit have terminated or expired or, in the case of all Letters of Credit, are fully collateralized on terms reasonably
acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank, and this Agreement, the Swap Agreement Obligations and the Banking Services
Obligations have terminated, such Loan Guarantor shall be entitled to receive contribution and indemnification payments from, and be
reimbursed by, each other Loan Guarantor for the amount of such excess, pro rata based upon their respective Allocable Amounts in effect
immediately prior to such Guarantor Payment.
(b) As
of any date of determination, the “Allocable Amount” of any Loan Guarantor shall be equal to the excess of the fair
saleable value of the property of such Loan Guarantor over the total liabilities of such Loan Guarantor (including the maximum amount
reasonably expected to become due in respect of contingent liabilities, calculated, without duplication, assuming each other Loan Guarantor
that is also liable for such contingent liability pays its ratable share thereof), giving effect to all payments made by other Loan Guarantors
as of such date in a manner to maximize the amount of such contributions.
(c) This
Section 10.11 is intended only to define the relative rights of the Loan Guarantors, and nothing set forth in this Section 10.11
is intended to or shall impair the obligations of the Loan Guarantors, jointly and severally, to pay any amounts as and when the same
shall become due and payable in accordance with the terms of this Loan Guaranty.
(d) The
parties hereto acknowledge that the rights of contribution and indemnification hereunder shall constitute assets of the Loan Guarantor
or Loan Guarantors to which such contribution and indemnification is owing.
(e) The
rights of the indemnifying Loan Guarantors against other Loan Guarantors under this Section 10.11 shall be exercisable upon
satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions.
Section 10.12. Liability
Cumulative. The liability of each Loan Party as a Loan Guarantor under this Article X is in addition to and shall be
cumulative with all liabilities of each Loan Party to the Administrative Agent, the Issuing Bank and the Lenders under this Agreement
and the other Loan Documents to which such Loan Party is a party or in respect of any obligations or liabilities of the other Loan Parties,
without any limitation as to amount, unless the instrument or agreement evidencing or creating such other liability specifically provides
to the contrary.
158
Section 10.13. Keepwell.
Each Qualified ECP Guarantor hereby jointly and severally absolutely, unconditionally and irrevocably undertakes to provide such funds
or other support as may be needed from time to time by each other Loan Party to honor all of its obligations under this Guarantee in
respect of a Swap Obligation (provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Guarantor shall only be liable under this Section 10.13
for the maximum amount of such liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 10.13
or otherwise under this Loan Guaranty voidable under applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not
for any greater amount). Except as otherwise provided herein, the obligations of each Qualified ECP Guarantor under this Section 10.13
shall remain in full force and effect until satisfaction of the Final Release Conditions. Each Qualified ECP Guarantor intends that this
Section 10.13 constitute, and this Section 10.13 shall be deemed to constitute, a “keepwell, support,
or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Loan Party for all purposes of Section 1a(18)(A)(v)(II) of the Commodity
Exchange Act.
Article XI
The Borrower Representative
Section 11.01. Appointment;
Nature of Relationship. The Company is hereby appointed by each of the Borrowers as its contractual representative (herein referred
to as the “Borrower Representative”) hereunder and under each other Loan Document, and each of the Borrowers irrevocably
authorizes the Borrower Representative to act as the contractual representative of such Borrower with the rights and duties expressly
set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents. The Borrower Representative agrees to act as such contractual representative upon the
express conditions contained in this Article XI. Additionally, the Borrowers hereby appoint the Borrower Representative
as their agent to receive all of the proceeds of the Loans in the Funding Account(s), at which time the Borrower Representative shall
promptly disburse such Loans to the appropriate Borrower(s); provided that, in the case of a Revolving Loan, such amount shall
not cause the Borrowers to violate the Revolving Exposure Limitations. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and their respective
officers, directors, agents or employees, shall not be liable to the Borrower Representative or any Borrower for any action taken or
omitted to be taken by the Borrower Representative or the Borrowers pursuant to this Section 11.01.
Section 11.02. Powers.
The Borrower Representative shall have and may exercise such powers under the Loan Documents as are specifically delegated to the Borrower
Representative by the terms of each thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The Borrower Representative
shall have no implied duties to the Borrowers, or any obligation to the Lenders to take any action thereunder except any action specifically
provided by the Loan Documents to be taken by the Borrower Representative.
Section 11.03. Employment
of Agents. The Borrower Representative may execute any of its duties as the Borrower Representative hereunder and under any other
Loan Document by or through authorized officers.
Section 11.04. Notices.
Each Borrower shall immediately notify the Borrower Representative of the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default hereunder referring
to this Agreement describing such Default or Event of Default and stating that such notice is a “notice of default”. In the
event that the Borrower Representative receives such a notice, the Borrower Representative shall give prompt notice thereof to the Administrative
Agent and the Lenders. Any notice provided to the Borrower Representative hereunder shall constitute notice to each Borrower on the date
received by the Borrower Representative.
159
Section 11.05. Successor
Borrower Representative. Upon the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, the Borrower Representative may resign at any
time, such resignation to be effective upon the appointment of a successor Borrower Representative. The Administrative Agent shall give
prompt written notice of such resignation to the Lenders.
Section 11.06. Execution
of Loan Documents; Borrowing Base Certificate. The Borrowers hereby empower and authorize the Borrower Representative, on behalf
of the Borrowers, to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders the Loan Documents and all related agreements, certificates,
documents, or instruments as shall be necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of the Loan Documents, including, without limitation,
the Borrowing Base Certificate and the Compliance Certificate. Each Borrower agrees that any action taken by the Borrower Representative
or the Borrowers in accordance with the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and the exercise by the Borrower Representative
of its powers set forth therein or herein, together with such other powers that are reasonably incidental thereto, shall be binding upon
all of the Borrowers.
Section 11.07. Reporting.
Each Borrower hereby agrees that such Borrower shall furnish promptly after each fiscal month to the Borrower Representative a copy of
its Borrowing Base Certificate and any other certificate or report required hereunder or requested by the Borrower Representative on
which the Borrower Representative shall rely to prepare the Borrowing Base Certificate and Compliance Certificate required pursuant to
the provisions of this Agreement.
