As further described in Item 2.01 below, on May 5, 2026, VSE completed the PAG Acquisition (the “Closing”).

Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Exchange and Redemption Agreement

On May 5, 2026, in connection with the Closing, VSE, Rollover Purchaser and Seller entered into an exchange and redemption agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”), as described in VSE’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on January 29, 2026, which description is incorporated herein by reference.

The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Exchange Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.3 hereto and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Registration Rights Agreement

On May 5, 2026, in connection with the Closing, VSE and Seller entered into a registration rights agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), as described in VSE’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 29, 2026, which description is incorporated herein by reference.

The foregoing description of the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Registration Rights Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 2.4 hereto and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Lock-Up Agreements

On May 5, 2026, in connection with the Closing, VSE and Seller entered into (i) a lock-up agreement covering the shares to be issued to Seller pursuant to the Exchange Agreement (the “Closing Lock-Up Agreement”) and (ii) a lock-up agreement covering any shares to be issued to Seller pursuant to the Purchase Agreement as an Earnout Payment (as defined herein) (the “Earnout Lock-Up Agreement” and, together with the Closing Lock-Up Agreement, the “Lock-Up Agreements”), as described in VSE’s Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the SEC on January 29, 2026, which description is incorporated herein by reference.

The foregoing description of the Lock-Up Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Closing Lock-Up Agreement and the Earnout Lock-Up Agreement, copies of which are attached as Exhibit 2.5 and Exhibit 2.6 hereto, respectively, and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Credit Agreement Amendment

On May 5, 2026, the Company, as the borrower, and its domestic wholly owned subsidiaries, as guarantors (collectively, together with the Company, the “Loan Parties”), entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its existing senior secured credit agreement, dated as of May 2, 2025 (as amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the “Credit Agreement”), with certain banks and financial institutions as lenders (the “Lenders”), Citizens Bank, N.A., as revolver administrative agent and collateral agent, and Royal Bank of Canada, as term loan B agent. The First Amendment provides for, among other things, (i) a new senior secured term loan B facility in an aggregate principal amount of $900.0 million (the “New Term Facility”) and (ii) an upsize

to the Company’s existing senior secured revolving credit facility from $400.0 million to $500.0 million (the “Revolving Facility”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the same meanings ascribed to them in the Credit Agreement.

The Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the assets of the Loan Parties (subject to certain customary exceptions) and contains a total net leverage ratio covenant and an interest coverage ratio covenant, neither of which is applicable to the New Term Facility, customary representations and warranties, and other affirmative and negative covenants. The covenants include limitations or restrictions on the incurrence of indebtedness, the occurrence of a change of control of VSE, purchases of VSE’s common stock, the payment of dividends on VSE’s equity interests, the making of investments, asset dispositions, and acquisitions. The Credit Agreement defines events of default and acceleration provisions.

The Revolving Facility will mature on May 2, 2030. The New Term Facility will mature on May 5, 2033 and will amortize in equal quarterly installments of $9 million per year commencing with the first full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, with the balance of outstanding borrowings payable on the final maturity date (subject to certain exceptions as provided in the Credit Agreement).

Borrowings under the New Term Facility will accrue interest at either the Term SOFR Rate plus 2.00% or ABR plus 1.00%, in each case subject to a 25 basis point reduction when the First Lien Net Leverage Ratio is less than 1.75:1.00. Borrowings under the Revolving Facility will accrue interest at either the Term SOFR Rate plus 1.25%-2.25% or ABR plus 0.25%-1.25%, in each case based on a total net leverage ratio test as set forth in the Credit Agreement. The Company, at its option, may select between one, three or six month Term SOFR Rates.

On May 5, 2026, the Company borrowed $900.0 million under the New Term Facility. The proceeds of the New Term Facility were used by the Company on the Closing Date (i) to fund a portion of the purchase price for the PAG Acquisition, (ii) to repay certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the PAG Acquisition, (iii) to repay all of the Company’s outstanding borrowings under its existing senior secured term loan A facility and (iv) for general corporate purposes.

The foregoing description of the Credit Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Credit Agreement, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and the terms of which are incorporated herein by reference.

Item 2.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

The information included in the Introductory Note is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.01.

On May 5, 2026, pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, VSE acquired all of the capital stock of PAG HoldCo from the Seller for an up-front consideration equal to $2.025 billion, subject to customary adjustments, consisting of $1.75 billion in cash (the “Cash Consideration”) and approximately $275 million of newly issued Rollover Purchaser Shares (as defined below), and up to an additional $125 million in contingent payment payable in cash, shares of common stock, par value $0.05 per share, of VSE (the “VSE Common Stock”) or a combination thereof, at VSE’s sole discretion, to Seller if PAG HoldCo and its subsidiaries achieve certain profitability targets in fiscal year 2026 (the “Earnout Payment”). At the Closing, (i) Rollover Purchaser issued shares of Class B Common Stock, par value $0.05 per share (“Rollover Purchaser Shares”), to Seller in exchange for issued and outstanding shares of PAG HoldCo held by Seller with an aggregate value equal to approximately $275 million (such transaction, the “First Exchange”), (ii) Cash Purchaser paid the Cash Consideration to Seller and, in exchange for the Cash Consideration, Seller transferred to Cash Purchaser all of the shares of PAG HoldCo held by Seller that were not transferred to Rollover Purchaser pursuant to the First Exchange, and (iii) Rollover Purchaser contributed the shares of PAG HoldCo acquired in the First Exchange to Cash Purchaser immediately following receipt by Rollover Purchaser such that Cash Purchaser holds 100% of the capital stock of PAG HoldCo. Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, Seller has the right to exchange all or a portion of the Rollover Purchaser Shares for shares of VSE Common Stock on a one-for-one basis, subject to customary antidilution and change of control adjustments. The offer, issuance and sale of the Rollover Purchaser Shares was, and the issuance of VSE Common Stock upon exchange of such Rollover Purchaser Shares will be, made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the First Amendment.

from any such proceeding.

Section 4.3 Reservation of Shares. The Company shall, at all times while shares of Class B

Common Stock are outstanding or are issuable (whether such obligation is absolute or contingent) pursuant to this Agreement and/or the Articles, reserve and keep available, from its authorized and unissued share capital, sufficient Common Shares

solely for issuance and delivery as and when required under this Agreement and/or the Articles.

Section 4.4 Dilutive Actions;

Issuances; Fundamental Transactions.

(a) If there is (i) any division or subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification,

recapitalization, reorganization or otherwise) or combination or consolidation (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization or otherwise) of any share of common stock of Rollover Purchaser, the Company shall cause it to be

accompanied by an identical proportionate division, subdivision, consolidation or combination of the Common Shares; or (ii) any division or subdivision (by split, distribution, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization or otherwise) or

combination or consolidation (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization, reorganization or otherwise) of the Common Shares, the Company and Rollover Purchaser shall cause it to be accompanied by an identical proportionate division,

subdivision, consolidation or combination of the shares of common stock of Rollover Purchaser. In the event that the Company shall cause a dividend or other distribution to be made on the Common Shares (whether in the form of cash, securities,

properties or other assets, and including an issuance of rights, options or warrants to all or substantially all holders of Common Shares), the Company shall take all necessary actions (including making contributions of cash, securities, property or

other assets) so as to allow Rollover Purchaser to declare and pay and effect, and Rollover Purchaser shall declare and pay and effect (and the Company shall cause Rollover Purchaser to declare and pay and effect), a dividend or distribution on each

share of Class B Common Stock which shall be identical to the dividend or distribution paid on each Common Share, at the same time as such dividend or distribution shall be paid on the Common Shares.

(b) In the event of any third party or issuer tender offer, merger, acquisition, reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, dissolution,

liquidation, wind-up or other similar transaction of the Company involving a payment or distribution of cash, securities or other assets to the holders of Common Shares or as a result of which the Common

Shares are converted into, among other things, another security and the shares of Class B Common Stock shall remain outstanding (a “Fundamental Transaction”), then the redemption provisions of this Agreement shall thereafter

permit the redemption of shares of Class B Common Stock in connection with such Fundamental Transaction for the amount of such cash, securities or other assets which the Redeeming Shareholder would have received had it made a redemption for

Common Shares

immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, regardless of whether such redemption would actually have been permitted at such time and taking into account any adjustment as a result of any

division or subdivision (by any split or stock dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination or consolidation (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or otherwise) of such security,

securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such Fundamental Transaction; provided that if delivery of such cash, securities or other assets may not be effected in whole or in part for any reason or if the entitlement of the

Redeeming Shareholder thereto shall otherwise be negatively impacted, the Exchange Ratio shall be equitably adjusted in accordance with commonly accepted financial practice and subject to any applicable stock exchange approval. For the avoidance of

doubt, if there is any Fundamental Transaction in which the Common Shares are converted or changed into another security, securities or other property, this Agreement shall continue to be applicable, mutatis mutandis, with respect to such

security, securities or other property. In the event of any Fundamental Transaction pursuant to which the holders of Common Shares are entitled to elect the form of consideration in exchange for their Common Shares, the Company shall not consummate

such Fundamental Transaction unless and until it has provided the Redeeming Shareholder prompt written notice prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction and reasonable opportunity to elect the form of consideration which the Redeeming

Shareholder would have received had it made a redemption for Common Shares immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction, regardless of whether such redemption would actually have been permitted at such time and taking into account any

adjustment as a result of any division or subdivision (by any split, distribution or dividend, reclassification, reorganization, recapitalization or otherwise) or combination or consolidation (by reverse split, reclassification, recapitalization or

otherwise) of such security, securities or other property that occurs after the effective time of such Fundamental Transaction.

Company shall provide the Redeeming Shareholder with prompt written notice of any transaction referred to in clause (a) and (b) of this Section 4.4 involving the Common Shares promptly

after the Company provides notice of any such proposed transaction, or otherwise proposes such transaction, to its shareholders but in no event later than the earliest of (i) ten (10) Business Days prior to the record date of such transaction,

if applicable, (ii) twenty (20) Business Days prior to the applicable effective date or expiration date of such transaction, and (iii) such time as notice thereof shall be required to be given pursuant to Rule 10b-17 under the Exchange Act, in each case so that such holders may participate by exercising their rights under Section 2.2 in any such transaction. Such notice shall specify all material

terms of such transaction, the record date (if applicable), the proposed date of consummation of such transaction, and the effect of such transaction on the Exchange Ratio.

LAW MATTERS

Section 6.1 Securities Law Transfer Restrictions.

(a) Common Shares. The Redeeming Shareholder agrees that it shall not offer, sell or otherwise transfer any Common Shares issued

pursuant to this Agreement in violation of the Initial Share Lock-Up Agreement.

(b) Class B

Common Stock. The Redeeming Shareholder and any Permitted Transferee, as applicable, agrees that the shares of Class B Common Stock referred to in this Agreement have not been registered under the Securities Act and, therefore, such shares

of Class B Common Stock may not be offered, sold or otherwise transferred except in the absence of a registration or an exemption therefrom pursuant to applicable law.

Section 6.2 Shareholder Register and Notation.

(a) Common Shares. Each of the Company, Rollover Purchaser and the Redeeming Shareholder acknowledges and agrees that all Reciprocal

Common Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement shall be issued and registered in the Company’s securities register. In connection with the issuance of Reciprocal Common Shares, the Company, Rollover Purchaser and the Redeeming Shareholder

acknowledge the following notation (or a similar notation) may be placed in the Company’s securities register:

“THE COMMON

SHARES HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR THE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OR OTHER JURISDICTION. NEITHER THIS SECURITY NOR ANY INTEREST OR PARTICIPATION HEREIN MAY BE

REOFFERED, SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE DISPOSED OF IN THE ABSENCE OF SUCH REGISTRATION OR AN EXEMPTION THEREFROM PURSUANT TO APPLICABLE LAW. ANY OFFER, SALE, ASSIGNMENT, TRANSFER OR OTHER DISPOSITION OF THIS

SECURITY IN A TRANSACTION THAT IS NOT REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT IS SUBJECT TO THE COMPANY’S RIGHT TO REQUIRE DELIVERY OF AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, CERTIFICATION AND/OR OTHER INFORMATION SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY.”

If such notation has been placed in the Company’s securities register, the Company shall, at the

request of the Redeeming Shareholder, remove or cause to be removed from such register the notation described in this Section 6.2(a), if it is reasonably satisfied (based upon opinion of counsel addressed to the Company

reasonably satisfactory to the Company and Rollover Purchaser, or in the case of the Redeeming Shareholder proposing to transfer such securities, pursuant to Rule 144(b)(1) under the Securities Act, a customary certificate addressed to the Company

confirming compliance with such exemption, reasonably satisfactory to the Company and Rollover Purchaser) that such notation is no longer required under applicable requirements of the Securities Act.

(b) Transfer Registration. The Company shall register all issuances and transfers of Reciprocal Common Shares made in accordance with

the terms of this Agreement in its securities register.

Section 6.3 Supplemental Listing. If any of the Common Shares are

listed on one or more Recognized Securities Exchanges, the Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that the Reciprocal Common Shares issuable hereunder shall be duly approved for listing subject to official notice of

issuance on each Recognized Securities Exchange, if any, on which the Common Shares are then listed. The Company shall take all such actions as may be necessary to ensure that all such Reciprocal Common Shares may be so issued without violation of

any requirements of any domestic stock exchange upon which Common Shares may be listed (except for official notice of issuance which shall be immediately delivered by the Company upon each such issuance).

existing may be exercised, from time to time and as often and in such order as may be deemed expedient by the Redeeming Shareholder.

Section 7.3 Effect of Delay or Omission to Pursue Remedy. No single or partial

waiver by a party of any right, power or remedy, or delay or omission by any party in the exercise of any right, power or remedy which they may have shall impair any such right, power or remedy or operate as a waiver thereof or of any other right,

power or remedy then or thereafter existing. Any waiver given by any party of any right, power or remedy in any one instance shall only be effective in that specific instance, and only by the party expressly giving such waiver, and only for the

purpose for which given, and will not be construed as a waiver of any right, power or remedy on any future occasion.

contemplated hereby, agrees that all claims in respect of the Proceeding may be heard and determined in any such court and agrees not to bring any Proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby in any

other court. Each of the parties waives any defense of inconvenient forum to the maintenance of any Proceeding so brought and waives any bond, surety or other security that might be required of any other party with respect thereto. Each of the

parties hereto agrees that service of summons and complaint or any other process that might be served in any Proceeding may be made on such party

by sending or delivering a copy of the process to the party to be served at the address of the party and in the manner provided for the giving of notices in

Section 7.10; provided, however, that nothing in this Section 7.5(b) shall affect the right of any party hereto to serve legal process in any other manner permitted by law. Each party hereto agrees

that a final, non-appealable judgment in any action or Proceeding so brought shall be conclusive and may be enforced by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law

(c) TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE PARTIES HERETO HEREBY WAIVE THEIR RESPECTIVE RIGHTS TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF

ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THEM RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS TRANSACTION. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL

DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS. THE PARTIES HERETO ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS

WAIVER IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT TO ENTER INTO A BUSINESS RELATIONSHIP, THAT EACH HAS ALREADY RELIED ON THE WAIVER IN ENTERING INTO THIS AGREEMENT AND THAT EACH WILL CONTINUE TO RELY ON THE WAIVER IN THEIR RELATED FUTURE DEALINGS. THE PARTIES HERETO

FURTHER WARRANT AND REPRESENT THAT EACH HAS REVIEWED THIS WAIVER WITH ITS, HIS OR HER, AS THE CASE MAY BE, LEGAL COUNSEL, AND THAT EACH KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY WAIVES ITS JURY TRIAL RIGHTS FOLLOWING CONSULTATION WITH LEGAL COUNSEL. THIS WAIVER IS

IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THE WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE

TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

Section 7.6 Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the

parties hereto and their respective heirs, executors, successors and permitted assigns, but except as contemplated herein, neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, directly or indirectly, by

operation of Law or otherwise, by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other parties hereto; provided, that, (x) the Company may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder in connection

with a Fundamental Transaction in a manner consistent with the terms of such Fundamental Transaction and Section 4.4 without the consent of the Redeeming Shareholder and (y) subject to the satisfaction of the requirements in

Section 6.1(b), the Redeeming Shareholder may assign this Agreement or any of its rights, interests or obligations hereunder to its Permitted Transferees without the consent of the Company or the Rollover Purchaser, and such Permitted

Transferees shall be deemed Redeeming Shareholders hereunder, entitled to all rights and subject to all obligations of the Redeeming Shareholder hereunder. Any attempted assignment in violation of this Section 7.6 shall be

void.

Section 7.7 Specific Performance. The parties hereto agree that irreparable

damage would occur in the event that any party hereto does not perform or threatens not to perform the provisions of this Agreement (including failing to take such actions as are required of it hereunder to consummate this Agreement) in accordance

with the specific terms thereof or otherwise breaches or threatens to breach such provisions, and that money damages would not be an adequate remedy, even if available. The parties hereto accordingly agree that each of the parties shall be entitled

to an injunction or injunctions, or any other appropriate form of specific performance or equitable relief, to prevent breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any court of

competent jurisdiction, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the parties hereto agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable

relief on the basis that any other party hereto has an adequate remedy at law or that any award of specific performance is not an appropriate remedy for any reason at law or in equity. Any party hereto seeking an injunction or injunctions to prevent

breaches or threatened breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

Section 7.8 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended, modified or supplemented at any time only by written agreement signed by the

parties. Any failure of the Company or Rollover Purchaser to comply with any term or provision of this Agreement may be waived by the Redeeming Shareholder, and any failure of the Redeeming Shareholder to comply with any term or provision of this

Agreement may be waived by the Company, at any time by an instrument in writing signed by or on behalf of such other party, but such waiver shall not operate as a waiver of, or estoppel with respect to, any subsequent or other failure to comply.

Further, neither the waiver by any of the parties hereto of a breach of or a default under any of the provisions of this Agreement, nor the failure by any of the parties, on one or more occasions, to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement

or to exercise any right or privilege hereunder, shall be construed as a waiver of any other breach or default of a similar nature, or as a waiver of any of such provisions, rights or privileges hereunder.

Section 7.9 Severability. If any term or other provision of this Agreement for any reason is declared invalid, illegal or

unenforceable, such decision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any of the other provisions of this Agreement, which other provisions shall remain in full force and effect and the application of such invalid or unenforceable

provision to Persons or circumstances other than those as to which it is held invalid, illegal or unenforceable shall be valid and be enforced to the fullest extent permitted by applicable Law. Upon such declaration that any term or other provision

is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties to this Agreement shall negotiate in good faith to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in

order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the greatest extent possible.

Section 7.10 Notices. All notices, requests, demands, waivers and communications

required or permitted to be given under this Agreement shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if delivered (a) by hand (including by reputable overnight courier), (b) by mail (certified or registered mail, return

ARTICLE II

REGISTRATIONS AND OFFERINGS

2.1 Shelf Registration.

2.1.1 Filing. As soon as practicable but not later than ninety (90) days following the Closing Date, the Company shall use

its commercially reasonable efforts to submit to or file with the Commission (x) a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-3 (the “Form

S-3 Shelf”) (it being agreed that the Form S-3 Shelf shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the

Securities Act) if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date), or (y) if the Company is not then eligible to use a Form

S-3 Shelf, a Registration Statement for a Shelf Registration on Form S-1 (the “Form S-1 Shelf”), in the case

of each of (x) and (y) above, covering the resale of all the Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such submission or filing) on a delayed or continuous basis and shall use its commercially reasonable

efforts to have such Shelf declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof (if such Shelf is not deemed automatically effective upon filing pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission), but no later than the earlier of

(a) the one hundred fiftieth (150th) calendar day following the Closing Date if the Commission notifies the Company that it will “review” the Registration Statement and (b) the tenth (10th) Business Day after the date the

Company is notified (orally or in writing, whichever is earlier) by the Commission that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review. Such Shelf shall provide for the resale of the

Registrable Securities included therein pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holder. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to maintain a Shelf in accordance with the terms

hereof, and shall prepare and file with the Commission such amendments, including post-effective amendments, and supplements as may be necessary to keep a Shelf continuously effective, available for use to permit the Holder named therein to sell its

Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable Securities. In the event the Company files a Form S-1

Shelf, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to convert the Form S-1 Shelf (and any Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement) to a Form S-3 Shelf as

soon as practicable after the Company is eligible to use Form S-3. The Company’s obligation under this Section 2.1.1 shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to

Section 3.4.

2.1.2 Subsequent Shelf Registration. If any Shelf ceases to be effective under the

Securities Act for any reason at any time while Registrable Securities are still outstanding, the Company shall, subject to Section 3.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable

cause such Shelf to again become effective under the Securities Act (including using its commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the prompt withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf), and shall use its commercially

reasonable efforts to as promptly as is reasonably practicable amend such Shelf in a manner reasonably expected to result in the withdrawal of any order suspending the effectiveness of such Shelf or file an additional registration statement as a

Shelf Registration (a “Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement”) registering the resale of all Registrable Securities (determined as of two (2) Business Days prior to such filing), and pursuant to any method or combination of

methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holder. If a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is filed, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to (i) cause such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement to become

effective under the Securities Act (if such Shelf is not deemed automatically effective upon filing pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission) as promptly as is reasonably practicable after the filing thereof (it being agreed that the

Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be an automatic shelf registration statement (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the Securities Act) if the Company is a well-known seasoned issuer (as defined in Rule 405 promulgated under the

Securities Act) at the most recent applicable eligibility determination date) and (ii) keep such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement continuously effective, available for

use to permit the Holder to sell its Registrable Securities included therein and in compliance with the provisions of the Securities Act until such time as there are no longer any Registrable

Securities. Any such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be on Form S-3 to the extent that the Company is eligible to use such form. Otherwise, such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be

on another appropriate form. The Company’s obligation under this Section 2.1.2, shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be subject to Section 3.4. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the

Company’s obligation to effect a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement will be deemed fulfilled if a Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement is unable to be completed due to a misrepresentation or an omission by the Holder or one of its

Affiliates in connection with the preparation of such Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement.

2.1.3 Additional Registrable

Securities. Subject to Section 3.4, in the event that the Holder holds Registrable Securities that are not registered for resale on a delayed or continuous basis, the Company, upon written request of the Holder, shall

promptly use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause the resale of such Registrable Securities to be covered by either, at the Company’s option, any then available Shelf (including by means of a post-effective amendment) or by filing a

Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement and cause the same to become effective (if such Shelf is not deemed automatically effective upon filing pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Commission) as soon as practicable after such filing and

such Shelf or Subsequent Shelf Registration Statement shall be subject to the terms hereof; provided, however, that the Company shall only be required to cause such Registrable Securities to be so covered once per calendar year for the

Holder.

2.1.4 Requests for Underwritten Shelf Takedowns. Subject to Section 3.4, at any time and

from time to time when an effective Shelf is on file with the Commission, the Holder (the Holder being in such case, a “Demanding Holder”) may request to sell all or any portion of its Registrable Securities in an Underwritten

Offering that is registered pursuant to the Shelf (each, an “Underwritten Shelf Takedown”); provided that the Company shall only be obligated to effect an Underwritten Shelf Takedown if such offering shall include

Registrable Securities proposed to be sold by the Demanding Holder, with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, $75 million (the “Minimum Takedown Threshold”). All requests for Underwritten

Shelf Takedowns shall be made by giving written notice to the Company, which shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Underwritten Shelf Takedown.

2.1.5 The Company shall have the right to select the Underwriters for such offering (which shall consist of one or more reputable

nationally recognized investment banks). The Holder may demand not more than one (1) Underwritten Shelf Takedown pursuant to this Section 2.1.5 in any twelve (12) month period. Notwithstanding anything to the

contrary in this Agreement, the Company may effect any Underwritten Offering pursuant to any then effective Registration Statement, including a Form S-3, that is then available for such offering.

2.1.6 Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Shelf Takedown, in good

faith, advises the Company and the Demanding Holder with respect to such Underwritten Shelf Takedown in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holder desires to sell, taken together with all other

Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell

and all other Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, that have been requested to be sold in such Underwritten Offering pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration

rights held by any other stockholders, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution

method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten

Offering, before including any Common Stock or other equity securities proposed to be sold by the Company or by other holders of Common Stock or other equity securities, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holder that can be sold without

exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities. To facilitate the allocation of Registrable Securities in accordance with the above provisions, the Company or the Underwriters may round the number of shares allocated to the Holder to the nearest 100

Registrable Securities. The Company shall not be required to include any Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Shelf Takedown unless the Holder accepts the terms of the underwriting as agreed upon between the Company and its Underwriters.

2.1.7 Withdrawal. Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used for

marketing such Underwritten Shelf Takedown the Demanding Holder initiating an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall have the right to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification (a

“Withdrawal Notice”) to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of its intention to withdraw from such Underwritten Shelf Takedown. If withdrawn, a demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown shall constitute a

demand for an Underwritten Shelf Takedown by the withdrawing Demanding Holder for purposes of Section 2.1.5, unless such Demanding Holder reimburses the Company for all Registration Expenses with respect to such

Underwritten Shelf Takedown. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Shelf Takedown prior to its withdrawal under this

Section 2.1.7, other than if a Demanding Holder elects to pay such Registration Expenses pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 2.1.7.

2.2 Market Stand-off. In connection with any Underwritten Offering of equity securities

of the Company, if requested by the managing Underwriters, the Holder participating in such Underwritten Offering agrees that it shall not Transfer any Common Stock or other equity securities of the Company (other than those included in such

offering pursuant to this Agreement), without the prior written consent of the Company, during the ninety (90) day period (or such shorter time agreed to by the managing Underwriters) beginning on the date of pricing of such offering, except as

expressly permitted by a customary written lock-up agreement entered into at the time of such Underwritten Offering or in the event the managing Underwriters otherwise agree by written consent. Notwithstanding

anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.2, the Holder of Registrable Securities shall be released, pro rata, from any lock-up agreement entered into pursuant to this Section 2.2 in the

event and to the extent that the managing underwriter or the Company permits any discretionary waiver or termination of the restrictions of any lock-up agreement pertaining to any officer or director of the

Company.

ARTICLE III

cause such Registrable Securities covered by the Registration Statement to be registered with or approved by such other governmental authorities as may be necessary by virtue

3.1.14 make available to its security holders, as soon as reasonably practicable, an earnings statement

covering the period of at least twelve (12) months beginning with the first day of the Company’s first full calendar quarter after the effective date of the Registration Statement which satisfies the provisions of Section 11(a) of

the Securities Act and Rule 158 thereunder (or any successor rule then in effect), and which requirement will be deemed to be satisfied if the Company timely files complete and accurate information on Forms

10-Q and 10-K and Current Report on 8-K under the Exchange Act and otherwise complies with Rule 158 under the Securities Act (or

any successor rule then in effect);

3.1.15 with respect to an Underwritten Offering pursuant to

Section 2.1.4, use its commercially reasonable efforts to make available senior executives of the Company to participate in customary “road show” presentations that may be reasonably requested by the Underwriter

in such Underwritten Offering; and

3.1.16 otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as

may reasonably be requested by the participating Holders, consistent with the terms of this Agreement, in connection with such Registration.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company shall not be required to provide any documents or

information to an Underwriter or broker, sales agent or placement agent if such Underwriter or broker, sales agent or placement agent has not then been named with respect to the applicable Underwritten Offering or other offering involving a

registration as an Underwriter or broker, sales agent or placement agent, as applicable.

3.2 Registration Expenses. The

Registration Expenses of all Registrations shall be borne by the Company. It is acknowledged by the Holder that the Holder shall bear all incremental selling expenses relating to the sale of Registrable Securities, such as Underwriters’

commissions and discounts, brokerage fees and, other than as set forth in the definition of “Registration Expenses,” all fees and expenses of any legal counsel representing the Holder.

3.3 Requirements for Participation in Registration Statement in Offerings. The Holder of Registrable Securities shall provide

such information as may reasonably be requested by the Company, or the managing Underwriter or placement agent or sales agent, if any, in connection with the preparation of any Registration Statement or Prospectus, including amendments and

supplements thereto, in order to effect the registration of any Registrable Securities under the Securities Act pursuant to Article II and in connection with the Company’s obligation to comply with federal and applicable state

securities laws. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, if the Holder does not provide the Company with its requested Holder Information, the Company may exclude the Holder’s Registrable Securities from the applicable

Registration Statement or Prospectus if the Company determines, based on the advice of counsel, that such information is necessary to effect the registration and the Holder continues thereafter to withhold such information. No Person may participate

in any Underwritten Offering or other offering for equity securities of the Company pursuant to a Registration initiated by the Company hereunder unless such Person (i) agrees to sell such Person’s securities on the basis provided in any

underwriting, sales, distribution or placement arrangements approved by the Company and (ii) completes and executes all customary questionnaires, powers of attorney, indemnities, lock-up agreements,

underwriting or other agreements and other customary documents as may be reasonably required under the terms of such underwriting, sales, distribution or placement arrangements.

3.4 Suspension of Sales; Adverse Disclosure; Restrictions on Registration Rights.

3.4.1 Upon receipt of written notice from the Company that a Registration Statement or Prospectus contains a Misstatement, the Holder

shall forthwith discontinue disposition of Registrable Securities until it has received copies of a supplemented or amended Prospectus correcting the Misstatement (it being understood that the Company hereby covenants to prepare and file such

supplement or amendment as soon as reasonably practicable after the time of such notice), or until it is advised in writing by the Company that the use of the Prospectus may be resumed.

3.4.2 Subject to Section 3.4.4, if the filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration

Statement in respect of any Registration at any time would (a) require the Company to make an Adverse Disclosure, (b) require the inclusion in such Registration Statement of financial statements that are unavailable to the Company for

reasons beyond the Company’s control, or (c) in the good faith judgment of the majority of the Board, be seriously detrimental to

the Company and the Chief Executive Officer of the Company and the majority of the Board conclude as a result that it is essential to defer such filing, initial effectiveness or continued use at

such time, the Company may, upon giving prompt written notice of such action to the Holder, delay the filing or initial effectiveness of, or suspend use of, such Registration Statement for the shortest period of time determined in good faith by the

Company to be necessary for such purpose. In the event the Company exercises its rights under this Section 3.4.2, the Holder agrees to suspend, immediately upon its receipt of the notice referred to above, its use of the

Prospectus relating to any Registration in connection with any sale or offer to sell Registrable Securities until the Holder receives written notice from the Company that such sales or offers of Registrable Securities may be resumed, and in each

case maintain the confidentiality of such notice and its contents.

3.4.3 Subject to Section 3.4.4, (a)

during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and eighty (180) days after the effective date of, a Company-initiated

Registration, and provided that the Company continues to actively employ, in good faith, all commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of the applicable Shelf Registration Statement, or (b) if, pursuant to

Section 2.1.4, the Holder has requested an Underwritten Shelf Takedown and the Company and the Holder are unable to obtain the commitment of underwriters to firmly underwrite such offering, the Company may, upon giving

prompt written notice of such action to the Holder, delay any other registered offering pursuant to Section 2.1.4.

3.4.4 The right to delay or suspend any filing, initial effectiveness or continued use of a Registration Statement pursuant to

Section 3.4.2 or a registered offering pursuant to Section 3.4.3 shall be exercised by the Company, in the aggregate, for not more than ninety (90) consecutive calendar days or more than one

hundred and twenty (120) total calendar days, in each case, during any twelve (12)-month period.

3.5 Reporting

Obligations. As long as the Holder shall own Registrable Securities, the Company, at all times while it shall be a reporting company under the Exchange Act, covenants to use commercially reasonable efforts to file timely (or obtain extensions in

respect thereof and file within the applicable grace period) all reports required to be filed by the Company after the date hereof pursuant to Sections 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act and to promptly furnish the Holder with true and complete

copies of all such filings; provided that any documents publicly filed or furnished with the Commission pursuant to the Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis and Retrieval System shall be deemed to have been furnished or delivered to the Holder

pursuant to this Section 3.5. The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as the Holder may reasonably request, to the extent required from time to time to enable the Holder to sell Common Stock

held by the Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act (or any successor rule then in effect). Upon the request of the Holder, the Company

shall deliver to the Holder a written certification of a duly authorized officer as to whether it has complied with such requirements.

ARTICLE IV

INDEMNIFICATION AND CONTRIBUTION

4.1 Indemnification.

4.1.1 The Company agrees to indemnify, to the extent permitted by Law, the Holder of Registrable Securities, its officers, directors

and agents and each Person that controls the Holder (within the meaning of the Securities Act), against all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented

out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable and documented outside attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement of

material fact contained in or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto filed pursuant to this Agreement or any omission or alleged omission of a

material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, except insofar as the same are caused by or contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing to the Company by the Holder

expressly for use therein. The Company shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers and directors and each Person that controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with

respect to the indemnification of the Holder.

4.1.2 In connection with any Registration Statement filed pursuant to this Agreement

in which the Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, the Holder shall furnish (or cause to be furnished) to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such

Registration Statement or Prospectus (the “Holder Information”) and shall indemnify the Company, its directors, officers and agents and each Person that controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against all

losses, claims, damages, liabilities and reasonable and documented out-of-pocket expenses (including, without limitation, reasonable outside attorneys’ fees)

resulting from any untrue or alleged untrue statement or omission of material fact contained or incorporated by reference in any Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any

omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement is contained in (or not contained in, in the case of an

omission) any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by or on behalf of the Holder expressly for use therein. The Holder of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each Person that controls

such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

4.1.3 Any Person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim

with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any Person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying

party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of

such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory

to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such

consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party that is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel for all parties indemnified by

such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No

indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying

party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement includes a statement or admission of fault and culpability on the part of such indemnified party or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by

the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4

The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling Person of such indemnified party and

shall survive the Transfer of securities. The Company and the Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agree to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the

event the Company’s or the Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5 If the indemnification

provided under Section 4.1 from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of

such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and out-of-pocket expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the

indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any

untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by (or not made by, in the case of an omission), or relates to information supplied by (or not supplied by in the case of an

omission), such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action; provided,

however, that the liability of the Holder under this Section 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by the Holder in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable

by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in Sections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or out-of-pocket expenses reasonably incurred by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable

if contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5 were determined by pro rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this

Section 4.1.5. No Person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this Section 4.1.5

from any Person that was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, Transfer shall not include the sale or transfer of Exchangeable VSE Shares to the Holder in connection with the exchange of its Initial

distributions to the current direct and indirect equityholders of Holder; or (iv) Transfers pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender offer, merger, exchange offer, stock sale, recapitalization, consolidation, other business combination,

Parent is not completed, any such Lock-Up Shares that are then subject to this Agreement shall remain subject to this Agreement; provided, however, that, in the case of any Transfer pursuant to

the foregoing clauses (i) and (iii), it shall be a condition to any such Transfer that (x) the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the restrictions set forth in the preceding

sentence) to the same extent as if the transferee were a party hereto; and (y) each party (transferor or transferee) shall not be required by law (including without limitation the disclosure requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities

Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations thereunder) to make, and shall not voluntarily make, any filing or public announcement of the Transfer prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up

Period.

2. Transfer Agent. Holder agrees that Parent and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to

(i) decline to effect any Transfer of the Lock-Up Shares if such Transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement and (ii) place legends and stop transfer instructions on the Initial

Shares with respect to the transfer restrictions applicable to such shares during the Lock-up Period. At any time after the Lock-up Period, such legend shall be removed

from the applicable Initial Shares upon the request of Holder if such shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or pursuant to a transaction that is registered

under the the Securities Act or otherwise exempt or not subject to the registration requirements of the Securities Act.

Additional Fees/Payment. Other than the consideration specifically referenced herein, the Parties agree that no fee, payment or additional consideration in any form has been or will be paid to Holder in connection with this Agreement.

SPA. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall be deemed to be one and the same agreement. A signed copy of this Agreement delivered by email or other means of

electronic transmission, including by DocuSign, shall be deemed to have the same legal effect as delivery of an original signed copy of this Agreement. This Agreement may only be amended or modified by written agreement executed by each of the

Exhibit 2.6

LOCK-UP AGREEMENT

THIS LOCK-UP AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), dated as of May 5, 2026, is made

and entered into by and between GenNx360 PAG Buyer, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Holder”), and VSE Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Parent”).

WHEREAS, in connection with, and as inducement to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by the Stock Purchase

Agreement, dated as of January 29, 2026 (the “SPA”), entered into by and among GenNx/PAG IntermediateCo Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Holder, Parent, VSE Mach Holdco Acquisition Corp., a

Delaware corporation and VSE Mach Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation, Holder has agreed to enter into this Agreement with respect to restrictions on transfer of the Earnout Shares (as defined in the SPA) during the Lock-up Period (as defined below). Capitalized terms used herein and not defined have the respective meanings ascribed thereto in the SPA.

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as

follows:

AGREEMENT

1. Lock-Up.

(a) Lock-Up. In connection with, and as a condition to, the issuance of any Earnout Shares

pursuant to Section 1.7 of the SPA, during the Lock-up Period, Holder agrees not to Transfer (as defined below), or otherwise publicly disclose its intention to Transfer the Earnout Shares subject to the Lock-up Period (such shares, the “Lock-Up Shares”). “Transfer” means to offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge or otherwise dispose of,

directly or indirectly, any of the Lock-Up Shares, enter into a transaction that would have the same effect, or enter into any swap, hedge or other arrangement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the

economic consequences of ownership of the Lock-Up Shares, whether any of these transactions are to be settled by delivery of any Lock-Up Shares or otherwise publicly

disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement, or engage in any short sales with respect to Lock-Up Shares.

(b) Lock-Up Period. “Lock-up Period”

means the period commencing on the date the Earnout Shares are issued to Holder pursuant to the SPA (such date, the “Earnout Payment Date”) and ending on (i) with respect to 50% of the Earnout Shares, the date that is three

months after the Earnout Payment Date and (ii) with respect to next 50% of the Earnout Shares, the date that is six months after the Earnout Payment Date.

the undersigned may Transfer any portion or all of their Lock-Up Shares at any time in connection with (i) Transfers to Holder’s direct or indirect affiliates (within the meaning of Rule 405 under

the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”)) or to the estates of any of the foregoing; (ii) Transfers to Parent or its Subsidiaries; and (iii) Transfers pursuant to a bona fide third-party tender

offer, merger, exchange offer, stock sale, recapitalization, consolidation, other business combination, acquisition of assets or similar transaction, or any other transaction involving a change in control of Parent; provided, however, that in the

event that such tender offer, merger, exchange offer, stock sale, recapitalization, consolidation, other business combination, acquisition of assets or similar transaction, or any other transaction involving a change in control of Parent is not

completed, the Lock-Up Shares subject to this Agreement shall

remain subject to this Agreement; provided, however, that, in the case of any Transfer pursuant to the foregoing clauses (i) and (iii), it shall be a condition to any such

Transfer that (x) the transferee agrees to be bound by the terms of this Agreement (including, without limitation, the restrictions set forth in the preceding sentence) to the same extent as if the transferee were a party hereto; and

(y) each party (transferor or transferee) shall not be required by law (including without limitation the disclosure requirements of the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) to make, and shall agree to not

voluntarily make, any filing or public announcement of the Transfer prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period.

2. Transfer Agent. Holder agrees that Parent and its transfer agent and registrar are hereby authorized to (i) decline to make any

Transfer of the Earnout Shares or any right to receive the Earnout Shares if such Transfer would constitute a violation or breach of this Agreement and (ii) place legends and stop transfer instructions on the Earnout Shares with respect to the

transfer restrictions applicable to such shares during the Lock-up Period. At any time after the Lock-up Period, such legend shall be removed from the applicable Earnout

Shares upon the request of Holder if such shares are eligible for sale under Rule 144 promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to the Securities Act or pursuant to a transaction that is otherwise exempt or not subject to the

registration requirements of the Securities Act or in a registered transaction.

3. No Additional Fees/Payment. Other than the

consideration specifically referenced herein, the Parties agree that no fee, payment or additional consideration in any form has been or will be paid to Holder in connection with this Agreement.

4. Miscellaneous. All notices and other communications under this Agreement will be in accordance with the notice provisions of the

parties. This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action that may be based upon, arise out of, or related to this Agreement or the negotiation, execution or performance of this Agreement will be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the

laws of the State of Delaware, in each case, without regards to any conflicts of law rules (whether the State of Delaware or any other jurisdiction) that would result in the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than those of the State

aggregate

amount outstanding at any time and it is expressed in terms of Dollars, all outstanding amounts originally incurred or spent in currencies other than Dollars shall be converted into Dollars on

with the Borrower) or, in the event no such service is selected, on such other basis as is reasonably satisfactory to the

applicable Administrative Agent (in consultation with the

Borrower)) as in effect on the date of any new incurrence or expenditures made under any provision of any such Section that regulates the Dollar amount outstanding at any time). Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) with respect to the

accounting for leases as either operating leases or capital leases and the impact of such accounting in accordance with FASB ASC 840 on the definitions and covenants herein, GAAP as in effect on the Closing Date shall be applied, (ii) with

of determining the permissibility of any action, change, transaction, or event that by the terms of the Loan Documents requires a calculation of any financial ratio or test or a component definition thereof (including Consolidated Total Assets,

Consolidated Total Debt, Consolidated Net Interest Expense, Consolidated EBITDA, Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio and/or Total Net Leverage Ratio), calculations with respect to such financial ratio, test or definition for such period shall be

made on a pro forma basis after giving pro forma effect to such transaction and any related pro forma calculations shall be made giving effect to any pro forma adjustments to be made in good faith by the Loan Parties. Further, if since the beginning

of any such period and on or prior to the date of any required calculation of any financial ratio or test or component definition thereof (x) any Specified Transaction has occurred or (y) any Person that subsequently became a Loan Party or

was merged, amalgamated or consolidated with or into the Borrower or any of its other Restricted Subsidiaries since the beginning of such period has consummated any Specified Transaction, then, in each case, any applicable financial ratio or test

shall be calculated on a pro forma basis for such period as if such Specified Transaction had occurred at the beginning of the applicable period.

Section 1.05 Time References. Unless otherwise indicated herein, all references to time of day refer to Eastern Standard Time or

Eastern daylight saving time, as in effect in New York City on

such day. For purposes of the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a later specified date, the word “from” means “from and including” and the words

“to” and “until” each means “to but excluding”; provided, however, that with respect to a computation of fees or interest payable to any Secured Party, such period shall in any event consist of at

least one full day.

Section 1.06 Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be satisfied in order for a specific action to be

permitted under this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component and rounding the result up or down to the nearest one one-hundredth.

obligation is stated to be due or performance required on a day which is not a Business Day, the date of such payment (other than as described in the definition of “Interest Period”) or performance shall extend to the immediately

succeeding Business Day and, in the case of any payment that accrues interest, interest thereon shall be payable for the period of such extension.

Transactions. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, solely in the case of the incurrence of any Indebtedness (including any Incremental Facility,

but other than Indebtedness under the Revolving Commitment, which shall remain subject to the terms and conditions thereof with respect to the impact, if any, of any Limited Condition Transaction) or Liens or the making of any Investments (other

than a Permitted Acquisition which shall remain subject to the terms and conditions thereof with respect to the impact, if any, of any Limited Condition Transaction), Restricted Payments, dispositions, consolidations, mergers or other fundamental

changes, in each case in connection with a Limited Condition Transaction:

In the event that the Borrower notifies each Administrative Agent in writing that any proposed transaction

is a Limited Condition Transaction and that the Borrower wishes to test the conditions to such Limited Condition Transaction and the Indebtedness that is to be used to finance such Limited Condition Transaction in accordance with this

Section 1.08, then the following provisions shall apply:

(a) for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this

Agreement which requires that no Default or Event of Default, as applicable, has occurred, is continuing or would result from any such action, as applicable, at the Borrower’s election, such condition shall be deemed satisfied, so long as

(x) no Event of Default exists on the date of execution of the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Transaction

(the

“LCT

Test

Date”)

and (y) no Specified Event of Default exists at the time of, and immediately after giving effect to, the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction, and

(b) for purposes of determining compliance with any provision of this Agreement which requires that any of the representations

and warranties made by any Loan Party set forth in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document be true and correct, such condition shall be deemed satisfied, so long as:

(i) the representations and warranties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material

respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier therein) as of the LCT Test dDate of execution (or with respect to any such representations or warranties

that specifically relate to any earlier date, as of such date) of the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Transaction,

(ii) customary specified acquisition agreement representations

and warranties with respect to the Person to be acquired are true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier therein), at the time of, and immediately

after giving effect to, the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (or with respect to any such representations or warranties that specifically relate to any earlier date, as of such

date), and

(iii) the Specified Representations (in each case, modified solely to the extent necessary to reflect the applicable terms of

such Limited Condition Transaction as set forth in the definitive agreement(s) governing such transaction) are true and correct in all material respects (without duplication of any materiality qualifier therein), at the time of, and immediately

after giving effect to, the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (or with respect to any such representations or warranties that specifically relate to any earlier date, as of such date), and neither the Borrower nor any other Loan

Party shall be required to bring down any other representation or warranty as a condition to the consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction (or the incurrence of any Indebtedness and any other ancillary transaction consummated in connection

with such Limited Condition Transaction);

, and

(iv)

any financial ratio test or condition to be tested in

connection with such Limited Condition Transaction and the availability of such Indebtedness will be tested as of the LCT Test Date, in each case, after giving effect to the relevant Limited Condition Transaction and related incurrence of

Indebtedness, on a pro forma basis where applicable, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (A) such ratios and baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Transaction and

(B) if any of such ratios are exceeded or conditions are not met following the LCT Test Date, but prior

to the closing of such Limited Condition Transaction, as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or amount (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries or the Person subject to such Limited

Condition Transaction), at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded and such conditions will not be deemed unmet as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of

determining whether the relevant transaction or action is permitted to be consummated or taken;

provided that if the Borrower has made such an election, then in connection with the calculation of

any ratio or basket with respect to the incurrence of any other Indebtedness (other than Indebtedness under the Revolving Commitment or any Incremental Facility, which shall remain subject to the terms and conditions thereof with respect to the

impact, if any, of any Limited Condition Transaction) or Liens, or the making of any other Investments, Restricted Payments, dispositions, consolidations, mergers or other fundamental changes pursuant to Section 7.02(c) on

or following such date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Transaction is consummated or the date of termination or expiration of the definitive agreement(s) for such Limited Condition Transaction, any such ratio or

basket shall be calculated on a pro forma basis (and after giving effect to any pro forma adjustments) assuming such Limited Condition Transaction has been consummated (and, in the case of Restricted Payments, assuming such Limited Condition

Transaction has not been consummated).

Section 1.09 Divisions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with

any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a

different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized and acquired on the

first date of its existence by the holders of its Equity Interests at such time.

Section 1.10 Rates. TheNeither Administrative Agent does not warrants or accepts responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to

(a) administration, construction, calculation, publication, continuation, discontinuation, movement, or regulation of, or any other matter related to, the ABR, the Benchmark, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including

any Benchmark Replacement), any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, including whether any Benchmark is similar to, or will produce the same value or economic equivalence of, any other rate or whether

financial instruments referencing or underlying the Benchmark will have the same volume or liquidity as those referencing or underlying any other rate, (b) the impact of any regulatory statements about, or actions taken with respect to any

Benchmark (or component thereof), (c) changes made by any administrator to the methodology used to calculate any Benchmark (or component thereof) or (d) the effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes.

The applicable Administrative Agent and its affiliates or

other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of the ABR, the Benchmark, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a

manner adverse to the Borrower.

TheNeither

Administrative Agent does not warrants or accepts responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to,

such transactions. The applicable Administrative Agent may

select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain the ABR, the Benchmark, or any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement), in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement,

and shall have no liability to the Borrower, 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.

subject to the provisions set forth in Article VI (other than Section 6.01(y)), VII (other than Section 7.01(c)(i)), VIII or IX and the results of operations and Indebtedness of Unrestricted Subsidiaries will not be taken into account for

purposes of determining compliance with any financial ratio, including but not limited to, First Lien Net Leverage Ratio, Total Net Leverage Ratio and the Consolidated Interest Coverage Ratio Coverage Ratio.

Section 1.12 Certain Calculations and Tests. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein,

(a) With respect to any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this

Agreement that does not require compliance with a financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, Section 8.01, the Financial Covenants, any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test and/or any Total Net Leverage Ratio

test) (any such amounts, the “Fixed Amounts”) substantially concurrently with any amounts incurred or transactions entered into (or consummated) in reliance on a provision of this Agreement that requires compliance with a

financial ratio or test (including, without limitation, Section 8.01, the Financial Covenants, any First Lien Net Leverage Ratio test and/or any Total Net Leverage Ratio test) (any such amounts, the

“Incurrence-Based Amounts”), it is understood and agreed that the Fixed Amounts shall be disregarded in the calculation of the financial ratio or test applicable to the Incurrence-Based Amounts;

(b) If the Borrower or any Restricted Subsidiary relies in full or in part on a Fixed Amounts basket or exception in connection

with any proposed transaction, all or any portion of which transaction subsequently is eligible to be reclassified as having been incurred pursuant to an Incurrence-Based Amounts basket or exception, then such amounts originally permitted under the

Fixed Amounts basket or exception shall automatically be reclassified as having been incurred

pursuant to a Incurrence-Based Amounts basket or exception to the maximum extent then permitted under such ratio-based basket or exception without the Borrower needing to make any election, give

any notice or take any action to effect such reclassification; and

incurs Indebtedness under an Incurrence-Based Amounts basket, such an Incurrence-Based Amounts basket (together with any other ratio-based basket utilized in connection therewith, including in respect of other Indebtedness, Liens, asset sales or

other dispositions, Investments or Restricted Payments) will be calculated excluding the cash proceeds of such Indebtedness for netting purposes (i.e., such cash proceeds shall not reduce Consolidated Total Debt pursuant to the definition of

such term).

ARTICLE II

THE LOANS

Section 2.01 Commitments and Incremental Facilities.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions and relying upon the representations and warranties herein set forth:

(i) each Revolving Lender severally agrees to make Revolving Loans in Dollars to the Borrower at any time and from time to time during the

term of this Agreement or until the earlier reduction of its Revolving Commitment to zero in accordance with the terms hereof, in an aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans made by such Lender at any time outstanding not exceeding the amount

of such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment. The Borrower may borrow, repay and reborrow, the applicable Revolving Loans on or after the Closing Date and prior to the Final Maturity Date, subject to the terms, provisions and

limitations set forth herein; provided (A) the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Loans outstanding at any time to the Borrower shall not exceed the aggregate Revolving Commitments and (B) the Revolving Commitment of each Lender shall

automatically and permanently be reduced to zero on the Final Maturity Date;

(ii) [Reserved]; and

(iii) each

(A) Initial Term Loan Lender severally agrees to make the

Initial Term Loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date, in an amount set forth opposite such Initial Term Loan Lender’s name in Schedule

1.01(A) and

(B) Term Loan B Lender severally agrees to make the Term B Loan to the Borrower on the First Amendment

Effective Date, in an amount set forth opposite such Term Loan B Lender’s

name in Schedule 1.01(A). Any principal amount of the Initial Term Loans

or Term B Loans which is repaid or prepaid may not be

reborrowed.

It is understood and agreed that the Term B Loan made on the First Amendment Effective Date shall repay in

full and replace the Initial Term Loans made to the Borrower on the Closing Date, and from and after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Initial Term Loans shall be deemed repaid and no longer outstanding; provided that, notwithstanding such

repayment, the references to “Initial Term

Loan”,

“Initial

Term Loan Commitment”,

“Initial

Term Loan

Exposure” and

“Initial

Term Loan

Lender”

(and any related terms) appearing in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are retained solely for

drafting convenience and shall have no further force or effect.

(b)

Swingline Loans.

(i) On the terms and subject to the conditions contained herein, as part of the Revolving Commitment, the

Swingline Lender agrees to make advances to the Borrower from time to time

during the period from the Closing Date through the Final Maturity Date (each such advance, a “Swingline Loan”) requested by the Borrower; provided that the Swingline Loan

Outstandings shall at no time exceed the Swingline Loan Limit. If at any time the Swingline Loan Outstandings exceed the Swingline Loan Limit, then, on the next succeeding Business Day, the Borrower shall repay Swingline Loans in an aggregate amount

equal to such excess. Each Swingline Loan shall be an ABR Loan, and shall be advanced by Swingline Lender in the same manner as Revolving Loans are advanced hereunder; provided that the Borrower may deliver the Notice of Borrowing with respect to

any Swingline Loan to the Revolver Administrative Agent and

Swingline Lender not later than 2:00 p.m. on the requested borrowing date (which shall be a Business Day). Swingline Lender shall give

the Revolver Administrative Agent prompt notice of each

Swingline Loan advanced by Swingline Lender. In the event that on any Business Day Swingline Lender desires that all or any portion of the outstanding Swingline Loans should be reduced, in whole or in part, Swingline Lender shall notify the Revolver Administrative Agent to that effect and indicate the

portion of the Swingline Loan to be so reduced (it being agreed that the Swingline Lender shall issue a notice requiring outstanding Swingline Loans to be reduced to $0 on a not less than weekly basis). The Revolver Administrative Agent agrees to transmit to Revolving Lenders

the information contained in each notice received by the Revolver Administrative Agent from Swingline Lender regarding the reduction of outstanding Swingline Loans and shall concurrently notify such Lenders of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the obligation to make a

Revolving Loan to repay outstanding Swingline Loans (or the applicable portion thereof);

(ii) Each of the Revolving Lenders

hereby unconditionally and irrevocably agrees to pay to the Revolver

Administrative Agent, for the benefit of Swingline Lender, not later than noon on the Business Day immediately following the Business Day of such Lender’s receipt of such notice from the

Revolver Administrative Agent (provided that if any

Revolving Lender shall receive such notice at or prior to 10:00 a.m. on a Business Day, such funding shall be made by such Lender on such Business Day), such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of a Revolving Loan (which Revolving Loan shall be an ABR

Loan and shall be deemed to be requested by Borrower) in the principal amount of such portion of the Swingline Loan which is required to be paid to Swingline Lender under this Section 2.01(b) (regardless of whether the

conditions precedent thereto set forth in Section 5.02 are then satisfied, including without limitation, the existence of any Default or Event of Default either before or after giving effect to the making of such Swingline

Loan, but subject to the other provisions of this Section 2.01(b)). The proceeds of any such Revolving Loans shall be immediately paid over to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the benefit of Swingline Lender for

application against then outstanding Swingline Loans. For purposes of this clause (ii), Swingline Lender shall be conclusively entitled to assume that, at the time of the advance of any Swingline Loan, each Revolving Lender will fund its Pro

Rata Share of the Revolving Loans provided for in this clause (ii);

(iii) In the event that, at any time any Swingline

Loans are outstanding, an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, then, each of the Revolving Lenders shall be deemed to have irrevocably and immediately purchased and received from Swingline Lender, without recourse or warranty, an

undivided interest and participation in the Swingline Loan in an amount equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of Revolving Commitment multiplied by the total amount of the Swingline Loan Outstandings. Any purchase obligation arising pursuant

to the immediately preceding sentence shall be absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstances whatsoever. In the event that on any Business Day Swingline Lender desires to effect settlement of any such purchase, Swingline

Lender shall promptly notify the Revolver Administrative Agent to

that effect and indicate the payment amounts required by each Lender to effect such settlement. The Revolver

Administrative Agent agrees to transmit to Revolving Lenders the information contained in each notice received by the

Revolver Administrative Agent from Swingline Lender and

shall concurrently notify such Lenders of each such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of the required payment settlement amount. Each such Lender shall effect such settlement upon receipt of any such notice by paying to the Revolver Administrative Agent not later than noon on the

Business Day immediately following the Business Day of receipt of such notice (provided that, if any such Lender shall receive such notice at or prior to 10:00 a.m. on a Business Day, such

funding shall be made by such Lender on such Business Day), an amount equal to such Lender’s participation in the Swingline Loan.

(iv) In the event any Revolving Lender fails to make available to Swingline Lender when due the amount of such Lender’s participation

in the Swingline Loans, Swingline Lender shall be entitled to recover such amount on demand from such Lender together with interest at ABR plus the Applicable Margin in respect of ABR Revolving Loans. Any Lender’s failure to make any payment

requested under this Section 2.01(b) shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligations hereunder, but no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make available to Swingline Lender such other

Lender’s required payment hereunder. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 2.01(b) shall be deemed to be binding upon the

Revolver Administrative Agent, Swingline Lender and Lenders

notwithstanding the occurrence of any Default or Event of Default, or any insolvency or bankruptcy proceeding pertaining to Borrower or any other Loan Party.

(i) Requests. The Borrower may, from time to time by written notice to the applicable Administrative Agent (each, an “Incremental Facility

Request”), request (A) one or more new tranches of Term Loans or customary term “A

” loans

(the “Incremental Term Loan Commitment” and the term loans thereunder, each an “Incremental Term Loans”) and (B) one or more increases in the Revolving

Commitments (the “Incremental Revolving Commitments” and the revolving loans thereunder, each an “Incremental Revolving Loan”); the Incremental Term Loan and the Incremental Revolving Loans are sometimes

referred to herein individually as an “Incremental Loan” and, collectively, as the “Incremental Loans”; the Incremental Term Loan Commitment and the Incremental Revolving Commitment is sometimes referred to

herein individually as an “Incremental Facility” and collectively as the “Incremental Facilities”) in an aggregate principal amount not to

exceed the, from and

after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Incremental Cap; provided that no commitment of any Lender shall be increased without the prior written consent of such Lender. Such

Incremental Facility Request shall set forth (A) the amount of the Incremental Loans being requested (which shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 and multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof), (B) the date (an “Incremental

Closing Date”) on which such Incremental Facility is requested to become effective (which, unless otherwise agreed by the

applicable Administrative Agent, shall not be less than ten

(10) Business Days nor more than sixty (60) days after the date of such notice and which may be extended by the Borrower with the consent of

the applicable Administrative Agent), and (C) whether

the related Incremental Loan is to be a SOFR Loan or an ABR Loan (and, if a SOFR Loan, the Interest Period therefor).

(ii)

Allocations. Upon delivery of the Incremental Facility Request, the Borrower may offer such Incremental Facility to the existing Revolving Lenders (with respect to Incremental Revolving Commitments) and existing Term Lenders (with respect to

Incremental Term Loan Commitments) or to new lenders designated by the Borrower and, with respect to any Incremental

Revolving Commitments, consented to by the applicable

Administrative Agent, but only to the extent the consent of the

applicable Administrative Agent would be required under

Section 12.07(b) and, in any event, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned; provided that, (A) none of the Lenders will be required to provide all or any portion of such

Incremental Facility, (B) any decision whether or not to so provide all or any portion of such Incremental Facility by any Lender shall be made at the sole discretion of such Lender and (C) the allocation of any such Incremental Facility

among the accepting Lenders shall be determined by the applicable Administrative Agent (in consultation with the Borrower).

(iii) Conditions. No Incremental Facility shall become effective under this

Section 2.01(c) unless (A) immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such Incremental Facility, the loans to be made thereunder and the application of the proceeds therefrom on a pro forma basis,

(I) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred or be continuing (provided that if the proceeds of the applicable Incremental Facility are to be used to finance a Limited Conditions Transaction, then the condition precedent

set forth in this clause (I) may be limited to Specified Events of Default), (II) the representations and warranties of the Loan Parties set forth in the Loan Documents would be true and correct in all material respects (or, in the case of

representations and warranties qualified as to materiality, in all respects) on and as of the date of, and immediately after giving effect to, the effectiveness of the applicable Incremental Facility Amendment, except in the case of any such

representation and warranty that expressly relates to a prior date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all material respects (or in all respects, as applicable) as of such earlier date (provided that if the

proceeds of the applicable Incremental Facility are to be used to finance a Limited Conditions Transaction, then the condition precedent set forth in this clause (II) may be limited to (x) Specified Representations and (y) customary

specified acquisition agreement representations and warranties with respect to the Person to be acquired) and (III) the Borrower will be in compliance with the Financial Covenants set forth in Section 8.01, (x) based

on the financial statements most recently delivered pursuant to Section 7.01(a), (y) without netting the cash proceeds thereof from Consolidated Total Debt and (z) assuming all amounts thereunder are fully drawn,

(B) all fees and expenses owing in respect of such Incremental Facility to the applicable Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall have been paid and (C) the

applicable Administrative Agent shall have received a

certificate of an Authorized Officer of the Borrower certifying as to the foregoing and attaching reasonably detailed supporting calculations related thereto, in form reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Administrative Agent; provided that, with respect to

any Incremental Facility incurred to finance a Limited Condition Transaction, at the Borrower’s election, the conditions in the foregoingthis clauses (A),

(B) and (CIII) shall be subject to Section 1.08.

(iv) Terms. Except with respect to Permitted Short Term Debt, the final

maturity date of any Incremental Term Loan shall be no earlier than the maturity date of the Initial Term

B Loans and the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any such Incremental

Term Loan shall not be shorter than the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Initial Term LoanB Loans (other than with respect

to Incremental Term Loans in the form of a customary term loan “A”

facility provided by one or more banks, which shall have a maturity date no earlier than the maturity date of the Term B Loan and a Weighted Average Life to Maturity

not shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term B Loan). If the initial All-In Yield applicable to any Incremental Term Loan

that is incurred on or prior to the six-month anniversary of the Closing Date that is secured by a lien on the Collateral that ranks pari passu with the liens securing the Term B Loan exceeds the corresponding

All-In Yield applicable to the Term B Loan then outstanding by more than 50 basis points per annum (each, an “Existing Facility”), then the Applicable Margin with respect to each such Existing Facility shall automatically be

increased to a level such that the All-In Yield applicable to such outstanding Term

B Loan is 50 basis point per annum below the All-In Yield applicable to such Incremental Term Loan, effective upon the making of such Incremental Term Loan (the “MFN Provision”).. Each Incremental Facility to the extent secured, shall be secured

only by a Lien on the Collateral (or a portion thereof) ranking equal in priority with the Lien securing the Obligations, or shall constitute Subordinated

DebtIndebtedness

, and shall only be guaranteed by the Guarantors (or a subset thereof); provided that any Incremental Facility may be secured by assets other than the Collateral or guaranteed by a person other than the

Guarantors, so long as such assets are contemporaneously included as Collateral and such person contemporaneously becomes a Guarantor under the Existing Facility. In the case of an Incremental Revolving Commitment, such Incremental Revolving

Commitment shall be on the same terms and pursuant to the same documentation applicable to the Revolving Commitments (including interest rate and unused fees but excluding customary arrangement, commitment, structuring and underwriting fees, and

amendment fees not generally shared with other Lenders with respect to such Incremental Revolving Loans). The other terms and documentation in respect

thereof, to the extent not consistent with the Loan Documents, shall not be materially more favorable to the Lenders hereof (taken as a whole) than the terms under the Loans are to the Lenders

under the Loans (as determined by the Borrower in good faith) unless (a) offered to the Lenders for inclusion in the Loan Documents, (b) otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the applicable Administrative Agent or (c) they only apply after the

maturity date for the applicable existing Loans. Except with respect to amortization, pricing, interest rate margins, discounts, premiums, rate floors and final maturity as set forth in this clause (iv), any Incremental Term Loan shall

be on terms consistent with the Initial Term B Loans.

(v) Required Amendments. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility, this

Agreement shall be amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence of such Incremental Facility and the Loans evidenced thereby, and any joinder agreement signed by a new lender or other incremental amendment (any

such joinder agreement and/or incremental amendment, an “Incremental Amendment”) may without the consent of the other Lenders effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or

appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the applicable

Administrative Agent and the Borrower, to effectuate the provisions of this Section 2.01(c) (including any amendments that are not adverse to the interests of any Lender

that are made to effectuate changes necessary to enable any Incremental Term Loans (A) that are intended

be of the same

Class as

customary term

“A

” loans

to be of the same Class as such term “A

” loans

or (B) that are intended to be of the same Class as the initial Term B Loans made on the ClosingFirst Amendment Effective Date to be of the same Class as

such initial Term

B Loans, which

in each case shall include any amendments to

Section 2.03(b) that do not reduce the ratable amortization received by each Lender thereunder (including to evidence any amortization “holiday” for such Incremental Term Loans (but not for any Existing

Facility))), and, for the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.01(c) shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.02. From and after each Incremental Closing Date, the Loans and Commitments

established pursuant to this Section 2.01(c) shall constitute Loans and Commitments under, and shall be entitled to all the benefits afforded by, this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and shall, without limiting the

foregoing, benefit equally and ratably from the guarantees and security interests created by the applicable Loan Documents. Subject to the last paragraph of Section 5.01(b), the Loan Parties shall take any actions

reasonably required by the Collateral Agent to ensure and/or demonstrate that the Liens and security interests granted by the applicable Loan Documents continue to be perfected under the UCC or otherwise after giving effect to the establishment of

any such new Loans and Commitments. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that the applicable Administrative Agent may, in consultation with the Borrower, take any and all action as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, (A) upon the effectiveness of each Incremental Revolving Commitment,

(I) Revolving Loans made under such Incremental Revolving Commitment are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Revolving Loans on a pro rata basis and (II) the Lender providing each Incremental Revolving Commitment shares ratably in

the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding Revolving Loans, Swing Loans and Letter of Credit Loans (B) upon the effectiveness of Incremental Term Loans which are not separate Classes when originally made, (I) such Incremental Term

Loans are included in each Borrowing of outstanding Term B

Loans on a pro rata basis and (II) any amortization payments required to be made under Section 2.03(b) after the making of such Incremental Term Loans to be ratably

increased by the aggregate principal amount of such Incremental Term Loans for all Lenders on a pro rata basis to the extent necessary to avoid any reduction in the amortization payments to which the existing Term Lenders were entitled before such

recalculation.

(d) Refinancing Amendments.

(i) After the Closing Date, Borrower may obtain by written notice to

the applicable Administrative Agent, from any Lender or any

Additional Lender, Refinancing Amendment Debt in respect of all or any portion of the Term Loans or Revolving Loans then outstanding under this Agreement in each case pursuant to a Refinancing Amendment. Any Other Loans may participate on a pro rata

basis or on a less than pro rata basis (but not on a greater than pro rata basis) in any voluntary or

mandatory prepayments hereunder, as specified in the applicable Refinancing Amendment. Such notice shall set forth (x) the amount of the applicable Refinancing Amendment Debt,

(y) the date on which the applicable Refinancing Amendment Debt is to become effective and (z) whether such Refinancing Amendment Debt will be made pursuant to Other Revolving Loan Commitments and/or Other Term Loan

Commitments.

(ii) Borrowers may seek Refinancing Amendment Debt from existing Lenders or any Additional Lender. The effectiveness of any

Refinancing Amendment shall be subject to the satisfaction (or waiver by the Lenders providing the Refinancing Amendment) on the date thereof of each of the conditions set forth in Section 5.02 and, to the extent reasonably

requested by the applicable Administrative Agent, receipt by

the applicable Administrative Agent of customary legal

opinions, board resolutions, officers’ certificates and/or reaffirmation agreements consistent with those delivered on the Closing Date under Section 5.01 (other than changes to such legal opinions resulting from a

change in law, change in fact or change to counsel’s form of opinion reasonably satisfactory to the

applicable Administrative Agent).

(iii) Each incurrence of Refinancing

Amendment Debt under this Section 2.01(d) shall be in an aggregate principal amount of not less than $5,000,000.

The applicable Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each

Lender as to the effectiveness of each Refinancing Amendment. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Refinancing Amendment, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary

to reflect the existence and terms of the Refinancing Amendment Debt incurred pursuant thereto (including any amendments necessary to treat the Loans and Commitments subject thereto as Other Loans and/or Other Commitments). Any Refinancing Amendment

may, without the consent of any other Lenders, effect such amendments to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as may be necessary or appropriate, in the reasonable opinion of the applicable Administrative Agent and Borrower, to effect the

provisions of this Section 2.01(d). For the avoidance of doubt, this Section 2.01(d) shall supersede any provisions in Section 12.02 (other than

Section 12.02(c)).

(iv) It is understood that (x) any Lender approached to provide

all or a portion of Refinancing Amendment Debt may elect or decline, in its sole discretion, to provide such Refinancing Amendment Debt (it being understood that there is no obligation to approach any existing Lenders to provide any Other

Commitment), (y) the applicable Administrative Agent’s

consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, conditioned, delayed or denied) and, with respect to any Other Revolving Loan Commitment, the consent of the Issuing Bank and the Swingline Lender shall be required with respect to any

Person’s providing such Refinancing Amendment Debt if such consent would be required under Section 12.07 for an assignment of Loans or Commitments to such Person.

(v) There shall not be more than one (1) Class of Revolving Commitments outstanding under this Agreement at any time. Upon

the effectiveness of any Other Revolving Loan Commitments pursuant to this Section 2.01(d), each Revolving Lender with a Revolving Loan Commitment immediately prior to such effectiveness will automatically and without further act be

deemed to have assigned to each Additional Lender with such an Other Revolving Loan Commitment, and each such Additional Lender will automatically and without further act be deemed to have assumed, a portion of such existing Revolving Lender’s

participations hereunder in outstanding Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans such that, after giving effect to each such deemed assignment and assumption of participations and any other adjustments that the applicable Administrative Agent may deem necessary, the percentage

of the aggregate outstanding participations hereunder in Letters of Credit and Swingline Loans held by each Revolving Lender (including each such Additional Lender) will equal its Pro Rata Share of the Revolving Commitment.

Section 2.02 Making the Loans.

(a) The Borrower shall give the

applicable Administrative Agent prior telephonic notice (promptly

confirmed in writing, in substantially the form of Exhibit C hereto (a “Notice of Borrowing”)), not later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) (i) in the case of any ABR Loan, on the date of the

proposed Borrowing and (ii) in the case of any SOFR Loan (x) following the Closing Date, three (3) Government Securities Business Days prior to the date of the proposed Loan (or such shorter period as the applicable Administrative Agent is willing to accommodate from time to

time, but in no event later than 12:00 noon (New York City time) on the borrowing date of the proposed Loan) or (y) with respect to the Loans to be made on the Closing Date, one Business Day prior to the Closing Date. Such Notice of Borrowing

shall specify (i) the principal amount of the proposed Loan, (ii) [reserved], (iii) whether the Loan is requested to be an ABR Loan or a SOFR Loan and, in the case of a SOFR Loan, the initial Interest Period with respect thereto (which

shall be a period contemplated by the definition of “Interest Period”), and (iv) the proposed borrowing date, which must be a Business Day (which Borrowing may be conditioned upon the consummation of a subject transaction to the

extent such condition is expressly set forth in the Notice of Borrowing or may be delayed to a later date) and, with respect to the Initial Term B Loan, must be

the ClosingFirst

Amendment Effective Date. All Loans to be made on the ClosingFirst Amendment Effective Date shall be SOFR Loans under this

Section and Borrower shall provide an indemnity letter, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to theeach Administrative Agent and Borrower, indemnifying the Lenders in

respect of such Loans for any Funding Losses. If no Interest Period is specified with respect to any requested SOFR Loan, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected an Interest Period of one (1) month’s duration. TheEach applicable Administrative Agent and the Lenders may act without liability upon the basis of written, telecopied or telephonic notice believed by

theeach Administrative Agent in good faith to be from the Borrower (or from any Authorized Officer thereof designated in writing purportedly from the Borrower to thesuch Administrative Agent). Borrower hereby waives the right to dispute thesuch Administrative Agent’s record of the terms of any such

telephonic Notice of Borrowing.

TheEach Administrative Agent and each Lender shall be entitled to rely conclusively on any Authorized Officer’s authority to request a Loan on behalf of the Borrower until thesuch Administrative Agent receives written notice to the contrary. TheNeither the Administrative Agents and nor the Lenders shall have noany duty to verify the authenticity of the signature appearing on any written Notice of Borrowing.

(b) Each Notice of Borrowing pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be irrevocable and the Borrower shall be bound to

make a borrowing in accordance therewith; provided that such borrowing may be conditioned upon the consummation of a subject transaction to the extent such condition is expressly set forth in the Notice of Borrowing or may be delayed to a later

date. At the commencement of each Interest Period for any Borrowing of Revolving Loans that are SOFR Loans, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than $1,000,000. At the time that each

ABR Revolving Borrowing is made, such Borrowing shall be in an aggregate amount that is an integral multiple of $50,000 and not less than $1,000,000; provided that a Revolving Borrowing may be in an aggregate amount that is equal to the entire

unused balance of the aggregate Revolving Commitments of the relevant Class, or that is required to finance the reimbursement of an LC Disbursement as contemplated by Section 3.05.

Lenders simultaneously and proportionately to their Pro Rata Shares of the aggregate Initial Term Loan Commitment, the

aggregate Term Loan B Commitment or the aggregate Revolving Commitment, as applicable, it being understood that no Lender shall be responsible for any default by any other Lender in that other

Lender’s obligations to make a Loan requested hereunder, nor shall the Commitment of any Lender be increased or decreased as a result of the default by any other Lender in that other Lender’s obligation to make a Loan requested

hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make the Loans required to be made by it by the terms of this Agreement regardless of the failure by any

other Lender. 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; provided that any exercise of such option

shall not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Each Lender shall make each Loan to be made by it hereunder on the proposed date thereof by wire transfer of immediately available

funds by 2:00 p.m. (New York City time) to the account of the applicable Administrative Agent most recently designated by it for such purposes by notice to the Lenders. The

applicable Administrative Agent will make such Loans

available to the Borrower by promptly remitting the amounts so received, in like funds, to an account of the Borrower specified in the Notice of Borrowing.

(ii) Unless the

applicable Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a

Lender prior to the proposed date of the making of any Loan that such Lender will not make available to thesuch Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Loan,

thesuch Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with clause (c)(i) of this Section 2.02 and may, in reliance on such

assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Loan available to the

applicable Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender

and the Borrower severally agree to pay to

thesuch 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 the Borrower to but excluding the date of

payment to

thesuch Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by thesuch Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to such Loans hereunder. If

the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the applicable Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, thesuch Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the

amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays such amount to the applicable

Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s portion of such Loan. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against

a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the applicable Administrative Agent.

Section 2.03 Repayment

of Loans; Evidence of Debt(i) .

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then

unpaid principal amount of each Revolving Loan on the Final Maturity Date or, if earlier, on the date on which they are declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the

AdministrativeTerm Loan

B Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan of such Lender in accordance with the provisions of this paragraph. The Term Loans shall be repayable in

consecutive quarterly installments, each of which shall be in an amount equal to, with respect to the Term B

Loan, (i) the original principal amount of the Initial

Term B Loans on the

ClosingFirst Amendment

(commencing with the first full fiscal quarter after the First Amendment Effective Date) and ending on the Final Maturity Date. The remaining outstanding unpaid principal amount of each Term Loan, and all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, shall be due and payable on the earliest of (i) the

Final Maturity Date and (ii) the date on which such Term Loan is declared due and payable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Scheduled installments for an Incremental Term Loan shall be as specified in the applicable Incremental

Amendment.

the event of any conflict between the entries made in the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(c) and the accounts maintained pursuant to Section 2.03(d), the accounts maintained pursuant

to Section 2.03(d) shall govern and control.

(f) Any Lender may request that Term Loans made by it be

evidenced by a Term Note. In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Term Note payable to such Lender (and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Term Loans evidenced by such Term Note and interest thereon shall at all

times (including after assignment pursuant to Section 12.07) be represented by one or more notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (and its registered assigns); provided that the Borrower shall not be

obligated to deliver a new Term Note unless and until it receives its original Term Note back or a lost note affidavit and customary indemnity reasonably acceptable to such Borrower.

(g) Any Lender may request that Revolving Loans made by it be evidenced by a Revolving Note.

In such event, the Borrower shall execute and deliver to such Lender a Revolving Note payable to such Lender (and its registered assigns). Thereafter, the Revolving Loans evidenced by such Revolving Note and interest thereon shall at all times

(including after assignment pursuant to Section 12.07) be represented by one or more Revolving Notes in such form payable to the payee named therein (and its registered assigns); provided that the Borrower shall not be

any overdue principal, interest or other overdue amounts shall bear interest, after as well as before judgment, at a rate per annum equal to (i) in the case of overdue principal of any Loan, 2% per annum plus the rate otherwise applicable to

such Loan as provided in the preceding clauses of this Section 2.04 or (ii) in the case of any other amount, 2% per annum plus the rate applicable to ABR Loans.

(d) Interest Payment. Interest on each Loan shall be payable (i) in arrears, on each Interest Payment Date and (ii) at

maturity (whether upon demand, by acceleration or otherwise). Interest accrued pursuant to clause (c) of this Section 2.04 shall be payable on demand. In the event of any repayment or prepayment of

any Loan, accrued interest on the principal amount repaid or prepaid shall be payable on the date of such repayment or prepayment. In the event of any conversion of a SOFR Loan prior to the end of the current Interest Period therefor, accrued

interest on such Loan shall be payable on the date of such conversion.

(e) General. All interest hereunder shall be computed on

the basis of a year of 360 days, except that interest computed by reference to ABR at times when ABR 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), and in each case shall be payable for

the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). The applicable ABR or Term SOFR shall be determined by the

applicable Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be

conclusive absent manifest error.

(f) Interest Election.

(i) Each Borrowing initially shall be of the Type specified in the Notice of Borrowing and,

in the case of a SOFR Borrowing, shall have an initial Interest Period as specified in such Notice of Borrowing. Thereafter, the Borrower may elect to convert such Borrowing to a different Type or to continue such Borrowing and, in the case of a

SOFR Borrowing, may elect Interest Periods therefor, all as provided in this Section 2.04(f). The Borrower 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. After giving effect to all Borrowings, all conversions of Loans

from one Type to the other, and all continuations of Loans as the same Type, there shall not be more than eight (8) Interest Periods in effect at any time for all SOFR Borrowings.

(ii) To make an election pursuant to this Section 2.04(f), the Borrower shall notify the applicable Administrative Agent of such election by the time that a

Notice of Borrowing would be required under Section 2.02 if the Borrower was 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 an Authorized Officer of the Borrower.

(iii) Each Interest Election Request

shall specify the following information in compliance with Section 2.01 and Section 2.02:

(A) the principal amount of 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 (C) and (D) below shall be specified for each resulting

Borrowing);

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

(D) if the resulting Borrowing is a SOFR Borrowing, the Interest Period to be applicable thereto after giving effect to such election, which

shall be a period contemplated by the definition of the term “Interest Period”. If any such Interest Election Request requests a SOFR Borrowing but does not specify an Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have selected

an Interest Period of one month’s duration.

(iv) Promptly following receipt of an Interest Election Request, the applicable Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details

thereof and of such Lender’s portion of each resulting Borrowing.

(v) If the Borrower fail to deliver a timely Interest

Election Request with respect to a SOFR 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 deemed to have an

Interest Period that is the same as the immediately preceding Interest Period. Notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the applicable Administrative Agent, at the request of the Required Lenders,

so notifies the Borrower, then, so long as an Event of Default is continuing (i) no outstanding Borrowing may be converted to or continued as a SOFR Borrowing and (ii) unless repaid, each SOFR Borrowing shall be converted to an ABR

Borrowing at the end of the Interest Period applicable thereto.

Section 2.05 Reduction of Commitment; Prepayment of Loans.

(a) Reduction of Commitments.

(i) Revolving Commitments. The Revolving Commitments shall terminate on the Final Maturity Date. The Borrower may reduce the Revolving

Commitments to an amount (which may be zero) not less than the sum of (A) the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Revolving Loans then outstanding, (B) the aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans not yet made as to which a

Notice of Borrowing has been given by the Borrower under Section 2.02, (C) the LC Exposure at such time and (D) the stated amount of all Letters of Credit not yet issued as to which a request has been made and not

withdrawn. Each such reduction shall be (1) in a minimum amount of $1,000,000 (or by the full amount of the Revolving Commitments in effect immediately prior to such reduction if such amount at that time is less than $1,000,000), (2) in an

amount which is an integral multiple of $100,000 (or by the full amount of the Revolving Commitments in effect immediately prior to such reduction if such amount results in an integral multiple of less than $100,000), (2) made by providing not less

than three (3) Business Days’ (or such shorter period as is acceptable to the Revolver Administrative Agent) prior written notice to the Revolver Administrative Agent and (3) irrevocable: provided that such notice may provide that it is conditioned upon the consummation of other financing or the consummation of other Specified Transactions, in

which case, such notice may be revoked or extended by the Borrower if any such condition is not satisfied prior to the date of termination of the commitment specified in such notice. Once reduced, the Revolving Commitments may not be increased

(other than in connection with an Incremental Revolving Commitment). Each such reduction of the Revolving Commitments shall reduce the Revolving Commitment of each Lender proportionately in accordance with its Pro Rata Share thereof.

Prepayments

of the Term B Loans

ended Test Period for the applicable Fiscal Year (and such payment shall only be required in the amount of

such excess), and

each such prepayment of the Term B Loans pursuant to this clause (iv) shall be applied against the first four (4) scheduled installments of principal of

the Term B Loans in direct order of maturity of remaining

amortization payments and next to the remaining principal repayment installments thereof on a pro rata

basis.

(v) Without any reduction in the Revolving Commitment, the Borrower will immediately prepay the Revolving Loans at any time when the

aggregate principal amount of all Revolving Loans plus the outstanding amount of all LC Exposure exceeds any of the limits set forth in Section 2.01(a)(i) to the full extent of such excess.

(vi) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to Net Cash Proceeds received by any Loan Party or any of its Restricted

Subsidiaries in connection with a Disposition or the receipt of Extraordinary Receipts that are required to be used to prepay the Obligations pursuant to Section 2.05(c)(ii), such Net Cash Proceeds from all such

Dispositions and Extraordinary Receipts shall not be required to be so used to prepay the Obligations to the extent that such Net Cash Proceeds are reinvested in assets used or useful in such Person’s business, provided that,

(A) no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing on the date such Person receives such Net Cash Proceeds, and

(B) upon the earliest of (1) the date on which the Borrower determines that it does not intend to reinvest all or any portion of such

Net Cash Proceeds, (2) 365 days after receipt of such Non Cash Proceeds (or, if a binding agreement relating to such reinvestment has been executed within such 365 day period but such reinvestment has not closed, an additional 180 days following

such 365 day period) and (3) the occurrence of a Specified Event of Default, such Net Cash Proceeds, if not theretofore so used, shall be used to prepay the Obligations in accordance with Section 2.05(c)(ii).

Cash Proceeds described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(c) are attributable to a Foreign Subsidiary that would otherwise give rise to a prepayment obligation under any

such clause (x) are prohibited or delayed by applicable local law or restrictions (not effected in anticipation or contemplation of such prepayment) under such Foreign Subsidiary’s Governing Documents (including as a result of minority

ownership) from being repatriated to the United States or (y) the upstreaming or transfer as a distribution or dividend of which would, in the good faith determination of the Borrower in consultation with the AdministrativeTerm Loan B Agent, cause any Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary thereof to incur a material adverse liability (including any withholding tax) or a material adverse tax consequence (including a deemed dividend) and

(B) to the extent that any or all of the relevant Net Cash Proceeds described in clauses (ii) through (iv) of this Section 2.05(c) are received by any joint venture, for so long as the repatriation

to the Borrower of such Net Cash Proceeds would be prohibited under the Governing Documents governing such joint venture or the existing documents governing the Indebtedness of such joint venture (such amount described in the foregoing

clause (A) or (B), as the case may be, a “Restricted Amount”), then the amount the Borrower will be required to mandatorily prepay shall be reduced by the Restricted Amount and such Restricted

Amount may be retained by the applicable Restricted Subsidiary, and the failure to apply any such Restricted Amounts toward any such mandatory prepayment shall not result in a Default or Event of Default hereunder; provided, that if and to the

extent any such repatriation ceases to be prohibited, restricted or delayed by applicable local law or restrictions at any time during the one (1) year period immediately following the date on which the applicable mandatory prepayment pursuant

to Section 2.05 was required to be made, the Loan Parties shall reasonably promptly repatriate, or cause to be repatriated, an amount equal to such portion of the Restricted Amount no longer prohibited, restricted or delayed from being

repatriated, and the Loan Parties shall reasonably promptly pay such portion of the Restricted Amount to the Lenders, which payment shall be applied in accordance with Section 2.05(d).

passu basis with the Lien securing the Obligations, until paid in full and second, to the Revolving Loans until paid in full and, with respect to the Revolving Loans, without a corresponding permanent reduction in Revolving Commitments

(ii) Each such prepayment of the Term Loans pursuant to clauses (c)(ii), and (c)(iii) of this Section 2.05 shall be

applied against the first four (4) scheduled installments of principal of the Term Loans in direct order of maturity of remaining amortization payments and next to the remaining principal repayment installments thereof on a pro rata basis.

(e) Interest and Fees. Any prepayment made pursuant to this Section 2.05 shall be accompanied by

(i) accrued and unpaid interest on the principal amount being prepaid to the date of prepayment, (ii) any Funding Losses and (iii) if such prepayment would reduce the amount of outstanding Loans to zero, all fees accrued and unpaid to

such date pursuant to Section 2.06.

(f) Cumulative Prepayments. Except as otherwise expressly provided

in this Section 2.05, payments with respect to any subsection of this Section 2.05 are in addition to payments made or required to be made under any other subsection of this Section 2.05.

AdministrativeTerm Loan

B Agent) prior to the required prepayment date, to decline all or any portion of any prepayment of its Term Loans pursuant to this Section 2.05 (other than an optional

prepayment pursuant to clause (b) of this Section 2.05, which may not be declined), in which case the aggregate amount of the payment that would have been applied to prepay the Term Loans but was

so declined shall be retained by the Borrower.

Section 2.06 Fees.

(a) Fee Letter. As and when due and payable under the terms of the Fee Letter, the Borrower shall pay the fees set forth in the Fee

Letter.

(b) Commitment Fee. From and after the Closing Date and until the Termination Date, the Borrower shall pay to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the account of the Revolving Lenders

(other than any Defaulting Lenders), in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares, quarterly in arrears on the last day of each quarter commencing September 30, 2025, the Commitment Fee.

Administrative Agent for the account of each Revolving Lender a participation fee with respect to its participations in each outstanding Letter of Credit, which shall accrue on the aggregate face

amount of such Letter of Credit at the same Applicable Margin used to determine the interest rate applicable to Revolving Loans that are SOFR Loans, during the period from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the later of the date on

which such Revolving Lender’s Commitment terminates and the date on which such Revolving Lender ceases to have any LC Exposure, and (ii) to each Issuing Bank for its own account a fronting fee with respect to each Letter of Credit issued

by such Issuing Bank, which shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum separately agreed upon between the Borrower and such Issuing Bank, during the period

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in the event that, on or prior to the date that is six

months after the First Amendment Effective Date, the Borrower (i) prepays, repays, refinances,

substitutes or replaces any Term B Loans in connection with a Repricing Transaction or (ii) effects any

amendment, modification or waiver of, or consent under, this Agreement resulting in a Repricing Transaction, the Borrower shall pay to the Term Loan B Agent, for the ratable account of each of the applicable Term B Lenders, (A) in the case of clause (i), a premium of 1.00% of the aggregate principal amount of the Term B Loans so prepaid, repaid,

refinanced, substituted or replaced and (B) in the case of clause (ii), a fee equal to 1.00% of the

portion of the Term B Loans held by any Term B Lender are prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced pursuant to

Section 12.02(b) as a result of, or in connection with, such Term B Lender not agreeing or otherwise

consenting to any waiver, consent, modification or amendment referred to in clause (ii) above (or

otherwise in connection with a Repricing Transaction), such prepayment, repayment, refinancing, substitution

or replacement will be made at 101% of the principal amount so prepaid, repaid, refinanced, substituted or replaced. All such amounts shall be due and payable on the date of effectiveness of such Repricing Transaction.

Section 2.07 Inability to Determine Interest Rates.

(a) Temporary Unavailability of SOFR Rate. If, prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for any SOFR Borrowing:

(i) the

applicable Administrative Agent determines (which determination

shall be conclusive absent manifest error) that Term SOFR cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof, or

(ii) the applicable Administrative Agent is advised by Required Lenders that for

any reason in connection with any request for a SOFR Loan or a conversion thereto or a continuation thereof that Term SOFR for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such

Lenders of funding such Loan, and the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the

applicable Administrative Agent,

then the applicable

Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders (or the Swingline Lender, as the case may be) by telephone or as otherwise permitted hereunder as promptly as

practicable thereafter. Upon notice thereof by the applicable

Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain SOFR Loans, and any right of the Borrower to continue

SOFR Loans or to convert ABR Loans to SOFR Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Interest Periods) until the applicable Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (b), at

the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans (to the extent of the affected Interest

Periods) or, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans in the amount specified therein and (ii) any outstanding affected SOFR Loans will be deemed

to have been converted into ABR Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period. Upon any such conversion, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to

Section 2.07(c). Subject to Section 2.07(b), if the

applicable Administrative Agent determines (which

determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that “Term SOFR” cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof on any given day, the interest rate on ABR Loans shall be determined by the applicable Administrative Agent without reference to

clause (c) of the definition of “ABR” until the applicable Administrative Agent revokes such determination.

(b) Benchmark Replacement Setting.

(i) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, if a Benchmark

Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (x) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with clause (a) 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 such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark

settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent (subject to clause (y) below) of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Loan Document and (y) if a Benchmark Replacement is determined in accordance with

clause (b) 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 applicable

Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. If the Benchmark Replacement is Daily

Simple SOFR, all interest payments will be payable on a monthly basis. Each Swap Agreement shall be deemed not to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this Section 2.07(b).

(ii) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark

Replacement, the applicable 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.

(iii)

Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The applicable Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (A) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (B) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes in

connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The applicable

Administrative Agent will notify the Borrower of (x) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (iv) below and (y) the commencement of any

Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the applicable

Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 2.07(b), 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 2.07(b).

(iv) Unavailability of Tenor of

Benchmark. 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), (A) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the

Term SOFR Reference Rate) and either (x) 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 applicable Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or

(y) the administrator of such Benchmark or 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 applicable Administrative Agent

may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and

(B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (x) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (y) 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

applicable Administrative Agent may modify the definition

of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(v) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability

Period, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a Borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of SOFR Loans to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period and, failing that, the Borrower will be deemed to have

converted any such request into a request for a Borrowing of or conversion to ABR Loans. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the ABR based

upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the ABR.

connection with each SOFR Loan, the Borrower shall indemnify, defend, and hold the Agents and the Lenders harmless against any loss, cost, or expense incurred by any Agent or any Lender as a result of (a) the payment of any principal of any

SOFR Loan other than on the last day of an Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of a Default or an Event of Default or any mandatory prepayment required pursuant to Section 2.05(c)), (b) the conversion

of any SOFR Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto (including as a result of a Default or an Event of Default), or (c) the failure to borrow (other than as a result of a failure of a Defaulting Lender to fund

in accordance with this Agreement), convert, continue or prepay any SOFR Loan on the date specified in any Notice of Borrowing or notice of conversion, continuation or prepayment delivered pursuant hereto (such losses, costs, and expenses,

collectively, “Funding Losses”), including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by any

Agent or any Lender to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision hereof, if any

Requirement of Law, or any Change in Law, shall make it unlawful for any Lender (for purposes of this Section 2.07(d), the term “Lender” shall include any Lender and the office or branch where any Lender or any

corporation or bank controlling such Lender makes or maintains any SOFR Loans) to make or maintain its SOFR Loans, the

applicable Administrative Agent shall provide notice of same to

the Borrower and the obligation of the

Lenders to make SOFR Loans hereunder shall forthwith be suspended until such notice is withdrawn by the

applicable Administrative Agent, and the Borrower shall, if any

affected SOFR Loans are then outstanding, promptly upon request from the applicable Administrative Agent, either pay all such affected SOFR Loans or convert such affected SOFR Loans into loans of another type. If any such payment or conversion of any SOFR Loan is made on a day that is not the

last day of the Interest Period applicable to such SOFR Loan, the Borrower shall pay the applicable Administrative Agent, upon the applicable Administrative Agent’s request, such amount or amounts as may be necessary to compensate the Lenders for any Funding Losses sustained or incurred by the Lenders in respect of such SOFR Loan as a result of

such payment or conversion, including (but not limited to) any interest or other amounts payable by the Lenders to lenders of funds obtained by the Lenders in order to make or maintain such SOFR Loan. A certificate as to any additional amounts that

describes in reasonable detail the calculations thereof payable pursuant to the foregoing sentence submitted by the Lenders to the Borrower shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 2.08 Extended Term Loans; Extended Revolving Commitments.

(a) The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, request that all or a portion of any class of Term Loan be amended to extend the

scheduled maturity date (a “Term Loan Extension”) with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of the applicable Term Loan (the Term Loan or portion thereof that has been so amended, “Extended Term

Loans”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.08 without the consent of any Lender other than the extending Lender(s). In order to establish any Extended Term Loan, the Borrower shall

provide a notice to the

AdministrativeTerm Loan

B Agent (who shall promptly provide a copy of such notice to each Term Loan Lender) (a “Term Loan Extension Request”), (i) certifying that no Default or Event of Default then

exists or would result from such Term Loan Extension, (ii) certifying that both before and after giving effect to such Term Loan Extension, each of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents

shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the proposed effective date for such Term Loan Extension to the same extent as though made on and as of that date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly

relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects on and as of such earlier date, provided that if a representation and warranty is qualified as to

materiality, the materiality qualifier set forth above shall be disregarded with respect to such representation and warranty for purposes of this condition, (iii) the Borrower shall have offered to all Term Loan Lenders the opportunity to

participate in such Term Loan Extension on a pro rata basis with respect to the corresponding Term Loan and on the same terms and conditions to each such Term Loan Lender and any applicable Term Loan Lender may elect to agree or to decline to

participate in such Term Loan Extension, in its sole discretion, and (iv) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Term Loans to be established, which (x) shall be identical as offered to each Term Loan Lender of the applicable

class (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Term Loan Lender of the applicable class and (y) shall specify the date on which the Borrower proposes that the Term Loan Extension shall be

effective and the proposed final maturity date of the Extended Term Loan, except that:

(i) all or any of the scheduled

amortization payments of principal of the Extended Term Loan may be delayed to later dates than the scheduled amortization payments of principal of the applicable Term Loan, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment;

(ii) repayments of principal of the Extended Term Loan may be delayed to dates occurring after the Final Maturity Date;

(iii) the effective All-In Yield with respect to the Extended Term Loan (whether in the form of

interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be

different than the effective All-In Yield for the applicable Term Loan to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment;

(iv) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply only after the Final Maturity Date that is in effect on the

effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such Extended Term Loan);

(v) Extended Term Loans

may have mandatory prepayment terms that provide for the application of proceeds from mandatory prepayment events to be made first to prepay the applicable Term Loan before applying any such proceeds to prepay such Extended Term Loans; and

(vi) Extended Term Loans may have optional prepayment terms (including call protection and terms which allow the applicable Term Loan to be

optionally prepaid prior to the prepayment of such Extended Term Loan) as may be agreed by the Borrower and the Lenders; provided that no Extended Term Loans may be optionally prepaid prior to the date on which the Obligations (other than

Contingent Indemnity Obligations) with respect to the applicable Term Loan are paid in full, unless such optional prepayment is accompanied by a pro rata optional prepayment of the applicable Term Loan.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) in no event shall the final maturity date of any Extended Term Loan at the time of

establishment thereof be earlier than the Final Maturity Date, (ii) the Weighted Average Life to Maturity of any Extended Term Loan at the time of establishment thereof shall be no shorter than the remaining Weighted Average Life to Maturity of

the applicable Term Loan, and (iii) any Extended Term Loan may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments hereunder, in each case

as specified in the respective Term Loan Extension Request.

a portion of the Revolving Commitments be amended to extend the scheduled maturity date (a “Revolving Extension”) with respect to all or a portion of any principal amount of such Revolving Commitments (any such Revolving

Commitments which have been so amended, “Extended Revolving Commitments”) and to provide for other terms consistent with this Section 2.08 without the consent of any Revolving Lender other than the

extending Revolving Lender(s). In order to establish any Extended Revolving Credit Commitments, the Borrower shall provide a notice to the

Revolver Administrative Agent (who shall promptly provide a copy

of such notice to each Revolving Lender) (each, a “Revolving Extension Request”), (i) certifying that no Default or Event of Default then exists, (ii) certifying that both before and after giving effect to such Revolving

Extension, each of the representations and warranties contained in this Agreement and in the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the proposed effective date for the Revolving Extension to the same

extent as though made on and as of that date, except to the extent such representations and warranties expressly relate to an earlier date, in which case such representations and warranties shall have been true and correct in all material respects

on and as of such earlier date, provided that if a representation and warranty is qualified as to materiality, the materiality qualifier set forth above shall be disregarded with respect to such representation and warranty for purposes of this

condition, (iii) the Borrower shall have offered to all Revolving Lenders the opportunity to participate in such Revolving Extension on a pro rata basis with respect to the Revolving Credit Commitments and on the same terms and conditions to

each such Revolving Lender, and any Revolving Lender may elect to agree or to decline, in its sole discretion, and (iv) setting forth the proposed terms of the Extended Revolving Commitments to be established, which (x) shall be identical

as offered to each Revolving Lender (including as to the proposed interest rates and fees payable) and offered pro rata to each Revolving Lender and (y) shall specify the date on which the Borrower proposes that the Revolving Extension shall be

effective and the proposed final maturity date of the Extended Revolving Commitment, except that:

(i) the maturity date of the Extended Revolving Commitments may be delayed to a later date

than the Final Maturity Date, to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment;

(ii) the effective All-In Yield with respect to the Extended Revolving Commitment (whether in the form of interest rate margin, upfront fees, original issue discount or otherwise) may be different than the effective All-In Yield for Revolving Extensions to the extent provided in the applicable Extension Amendment;

(iii) the Extension Amendment may provide for other covenants and terms that apply solely to any period after the Final Maturity Date that is

in effect on the effective date of the Extension Amendment (immediately prior to the establishment of such extended Revolving Credit Commitments); and

(iv) all borrowings under the Revolving Credit Commitments and the extended Revolving Credit Commitments and repayments thereunder shall be

made on a pro rata basis (except for (x) payments of interest and fees at different rates on extended Revolving Credit Commitments (and related outstandings) and (y) repayments required upon the maturity date of the non-extending Revolving Credit Commitments); provided that in no event shall the final maturity date of any extended Revolving Credit Commitments at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the then Final

Maturity Date of the corresponding Revolving Credit Commitments.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, (i) in no event shall

the final maturity date of any Extended Revolving Commitment at the time of establishment thereof be earlier than the Final Maturity Date, (ii) the amount of the extended Revolving Credit Commitments shall not include any scheduled decrease

prior to the Final Maturity Date, and (iii) any Extended Revolving Commitment may participate on a pro rata basis or less than a pro rata basis (but not greater than a pro rata basis) in any voluntary or mandatory repayments or prepayments

hereunder, in each case as specified in the respective Revolving Extension Request.

(e) The Borrower shall provide a Term Loan Extension

Request at least ten (10) Business Days prior to the date on which the Term Loan Lenders are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the AdministrativeTerm Loan B Agent, in each case acting reasonably to accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.08. No Term Loan Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to have any of its Term Loans

amended into Extended Term Loans pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request, and no Term Loan Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to respond to any such Term Loan Extension Request. Any Lender that does not respond to the Term Loan

Extension Request on or prior to the date specified therein shall be deemed to have rejected such Term Loan Extension Request. Any existing Term Loan Lender wishing to have all or a portion of its Term Loan subject to such Term Loan Extension

Request amended into Extended Term Loans shall notify the

AdministrativeTerm Loan

B Agent (each, an “Term Loan Extension Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Term Loan Extension Request of the amount of its Term Loans which it has elected to

be amended into Extended Term Loans (subject to any minimum denomination requirements imposed by the AdministrativeTerm Loan B Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount of

Term Loans in respect of which applicable Term Loan Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Term Loan Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Term Loans requested to be extended pursuant to the Term Loan Extension Request, Term Loans

subject to Term Loan Extension Elections shall be amended to Extended Term Loans on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the AdministrativeTerm Loan B Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate

principal amount of Term Loans included in each such Term Loan Extension Election.

(f) The Borrower shall provide a Revolving Extension Request at least ten (10) Business

Days prior to the date on which the Revolving Lenders are requested to respond, and shall agree to such procedures, if any, as may be established by, or acceptable to, the

Revolver Administrative Agent, in each case acting reasonably to

accomplish the purposes of this Section 2.08. No Revolving Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to agree to have any of its Revolving Credit Commitments amended into Extended Revolving Commitments pursuant to any

Revolving Extension Request, and no Revolving Lender shall have any obligation whatsoever to respond to any such Revolving Extension Request. Any Revolving Lender that does not respond to the Revolving Extension Request on or prior to the date

specified therein shall be deemed to have rejected such Revolving Extension Request. Any Revolving Lender wishing to have all or a portion of its Revolving Credit Commitment subject to such Revolving Extension Request amended into extended Revolving

Credit Commitments shall notify the Revolver Administrative Agent (each, a “Revolving Extension

Election”) on or prior to the date specified in such Revolving Extension Request of the amount of its Revolving Credit Commitments which it has elected to be amended into Extended Revolving Commitments (subject to any minimum denomination

requirements imposed by the Revolver Administrative Agent). In the event that the aggregate principal amount

of Revolving Commitments in respect of which applicable Revolving Lenders shall have accepted the relevant Revolving Extension Request exceeds the amount of Extended Revolving Commitments requested to be extended pursuant to the Revolving Extension

Request, Revolving Commitments subject to Revolving Extension Elections shall be amended to Revolving Commitments on a pro rata basis (subject to rounding by the

Revolver

Administrative Agent, which shall be conclusive) based on the aggregate principal amount of Revolving Commitments included in each such Revolving Extension Election.

(g) Extended Term Loans shall be established pursuant to an Extension Amendment to this Agreement among the Loan Parties, the AdministrativeTerm Loan B Agent, the Collateral Agent and each Term Loan Lender providing an Extended Term Loan, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth above (but which shall not require the consent of any other Lender

other than those consents provided pursuant to this Agreement). Each Extension Amendment shall be binding on the Lenders, the Loan Parties and the other parties hereto. In connection with any Extension Amendment, the Loan Parties, the AdministrativeTerm Loan

B Agent and the Collateral Agent shall enter into such amendments to the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Agents in order to ensure that the Extended Term Loans are

provided with the benefit of the Collateral provided in the other Loan Documents and shall deliver such other agreements, documents, certificates and opinions of counsel in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Agents.

(h) Extended Revolving Commitments shall be established pursuant to an Extension Amendment to this Agreement among the Loan

Parties, the

Revolver

Administrative Agent, and each Revolving Lender providing an Extended Revolving Commitment, which shall be consistent with the provisions set forth above (but which shall not require the consent

of any other Revolving Lender other than those consents provided pursuant to this Agreement). Each Extension Amendment shall be binding on the Revolving Lenders, the Loan Parties and the other parties hereto. In connection with any Extension

Amendment, the Loan Parties, the Revolver Administrative Agent and the Collateral Agent shall enter into such

amendments to the other Loan Documents as may be reasonably requested by the Agents in order to ensure that the Extended Revolving Commitments are provided with the benefit of the Collateral provided in the other Loan Documents and shall deliver

such other agreements, documents, certificates and opinions of counsel in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Agents.

(i) The provisions of this Section 2.08 shall override any provision of Section 2.02

(other than provisions therein that require certain unanimous votes) to the contrary. No conversion of Loans pursuant to any Term Loan Extension Request and Revolving Extension Request, as applicable, in accordance with this

Section 2.08 shall constitute a voluntary or mandatory payment or prepayment for purposes of this Agreement.

Section 2.09 Taxes.

(a) Any and all payments by or on account of any Obligation of any Loan Party hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall be made free

and clear of and without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable law. If any Withholding Agent shall be required by applicable law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable hereunder to

any Secured Party as determined in such Withholding Agent’s good faith discretion, (i) the applicable Withholding Agent shall be entitled to make such deductions or withholdings and (ii) the applicable Withholding Agent shall pay the

full amount deducted or withheld to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law and (iii) if such Tax is an Indemnified Tax, then the sum payable by the applicable Loan Party shall be increased by the amount (an

“Additional Amount”) necessary such that after making all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions or withholdings for Indemnified Taxes applicable to additional sums payable under this

Section 2.09) such Secured Party (or such Transferee) receives the amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deduction or withholding been made.

(b) In addition, each Loan Party agrees to pay to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with applicable law any Other Taxes. As

soon as practicable after any payment of Taxes or Other Taxes by any Loan Party to a Governmental Authority pursuant to this Section 2.09, such Loan Party shall deliver to the applicable 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 applicable Administrative Agent.

(c) The Loan Parties hereby jointly and severally indemnify and agree to hold each Secured Party harmless from and against Indemnified Taxes

(including, Indemnified Taxes imposed on any amounts payable under this Section 2.09) payable or paid by such Person or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Secured Party and any reasonable expenses

arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. Such indemnification shall be paid within 10 days from the date on which any such Person

makes written demand therefore specifying in reasonable detail the nature and amount of such Indemnified Taxes. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the applicable Administrative Agent), or by the applicable Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a

Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Each Lender shall severally indemnify the applicable Administrative Agent, within 10 days after demand thereof,

for (i) any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that any Loan Party has not already indemnified the

applicable 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 12.07(i) relating to the maintenance of a Participant

applicable Administrative Agent in connection with this

Agreement or any other 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 applicable Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the

applicable Administrative Agent to set off and apply any

and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or otherwise payable by the

applicable Administrative Agent to such Lender from any

other source against any amount due to the applicable

Administrative Agent under this paragraph.

(e) Any Secured Party that is entitled to an exemption from, or reduction of, withholding

Tax with respect to payments made under this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the

applicable Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably

requested by the Borrower or the applicable Administrative

Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable

Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Secured Party, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the

applicable Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other

documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the applicable

Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Secured Party is subject to backup withholding or 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 2.09(e)(i), 2.09(e)(ii) or 2.09(e)(iv)) shall not be required if in

the Secured Party’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Secured Party to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Secured

Party.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that (A) the Borrower is a U.S. Person or (B) an interest

payment made to a Recipient under this Agreement is interest that is “treated as income from sources within the United States” within the meaning of Section 861(a) of the Internal Revenue Code:

(i) any Secured Party that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such

Secured Party becomes a Secured Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the

applicable Administrative Agent), executed copies of IRS

Form W-9 certifying that such Secured Party is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding Tax;

(ii) any Foreign Secured Party shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be

requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Secured Party becomes a Secured Party under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent), whichever of the following is

applicable:

(1) in the case of a Foreign Secured Party claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the

United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form

W-8BEN-E, as applicable, establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax

treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable, 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;

(2) executed copies of IRS Form W-8ECI;

(3) in the case of a Foreign Secured Party claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the

Internal Revenue Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-1 to the effect that such Foreign Secured Party is not a “bank” within the meaning of

Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Internal Revenue Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Internal Revenue Code or a “controlled foreign corporation”

related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Internal Revenue Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS

Form W-8BEN-E, as applicable; or

(4) to the extent a Foreign Secured Party 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, as applicable, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-2 or Exhibit

H-3, IRS Form W-9 and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided that if the Foreign Secured Party is a partnership

and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Secured Party are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Secured Party may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H-4 on behalf of each such direct or indirect partner;

(iii) any Foreign Secured Party shall, to

the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or prior to the date on which such Foreign Secured Party becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time

thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the applicable 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 the Borrower or the applicable

Administrative Agent to determine withholding or deduction required to be made; and

(iv) if a payment made to a Secured Party under this Agreement or any other Loan Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding

Tax imposed by FATCA if such Secured Party were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Internal Revenue Code, as applicable), such Secured Party

shall deliver to the Borrower and the applicable Administrative

Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the

applicable Administrative Agent such documentation

prescribed by applicable law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Internal Revenue Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the applicable Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and

the applicable Administrative Agent to comply with their

obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Secured Party has complied with such Secured Party’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this clause

(iv), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

Each Secured Party

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

so.

(f) [reserved].

(g) 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 2.09 (including by the payment of additional amounts paid pursuant to this Section 2.09), 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 2.09 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 (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, in no event will any indemnified party be required to pay any amount to any indemnifying party pursuant to this paragraph the payment of which would place

such indemnified party in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such 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.

(h) The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.09 shall survive the

resignation or replacement of

theeither Administrative Agent (or both Administrative Agents) or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Secured Party, the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

(i) For purposes of this Section 2.09, the term “applicable law” includes FATCA.

Section 2.10 Increased Costs and Reduced Return. (a) If any Change in Law shall:

(i) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets

of, deposits with or for the account of, or credit extended or participated in by, any Lender or the Issuing Bank;

(ii) impose on any

Lender or the Issuing Bank any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit made by such Issuing Bank 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 or such other Recipient of making, converting, continuing or

maintaining any Loan (or of maintaining its obligation to make any such Loan) or to increase the cost to such Lender, such Issuing Bank or such other Recipient or participating in, issuing or maintaining any Letter of Credit (or of maintaining its

obligation to participate in or to issue any Letter of Credit) or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient hereunder (whether of principal, interest or otherwise), then, from

time to time upon request of such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, the Borrower will pay to such Lender, the Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the

Issuing Bank or such other Recipient, as applicable, for such additional costs or expenses incurred or reduction suffered.

(b) If any

Lender or any Issuing Bank determines that any Change in Law regarding capital or liquidity requirements has had 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 such Lender or the Loans made by, or participation 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, the Issuing Bank or the holding company thereof 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 the holding company thereof with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then, from time to time upon the request of such Lender or the Issuing Bank, the Borrower will pay to such Lender or the Issuing Bank, as applicable,

such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender, the Issuing Bank, or the holding company thereof for any such reduction suffered.

Section 2.10, specifying the event herein above described and the nature of such event shall be submitted by such Secured Party to the Borrower, setting forth the additional amount due and an explanation of the calculation

thereof, and such Secured Party’s reasons for invoking the provisions of this Section 2.10, and shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

(d) Failure or delay on the part of any Lender to demand compensation pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this

Section 2.10 shall not constitute a waiver of such Lender’s right to demand such compensation; provided that the Borrower shall not be required to compensate a Lender pursuant to the foregoing provisions of

this Section 2.10 for any increased costs incurred or reductions suffered more than 270 days prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or reductions

and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor; provided further that, if the Change in Law giving rise to such increased costs or expenses or reductions is retroactive, then the

270-day period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof.

Section 2.11 Changes in Law; Impracticability or Illegality.

(a) Term SOFR may be adjusted by the

applicable Administrative Agent with respect to any Lender on a

prospective basis to take into account any additional or increased costs to such Lender of maintaining or obtaining any SOFR Loan or increased costs due to changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the commencement of the then applicable

Interest Period, including changes in the reserve requirements imposed by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor), which additional or increased costs would increase the cost of funding loans bearing interest at Term

SOFR. In any such event, the affected Lender shall give the Borrower and the applicable Administrative Agent notice of such a determination and adjustment and the

applicable Administrative Agent promptly shall transmit the

notice to each other Lender and, upon its receipt of the notice from the affected Lender, the Borrower may, by notice to such affected Lender (i) require such Lender to furnish to the Borrower a statement setting forth the basis for adjusting

Term SOFR and the method for determining the amount of such adjustment, or (ii) repay the SOFR Loans with respect to which such adjustment is made (together with any amounts due under Section 2.09).

(b) In the event that any change in market conditions or any law, regulation, treaty, or directive, or any change therein or in the

interpretation of application thereof, shall at any time after the Closing Date, in the reasonable opinion of any Lender, make it unlawful or impractical for such Lender to fund or maintain SOFR Loans or to continue such funding or maintaining, or

to determine or charge interest rates at Term SOFR, such Lender shall give notice of such changed circumstances to the Borrower and the

applicable Administrative Agent, and the applicable Administrative Agent promptly shall transmit the notice to

each other Lender and (i) in the case of any SOFR Loans of such Lender that are outstanding, the date specified in such Lender’s notice shall be deemed to be the last day of the Interest Period of such SOFR Loans, and interest upon the

SOFR Loans of such Lender thereafter shall accrue interest at the rate then applicable to ABR Loans of the same type hereunder, and (ii) the Borrower shall not be entitled to elect the SOFR Option (including in any borrowing, conversion or

continuation then being requested) until such Lender determines that it would no longer be unlawful or impractical to do so.

(c)

The obligations of the Loan Parties under this Section 2.11 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

Section 2.12 Mitigation Obligations; Replacement of Lenders.

100

(a) If any Lender requires the Borrower to pay any Additional Amounts under

Section 2.09 or requests compensation under Section 2.10, then such Lender shall (at the request of the Borrower) 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 such Section in the future, and (ii) would not subject such Lender to any unreimbursed cost or expense (other than de minimis costs and expenses) and would not otherwise be disadvantageous to such Lender. The Borrower hereby

agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by any Lender in connection with any such designation or assignment.

(b) If any

Lender requires the Borrower to pay any Additional Amounts under Section 2.09 or requests compensation under Section 2.10 and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a

different lending office in accordance with clause (a) above, or if any Lender is a Defaulting Lender or a Holdout Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the applicable Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and

delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 12.07), all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other 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 Collateral Agent shall have received any assignment fees specified in Section 12.07;

(ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans and participation in Letters of

Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 2.07(d) and Section 2.09) from

the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from payments required to be made pursuant to Section 2.09 or a

claim for compensation under Section 2.10, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(iv) such assignment does not conflict with applicable law; and

(v) in the case of any assignment resulting from a Lender becoming a Holdout Lender, the applicable assignee shall have consented (or is

willing to consent upon becoming a Lender) to the applicable amendment, waiver or consent.

Prior to the effective date of such assignment, the assigning

Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the conditions set forth above. If the assigning Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance within three (3) days of

delivery of the notice from the Borrower described above of such assignment, the assigning Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance or the Borrower may (but not obligated) to execute such an Assignment and

Assumption on behalf of such replaced Lender and such assignment shall be effective for purposes of this Section 2.12 and Section 12.07.

A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver or consent by such Lender or otherwise,

the circumstances entitling the Borrower (in the good faith judgment of the Borrower and the Agent) to require such assignment and delegation have ceased to apply.

ARTICLE III

LETTERS OF CREDIT

Section 3.01 General. Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may request any Issuing Bank to issue

Letters of Credit denominated in Dollars as the applicant thereof for the support of its or its Restricted Subsidiaries’ obligations, in a form reasonably acceptable to such Issuing Bank, at any time and from time to time during the period

from and including the Closing Date to but excluding the earlier of the Final Maturity Date and the date of termination of the Commitments. As of the Closing Date, the Existing Letter of Credit shall constitute, for all purposes of this Agreement

and the other Loan Documents, a Letter of Credit issued and outstanding hereunder.

Section 3.02 Notice of Issuance, Amendment,

Extension; Certain Conditions.

(a) To request the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or the amendment or extension of an outstanding

Letter of Credit), the Borrower shall hand deliver or telecopy (or transmit by electronic communication, if arrangements for doing so have been approved by the Issuing Bank) to an Issuing Bank selected by it and to the Revolver Administrative Agent (reasonably in advance of the requested

date of issuance, amendment or extension, but in any event no less than three (3) Business Days) (of such later date as the Issuing Bank may agree) a notice requesting the issuance of a Letter of Credit, or identifying the Letter of Credit to

be amended or extended, and specifying the date of issuance, amendment or extension (which shall be a Business Day), the date on which such Letter of Credit is to expire (which shall comply Section 3.03), the amount and

currency of such Letter of Credit, the name and address of the beneficiary thereof and such other information as shall be necessary to prepare, amend or extend such Letter of Credit. In addition, as a condition to any such Letter of Credit issuance,

the 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”). In the event of any inconsistency between the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the terms and conditions of any Letter of Credit Agreement, the

terms and conditions of this Agreement shall control. A Letter of Credit shall be issued, amended or extended only if (and upon issuance, amendment or extension of each Letter of Credit the Borrower shall be deemed to represent and warrant that),

after giving effect to such issuance, amendment or extension (i) (x) the aggregate undrawn amount of all outstanding Letters of Credit issued by any Issuing Bank at such time plus (y) the aggregate amount of all LC Disbursements made by

such Issuing Bank that have not yet been reimbursed by or on behalf of the Borrower at such time shall not exceed its Letter of Credit Commitment, (ii) the LC Exposure shall not exceed the total Letter of Credit Commitments, and (iii) no

Lender’s Revolving Exposure shall exceed its Commitment. The Borrower may, at any time and from time to time, reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank with the consent of such Issuing Bank; provided that the Borrower

shall not reduce the Letter of Credit Commitment of any Issuing Bank if, after giving effect of such reduction, the conditions set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above shall not be satisfied.

(b) An Issuing Bank shall not be under any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit if:

(i) any order, judgment or decree of any Governmental Authority or arbitrator shall by its terms purport to enjoin or restrain such Issuing

Bank from issuing such Letter of Credit, or any law applicable to such Issuing Bank shall prohibit, or require that such Issuing Bank refrain from, the issuance of letters of credit generally or such Letter of Credit in particular or shall impose

upon such Issuing Bank with respect to such Letter of Credit any restriction, reserve or capital requirement (for which such Issuing Bank is not otherwise compensated hereunder) not in effect on the effective date, or shall impose

102

upon such Issuing Bank any unreimbursed loss, cost or expense that was not applicable on the effective date and that such Issuing Bank in good faith deems material to it; or

(ii) the issuance of such Letter of Credit would violate one or more policies of such Issuing Bank applicable to letters of credit generally.

Section 3.03 Expiration Date. Each Letter of Credit shall expire (or be subject to termination by notice from the applicable

Issuing Bank to the beneficiary thereof) at or prior to the close of business on the earlier of (i) the 12-month anniversary of the date of the issuance of such Letter of Credit (or, in the case of any

extension of the expiration date thereof, twelve (12) months after such extension) and (ii) the date that is five (5) Business Days prior to date specified in clause (a)(ii) of the definition of the Final Maturity Date;

provided, however, that any Letter of Credit with a term not exceeding twelve (12) months may provide for its renewal for additional periods not exceeding twelve (12) months as long as (x) the Borrower and such Issuing Bank

have the option to prevent such renewal before the expiration of such term or any such period and (y) neither such Issuing Bank nor the Borrower shall permit any such renewal to extend such expiration date beyond the date set forth in clause

(ii) above; provided further that notwithstanding the foregoing, the Revolver Administrative Agent and the Issuing Bank may agree to extend such Letter of Credit beyond the date set forth in clause (ii) above upon the Borrower either (A) delivering to the Revolver Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Issuing Bank

cash equal to 103% of the sum of (1) the aggregate undrawn amount of such Letters of Credit at such time plus (2) the aggregate principal amount of all reimbursement obligations pursuant to Section 3.05

outstanding at such time with respect to such Letters of Credit that have matured, in each instance, on and as of the date of such extension, or (B) delivering to the Issuing Bank on the date of such extension one or more letters of credit for

the benefit of the Issuing Bank, issued by a bank reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, each in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Issuing Bank in its sole discretion, and in an amount equal to the sum of

(1) and (2) above.

Section 3.04 Participations. By the issuance of a Letter of Credit (or an amendment to a

Letter of Credit increasing the amount thereof) and without any further action on the part of the applicable Issuing Bank or the Lenders, such Issuing Bank hereby grants to each Lender, and each Lender hereby acquires from such Issuing Bank, a

participation in such Letter of Credit equal to such Lender’s Pro Rata Share 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 Revolver Administrative

Agent, for the account of the Issuing Bank, such Lender’s Pro Rata Share of each LC Disbursement made by such Issuing Bank and not reimbursed by the Borrower on the date due as provided in Section 3.05, or of any

reimbursement payment required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason, including after the Final Maturity Date. Each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender acknowledges and

agrees that its obligation to acquire participations pursuant to this paragraph in respect of Letters of Credit is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including any amendment or extension of any

Letter of Credit or the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments.

Section 3.05

Reimbursement. If an Issuing Bank shall make any LC Disbursement in respect of a Letter of Credit, the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement by paying to the

Revolver Administrative Agent an amount in the currency of such LC

Disbursement equal to such LC Disbursement not later than one (1) Business Day immediately following the day that the Borrower receives notice of such LC Disbursement; provided that the Borrower may, subject to the conditions to

borrowing set forth herein, request in accordance with Section 2.02 that such payment be financed with an ABR Borrowing in an equivalent amount, to the extent so financed, the Borrower’s obligation to make such

payment shall be discharged and replaced by the resulting ABR Borrowing. If the Borrower fails to make such payment

103

when due, the Revolver Administrative Agent shall notify each Lender of the applicable LC Disbursement, the payment then due from the Borrower in respect thereof and such Lender’s Pro Rata Share thereof. Promptly following

receipt of such notice, each Lender shall pay to the

Revolver Administrative Agent its Pro Rata Share of the

payment then due from the Borrower, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02(c) with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02(c) shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the

payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Revolver

Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Issuing Bank the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. Promptly following receipt by the

Revolver Administrative Agent of any payment from the

Borrower pursuant to this paragraph, the Revolver

Administrative Agent shall distribute such payment to the Issuing Bank or, to the extent that Lenders have made payments pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse such Issuing Bank, then to such Lenders and such Issuing Bank as their interests

may appear. Any payment made by a Lender pursuant to this paragraph to reimburse an Issuing Bank for any LC Disbursement (other than the funding of ABR Loans as contemplated above) shall not constitute a Loan and shall not relieve the Borrower

of its obligation to reimburse such LC Disbursement.

Section 3.06 Obligations Absolute. The Borrower’s

obligation to reimburse LC Disbursements as provided in Section 3.05 shall be absolute, unconditional and irrevocable, and shall be performed strictly in accordance with the terms of this Agreement under any and all

circumstances whatsoever and irrespective of (i) any lack of validity or enforceability of any Letter of Credit, any Letter of Credit Agreement or this Agreement, or any term or provision therein, (ii) any draft or other document presented

under a Letter of Credit proving to be forged, fraudulent or invalid in any respect or any statement therein being untrue or inaccurate in any respect, (iii) payment by the 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 Article III,

constitute a legal or equitable discharge of, or provide a right of setoff against, the Borrower’s obligations hereunder. Neither the

Revolver Administrative Agent, the Lenders nor any Issuing Bank,

nor any of their respective Affiliates and the respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors of such Person and such Person’s Affiliates, shall have any liability or responsibility by reason of or in connection with the

issuance or transfer of any Letter of Credit or any payment or failure to make any payment thereunder (irrespective of any of the circumstances referred to in the preceding sentence), or any error, omission, interruption, loss or delay in

transmission or delivery of any draft, notice or other communication under or relating to any Letter of Credit (including any document required to make a drawing thereunder), any error in interpretation of technical terms, any error in translation

or any consequence arising from causes beyond the control of the Issuing Bank; provided that the foregoing shall not be construed to excuse an Issuing Bank from liability to the Borrower to the extent of any direct damages (as opposed to

special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages, claims in respect of which are hereby waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law) suffered by the Borrower that are caused by such Issuing 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 an 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, an 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.

Section 3.07 Disbursement Procedures. The Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit shall, within the time allowed by

applicable law or the specific terms of the Letter of Credit following its receipt thereof, examine all documents purporting to represent a demand for payment under such Letter of Credit.

104

Such Issuing Bank shall promptly after such examination notify the

Revolver Administrative Agent and the Borrower by telephone

(confirmed by telecopy or electronic mail) of such demand for payment if such Issuing Bank has made or will make an LC Disbursement thereunder; provided that any failure to give or delay in giving such notice shall not relieve the Borrower of

their obligation to reimburse such Issuing Bank and the Lenders with respect to any such LC Disbursement.

Section 3.08

Interim Interest. If the Issuing Bank for any Letter of Credit shall make any LC Disbursement, then, unless the Borrower shall reimburse such LC Disbursement in full in the applicable currency 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 reimbursement is due and payable at the rate per annum then applicable to ABR Revolving Loans

and such interest shall be due and payable on the date when such reimbursement is payable; provided that, if the Borrower fails to reimburse such LC Disbursement when due pursuant to Section 3.05, then

Section 2.04(c) 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

Section 3.05 to reimburse such Issuing Bank for such LC Disbursement shall be for the account of such Lender to the extent of such payment.

Section 3.09 Replacement and Resignation of an Issuing Bank. (a) An Issuing Bank may be replaced at any time by written

agreement among the Borrower, the Revolver Administrative Agent,

the replaced Issuing Bank and the successor Issuing Bank. The Revolver Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of an Issuing Bank. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid fees accrued for the account of

the replaced Issuing Bank pursuant to Section 2.06(c). From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) 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 (y) 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 the Issuing

Bank, 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 issued by it prior to such replacement, but shall not be required to issue additional Letters of Credit.

(b) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Issuing Bank, any Issuing Bank may resign as an Issuing Bank at any time upon

thirty days’ prior written notice to the Revolver

Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such resigning Issuing Bank shall be replaced in accordance with Section 3.09(a) above.

Section 3.10 Cash Collateralization. If any Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, within one (1) Business Day that

the Borrower receives notice from the Revolver Administrative

Agent or the Required Lenders demanding the deposit of cash collateral pursuant to this paragraph, the Borrower shall deposit in an account or accounts with the

Revolver Administrative Agent, in the name of the Revolver Administrative Agent and for the benefit of the Lenders (the

“Collateral Account”), an amount in cash equal to 103% of the LC Exposure as of such date plus any 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 the Borrower described in Sections 9.01(f) and (g). Such

deposit shall be held by the Revolver Administrative Agent

as collateral for the payment and performance of the obligations of the Borrower under this Agreement. In addition, and without limiting the foregoing or Section 3.03, if any LC Exposure remain outstanding after the

expiration date specified in Section 3.03, the Borrower shall immediately deposit into the Collateral Account an

105

amount in cash equal to 103% of such LC Exposure as of such date plus any accrued and unpaid interest thereon.

(a) The

Revolver Administrative Agent shall have exclusive dominion and

control, including the exclusive right of withdrawal, over the Collateral Account. Other than any interest earned on the investment of such deposits, which investments shall be made at the option and sole discretion of the Revolver Administrative Agent and at the Borrower’s risk and

expense, such deposits shall not bear interest. Interest or profits, if any, on such investments shall accumulate in such account. Moneys in such account shall be applied by the Revolver Administrative Agent to reimburse each Issuing Bank for LC

Disbursements for which it has not been reimbursed, together with related fees, costs and customary processing charges, and, to the extent not so applied, shall be held for the satisfaction of the reimbursement obligations pursuant to

Section 3.05 of the Borrower for the LC Exposure at such time or, if the maturity of the Loans has been accelerated, be applied to satisfy other Obligations. If the Borrower is required to provide an amount of cash

collateral hereunder as a result of the occurrence of an Event of Default, such amount (to the extent not applied as aforesaid) shall be returned to the Borrower within three (3) Business Days after all Events of Default have been cured or

waived.

Section 3.11 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 Restricted Subsidiary, or states that a Restricted 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 applicable Issuing Bank (whether arising by contract, at law, in equity or otherwise) against such Restricted Subsidiary in

respect of such Letter of Credit, the Borrower (i) shall reimburse, indemnify and compensate the applicable 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 the 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 Restricted Subsidiary in respect

of such Letter of Credit. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that the issuance of such Letters of Credit for its Restricted Subsidiaries inures to the benefit of the Borrower, and that the Borrower’s business derives substantial benefits

from the businesses of such Restricted Subsidiaries.

ARTICLE IV

APPLICATION OF PAYMENTS; DEFAULTING LENDERS

Section 4.01 Payments; Computations and Statements. (a) The Borrower will make each payment under this Agreement not later

than 12:00 p.m. (New York City time) on the day when due, in lawful money of the United States of America and in immediately available funds, to the

applicable Administrative Agent’s Account. All payments

received by the applicable Administrative Agent after 12:00

p.m. (New York City time) on any Business Day will be credited to the applicable Loan Account on the next succeeding Business Day. All payments shall be made by the Borrower without set-off, counterclaim, recoupment, deduction or other defense to the

Agents and the Lenders. Except as provided in Section 2.02, after receipt, the

applicable Administrative Agent will promptly thereafter

cause to be distributed like funds relating to the payment of principal ratably to the Lenders in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares and like funds relating to the payment of any other amount payable to any Lender to such Lender, in each case to

be applied in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Whenever any payment to be made under any such Loan Document shall be stated to be due on a day other than a Business Day, such payment shall be made on the next succeeding Business Day and

such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of interest or fees, as the case may be. All computations of fees shall

106

be made by the applicable Administrative Agent on the basis of a year of 360 days for the actual number of days. Each determination by the

applicable Administrative Agent of an interest rate or fees

hereunder shall be conclusive and binding for all purposes in the absence of manifest error.

(b) The applicable Administrative Agent shall provide the Borrower, promptly

after the end of each calendar month, a summary statement (in the form from time to time used by the applicable

Administrative Agent) of the opening and closing daily balances in the

applicable Loan Account of the Borrower during such month,

the amounts and dates of all Loans made to the Borrower during such month, the amounts and dates of all payments on account of the Loans to the Borrower during such month and the Loans to which such payments were applied, the amount of interest

accrued on the Loans to the Borrower during such month, any Letters of Credit issued by the Issuing Bank for the account of the Borrower during such month, specifying the face amount thereof, the amount of charges to the applicable Loan Account and/or Loans made to the Borrower during such

month to reimburse the Revolving Lenders for drawings made under Letters of Credit, and the amount and nature of any charges to the

applicable Loan Account made during such month on account

of fees, commissions, expenses and other Obligations. All entries on any such statement shall be presumed to be correct and, 30 days after the same is sent, shall be final and conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 4.02 Sharing of Payments. Except as provided in Section 2.02, if any Lender shall obtain any

payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of set-off, or otherwise) on account of any Obligation in excess of its ratable share of payments on account of similar obligations

obtained by all the Lenders, such Lender shall forthwith (a) turn the same over to Administrative Agent, in kind, and with such endorsements as may be required to negotiate the same to Administrative Agent, or in immediately available funds, as

applicable, for the account of all of the Lenders and for application to the Obligations in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement, or (b) purchase from the other Lenders such participations in such similar obligations held

by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of them in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that (a) if all or any portion

of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from each Lender shall be rescinded and each Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery together with an

amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender of any interest or other amount

paid by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount so recovered) and (b) the provisions of this Section 4.02 shall not be construed to apply to (i) any payment made by the Borrower pursuant to and in

accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender), or (ii) 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 Letters of Credit to any assignee or participant, other than to any Loan Party or any Restricted Subsidiary thereof (as to which the provisions of this

Section 4.02 shall apply). The Borrower agrees that any Lender so purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 4.02 may, to the fullest extent permitted by law,

exercise all of its rights (including the Lender’s right of set-off) with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrower in the amount of such

participation.

Section 4.03 Apportionment of Payments. Subject to Section 2.02 hereof and to any

written agreement among the Agents and/or the Lenders:

(a) All payments of principal and interest in respect of outstanding Loans, all

payments in respect of the LC Exposure, all payments of fees (other than the fees set forth in Section 2.06 hereof) and all other payments in respect of any other Obligations, shall be allocated by the applicable Administrative Agent among such of the Lenders as are

entitled thereto, in proportion to their respective

107

Pro Rata Shares or otherwise as provided herein or, in respect of payments not made on account of Loans or LC Exposure, as designated by the Person making payment when the payment is made.

(b) After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the applicable Administrative Agent may, and upon the direction of the

Required Lenders shall, apply all payments in respect of any Obligations, including all proceeds of the Collateral pursuant to Section 9.03, subject to any Permitted Pari Passu Intercreditor Agreement or Permitted Junior

Intercreditor Agreement, if applicable.

Section 4.04 Defaulting Lenders. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(a) Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be

restricted as set forth in Section 12.02.

(b) The applicable Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to transfer to

such Defaulting Lender any payments made by the Borrower to the applicable Administrative Agent for such Defaulting Lender’s benefit, and, in the absence of such transfer to such Defaulting Lender, the

applicable Administrative Agent shall transfer any such

payments to each other non-Defaulting Lender ratably in accordance with their Pro Rata Shares (without giving effect to the Pro Rata Shares of such Defaulting Lender) (but only to the extent that such

Defaulting Lender’s Loans were funded by the other Lenders) or, if so directed by the Borrower and if no Default or Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and to the extent such Defaulting Lender’s Loans were not funded by the

other Lenders), retain the same to be re-advanced to the Borrower as if such Defaulting Lender had made such Loans to the Borrower. Subject to the foregoing, the applicable Administrative Agent may hold and, in its discretion, re-lend to the Borrower for the account of such Defaulting Lender the amount of all such payments received and retained by the

applicable Administrative Agent for the account of such

Defaulting Lender.

Lender of this Agreement and shall entitle the Borrower to replace the Defaulting Lender in accordance with Section 2.12. Such notice to replace the Defaulting Lender shall specify an effective date for such replacement,

which date shall not be later than 3 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Defaulting Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance, subject only to the Defaulting

Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations without any premium or penalty of any kind whatsoever. If the Defaulting Lender shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date

of such replacement, the Defaulting Lender shall be deemed to have executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Defaulting Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 12.07.

(d) The operation of this Section 4.03 shall not be construed to increase or otherwise affect the

Commitments of any Lender, to relieve or excuse the performance by such Defaulting Lender or any other Lender of its duties and obligations hereunder, or to relieve or excuse the performance by the Borrower of its duties and obligations hereunder to

the applicable Administrative Agent or to the Lenders other than

such Defaulting Lender.

(e) This Section 4.03 shall remain effective with respect to such Lender until

either (i) the Obligations under this Agreement shall have been declared or shall have become immediately due and payable or (ii) the non-Defaulting Lenders, the Agents, and the Borrower shall have

waived such Defaulting Lender’s default in writing, and the Defaulting Lender makes its Pro Rata Share of the applicable defaulted

108

Loans and pays to the Agents all amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender in respect thereof; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or

payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while such 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 such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

(h) Maintenance of Insurance. Maintain, and cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries, (other than Immaterial Subsidiaries) to

maintain, insurance with responsible and reputable insurance companies or associations with respect to its properties (including all Real Properties leased or owned by it) and business, in such amounts and covering such risks as is required by any

theeach Administrative Agent and each Lender pursuant to this clause (vi) contains any information deemed “classified” by the Government or the dissemination of any such information to theeach Administrative Agent and each Lender would result in any Loan Party or its Restricted Subsidiaries violating any Applicable Laws or Government Contract, then the Loan Parties shall deliver to theeach Administrative Agent and each Lender a summary of such letter, notice, subpoena, court order, pleading or other document containing a summary thereof, but including as much (but no more) detail as can be included

in each case, in respect of the Borrower and (ii) a public rating (but not any specific rating) in

respect of the Term B Loans from each of Standard &

Poor’s

and

(m) [Reserved].

(n) Use of Proceeds. (i) The proceeds of the Term Loans made on the Closing Date shall be used (A) to pay the Transaction

Costs and (B) to repay in full the Existing Indebtedness

and, (ii) the proceeds of Revolving

Loans shall be used by the Borrower from time to time after the Closing Date for general working capital and other general corporate purposes of the Borrower (including, but not limited to, Permitted Acquisitions and Capital Expenditures) and

(iii) the proceeds of the Term B Loan made on the First Amendment Effective Date shall be used

(A) to pay fees and expenses in connection with the First Amendment and the PAG Acquisition,

(B) to pay a portion of the consideration for the PAG Acquisition and (C) to repay in full the outstanding Initial Term Loan. The proceeds

of any Incremental Loans shall be used solely for generally working capital and general corporate purposes, including, but not limited Permitted Acquisitions, Permitted Investments and Permitted Restricted Payments. The Borrower will not request any

Loan or Letter of Credit, and the Borrower shall not use, and shall procure that its Restricted Subsidiaries and their or their respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall not use, the proceeds of any Loan or Letter of Credit

(A) in furtherance of an offer, payment, promise to pay, or authorization of the payment or giving of money, or anything else of value, to any Person in violation of any Anti-Corruption Laws, (B) for the purpose of funding, financing or

facilitating any activities, business or transaction of or with any Sanctioned Person, or in any Sanctioned Country to the extent such activities, businesses or transaction would be prohibited by Sanctions if conducted by a corporation incorporated

(o) Designation of Restricted Subsidiaries.

(i) The Borrower may at any time and from time to time after the Closing Date designate pursuant to this clause (i) any

Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary or any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a Restricted Subsidiary; provided that immediately after such designation on a pro forma basis, no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing;

provided, further, that no Restricted Subsidiary may be re-designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and no Unrestricted Subsidiary

124

may be re-designated as a Restricted Subsidiary, in each case, on more than one occasion. The designation of any Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted

Subsidiary after the Closing Date pursuant to this clause (i) shall constitute an Investment by the Borrower therein at the date of designation in an amount equal to (i) the lesser of (A) the fair market value of the

Investments of the Loan Parties and their Restricted Subsidiaries in such Unrestricted Subsidiary at the time of such designation, combination or transfer (or of the assets transferred or conveyed, as applicable) and (B) the fair market value

of Investments of the Loan Parties and their Restricted Subsidiaries made in connection with the designation of such Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary minus (ii) the portion (proportionate to the Loan Parties’ and

their Subsidiaries’ Capital Stock in such resulting Restricted Subsidiary) of the fair market value of the net assets of such Restricted Subsidiary at the time of such redesignation, combination or transfer (or of the assets transferred or

conveyed, as applicable). For the avoidance of doubt, such designation shall only be permitted if such Investment would be permitted under the definition of “Permitted Investment”. The designation of any Unrestricted Subsidiary as a

Restricted Subsidiary pursuant to this clause (i) shall constitute (i) the incurrence at the time of designation of any Investment, Indebtedness or Liens of such Subsidiary existing at such time and (ii) a return on any

Investment by the Borrower in Unrestricted Subsidiaries pursuant to the preceding sentence in an amount equal to the fair market value at the date of such designation of the Borrower’s or its Subsidiaries’ (as applicable) Investment in

such Subsidiary. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at no time may any Restricted Subsidiary be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if it owns or holds (or is the holder of an exclusive license of) any

Intellectual Property that is material to the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries (taken as a whole), and none of the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may contribute or otherwise transfer (including by way of an exclusive license)

any such material Intellectual Property to an Unrestricted Subsidiary. In addition, no Restricted Subsidiary may be designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary if such Subsidiary directly or indirectly owns any Equity Interests or Indebtedness of, or

holds a Lien on, any property of, Borrower, any Guarantor or any Subsidiary that is not a Restricted Subsidiary to be so designated as an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(ii) For all purposes hereunder, the designation of a Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be deemed to constitute a

concurrent designation of any Subsidiary of such Restricted Subsidiary as an Unrestricted Subsidiary. As set forth in Section 10.08, any Restricted Subsidiary (and each of its Subsidiaries) that is a Guarantor immediately

prior to its designation as an Unrestricted Subsidiary shall be automatically released from its Guaranty upon becoming an Unrestricted Subsidiary, and any Liens on such Restricted Subsidiary’s assets securing the Obligations shall be

automatically released upon becoming an Unrestricted Subsidiary.

(iii) Concurrently with any designation made or deemed to be made in

accordance with this Section 7.01(o), the Borrower shall deliver to the applicable

Administrative Agent (which shall distribute to the Lenders) a certificate of an Authorized Officer certifying that (A) the designation or deemed designation satisfies the applicable

conditions set forth in this Section 7.01(o) and (B) the Borrower is in compliance with the Financial Covenants set forth in Article VIII both before and after giving effect to such designation on a pro forma basis.

(iv) Prior to and at all times after designation, the aggregate amount of Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Total Assets of

all Unrestricted Subsidiaries shall not exceed

10.020.0% of Consolidated EBITDA and Consolidated Total Assets of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries. If at any time the Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets of all Unrestricted Subsidiaries in the

aggregate exceeds

10.020.0% of Consolidated EBITDA or Consolidated Total Assets, as applicable, of the Borrower and its Restricted Subsidiaries, the Borrower shall promptly redesignate one or more Unrestricted Subsidiaries as Restricted

Subsidiaries to comply with the thresholds set out in this clause (iv).

125

(p) Lender Meetings. Upon the reasonable request of the Administrative Agents or the Required Lenders (which request, so long as no Event of Default

shall have occurred and be continuing, shall not be made more than once during each fiscal quarter of the Borrower), hold a conference call at such time as may be agreed to by the Borrower and the Administrative Agents or the Required Lenders.

(q) Further Assurances.

(i) Take such action and execute, acknowledge and deliver, and cause each of its Restricted Subsidiaries to take such action and execute,

acknowledge and deliver, at its sole cost and expense, such agreements, instruments or other documents as the AdministrativeCollateral Agent may reasonably require from time to time in order

(A) to subject to valid and perfected first priority Liens (subject to Permitted Liens) any of the Collateral in favor of the Lenders and (B) to establish and maintain the validity and effectiveness of any of the Loan Documents and the

validity, perfection and priority of the Liens (subject to Permitted Liens) intended to be created thereby, subject to the limitations set forth in the last paragraph of Section 7.01(a).

(ii) In furtherance of the foregoing, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law and solely to the extent necessary to effectuate the

foregoing sentence, each Loan Party (A) authorizes the

AdministrativeCollateral

Agent to execute any such agreements, instruments or other documents in such Loan Party’s name and to file such agreements, instruments or other documents in any appropriate filing office

and (B) authorizes the

AdministrativeCollateral

Agent to file any financing statement required hereunder or under any other Loan Document, and any continuation statement or amendment with respect thereto, in any appropriate filing office

without the signature of such Loan Party.

(iii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other

Loan Document, (i) no Excluded Subsidiary shall be required to comply with this Section 7.01(q) and (ii) at Borrower’s written election provided to Administrativethe

Collateral Agent, Borrower may cause any Excluded Subsidiary (including any Excluded Subsidiary that is a Foreign Subsidiary) to become a Loan Party in accordance with the terms of this

Section 7.01(q); provided, that any such Foreign Subsidiary, prior to becoming a Loan Party, must provide Administrativethe Collateral Agent with information required by regulatory authorities

under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including, without limitation, the PATRIOT Act and the Beneficial Ownership Regulation, in each case, to the extent requested by any Administrative Agent or any Lender.

(iv)

Within 45 days (or such longer period of time as the Administrative Agent may

agree to in its sole discretion) after the Closing Date,

(A) cause Turbine Weld Industries, LLC to be

added as a Guarantor pursuant to Section 7.01(b)

and (B) deliver to the Administrative Agent any

stock certificates and stock powers required by the Loan Documents to the extent not currently in possession of the Administrative Agent.

(r)

Federal Assignment of Claims Act. On or before the date which is ninety (90) days from the date of any Government Contract hereafter entered into, extended or renewed by any Loan Party, such Loan Party shall execute all documents

necessary or appropriate to comply with the Assignment of Claims Act of 1940, as amended, 31 U.S.C. Section 3727 and 41 U.S.C. Section 15 (the “Government Contract Assignments”) in connection with each such Government

Contract; however, (i) no Loan Party’s failure to execute and deliver any Government Contract Assignment shall constitute a default, breach or violation of the Loan Party’s obligation(s) set forth in this clause (r)(i),

unless the

AdministrativeCollateral

Agent shall have made written demand upon the Loan Parties to fully and faithfully comply with its obligation(s) with respect to Government Contract Assignments set forth in this

clause (r)(i) above; and (ii) no Government Contract Assignment shall be

126

required for any Government Contract that (A) does not constitute a Material Contract (unless such demand shall be made after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of

Default, in which case Government Contract Assignments can be required by the AdministrativeCollateral Agent for any Government Contract), or (B) has a

remaining term of less than twelve (12) months (with no option to extend). The Loan Parties acknowledge that the AdministrativeCollateral Agent and the Lenders will be irreparably harmed if any Loan

Party fails or refuses to execute and deliver any Government Contract Assignment after the AdministrativeCollateral Agent’s demand therefor, as and when required pursuant

to this clause (r)(i), and that the

AdministrativeCollateral

Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law. In such event, the Loan Parties agree that the

AdministrativeCollateral

Agent shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the

AdministrativeCollateral

Agent or the Lenders, to injunctive or other equitable relief to compel the Loan Parties’ full compliance with the requirements of this clause (r)(i).

Section 7.02 Negative Covenants. So long as any principal of or interest on any

Loan, any Letter of Credit or any other Obligation (whether or not due) shall remain unpaid (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) or any Lender shall have any Commitment hereunder, each Loan Party shall not, and shall not permit any of its

Restricted Subsidiaries to, unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise consent in writing:

(i) Wind-up, liquidate or dissolve, or merge, consolidate or amalgamate with any Person, or permit

any of its Restricted Subsidiaries to do (or agree to do) any of the foregoing; provided, however, that:

(A) any Loan Party

may be merged into any other Loan Party, or may consolidate or amalgamate with any other Loan Party; provided that if the Borrower is a party to such merger, consolidation or amalgamation, then the Borrower shall be the surviving entity,

(B) any Restricted Subsidiary of a Loan Party that is not a Loan Party may be merged into a Loan Party, or may consolidate or amalgamate with

a Loan Party; provided that (I) such Loan Party is the surviving entity and if the Borrower is a party to such merger, consolidation or amalgamation, then the Borrower shall be the surviving entity and (II) all actions reasonably

required by the Required Lenders, including actions required to maintain perfected Liens on the Equity Interests of the surviving entity and other Collateral in favor of Collateral Agent, shall have been completed,

assets (including any Equity Interests) of such winding-up, liquidating or dissolving Loan Party or Restricted Subsidiary are transferred to a Loan Party that is not winding up, liquidating or dissolving,

(E) any Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not a Loan Party (other than any such Restricted Subsidiary the Equity Interests of

which are subject to a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent as security for the Obligations unless the Equity Interests of the transferee of the assets of such winding-up, liquidating or dissolving Restricted

Subsidiary is also subject to a Lien in favor of the Collateral Agent) may wind up, liquidate or dissolve so long as all of the assets of such winding-up, liquidating or dissolving Restricted Subsidiary are

transferred to a Restricted Subsidiary of the Borrower that is not winding-up, liquidating or dissolving,

(F) the Permitted Acquisitions shall be permitted,

(G) Permitted Dispositions shall be permitted, and

(H) the Transactions shall be permitted.

make Permitted Dispositions.

Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary contained in this Agreement, at no time may any Restricted

Subsidiary contribute or otherwise transfer (including by way of an exclusive license) any material Intellectual Property or any Government Contract that is a Material Contract that is owned by such Restricted Subsidiary on the Closing Date to any

Restricted Subsidiary that is not a Loan Party.

Documents in accordance with the instructions of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Loan Documents).

Section 10.04 Reliance. TheEach Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any written

notices, statements, certificates, orders or other documents or any telephone message believed by it in good faith to be genuine and correct and to have been signed, sent or made by the proper Person, and with respect to all matters pertaining to

this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents and its duties hereunder or thereunder, upon advice of counsel selected by it, which may be counsel to the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries.

Section 10.05 Indemnification. To the extent that

theeither Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank is not reimbursed and indemnified by any Loan Party, and whether or not

thesuch

Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank has made demand on any Loan Party for the same, the Lenders will, within five days of written demand by thesuch Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank, reimburse thesuch Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank for and indemnify thesuch Administrative Agent from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses (including client charges and expenses of counsel or any other

advisor to

thesuch

Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank), advances or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against thesuch Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents or any action taken or omitted by thesuch Administrative Agent or Issuing Bank under this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents, in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share, including advances and disbursements made pursuant to Section

10.08; provided, however, that no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses, advances or disbursements for which there has been a

final non-appealable judicial determination that such liability resulted from the applicable Administrative Agent’s or Issuing Bank’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The obligations of the Lenders under this Section 10.05 shall survive the payment in full of the Loans and the

termination of this Agreement.

Section 10.06 Agents Individually. With respect to its Pro Rata Share of the

Commitments hereunder, the Loans made by it and Letters of Credit issued by it, the applicable 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 maker of

a Loan. The terms “Lenders”, “Issuing Bank” or “Required Lenders” or any similar terms shall, unless the context clearly otherwise indicates, include the applicable Administrative Agent in its individual capacity

140

as a Lender, an Issuing Bank, or one of the Required Lenders, as applicable. TheEach Administrative Agent and its Affiliates may accept deposits from,

lend money to, and generally engage in any kind of banking, trust or other business with the Borrower as if it were not acting as an Agent pursuant hereto without any duty to account to the other Lenders or the Issuing Bank.

Section 10.07 Successor Agent. (a) Any Agent may at any time give at least 30 days prior written notice of its

resignation to the Lenders, the Issuing Bank and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, in consultation with the Borrower, to appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a bank, trust

company or other similar financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank, trust company or similar financial institution with an office in the United States. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation

by the Required Lenders, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed nor shall it be required during the existence of an Event of Default), to appoint a

successor Administrative Agent or Collateral Agent, as the case may be, and the Collateral Agent (at the direction of the Required Lenders) shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or

delayed nor shall it be required during the existence of an Event of Default), to appoint a successor Administrative Agent. If no such successor Agent shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment

within 30 days after the retiring Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Agent may (but shall not be

obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders and the Issuing Bank, appoint a successor Agent, which shall be a bank, trust company or other similar financial institution with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank, trust company

or similar financial institution with an office in the United States. Whether or not a successor Agent has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date, (i) the retiring Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder

and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any Collateral held by such Agent on behalf of the Lenders or the Issuing Bank under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until

such time as a successor Agent is appointed) and (ii) all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through such retiring Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender and Issuing Bank directly, until such

time, if any, as a successor Agent shall have been appointed as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s Agent’s appointment as Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights,

powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Agent, and the retiring Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Loan Documents. After the retiring Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the

other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Article, Section 12.04 and Section 12.14 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Agent in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by it while the retiring Agent was

acting as Agent.

Section 10.08 Collateral Matters.

(a) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative

Agents to release any Guarantor which is a Subsidiary of the

Borrower (a “Subsidiary Guarantor”) from its obligations under the Guaranty upon (i) upon such Subsidiary Guarantor ceasing to be a Restricted

Subsidiary of the Borrower or (ii) if such Subsidiary

Guarantor

becomingis an Excluded Subsidiary; provided, however that no such release shall occur pursuant to this

clause (ii) with respect to any Subsidiary Guarantor that

becomes an Excluded Subsidiary as a result of clause (b) of

the definition thereof, unless such release was a result of a disposition of Equity Interests in such Subsidiary Guarantor to a third party Person pursuant to a bona fide

141

transaction and not for the purpose of, or primarily in contemplation of, this clause

(ii). at the time of the

release.

(b) The Lenders hereby irrevocably authorize the Collateral Agent, at its option and in its discretion, to release any Lien granted to or held

by the Collateral Agent upon any Collateral upon termination of the Commitments and payment and satisfaction of all Loans, all LC Exposure and all other Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) in accordance with the terms hereof;

or constituting property being sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of any Loan Party’s business or otherwise in compliance with the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; or constituting property in which the Loan Parties

owned no interest at the time the Lien was granted or at any time thereafter; or if approved, authorized or ratified in writing by the Lenders in accordance with Section 12.02. Upon request by the Collateral Agent at any time, the Lenders will

confirm in writing the Collateral Agent’s authority to release particular types or items of Collateral pursuant to this Section 10.08(b).

(c) Without in any manner limiting the Collateral Agent’s authority to act without any specific or further authorization or consent by

the Lenders (as set forth in Section 10.08(b)), each Lender agrees to confirm in writing, upon request by the Collateral Agent, the authority to release Collateral conferred upon the Collateral Agent under Section 10.08(b). Upon prior

written request by any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent shall (and is hereby irrevocably authorized by the Lenders to) execute such documents as may be necessary or reasonably requested by any Loan Party to evidence the release of the Liens granted

to the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Agents and the Lenders upon such Collateral; provided, however, that (i) the Collateral Agent shall not be required to execute any such document on terms which, in the Collateral

Agent’s opinion, would expose the Collateral Agent to liability or create any obligations or entail any consequence other than the release of such Liens without recourse or warranty, and (ii) such release shall not in any manner

discharge, affect or impair the Obligations or any Lien upon (or obligations of any Loan Party in respect of) all interests in the Collateral retained by any Loan Party.

(d) Anything contained in any of the Loan Documents to the contrary notwithstanding, the Loan Parties, each Agent and each Lender hereby agree

that (i) no Lender shall have any right individually to realize upon any of the Collateral under any Loan Document or to enforce any Guaranty (other than as a result of set-off rights pursuant to

Section 12.05), it being understood and agreed that all powers, rights and remedies under the Loan Documents may be exercised solely by the Collateral Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in accordance with the terms thereof, (ii) in the

event of a foreclosure by the Collateral Agent on any of the Collateral pursuant to a public or private sale, theeither Administrative Agent, the Collateral Agent or any Lender may be

the purchaser of any or all of such Collateral at any such sale and (iii) the Collateral Agent, as agent for and representative of the Agents and the Lenders (but not any other Agent or any Lender or Lenders in its or their respective

individual capacities unless the Required Lenders shall otherwise agree in writing) shall be entitled (either directly or through one or more acquisition vehicles) for the purpose of bidding and making settlement or payment of the purchase price for

all or any portion of the Collateral to be sold (A) at any public or private sale, (B) at any sale conducted by the Collateral Agent under the provisions of the UCC (including pursuant to Sections

9-610 or 9-620 of the UCC), (C) at any sale or foreclosure conducted by the Collateral Agent (whether by judicial action or otherwise) in accordance with applicable law

or (D) any sale conducted pursuant to the provisions of any Debtor Relief Law (including Section 363 of the Bankruptcy Code), to use and apply all or any of the Obligations as a credit on account of the purchase price for any Collateral

payable by the Collateral Agent at such sale.

(e) The Collateral Agent shall have no obligation whatsoever to any Lender to assure

that the Collateral exists or is owned by the Loan Parties or is cared for, protected or insured or has been encumbered or that the Lien granted to the Collateral Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document has been properly or

sufficiently or lawfully created, perfected, protected or enforced or is

142

entitled to any particular priority, or to exercise at all or in any particular manner or under any duty of care, disclosure or fidelity, or to continue exercising, any of the rights, authorities

and powers granted or available to the Collateral Agent in this Section 10.08 or in any other Loan Document, it being understood and agreed that in respect of the Collateral, or any act, omission or event related thereto, the Collateral Agent

may act in any manner it may deem appropriate, in its sole discretion, given the Collateral Agent’s own interest in the Collateral as one of the Lenders and that the Collateral Agent shall have no duty or liability whatsoever to any other

Lender, except as otherwise provided herein.

(f) In furtherance of the foregoing and not in limitation thereof, no arrangements in

respect of Bank Product 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 Bank Product Provider shall be deemed to have appointed the

Revolving Administrative Agent to serve as administrative agent

and the Collateral Agent to serve as 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.

Section 10.09 Agency for Perfection. Each Agent and each Lender hereby appoints each other Agent and each other Lender as agent

and bailee for the purpose of perfecting the security interests in and liens upon the Collateral in assets which, in accordance with Article 9 of the UCC, can be perfected only by possession or control (or where the security interest of a secured

party with possession or control has priority over the security interest of another secured party) and each Agent and each Lender hereby acknowledges that it holds possession of or otherwise controls any such Collateral for the benefit of the Agents

and the Lenders as secured party. Should

theeither Administrative Agent or any Lender obtain possession or control of any such Collateral, thesuch Administrative Agent or such Lender shall notify the Collateral

Agent thereof, and, promptly upon the Collateral Agent’s request therefor shall deliver such Collateral to the Collateral Agent or in accordance with the Collateral Agent’s instructions. In addition, the Collateral Agent shall also have

the power and authority hereunder to appoint such other sub-agents as may be necessary or required under applicable state law or otherwise to perform its duties and enforce its rights with respect to the

Collateral and under the Loan Documents. Each Loan Party by its execution and delivery of this Agreement hereby consents to the foregoing.

Section 10.10 No Reliance on any Agent’s Customer Identification Program.

(a) Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that neither such Lender, nor any of its Affiliates, participants or assignees, may rely on any Agent

to carry out such Lender’s, Affiliate’s, participant’s or assignee’s customer identification program, or other requirements imposed by the USA PATRIOT Act or the regulations issued thereunder, including the regulations set

forth in 31 C.F.R. §§ 1010.100(yy), (iii), 1020.100, and 1020.220 (formerly 31 C.F.R. § 103.121), as hereafter amended or replaced (“CIP Regulations”), or any other anti-terrorism laws, including any programs

involving any of the following items relating to or in connection with any of the Loan Parties, their Affiliates or their agents, the Loan Documents or the transactions hereunder or contemplated hereby: (1) any identity verification procedures,

(2) any recordkeeping, (3) comparisons with government lists, (4) customer notices or (5) other procedures required under the CIP Regulations or other regulations issued under the USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender, Affiliate,

participant or assignee subject to Section 326 of the USA PATRIOT Act will perform the measures necessary to satisfy its own responsibilities under the CIP Regulations.

(b) Each Lender or assignee or participant of a Lender that is not incorporated under the laws of the United States of America or a state

thereof (and is not excepted from the certification requirement contained in Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations because it is both (i) an affiliate of a depository institution or foreign bank that maintains a

physical presence in the

143

United States or foreign country, and (ii) subject to supervision by a banking authority regulating such affiliated depository institution or foreign bank) shall deliver to each Agent the

certification, or, if applicable, recertification, certifying that such Lender is not a “shell” and certifying to other matters as required by Section 313 of the USA PATRIOT Act and the applicable regulations: (A) within ten

(10) days after the Closing Date, and (B) as such other times as are required under the USA PATRIOT Act.

Act requires all financial institutions to obtain, verify and record certain information that identifies individuals or business entities which open an “account” with such financial institution. Consequently, any Agent or Lender may from

time to time request, and each Loan Party shall provide to such Agent or Lender, such Loan Party’s name, address, tax identification number and/or such other identifying information as shall be necessary for such Agent or such Lender to comply

with the USA PATRIOT Act and any other anti-terrorism law.

Section 10.11 No Third-Party Beneficiaries. The provisions of this

Article are solely for the benefit of the Secured Parties, and no Loan Party shall have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

Section 10.12 No Fiduciary Relationship. It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any

other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to any Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter

of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

Section 10.13 Certain ERISA Matters. (a) Each Lender (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a

Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, theeach Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that at least one of the following is

and will be true:

(i) such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of the Plan Asset

Regulations) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with the Loans, the Letters of Credit or the Commitments,

(ii) the

company pooled separate accounts), PTE 91-38 (a class exemption for certain transactions involving bank collective investment funds) or PTE 96-23 (a class exemption for

certain transactions determined by in-house asset managers), is applicable with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of

Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement,

(iii) (A) such Lender is an investment fund managed by a “Qualified

Professional Asset Manager” (within the meaning of Part VI of PTE 84-14), (B) such Qualified Professional Asset Manager made the investment decision on behalf of such Lender to enter into, participate

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

satisfies the requirements of sub-sections (b) through (g) of Part I of PTE 84-14 and (D) to the best knowledge of such Lender, the

144

requirements of subsection (a) of Part I of PTE 84-14 are satisfied with respect to such Lender’s entrance into, participation in,

administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the Commitments and this Agreement, or

(iv) such

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

(b) In addition, unless the immediately preceding clause (a)(i) is true with respect to a Lender or such Lender has

provided another representation, warranty and covenant as provided in the immediately preceding clause (a)(iv), 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,

theeach Administrative Agent, and each Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrower or any other Loan Party, that none of the Administrative

Agents,

nor any Arranger 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 theeither Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

Section 10.14 Credit Bidding. The Secured Parties hereby irrevocably authorize theeach 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) theeach 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 theeach 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)

theeach

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) theeach Administrative Agent shall be authorized to adopt documents providing for the governance of the acquisition vehicle or vehicles (provided that any actions by the applicable 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 12.02 of this Agreement), (iv) the applicable 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

145

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 is 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 applicable 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.

Section 10.15 Collateral Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In case of the pendency of any proceeding under

any Debtor Relief Law or any other judicial proceeding relative to any Loan Party, the Collateral Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan or LC Exposure shall then be due and payable as herein expressed or by declaration or

otherwise and irrespective of whether any Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered (but not obligated) by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans 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 Secured Parties (including any claim for the compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Secured

Parties and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Secured Parties hereunder and under the other Loan Documents) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by

each Secured Party to make such payments to the Collateral Agent and, in the event that the Collateral Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Secured Parties, to pay to the Collateral Agent any amount due for the

reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Collateral Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amounts due the Collateral Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents.

Section 10.16 Posting of Communications. (a) The Borrower agrees that thesuch Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders and the Issuing Banks by posting the Communications on IntraLinks™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by thesuch 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 applicable Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the Closing 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, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the distribution of material

Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution.

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

THEEITHER ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY ARRANGER 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 THESUCH 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

applicable Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank by

means of electronic communications pursuant to this Section, including through an Approved Electronic Platform.

(d) Each Lender

and each 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 applicable 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, each of the Issuing Banks and the Borrower agrees that

thesuch 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 theeach Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies.

(f) Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of

theeach Administrative Agent, any Lender or any Issuing Bank to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Loan Document in any other manner specified in such Loan Document.

Section 10.17 Erroneous Payments.

147

(a) If

theany Administrative Agent notifies a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party (any such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or

other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that such Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under Section 10.17(b)) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from

such Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were

erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, Issuing Bank, Secured Party or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a

payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such

Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of such Administrative Agent, and such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in

no event later than two Business Days thereafter, return to such Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of

each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to

such Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater

of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate determined by such Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of

such Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under

this Section 10.17(a) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Without limiting the provisions of

Section 10.17(a), each Payment Recipient hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or

otherwise) from such 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, prepayment or repayment sent by

such Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with

respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by

such Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or

(z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case:

(i) (A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent

written confirmation from such Administrative Agent to the

contrary) or (B) in the case of immediately preceding clause (z), an error has been made, in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii) such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to)

promptly (and, in all events, within one Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify such Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying such Administrative Agent pursuant to this

Section 10.17(b).

(c) Each Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party hereby authorizes each Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts

at any time owing to such Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by

such Administrative Agent to such Lender, Issuing Bank or

Secured Party under any Loan Document, against any amount due to such Administrative Agent under Section 10.17(a) or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

148

(d) In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by any Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by

such Administrative Agent in accordance with

Section 10.17(a), from any Lender or Issuing Bank that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective

behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon such

Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or Issuing Bank at any time, (i) such Lender or Issuing Bank shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) of the

relevant Class with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as such Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans

(but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by such Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together

with Borrower) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or Issuing Bank shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to Borrower or such Administrative Agent, (ii) such Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed

to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such deemed acquisition, such

Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or

assigning Issuing Bank shall cease to be a Lender or Issuing Bank, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of

this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning Issuing Bank and

(iv) such Administrative Agent may reflect in the

Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment

Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or Issuing Bank shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and

such Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights,

remedies and claims against such Lender or Issuing Bank (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or

Issuing Bank and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that such Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired

pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether such Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, such Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender, Issuing Bank or Secured Party under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return

Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

(e) The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment

shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower or any other Loan Party, except, in each case, to the extent such Erroneous Payment is, and solely with respect to the amount of such Erroneous Payment

that is, comprised of funds received by the applicable

Administrative Agent from the Borrower or any other Loan Party for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f) To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby

waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the applicable Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous

Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

149

(g) Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this

Section 10.17 shall survive the resignation or replacement of any Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or Issuing Bank, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all

Obligations (or any portion thereof).

ARTICLE XI

GUARANTY

Section 11.01 Guaranty.

(a) Each Guarantor hereby jointly and severally and unconditionally and irrevocably guarantees the punctual payment when due, whether at

stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, of all Obligations of the Borrower now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document or any Bank Product Agreements, whether for principal, interest (including all interest that accrues after the

commencement of any Insolvency Proceeding of the Borrower, whether or not a claim for post-filing interest is allowed in such Insolvency Proceeding), LC Exposure, Bank Product Obligations, fees, commissions, expense reimbursements, indemnifications

or otherwise (such obligations, to the extent not paid by the Borrower, being the “Guaranteed Obligations”), and agrees to pay any and all expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket counsel fees and expenses) incurred by the Secured Parties (or any of them) in enforcing any rights under the guaranty set forth in this Article XI.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, each Guarantor’s liability shall extend to all amounts that constitute part of the

applicable Guaranteed Obligations and would be owed by the Borrower to the Secured Parties (as applicable) under any Loan Document but for the fact that they are unenforceable or not allowable due to the existence of an Insolvency Proceeding

involving the Borrower. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, Guaranteed Obligations shall not include any Excluded Hedge Liabilities. In no event shall the obligation of any Guarantor hereunder exceed the maximum amount such Guarantor could

guarantee under any Debtor Relief Law.

Section 11.02 Guaranty Absolute. Each Guarantor jointly and severally guarantees that

the Guaranteed Obligations will be paid strictly in accordance with the terms of the Loan Documents, regardless of any law, regulation or order now or hereafter in effect in any jurisdiction affecting any of such terms or the rights of the Secured

Parties with respect thereto. Each Guarantor agrees that this Article XI constitutes a guaranty of payment when due and not of collection and waives any right to require that any resort be made by any Secured Party to any Collateral. The obligations

of each Guarantor under this Article XI are independent of the Guaranteed Obligations, and a separate action or actions may be brought and prosecuted against each Guarantor to enforce such obligations, irrespective of whether any action is brought

against any Loan Party or whether any Loan Party is joined in any such action or actions. The liability of each Guarantor under this Article XI shall be irrevocable, absolute and unconditional irrespective of, and each Guarantor hereby irrevocably

waives any defenses it may now or hereafter have in any way relating to, any or all of the following:

(a) any lack of validity or

enforceability of any Loan Document or any agreement or instrument relating thereto;

(b) any change in the time, manner or place of

payment of, or in any other term of, all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations, or any other amendment or waiver of or any consent to departure from any Loan Document, including any increase in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from the extension

of additional credit to any Loan Party or otherwise;

150

of any Collateral, or any taking, release or amendment or waiver of or consent to departure from any other guaranty, for all or any of the Guaranteed Obligations;

(d) the existence of any claim, set-off, defense or other right that any Guarantor may have at any

time against any Person, including any Secured Party;

(e) any change, restructuring or termination of the corporate, limited liability

company or partnership structure or existence of any Loan Party; or

(f) any other circumstance (including any statute of limitations) or

any existence of or reliance on any representation by the Secured Parties that might otherwise constitute a defense available to, or a discharge of, any Loan Party or any other guarantor or surety.

This Article XI shall continue to be effective or be reinstated, as the case may be, if at any time any payment of any of the Guaranteed Obligations is

rescinded or must otherwise be returned by Secured Parties or any other Person upon the insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, all as though such payment had not been made.

Section 11.03 Waiver. Each Guarantor hereby waives (i) promptness and diligence, (ii) notice of acceptance and any other

notice with respect to any of the Guaranteed Obligations and this Article XI and any requirement that the Secured Parties exhaust any right or take any action against any Loan Party or any other Person or any Collateral, (iii) any right to

compel or direct any Secured Party to seek payment or recovery of any amounts owed under this Article XI from any one particular fund or source or to exhaust any right or take any action against any other Loan Party, any other Person or any

Collateral, (iv) any requirement that any Secured Party protect, secure, perfect or insure any security interest or Lien on any property subject thereto or exhaust any right to take any action against any Loan Party, any other Person or any

Collateral, and (v) any other defense available to any Guarantor (other than a defense of payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations)). Each Guarantor agrees that the Secured Parties shall have no

obligation to marshal any assets in favor of any Guarantor or against, or in payment of, any or all of the Obligations. Each Guarantor acknowledges that it will receive direct and indirect benefits from the financing arrangements contemplated herein

and that the waiver set forth in this Section 11.03 is knowingly made in contemplation of such benefits. Each Guarantor hereby waives any right to revoke this Article XI, and acknowledges that this Article XI is continuing in nature and applies

to all Guaranteed Obligations, whether existing now or in the future.

Section 11.04 Continuing Guaranty; Assignments. This

Article XI is a continuing guaranty and shall (a) remain in full force and effect until the later of the cash payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this

Article XI and the Final Maturity Date, (b) be binding upon each Guarantor, its successors and assigns and (c) inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Secured Parties and their successors, pledgees, transferees and assigns.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing clause (c), any Lender may pledge, assign or otherwise transfer all or any portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement (including all or any portion of its Commitments and its

Loans and the LC Exposure owing to it) to any other Person, and such other Person shall thereupon become vested with all the benefits in respect thereof granted such Lender herein or otherwise, in each case as provided in Section 12.07.

Section 11.05 Subrogation. No Guarantor will exercise any rights that it may now or hereafter acquire against any Loan Party or

any other guarantor that arise from the existence, payment, performance or enforcement of such Guarantor’s obligations under this Article XI, including any right of subrogation, reimbursement, exoneration, contribution or indemnification and

any right to participate in

151

any claim or remedy of the Secured Parties against any Loan Party or any other guarantor or any Collateral, whether or not such claim, remedy or right arises in equity or under contract, statute

or common law, including the right to take or receive from any Loan Party or any other guarantor, directly or indirectly, in cash or other property or by set-off or in any other manner, payment or security

solely on account of such claim, remedy or right, unless and until all of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent Indemnity Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Article XI shall have been paid in full in cash and the Final

Maturity Date shall have occurred. If any amount shall be paid to any Guarantor in violation of the immediately preceding sentence at any time prior to the later of the payment in full in cash of the Guaranteed Obligations (other than Contingent

Indemnity Obligations) and all other amounts payable under this Article XI and the Final Maturity Date, such amount shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Secured Parties and shall forthwith be paid to the Secured Parties to be credited and

applied to the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under this Article XI, whether matured or unmatured, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, or to be held as Collateral for any Guaranteed Obligations or other amounts

payable under this Article XI thereafter arising. If (i) any Guarantor shall make payment to the Secured Parties of all or any part of the Guaranteed Obligations, (ii) all of the Guaranteed Obligations and all other amounts payable under

this Article XI shall be paid in full in cash and (iii) the Final Maturity Date shall have occurred, the Secured Parties will, at such Guarantor’s request and expense, execute and deliver to such Guarantor appropriate documents, without

recourse and without representation or warranty, necessary to evidence the transfer by subrogation to such Guarantor of an interest in the Guaranteed Obligations resulting from such payment by such Guarantor. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary

contained in this Section 11.05, no Guarantor shall exercise any rights of subrogation, contribution, indemnity, reimbursement or other similar rights against, and shall not proceed or seek recourse against or with respect to any property or

asset of, any Loan Party (including after payment in full of the Guaranteed Obligations and any other amounts payable under this Article or after termination of the Commitments) if all or any portion of the Obligations shall have been satisfied in

connection with an exercise of remedies in respect of the Equity Interests of such Loan Party whether pursuant to the Security Agreement or otherwise.

Section 11.06 Contribution. All Guarantors desire to allocate among themselves, in a fair and equitable manner, their obligations

arising under this Guaranty. Accordingly, in the event any payment or distribution is made on any date by a Guarantor under this Guaranty such that its Aggregate Payments exceeds its Fair Share as of such date, such Guarantor shall be entitled

to a contribution from each of the other Guarantors in an amount sufficient to cause each Guarantor’s Aggregate Payments to equal its Fair Share as of such date. “Fair Share” means, with respect to any Guarantor as of

any date of determination, an amount equal to (a) the ratio of (i) the Fair Share Contribution Amount with respect to such Guarantor, to (ii) the aggregate of the Fair Share Contribution Amounts with respect to all Guarantors

multiplied by, (b) the aggregate amount paid or distributed on or before such date by all Guarantors under this Guaranty in respect of the obligations guaranteed. “Fair Share Contribution Amount” means, with respect to

any Guarantor as of any date of determination, the maximum aggregate amount of the obligations of such Guarantor under this Guaranty that would not render its obligations hereunder subject to avoidance as a fraudulent transfer or conveyance under

Section 548 of Title 11 of the United States Code or any comparable applicable provisions of state law; provided, solely for purposes of calculating the “Fair Share Contribution Amount” with respect to any Guarantor for

purposes of this Section 11.06, any assets or liabilities of such Guarantor arising by virtue of any rights to subrogation, reimbursement or indemnification or any rights to or obligations of contribution hereunder shall not be considered as

assets or liabilities of such Guarantor. “Aggregate Payments” means, with respect to any Guarantor as of any date of determination, an amount equal to (A) the aggregate amount of all payments and distributions made on or

before such date by such Guarantor in respect of this Guaranty (including in respect of this Section 11.06), minus (B) the aggregate amount of all payments received on or before such date by such Guarantor from the other Guarantors

as contributions under this Section 11.06. The amounts payable as contributions hereunder shall be determined as of the date on which the related payment or distribution is made by the applicable Guarantor. The allocation among Guarantors

of their obligations as set forth in this Section

152

11.06 shall not be construed in any way to limit the liability of any Guarantor hereunder. Each Guarantor is a third party beneficiary to the contribution agreement set forth in this

Section 11.06.

agreement of all of the Lenders or any Lender affected thereby, and a Lender other than the Collateral Agent and theeach Administrative Agent and their respective Affiliates and Related

Funds (the “Holdout Lender”) fails to give its consent, authorization, or agreement, then the Borrower, upon at least 5 Business Days prior irrevocable notice to the Holdout Lender, may permanently replace the Holdout Lender with

one or more substitute lenders (each, a “Replacement Lender”), and the Holdout Lender shall have no right to refuse to be replaced hereunder. Such notice to replace the Holdout Lender shall specify an effective date for such

replacement, which date shall not be later than 15 Business Days after the date such notice is given. Prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender and each Replacement Lender shall execute and deliver an Assignment and

Acceptance, subject only to the Holdout Lender being repaid its share of the outstanding Obligations without any premium or penalty of any kind

whatsoever; provided, that

to the extent that any Lender is replaced pursuant to this clause (b) in connection with a Repricing Transaction requiring payment of a fee pursuant to Section 2.06(d), the Borrower shall pay to each Lender being replaced as a result of such Repricing Transaction the fee set

forth in Section 2.06(d). If the Holdout Lender

shall refuse or fail to execute and deliver any such Assignment and Acceptance prior to the effective date of such replacement, the Holdout Lender shall be deemed to have

156

executed and delivered such Assignment and Acceptance. The replacement of any Holdout Lender shall be made in accordance with the terms of Section 12.07. Until such time as the Replacement

Lenders shall have acquired all of the Obligations, the Commitments, and the other rights and obligations of the Holdout Lender hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the Holdout Lender shall remain obligated to make its Pro Rata Share of

Loans.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein and for the avoidance of doubt, (i) at theeach Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion, any written consent, amendment, or waiver contemplated by Section 12.02 may include a consent, amendment, or waiver made via

electronic mail with appropriate confirmations or agreements from the recipients or senders of such consent, amendment, or waiver, as applicable, so long as the

applicable Administrative Agent has expressly agreed in

writing (including via electronic mail) that such electronic mail constitutes a consent, amendment or waiver, as applicable, hereunder, (ii) each of the parties hereto acknowledges and agrees that the process with respect to executing,

negotiating, delivering and/or obtaining amendments, consents, or waivers hereunder or under any Loan Document may be expensive with respect to attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses and the applicable parties negotiating any such amendments,

consents, or waivers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to minimize such attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses, including, without limitation, by executing, negotiating, delivering and/or obtaining any such amendments, consents, or

waivers via electronic mail as contemplated by the foregoing clause (i) of this sentence, and (iii) any such amendment, consent, or waiver made via electronic mail in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this sentence shall be

deemed a “Loan Document” so long as identified and acknowledged and agreed to as such by the parties to such amendment, consent, or waiver.

Section 12.03 No Waiver; Remedies, Etc. No failure on the part of any Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in

exercising, any right hereunder or under any other Loan Document shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right under any Loan Document preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any

other right. The rights and remedies of the Agents and the Lenders provided herein and in the other Loan Documents are cumulative and are in addition to, and not exclusive of, any rights or remedies provided by law. The rights of the Agents and the

Lenders under any Loan Document against any party thereto are not conditional or contingent on any attempt by the Agents and the Lenders to exercise any of their rights under any other Loan Document against such party or against any other Person.

(30) days after receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice therefor, all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, costs and expenses incurred by or on behalf of

(k) any Environmental Liabilities and Costs (x) incurred as permitted hereunder in connection with the investigation, removal, cleanup

and/or remediation of any Hazardous Materials present or arising out of the operations of any facility, (y) incurred in connection with any Environmental Lien or (z) otherwise related to any Loan Party, or

(l) the receipt by any Agent or any Lender of any advice from any accountants, auditors, appraisers, advisors or consultants with respect to

any of the foregoing,

in each case, unless such fees, costs or expenses result from (1) the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of

such Agent or such Lender, as determined by a final and non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction, or (2) any proceeding, claim or counterclaim brought by any Agent or any Lender

against another Agent or Lender (other than any proceeding, claim or counterclaim against theeither Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in their respective

capacities as such; provided, however that the foregoing to the contrary notwithstanding, no Loan Party shall have any obligation to any Agent under this Section 12.04 with respect to any Environmental Liabilities and Costs

(x) that a court of competent jurisdiction finally determines to have resulted from the gross negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct of such Agent or its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, or agents; (y) which arise after any

Lender has taken title to or possession of any Real Property of any Loan Party, whether by foreclosure, deed-in-

158

lieu thereof or otherwise or (z) that are attributable solely to acts of any of the Agents. Without limitation, (x) the Borrower agrees to pay all broker fees that may become due in

connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and (y) if the Borrower fails to perform any covenant or agreement contained herein or in any other Loan Document, any Agent may itself perform or

cause performance of such covenant or agreement, and the expenses of such Agent incurred in connection therewith shall be reimbursed within 15 Business Days by the Borrower. This Section 12.04 shall not apply to Taxes (other than Taxes that

represent losses, claims, damages, etc., arising from any non-Tax claim). The obligations of the Borrower under this Section 12.04 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and discharge of any Liens

granted under the Loan Documents.

and during the continuance of any Event of Default, any Agent, any Lender or any Affiliate of any Lender may, and is hereby authorized to, at any time and from time to time, without notice to any Loan Party (any such notice being expressly waived by

Indebtedness at any time owing by such Agent, such Lender or such Affiliate to or for the credit or the account of any Loan Party against any and all Obligations of the Loan Parties either now or hereafter existing under any Loan Document,

validity of such set-off and application. The rights of the Agents, the Lenders and the Affiliates of the Lenders under this Section 12.05 are in addition to the other rights and remedies (including other

rights of set-off) which the Agents, the Lenders and the Affiliates of the Lenders may have under this Agreement or any other Loan Documents of law or otherwise.

Section 12.06 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to

such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining portions hereof or affecting the validity or enforceability of such provision in any other jurisdiction.

Section 12.07 Assignments and Participations.

(a) This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party and each Agent and each

Lender and their respective successors and assigns; provided, however, that none of the Loan Parties may assign, delegate or otherwise transfer any of its rights hereunder or under the other Loan Documents without the prior written

consent of the applicable Administrative Agent and each Lender and

any such assignment without the Lenders’ prior written consent shall be null and void.

Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender, (B) in connection with any assignment of Revolving Commitments or Revolving Loans, to a Revolving Lender, an Affiliate of such Lender or a Related Fund of such Lender, or

(C) if such assignment is in connection with any merger, consolidation, sale, transfer, or other disposition of all or any substantial portion of the business or loan portfolio of such Lender; provided further, that the written

consent of the Borrower (1) shall not be required during the existence of a Specified Event of Default (other than with respect to an assignment to a Defaulting Lender or a natural Person) and (2) shall be deemed given (other than with

(ii) The parties to each such assignment shall execute and

deliver to the applicable Administrative Agent, for its

acceptance, an Assignment and Acceptance, together with any promissory note subject to such assignment and such parties shall deliver to the

applicable Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the

applicable Administrative Agent, a processing and

recordation fee of $3,500; and

(iii) No such assignment shall be made to (A) any Loan Party or any of their Affiliates,

(B) any Defaulting Lender or any of its Affiliates, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (B), or (C) a natural Person (or a holding company,

investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated by or for the primary benefit of a natural Person).

(d) Upon such execution,

delivery and acceptance, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance and recordation on the Register, which effective date shall be at least 3 Business Days after the delivery thereof to the applicable Administrative Agent (or such shorter period as shall be

agreed to by the applicable Administrative Agent and the

parties to such assignment), (A) the assignee thereunder shall become a “Lender” hereunder and, in addition to the rights and obligations hereunder held by it immediately prior to such effective date, have the rights and obligations

Acceptance, relinquish its rights and be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance covering all or the remaining portion of an assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this

Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto).

(e) By executing and delivering an Assignment and Acceptance, the

assigning Lender and the assignee thereunder confirm to and agree with each other and the other parties hereto as follows: (i) other than as provided in such Assignment and Acceptance, the assigning Lender makes no

160

the execution, legality, validity, enforceability, genuineness, sufficiency or value of this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished pursuant hereto; (ii) the assigning Lender makes no representation or warranty and assumes no

responsibility with respect to the financial condition of any Loan Party or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries or the performance or observance by any Loan Party of any of its obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document furnished

pursuant hereto; (iii) such assignee confirms that it has received a copy of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, together with such other documents and information it has deemed appropriate to make its own credit analysis and decision

to enter into such Assignment and Acceptance; (iv) such assignee will, independently and without reliance upon the assigning Lender, any Agent or any Lender and based on such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time,

continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (v) such assignee appoints and authorizes the Agents to take such action as agents on its behalf and to exercise such

powers under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents as are delegated to the Agents by the terms hereof and thereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental hereto and thereto; and (vi) such assignee agrees that it will

perform in accordance with their terms all of the obligations which by the terms of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are required to be performed by it as a Lender.

(f) (i) The

applicable Administrative Agent shall, acting solely for this

purpose as an agent of the Borrower, maintain, or cause to be maintained at the Payment Office, a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance delivered to and accepted by it and a register (the “Register”) for the recordation of the

names and addresses of the Lenders and the Commitments of, and the principal amount of the Loans (and stated interest thereon) and LC Exposure owing to each Lender from time to time. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive and binding for

all purposes, absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Agents and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection

by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(ii) [reserved].

(iii) This Section 12.07 shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the

meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations.

(g) Upon receipt

by the applicable Administrative Agent of a completed Assignment

and Acceptance, and subject to any consent required from the applicable Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 12.07(b) (which consent of the

applicable Administrative Agent must be evidenced by the

applicable Administrative Agent’s execution of an

acceptance to such Assignment and Acceptance), the applicable

Administrative Agent shall accept such assignment, record the information contained therein in the Register (as adjusted to reflect any principal payments on or amounts capitalized and added to

the principal balance of the Loans and/or Commitment reductions made subsequent to the effective date of the applicable assignment, as confirmed in writing by the corresponding assignor and assignee in conjunction with delivery of the assignment to

the applicable Administrative Agent) and provide to the

Collateral Agent a copy of the fully executed Assignment and Acceptance.

(h) A Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing

the same) may be assigned or sold in whole or in part only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any assignment or sale of all or part of such Loan (and the registered note,

if any, evidencing the same) may be effected only by registration of such assignment or sale on the Register, together with the surrender of the registered note, if any, evidencing the same duly endorsed by

161

(or accompanied by a written instrument of assignment or sale duly executed by) the holder of such registered note, whereupon, at the request of the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s), one

or more new registered notes in the same aggregate principal amount shall be issued to the designated assignee(s) or transferee(s). Prior to the registration of assignment or sale of any Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same),

the Agents shall treat the Person in whose name such Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the same) is registered on the Register as the owner thereof for the purpose of receiving all payments thereon, notwithstanding notice to the

contrary.

(i) In the event that any Lender (or an Affiliate or Related Fund) sells participations in a Loan, such Lender shall, acting

for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent on behalf of the Borrower, maintain, or cause to be maintained, a register, on which it enters the name of all participants in the Loans held by it (or such Affiliate

or Related Fund) and the principal amount (and stated interest thereon) of the portion of the Loan that is the subject of the participation (the “Participant Register”). A Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing the

same) may be participated in whole or in part only by registration of such participation on the Participant Register (and each registered note shall expressly so provide). Any participation of such Loan (and the registered note, if any, evidencing

the same) may be effected only by the registration of such participation on the Participant Register. The Participant Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender at any reasonable time and from time to time upon

reasonable prior notice. This Section 12.07 shall be construed so that all Loans are at all times maintained in “registered form” within the meaning of Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United

States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender 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 applicable

Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(j) Any assignee or other Transferee who purchases or is assigned or participates in any portion of a Loan, whether as an assignee, an

Affiliate, a Related Fund or a participant, shall comply with Section 2.09(d) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.09(d) shall, to the extent permissible, be delivered to the Lender if such Person is an

Affiliate, a Related Fund or a participant, except the Lender shall, to the extent subject to Requirements of Law, provide any such documentation that it receives to the

applicable Administrative Agent and Borrower pursuant to

Section 2.09(d)) promptly after reasonable request therefor.

(k) Each Lender may sell participations to one or more banks or

other entities in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents (including all or a portion of its Commitments and the Loans made by it and its Pro Rata Share of the LC Exposure);

provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement (including its Commitments hereunder) and the other Loan Documents shall remain unchanged; (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties

hereto for the performance of such obligations, and the Borrower, the Agents 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 and the

other Loan Documents; and (iii) a participant shall not be entitled to require such Lender to take or omit to take any action hereunder except (A) action directly effecting an extension of the maturity dates or decrease in the principal

amount of the Loans and LC Exposure, (B) action directly effecting an extension of the due dates or a decrease in the rate of interest payable on the Loans or the fees payable under this Agreement, or (C) actions directly effecting a

release of all or a substantial portion of the Collateral or any Loan Party (except as set forth in Section 10.08 of this Agreement or any other Loan Document). The Loan Parties agree that each participant shall be entitled to the benefits of

Section 2.09 and Section 2.10 of this Agreement (subject to the obligations and limitations therein and the obligations and limitations in Section 2.12) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 2.09(e)

shall be delivered to the participating Lender, except the Lender shall, to the

162

extent permissible, subject to Requirements of Law, provide any such documentation that it receives to the applicable Administrative Agent and Borrower pursuant to

Section 2.09(d) promptly after reasonable request therefor) with respect to its participation in any portion of the Commitments and the Loans as if it was a Lender; provided that such participant shall not be entitled to receive any

greater payment under Section 2.09 (Taxes) or Section 2.10 (Increased Costs and Reduced Return), 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.

(l) 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 any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank or other central bank or loans made to such Lender pursuant to securitization or similar credit facility

(a “Securitization”); provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto. The Loan

Parties shall cooperate with such Lender and its Affiliates to effect the Securitization, including by providing such information as may be reasonably requested by such Lender in connection with the rating of its Loans or the Securitization.

(m) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the

contrary (including, without limitation, Section 4.02), the Borrower or any of its Restricted Subsidiaries may, at

any time and from time to time, make open market purchases (including on a non-pro rata basis) of Term Loans (each, an “Open Market Purchase”), so long as the following conditions are satisfied:

(i) immediately and automatically, without any further action on the part of the Borrower, any Lender, any Agent or any other Person, upon the

effectiveness of such assignment of Loans from a Lender to the Borrower, such Loans and all rights and obligations as a Lender related thereto shall, for all purposes under this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and otherwise, be deemed to be

irrevocably prepaid, terminated, extinguished, cancelled and of no further force and effect and the Borrower shall neither obtain nor have any rights as a Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents by virtue of such assignment;

(ii) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing before or immediately after giving effect to such assignment;

(iii) With respect to all purchases of Term Loans made pursuant to this clause (m), (x) the Borrower or such Restricted Subsidiary

shall pay on the settlement date of each such purchase all accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on the purchased Term Loans up to the settlement date of such purchase (except to the extent otherwise set forth in the relevant purchase documents as

agreed by the respective selling Lender) and (y) such purchases (and the payments made therefor and the cancellation of the purchased Term Loans, in each case in connection therewith) shall not constitute voluntary or mandatory payments. At the

time of purchases of Term Loans pursuant to any Open Market Purchase, the then remaining scheduled amortization payments shall be reduced by the aggregate principal amount (taking the face amount thereof) of Term Loans repurchased pursuant to such

Open Market Purchase, with such reduction to be applied to such scheduled payments on a pro rata basis (based on the then remaining principal amount of each such scheduled payments); and

(iv) no proceeds of the Revolving Loans may be used to purchase Term Loans.

Section 12.08 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts and by different parties hereto in

separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an

163

executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopier or electronic mail shall be equally as effective as delivery of an original executed counterpart of this Agreement. Any party delivering an

executed counterpart of this Agreement by telecopier or electronic mail also shall deliver an original executed counterpart of this Agreement but the failure to deliver an original executed counterpart shall not affect the validity, enforceability,

and binding effect of this Agreement. The foregoing shall apply to each other Loan Document mutatis mutandis.

Section 12.09

PARTY IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY EXPRESSLY AND IRREVOCABLY WAIVES, TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ANY OBJECTION WHICH IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE JURISDICTION OR LAYING OF VENUE OF ANY SUCH LITIGATION

LEGAL PROCESS (WHETHER THROUGH SERVICE OR NOTICE, ATTACHMENT PRIOR TO JUDGMENT, ATTACHMENT IN AID OF EXECUTION OR OTHERWISE) WITH RESPECT TO ITSELF OR ITS PROPERTY, EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY WAIVES SUCH IMMUNITY IN RESPECT OF ITS

OBLIGATIONS UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND THE OTHER LOAN DOCUMENTS.

OTHERWISE, THAT ANY SUCH PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM, SEEK TO ENFORCE THE FOREGOING WAIVERS. EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THIS PROVISION IS A MATERIAL INDUCEMENT FOR THE OTHER PARTIES HERETO

Section 12.12 [Reserved.]

Section 12.13 Reinstatement; Certain Payments. If any claim is ever made upon any Secured Party for repayment or recovery of any

amount or amounts received by such Secured Party in payment or on account of any of the Obligations, such Secured Party shall give prompt notice of such claim to each other Agent and Lender and the Borrower, and if such Secured Party repays all or

part of such amount by reason of (i) any judgment, decree or order of any court or administrative body having jurisdiction over such Secured Party or any of its property, or (ii) any good faith settlement or compromise of any such claim

effected by such Secured Party with any such claimant, then and in such event each Loan Party agrees that (A) any such judgment, decree, order, settlement or compromise shall be binding upon it notwithstanding the cancellation of any

Indebtedness hereunder or under the other Loan Documents or the termination of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, and (B) it shall be and remain liable to such Secured Party hereunder for the amount so repaid or recovered to the same

extent as if such amount had never originally been received by such Secured Party.

Section 12.14 Indemnification; Limitation of

Liability for Certain Damages.

(a) In addition to each Loan Party’s other Obligations under this Agreement, the Borrower agrees

to indemnify and hold harmless each Secured Party and all of their respective Affiliates, successors and permitted assigns and their officers, directors, employees, advisors, and agents and members of each of the foregoing (collectively called

the “Indemnitees”) from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, obligations, penalties, fees, reasonable and documented

out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable and documented out-of-pocket

attorneys’ fees, costs and expenses of one primary outside counsel and one firm of local counsel to the Indemnitees (taken as a whole) in each relevant material jurisdiction (which may include a single counsel acting in multiple jurisdictions)

(and, in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest where the Indemnitee affected by such conflict informs the Borrower of such conflict in writing and thereafter retains its own counsel, another firm of counsel to each group of

affected Indemnitees similarly situated taken as a whole)) incurred by such Indemnitees, whether prior to or from and after the Closing Date, whether direct, indirect or consequential, as a result of or arising from or relating to or in connection

with any of the following: (i) the structuring, arrangement and syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein, as well as the negotiation, preparation, execution or performance or enforcement of this Agreement, any other Loan

Document or of any other document executed in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, (ii) any Agent’s or any Lender’s furnishing of funds to the Borrower or the Issuing Bank’s issuing of Letters of

Credit for the account of the Borrower under this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, including the management of any such Loans or the LC Exposure or the Borrower’s use of the proceeds thereof, (iii) the Agents and the Lenders relying

on any instructions of the Borrower or the handling of the Loan Account and Collateral of the Borrower as herein provided, (iv) any matter relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents or by

any document executed in connection with the transactions

165

contemplated by this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or (v) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether brought by a third party or by

any Loan Party or any Subsidiary thereof, and regardless of whether any Indemnitee is a party thereto (collectively, the “Indemnified Matters”); provided, however, that the Loan Parties shall not have any

obligation to any Indemnitee under this subsection (a) for any Indemnified Matter (x) caused by the gross negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee, as determined by a final

non-appealable judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction or (y) arising from any proceeding, claim or counterclaim that does not involve or arise from an act or omission by the Borrower or Guarantors

or any of their respective Affiliates and is brought by any Indemnitee against another Indemnitee (other than any proceeding, claim or counterclaim against any Arranger,

theany Administrative Agent or the Collateral Agent in their respective capacity as such). This Section 12.14 shall not apply to Taxes (other than Taxes that represent losses, claims, damages, etc., arising from

any non-Tax claim).

(b) The indemnification for all of the foregoing losses, damages,

fees, costs and expenses of the Indemnitees set forth in this Section 12.14 are chargeable against the Loan Account. To the extent that the undertaking to indemnify, pay and hold harmless set forth in this Section 12.14 may be

unenforceable because it is violative of any law or public policy, each Loan Party shall, jointly and severally, contribute the maximum portion which it is permitted to pay and satisfy under applicable law, to the payment and satisfaction of all

Indemnified Matters incurred by the Indemnitees.

Loan Document, in no event shall (i) any Indemnitee or (ii) the Borrower and any of its Restricted Subsidiaries be liable on any theory of liability for any special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or

actual damages) (whether or not the claim therefor is based on contract, tort or duty imposed by any applicable legal requirement) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any other agreement or

instrument contemplated hereby or thereby, the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof, whether or not known or unknown, except any indemnity or reimbursement obligations hereunder in respect of any

losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses incurred or paid by a Indemnitee to a third party.

(d) The indemnities and waivers set

forth in this Section 12.14 shall survive the repayment of the Obligations and discharge of any Liens granted under the Loan Documents.

Section 12.15 Records. The unpaid principal of and interest on the Loans, the interest rate or rates applicable to such unpaid

principal and interest, the duration of such applicability, the Commitments, and the accrued and unpaid fees payable pursuant to Section 2.06 hereof, including the fees set forth in the Fee Letter, shall at all times be ascertained from the

records of the Agents, which shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error.

Section 12.16 Binding Effect. This

Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender and when the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5.01 hereof have been satisfied or waived in writing by the Agents, and

thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of each Loan Party, each Agent and each Lender, and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Loan Parties shall not have the right to assign their rights hereunder or any

interest herein without the prior written consent of each Agent and each Lender, and any assignment by any Lender shall be governed by Section 12.07 hereof.

Section 12.17 Highest Lawful Rate. It is the intention of the parties hereto that each Agent and each Lender shall conform

strictly to usury laws applicable to it. Accordingly, if the transactions contemplated hereby or by any other Loan Document would be usurious as to any Agent or any Lender under laws applicable to it (including the laws of the United States of

America and the State of New York

166

or any other jurisdiction whose laws may be mandatorily applicable to such Agent or such Lender notwithstanding the other provisions of this Agreement), then, in that event, notwithstanding

anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document or any agreement entered into in connection with or as security for the Obligations, it is agreed as follows: (i) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes

interest under law applicable to any Agent or any Lender that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received by such Agent or such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document or agreements or otherwise in connection with the

Obligations shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, any excess shall be canceled automatically and if theretofore paid shall be credited by such Agent or such Lender on the principal amount of the

Obligations (or, to the extent that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, to the Borrower); and (ii) in the event that the maturity of the

Obligations is accelerated by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement or otherwise, or in the event of any required or permitted prepayment, then such consideration that constitutes interest under law applicable to any Agent or any

Lender may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law, and excess interest, if any, provided for in this Agreement or otherwise shall, subject to the last sentence of this Section 12.17, be canceled automatically

by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited by such Agent or such Lender, as applicable, on the principal amount of the Obligations (or, to the extent

that the principal amount of the Obligations shall have been or would thereby be paid in full, refunded by such Agent or such Lender to the Borrower). All sums paid or agreed to be paid to any Agent or any Lender for the use, forbearance or

detention of sums due hereunder shall, to the extent permitted by law applicable to such Agent or such Lender, be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread throughout the full term of the Loans until payment in full so that the rate or amount of

interest on account of any Loans hereunder does not exceed the maximum amount allowed by such applicable law. If at any time and from time to time (x) the amount of interest payable to any Agent or any Lender on any date shall be computed at

the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender pursuant to this Section 12.17 and (y) in respect of any subsequent interest computation period the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Agent or such Lender would be

less than the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender, then the amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender in respect of such subsequent

interest computation period shall continue to be computed at the Highest Lawful Rate applicable to such Agent or such Lender until the total amount of interest payable to such Agent or such Lender shall equal the total amount of interest which would

have been payable to such Agent or such Lender if the total amount of interest had been computed without giving effect to this Section 12.17.

For purposes of this Section 12.17, the term “applicable law” shall mean that law in effect from time to time and applicable

to the loan transaction between the Borrower, on the one hand, and the Agents and the Lenders, on the other, that lawfully permits the charging and collection of the highest permissible, lawful non-usurious

rate of interest on such loan transaction and this Agreement, including laws of the State of New York and, to the extent controlling, laws of the United States of America.

The right to accelerate the maturity of the Obligations does not include the right to accelerate any interest that has not accrued as of the

date of acceleration.

Section 12.18 Confidentiality. Each Agent and each Lender agrees (on behalf of itself and each of its

affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to use reasonable precautions to keep confidential, in accordance with its customary procedures for handling confidential information of this nature and in accordance with safe and

sound practices of comparable commercial finance companies, any non-public information (which shall not include information pertaining to this Agreement routinely provided by arrangers to data service

providers, including league table providers, that serve the lending industry) supplied to it by the Loan Parties pursuant to this Agreement or the other Loan Documents which

167

is identified in writing by the Loan Parties as being confidential at the time the same is delivered to such Person (and which at the time is not, and does not thereafter become, publicly

available or available to such Person from another source not known to be subject to a confidentiality obligation to such Person not to disclose such information); provided that nothing herein shall limit the disclosure by any Agent or any Lender of

any such information (i) to its Affiliates and to its and its Affiliates’ respective equityholders (including partners), directors, officers, employees, agents, trustees, counsel, advisors and representatives (it being understood that the

Persons to whom such disclosure is made will be informed of the confidential nature of such information and instructed to keep such information confidential in accordance with this Section 12.18); (ii) to any other party hereto; (iii) to

any assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant) or any party to a Securitization, or to any credit insurers and reinsurers, so long as such assignee or participant (or prospective assignee or participant), party to a

Securitization or credit insurers and reinsurers first agrees, in writing, to be bound by confidentiality provisions similar in substance to this Section 12.18; (iv) to the extent required by any Requirement of Law or judicial process or

as otherwise requested by any Governmental Authority; (v) to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners or any similar organization, any examiner, auditor or accountant or any nationally recognized rating agency or otherwise to the

extent consisting of general portfolio information that does not identify Loan Parties; (vi) in connection with any litigation to which any Agent or any Lender is a party; (vii) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or

under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder; or (viii) with the consent of the Borrower.

Section 12.19 Public Disclosure. Each Loan Party hereby authorizes each Agent and each Lender, after review and approval by the

Borrower (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed, conditioned or denied), to advertise the closing of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and to make appropriate announcements of the financial arrangements entered into

among the parties hereto, as such Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate, including on a home page or similar place for dissemination of information on the Internet or worldwide web, or in announcements commonly known as tombstones, in such

trade publications, business journals, newspapers of general circulation and to such selected parties as such Agent or such Lender shall deem appropriate.

Section 12.20 Integration. This Agreement, together with the other Loan Documents, reflects the entire understanding of the

parties with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby and shall not be contradicted or qualified by any other agreement, oral or written, before the date hereof.

Section 12.21 USA PATRIOT Act. Each Lender that is subject to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act hereby notifies the Borrower

that pursuant to the requirements of the USA PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the entities composing the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of each such entity and other

information that will allow such Lender to identify the entities composing the Borrower in accordance with the USA PATRIOT Act. Each Loan Party agrees to take such action and execute, acknowledge and deliver at its sole cost and expense, such

instruments and documents as any Lender may reasonably require from time to time in order to enable such Lender to comply with the USA PATRIOT Act.

Section 12.22 Keepwell. Each Loan Party, if it is a Qualified ECP Loan Party, then jointly and severally, together with each other

Qualified ECP Loan Party, hereby absolutely unconditionally and irrevocably (a) guarantees the prompt payment and performance of all Swap Obligations owing by each Non-Qualifying Party (it being

understood and agreed that this guarantee is a guaranty of payment and not of collection), and (b) undertakes to provide such funds or other support as may be needed from time to time by any

Non-Qualifying Party to honor all of such Non-Qualifying Party’s obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document in respect of Swap Obligations

(provided, however, that each Qualified ECP Loan Party shall only be liable under this Section 12.22 for the maximum amount of such

168

liability that can be hereby incurred without rendering its obligations under this Section 12.22, or otherwise under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, voidable under applicable law,

including applicable law relating to fraudulent conveyance or fraudulent transfer, and not for any greater amount). The obligations of each Qualified ECP Loan Party under this Section 12.22 shall remain in full force and effect until payment in

full of the Obligations and termination of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. Each Qualified ECP Loan Party intends that this Section 12.22 constitute, and this Section 12.22 shall be deemed to constitute, a guarantee of the

obligations of, and a “keepwell, support, or other agreement” for the benefit of each other Borrower and Guarantor for all purposes of Section 1(a)(18)(A)(v)(II) of the CEA.

Section 12.23 Currency Indemnity. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court in any jurisdiction with respect to this

Agreement or any other Loan Document it becomes necessary to convert into the currency of such jurisdiction (the “Judgment Currency”) any amount due under this Agreement or under any of the Loan Documents in any currency other than the

Judgment Currency (the “Currency Due”), then conversion shall be made at the Exchange Rate at which the

applicable Administrative Agent is able, on the relevant date, to

purchase the Currency Due with the Judgment Currency prevailing on the Business Day before the day on which judgment is given. In the event that there is a change in the rate of Exchange Rate prevailing between the Business Day before the day on

which the judgment is given and the date of receipt by the applicable Administrative Agent of the amount due, the Borrower will, on the date of receipt by the

applicable Administrative Agent, pay such additional

amounts, if any, or be entitled to receive reimbursement of such amount, if any, as may be necessary to ensure that the amount received by the

applicable Administrative Agent on such date is the amount

in the Judgment Currency which when converted at the Exchange Rate prevailing on the date of receipt by the

applicable Administrative Agent is the amount then due

under this Agreement or such other Loan Document in the Currency Due. If the amount of the Currency Due which the

applicable Administrative Agent is able to purchase is less

than the amount of the Currency Due originally due to it, the Borrower shall indemnify and save the applicable

Administrative Agent harmless from and against loss or damage arising as a result of such deficiency.

Section 12.24 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 the parties hereto, 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 an 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;

(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.

169

Section 12.25 Acknowledgement Regarding Any Supported QFCs. To the extent that

the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for Swap Obligations 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.

Exhibit 99.1

VSE CORPORATION COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF PRECISION AVIATION GROUP

Acquisition increases VSE revenue by ~50% on a pro forma 2025 basis; expected to be immediately accretive to VSE’s Adjusted EBITDA

margins

MIRAMAR, FL., May 5, 2026 — VSE Corporation (NASDAQ: VSEC), a leading provider of aviation aftermarket distribution and repair

services, today announced it has completed the acquisition of Precision Aviation Group, Inc. (“PAG”), a portfolio company of GenNx360 Capital Partners (“GenNx”), for approximately $2.025 billion in cash and equity.

distribution centers. The expanded platform enhances VSE’s global reach, technical capabilities, and integrated offering across maintenance, repair, and overhaul (MRO) services and distribution, serving a diverse customer base across

“With the transaction closed, our focus shifts to integration and

synergy realization through cross-selling, repair insourcing, and procurement efficiencies. PAG’s margin profile is immediately accretive and supports a clear path to exceeding 20% consolidated Adjusted EBITDA margins over time.”

“Importantly, we are excited to welcome the talented PAG team to the VSE family and look forward to their contributions as we move forward

together,” Cuomo concluded.

Transaction Details

The $2.025 billion purchase price includes $1.75 billion in cash and approximately $275 million in equity issued to GenNx that is exchangeable

for VSE common stock, and up to an additional $125 million in contingent earnout payment based on 2026 performance, which is payable in cash, VSE common stock, or a combination thereof, at VSE’s discretion.

The transaction was funded using the net proceeds from VSE’s February 2026 equity and tangible equity unit offerings and $900 million under a new

Term Loan B maturing in 2033.

VSE will provide additional detail on the combined company’s outlook, capital structure, and integration priorities

forward-looking statements contained in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and this statement is included for purposes of such safe harbor provisions.

“Forward-looking” statements, as such term is defined by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) in its rules, regulations

and releases, represent VSE’s expectations or beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning the expected financial and other benefits of the acquisition of PAG, VSE’s operations, economic performance, financial condition,

statements speak only as of the date of this press release and VSE undertakes no ongoing obligation, other than that imposed by law, to update these statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. These statements relate to,

among other things, VSE’s future financial condition, results of operations or prospects; VSE’s business and growth strategies; and VSE’s financing plans and forecasts. You are cautioned that any such forward-looking statements are

not guarantees of future performance and involve significant risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond VSE’s control, and that actual results may differ materially from those contained in or implied by the forward-looking statements

as a result of various factors, some of which are unknown, including, without limitation, risks related to:

•

the performance of the aviation aftermarket;

•

global economic and political conditions;

•

supply chain delays and disruptions;

•

competition from existing and new competitors;

•

losses related to investments in inventory and facilities;

•

interruptions in VSE’s operations;

•

challenges related to workforce management or any failure to attract or retain a skilled workforce;

•

VSE’s ability to realize the expected strategic benefits and cost synergies from the acquisition of PAG,

after taking into account any business disruption, maintenance of customer, employee, or supplier relationships, management distraction during the integration process or other factors beyond VSE’s control;

•

the accuracy of VSE’s assumptions related to the acquisition of PAG;

•

the significant expenses that have been incurred and will be incurred in connection with acquisition of PAG;

•

VSE’s ability to successfully integrate and achieve the strategic and other objectives, including any

expected synergies, relating to recently completed acquisitions, including the acquisition of PAG;

•

access to and the performance of third-party package delivery companies;

•

prolonged periods of inflation and VSE’s ability to mitigate the impact thereof;

•

future business conditions resulting in impairments;

•

VSE’s ability to successfully divest businesses and to transition facilities in connection therewith;

•

•

health epidemics, pandemics and similar outbreaks;

•

compliance with government rules and regulations, including tariffs and environmental and pollution risk;

•

VSE’s ability to mitigate the impacts of increased costs related to tariffs;

•

litigation and legal actions arising from VSE’s operations;

•

technology and cybersecurity threats and incidents;

•

VSE’s outstanding indebtedness, including the increase in indebtedness upon completion of the acquisition

of PAG;

•

market volatility in the debt and equity capital markets;

•

VSE’s ability to continue to pay dividends at current levels or at all;

•

VSE’s published financial guidance;

•

VSE’s preliminary financial estimates, which represent management’s current estimates and are subject

to change;

•

restrictions and limitations that may stem from financing arrangements VSE enters into or assumes in the future;

and

•

the other factors identified in VSE’s reports filed or expected to be filed with the SEC, including

VSE’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2025.

You are

advised, however, to consult any further disclosures VSE makes on related subjects in VSE’s periodic reports on Forms 10-K, 10-Q or

8-K filed with or furnished to the SEC.

NON-GAAP MEASURES

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP), this release also contains non-GAAP financial measures. These measures provide useful information to investors.

VSE considers VSE’s Adjusted

EBITDA margin as non-GAAP financial measure and an important indicator of performance and useful metric for management and investors to evaluate VSE’s business’ ongoing operating performance on a

consistent basis across reporting periods. This non-GAAP financial measure, however, should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for performance measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. VSE

Adjusted EBITDA margin represents estimated operating income before depreciation and amortization expenses as a percentage of revenue. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA margin provides useful information about the Company’s operating

performance as it isolates non-cash depreciation and amortization charges as well as interest expense and income taxes, which are non-operating items.

Additionally, VSE Adjusted EBITDA margin is presented as a forward-looking non-GAAP financial measure based solely on

information available to VSE as of the date of this press release and may differ materially from VSE’s actual operating results as a result of developments that occur after the date of this press release. The determination of the amounts that

are excluded from this non-GAAP financial measure is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense, income amounts or anticipated synergies

recognized in a given period. VSE is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking VSE Adjusted EBITDA to net income because certain information regarding the Company’s provision for income taxes is not available, and

management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of net income at this time without unreasonable effort or expense. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

The unavailable information could have significant impact on the Company’s future financial results.

Exhibit 99.2

PAG Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Consolidated Financial Statements

December 31, 2025 and 2024

Independent Auditors’ Report

To the Board of Directors of

PAG Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Opinion

We have audited the consolidated financial

statements of PAG Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries (the Company), which comprise the consolidated balance sheets as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the related consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss), changes in

stockholders’ equity and cash flows for the years then ended, and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements.

In our opinion, the

accompanying consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the years then ended in

accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS). Our responsibilities under those

standards are further described in the Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in

accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audits. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Responsibilities of Management for the Consolidated Financial Statements

Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally

accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether

due to fraud or error.

In preparing the consolidated financial statements, management is required to evaluate whether there are conditions or events,

considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date that the consolidated financial statements are available to be issued.

Baker Tilly

Advisory Group, LP and Baker Tilly US, LLP, trading as Baker Tilly, are members of the global network of Baker Tilly International Ltd., the members of which are separate and independent legal entities. Baker Tilly US, LLP is a licensed CPA firm

that provides assurance services to its clients. Baker Tilly Advisory Group, LP and its subsidiary entities provide tax and consulting services to their clients and are not licensed CPA firms.

Auditors’ Responsibilities for the Audit of the Consolidated Financial Statements

Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether

due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditors’ report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS

will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions,

misrepresentations or the override of internal control. Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the

consolidated financial statements.

In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS, we:

•

Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit.

•

Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to

fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements.

•

Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are

appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed.

•

Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting

estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.

•

Conclude whether, in our judgment, there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise

substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern for a reasonable period of time.

We are required to

communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings and certain internal control-related matters that we identified during the audit.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands)

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts

of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Significant estimates affecting the

financial statements include, but are not limited to, the allowance for credit losses and the estimate of inventory valuation. The Company evaluates and updates its assumptions and estimates on an ongoing basis. Actual results could differ from

those estimates.

Translation of Foreign Currencies

The reporting currency of the Company is the U.S. Dollar. Management periodically assesses the functional currency of each subsidiary in accordance with

ASC 830, “Foreign Currency Matters”.

Translation of functional currencies to reporting currency for assets and liabilities is recorded using

the exchange rates at each balance sheet date, revenue and expenses are translated at average rates prevailing during the reporting period or at the date of the transaction, stockholders’ equity is translated at historical rates. Adjustments

resulting from translating functional currency into reporting currency are recorded as a separate component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) in the consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity.

Cash and Restricted Cash

The Company considers

all highly liquid instruments with maturity of three months or less to be cash equivalents. Cash overdrafts not subject to offset by other accounts in the same financial institution are recorded as accounts payable. The Company had restricted cash

of $298 and $279 as of December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, in connection with a lease agreement and for security of bank guarantees.

Accounts Receivable and Current Expected Credit Losses

The Current Expected Credit Losses (CECL) methodology utilizes a lifetime expected credit loss measurement objective for the recognition of credit losses on

financial assets measured at amortized cost, including loans, held-to-maturity securities, and other receivables at the time the financial asset is originated or

acquired. The expected credit losses are adjusted each period for changes in expected lifetime credit losses.

Trade accounts receivable are stated at the

amount the Company expects to collect and do not bear interest. The Company’s accounts receivable arise from sales in their various markets across the United States and internationally. The Company does not require collateral for accounts

receivable but certain customers are required to prepay or make deposits with the Company prior to ordering products.

The Company maintains an allowance

for credit losses based upon management’s estimate of the collectability of accounts receivable. The collectability of trade receivable balances is regularly evaluated based on a combination of factors such as customer credit-worthiness, age

of current receivable accounts, past transaction history with the customer, current economic industry trends, and changes in customer payment terms. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations and monitoring of the current financial condition of

all customers. If it is determined that a customer will be unable to fully meet its financial obligation, such as in the case of bankruptcy filing or other material events impacting its business, a specific reserve for bad debt is recorded to reduce

the related receivable to the amount expected to be recovered.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands)

Contract Balances

The timing of revenue recognition, billings, and cash collections result in billed accounts receivable and unbilled receivables (contract assets) on the

consolidated balance sheets. Amounts are billed either over time as the performance obligation is satisfied or at a point in time when items are shipped, in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms.

Contract assets are the right to consideration in exchange for goods or services that the Company has transferred to a customer when that right is conditional

on something other than the passage of time. The Company’s contract assets comprise of unbilled receivables against revenue recognized prior to receipt of payment. Contract assets are classified as current in the consolidated balance sheets

due to the short time period between recognition and collection.

The beginning and ending contract balances were as follows:

For the years ended December 31,

2025

2024

Accounts receivable and other

73,873

54,831

Contract assets

3,413

3,853

The changes in contract assets are primarily due to timing differences between the Company’s performance of services or

sales of components and the related right for consideration to become unconditional.

Inventory

Inventory consists of acquired units, repair parts, and core units (which are used units available to be repaired or overhauled and are both purchased and

returned from customers). Inventory is generally valued based upon the specific identification method by part number, although costs of common part numbers may be averaged. Acquired units are purchased for resale from outside vendors and are valued

at cost. Units in the exchange program are valued at average cost, which is estimated based upon original cost, recoverable value of returned units, and accumulated repair and maintenance costs incurred to make such units ready for exchange to

another customer. Core units received through a customer exchange program (trade-in) are valued at average cost. Repair parts are purchased from outside vendors, are valued at cost, and are included in

acquired units until they are consumed in the production process and are transferred to work in process. Work in process represents items being repaired either internally or externally and is valued at the cost of the unit to date including

accumulated costs for labor and repair parts used in process.

The Company records a valuation adjustment to reduce the carrying cost of inventory items

to net realizable value if they have had no sales activity in the preceding 36 months or if on-hand quantities exceed one year of expected usage.

Warranty

Acquired units purchased from

manufacturers are covered under warranties from such manufacturers and the Company is generally not liable for defects and issues with such products. The Company warrants all component exchanges and overhauls for one (1) year or three hundred

(300) hours of operation, whichever comes first. The Company makes a provision in cost of goods sold for estimated warranty costs on products sold and the accrual for such liability is included in other accrued liabilities on the accompanying

consolidated balance sheets.

Maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred, and major renovations and improvements are capitalized. Costs and

accumulated depreciation applicable to assets retired are removed from the accounts, and the gain or loss on disposition is recognized in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss).

The Company leases engine equipment to customers under cancelable operating lease agreements. The lease terms are primarily less than one year.

(dollars in thousands)

Impairment of Long-Lived Assets

The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the asset or asset

group may not be recoverable. Tests for recoverability of a long-lived asset to be held and used are measured by comparing the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group to the sum of the estimated future undiscounted cash flows expected

to be generated by the asset. In estimating the future undiscounted cash flows, the Company uses projections of cash flows directly associated with, and which are expected to arise as a direct result of the use and eventual disposition of the assets

or asset group. If it is determined that a long-lived asset or asset group is not recoverable, an impairment loss would be calculated equal to the excess of the carrying amount of the long-lived asset or asset group over its fair value. There was no

impairment loss recorded in 2025 or 2024.

Intangible Assets

Intangible assets with definite lives include customer relationships and tradenames and are stated at cost less accumulated amortization. Amortization is

computed utilizing the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. Intangible assets with indefinite useful lives, including Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and other licenses, are reviewed annually for impairment or

more frequently if impairment indicators arise. See Note 5 – Goodwill and Intangible Assets.

Goodwill

Goodwill represents the excess of the purchase price and related costs of an acquired business over the fair value of identified net assets. Goodwill is tested

for potential impairment annually as of December 31, or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable. The Company operates as one segment, which is considered to be the sole reporting unit,

and therefore goodwill is tested for impairment at the consolidated level.

When testing goodwill for impairment, the Company may initially qualitatively

assess whether it is necessary to perform a quantitative goodwill impairment test, which is only required if the Company concludes that it is more likely than not that the reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. In

evaluating whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, the Company considers the totality of all relevant events and circumstances that affect the fair value or carrying amount of

the reporting unit in accordance with ASC 350-20-35-3C. In the event the Company deems a quantitative impairment test necessary,

the Company estimates and compares the fair value of the reporting unit to its carrying value including goodwill. The fair value of the reporting unit is determined using a combination of the income approach and the market approach, which involves

the use of estimates and assumptions, including projected future operating results and cash flows, the cost of capital, and financial measures derived from observable market data of comparable public companies. If the fair value is less than the

carrying value, the amount of impairment expense is equal to the difference between the reporting unit’s fair value and the reporting unit’s carrying value.

Based on the annual goodwill impairment test performed as of December 31, 2025, the Company’s qualitative impairment test determined that it was

not more likely than not that the reporting unit fair value exceeded carrying value.

Debt Issuance Cost

Debt issuance costs are presented net with the related debt instrument and amortized over the term of the debt. Amortization is recorded to interest expense

using the straight-line method, which approximates the effective interest method.

PAG Holding Corp. and Subsidiaries

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands)

Income Taxes

The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return. The Company uses the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes. Under this method,

deferred tax assets and liabilities are recorded based on temporary differences between the tax basis of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements at the enacted tax rate expected to be in effect when

the taxes are actually paid.

The Company evaluated all tax positions that it has taken or expects to take on a tax return including decisions made

concerning whether or not to file a tax return in a specific tax jurisdiction. The Company evaluated all tax positions for recognition, de-recognition, and measurement using consistent criteria. The Company

has determined that it does not have any material uncertain tax positions as of December 31, 2025 and 2024. The Company recognizes interest accrued, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties, if any, in other

expenses.

The Company is generally no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, local or foreign tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2021.

Revenue Recognition

The Company recognizes

revenue for sales of components, including the components exchange program, upon the transfer of promised goods to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which they expect to be entitled in exchange for those goods. The

transaction price of a contract, which can include both fixed and variable amounts, is allocated to each performance obligation identified. Some contracts contain variable consideration, which could include incremental fees or penalty provisions

related to performance. Variable consideration that can be reasonably estimated based on current assumptions and historical information is included in the transaction price at the inception of the contract but limited to the amount that is probable

that a significant reversal in the amount of cumulative revenue recognized will not occur. Variable consideration that cannot be reasonably estimated is recorded when known.

Revenue from the engine equipment lease program is recorded over time based on usage and revenue from the APU equipment lease program is recorded over time

based on fixed monthly fees. Revenue from repair services is recorded once the repair is complete and the part is delivered to the customer. In certain cases, for larger overhaul jobs, revenue is recorded over time on a percentage of completion

basis. In all cases, revenue is recognized at the time the Company satisfies the performance obligation to their customer. Delivery is not considered to have occurred until the customer assumes the risks and rewards of ownership. Customers take

delivery at the time of shipment for terms designated free on-board shipping point.

The Company generally sells

its products and services under standard 30-day payment terms. On occasion, certain customers will negotiate extended payment terms of 60-90 days. Except for customary

warranty provisions, customers neither have the right to return products nor do they have the right to extended financing.

The Company includes shipping

and handling charges in its gross invoice price to customers and classifies the total amount as revenue. Shipping and handling expenses are recorded as cost of sales. Sales taxes are not recorded as a component of sales. The Company records a

liability when the amounts are collected and reduces the liability when payments are made to the applicable government agency.

Revenue is recorded net of

estimated product returns and discounts to customers. Returns and discounts are recorded as a reduction in revenue in the same period that the revenue is recognized. Customers have the right to return products purchased that do not function properly

within a limited time after delivery.

Business Combinations

When the Company acquires businesses, it applies the acquisition method of accounting and recognizes the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities

assumed at their fair values on the acquisition date, which requires significant estimates and assumptions. Goodwill is measured as the excess of the fair value of the consideration transferred over the net of the acquisition date fair values of the

identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The acquisition method requires the Company to record provisional amounts for any items for which the accounting is not complete at the end of a reporting period. The Company must complete the

accounting during the measurement period, which cannot exceed one year. Adjustments made during the measurement period could have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition and results of operations.

Typically, the carrying amounts of accounts receivable, inventory, prepaid expenses and other current assets, accounts payable, and accrued expenses

approximate their fair values based on their short-term nature. Property and equipment are generally recorded at net book values, which approximate fair values.

Right-of-use assets and lease liabilities are recorded at the acquisition date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. Identified intangible

assets are measured using various valuation techniques.

Share-Based Compensation

Profit unit awards are issued to certain employees as compensation. These profit unit awards include time-vesting units and performance-vesting units.

Compensation cost related to profit unit awards is calculated based upon the estimated fair value of the awards at the grant date, in accordance with ASC 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. The Company recognizes compensation

expense over the service period. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(dollars in thousands)

Advertising Cost

The Company expenses all advertising costs as incurred. Advertising expense was $3,229 and $2,434 for the years ended December 31, 2025 and 2024,

respectively.

Leases

The Company evaluates

whether a contractual arrangement that provides the Company control over the use of an asset is, or contains, a lease at inception. Right-of-use assets (ROU) represent

the Company’s right to use an underlying asset during the lease term, and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments. ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the

present value of lease payments over the lease term. Since most of the Company’s leases do not provide an implicit rate to determine the present value of lease payments, management uses the Company’s incremental borrowing rate based on

the information available at lease commencement. ROU assets also include any lease payments made and exclude any lease incentives. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company’s lease

terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that they will exercise the option. None of the lease agreements contain any material residual value guarantees. Certain lease agreements include provisions for

variable rent payments, which are adjusted periodically. The Company has elected the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components for its leases.

The Company has elected to apply the short-term lease exception to all leases with an initial term of 12 months or less. Short-term leases are not recorded on

the consolidated balance sheets. Lease expense is recognized for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Certain of the

Company’s leases are denominated in a foreign currency. For these leases, the lease liability and right-of-use asset are measured using the exchange rate at the

lease commencement date. Subsequently, the foreign currency denominated lease liability is remeasured using the exchange rate at each reporting date. Any changes to the lease liability arising from the translation of foreign currency are recognized

in the consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss) as a foreign exchange gain or loss.

Derivative Instruments

During the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company entered into a foreign currency forward contract in connection with the acquisition of Turner

Aviation Limited (“Turner”) to economically hedge exposure to changes in the British pound related to the purchase price. The derivative instrument was not designated as a hedging instrument for accounting purposes under ASC 815,

Derivatives and Hedging, and was settled in full during the period. For the year ended December 31, 2025, the Company recognized a loss of approximately $112 in Other expense (income). No derivative instruments were outstanding as of

December 31, 2025.

6. Long-Term Debt

Effective September 23, 2024, the

Senior Secured Credit Agreement was amended (“Amendment 1”). The Company determined that the Amendment should be accounted for as a modification. Accordingly, the Company capitalized $7,304 of debt issuance costs related to fees paid to

lenders and is amortizing this amount over the remaining term of the facility.

Effective July 9, 2025, the Company entered into a second amendment

to its Senior Secured Credit Agreement (“Amendment 2”), providing for incremental term loan commitments in an aggregate principal amount of $75,500, which were fully drawn on the amendment’s effective date. The incremental term

loan bears interest at a variable rate consistent with the existing term loans under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement and matures on the same date as the original facility. The Company evaluated Amendment 2 in accordance with ASC 470,

Debt, and concluded that it should be accounted for as a modification. Accordingly, the incremental proceeds were recorded as additional long-term debt, and fees incurred in connection with Amendment 2 of approximately $1,454 were capitalized

as debt issuance costs and are being amortized over the remaining term of the Senior Secured Credit Agreement.

As of December 31, 2025, the

Company’s long-term debt consists primarily of borrowings under its Senior Secured Credit Agreement, as amended. All amounts outstanding under the Senior Secured Credit Agreement are held by related parties, as certain lenders are also equity

investors in the Company. See Note 12 - Related Party Transactions.

As a result of acquisition activity during 2021, the Company inherited a US income tax net operating loss

(NOL). As of December 31, 2025, the gross federal NOL was approximately $15,594 and does not expire. The acquired NOL is subject to an annual usage limitation under IRC Sec 382. In assessing the realization of deferred tax assets, management

considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in

which those temporary differences become deductible. Management considers projections of future taxable income, tax planning strategies, and the reversal of temporary differences in making this assessment. Management concludes that no valuation

allowance is required.

10. Stockholders’ Equity

During 2025, the Company received stockholder contributions totaling $1,000, which were made in the form of $250 of cash and $750 of rollover equity as a

result of the Turner acquisition discussed in Note 16. Additionally, during 2025, the Company made distributions to one of its stockholders totaling $1,000. The contributions and distributions have been recorded as additional paid-in capital in the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity.

The foreign currency

translation adjustment included in the consolidated statements of changes in stockholders’ equity represents the net effect of translating the financial statements of foreign subsidiaries into the reporting currency. The translation

adjustments, recorded as other comprehensive income (loss) was a gain of $5,477 and a loss of $8,183 for the years ending December 31, 2025, and 2024, respectively.

Preferred Stock

The Company is authorized to

issue preferred stock. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, no preferred stock is outstanding. The holders of preferred stock, if any subsequently issued, would have no voting power and a $100 per share liquidation preference. The preferred return

on such units accrues at a rate of 10% per year compounded annually on the anniversary date of issuance on (a) unreturned capital and (b) the unpaid preferred yield thereon for all prior periods. If a liquidation event occurs, the holders

of preferred stock would receive the preference amount per share, plus accrued and unpaid dividends, before any assets of the Company are distributed to the holders of its other capital stock. The preferred stock has no conversion or redemption

features.

Common Stock

The holders of common

stock have one vote per share in all corporate matters. Subject to the rights of the holders of the preferred stock and unless prohibited by law, dividends may be declared and paid on the common stock as and when determined by the Board of

Directors. No dividends were declared or paid in 2025 or 2024. Subject to the rights of the holders of the preferred stock, if the Company liquidates, dissolves or winds up its business, the holders of the common stock will be entitled to receive,

ratably based upon the number of outstanding shares of common stock held by each such holder, all assets of the Company available for distribution to its stockholders.

respectively, at December 31, 2024. The Company determined compensation expense based upon the grant date fair value of such awards. For the years ended December 31, 2025, and 2024, the amount of compensation expense recorded was $507 and $674,

respectively. Fair value at date of grant was estimated using a valuation model for enterprise value of the company based upon cash flows and expected valuation multiples of peer companies divided by units outstanding giving consideration for share

preferences, rights, and obligations. The significant assumptions used are valuation multipliers and discount rates applied in the model.

As of December

31, 2025, there was $625 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested profit unit awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 1.5 years.

13. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is the price that

would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value into the following hierarchy are determined as follows:

Level 1

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2

Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities, or unadjusted quoted

prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active, or inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or

liability.

Level 3

Unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.

For cash, accounts receivable and accounts payable, the fair value approximates the carrying value due to the short

maturity periods of these financial instruments.

The carrying value of the Company’s long-term debt approximated fair value as of December 31,

2025, based on current borrowing rates available to the Company for instruments with similar terms, maturities, and credit risk.

14. Concentrations of Risk

The Company maintains its cash in bank deposit accounts, which at times may exceed federally insured limits. The Company has not experienced any losses in such

accounts. Deposits in Canadian, Brazilian, United Kingdom, Australian, and Singaporean banks totaled $3,041 and $3,643 at December 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively.

The Company is periodically subject to concentration risk related to certain large customers, the loss of which could have a material adverse impact on the

Company’s operations. As of December 31, 2025 and 2024, the Company did not have any customers considered to be significant.

15. Commitments and

Contingencies

The Company is a licensed Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) repair facility and is subject to regulatory inspection and compliance

requirements to maintain such licenses. In addition, certain of the Company’s vendors and customers have inspection and compliance requirements. These compliance and regulatory obligations periodically result in claims and investigations

related to products, contracts and employment matters which may result in litigation or other legal action including warranty liability to repair or replace certain products or fines, penalties, and compensatory damages. Management of the Company

believes, based upon current information, that the outcome of any such disputes and investigations will not have a material effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Where it is reasonably possible that

the Company will incur losses in excess of recorded amounts in connection with any such matters, the Company will disclose either the amount or range of reasonably possible losses in excess of such amounts or, where no such amount or range can be

reasonably estimated, the reasons why no such estimate can be made.

16. Business Combinations

The goodwill recognized as part of the acquisitions is tax deductible, the non-deductible portion is related to the UAS

goodwill acquired through rollover equity. Goodwill is attributable primarily to the expected synergies and assembled workforces of the acquired businesses.

“Loan Parties”), entered into a first amendment (the “First Amendment”) to its existing senior secured credit agreement, dated as of May 2, 2025 (as amended and restated, supplemented or otherwise modified, the

“Credit Agreement”), with certain banks and financial institution as lenders (the “Lenders”), Citizens Bank, N.A., as revolver administrative agent and collateral agent, and Royal Bank of Canada, as term loan B agent. The

First Amendment provides for, among other things, (i) a new senior secured term loan B facility in an aggregate principal amount of $900.0 million (the “New Term Loan B Facility”) and (ii) an upsize to the Company’s

existing senior secured revolving credit facility from $400.0 million to $500.0 million (the “New Revolving Facility”) (collectively, the “Debt Financing”).

The Revolving Facility will mature on May 2, 2030. The New Term Loan B Facility will mature on May 5, 2033 and will amortize in equal quarterly

installments of $9 million per year commencing with the first full fiscal quarter following the Closing Date, with the balance of outstanding borrowings payable on the final maturity date (subject to certain exceptions as provided in the Credit

Agreement).

On May 5, 2026, the Company borrowed $900.0 million under the New Term Loan B Facility. The proceeds of the New Term Loan B

Facility were used by the Company on the Closing Date (i) to fund a portion of the purchase price for the Acquisition, (ii) to repay certain fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Acquisition, (iii) to repay all of the

Company’s outstanding borrowings under its existing senior secured term loan A facility and (iv) for general corporate purposes.

Description of the Equity Financing

In February 2026,

the Company completed concurrent underwritten public offerings of (i) 4,587,766 shares of VSE common stock at a public offering price of $188.00 per share (the “Common Stock Offering”) and (ii) 9,200,000 5.750% tangible equity units

(“TEUs”), each with a stated value of $50.00 (the “Units Offering,” and together with the Common Stock Offering, the “Equity Financing”). The Common Stock Offering closed on February 4, 2026, and the Units

Offering closed on February 5, 2026. Net proceeds of approximately $1.3 billion were received by the Company, which were used to fund a portion of the cash consideration for the Acquisition.

Each TEU is comprised of (i) a prepaid stock purchase contract issued by the Company (a “purchase contract”) and (ii) a senior

amortizing note issued by the Company.

Each purchase contract has a fair value per unit of $42.1775 pursuant to which the Company will deliver to the

holder, on February 1, 2029 (subject to postponement in certain limited circumstances), unless earlier settled, a number of shares of the VSE common stock per purchase contract equal to an applicable settlement rate ranging from 0.2171 to

0.2660 shares. Unless settled earlier and subject to certain anti-dilution adjustments, each purchase contract will settle based upon the arithmetic average of the daily volume weighted average price of the VSE common stock on each of the 20

consecutive trading days beginning on, and including, the 21st scheduled trading day immediately preceding February 1, 2029 (“the applicable market value”) as follows:

•

if the applicable market value is greater than or equal to the threshold appreciation price (initially

$230.3086), holders will receive 0.2171 shares of VSE common stock for each purchase contract;

•

if the applicable market value is greater than the reference price (initially approximately $188.00) but less

than the threshold appreciation price, holders will receive a number of shares of VSE common stock for each purchase contract equal to the TEU stated amount of $50.00, divided by the applicable market value; and

•

if the applicable market value is less than or equal to the reference price, holders will receive 0.2660 shares

of VSE common stock for each purchase contract.

Each amortizing note issued by the Company has an initial principal amount of $7.8225

that pays quarterly installments of $0.7188 per amortizing note (except for the May 1, 2026 installment payment, which was $0.6868 per amortizing note), which cash payment in the aggregate will be equivalent to 5.750% per year with respect to

the $50.00 stated amount per Unit.

The Equity Financing and Debt Financing are collectively referred to as the “Financing.”

Accounting for the Acquisition

The Acquisition is being

accounted for as a business combination using the acquisition method with the Company as the accounting acquirer in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations. Under this method of

accounting, the aggregate consideration will be allocated to PAG HoldCo’s assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values on the Closing Date. The process of valuing the net assets of PAG HoldCo immediately prior

to the Acquisition, as well as evaluating accounting policies for conformity, is preliminary. Any differences between the estimated fair value of the consideration transferred and the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities

assumed will be recorded as goodwill. Accordingly, the aggregate consideration allocation and related adjustments reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are preliminary and subject to revision based on a final

determination of fair value. Refer to Note 1 - Basis of Presentation for more information.

The Company financed the Acquisition with a combination

of proceeds from the Financing and cash from the combined company balance sheet.

All financial data included in the unaudited pro forma condensed

combined financial information is presented in thousands of U.S. Dollars, unless otherwise noted, and has been prepared on the basis of U.S. GAAP and the Company’s accounting policies.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information presented is for informational purposes only and is not necessarily indicative of the

financial position or results of operations that would have been realized if the Acquisition and the Financing had been completed on the dates set forth above, nor is it indicative of the future results or financial position of the combined company.

See the accompanying notes to the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma

condensed combined financial information and related notes are prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X as amended by the final rule, Release

No. 33-10786 “Amendments to Financial Disclosures about Acquired and Disposed Businesses”.

The

Company and PAG’s historical financial statements were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP and presented in U.S. dollars. As discussed in Note 2, certain reclassifications were made to align the Company and PAG’s financial statement

presentation. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating PAG’s accounting policies, which will be finalized upon completion of the Acquisition, or as more information becomes available. As a result of that review, additional

differences could be identified between the accounting policies of the two companies. With the information currently available, the Company has determined that no significant adjustments are necessary to conform PAG’s financial statements to

the accounting policies used by the Company.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was prepared using the acquisition method

of accounting in accordance with ASC Topic 805, with the Company as the accounting acquirer, using the fair value concepts defined in ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, and based on the historical financial statements of the Company and PAG.

Under ASC Topic 805, all assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination are recognized and measured at their assumed acquisition date fair value, while transaction costs associated with the business combination are expensed as

incurred. The excess of consideration for the Acquisition over the estimated fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, if any, is allocated to goodwill.

The allocation of the aggregate consideration for the Acquisition depends upon certain estimates and assumptions, all of which are preliminary. The allocation

of the aggregate consideration for the Acquisition has been made for the purpose of developing the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information. The final determination of fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed

relating to the Acquisition could differ materially from the preliminary allocation of aggregate consideration for the Acquisition. The final valuation will be based on the actual net tangible and intangible assets of PAG existing on the Closing

Date.

The amounts herein have been presented on the basis of continuing operations in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The pro forma adjustments represent management’s best estimates and are based upon currently available

information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances.

Note 2 - Reclassification adjustments

During the preparation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, management performed a preliminary analysis of PAG’s

financial information to identify differences in accounting policies as compared to those of the Company and differences in financial statement presentation as compared to the presentation of the Company. With the information currently available,

the Company noted no material differences in accounting policies. Certain reclassification adjustments have been made to conform PAG’s historical financial statement presentation to the Company’s financial statement presentation.

Following the Acquisition, the combined company will finalize the review of accounting policies, reclassifications, and intercompany activity, which could be materially different from the amounts set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed

combined financial information presented herein.

Refer to the table below for a summary of reclassification adjustments made to present PAG’s balance

Note 3 – Preliminary aggregate consideration allocation

Estimated Aggregate Consideration for the Acquisition

The following table summarizes the preliminary estimated aggregate consideration for the Acquisition with reference to the Company’s share price of

$168.11 on May 4, 2026:

(in 000s)

Amount

Estimated cash paid for outstanding PAG capital stock (i)

1,028,053

Estimated Rollover Purchaser Shares issued to PAG stockholders (ii)

238,002

Estimated payment of PAG debt (iii)

697,232

Estimated contingent consideration (iv)

26,300

Estimated payment of PAG transaction expenses (v)

45,026

Preliminary estimated aggregate consideration for the Acquisition

2,034,613

(i)

The cash component of the preliminary estimated aggregate consideration for the Acquisition was based on the

enterprise value of PAG on a cash-free, debt-free basis, assuming a normalized level of working capital at closing and was subject to customary adjustments for working capital, cash, debt, and transaction expenses. The unaudited pro forma Condensed

Combined Balance Sheet reflects certain of these items based on historical balance sheet amounts as of December 31, 2025; accordingly, differences between those amounts and the actual balances at closing are reflected as corresponding

adjustments to cash in order to arrive at a consistent aggregate consideration amount.

(ii)

Value of the Rollover Purchaser Shares issued was based on 1,415,752 shares of VSE common stock being issued at

a share price of $194.24, which is the arithmetic mean of $200.49, which is the 20-day Volume-Weighted Average Price (“VWAP”) prior to the signing date of the Stock Purchase Agreement, and $188.00,

which is the public offering price of the Common Stock Offering. Fair value of Rollover Purchaser Shares was determined using the closing share price as of May 4, 2026.

(iii)

The total debt to be paid down reflected in the unaudited pro forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet is

$697 million which includes debt and accrued interest outstanding at December 31, 2025. At closing, $726 million was paid out in cash to settle outstanding PAG debt.

(iv)

Contingent consideration is in the form of an Earn-Out Payment paid in

VSE common stock, cash, or a combination of the two, at the sole discretion of the Company, determined based on the achievement of certain full-year 2026 adjusted EBITDA performance thresholds by PAG. If the Company elects to pay any portion of the Earn-Out Payment in the form of VSE common stock, the number of shares to be delivered will be determined based on the 20-day VWAP of VSE common stock calculated on the Earn-Out Determination Date (as defined in the Stock Purchase Agreement). The amount presented represents the acquisition date provisional fair value of the estimated future payment to Seller based on a closed form

Black-Scholes Model.

(v)

These costs consist of legal advisory, financial advisory, accounting and consulting costs of PAG.

Preliminary Aggregate Consideration Allocation

The assumed accounting for the Acquisition, including the preliminary aggregate consideration allocation for the Acquisition, is based on provisional amounts,

and the associated purchase accounting is not final. The preliminary allocation of the purchase price to the acquired assets and assumed liabilities is based upon the preliminary estimate of fair values. For the preliminary estimate of fair values

of assets acquired and liabilities assumed of PAG, the Company used publicly available benchmarking information as well as a variety of other assumptions, including market participant assumptions. The Company is expected to use widely

accepted income-based, market-based, and cost-based valuation approaches upon finalization of purchase accounting for the Acquisition. Actual results may differ materially from the assumptions within the unaudited pro forma condensed combined

financial information. The pro forma adjustments are based upon available information and certain assumptions that the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The purchase price adjustments relating to PAG and the

Company’s combined financial information are preliminary and subject to change, as additional information becomes available and as additional analyses are performed.

The following table summarizes the preliminary aggregate consideration allocation, as if the Acquisition had been completed on December 31, 2025:

A 10% change in the valuation of intangible assets would cause a corresponding increase or decrease in the

amortization expense of approximately $5 million for the year ended December 31, 2025. Pro forma amortization is preliminary and based on the use of straight-line amortization. The amount of amortization following the Acquisition may

differ significantly between periods based upon the final value assigned and amortization methodology used for each identifiable intangible asset.

(ii)

Deferred tax liabilities were derived based on incremental differences in the book and tax basis created from

the preliminary aggregate consideration allocation.

book and tax basis created from the preliminary aggregate consideration allocation, primarily resulting from the preliminary fair value of intangible assets. These adjustments were based on the applicable blended tax rate with the respective

estimated aggregate consideration allocation. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different (either higher or lower) depending on post-acquisition activities, including cash needs, the geographical mix of income and

changes in tax law. Because the tax rates used for the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are estimated, the blended rate will likely vary from the actual effective rate in periods subsequent to completion of the

rates assumed for purposes of preparing these statements.

Note 8 – Earnings Per Share

The unaudited pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share (“EPS”) for the year ended December 31, 2025, are based on pro forma income

reflecting the adjustments discussed above divided by the basic and diluted pro forma weighted-average number of VSE common stock outstanding.

connection with the issuance of the Rollover Purchaser Shares by the Company to Seller, the number of such Rollover Purchaser Shares issued is calculated using the arithmetic mean of the 20-day VWAP prior to

the signing of the Stock Purchase Agreement and the assumed public offering price of the Common Stock Offering based on the closing stock price of VSE common stock on January 30, 2026. The effect of the issuance of Rollover Purchaser Shares is

included in the unaudited pro forma basic and diluted EPS.

In connection with the Units Offering, prepaid stock purchase contracts were issued, which

give the holder the mandatory option to redeem the stock contracts for a variable number of shares of VSE common stock, subject to a minimum share settlement rate, for no additional consideration. The unaudited pro forma basic EPS calculation gives

effect to the assumed TEU issuance by including the minimum number of shares of VSE common stock issuable in its weighted average shares outstanding, as if they were issued and outstanding as of January 1, 2025, such that the total average of

weighted shares outstanding would be 29.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2025 on a pro forma consolidated basis.

The unaudited pro

forma diluted EPS calculation gives effect to all potentially dilutive shares following the close of the Acquisition and the Financing, including the shares of VSE common stock issuable pursuant to the prepaid stock purchase contracts as part of the

Units Offering and VSE common stock issued as part of the Common Stock Offering. For purposes of calculating unaudited pro forma diluted EPS, the maximum amount of shares of VSE common stock that would be exercisable as part of the Units Offering

are included. The exercise of the prepaid stock purchase contracts is assumed to have occurred on January 1, 2025.

The unaudited pro forma basic EPS are calculated as follows:

(in 000s)

For the Year Ended

December 31, 2025

Pro forma net income attributable to continuing operations

47,637

Pro forma basic weighted-average VSE common stock outstanding

29,140

Pro forma basic EPS - continuing operations

1.63

The unaudited pro forma diluted EPS are calculated as follows:

(in 000s)

For the Year Ended

December 31, 2025

Pro forma net income attributable to continuing operations

47,637

Pro forma diluted weighted-average VSE common stock outstanding

29,689
