This REVOLVING CREDIT AGREEMENT is dated as of June 27, 2025, among SOUTHWEST GAS HOLDINGS, INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Borrower”), each of the lenders from time to time parties to this Agreement (collectively, the “Lenders”), and JPMORGAN CHASE BANK, N.A., as the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender.

WITNESSETH:

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lenders provide a revolving credit facility, and the Lenders are willing to do so on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement;

NOW, THEREFORE, the parties agree as follows:

ARTICLE I

DEFINITIONS

Section 1.01 Definitions.

(a) Terms Generally. The definitions ascribed to terms in this Agreement apply equally to both the singular and plural forms of such terms. Whenever the context may require, any pronoun shall be deemed to include the corresponding masculine, feminine and neuter forms. The words “include”, “includes” and “including” shall be interpreted as if followed by the phrase “without limitation”. The phrase “individually or in the aggregate” shall be deemed general in scope and not to refer to any specific Section or clause of this Agreement. All references herein to Articles, Sections, Exhibits and Schedules shall be deemed references to Articles and Sections of, and Exhibits and Schedules to, this Agreement unless the context shall otherwise require. The table of contents, headings and captions herein shall not be given effect in interpreting or construing the provisions of this Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all references to “dollars” or “$” shall be deemed references to the lawful money of the United States of America.

(b) Accounting Terms. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the term “consolidated” and all other terms of an accounting nature shall be interpreted and construed in accordance with GAAP, as in effect from time to time; provided, however, that, for purposes of determining compliance with any covenant set forth in Article VII, such terms shall be construed in accordance with GAAP as in effect on the date of this Agreement, applied on a basis consistent with the construction thereof applied in preparing the Borrower’s audited financial statements referred to in Section 5.01(k). If there shall occur a change in GAAP which but for the foregoing proviso would affect the computation used to determine compliance with any covenant set forth in Article VII, the Borrower and the Lenders agree to negotiate in good faith in an effort to agree upon an amendment to this Agreement that will permit compliance with such covenant to be determined by reference to GAAP as so changed while affording the Lenders the protection intended to be afforded by such covenant prior to such change (it being understood, however, that such covenant shall remain in full force and effect in accordance with its existing terms unless and until such amendment shall become effective).

(c) Other Terms. The following terms have the meanings ascribed to them below or in the Sections of this Agreement indicated below:

“ABR Loan” means a Loan that bears interest based on the Alternate Base Rate.

“Acquisition” means any purchase or other acquisition by the Borrower or a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower of (a) any assets of any other Person that, taken together, constitute a business unit, or (b) any capital stock of or equity interests in any other Person if, immediately thereafter, such other Person would be a direct or indirect Subsidiary of the Borrower.

“Act” has the meaning assigned to such term in Section 11.12.

“Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR” means an interest rate per annum equal to (a) Daily Simple SOFR, plus (b) the SOFR Adjustment; provided, that, if Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR as so determined would be less than 0%, such rate shall be deemed to be equal to 0% for the purposes of this Agreement.

“Adjusted Term SOFR” means, for any Interest Period with respect to a Term Benchmark Loan, (a) Term SOFR for such Interest Period; plus (b) the SOFR Adjustment for such term; provided, that, (i) if Adjusted Term SOFR determined in accordance with the foregoing would otherwise be less than 0%, Adjusted Term SOFR shall be deemed 0% for the purposes of this Agreement and (ii) any calculation for a “one-week” Interest Period shall be subject to the calculation methodology set forth in Section 3.03 hereof.

“Bail-In Action” means the exercise of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority in respect of any liability of an Affected Financial Institution.

“Bail-In Legislation” means (a) with respect to any EEA Member Country implementing Article 55 of Directive 2014/59/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council of the European Union, the implementing law, regulation rule or requirement for such EEA Member Country from time to time which is described in the EU Bail-In Legislation Schedule and (b) with respect to the United Kingdom, Part I of the United Kingdom Banking Act 2009 (as amended from time to time) and any other law, regulation or rule applicable in the United Kingdom relating to the resolution of unsound or failing banks, investment firms or other financial institutions or their affiliates (other than through liquidation, administration or other insolvency proceedings).

6

Benchmark (or such component thereof) continues to be provided on such date. For the avoidance of doubt, (A) if the event giving rise to the Benchmark Replacement Date occurs on the same day as, but earlier than, the Reference Time in respect of any determination, the Benchmark Replacement Date will be deemed to have occurred prior to the Reference Time for such determination and (B) the “Benchmark Replacement Date” will be deemed to have occurred in the case of clause (a) above or clause (b) above with respect to any Benchmark upon the occurrence of the applicable event or events set forth therein with respect to all then-current Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

“Benchmark Transition Event” means, with respect to any Benchmark, the occurrence of one or more of the following events with respect to such then-current Benchmark:

(3) a public statement or publication of information by the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof) announcing that all Available Tenors of such Benchmark (or such component thereof) are no longer, or as of a specified future date will no longer be, representative.

For the avoidance of doubt, a “Benchmark Transition Event” will be deemed to have occurred with respect to any Benchmark if a public statement or publication of information set forth above has occurred with respect to each then-current Available Tenor of such Benchmark (or the published component used in the calculation thereof).

7

Until the Termination Date, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, each of the Lenders, severally and not jointly with the other Lenders, agrees to make loans (collectively, the “Loans”) in dollars to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding that will not result in such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment. Loans shall be made on any Borrowing Date only (i) in the minimum aggregate principal amount of $2,500,000 or in integral multiples of $500,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Term Benchmark Loans, and in the minimum aggregate amount of $1,000,000 or in

29

integral multiples of $100,000, in the case of ABR Loans and (ii) in a maximum aggregate principal amount not exceeding the Available Commitment (after giving effect to any repayments or prepayments and any other borrowings of Loans on such Borrowing Date). On the Closing Date, the parties hereto hereby agree that the Commitments shall be as set forth on Schedule I.

Section 2.02 Borrowing Procedure.

In order to borrow Loans, the Borrower shall give irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone or (B) a Borrowing Request to the Administrative Agent; provided, that, any telephonic notice must be promptly followed by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Borrowing Request. Each such Borrowing Request must be received not later than 12:00 P.M. (i) on the requested Borrowing Date for ABR Loans and (ii) two U.S. Government Securities Business Days before the requested Borrowing Date for Term Benchmark Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower fails to specify in a Borrowing Request whether such Loan shall be an ABR Loan or a Term Benchmark Loan, then the applicable Loans shall be made as ABR Loans with an Interest Period of one month. If the Borrower requests a borrowing of Term Benchmark Loans in any such Borrowing Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. Upon receipt, the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give notice to each Lender of the substance of the Borrowing Request. Not later than 1:00 P.M. on the Borrowing Date specified in the applicable Borrowing Request (which shall be a Business Day), each Lender shall make available to the Administrative Agent such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Pro Rata Share of the requested Loans in funds immediately available at the Administrative Agent’s Office; provided, that, Swingline Loans shall be made as provided in Section 2.07. Subject to satisfaction, or waiver by the Lenders required to waive any condition precedent not satisfied, of each of the applicable conditions precedent contained in Article VI, on the Borrowing Date the Administrative Agent shall make available, in like funds, to the Borrower the amounts received by the Administrative Agent from the Lenders either by (a) crediting the account of the Borrower maintained with the Administrative Agent with the amount of such funds or (b) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower.

Section 2.03 Termination, Reduction, Increase and Extension of Commitments.

(a) Unless previously terminated, the Commitments shall terminate on the Termination Date.

(b) The Borrower may terminate the Total Commitment, or reduce the amount thereof, by (i) giving written notice to the Administrative Agent, not later than 5:00 P.M. on the fifth Business Day prior to the date of termination or reduction and (ii) paying the amount of the Commitment Fees accrued through such date of termination or reduction. Reductions of the Total Commitment shall be in the amount of $2,500,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (or, if the amount of the Available Commitment is less than $2,500,000, then all of such lesser amount), but shall not exceed the Available Commitment in effect immediately before giving effect to such reduction. If, after giving effect to any reduction of the Total Commitments, the Swingline Commitment exceeds the amount of the Total Commitments, the Swingline Commitment shall be automatically reduced by the amount of such excess. Any termination, and all reductions, of the Total Commitment shall be permanent.

30

(c) The Borrower may from time to time, at its sole expense and effort after consulting with the Administrative Agent, request: (i) one or more Lenders to increase (in the sole and absolute discretion of each such Lender) the amount of their respective Commitments and/or (ii) one or more other lending institutions reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender (such acceptance not to be unreasonably withheld) (each, a “New Lender”) to become “Lenders” and extend Commitments hereunder (each such Lender and each New Lender being herein referred to as a “Proposed Lender”). To request an increase pursuant to this Section 2.03(c), the Borrower shall submit to the Administrative Agent an Increase Request, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G (or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent), signed by the Borrower, which shall be irrevocable and shall specify, as the case may be: (A) each such Lender and the amount of the proposed increase in its Commitment, or (B) the proposed Commitment for such New Lender. Promptly following receipt of an Increase Request, the Administrative Agent shall advise each Lender of the details thereof. If one or more of such Proposed Lenders shall have unconditionally agreed to such Increase Request in a writing delivered to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (each such existing Lender and New Lender being hereinafter referred to as an “Incremental Lender”), then: (1) each such Incremental Lender which shall then be an existing Lender shall have its Commitment increased by the amount set forth in such Increase Request, and (2) each such New Lender shall be and become a “Lender” hereunder having a Commitment equal to the amount set forth therefor in such Increase Request; provided, however, that, in each such case: (I) immediately before and after giving effect thereto, no Default or Event of Default shall or would exist, (II) each such Incremental Lender shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a supplement to this Agreement, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit I (or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent), providing for its increased Commitment or its Commitment, as applicable, in form approved by the Administrative Agent, (III) immediately after giving effect thereto, the Total Commitment under this Agreement shall not exceed $400,000,000, (IV) each such Increase Request shall be in an aggregate minimum amount of $10,000,000 or an integral multiple of $5,000,000 in excess thereof, and (V) the Commitment extended by any such Incremental Lender which is a New Lender shall be in a minimum amount of $5,000,000 or an integral multiple of $1,000,000 in excess thereof.

(d) Simultaneously with each increase in the aggregate amount of the Commitments under Section 2.03(c), each Incremental Lender shall, to the extent necessary, purchase from each other Lender, and each other Lender shall sell to each Incremental Lender, in each case at par and without representation, warranty, or recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in Section 10.03), such principal amount of the Loans of such other Lender, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, as will result, after giving effect to such transaction, in each Lender’s Applicable Percentage of Loans outstanding being equal to such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of all Loans; provided, that, each such assignor Lender shall have received (to the extent of the interests, rights and obligations assigned) payment of the outstanding principal amount of such Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees, commissions and all other amounts payable to it under the Credit Documents from the applicable assignee Lenders (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest, fees and commissions) or the Borrower

31

(in the case of all other amounts). The Borrower shall prepay any Loans outstanding on the effective date of such increase of the aggregate amount of the Commitments (and pay any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 4.03) to the extent necessary to keep the outstanding Loans ratable with any revised Applicable Percentages arising from any nonratable increase in the Commitments under Section 2.03(c).

(e) The Borrower may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly deliver a copy to each of the Lenders) not less than 30 days and not more than 90 days prior to August 1, 2026, August 1, 2027, August 1, 2028 or August 1, 2029, an Extension Request, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H (or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent), signed by the Borrower, request that the Lenders extend the Termination Date then in effect and the Commitments for an additional period of one year. Each Lender shall, by notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent given not later than the 15th day after the date of the Administrative Agent’s receipt of the Borrower’s Extension Request, advise the Borrower whether or not it agrees to the requested extension (each Lender agreeing to a requested extension being called a “Consenting Lender” and each Lender declining to agree to a requested extension being called a “Declining Lender”). Any Lender that has not so advised the Borrower and the Administrative Agent by such day shall be deemed to have declined to agree to such extension and shall be a Declining Lender. If Lenders constituting the Required Lenders shall have agreed to an extension in their sole and absolute discretion, then the Termination Date shall, as to the Consenting Lenders, be extended to the first anniversary of the Termination Date theretofore in effect. The decision to agree or withhold agreement to any Termination Date extension shall be at the sole discretion of each Lender. The Commitment of any Declining Lender shall terminate on the Termination Date in effect prior to giving effect to any such extension (such Termination Date being called the “Existing Termination Date”). Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 2.03(e), the Borrower shall have the right, with the prior written consent (not to be unreasonably withheld) of the Administrative Agent, at any time prior to the Existing Termination Date, to replace a Declining Lender with a Lender or Eligible Assignee that will agree to a request for the extension of the Termination Date then in effect, and any such Replacement Lender shall for all purposes constitute a Consenting Lender; provided, however, that, in each such case (i) each such Replacement Lender shall have executed and delivered to the Administrative Agent a supplement to this Agreement, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit J (or such other form approved by the Administrative Agent), providing for its Commitment, and (ii) the Declining Lender shall assign, in accordance with Section 10.03(a), all or part, as the case may be, of its Loans, Commitment, Revolving Credit Note and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Credit Documents to such Replacement Lender, in exchange for payment of the principal of, and interest accrued to the date of such payment on, Loans owing to such Declining Lender and any accrued Commitment Fees owing to such Declining Lender; and upon such payments, the obligations of such Declining Lender hereunder in respect of its Commitment shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged and such Replacement Lender shall be and become a “Lender” hereunder having a Commitment equal to the amount set forth therefor in such supplement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no extension of the Termination Date pursuant to this paragraph shall become effective unless (i) the Administrative Agent shall have received documents consistent with those delivered with respect to the Lender under Section 6.01(c), (d), (e)(ii) (it being understood and agreed that the date referred to in Section 6.01(e)(ii) shall refer to the date of the then most recently delivered audited financial statements required to be delivered

32

pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(i)), (e)(iii), (e)(iv) and (e)(v), giving effect to such extension and (ii) on the date on which the Required Lenders shall have agreed to an extension, (A) the conditions set forth in Section 6.02(b) shall be satisfied and (B) the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.01 shall be true and correct in all material respects (except to the extent that any representation or warranty speaks as of a date certain), except for any representation or warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect (in which case such representation or warranty shall be true and correct in all respects), except that for purposes of this Section 2.03(e), the representations and warranties contained in Section 5.01(k) shall be deemed to refer to the most recent statements furnished pursuant to Section 7.01(a) or (a)(ii), as applicable, and the Administrative Agent shall have received a certificate with respect to the matters referred to in clauses (A) and (B) dated such date and executed by a Responsible Officer. Unless a Declining Lender ceases to be a Lender hereunder pursuant to the above provisions in this Section 2.03(e), the Borrower hereby agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, for distribution to the Declining Lenders, all of the outstanding Loans made by the Declining Lenders, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon and all accrued fees and other amounts (including any amounts required pursuant to Section 4.03) payable to or for the accounts of the Declining Lenders on the Existing Termination Date, and, upon each Declining Lender’s receipt of such amounts, such Declining Lender shall cease to be a Lender hereunder.

Section 2.04 Repayment.

All Loans shall be repaid, together with all accrued and unpaid interest thereon, on the Termination Date; provided, that, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Swingline Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Swingline Loan no later than the earlier to occur of (a) ten (10) Business Days after such Swingline Loan is made and (b) the Termination Date; provided, further, that, on each date that a borrowing of Loans is made, the Borrower shall repay all Swingline Loans then outstanding and the proceeds of any such borrowing of Loans shall be applied by the Administrative Agent to repay any Swingline Loans outstanding.

Section 2.05 Optional Prepayment.

The Borrower may prepay Loans bearing interest on the same basis and having the same Interest Periods, if any, by giving notice to the Administrative Agent (and, in the case of prepayment of Swingline Loans, the Swingline Lender) pursuant to delivery to the Administrative Agent (and the Swingline Lender, if applicable) of a Notice of Loan Prepayment not later than 1:00 P.M. two Business Days preceding the proposed date of prepayment, in the case of Term Benchmark Loans, not later than 1:00 P.M. on the Business Day of the proposed date of prepayment, in the case of ABR Loans or not later than 12:00 P.M. on the date of prepayment in the case of prepayment of a Swingline Loan.

(iii) any amount payable to such Defaulting Lender hereunder (whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise and including any amount that would otherwise be payable to such Defaulting Lender) shall, in lieu of being distributed to such Defaulting Lender, be retained by the Administrative Agent in a segregated account and, subject to any applicable requirements of law, be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent, in the following order of priority: (A) first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder, (B) second, to the payment on a pro rata basis of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Swingline Lender hereunder, (C) third, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists) to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, (D) fourth, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, held in such account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Loans under this Agreement, (E) fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Swingline Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Swingline Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement or under any other Credit Document and (F) sixth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement.

34

(b) The Borrower may, by ten Business Days’ notice in writing to the Administrative Agent and a Defaulting Lender, (i) request such Defaulting Lender to cooperate with the Borrower in obtaining a Replacement Lender for such Defaulting Lender; (ii) request the non-Defaulting Lenders to acquire and assume all or a portion of such Defaulting Lender’s Loans and Commitment, but none of such Lenders shall be obligated to do so; or (iii) propose a Replacement Lender. If a Replacement Lender shall be accepted by the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender or one or more of the non-Defaulting Lenders shall agree to acquire and assume all or part of a Defaulting Lender’s Loans and Commitment, then such Defaulting Lender shall assign, in accordance with Section 10.03(a), all or part, as the case may be, of its Loans, Commitment, Revolving Credit Note and other rights and obligations under this Agreement and all other Credit Documents to such Replacement Lender or non-Defaulting Lenders, as the case may be, in exchange for payment of the principal of, and interest accrued to the date of such payment on, Loans owing to such Defaulting Lender and any accrued Commitment Fees owing to such Defaulting Lender; and upon such payments, the obligations of such Defaulting Lender hereunder in respect of its Commitment shall, by the provisions hereof, be released and discharged; provided, however, that, such Defaulting Lender’s rights under Sections 4.03, 4.04 and 4.06, and its obligations under Section 9.06 shall survive such release and discharge as to matters occurring prior to such date; provided further, however, that, such assignment shall be on the terms and conditions set forth in Section 10.03(a). If the Replacement Lender and the non-Defaulting Lenders shall only be willing to acquire less than all of a Defaulting Lender’s outstanding Loans and Commitment, the Commitment of such Defaulting Lender shall not terminate, but shall be reduced proportionately, and such Defaulting Lender shall continue to be a “Lender” hereunder with a reduced Commitment and Pro Rata Share. Upon the effective date of such assignment, such Replacement Lender shall, if not already a Lender, become a “Lender” for all purposes under this Agreement and the other Credit Documents.

(c) The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 2.06 are in addition to other rights and remedies that the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender or any Lender may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(d) In the event that the Administrative Agent, the Swingline Lender and the Borrower agree that a Defaulting Lender has adequately remedied all matters that caused such Lender to be a Defaulting Lender, then such Lender shall purchase at par such of the Loans (other than Swingline Loans) of the other Lenders as the Administrative Agent shall determine may be necessary in order for such Lender to hold such Loans ratably in accordance with its Commitments, the Swingline Exposure of the Lenders shall be readjusted to reflect the inclusion of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment and such Lender shall no longer be a Defaulting Lender; provided, that, no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that, except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

35

(e) If any Swingline Exposure exists at the time such Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender then:

(i) all or any part of the Swingline Exposure of such Defaulting Lender (other than the portion of such Swingline Exposure referred to in clause (b) of the definition of such term) shall be reallocated among the non-Defaulting Lenders in accordance with their respective Pro Rata Shares but only to the extent that such reallocation does not, as to any non-Defaulting Lender, cause such non-Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure to exceed its Commitment; and

(ii) if the reallocation described in clause (i) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrower shall within one Business Day following notice by the Administrative Agent prepay such Swingline Exposure.

(f) So long as such Lender is a Defaulting Lender, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan unless it is satisfied that the related exposure will be 100% covered by the Commitments of the non-Defaulting Lenders, and Swingline Exposure related to any newly made Swingline Loan shall be allocated among non-Defaulting Lenders in a manner consistent with Section 2.06(e)(i) (and such Defaulting Lender shall not participate therein).

(g) If (i) a Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clauses (c) or (g) in the definition of “Defaulting Lender” following the date hereof and for so long as such event shall continue or (ii) the Swingline Lender has a good faith belief that any Lender has defaulted in fulfilling its obligations under one or more other agreements in which such Lender commits to extend credit, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to fund any Swingline Loan, unless the Swingline Lender shall have entered into arrangements with the Borrower or such Lender, satisfactory to the Swingline Lender to defease any risk to it in respect of such Lender hereunder.

Section 2.07 Swingline Loans.

(a) Subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, from time to time until the Termination Date, the Swingline Lender may, but shall have no obligation to, make Swingline Loans to the Borrower in an aggregate principal amount at any time outstanding that will not result in (i) the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Swingline Loans made by the Swingline Lender exceeding the Swingline Commitment or (ii) any Lender’s Revolving Credit Exposure exceeding its Commitment; provided, that, the Swingline Lender shall not be required to make a Swingline Loan to refinance an outstanding Swingline Loan. Within the foregoing limits and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein, the Borrower may borrow, prepay and reborrow Swingline Loans. Each Swingline Loan shall be in an amount that is an integral multiple of $100,000 and not less than $100,000 (or, if the amount of the undrawn Swingline Commitment is less than $100,000, then all of such lesser amount).

36

(b) To request a Swingline Loan, the Borrower shall submit a written notice to the Administrative Agent by telecopy or electronic mail not later than 12:00 P.M. on the day of a proposed Swingline Loan. Each such notice shall be in a form approved by the Administrative Agent, shall be irrevocable and shall specify the requested date (which shall be a Business Day) and amount of the requested Swingline Loan. The Administrative Agent will promptly advise the Swingline Lender of any such notice received from the Borrower. The Swingline Lender shall make the requested Swingline Loan available to the Borrower by means of a credit to an account of the Borrower with the Administrative Agent designated for such purpose by 3:00 P.M. on the requested date of such Swingline Loan.

(c) The Swingline Lender may by written notice given to the Administrative Agent require the Lenders to acquire participations in all or a portion of its Swingline Loans outstanding. Such notice shall specify the aggregate amount of Swingline Loans in which Lenders will participate. Promptly upon receipt of such notice, the Administrative Agent will give notice thereof to each Lender, specifying in such notice such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Lender hereby absolutely and unconditionally agrees, promptly upon receipt of such notice from the Administrative Agent (and in any event, if such notice is received by 12:00 P.M. on a Business Day no later than 5:00 P.M. on such Business Day and if received after 12:00 P.M. on a Business Day shall mean no later than 10:00 A.M. on the immediately succeeding Business Day), to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the Swingline Lender, such Lender’s Applicable Percentage of such Swingline Loans. Each Lender acknowledges and agrees that its obligation to acquire participations in Swingline Loans pursuant to this paragraph is absolute and unconditional and shall not be affected by any circumstance whatsoever, including the occurrence and continuance of a Default or reduction or termination of the Commitments, and that each such payment shall be made without any offset, abatement, withholding or reduction whatsoever. Each Lender shall comply with its obligation under this paragraph by wire transfer of immediately available funds, in the same manner as provided in Section 2.02 with respect to Loans made by such Lender (and Section 2.02 shall apply, mutatis mutandis, to the payment obligations of the Lenders), and the Administrative Agent shall promptly pay to the Swingline Lender the amounts so received by it from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower of any participations in any Swingline Loan acquired pursuant to this paragraph, and thereafter payments in respect of such Swingline Loan shall be made to the Administrative Agent and not to the Swingline Lender. Any amounts received by the Swingline Lender from the Borrower (or other party on behalf of the Borrower) in respect of a Swingline Loan after receipt by the Swingline Lender of the proceeds of a sale of participations therein shall be promptly remitted to the Administrative Agent; any such amounts received by the Administrative Agent shall be promptly remitted by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders that shall have made their payments pursuant to this paragraph and to the Swingline Lender, as its interest may appear; provided, that, any such payment so remitted shall be repaid to the Swingline Lender or to the Administrative Agent, as applicable, if and to the extent such payment is required to be refunded to the Borrower for any reason. The purchase of participations in a Swingline Loan pursuant to this paragraph shall not relieve the Borrower of any default in the payment thereof.

(d) The Swingline Lender may be replaced at any time by written agreement among the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, the replaced Swingline Lender and the successor Swingline Lender. The Administrative Agent shall notify the Lenders of any such replacement of the Swingline Lender. At the time any such replacement shall become effective, the Borrower shall pay all unpaid interest accrued for the account of the replaced Swingline Lender pursuant to Section 3.02. From and after the effective date of any such replacement, (x) the successor

37

Swingline Lender shall have all the rights and obligations of the replaced Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made thereafter and (y) references herein to the term “Swingline Lender” shall be deemed to refer to such successor or to any previous Swingline Lender, or to such successor and all previous Swingline Lenders, as the context shall require. After the replacement of a Swingline Lender hereunder, the replaced Swingline Lender shall remain a party hereto and shall continue to have all the rights and obligations of a Swingline Lender under this Agreement with respect to Swingline Loans made by it prior to its replacement, but shall not be required to make additional Swingline Loans.

(e) Subject to the appointment and acceptance of a successor Swingline Lender, the Swingline ▇▇▇▇▇▇ may resign as a Swingline ▇▇▇▇▇▇ at any time upon thirty days’ prior written notice to the Administrative Agent, the Borrower and the Lenders, in which case, such Swingline Lender shall be replaced in accordance with Section 2.07(d) above.

ARTICLE III

INTEREST AND FEES

Section 3.01 Interest Rate Determination; Conversion.

(a) Except to the extent that the Borrower shall request, in a Borrowing Request, in a Conversion Request or in a written election pursuant to Section 3.03, that Loans (or portions thereof) bear interest as Term Benchmark Loans, Loans shall bear interest as ABR Loans.

(b) The Borrower may request, by giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone or (B) a Conversion Request (provided, that, any telephonic notice must be promptly followed by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Conversion Request), not later than the time that a Borrowing Request would be required under Section 2.02 if the Borrower were requesting a borrowing of Loans of the Type resulting from such conversion or continuation to be made on the effective date of such election, that all or portions of the outstanding Loans, in the aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof, in the case of Loans being converted to or continued as Term Benchmark Loans, and in the aggregate principal amount of $1,000,000 or in integral multiples of $100,000 in excess thereof (or, if the aggregate principal amount of outstanding Loans is less than $1,000,000, then all such lesser amount), in the case of ABR Loans, bear interest from and after the Conversion Date as ABR Loans or Term Benchmark Loans; provided, however, that, during the continuance of any Default or Event of Default that shall have occurred, no Loan (or portion thereof) may be converted into Term Benchmark Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Borrower fails to give a timely notice requesting a conversion or continuation, then the applicable Loans shall be converted to ABR Loans. Any such automatic conversion to ABR Loans shall be effective as of the last day of the Interest Period then in effect with respect to the applicable Term Benchmark Loans. If the Borrower requests a conversion to, or continuation of, Term Benchmark Loans in any such Conversion Request, but fails to specify an Interest Period, it will be deemed to have specified an Interest Period of one month. Upon receipt, the Administrative Agent forthwith shall give notice to each Lender of the substance of each Conversion Request. Upon payment by the Borrower of the amounts, if any, required by Section 4.03, on the Conversion Date the Loans or portions thereof as to which the Conversion Request was made shall commence to accrue interest in the manner selected by the Borrower therein. This Section shall not apply to Swingline Loans, which may not be converted or continued and shall be ABR Loans.

38

Section 3.02 Interest on ABR Loans and Swingline Loans.

Each ABR Loan (other than Swingline Loans) shall bear interest from the date made until the date repaid, or (if converted into a Term Benchmark Loan to (but excluding) the first day of any relevant Interest Period), payable in arrears on the last Business Day of each calendar quarter of each year, commencing with the first such date after the Closing Date, and the Termination Date, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans and (ii) the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time, which rate shall change as and when said Applicable Margin or Alternate Base Rate shall change. Interest on Swingline Loans shall be payable in arrears on each day that such Loan is required to be repaid pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and the Termination Date, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin for ABR Loans and (ii) the Alternate Base Rate in effect from time to time, which rate shall change as and when said Applicable Margin or Alternate Base Rate shall change.

Section 3.03 Interest on Term Benchmark Loans.

Each Term Benchmark Loan shall bear interest from the date made until the date repaid or converted to an ABR Loan, payable in arrears, with respect to Interest Periods of three months or less, on the last day of such Interest Period, and with respect to Interest Periods longer than three months, the respective dates that fall every three months after the commencement of such Interest Period and on the last day of such Interest Period, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) the Applicable Margin for Term Benchmark Loans and (ii) Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period; provided, that, for an Interest Period of one week, the interest rate will be based on (a) Daily Simple SOFR plus (b) 0.03839% plus (c) the Applicable Margin for Term Benchmark Loans, which interest rate shall be recalculated on each day during such Interest Period; provided, that, if the sum of clause (a) plus clause (b) as so determined would be less than 0%, the sum of clause (a) plus clause (b) shall be deemed to be equal to 0% for the purposes of this Agreement. Each Term Benchmark Loan shall become an ABR Loan at the end of the Interest Period therefor, unless (x) there shall not have occurred and be continuing a Default or Event of Default and (y) not later than the third Business Day prior to the last day of such Interest Period, (A) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent an irrevocable written election of the subsequent Interest Period in the form of a Conversion Request, in which case such Term Benchmark Loan shall remain outstanding as a Term Benchmark Loan, or (B) the Borrower shall have delivered to the Administrative Agent a Conversion Request with respect thereto, in which case such Term Benchmark Loan shall be converted in accordance with Section 3.01(b). The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the interest rate applicable to any Interest Period for Term Benchmark Loans upon determination of such interest rate. After giving effect to all borrowings, all conversions of Loans from ABR Loans to Term Benchmark Loans or from Term Benchmark Loans to ABR Loans, and all continuations of Loans as Term Benchmark Loans, there shall not be more than ten Interest Periods in effect with respect to all Loans. For the avoidance of doubt, with respect to any RFR Loan, interest shall be payable in arrears on (1) each date that is on the numerically corresponding day in each calendar month that is one month after the borrowing of such Loan (or, if there is no such numerically corresponding day in such month, then the last day of such month) and (2) the Termination Date.

39

Section 3.04 Interest on Overdue Amounts.

All overdue amounts (including principal, interest and fees) hereunder shall bear interest, payable on demand, at a rate per annum equal to the sum of (i) 2% and (ii) in the case of Term Benchmark Loans, the rate then applicable until the end of the current Interest Period therefor, and thereafter the rate of interest applicable to ABR Loans, changing as and when such rate shall change, and in the case of ABR Loans, the rate of interest applicable to ABR Loans, changing as and when such rate shall change.

Section 3.05 Day Counts.

Interest computed by reference to SOFR and the Alternate Base Rate hereunder shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days. Interest computed by reference to the Alternate Base Rate only at times when the Alternate Base Rate is based on the Prime Rate shall be computed on the basis of a year of 365 days (or 366 days in a leap year). In each case interest shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day but excluding the last day). All interest hereunder on any Loan shall be computed on a daily basis based upon the outstanding principal amount of such Loan as of the applicable date of determination. A determination of the Alternate Base Rate, Adjusted Term SOFR, Term SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple SOFR or Daily Simple SOFR, as applicable, shall be determined by the Administrative Agent, and such determination shall be conclusive absent manifest error.

Section 3.06 Maximum Interest Rate.

(a) Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Borrower to pay interest at a rate exceeding the maximum rate permitted by applicable law. Neither this Section nor Section 11.01 is intended to limit the rate of interest payable for the account of any Lender to the maximum rate permitted by the laws of the State of New York (or any other applicable law) if a higher rate is permitted with respect to such Lender by supervening provisions of U.S. Federal law.

(b) If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Lender on any interest payment date in respect of the immediately preceding interest computation period, computed pursuant to this Article III, would exceed the maximum amount permitted by applicable law to be charged by such ▇▇▇▇▇▇, the amount of interest payable for its account on such interest payment date shall automatically be reduced to such maximum permissible amount.

(c) If the amount of interest payable for the account of any Lender in respect of any interest computation period is reduced pursuant to Section 3.06(b) and the amount of interest payable for its account in respect of any subsequent interest computation period would be less than the maximum amount permitted by law to be charged by such Lender, then the amount of interest payable for its account in respect of such subsequent interest computation period shall be automatically increased to such maximum permissible amount; provided, that, at no time shall the aggregate amount by which interest paid for the account of any Lender has been increased pursuant to this Section 3.06(c) exceed the aggregate amount by which interest paid for its account has theretofore been reduced pursuant to Section 3.06(b).

40

Section 3.07 Commitment Fees.

The Borrower agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender, no later than the date that is fifteen calendar days following the end of each calendar quarter of each year, commencing with the first such day after the Closing Date (or such later date on which such Lender becomes a Lender), and on the Termination Date (or other date on which the Commitment shall terminate) with respect to such Lender, a fee (the “Commitment Fee”) computed by applying (i) on each day on which the applicable Pricing Level set forth in the definition of “Applicable Margin” is in effect, the corresponding percentage per annum in the column labeled “Commitment Fee” set forth in the definition of “Applicable Margin” adjacent to such Pricing Level on such day during the then-ending quarter (or shorter period ending with the Termination Date or any other date on which the Commitment of such Lender shall terminate) to (ii) the actual daily amount of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Unused Commitment. For the avoidance of doubt, Swingline Exposure shall not be counted towards or considered usage of Commitments for purposes of determining the Commitment Fee. All facility fees shall be computed on the basis of a year of 360 days and shall be payable for the actual number of days elapsed (including the first day and the last day of each period but excluding the date on which the Commitments terminate).

ARTICLE IV

DISBURSEMENT AND PAYMENT

Section 4.01 Disbursement.

(a) Each Loan shall be made by the relevant Lender from such Lender’s branch or affiliate identified as its Applicable Lending Office.

(b) The failure of any Lender to make any Loan to be made by it on the Borrowing Date therefor shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make its Loan or Loans on such date, but neither any Lender nor the Administrative Agent shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to make a Loan to be made by such other Lender.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any borrowing of Term SOFR Loans (or, in the case of any borrowing of Base Rate Loans, prior to 1:00 P.M. on the date of such borrowing) that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.02 (or, in the case of a borrowing of ABR Loans, that such Lender has made such share available in accordance with and at the time required by Section 2.02) and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the

41

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 the Administrative Agent, at (i) in the case of such Lender, the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation or (ii) in the case of the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to ABR Loans. If the Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the 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 Administrative Agent, then such amount shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such borrowing. 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 Administrative Agent.

Section 4.02 Method and Time of Payments; Sharing among Lenders.

(a) All funds received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders in respect of payments made by the Borrower under, or from any other Person on account of, any Credit Document shall be distributed forthwith by the Administrative Agent among the Lenders, in like funds as received, ratably in proportion to their respective interests therein. Each payment of Commitment Fees and each reduction of the Total Commitment shall be apportioned among the Lenders in proportion to each Lender’s Pro Rata Share.

(b) All payments to be made by the Borrower hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff to the Administrative Agent, for its account or for the account of the Lender or Lenders entitled thereto, as the case may be, in dollars and in immediately available funds to the Administrative Agent at its offices at ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, except payments to be made directly to the Swingline Lender as expressly provided herein and except that payments pursuant to Sections 4.03, 4.04 and 4.06 shall be made directly to the Persons entitled thereto, prior to 12:00 P.M. on the date when due; provided, however, that, the Borrower shall have setoff rights with respect to any Defaulting Lender with the application of any amounts payable to a Defaulting Lender to be administered by the Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 2.06(a)(iii).

(c) Whenever any payment from the Borrower shall be due on a day that is not a Business Day, the date of payment thereof shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day. If the date for any payment of principal is extended by operation of law or otherwise, interest thereon shall be payable for such extended time.

(d) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment from the Borrower is due that the Borrower will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrower has made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent on such date and the Administrative Agent may, in reliance upon such assumption, but shall not be obligated to, cause to be distributed to each Lender on such due date an amount equal to the amount then due such Lender. If and to the extent that the Borrower shall not have so made such payment, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such amount distributed to such Lender together with interest thereon, for each day from the date such amount is distributed to such Lender until the date such Lender repays such amount to the Administrative Agent, at the NYFRB Rate.

42

(e) If any Lender shall receive from the Borrower or any other Person any amount owing under any Credit Document (whether received pursuant to the exercise of any right of set-off, banker’s lien, realization upon any security held for or appropriated to such obligation or otherwise) other than in proportion to such Lender’s ratable share thereof, then such Lender shall purchase from each other Lender a participating interest in so much of the other Lenders’ Loans (and participations in Swingline Loans) as shall be necessary in order that each Lender shall share such payment with each of the other Lenders in proportion to each Lender’s ratable share; provided, that, nothing herein contained shall obligate any Lender to apply any set-off, banker’s lien or collateral security first to the obligations of the Borrower hereunder if the Borrower is obligated to such Lender pursuant to other loans or notes. If any purchasing Lender shall be required to return any excess payment received by it, such participation shall be rescinded and the purchase price restored to the extent of such return, but without interest.

Section 4.03 Compensation for Losses.

(a) If (i) the Borrower makes a prepayment of a Term Benchmark Loan, or a Conversion Date occurs for a Term Benchmark Loan, other than on the last day of the relevant Interest Period, (ii) the Borrower fails to borrow, convert, continue or prepay any Term Benchmark Loan on the date specified in any notice delivered pursuant hereto, (iii) the Borrower revokes any Borrowing Request for Term Benchmark Loans, (iv) Term Benchmark Loans (or portions thereof) are converted into ABR Loans pursuant to Section 4.05 at any time other than at the end of an Interest Period or (v) Term Benchmark Loans (or portions thereof) shall become or be declared to be due prior to the scheduled maturity thereof, then the Borrower shall pay to each Lender an amount that will compensate such Lender for any loss (other than lost profit) or premium or penalty incurred by such Lender as a result of such prepayment, conversion, declaration or revocation in respect of funds obtained for the purpose of making or maintaining such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Term Benchmark Loans, or any portion thereof. Such compensation shall include any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds.

(b) In connection with a demand for payment pursuant to this Section 4.03, a Lender shall provide to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate, signed by an officer of such Lender, setting forth in reasonable detail the amount required to be paid by the Borrower to such Lender and the computations made by such Lender to determine such amount. In the absence of demonstrable error, such certificate shall be conclusive as to the amount so required to be paid.

Section 4.04 Withholding and Additional Costs.

(a) Withholding.

43

(i) To the extent permitted by law, all payments under this Agreement and under the Revolving Credit Notes (including payments of principal and interest) shall be payable to each Lender free and clear of any and all present and future taxes, levies, imposts, duties, deductions, withholdings, fees, liabilities and similar charges other than Excluded Taxes (collectively, “Taxes”). If any Taxes are required to be withheld or deducted from any amount payable under this Agreement, then the amount payable under this Agreement shall be increased to the amount which, after deduction from such increased amount of all Taxes required to be withheld or deducted therefrom, will yield to such Lender the amount stated to be payable under this Agreement. The Borrower shall also hold each Lender harmless and indemnify it for any stamp or other taxes with respect to the preparation, execution, delivery, recording, performance or enforcement of the Credit Documents (all of which shall be included within “Taxes”). If any of the Taxes specified in this Section 4.04(a) are paid by any Lender, the Borrower shall, upon demand of such Lender, promptly reimburse such Lender for such payments, together with any interest, penalties and expenses incurred in connection therewith; provided, however, that, the Borrower shall not be required to reimburse any Lender for any penalties incurred or caused by the failure or delay on the part of such Lender to pay any of the Taxes specified in this Section 4.04(a). The Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent certificates or other valid vouchers for all Taxes or other charges deducted from or paid with respect to payments made by the Borrower hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Borrower shall be entitled, to the extent required to do so by law, to deduct or withhold (and shall not be required to make payments as otherwise required by this Section 4.04 on account of such deductions or withholdings) income or other similar taxes imposed by the United States of America from interest, fees or other amounts payable hereunder for the account of any Lender other than a Lender (A) that is a U.S. Person for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) that has the Prescribed Forms on file with the Borrower for the applicable year to the extent deduction or withholding of such taxes is not required as a result of such filing of such Prescribed Forms; provided, that, if the Borrower shall so deduct or withhold any such taxes, the Borrower shall provide a statement to the Administrative Agent and such Lender, setting forth the amount of such taxes so deducted or withheld, the applicable rate and any other information or documentation which such Lender may reasonably request for assisting such Lender to obtain any allowable credits or deductions for the taxes so deducted or withheld in the jurisdiction or jurisdictions in which such Lender is subject to tax.

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

(A) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of an income tax treaty to which the United States is a party (x) with respect to payments of interest under any Credit Document, executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E (the “Prescribed Forms”) establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “interest” article of such tax treaty and (y) with respect to any other applicable payments under any Credit Document, IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E establishing an exemption from, or reduction of, U.S. federal withholding Tax pursuant to the “business profits” or “other income” article of such tax treaty;

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

44

(C) in the case of a Foreign Lender claiming the benefits of the exemption for portfolio interest under Section 881(c) of the Code, (x) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-1 to the effect that such Foreign Lender is not a “bank” within the meaning of Section 881(c)(3)(A) of the Code, a “10 percent shareholder” of the Borrower within the meaning of Section 871(h)(3)(B) of the Code, or a “controlled foreign corporation” related to the Borrower as described in Section 881(c)(3)(C) of the Code (a “U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate”) and (y) executed copies of IRS Form W-8BEN or IRS Form W-8BEN-E; or

(D) to the extent a Foreign Lender is not the beneficial owner, executed copies of IRS Form W-8IMY, accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, IRS Form W-8BEN, IRS Form W-8BEN-E, a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-2 or Exhibit K-3, IRS Form W-9, and/or other certification documents from each beneficial owner, as applicable; provided, that, if the Foreign Lender is a partnership and one or more direct or indirect partners of such Foreign Lender are claiming the portfolio interest exemption, such Foreign Lender may provide a U.S. Tax Compliance Certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit K-4 on behalf of each such direct and indirect partner;

(iii) any Foreign Lender shall, to the extent it is legally entitled to do so, deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent (in such number of copies as shall be requested by the recipient) on or about the date on which such Foreign Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed copies of any other form prescribed by applicable law as a basis for claiming exemption from or a reduction in U.S. federal withholding Tax, duly completed, together with such supplementary documentation as may be prescribed by applicable law to permit the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine the withholding or deduction required to be made; and

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

(b) Additional Costs. Subject to Sections 4.04(c), (d) and (e):

(i) without duplication of any amounts payable described in Section 3.03 or 4.03(a), if after the date hereof, any Regulatory Change shall (1) impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve, special deposit or similar requirement against any Lender’s Commitment or Loans, (2) subject the Administrative Agent or any Lender to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Excluded Taxes (other than Taxes measured by the overall capital or net worth of the Administrative Agent or such Lender) and (C) Other Connection Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto, or (3) impose on any Lender (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) any other condition regarding this Agreement, its Commitment or the Loans and the result of any event referred to in clause (1), (2) or (3) shall be to increase the cost to such

45

Lender (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) of maintaining its Commitment or any Term Benchmark Loans made by such Lender (which increase in cost shall be calculated in accordance with such Lender’s reasonable averaging and attribution methods) by an amount which such Lender deems to be material, then, upon demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, on demand, an amount equal to such increase in cost; and

(ii) without duplication of any amounts payable described in Section 3.03 or 4.03(a), if any Lender shall have determined that any Regulatory Change relating to capital adequacy or liquidity (including any Regulatory Change made prior to the date hereof but not effective until after the date hereof), or compliance by such Lender (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) with any Regulatory Change regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law), has or would have the effect of, reducing the rate of return on capital for such Lender (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) or any corporation controlling such Lender as a consequence of its obligations under this Agreement to a level below that which such Lender (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) or such corporation could have achieved but for such Regulatory Change (taking into consideration such Lender’s (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy or liquidity), then from time to time, upon demand by such Lender, the Borrower shall pay to such Lender, on demand, such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender (or such Lender’s Applicable Lending Office) or such corporation for such reduction.

(c) Lending Office Designations. Before making any demand for payment pursuant to this Section 4.04, each Lender shall, if possible, designate a different Applicable Lending Office if such designation will avoid the need for giving such notice and will not, in the judgment of such Lender, be otherwise disadvantageous to such Lender.

(d) Certificate, Etc. In connection with any demand for payment pursuant to this Section 4.04, a Lender shall provide to the Borrower, with a copy to the Administrative Agent, a certificate, signed by an officer of such Lender, setting forth in reasonable detail the basis for such demand, the amount required to be paid by the Borrower to such Lender and the computations made by such Lender to determine such amount.

(e) Limitations; Delay in Requests. The Borrower shall not be obligated to compensate a Lender for any amount under Section 4.04(b) arising or occurring more than (i) 90 days prior to the date on which an office of such Lender primarily responsible for the administration of this Agreement obtains actual knowledge that such Lender is entitled to such compensation or (ii) nine months prior to the date that such Lender notifies the Borrower of the Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions, and of such Lender’s intention to claim compensation therefor (except that, if the Regulatory Change giving rise to such increased costs or reductions is retroactive, then the nine-month period referred to above shall be extended to include the period of retroactive effect thereof).

46

(f) FATCA. If a payment made to a Lender under any Credit Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code, as applicable), such Lender shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by any Requirement of Law (including as prescribed by Section 1471(b)(3)(C)(i) of the Code) and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Borrower and the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such ▇▇▇▇▇▇ has complied with such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this Section 4.04(f), “FATCA” shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

(g) Cooperation. The Borrower agrees, upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, promptly to execute, deliver and complete such forms, certificates and other documents, make such filings and otherwise cooperate with the Administrative Agent or such Lender, in each case as the Administrative Agent or such Lender may reasonably request from time to time, in order for the Administrative Agent or such Lender to establish that the Administrative Agent or such Lender is not subject to, or is entitled to a reduction in the amount of or exemption from, any deduction, withholding or other Taxes with respect to any payments to the Administrative Agent or such Lender for principal, interest, fees or other amounts under the Credit Documents, including United Kingdom HM Revenue & Customs’ Form DTTP2.

Section 4.05 Alternate Rate of Interest.

(a) Subject to Sections 4.05(b), (c), (d), (e) and (f), if: (i) the Administrative Agent determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan, that adequate and reasonable means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted Term SOFR (including because the Term SOFR Reference Rate is not available or published on a current basis) for such Interest Period or (ii) the Administrative Agent is advised by the Required Lenders that prior to the commencement of any Interest Period for a Term Benchmark Loan, Adjusted Term SOFR for such Interest Period will not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders (or Lender) of making or maintaining such Loan for such Interest Period; then the Administrative Agent shall give notice thereof to the Borrower and the Lenders by telephone, telecopy or electronic mail as promptly as practicable thereafter and, until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark, any request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan shall instead be deemed to be a request for a borrowing of, or conversion to, an ABR Loan; provided, that, if the circumstances giving rise to such notice affect borrowings of only one Type of Loans, then borrowings of all other Types of Loans shall be permitted. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of the notice from the Administrative Agent referred to in this Section 4.05(a), then until the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrower and the Lenders that the circumstances giving rise to such notice no longer exist with respect to the relevant Benchmark, any Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan.

47

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, if a Benchmark Transition Event and its related Benchmark Replacement Date have occurred prior to the Reference Time in respect of any setting of the then-current Benchmark, then (i) 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 Credit Document in respect of such Benchmark setting and subsequent Benchmark settings without any amendment to, or further action or consent of any other party to, this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (ii) 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 Credit Document in respect of any Benchmark setting at or after 5:00 P.M. on the fifth (5^th) 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 Credit Document so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such Benchmark Replacement from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders.

(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit 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 Credit Document.

(d) The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrower and the Lenders of (i) any occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes, (iv) the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to Section 4.05(e) and (v) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Administrative Agent or, if applicable, any Lender (or group of Lenders) pursuant to this Section 4.05, 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 Credit Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this Section 4.05.

(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Credit Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if the then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of

48

“Interest Period” for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

(f) Upon the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Borrower may revoke any request for a borrowing of, conversion to, or continuation of a Term Benchmark Loan 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, an ABR Loan. During any Benchmark Unavailability Period or at any time that a tenor for the then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Alternate Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of the Alternate Base Rate. Furthermore, if any Term Benchmark Loan is outstanding on the date of the Borrower’s receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, then until such time as a Benchmark Replacement is implemented pursuant to this Section 4.05, any such Term Benchmark Loan shall on the last day of the Interest Period applicable to such Loan, be converted by the Administrative Agent to, and shall constitute, an ABR Loan.

(g) The interest rate on a Loan denominated in dollars may be derived from an interest rate benchmark that may be discontinued or is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform. Upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, Section 4.05(b) through 4.05(f) above provides a mechanism for determining an alternative rate of interest. The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, the administration, submission, performance or any other matter related to any interest rate used in this Agreement, or with respect to any alternative or successor rate thereto, or replacement rate thereof, including without limitation, whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement reference rate will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, the existing interest rate being replaced or have the same volume or liquidity as did any existing interest rate prior to its discontinuance or unavailability. The Administrative Agent and its affiliates and/or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of any interest rate used in this Agreement or any alternative, successor or alternative rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) and/or any relevant adjustments thereto, in each case, in a manner adverse to the Borrower. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any interest rate used in this Agreement, any component thereof, or rates referenced in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the 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.

49

Section 4.06 Expenses; Indemnity; Damage Waivers.

(a) The Borrower agrees, whether or not any Loan is made, to pay or reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender all of its reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred in connection with the development, preparation, negotiation, execution, closing and syndication of, the Credit Documents and the administration of the credit facility established under the Credit Documents and any amendment, supplement or modification thereto (whether or not executed or effective) and any documents prepared in connection therewith, including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender and the maintenance of an electronic platform (including charges of SyndTrak or any similar electronic information platform) or information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement.

(b) The Borrower agrees to pay all reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees and expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender and, after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners or any Lender (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of one counsel to the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, unless (and to the extent) conflicts of interest require the use of more than one counsel) in connection with the enforcement of, and the protection of their respective rights under, any provision of any Credit Document or any amendment or supplement to this Agreement (including all such fees and expenses incurred during any “workout” or restructuring in respect of the Obligations and during any legal proceeding, including any bankruptcy proceeding).

(c) The Borrower agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners, each of the Lenders (including the Swingline Lender) and each of their respective Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors (each, an “Indemnitee”) against, and to hold each Indemnitee harmless from, any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities and related expenses, including legal counsel fees and expenses (limited, in the case of any fees and expenses of legal counsel, to the reasonable and documented out-of-pocket fees, disbursements and other charges of one firm of primary counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, and, if reasonably necessary, one firm of local counsel for all Indemnitees, taken as a whole, in each relevant material jurisdiction and, in each case, solely in the case of an actual or perceived conflict of interest, one additional firm of counsel to each group of affected Indemnitees, similarly situated and taken as a whole), incurred by or asserted against any Indemnitee arising out of, in any way connected with, or as a result of (i) the execution or delivery of any Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated by any Credit Document (including the Indemnitee’s reliance on any Credit Document Communication executed using an Electronic Signature), the performance by the parties thereto of their respective obligations under any Credit Document or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by any Credit Document, (ii) the use of the proceeds of the Loans or (iii) any claim, litigation, investigation or proceeding relating to any of the foregoing, whether or not any Indemnitee is a party thereto; provided, that, such indemnity shall not, as to any Indemnitee, be available to the extent that such losses, claims, damages, liabilities or related expenses are determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment to have resulted from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such Indemnitee.

50

(d) All amounts due under this Section 4.06 shall be payable in immediately available funds upon written demand therefor.

(e) To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower shall not assert, and hereby waives, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of, this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan, or the use of the proceeds thereof. No Indemnitee referred to in paragraph (c) above shall be liable for any damages arising from the use by unintended recipients of any information or other materials distributed by it through telecommunications, electronic or other information transmission systems in connection with this Agreement or the other Credit Documents or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby.

Section 4.07 Survival.

The provisions of Sections 4.03, 4.04, 4.06 and 9.06, shall remain operative and in full force and effect regardless of the expiration of the term of this Agreement, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, the repayment of any of the Loans, the reduction or termination of any Commitments, the invalidity or unenforceability of any term or provision of any Credit Document, or any investigation made by or on behalf of the Lenders.

Section 4.08 Replacement of a Lender.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if any Lender shall request compensation pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(i) or (ii) then, in each case, the Borrower may require that such Lender transfer all of its right, title and interest under this Agreement and such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Revolving Credit Notes to one or more of the other Lenders or any other lender identified by the Borrower and reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent (and if a Commitment is being assigned, the Swingline Lender) as a Replacement Lender which is willing to assume all of the obligations of such Lender, for consideration equal to the outstanding principal amount of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Loans and participations in Swingline Loans, together with interest thereon to the date of such transfer and all other amounts payable under the Credit Documents to such Lender on or prior to the date of such transfer (including any fees accrued hereunder and any amounts which would be payable under Section 4.03 as if all of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Loans were being prepaid in full on such date). Subject to the execution and delivery of new notes, an Assignment and Assumption, and such other documents as such Lender may reasonably require, such Replacement Lender shall be a “Lender” for all purposes hereunder. Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of the Borrower hereunder, the agreements of the Borrower contained in Sections 4.04 and 4.06 (without duplication of any payments made to such Lender by the Borrower or the Replacement Lender) shall survive for the benefit of any Lender replaced under this Section 4.08 with respect to the time prior to such replacement. Each party hereto agrees that (a) an assignment required pursuant to this Section 4.08 or Section 2.06 may be effected pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption executed by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the assignee and (b) the Lender required to make such assignment need not be a party thereto in order for such assignment to be effective and shall be deemed to have consented to an be bound by the terms thereof; provided, that, following the effectiveness of any such assignment, the other parties to such assignment agree to execute and deliver such documents necessary to evidence such assignment as reasonably requested by the applicable Lender; provided, further, that, any such documents shall be without recourse to or warranty by the parties thereto.

(e) Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings, claims or disputes pending, or to the best knowledge of the Borrower, threatened at law, in equity, in arbitration or before any Governmental Authority, against the Borrower, or its Subsidiaries or any of their respective Property which (i) purport to affect or pertain to this Agreement, or any of the transactions contemplated hereby; or (ii) would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(g) ERISA Compliance. (i) Each Qualified Plan is in compliance in all material respects with the applicable provisions of ERISA, the Code and other federal or state law, including all requirements under the Code or ERISA for filing reports (which are true and correct in all material respects as of the date filed), and to the best knowledge of the Borrower, benefits have been paid in accordance with the provisions of such Plan.

(i) Each Qualified Plan has been determined by the IRS to qualify under Section 401 of the Code or is the subject of a favorable IRS opinion or advisory letter, the IRS has not determined that any amendment to any Qualified Plan does not qualify under Section 401 of the Code, and the trusts created thereunder have been determined to be exempt from tax under the provisions of Section 501 of the Code, and to the best knowledge of the Borrower, nothing has occurred which would cause the loss of such qualification or tax-exempt status.

(ii) There is no material outstanding liability under Title IV of ERISA (other than the liability of the Plan to pay benefits) with respect to any Plan maintained or sponsored by the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate (as to which the Borrower is or may be liable), or with respect to any Plan to which the Borrower or any ERISA Affiliate (wherein the Borrower is or may be liable) contributes or is obligated to contribute.

(iii) None of the Pension Plans has any Unfunded Pension Liability in excess of ten percent (10%) of the Net Worth as to which the Borrower is or may be liable.

53

(iv) No ERISA Event has occurred or is reasonably expected to occur with respect to any Plan maintained or sponsored by the Borrower or to which the Borrower is obligated to contribute.

(vi) The Borrower has not incurred nor reasonably expects to incur (i) any liability (and no event has occurred which, with the giving of notice under Section 4219 of ERISA, would result in such liability) under Section 4201 or 4243 of ERISA with respect to a Multiemployer Plan or (ii) any liability under Title IV of ERISA (other than premiums due and not delinquent under Section 4007 of ERISA) with respect to a Qualified Plan except for liability that would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(vii) The Borrower has not transferred any Unfunded Pension Liability to any entity other than an ERISA Affiliate or otherwise engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or 4212(c) of ERISA except as would not be reasonably expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(viii) The Borrower has not engaged, directly or indirectly, in a non-exempt prohibited transaction (as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or Section 406 of ERISA) in connection with any Plan which would have a Material Adverse Effect.

(h) Use of Proceeds; Margin Regulations. No Loans nor part of the proceeds of any Loan will be used, whether directly or indirectly, (i) to purchase or carry Margin Stock, (ii) to repay or otherwise refinance indebtedness of the Borrower or others incurred to purchase or carry Margin Stock, (iii) to extend credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying any Margin Stock, or (iv) for any other purpose in each of clauses (i) through (iv), in violation of any of the regulations of the Federal Reserve Board (including Regulations T, U and X). The Borrower is not engaged and will not engage, principally or as one of its important activities, in the business of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock, or extending credit for the purpose of purchasing or carrying Margin Stock. Following the application of the proceeds of each borrowing of Loans, not more than 25% of the value of the assets either of the Borrower only or of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries on a consolidated basis will be Margin Stock.

(i) Title to Property. The Borrower and each of its Significant Subsidiaries has sufficient and legal title in fee simple to or valid leasehold interest in all its real Property, except for such defects in title as could not, individually or in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. Such Property is free and clear of all Liens, except Permitted Liens.

54

(j) Taxes. The Borrower and its Subsidiaries have filed all federal and other material tax returns and reports required to be filed and have paid all federal and other material taxes, assessments, fees and other governmental charges levied or imposed upon them or their respective Property, income or assets otherwise due and payable except (a) those which are being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been provided in accordance with GAAP, and (b) those the nonpayment of which would not, in the aggregate, have a Material Adverse Effect. To the best knowledge of the Borrower, there is no proposed tax assessment against the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries which would, if the assessment were made, have a Material Adverse Effect.

(k) Financial Condition.

ARTICLE IX

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Section 9.01 The Agency.

(a) Each Lender appoints JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as its agent hereunder and irrevocably authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such action on its behalf and to exercise such powers hereunder as are specifically delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof, together with such powers as are reasonably incidental thereto, and the Administrative Agent ▇▇▇▇▇▇ accepts such appointment subject to the terms hereof. The provisions of this Article IX are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and the Borrower shall not have rights as a third-party beneficiary of any of such provisions.

(b) In performing its functions and duties hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the Administrative Agent is acting solely on behalf of the Lenders (except in limited circumstances expressly provided for herein relating to the maintenance of the Register), and its duties are entirely mechanical and administrative in nature. The motivations of the Administrative Agent are commercial in nature and not to invest in the general performance or operations of the Borrower. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing:

71

(i) the Administrative Agent does not assume and shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligation or duty or any other relationship as the agent, fiduciary or trustee of or for any Lender other than as expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, regardless of whether a Default or an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing (and it is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” (or any similar term) herein or in any other Credit Document with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary duty or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law, and that such term is used as a matter of market custom and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties); additionally, each Lender agrees that it will not assert any claim against the Administrative Agent based on an alleged breach of fiduciary duty by the Administrative Agent in connection with this Agreement and/or the transactions contemplated hereby; and

(ii) nothing in this Agreement or any Credit Document shall require the Administrative Agent to account to any Lender for any sum or the profit element of any sum received by the Administrative Agent for its own account.

(c) The provisions of this Article are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and, except solely to the extent of the Borrower’s rights to consent pursuant to and subject to the conditions set forth in this Article, none of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, or any of their respective Affiliates, shall have any rights as a third party beneficiary under any such provisions.

Section 9.02 Exculpatory Provisions.

The Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Joint Bookrunners, as applicable, shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Credit Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Joint Bookrunners, as applicable:

(a) shall not be subject to any fiduciary or other implied duties, regardless of whether a Default has occurred and is continuing;

(b) shall not have any duty to take any discretionary action or exercise any discretionary powers, except discretionary rights and powers expressly contemplated hereby or by the other Credit Documents that the Administrative Agent is required to exercise as directed in writing by the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be expressly provided for herein or in the other Credit Documents); provided, that, the Administrative Agent shall not be required to take any action that, in its opinion or the opinion of its counsel, may expose the Administrative Agent to liability or that is contrary to any Credit Document or applicable law, including for the avoidance of doubt any action that may be in violation of the automatic stay under any debtor relief law or that may effect a forfeiture, modification or termination of property of a Defaulting Lender in violation of any debtor relief law;

72

(c) shall not have any duty or responsibility to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, to any Lender any credit or other information concerning the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of any of the Borrower or any of its Affiliates, that is communicated to, obtained or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers or the Joint Bookrunners or any of their respective Affiliates, directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in any capacity, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein;

(d) shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it (i) with the consent or at the request of the Required Lenders (or such other number or percentage of the Lenders as shall be necessary, or as the Administrative Agent shall believe in good faith shall be necessary, under the circumstances as provided in Section 11.06) or (ii) in the absence of its own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a court of competent jurisdiction by final and nonappealable judgment. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed not to have knowledge of any Default unless and until notice describing such Default is given in writing to the Administrative Agent by the Borrower or a Lender; and

(e) shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any of the covenants, agreements or other terms or conditions set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Credit Document or any other agreement, instrument or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Article VI or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

The Administrative Agent shall not be bound by any waiver, amendment, supplement, or modification of this Agreement which affects its duties hereunder, unless it shall have given its prior written consent thereto. Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Administrative Agent to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur any financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

Section 9.03 Limitation of Liabilities.

Each of the Lenders and the Borrower agree that (i) neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them hereunder except for its or their own gross negligence or willful misconduct as determined by a final and nonappealable ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction, (ii) neither the Administrative Agent nor any of its officers or employees shall be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them in good faith in reliance upon the advice of counsel, independent public accountants or other experts selected by the Administrative Agent, (iii) the Administrative Agent makes no warranty or representation to any Lender and shall not be

73

responsible to any Lender for any statements, warranties or representations made by or on behalf of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof in connection with this Agreement or any other Credit Document and (iv) the Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon any notice, consent, certificate, statement or other document (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed by it to be genuine and correct and to have been signed and/or sent by the proper Persons. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan.

Section 9.04 The Administrative Agent as a Lender.

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

Section 9.05 Lender Credit Decision.

Neither the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Joint Bookrunner, nor any of their respective Affiliates, officers or employees has any responsibility for, gives any guaranty in respect of, nor makes any representation to the Lenders as to, (i) the condition, financial or otherwise, of the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or the truth of any representation or warranty given or made in this Agreement, or in connection herewith or (ii) the validity, execution, sufficiency, effectiveness, construction, adequacy, enforceability or value of this Agreement or any other document or instrument related hereto. Except as specifically provided herein, neither the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Joint Bookrunner, nor any of their respective Affiliates, officers or employees shall have any duty or responsibility, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any credit or other information with respect to the operations, business, property, condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, whether such information comes into such Person’s possession on or before the date hereof or at any time thereafter. Each Lender acknowledges that (i) it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Joint Bookrunner or any other Lender, based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and (ii) all information reviewed by it in its credit analysis or otherwise in connection herewith has been provided solely by or on behalf of the Borrower, and the Administrative Agent, the Joint Lead Arrangers and the Joint

74

Bookrunners have no responsibility for such information. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent, any Joint Lead Arranger, any Joint Bookrunner or any other Lender, based on such documents and information (which may contain material, non-public information within the meaning of the United States securities laws concerning the Borrower and its Affiliates) as it shall deem appropriate at the time, continue to make its own credit decisions in taking or not taking action under any Credit Document.

The Lenders acknowledge that there may be a constant flow of information (including information which may be subject to confidentiality obligations in favor of the Borrower) between the Borrower and its Affiliates, on the one hand, and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and its Affiliates, on the other hand. Without limiting the foregoing, the Borrower or its Affiliates may provide information, including updates to previously provided information to JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and/or its Affiliates acting in different capacities, including as Lender, issuing bank, lead bank, arranger or potential securities investor, independent of such entity’s role as administrative agent hereunder. The Lenders acknowledge that neither JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. nor its Affiliates shall be under any obligation to provide any of the foregoing information to them. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in any other Credit Document, except for notices, reports and other documents expressly required to be furnished to the Lenders by the Administrative Agent herein, the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty or responsibility to provide, and shall not be liable for the failure to provide, any Lender with any credit or other information concerning the Loans, the Lenders, the business, prospects, operations, property, financial and other condition or creditworthiness of the Borrower or any of its respective Affiliates that is communicated to, obtained by, or in the possession of, the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity, including any information obtained by the Administrative Agent in the course of communications among the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, any Affiliate thereof or any other Person. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any such information may (but shall not be required to) be shared by the Administrative Agent with one or more Lenders, or any formal or informal committee or ad hoc group of such Lenders, including at the direction of the Borrower.

Section 9.06 Indemnification.

Each Lender agrees to indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender, to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrower, ratably in proportion to its Commitment, from and against any and all liabilities, obligations, losses, claims, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements of any kind or nature whatsoever which may be imposed on, incurred by, or asserted against the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender in any way relating to or arising out of this Agreement, or any action taken or omitted to be taken by the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender hereunder; provided, that, no Lender shall be liable for any portion of such liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses or disbursements resulting from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender or any of their respective officers or employees as determined by a final and nonappealable ruling by a court of competent jurisdiction. Without limiting the foregoing, each ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to reimburse the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender promptly upon demand for its ratable share of any out-of-pocket expenses (including fees and disbursements of counsel incurred by the Administrative Agent or the

75

Swingline Lender) in connection with the preparation, execution or enforcement of, or legal advice in respect of rights or responsibilities under, any Credit Document or any amendments or supplements thereto, to the extent that the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender is not reimbursed for such expenses by the Borrower. Except for action expressly required of the Administrative Agent or the Swingline Lender hereunder, the Administrative Agent and the Swingline Lender shall in all cases be fully justified in failing or refusing to act hereunder unless it shall receive further assurances to its satisfaction from the Lenders of their indemnification obligations under this Section 9.06 against any and all liability and expense that may be incurred by it by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action.

Section 9.07 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, subject to the prior written approval of the Borrower (which approval may not be unreasonably withheld and shall not be required while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing), to appoint a successor, which shall be a bank with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within 30 days after the retiring Administrative 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 Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided, that, in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender. Whether or not a successor 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 (1) the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Credit Documents and (2) except for any indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 4.04(a) and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date), and the retiring Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder or under the other Credit Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above in this Section 9.07). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring Administrative Agent’s resignation hereunder and under the other Credit Documents, the provisions of this Article IX and Section 4.06 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring Administrative Agent, its sub agents and their respective directors, officers, employees, agents and advisors in respect of any actions taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the other Credit Documents, including in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

76

Section 9.08 Delegation of Duties.

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

Section 9.09 Syndication and Other Agents.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Joint Lead Arrangers, the Joint Bookrunners and the Co-Syndication Agents named on the cover page of this Agreement shall not have any duties or liabilities under this Agreement, except in their respective capacities, if any, as Lenders.

ARTICLE X

EVIDENCE OF LOANS; TRANSFERS

Section 10.01 Evidence of Loans; Revolving Credit Notes.

The Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loans shall be evidenced by Revolving Credit Notes if requested by each Lender, one such payable to each such Lender. The Revolving Credit Note of each Lender shall (i) be in the principal amount of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s Commitment, (ii) be dated the Closing Date (or the effective date on which such Lender becomes a Lender hereunder) and (iii) be stated to mature on the Termination Date and bear interest from its date until maturity on the principal balance (from time to time outstanding thereunder) payable at the rates and in the manner provided herein. Each Lender is authorized to indicate upon the grid attached to its Revolving Credit Note all Loans made by it pursuant to this Agreement, interest elections and payments of principal and interest thereon. Such notations shall be presumptive, absent manifest error, as to the aggregate unpaid principal amount of all Loans made by such Lender, and interest due thereon, but the failure by any Lender to make such notations or the inaccuracy or incompleteness of any such notations shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or under the Revolving Credit Notes.

77

Section 10.02 Participations.

(a) Any Lender may at any time grant to one or more financial institutions (but not to a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or a subsidiary thereof or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (each a “Participant”) participating interests in its Commitment or any or all of its Loans. In the event of any such grant by a Lender of a participating interest to a Participant, whether or not upon notice to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, such Lender shall remain responsible for the performance of its obligations hereunder, and, except to the extent such participating interest has been granted pursuant to Section 4.02(e), the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement pursuant to which any Lender may grant such a participating interest shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right and responsibility to enforce the obligations of the Borrower hereunder including the right to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided, that, such participation agreement may provide that such Lender will not agree to any modification, amendment or waiver of this Agreement described in clauses (i) through (vi), inclusive, of Section 11.06(b) without the consent of the Participant.

(b) Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under this Agreement (the “Participant Register”); provided, that, no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose any portion of the Participant Register to any Person (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant’s interest in any Commitments, Loans, or its other obligations under this Agreement) except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Commitment, Loan, or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive, 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.

(c) The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 4.03 and 4.04 (subject to the requirements and limitations in Section 4.04, including the requirements under Section 4.04(a) (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 4.04(a) shall be delivered to the participating Lender)) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to Section 10.03; provided, that, such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Section 4.08 as if it were an assignee under Section 10.03; and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.04(b), 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 Regulatory Change that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation.

78

(d) To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 11.04 as though it were a Lender; provided, that, such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 4.02(e) as though it were a Lender.

Section 10.03 Assignments.

(a) Any Lender may at any time assign to one or more financial institutions (but not to a natural Person, or a holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person, or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries), other than a Defaulting Lender or a subsidiary thereof or any financial institution who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute a Defaulting Lender or a subsidiary thereof (each an “Assignee”), all, or a proportionate part of all, of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, and such Assignee shall assume such rights and obligations, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption, with (and subject to) the signed consent of the Borrower (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed and which consent shall be deemed to have been given if the Borrower has not responded within ten Business Days of its receipt of a written request for such consent), the Administrative Agent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) and the Swingline Lender; provided, that, (i) each such assignment (other than assignments (x) to its Affiliates, (y) to an Approved Fund, or (z) of its entire interest) shall be in a minimum amount of $10,000,000 or in integral multiples of $1,000,000 in excess thereof (unless otherwise approved by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), and (ii) after giving effect to each such assignment, the Commitment of the assignor (if it has not assigned its entire interest) and of the assignee shall be at least $10,000,000; provided, further, that, the consent of the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall not be required in the case of an assignment or other transfer by any Lender to an Affiliate of such Lender, to another Lender, or to an Approved Fund; provided, further, that, any consent of the Borrower otherwise required under this Section shall not be required if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Upon execution and delivery of an Assignment and Assumption (which may be in the form of electronic documentation or generated by use of an electronic platform) and payment by such Assignee to such transferring Lender of an amount equal to the purchase price agreed between such transferring Lender and such Assignee and payment by the transferring Lender or the Assignee of an assignment fee of $3,500 to the Administrative Agent (unless such fee is waived by the Administrative Agent in its sole discretion), such Assignee shall be a Lender party to this Agreement and shall have all the rights and obligations of a Lender with a Commitment as set forth in such Assignment and Assumption, and the transferring Lender shall be released from its obligations hereunder to a corresponding extent, and no further consent or action by any party shall be required.

(b) No Assignee of any transferring ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s rights shall be entitled to receive any greater payment under Section 4.03 or 4.04 than such Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the rights transferred, unless such transfer is made with the Borrower’s prior written consent or by reason of the provisions of Section 4.04(c) requiring such transferring Lender to designate a different Applicable Lending Office under certain circumstances or at a time when the circumstances giving rise to such payment did not exist.

79

(c) The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and stated interest) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

Section 10.04 Certain Pledges.

Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Lender may at any time create a security interest in, or pledge, all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement and any Revolving Credit Note held by it in favor of any Federal Reserve Bank in accordance with Federal Reserve Board Regulation A (or any successor provision) or U.S. Treasury Regulation 31 C.F.R. § 203.14 (or any successor provision), and such Federal Reserve Bank may enforce such pledge or security interest in any manner permitted under applicable law.

(a) The Lenders and the Administrative Agent agree (on behalf of themselves and each of their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives) to take normal and reasonable precautions and exercise due care to maintain the confidentiality of all Confidential Information (provided, that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential) provided to them by the Borrower or any Subsidiary or by the Administrative Agent on the Borrower’s or any Subsidiary’s behalf in connection with this Agreement and neither the Administrative Agent, any Lender, nor any of their Affiliates, directors, officers, employees and representatives shall use any such information for any purpose or in any manner other than pursuant to the terms contemplated by this Agreement, except to the extent such information (a) was or becomes generally available to the public other than as a result of a disclosure by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or (b) was or becomes available on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrower; provided, that, such source is not bound by a confidentiality agreement with the Borrower known to the Administrative Agent or affected Lender(s); provided, further, that, nothing herein shall limit the disclosure of any such information (i) to the extent required by statute, rule, regulation or judicial process; (ii) to counsel for any of the Lenders or the Administrative Agent; (iii) to bank examiners, auditors or accountants; (iv) to the Administrative

Each Lender and the Administrative Agent agree, unless specifically prohibited by applicable law or court order, to notify the Borrower of any request for disclosure of any such Confidential Information (x) by any Governmental Authority or representative thereof (other than any such request in connection with an examination of such Person’s financial condition by such Governmental Authority) or (y) pursuant to legal process. In addition, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders may disclose the existence of this Agreement and information about this Agreement to market data collectors, similar service providers to the lending industry and service providers to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in connection with the administration of this Agreement, the other Credit Documents, and the Commitments. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing herein prohibits any individual from communicating or disclosing information regarding suspected violations of laws, rules, or regulations to a governmental, regulatory, or self-regulatory authority without any notification to any Person.

(b) This Agreement is intended to provide express authorization to each of the Lenders and their Affiliates (and each employee, representative, or other agent of each Lender and its of Affiliates) to disclose to any and all Persons of any kind, the “tax treatment” and “tax structure” (in each case, within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.6011-4) of the transactions contemplated hereby and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to the Lenders or any of them or any of their Affiliates (and any such employees, representatives or other agents) relating to such tax treatment and structure; provided, that, with respect to any document or similar item that in either case contains information concerning the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby as well as other information, this authorization shall only apply to such portions of the document or similar item that relate to the tax treatment or tax structure of the transactions contemplated hereby.

Except to the extent expressly set forth therein, any waiver shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which such waiver is given.

(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this Agreement may be amended and restated or amended without the consent of any Lender (but with the consent of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent) if, upon giving effect to such amendment and restatement or amendment, such Lender shall no longer be a party to this Agreement (as so amended and restated or amended), the Commitments of such Lender shall have terminated, such Lender shall have no other commitment or other obligation hereunder and shall have been paid in full all principal, interest and other amounts owing to it or accrued for its account under this Agreement.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, if the Administrative Agent and the Borrower acting together identify any ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect in any provision of this Agreement or any other Credit Document (including the schedules and exhibits thereto), then the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall be permitted to amend, modify or supplement such provision to cure such ambiguity, omission, mistake, typographical error or other defect, and such amendment shall become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement.

Section 11.07 Cumulative Rights; No Waiver.

Each and every right granted to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder or under any other document delivered in connection herewith, or allowed them by law or equity, shall be cumulative and not exclusive and may be exercised from time to time. No failure on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to exercise, and no delay in exercising, any right will operate as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any right preclude any other or future exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right.

Section 11.08 Notices.

(a) Any communication, demand or notice to be given hereunder will be duly given when delivered in writing, by telecopy or by electronic communications to a party at its address as indicated below or such other address as such party may specify in a notice to each other party hereto in the manner provided for herein. A communication, demand or notice given pursuant to this Section 11.08 shall be addressed:

If to the Borrower, the Swingline Lender or the Administrative Agent, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified for such Person on Schedule II.

If to any other Lender, to the address, facsimile number, electronic mail address or telephone number specified in its Administrative Questionnaire (including, as appropriate, notices delivered solely to the Person designated by a Lender on its Administrative Questionnaire then in effect for the delivery of notices that may contain material non-public information relating to the Borrower).

84

(b) Each of the Borrower and the Administrative Agent may change its address, facsimile or telephone number for notices and other communications hereunder by notice to the other parties hereto. In addition, each ▇▇▇▇▇▇ agrees to notify the Administrative Agent from time to time to ensure that the Administrative Agent has on record (i) an effective address, contact name, telephone number, facsimile number and electronic mail address to which notices and other communications may be sent and (ii) accurate wire instructions for such Lender.

This Section 11.08 shall not apply to notices referred to in Article II or III of this Agreement, except to the extent set forth therein.

(c) Notices and other communications sent by hand or overnight courier service, or mailed by certified or registered mail, shall be deemed to have been given when received; notices and other communications sent by telecopier shall be deemed to have been given when sent (except that, if not given during normal business hours for the recipient, shall be deemed to have been given at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient). Notices and other communications delivered through Approved Electronic Platforms to the extent provided in clause (d) below, shall be effective as provided in such clause (d).

(d) Notices and other communications to the Borrower and the Lenders hereunder may be delivered or furnished by using Approved Electronic Platforms pursuant to procedures approved by the Administrative Agent; provided, that, the foregoing shall not apply to notices pursuant to Article II or Section 3.01 unless otherwise agreed by the Administrative Agent and the applicable Lender. The Administrative Agent or the Borrower may, in its discretion, agree to accept notices and other communications to it hereunder by electronic communications pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, that, approval of such procedures may be limited to particular notices or communications. Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (i) notices and other communications sent to an e-mail address shall be deemed received upon the sender’s receipt of an acknowledgment from the intended recipient (such as by the “return receipt requested” function, as available, return e-mail or other written acknowledgment); provided, that, if such notice or other communication is not sent during the normal business hours of the recipient, such notice or communication shall be deemed to have been sent at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (ii) notices or communications posted to an Internet or intranet website shall be deemed received upon the deemed receipt by the intended recipient at its e-mail address as described in the foregoing clause (i) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

(e) The Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make any Communications available to the Lenders by posting the Communications on IntraLinks^™, DebtDomain, SyndTrak, ClearPar or any other electronic platform chosen by the Administrative Agent to be its electronic transmission system (the “Approved Electronic Platform”). Although the Approved Electronic Platform and its primary web portal are secured with generally-applicable security procedures and policies implemented or modified by the Administrative Agent from time to time (including, as of the 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 and the Borrower acknowledges and agrees that the

85

distribution of material through an electronic medium is not necessarily secure, that the Administrative Agent is not responsible for approving or vetting the representatives or contacts of any Lender that are added to the Approved Electronic Platform, and that there may be confidentiality and other risks associated with such distribution. Each of the Lenders and the Borrower hereby approves distribution of the Communications through the Approved Electronic Platform and understands and assumes the risks of such distribution. THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”. THE APPLICABLE PARTIES (AS DEFINED BELOW) DO NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY OR COMPLETENESS OF THE COMMUNICATIONS, OR THE ADEQUACY OF THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM LIABILITY FOR ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM AND THE COMMUNICATIONS. NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT OF THIRD-PARTY RIGHTS OR FREEDOM FROM VIRUSES OR OTHER CODE DEFECTS, IS MADE BY THE APPLICABLE PARTIES IN CONNECTION WITH THE COMMUNICATIONS OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. IN NO EVENT SHALL THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT, ANY JOINT LEAD ARRANGER, ANY JOINT BOOKRUNNER OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS AND ADVISORS (COLLECTIVELY, “APPLICABLE PARTIES”) HAVE ANY LIABILITY TO THE BORROWER, ANY LENDER 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 THE BORROWER’S OR THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT’S TRANSMISSION OF COMMUNICATIONS THROUGH THE INTERNET OR THE APPROVED ELECTRONIC PLATFORM. Each Lender 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 Credit Documents. Each Lender agrees (1) to notify the Administrative Agent in writing (which could be in the form of electronic communication) from time to time of such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s email address to which the foregoing notice may be sent by electronic transmission and (2) that the foregoing notice may be sent to such email address. Each of the Lenders and the Borrower agrees that the Administrative Agent may, but (except as may be required by applicable law) shall not be obligated to, store the Communications on the Approved Electronic Platform in accordance with the Administrative Agent’s generally applicable document retention procedures and policies. Nothing herein shall prejudice the right of the Administrative Agent or any Lender to give any notice or other communication pursuant to any Credit Document in any other manner specified in such Credit Document.

(f) The Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall be entitled to rely and act upon any notices given by the Borrower even if such notices were not made in a manner specified herein, were incomplete or were not preceded or followed by any other form of notice specified herein. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

86

Section 11.09 Separability.

In case any one or more of the provisions contained in any Credit Document shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any law, the validity, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions contained herein or in any other Credit Document shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 11.10 Parties in Interest.

This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the Borrower and the Lenders and their respective successors and assigns, except that the Borrower may not assign any of its rights hereunder without the prior written consent of all of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent, and any purported assignment by the Borrower without such consent shall be void.

Section 11.11 Electronic Execution; Electronic Records; Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto on different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Credit Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Article VI, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof which, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto, and thereafter shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of (x) this Agreement, (y) any other Credit Document and/or (z) any document, amendment, approval, consent, information, notice (including, for the avoidance of doubt, any notice delivered pursuant to Section 11.08), certificate, request, statement, disclosure or authorization related to this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or the transactions contemplated hereby and/or thereby (each an “Ancillary Document”) that is an Electronic Signature transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement, such other Credit Document or such Ancillary Document, as applicable. The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery,” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall be deemed to include Electronic Signatures, deliveries or the keeping of records in any electronic form (including deliveries by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page), each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be; provided that nothing herein shall require the Administrative Agent to accept Electronic Signatures in any form or format without its prior written consent and pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided, further, without limiting the foregoing, (i) to the extent the Administrative Agent has

87

agreed to accept any Electronic Signature, the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders shall be entitled to rely on such Electronic Signature purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower without further verification thereof and without any obligation to review the appearance or form of any such Electronic signature and (ii) upon the request of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any Electronic Signature shall be promptly followed by a manually executed counterpart. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrower hereby (A) agrees that, for all purposes, including without limitation, in connection with any workout, restructuring, enforcement of remedies, bankruptcy proceedings or litigation among the Administrative Agent, the Lenders, and the Borrower, Electronic Signatures transmitted by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page and/or any electronic images of this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as any paper original, (B) the Administrative Agent and each of the Lenders may, at its option, create one or more copies of this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document in the form of an imaged electronic record in any format, which shall be deemed created in the ordinary course of such Person’s business, and destroy the original paper document (and all such electronic records shall be considered an original for all purposes and shall have the same legal effect, validity and enforceability as a paper record), (C) waives any argument, defense or right to contest the legal effect, validity or enforceability of this Agreement, any other Credit Document and/or any Ancillary Document based solely on the lack of paper original copies of this Agreement, such other Credit Document and/or such Ancillary Document, respectively, including with respect to any signature pages thereto and (D) waives any claim against any Lender for any Liabilities arising solely from the Administrative Agent’s and/or any Lender’s reliance on or use of Electronic Signatures and/or transmissions by telecopy, emailed pdf. or any other electronic means that reproduces an image of an actual executed signature page, including any Liabilities arising as a result of the failure of the Borrower to use any available security measures in connection with the execution, delivery or transmission of any Electronic Signature.

Section 11.12 USA Patriot Act Notice.

Each Lender hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the USA Patriot Act (Title III of Pub. L. 107-56 (signed into law October 26, 2001)) (the “Act”), it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, which information includes the names, addresses and tax identification numbers of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries, and other information that will allow such Lender to identify the Borrower and its Subsidiaries in accordance with the Act.

Section 11.15 Acknowledgment Regarding Any Supported QFCs.

(a) To the extent that the Credit Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for hedge agreements or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support” and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ 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 Credit 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):

(b) 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

90

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 Credit 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 Credit 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.

(c) As used in this Section 11.15, the following terms have the following meanings:

“BHC Act Affiliate” of a party means an “affiliate” (as such term is defined under, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 U.S.C. 1841(k)) of such party.

(i) a “covered entity” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 252.82(b);

(ii) a “covered bank” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 47.3(b); or

(iii) a “covered FSI” as that term is defined in, and interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. § 382.2(b).

“Default Right” has the meaning assigned to that term in, and shall be interpreted in accordance with, 12 C.F.R. §§ 252.81, 47.2 or 382.1, as applicable.

Section 11.16 Recovery of Erroneous Payments.

(a) Each Lender hereby agrees that (i) if the Administrative Agent notifies such Lender that the Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion that any funds received by such Lender from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (whether as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees or otherwise; individually and collectively, a “Payment”) were erroneously transmitted to such Lender (whether or not known to such Lender), and demands the return of such Payment (or a portion thereof), such Lender shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent

A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender under this Section 11.16 shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b) Each Lender hereby further agrees that if it receives a Payment from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates (i) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such Payment (a “Payment Notice”) or (ii) that was not preceded or accompanied by a Payment Notice, it shall be on notice, in each such case, that an error has been made with respect to such Payment. Each Lender agrees that, in each such case, or if it otherwise becomes aware a Payment (or portion thereof) may have been sent in error, such Lender shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent of such occurrence and, upon demand from the Administrative Agent, it shall promptly, but in no event later than one (1) Business Day thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made in same day funds, together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Lender to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent at the greater of the NYFRB Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect.

(c) The Borrower hereby agrees that (i) in the event an erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) are not recovered from any Lender that has received such Payment (or portion thereof) for any reason, the Administrative Agent shall be subrogated to all the rights of such Lender with respect to such amount and (ii) an erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by the Borrower 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 Administrative Agent from the Borrower for the purpose of making a payment on the Obligations.

(d) Each party’s obligations under this Section 11.16 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender, the termination of the Commitments or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations under any Credit Document.
