(i) The Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, shall determine the Spot Rates as of each Revaluation Date to be used for calculating Dollar Equivalent amounts of any outstanding Loans denominated in Alternative Currencies. Such Spot Rates shall become effective as of such Revaluation Date and shall be the Spot Rates employed in converting any amounts between the applicable currencies until the next Revaluation Date to occur. Except for purposes of financial statements delivered by the Borrowers hereunder or calculating financial covenants hereunder or except as otherwise provided herein, the applicable amount of any currency (other than Dollars) for purposes of the Loan Documents shall be such Dollar Equivalent amount as so determined by the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable. For purposes hereof, the term "Spot Rates" means, for a currency, the rate determined by the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, to be the rate quoted by the Person acting in such capacity as the spot rate for the purchase by such Person of such currency with another currency through its principal foreign exchange trading office at approximately 11:00 a.m. on the date two (2) Business Days prior to the date as of which the foreign exchange computation is made; provided that the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, may obtain such spot rate from another financial institution designated by the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, if the Person acting in such capacity does not have as of the date of determination a spot buying rate for any such currency; and provided further that the LC Issuer may use such spot rate quoted on the date as of which the foreign exchange computation is made in the case of any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency; it being understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as applicable, shall endeavor to obtain the most favorable spot buying rate, but it shall have no obligation or liability for its failure to do so; and the term "Revaluation Date" means, with respect to any Letter of Credit, each of the following: (a) each date of issuance of a Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, (b) each date of an amendment of any such Letter of Credit having the effect of increasing the amount thereof (solely with respect to the increased amount), (c) each date of any payment by the LC Issuer under any Letter of Credit denominated in an Alternative Currency, (d) in the case of the existing Letters of Credit, such additional dates as the existing LC Issuer shall determine, and (e) such additional dates as the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer shall determine.

(ii) Wherever in this Agreement an amount is expressed in Dollars, but a calculation may require an Alternative Currency, such amount shall be the equivalent amount thereof in the applicable Alternative Currency, as determined by the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer, as the case may be, at such time on the basis of the Spot Rate (determined in respect of the most recent Revaluation Date) for the purchase of such Alternative Currency with Dollars.

(i) The Borrowers may from time to time request that Letters of Credit be issued in a currency other than those specifically listed in the definition of “Alternative Currency;” provided that such requested currency is a lawful currency (other than Dollars) that is readily available and freely transferable and convertible into Dollars. In the case of any such request with respect to the issuance of Letters of Credit, such request shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer (and any Lender participating in such Letter of Credit, if applicable), in their sole discretion.

(ii) Any such request shall be made to the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m., ten (10) Business Days prior to the date of the desired Letter of Credit issuance (or such other time or date as may be agreed by the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer, in their sole discretion). In each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the LC Issuer which shall promptly, in turn, notify each Lender participating in such Letter of Credit thereof. The LC Issuer and each applicable Lender shall notify the

Administrative Agent, not later than 11:00 a.m., five (5) Business Days after receipt of such request whether it consents, in its sole discretion, to the issuance of Letters of Credit, as the case may be, in such requested currency.

(iii) Any failure by the LC Issuer and/or any participant Lender to respond to such request within the time period specified in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to be a refusal by the LC Issuer to permit Letters of Credit to be issued in such requested currency. If the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer (and the applicable participant Lenders, as the case may be) consent to the issuance of Letters of Credit in such requested currency, the Administrative Agent shall so notify the Borrowers and such currency shall thereupon be deemed for all purposes to be an Alternative Currency hereunder for purposes of any Letter of Credit issuances. If the Administrative Agent shall fail to obtain consent to any request for an additional currency required hereunder, the Administrative Agent shall promptly so notify the Borrowers.

(d) Change of Currency.

(i) Each obligation of the Borrowers to make a payment denominated in the national currency unit of any member state of the European Union that adopts the Euro as its lawful currency after the date hereof shall be redenominated into Euro at the time of such adoption (in accordance with the legislative measures of the European Council). If, in relation to the currency of any such member state, the basis of accrual of interest expressed in this Agreement in respect of that currency shall be inconsistent with any convention or practice in the London interbank market for the basis of accrual of interest in respect of the Euro, such expressed basis shall be replaced by such convention or practice with effect from the date on which such member state adopts the Euro as its lawful currency; provided that if any Letter of Credit in the currency of such member state is outstanding immediately prior to such date, such replacement shall take effect, with respect to such Letter of Credit upon the earliest date on which each Letter of Credit is renewed, extended or expired.

(ii) Each provision of this Agreement shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect the adoption of the Euro by any member state of the European Union and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the Euro.

(iii) Each provision of this Agreement also shall be subject to such reasonable changes of construction as the Administrative Agent may from time to time specify to be appropriate to reflect a change in currency of any other country and any relevant market conventions or practices relating to the change in currency.

(e) Rates

(a). The Administrative Agent does not warrant or accept any responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to, (a) the continuation of, administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, any Adjusted Daily Simple RFR, the Eurocurrency Rate, the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate or any other Benchmark, or any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, or with respect to any alternative, successor or replacement rate thereto (including any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement), as it may or may not be adjusted pursuant to Exhibit 3 attached hereto, will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, any Adjusted Daily Simple RFR, the Eurocurrency Rate, the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, such Benchmark or any other Benchmark prior to its discontinuance or unavailability, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Conforming Changes. The Administrative Agent and its Affiliates or other related entities may engage in transactions that affect the calculation of a Benchmark, any alternative, successor or replacement rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) or any relevant adjustments thereto and such transactions may be adverse to the Borrowers. The Administrative Agent may select information sources or services in its reasonable discretion to ascertain any Benchmark, any component definition thereof or rates referred to in the definition thereof, in each case pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, and shall have no liability to the Borrowers, any Lender or any other person or entity for damages of any kind, including direct or indirect, special, punitive, incidental or consequential damages, costs, losses or expenses (whether in tort, contract or otherwise and whether at law or in equity), for any error or calculation of any such rate (or component thereof) provided by any such information source or service.

The Loans, including the Swing Line Loan, shall bear interest and be payable in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement and the Notes. The Notes shall be executed and delivered to each respective Lender on the date hereof and thereafter, from time to time, as and when requested by the Administrative Agent, acting at the direction of any Lender.

Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Swing Line Lender shall make swing line loans (each, a “Swing Line Loan” and collectively, the “Swing Line Loans”) to the Borrowers from time to time during the Swing Line Commitment Period, in the aggregate principal amount at any one time outstanding not to exceed the Swing Line Commitment Amount; provided, however, that at no time may the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Swing Line Loans, plus the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Facility (including the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding and the outstanding principal balance of any Alternative Currency Loans), exceed the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount. During the Swing Line Commitment Period, the Borrowers may use the Swing Line Commitment by borrowing, repaying Swing Line Loans in whole or in part, and reborrowing, all in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. At the request of the Swing Line Lender, the Administrative Agent may, at any time, on behalf of the Borrowers (which hereby irrevocably direct the Administrative Agent to act on their behalf) request each Lender having a Percentage of the Revolving Facility, including the Lender then acting as the Swing Line Lender, to make, and each such Lender, including the Lender then acting as the Swing Line Lender, shall make an advance under the Revolving Facility, in an amount equal to such Lender’s Percentage of the Revolving Facility, of the amount of the Swing Line Outstandings as of the date such request is made.

Subject to the terms and provisions of this Agreement, the Borrowers may at any time, and from time to time, request and obtain Alternative Currency Loans of up to the Dollar Equivalent of Two Million and No/100 Dollars ($2,000,000.00), in the aggregate, outstanding at any time, pursuant to this Agreement (it being understood and agreed that the amount of any outstanding Alternative Currency Loans will reduce availability under the Revolving Facility); provided, however, that with respect to any Loan or Alternative Currency Loan requested to be funded directly to any Foreign Borrower which has not previously been approved to receive a Loan or Alternative Currency Loan pursuant to this Section 1.3, the following conditions precedent shall have first been satisfied: (a) the Borrowers shall have provided to the Administrative Agent written notice of their desire to have a Loan or Alternative Currency Loan made to such Foreign Borrower (each, a “Foreign Borrower Loan Request”), (b) the Administrative Agent shall have promptly notified the Lenders of the Foreign Borrower Loan Request and requested the Lenders’ consent therefor, and (c) all of the Lenders shall have consented to such Foreign Borrower Loan Request within ten (10) Business Days of the Lenders’ receipt of such Foreign Borrower Loan Request from the Administrative Agent. Without limiting the

Except with respect to advances made pursuant to Section 1.4(c)(iii) below, requests for advances with respect to the Revolving Facility shall be in the form of Exhibit 1 attached hereto, and requests for advances with respect to the Swing Line Facility shall be in the form of Exhibit 1(a) attached hereto.

(ii)Interest.

A.So long as no Event of Default or any act, event or condition which with notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, has occurred and is continuing, the Borrowers shall have the right to elect that specified amounts advanced under the Revolving Facility, the Fifth Amendment Term Facility or the Term Facility (to the extent denominated in Dollars) bear interest at Term SOFR plus the applicable Additional Term SOFR Interest Margin in effect at the commencement of the particular Interest Period. The Borrowers must elect a Term SOFR based interest rate in accordance with the specific procedures set forth in this Agreement, and any amounts bearing interest on a Term SOFR basis shall be subject to the terms and

conditions of the Loan Documents applicable to amounts bearing interest on such basis, including the prepayment limitations and provisions regarding the payment of associated costs, as more fully set forth in Exhibit 3 attached hereto.

Upon the expiration of an applicable Interest Period, unless the Borrowers are then entitled to again elect a Term SOFR based rate and the Administrative Agent has received an Interest Election Form and Certification from the Borrowers, the rate of interest applicable to any amounts for which a Term SOFR based rate is expiring shall, from and after the end of the applicable Interest Period, bear interest at the Base Rate, plus the applicable Additional Base Rate Interest Margin; it being understood and agreed, however, that such amount may, at any time thereafter, bear interest at the Term SOFR based rate, plus the applicable Additional Term SOFR Interest Margin, provided that (i) the Borrowers are then entitled to elect a Term SOFR based rate, and (ii) the Administrative Agent has received an appropriate Interest Election Form and Certification from the Borrowers. Upon (i) the expiration of any Interest Period therefor, the Borrower may continue any Eurocurrency Rate Loans as Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (ii) the occurrence of the Interest Payment Date therefor, continue any Daily Simple RFR Loans as Daily Simple RFR Loans

B.Interest accrued on a Base Rate basis and Adjusted Daily Simple RFR basis shall be payable in quarterly installments, in arrears, commencing on March 31, 2018, and continuing on the last Business Day of each and every calendar quarter thereafter and on the Maturity Date.

C.Interest accrued on a Term SOFR basis and a Eurocurrency basis shall be due and payable on the last Business Day of the applicable Interest Period (whether such last day shall occur by reason of acceleration, declaration, extension or otherwise), and if such applicable Interest Period is longer than three (3) months, also on each Business Day which is three (3) months, or a multiple thereof, after the first day of such applicable Interest Period and the last day of such applicable Interest Period. Term SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR and Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate interest shall be calculated on a 365/366-day year basis and the actual number of days elapsed.

(iii)Automatic Advances/Payments. The Borrowers hereby authorize the Administrative Agent, on any Business Day, to transfer funds from the Collateral Account or any other designated account of the Borrowers to pay down the Obligations and to make Loans or Swing Line Loans available to the Borrowers to cover shortages or overdrafts in the Collateral Account or such other designated account of the Borrowers. All such transfers are subject to the availability of Loan proceeds under the Revolving Facility (with respect to advances) and the availability of funds in the Collateral Account or such other designated account(s) of the Borrowers (with respect to paydowns). The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, make such transfers (or direct any Lender maintaining a Deposit Account of a Borrower to wire transfer to the Administrative Agent any funds on deposit thereon to facilitate any such transfer by the Administrative Agent), but shall have no liability for its failure to do so. Subject to the terms of any cash management agreement between the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers may, at any time, terminate the authority granted by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent herein upon not less than two (2) Business Days prior written notice to the Administrative Agent.

(d)Application of Payments. All payments made or to be made upon any Obligations shall be payable in lawful currency of the United States (or, in the case of Alternative Currency Loans, in the applicable currency) and in immediately available funds. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, the Notes or any other Loan Document, if at any time insufficient funds are received by and available to the Administrative Agent to pay in full all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due pursuant to this Agreement or any of the other Loan Documents (as the case may be), such funds shall be applied as follows:

(i)first, to expenses and costs of collection, if any, incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the Loans, including all court costs and the reasonable fees and expenses of its agents and legal counsel, the repayment of all advances made by the Administrative Agent hereunder or under any other Loan Document on behalf of the Borrowers and any other reasonable costs or expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in connection with the exercise of any right or remedy hereunder;

(ii)second, to fees and late charges owing by any Borrower to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and then to fees and late charges owing by any Borrower to the Lenders (ratably in accordance with their Percentage) pursuant to this Agreement or any other Loan Document;

(iii)third, to accrued and unpaid interest hereunder (applied first to the Swing Line Facility and then pro rata to the Revolving Facility, the Fifth Amendment Term Facility, the Term Facility and scheduled payments that are part of the Hedging Obligations);

(iv)fourth, to the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations and termination payments under Hedging Contracts (applied first to Swing Line Outstandings (if any), then pro rata to the unpaid and outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Facility, the Fifth Amendment Term Facility and the Term Facility and all termination payments that are part of the Hedging Obligations, and then pro rata to Permitted Financial Product Obligations); and

(v)fifth, to any Person lawfully entitled thereto.

(e)Adjustments. If, as a result of any restatement of or other adjustment to the financial statements of the VSE Entities or for any other reason, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent shall determine that (i) the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio, as calculated by the Borrowers as of any applicable date, was inaccurate and (ii) a proper calculation of the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio would have resulted in a higher Additional Term SOFR Interest Margin, Additional Daily Simple RFR Interest Margin, Additional Eurocurrency Interest Margin, Additional Base Rate Interest Margin, Revolving Facility Commitment Fee or Letter of Credit Fee for the applicable period, the Borrowers shall immediately and retroactively be obligated to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender (or, after the occurrence of an actual or deemed entry of an order for relief with respect to the Borrowers under the Bankruptcy Code of the United States, automatically and without further action by the Administrative Agent), an amount equal to the excess of the amount of interest and fees that should have been paid for such period over the amount of interest and fees actually paid for such period. This paragraph shall not otherwise limit the rights of the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder. The Borrowers’ obligations under this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the repayment of all Obligations hereunder.

(f)Prepayment. Amounts outstanding which bear interest on a Base Rate basis may be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time, without penalty or premium; provided such prepayment amounts are in amounts not less than One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) and in increments of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), or, in each case, such lesser amount as may then be outstanding. Amounts outstanding which bear interest on a Term SOFR, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR or Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate basis may also be prepaid, in whole or in part, at any time, without penalty or premium, subject, however, to Exhibit 3 attached hereto. Partial prepayments under this clause (f) shall be applied to amounts due under the Loans as the Borrowers shall direct.

(g)Preference Period. If, after receipt of any payment hereunder or under any of the other Loan Documents, the Administrative Agent or the Lenders are compelled or reasonably agree, for settlement purposes, to surrender such payment to any Person for any reason (including, without limitation, a determination that such payment is void or voidable as a preference or fraudulent conveyance, an impermissible setoff, or a diversion of trust funds), then this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect or be reinstated, as the case may be, and the Borrowers shall be liable for, and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the full amount so surrendered. The provisions of this Section shall survive the cancellation or termination of this Agreement and shall remain effective notwithstanding the payment of the Obligations, the release of any security interest, lien or encumbrance securing the Obligations or any other action which the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have taken in reliance upon its receipt of such payment.

1.5Additional Mandatory Payments; Reduction of Commitment. In addition to all other sums payable by the Borrowers pursuant to any of the Notes, this Agreement or any other Loan Document, the Borrowers shall also make mandatory payments on the Notes (with such mandatory payments applied first to the Term Facility until the Term Facility shall have been paid and satisfied in full, and then to the Fifth Amendment Term Facility until the Fifth Amendment Term Facility shall have been paid and satisfied in full, and then to amounts outstanding under the Revolving Facility, as provided herein below; it being understood and agreed that such mandatory payments shall also be subject to Section 1.4(d) of this Agreement as set forth below, upon the occurrence of any Excess Cash Event. The amount of such mandatory payment shall be equal to the Net Cash arising from such Excess Cash Event(s). All such mandatory prepayments shall be applied to amounts due under the Loans as provided hereinabove in inverse order of maturities and such mandatory prepayments shall not relieve the Borrowers of their obligation to pay periodic installments of principal and/or interest hereunder as and when the same would otherwise be due hereunder. If any Mandatory Payment shall be applied to borrowings under the Revolving Facility in accordance with this Section 1.5(a) of this Agreement (i.e., the Term Facility and the Fifth Amendment Term Facility shall have been paid and satisfied in full), the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount shall, unless waived in writing by the Administrative Agent, be reduced by an amount equal to the amount of such Mandatory Payment, such reduction to become effective simultaneously with the occurrence of the Excess Cash Event. Notwithstanding

the foregoing, in the event any mandatory payment required to be paid pursuant to this Section 1.5(a) is not sufficient to pay in full all amounts of principal, interest, fees and other amounts then due pursuant to this Agreement, such payment shall also be subject to the application of payment provisions pursuant to Section 1.4(d) of this Agreement.

1.6Field Audits. The Administrative Agent has the right at any time and in its discretion upon reasonable prior notice and during normal business hours to conduct field audits with respect to the Collateral and each VSE Entity’s Receivables, inventory, business and operations. All field audits shall be at the cost and expense of the Administrative Agent; provided that, any and all field audits conducted following an Event of Default shall be at the Borrowers’ cost and expense.

1.7Certain Fees. In addition to principal, interest and other sums payable under the Notes, the Borrowers shall pay the following fees:

(a)Upfront Fee. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for the account of each Lender party to this Agreement as of the Restatement Date, an upfront fee in the amounts, and at the times, pursuant to the Fee Letter, and as may be further agreed upon in writing by the Primary Operating Company and the Administrative Agent from time to time. Additionally, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent (i) for the account of each Incremental Revolving Facility Lender, an upfront fee (an “Incremental Revolving Facility Upfront Fee”), for the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment made by such Incremental Revolving Facility Lender pursuant to this Agreement in an amount to be determined at the time such Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment is accepted by the Borrowers and (ii) for the account of each Incremental Term Facility Lender, an upfront fee (each, an “Incremental Term Facility Upfront Fee”) for the Incremental Term Facility Commitment made by such Incremental Term Facility Lender pursuant to this Agreement in an amount to be determined at the time such Incremental Term Facility Commitment is accepted by the Borrowers. Any Incremental Revolving Facility Upfront Fee and/or Incremental Term Facility Upfront Fee shall be due and payable in full on the effective date of the particular increase to the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount and/or Term Facility Commitment Amount, as applicable.

(b)Commitment Fee. So long as any amounts remain outstanding in connection with the Revolving Facility, or the Lenders have any obligation to make any advance in connection therewith, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders ratably, a quarterly commitment fee (the “Revolving Facility Commitment Fee”), at an annual rate corresponding to the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio for the immediately preceding Fiscal Quarter, as set forth on Exhibit 7 attached hereto, calculated on the difference between (i) the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount (including any increases thereto pursuant to Section 1.8 of this Agreement), and (ii) without duplication (i.e., with no consideration for the Swing Line Outstandings if such outstandings have already been included in the outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Facility), the sum of the average daily outstanding principal balance of the Revolving Facility and Swing Line Outstandings during the applicable three (3)-month period, plus the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding at any time during the applicable three (3)-month period. The Revolving Facility Commitment Fee shall be calculated on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a three hundred sixty (360)-day year, shall be due for any three (3)-month period during which the Lenders shall have any obligation in connection with the Facility, and shall be payable in arrears, commencing on March 31, 2018, and continuing on the last Business Day of every third (3rd) calendar month thereafter for so long as this Agreement remains in effect, and on the date on which the Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full.

(c)Other Fees. The Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent such other fees in the amounts, and at the times, pursuant to the Fee Letter, and as may be further agreed upon in writing by the Primary Operating Company and the Administrative Agent from time to time.

(d)Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall pay any and all Letter of Credit fees as and when such fees become due and payable pursuant to this Agreement.

(e)Out-of-Pocket Fees and Expenses. The Borrowers shall be liable for and shall timely pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent, and of other special and local counsel and other experts, if any, engaged by the Administrative Agent) from time to time incurred by the Administrative Agent or the Lead Arranger in connection with (i) the syndication of the Loan or (ii) the drafting of, administration of, preservation of rights in and enforcement of this Agreement, the other Loan Documents and the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Borrowers shall be liable for all of the Administrative Agent’s out-of-pocket costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses of counsel for the Administrative Agent) associated with any and all amendments, waivers or consents prepared, negotiated, executed, issued or delivered in connection with

this Agreement. Notwithstanding any judgment rendered by a court of competent jurisdiction related to the Loans, this section shall not be merged into such judgment, but shall survive the same and shall be binding and conclusive on the parties for all time. Post-judgment attorneys’ fees and costs incurred related to the enforcement of such judgment related to this Agreement or any other Loan Document shall be recoverable hereunder in the same or separate actions.

1.8Increases to the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount.

(a)The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time after the Restatement Date, request Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Uncommitted Incremental Increase Limit (less the amount of any Prior Increases and Incremental Term Facility Commitments being simultaneously requested) from one or more Incremental Revolving Facility Lenders, which, in the first instance, shall only include existing Lenders; provided that (i) no Lender shall have any obligation to become an Incremental Revolving Facility Lender (and the Lenders shall have no obligation to increase the Revolving Facility Commitments by the amount requested by the Borrowers), and (ii) if the full amount of the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments being requested are not subscribed for by existing Lenders within ten (10) Business Days of the delivery of such written notice, the Borrowers may offer such remaining Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments to other non-Lender financial institutions; provided further that each Incremental Revolving Facility Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent. Each such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and a minimum amount of Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00), or equal to the Uncommitted Incremental Increase Limit (less the amount of any Prior Increases and Incremental Term Facility Commitments being simultaneously requested)) and (ii) the date on which such Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than ten (10) Business Days nor more than forty-five (45) days after the date of such notice).

(b)The Borrowers and each Incremental Revolving Facility Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment of such Incremental Revolving Facility Lender. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment evidenced thereby.

(c)The Administrative Agent may take any and all actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, after giving effect to any Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment pursuant to this Section 1.8, the outstanding Loans under the Revolving Facility (if any) are held by the Lenders in accordance with their new pro rata Percentages. This may be accomplished at the discretion of the Administrative Agent (i) by requiring the outstanding Loans to be prepaid with the proceeds of a new Revolving Facility borrowing, (ii) by causing the existing Lenders to assign portions of their outstanding Loans to Incremental Revolving Facility Lenders, (iii) by permitting the Revolving Facility borrowings outstanding at the time of any increase in the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount pursuant to this Section 1.8 to remain outstanding until the last days of the respective Interest Periods therefor, even though the Lenders would hold such Revolving Facility borrowings other than in accordance with their new pro rata Percentages, or (iv) by any combination of the foregoing. Any prepayment or assignment described in this Subsection (c) shall be subject to indemnification by the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement, but otherwise be without premium or penalty.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment shall become effective, unless on the date of such effectiveness, (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and no act, event or condition shall have occurred or exist which with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, and (ii) the Administrative Agent shall have received (A) a certificate dated such date and executed by the Chief Financial Officer or other duly authorized officer of the Borrowers, on behalf of the Borrowers, certifying that all of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 5 and in each of the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all respects on and as of the date of the certificate with the same effect as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent that a representation and warranty relates to an earlier date); (B) to the extent requested by any applicable Lender, a duly executed Note (or an Allonge to an existing Note, as the case may be), in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which shall evidence the Loans to be made pursuant to the Incremental Revolving Facility Commitment; (C) UCC, judgment, bankruptcy, pending

litigation and tax lien search results for the Borrowers, confirming that no intervening lien, claim or encumbrance (other than Permitted Liens) on any Collateral exists that would affect the legality, validity or priority of the liens in favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders with respect to such Collateral; (D) the applicable Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement, duly executed by the parties thereto, together with such other documents, instruments and/or agreements reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, an opinion of counsel, resolutions and secretary’s/officer’s certificates with respect to each Borrower, each in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent; and (E) the applicable Incremental Revolving Facility Upfront Fee payable by the Borrowers to and for the account of each Incremental Revolving Facility Lender.

1.9Increases to the Term Facility Commitment Amount.

(a)The Borrowers may, by written notice to the Administrative Agent from time to time after the Restatement Date, request Incremental Term Facility Commitments in an amount not to exceed the Uncommitted Incremental Increase Limit (less the amount of any Prior Increases and Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments being simultaneously requested) from one or more Incremental Term Facility Lenders, which, in the first instance, shall only include existing Lenders; provided that (i) no Lender shall have any obligation to become an Incremental Term Facility Lender (and the Lenders shall have no obligation to increase the Term Facility Commitments by the amount requested by the Borrowers), and (ii) if the full amount of the Incremental Term Facility Commitments being requested are not subscribed for by existing Lenders within ten (10) Business Days of the delivery of such written notice, the Borrowers may offer such remaining Incremental Term Facility Commitments to other non-Lender financial institutions; provided further that each Incremental Term Facility Lender, if not already a Lender hereunder, shall be subject to the approval of the Administrative Agent. Each such notice shall set forth (i) the amount of the Incremental Term Facility Commitments being requested (which shall be in minimum increments of Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) and a minimum amount of Ten Million and No/100 Dollars ($10,000,000.00), or equal to the Uncommitted Incremental Increase Limit (less the amount of any Prior Increases and Incremental Revolving Facility Commitments being simultaneously requested)) and (ii) the date on which such Incremental Term Facility Commitments are requested to become effective (which shall not be less than ten (10) Business Days nor more than forty-five (45) days after the date of such notice). Any Loan made or to be made pursuant to an Incremental Term Facility Commitment shall (A) constitute a Loan made pursuant to this Agreement, (B) be deemed advanced under the Term Facility, (C) bear interest and be repaid in accordance with this Agreement applicable to advances made under the Term Facility, without preference or priority, (D) be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis, and (E) be subject to all other terms and provisions of this Agreement applicable to Loans and advances thereof.

(b)The Borrowers and each Incremental Term Facility Lender shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent an Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement and such other documentation as the Administrative Agent shall reasonably specify to evidence the Incremental Term Facility Commitment of such Incremental Term Facility Lender. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender as to the effectiveness of each Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement. Each of the parties hereto hereby agrees that, upon the effectiveness of any Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement, this Agreement shall be deemed amended to the extent (but only to the extent) necessary to reflect the existence and terms of the Incremental Term Facility Commitment evidenced thereby.

(c)The Term Loans funded by the Incremental Term Facility Lenders shall have a maturity date no earlier than the existing Maturity Date with respect to the Term Facility, and shall have a Weighted Average Life to Maturity no shorter than the original Weighted Average Life to Maturity of the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 1.4(a) of this Agreement, without giving effect to any prepayments. The terms (other than maturity, amortization and pricing) of any Term Loans funded by the Incremental Term Facility Lenders shall be identical to those of the Term Loans made pursuant to Section 1.4(a) of this Agreement, and if the All-In Yield applicable to any such Term Loans exceeds the All-In Yield of the Term Loans existing at such time by more than fifty (50) basis points, then the interest rate margins for the Term Loans existing at such time shall be increased to the extent necessary so that the All-In Yield of such Term Loans is equal to the All-In Yield of such Term Loans advanced by the Incremental Term Facility Lenders minus fifty (50) basis points.

(d)Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Incremental Term Facility Commitment shall become effective, unless on the date of such effectiveness, (i) no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, and no act, event or condition shall have occurred or exist which with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, (ii) the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio (on a pro forma basis after giving effect to the funding of such Incremental Term Facility Commitments) shall be (and the Borrowers must provide written evidence thereof), no greater than the lesser of (A) 3.75 to 1.00 and (B) 0.25 less than the then applicable level set forth in Section 6.15(a) of this Agreement, and (iii) the Administrative Agent shall have received (A) a certificate dated such date and executed by the Chief Financial Officer or other duly authorized officer of the Borrowers, on behalf of the Borrowers, certifying that all of the representations and warranties set forth in Article 5 and in each of

the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all respects on and as of the date of the certificate with the same effect as though made on and as of such date (except to the extent that a representation and warranty relates to an earlier date); (B) to the extent requested by any applicable Lender, a duly executed Note (or an Allonge to an existing Note, as the case may be), in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent, which shall evidence the Loans to be made pursuant to the Incremental Term Facility Commitment; (C) UCC, judgment, bankruptcy, pending litigation and tax lien search results for the Borrowers, confirming that no intervening lien, claim or encumbrance (other than Permitted Liens) on any Collateral exists that would affect the legality, validity or priority of the liens in favor of the Administrative Agent for the ratable benefit of the Lenders with respect to such Collateral; (D) the applicable Incremental Facility Assumption Agreement, duly executed by the parties thereto, together with such other documents, instruments and/or agreements reasonably requested by the Administrative Agent, including, without limitation, an opinion of counsel, resolutions and secretary’s/officer’s certificates with respect to each Borrower, each in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent; and (E) the applicable Incremental Term Facility Upfront Fee payable by the Borrowers to and for the account of each Incremental Term Facility Lender. Additionally, the Administrative Agent and the Incremental Term Facility Lenders shall have agreed with the Borrowers as to the amortization and funding mechanics of such additional Loans.

(e)Any Incremental Term Facility Commitment incurred solely to finance a substantially concurrent Limited Condition Acquisition shall be subject to Section 1.13.

1.10Appointment of the Primary Operating Company. Each Borrower acknowledges that (a) the Lenders have agreed to extend credit to each of the Borrowers on an integrated basis for the purposes herein set forth; (b) it is receiving direct or indirect benefits from each such extension of credit; and (c) the obligations of the Borrower or Borrowers under this Agreement are the joint and several obligations of each Borrower. To facilitate the administration of the Loan, each Borrower hereby irrevocably appoints the Primary Operating Company as its true and lawful agent and attorney-in-fact with full power and authority to execute, deliver and acknowledge on such Borrower’s behalf, each Request for Advance and Certification and all other Loan Documents or other materials provided or to be provided to the Administrative Agent or any Lender pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the Loan. This power-of-attorney is coupled with an interest and cannot be revoked, modified or amended without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, each Borrower shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrative Agent a Power of Attorney, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, confirming and restating the power-of-attorney granted herein.

1.11Joinder of New Subsidiaries and Affiliates.

(a)Except as otherwise provided in Section 1.11(b) of this Agreement or unless waived in writing by the Administrative Agent, acting at the direction of the Required Lenders, in their sole and absolute discretion, the Borrowers shall cause any present or future wholly-owned Affiliate of any VSE Entity (other than the Restricted Non-Borrower Affiliates) to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent (a) within forty-five (45) days of the date of formation or acquisition (as applicable) of any domestic entity, and (b) ninety (90) days of the date of formation or acquisition (as applicable) of any foreign entity, or a Foreign Subsidiary exceeding the thresholds set forth in clause (b) below (i) a Joinder Agreement in the form of Exhibit 6 attached hereto (a “Joinder Agreement”), pursuant to which such Affiliate shall (A) join in and become a party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; (B) agree to comply with and be bound by this Agreement and all of the other Loan Documents; and (C) become a “Borrower” and thereafter be jointly and severally liable for the performance of all the past, present and future obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers hereunder and under the Loan Documents; and (ii) such other documents, instruments and agreements as may be reasonably required by the Administrative Agent in connection therewith (including an opinion of counsel and any information required by any Lender (requested by and through the Administrative Agent) to comply with “Know Your Customer” and similar requirements to identify and verify new bank customers), in form and substance acceptable to the Administrative Agent in all respects. The Borrowers acknowledge and agree that the Administrative Agent shall have the right, at the Borrowers’ cost and expense, to perform a field audit of the Receivables, inventory, business and operations of any present or future Affiliate proposed to be joined as a “Borrower” hereunder.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in clause (a) above, no Foreign Subsidiary shall be required to become a “Borrower” party to this Agreement and/or any of the other Loan Documents, unless such Foreign Subsidiary would be considered a Material Foreign Subsidiary (in which event such entity will be required to be joined (within 90 days of the date of such determination) as a Foreign Borrower pursuant to the terms of clause (a) above). However, irrespective of whether or not any Person is required to be joined as a “Borrower” party to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, the Borrowers shall undertake, and cause the Non-Borrower Affiliates to undertake, any and all necessary and appropriate procedures to grant in favor of the Administrative Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Lenders, a first priority perfected security interest in and to sixty-five percent (65%) of the equity interests in each Foreign Subsidiary within sixty (60) days of such Person becoming

a Foreign Subsidiary. It is expressly understood and agreed that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have waived the requirement for VSE Aviation, Inc. to pledge sixty-five percent (65%) of the equity interests in VSE Aviation Singapore PTE. LTD., a Singapore private limited liability company, which waiver shall be effective so long as (i) no default or Event of Default is continuing hereunder; and/or (ii) VSE Aviation Singapore PTE. LTD., a Singapore private limited liability company is not a Material Foreign Subsidiary (in which event it shall also be joined as a Foreign Borrower hereunder).

1.12Division/Series Transactions. For all purposes under the Loan Documents, in connection with any division or plan of division under Delaware law (or any comparable event under a different jurisdiction’s laws): (a) if any asset, right, obligation or liability of any Person becomes the asset, right, obligation or liability of a different Person, then it shall be deemed to have been transferred from the original Person to the subsequent Person, and (b) if any new Person comes into existence, such new Person shall be deemed to have been organized on the first date of its existence by the holders of its equity interests at such time.

1.13Limited Condition Acquisitions. In the event that the Borrowers notify the Administrative Agent in writing that any proposed acquisition is a Limited Condition Acquisition and that the Borrowers wish to test the conditions to such acquisition and the Indebtedness that is to be used to finance such acquisition in accordance with this Section 1.13, then, so long as agreed to by the Administrative Agent and the lenders providing such Indebtedness, the following provisions shall apply:

(a)any condition to such Limited Condition Acquisition or such Indebtedness that requires that no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of such Limited Condition Acquisition or the incurrence of such Indebtedness, shall be satisfied if (i) no Default or Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing at the time of the execution of the definitive purchase agreement, merger agreement or other acquisition agreement governing such Limited Condition Acquisition (the “LCA Test Date”) and (ii) no Event of Default under any of Section 9.1(a), 9.1(g) or 9.1(l) shall have occurred and be continuing both immediately before and immediately after giving effect to such Limited Condition Acquisition and any Indebtedness incurred in connection therewith (including any such additional Indebtedness);

(b)any condition to such Limited Condition Acquisition or such Indebtedness that the representations and warranties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be true and correct at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition or the incurrence of such Indebtedness shall be deemed satisfied if (i) all representations and warranties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents are true and correct in all material respects (except for any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, which such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects) as of the LCA Test Date, or if such representation speaks as of an earlier date, as of such earlier date and (ii) as of the date of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, (A) the representations and warranties under the relevant definitive agreement governing such Limited Condition Acquisition as are material to the lenders providing such Indebtedness shall be true and correct, but only to the extent that the applicable Borrower or its applicable Subsidiary has the right to terminate its obligations under such agreement or otherwise decline to close such Limited Condition Acquisition as a result of a breach of such representations and warranties or the failure of those representations and warranties to be true and correct and (B) certain of the representations and warranties in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents which are customary for similar “funds certain” financings and required by the lenders providing such Indebtedness shall be true and correct in all material respects (except for any representation and warranty that is qualified by materiality or reference to Material Adverse Effect, which such representation and warranty shall be true and correct in all respects);

(c)any financial ratio test or condition to be tested in connection with such Limited Condition Acquisition and the availability of such Indebtedness will be tested as of the LCA Test Date, in each case, after giving effect to the relevant Limited Condition Acquisition and related incurrence of Indebtedness, on a pro forma basis where applicable, and, for the avoidance of doubt, (i) such ratios and baskets shall not be tested at the time of consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition and (ii) if any of such ratios are exceeded or conditions are not met following the LCA Test Date, but prior to the closing of such Limited Condition Acquisition, as a result of fluctuations in such ratio or amount (including due to fluctuations in Consolidated EBITDA of the Borrowers or the Person subject to such Limited Condition Acquisition), at or prior to the consummation of the relevant transaction or action, such ratios will not be deemed to have been exceeded and such conditions will not be deemed unmet as a result of such fluctuations solely for purposes of determining whether the relevant transaction or action is permitted to be consummated or taken;

(d)except as provided in the next sentence, in connection with any subsequent calculation of any ratio or basket on or following the relevant LCA Test Date and prior to the earlier of the date on which such Limited Condition Acquisition is consummated and the date that the definitive agreement for such Limited Condition Acquisition is terminated or expires without consummation of such Limited Condition Acquisition, any such ratio or basket shall be calculated (i) on a pro forma basis assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including the incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness) have been consummated and (ii) assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including the incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness) have not been consummated. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any calculation of a ratio in connection with determining the Applicable Interest Rate and determining whether or not the Borrower is in compliance with the financial covenants set forth in Section 6.15 shall, in each case be calculated assuming such Limited Condition Acquisition and other transactions in connection therewith (including the incurrence or assumption of Indebtedness) have not been consummated.

(e)The foregoing provisions shall apply with similar effect during the pendency of multiple Limited Condition Acquisitions such that each of the possible scenarios is separately tested

ARTICLE 2
LETTERS OF CREDIT

2.1Issuance. The Borrowers and the Lenders acknowledge that from time to time the Borrowers may request that the LC Issuer issue or amend Letter(s) of Credit. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, and any other requirements for letters of credit normally and customarily imposed by the LC Issuer, the LC Issuer agrees to issue such requested letters of credit, provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, and no act, event or condition has occurred or exists which with notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default. If any such Letter(s) of Credit are issued by the LC Issuer, each of the Revolving Facility Lenders shall purchase from the LC Issuer a risk participation with respect to such Letter(s) of Credit in an amount equal to such Revolving Facility Lender’s Percentage of the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount. The LC Issuer shall not have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit that has an expiration date beyond the date which is three (3) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, unless the Borrowers shall have deposited with such LC Issuer, concurrent with the issuance or renewal of any such Letter of Credit, cash security therefor in an amount equal to the face amount of the Letter of Credit. Any request for a Letter of Credit shall be made by a Borrower submitting to the LC Issuer (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) an Application and Agreement for Letter of Credit or Amendment to Letter of Credit (each being herein referred to as a “Letter of Credit Application”) on the LC Issuer’s standard form, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the date on which the issuance or amendment of the Letter of Credit shall be required, which Letter of Credit Application shall be executed by a duly authorized officer of a Borrower, and be accompanied by such other supporting documentation and information as the Administrative Agent or the LC Issuer may from time to time reasonably request. Each Letter of Credit Application shall be deemed to govern the terms of issuance of the subject Letter of Credit, except to the extent inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement. Letters of Credit shall not be issued for durations of longer than one (1) year. Any outstanding Letter of Credit may be renewed from time to time; provided that (a) at least sixty (60) days’ prior written notice thereof shall have been given by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent and the LC Issuer; (b) no Event of Default exists under the terms and conditions of the particular Letter of Credit or this Agreement, and no act, event or condition has occurred or exists which with notice or the passage of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default under the terms and conditions of the particular Letter of Credit or this Agreement; and (c) if the renewal period would expire later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Maturity Date, the Borrowers shall have deposited with the LC Issuer, concurrent with the renewal of such Letter of Credit, cash security therefor in an amount equal to the face amount of such Letter of Credit. It is expressly understood and agreed that the face amount of any outstanding Letters of Credit will reduce availability under the Revolving Facility.

2.2Amounts Advanced Pursuant to Letters of Credit. Upon the issuance of any Letter(s) of Credit (a) any amounts drawn pursuant thereto shall be deemed advanced ratably under the Revolver Notes, shall bear interest and be payable in accordance with the terms of the Revolver Notes and shall be secured by the Collateral (in the same manner as all other sums advanced under the Revolver Notes); and (b) each Revolving Facility Lender shall purchase from the LC Issuer such risk participations in the Letter(s) of Credit as shall be necessary to cause each Revolving Facility Lender to share the funding obligations with respect thereto ratably in accordance with such Lender’s Percentage. All obligations and liabilities of the Borrowers to the LC Issuer in connection with any such Letter(s) of Credit shall be deemed to be “Obligations,” and the Administrative Agent shall not be required to release its security interest in the Collateral until (a) all sums due under the Notes and the other Obligations have been paid and satisfied in full, (b) all Letters of Credit have been canceled or expired, and (c) no Lender or the LC Issuer has any further obligation or responsibility to make additional Loan advances or issue additional Letters of Credit. Furthermore, in no event whatsoever shall the LC Issuer have any obligation to issue any Letter of Credit which would cause (a) the face amount of all then outstanding Letters of Credit issued for the account of any or all

Borrowers to exceed Twenty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00), in the aggregate, or (b) the aggregate outstanding principal amount of the Revolving Facility (including the aggregate face amount of all Letters of Credit outstanding, Swing Line Loans outstanding and Alternative Currency Loans outstanding), to exceed the Revolving Facility Commitment Amount.

2.3Letter of Credit Fees. The Borrowers shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment to: (a) the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders ratably, of a quarterly fee (the “Letter of Credit Fee”) at the annual rate equal to the Additional Term SOFR Interest Margin corresponding to the Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio reported as of the immediately preceding quarter, as set forth on Exhibit 7 attached hereto, which shall be calculated (i) on the face amount of each Letter of Credit as of the date of issuance (or the anniversary or amendment date, as applicable), and (ii) on the basis of the actual number of days elapsed and a three hundred sixty (360)-day year; and (b) the LC Issuer, of an issuance fee in an amount equal to the LC Issuer’s standard pricing for such fees, as amended from time to time, and the customary administrative charges (collectively, the “Letter of Credit Administration Fee”). The Letter of Credit Fee shall be due and payable, in advance, on the date the Letter of Credit is issued, amended, extended or renewed and on the same day of every third (3rd) month thereafter during which such Letter of Credit shall remain issued or outstanding. The Letter of Credit Administration Fee shall be due and payable simultaneously with the LC Issuer’s issuance, amendment, extension or renewal of the particular Letter of Credit (as the case may be).

2.4Documentation. Each Borrower agrees to be bound by the terms of the applicable Letter of Credit Application and the LC Issuer’s written regulations and customary practices relating to letters of credit, though such interpretation may be different from such Borrower's own. In the event of a conflict between such Letter of Credit Application and this Agreement, this Agreement shall govern subject to the terms of the International Standby Practices 1998, and any subsequent official revision thereof and the terms of the Uniform Customs and Practice for Documentary Credits (2007 Revision), International Chamber of Commerce Publication No. 600, and any subsequent official revision thereof. Except in the case of gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, the LC Issuer shall not be liable for any error, negligence or mistakes, whether of omission or commission, in following any Borrower's instructions or those contained in the Letters of Credit or any modifications, amendments or supplements thereto. In determining whether to honor any request for drawing under any Letter of Credit by the beneficiary thereof, the LC Issuer shall be responsible only to determine that the documents and certificates required to be delivered under such Letter of Credit have been delivered and that they comply on their face with the requirements of such Letter of Credit.

2.5Liability for Acts and Omissions. As between any VSE Entity and the LC Issuer, the Borrowers assume all risks of the acts and omissions of, or misuse of the Letters of Credit by, the respective beneficiaries of such Letters of Credit. In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the LC Issuer shall not be responsible for any of the following, including any losses or damages to any VSE Entity or other Person or property relating therefrom: (a) the form, validity, sufficiency, accuracy, genuineness or legal effect of any document submitted by any Person in connection with the particular Letter of Credit Application for such Letter of Credit, even if it should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient, inaccurate, fraudulent or forged (even if the LC Issuer shall have been notified thereof); (b) the validity or sufficiency of any instrument transferring or assigning or purporting to transfer or assign any such Letter of Credit or the rights or benefits thereunder or proceeds thereof, in whole or in part, which may prove to be invalid or ineffective for any reason; (c) the failure of the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit, or any other Person to which such Letter of Credit may be transferred, to comply fully with any conditions required in order to draw upon such Letter of Credit or any other claim of any VSE Entity against any beneficiary of such Letter of Credit, or any such transferee, or any dispute between or among any VSE Entity and any beneficiary of any Letter of Credit or any such transferee; (d) errors, omissions, interruptions or delays in transmission or delivery of any messages, by mail, cable, telegraph, telex or otherwise, whether or not they be in cipher; (e) errors in interpretation of technical terms; (f) any loss or delay in the transmission or otherwise of any document required in order to make a drawing under any such Letter of Credit or of the proceeds thereof; (g) the misapplication of the proceeds of any drawing under such Letter of Credit by the beneficiary of any such Letter of Credit; or (h) any consequences arising from causes beyond the control of the LC Issuer, including any act or omission of any Government, and none of the above shall affect or impair, or prevent the vesting of, any of the LC Issuer’s rights or powers hereunder. Nothing in the preceding sentence shall relieve the LC Issuer from liability for the LC Issuer’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, in connection with actions or omissions described in such clauses (a) through (h) of such sentence. In no event shall the LC Issuer be liable to any VSE Entity for any indirect, consequential, incidental, punitive, exemplary or special damages or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), or for any damages resulting from any change in the value of any property relating to a Letter of Credit. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the LC Issuer (i) may rely on any oral or other communication believed in good faith by the LC Issuer to have been authorized or given by or on behalf of the applicant for a Letter of Credit, (ii) may honor any presentation if the documents presented appear on their face to comply with the terms and conditions of the relevant Letter of Credit; (iii) may honor a previously dishonored presentation under a Letter of Credit, whether such dishonor was pursuant to a court order, to settle or

compromise any claim of wrongful dishonor, or otherwise, and shall be entitled to reimbursement to the same extent as if such presentation had initially been honored, together with any interest paid by the LC Issuer; (iv) may honor any drawing that is payable upon presentation of a statement advising negotiation or payment, upon receipt of such statement (even if such statement indicates that a draft or other document is being delivered separately), and shall not be liable for any failure of any such draft or other document to arrive, or to conform in any way with the relevant Letter of Credit; (v) may pay any paying or negotiating bank claiming that it rightfully honored under the laws or practices of the place where such bank is located; and (vi) may settle or adjust any claim or demand made on the LC Issuer in any way related to any order issued at the applicant's request to an air carrier, a letter of guarantee or of indemnity issued to a carrier or any similar document and honor any drawing in connection with any Letter of Credit that is the subject to such order, notwithstanding that any drafts or other documents presented in connection with such Letter of Credit fail to conform in any way with such Letter of Credit.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

To induce the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to enter into this Agreement or make any advances to the Borrowers pursuant to this Agreement, each Borrower jointly and severally represents, warrants, covenants and agrees as follows:

5.1Existence and Qualification. Each Borrower is a corporation or limited liability company duly organized, validly existing and in good standing (to the extent applicable) under the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation or organization referenced in Schedule A-1 attached hereto, with all corporate or limited liability company power and authority and all necessary licenses and permits to execute, deliver and perform under the Loan

Documents, and to own, operate and lease its properties and carry on its business as now being conducted, and as may in the future be conducted. Each Borrower has only one jurisdiction of incorporation or organization (as the case may be). Except as set forth in Schedule 5.1 attached hereto, each Borrower is duly qualified and authorized to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the nature of its activities or the character of its properties makes qualification necessary.

5.2Authority; Noncontravention. Except as set forth in Schedule 5.2 attached hereto, the execution, delivery and performance of the obligations of each Borrower set forth in this Agreement, the Notes, the other Loan Documents, and the execution, delivery and performance of the obligations of each Non-Borrower Affiliate set forth in each collateral document to which it is a party (a) have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate, limited liability company, stockholder or member action (as applicable); (b) do not require the consent of any Government; (c) will not violate or result in (and with notice or the lapse of time will not violate or result in) the breach of any provision of any Borrower’s or Non-Borrower Affiliate’s Articles/Certificate of Incorporation, Articles/Certificate of Organization, By-laws, Operating Agreement, Material Contracts existing as of the Restatement Date, or any order or regulation of any Government or arbitration board or tribunal; and (d) except as permitted by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, will not result in the creation of a lien, charge or encumbrance of any nature upon any of the properties or assets of any Borrower or Non-Borrower Affiliate. When the Loan Documents are executed and delivered, they will constitute legal, valid and binding obligations of each Borrower and, to the extent applicable, each Non-Borrower Affiliate, enforceable against each Borrower, and, to the extent applicable, each Non-Borrower Affiliate, in accordance with their respective terms, subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws of general application affecting the rights and remedies of creditors and secured parties, and general principles of equity regardless of whether applied in a proceeding in equity or at law.

5.3Financial Position.

Except as set forth on Schedule 5.3 attached hereto, all material liabilities, fixed or contingent (including, without limitation, those fixed or contingent liabilities of Two Million Five Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($2,500,000.00) or more), are fully shown or provided for on the referenced financial statements or the notes thereto as of the date(s) thereof. There has been no material adverse change in the business, property or condition (financial or otherwise) of the VSE Entities, taken as a whole, since the date of the most recent balance sheet listed on Schedule 5.3 attached hereto.

5.4Payment of Taxes. Each VSE Entity has filed all federal and other material tax returns and reports required to be filed by it with the United States Government or with any state or local governments, and has paid in full or made adequate provision on its books as required under GAAP for the payment of all taxes, interest, penalties, assessments or deficiencies shown to be due or claimed to be due on or in respect of such tax returns and reports, except to the extent that the validity or amount thereof is being contested in good faith by appropriate proceedings and the non-payment thereof pending such contest will not result in any lien other than Permitted Liens or otherwise jeopardize the Administrative Agent’s or the Lenders’ interests in any Collateral, and adequate reserves therefor have been established as required under GAAP.

5.5Accuracy of Submitted Information; Omissions. As of the date furnished, all documents, certificates, information, materials and financial statements furnished or to be furnished to any Lender or the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement or otherwise in connection with the Loan (a) are true and correct in all material respects; (b) do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact; and (c) do not omit any material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein or herein not misleading.

5.6Government Contracts/Government Subcontracts. Except for the matters set forth on Schedule 5.6(a) attached hereto, since June 30, 2010, no notice of suspension, debarment, unremedied cure notice, show cause notice or notice of termination for default has been issued by the Government to any Borrower, and no Borrower is a party to any pending, or to any Borrower’s knowledge threatened, suspension, debarment, termination for default or show cause requirement by the Government or other material adverse Government action or proceeding in connection with any Government Contract; except that for purposes hereof, normal and customary

reviews and audits conducted by the Government in the ordinary course of business shall not be deemed adverse Government action(s) or proceeding(s). All Government Contracts existing as of the Restatement Date and having (a) a remaining contract value of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) or more, and (b) a remaining term of twelve (12) months or longer are listed on Schedule 5.6(b) attached hereto.

5.8No Violations of Law.

Section 15 (the “Government Contract Assignments”) in connection with each such Government Contract; however, (a) no Borrower’s failure to execute and deliver any Government Contract Assignment shall constitute a default, breach or violation of the Borrowers’ obligation(s) set forth in this Section 6.11, unless the Administrative Agent shall have made written demand upon the Borrowers to fully and faithfully comply with its obligation(s) with respect to Government Contract Assignments set forth in this Section 6.11 above; and (b) no Government Contract Assignment shall be required for any Government Contract that (i) does not constitute a Material Contract (unless such demand shall be made after the occurrence and during the continuation of an Event of Default, in which case Government Contract Assignments can be required by the Administrative Agent for any Government Contract), or (ii) has a remaining term of less than twelve (12) months (with no option to extend). The Borrowers acknowledge that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders will be irreparably harmed if any Borrower fails or refuses to execute and deliver any Government Contract Assignment after the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor, as and when required pursuant to this Section 6.11, and that the Administrative Agent and the Lenders have no adequate remedy at law. In such event, the Borrowers agree that the Administrative Agent shall be entitled, in addition to all other rights and remedies available to the Administrative Agent or the Lenders, to injunctive or other equitable relief to compel the Borrowers’ full compliance with the requirements of this Section 6.11. All costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) incurred in connection with the preparation, execution, delivery and administration of Government Contract Assignments shall be borne solely by the Borrowers. Additionally, the Borrowers will pay any and all costs incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, as well as any and all taxes (other than the Lenders’ income and franchise taxes), that may be payable as a result of the execution of this Agreement or any agreement supplemental hereto, or as a result of the execution and/or delivery of any Note or other Loan Document.

6.12Defense of Title to Collateral. The Borrowers will at all times defend the Lenders’, the Administrative Agent’s and Borrowers’ rights in the Collateral, subject to the Permitted Liens, against all Persons and all claims and demands whatsoever, and will, upon request of the Administrative Agent (a) furnish such further assurances of title as may be required by the Administrative Agent, and (b) do any other acts necessary to effectuate the purposes and provisions of this Agreement, or as required by Applicable Laws or otherwise to perfect, preserve, maintain or continue the interests of the Administrative Agent or Lenders in any Collateral.

6.13Compliance with Law. Each Borrower will, and will cause each other VSE Entity to, conduct its businesses and operations in compliance with (a) all Applicable Laws (including ERISA and environmental regulations) and requirements of all federal, state and local regulatory authorities having jurisdiction, (b) the provisions of its charter documents and other corporate governance documents, (c) all agreements and instruments by which it or any of its properties may be bound, and (d) all applicable decrees, orders and judgments; whenever the noncompliance with or the non-observance of which would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect. No VSE Entity will, directly or indirectly, use the proceeds of the Loans, or lend, contribute or otherwise make available such proceeds to any Subsidiary, joint venture partner or other Person, (i) to fund any activities or

business of or with any Person, or in any country or territory, that, at the time of such funding, is, or whose government is, the subject of Sanctions or (ii) in any other manner that would result in a violation of Sanctions by any Person (including any Person participating in the Loans, whether as underwriter, advisor, investor or otherwise).

6.14Other Collateral Covenants.

(a)The Borrowers will, at their own expense, make, execute, endorse, acknowledge, file and/or deliver to the Administrative Agent from time to time such lists, descriptions and designations of Collateral, warehouse receipts, receipts in the nature of warehouse receipts, bills of lading, documents of title, vouchers, invoices, schedules, confirmatory assignments, conveyances, financing statements, transfer endorsements, powers of attorney, certificates, reports and other assurances or instruments, and take such further steps relating to the Collateral and other property or rights covered by the interests hereby granted which the Administrative Agent deems reasonably appropriate or advisable to perfect, preserve or protect its and any Lender’s ownership or security interests in any Collateral.

(b)The Borrowers shall promptly notify the Administrative Agent in writing if, at any time, any issuer of uncertificated securities, securities intermediary or commodities intermediary has issued or holds, or will issue or hold, any financial assets or commodities to or for the benefit of any Borrower, and the Borrowers shall obtain authenticated control letters from such issuer or intermediary, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, within ten (10) days of the Administrative Agent’s demand therefor.

(c)If any Borrower is or becomes the beneficiary of a letter of credit in excess of One Million Dollars and No/100 ($1,000,000.00), such Borrower shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after becoming a beneficiary, notify the Administrative Agent thereof and, following the Administrative Agent’s request, enter into a tri-party agreement with the Administrative Agent and the issuer and/or confirmation bank with respect to all Letter of Credit Rights in connection with such letter of credit, assigning such Letter of Credit Rights to the Administrative Agent and directing all payments thereunder to an account designated by the Administrative Agent, which tri-party agreement shall be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent.

(d)The Borrowers shall promptly take all action necessary to grant the Administrative Agent control of all electronic chattel paper with a value in excess of One Million Dollars and No/100 ($1,000,000.00) in accordance with the UCC and all "transferable records" as defined in each of the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act and the Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act.

(e)The Borrowers hereby irrevocably authorize the Administrative Agent at any time and from time to time to file in any filing office in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements and amendments thereto that (i) describe Collateral (A) as all assets of the Borrowers or words of similar effect (other than assets expressly excluded from the description of Collateral herein), regardless of whether any particular asset comprised in the Collateral falls within the scope of Article 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code in such jurisdiction, or (B) as being of an equal or lesser scope or with greater detail, and (ii) contain any other information required by part 5 of Article 9 of the UCC for the sufficiency or filing office acceptance of any financing statement or amendment, including (A) whether any Borrower is an organization, the type of organization and any organization identification number issued to such Borrower, and (B) in the case of a financing statement filed as a fixture filing or indicating Collateral as as-extracted collateral or timber to be cut, a sufficient description of real property to which the Collateral relates. The Borrowers shall furnish any such information to the Administrative Agent promptly upon request. The Borrowers also ratify their authorization for the Administrative Agent to have filed in any Uniform Commercial Code jurisdiction any initial financing statements or amendments thereto or continuations thereof, if filed prior to the Restatement Date.

(f)The Borrowers shall promptly, and in any event within three (3) Business Days after the same is acquired by any Borrower, notify the Administrative Agent of any Commercial Tort Claim acquired by a Borrower in excess of One Million Dollars and No/100 ($1,000,000.00) and unless otherwise consented to by the Administrative Agent, such Borrower shall enter into a supplement to this Agreement, granting to the Administrative Agent, for the benefit of the Lenders ratably, a perfected security interest in such Commercial Tort Claim.

(g)If any Borrower retains possession of any Chattel Paper or Instruments with the Administrative Agent’s consent, such Chattel Paper and Instruments shall be marked with the following legend: "This writing and the obligations evidenced or secured hereby are subject to the security interest of Citizens Bank of Pennsylvania, as Administrative Agent.”

(h)No Borrower shall reincorporate or reorganize itself under the laws of any jurisdiction other than the jurisdiction in which it is incorporated as of the Restatement Date without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent.

(i)Each Borrower acknowledges that it is not authorized to file any financing statement or amendment or termination statement with respect to any financing statement without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent and agrees that it will not do so without the prior written consent of the Administrative Agent, subject to such Borrower’s rights under UCC Section 9-509(d)(2).

(j)Each Borrower acknowledges that the Administrative Agent reserves the right to require the Borrowers to execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and within thirty (30) days (as such period may be extended in the Administrative Agent’s sole discretion, the “Initial Compliance Period”) of the Administrative Agent’s request, such documents, instruments and agreements (including, without limitation, a mortgage, deed of trust, environmental assessment, title insurance, flood zone certificates, flood insurance (if applicable), surveys and/or other similar and customary real estate documentation) which the Administrative Agent may reasonably request to confirm and/or perfect its security interest in and to all or any portion of any real property interest (other than a leasehold interest) acquired by any Borrower after the Restatement Date with an individual, or with respect to contiguous parcels, an aggregate appraised value in excess of Four Million and No/100 Dollars ($4,000,000.00). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that the Administrative Agent requires that flood insurance be obtained with respect to any real property that is pledged by any VSE Entity to the Lenders, the Administrative Agent will not accept any mortgage or deed of trust with respect to such property if, prior to the expiration of twenty (20) calendar days after notice to the Lenders of the Administrative Agent’s intent to accept such mortgage or deed of trust, a Lender provides written notice to the Administrative Agent stating that such Lender’s due diligence has shown that the flood insurance provided does not meet such Lender’s standard requirements to such Lender’s reasonable satisfaction and provides a detailed description of the reasons why the provided flood insurance does not meet such requirements. The Administrative Agent will promptly provide a copy of such notice to the relevant VSE entity, and such entity will then have thirty (30) calendar days (the “Supplementary Compliance Period”) to provide to the Administrative Agent (to be shared with each Lender) flood insurance that meets such requirements. The Administrative Agent shall not enter into the corresponding mortgage or deed of trust unless and until the Administrative Agent receives written confirmation from the relevant Lender that all necessary flood due diligence has been completed to its reasonable satisfaction; provided that in no event shall any VSE Entity be deemed to be in default of its obligation to provide a mortgage or related documentation due to any delay caused by a Lender’s additional requirements with respect to flood insurance, as long as such VSE entity has met its obligations under the Initial Compliance Period and the Supplementary Compliance Period.

6.15Financial Covenants of the Borrowers. The Borrowers will comply, and will cause the other VSE Entities to comply, with each of the financial covenants set forth below:

(a)Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio. The VSE Entities will maintain as of the last day of each Fiscal Quarter occurring during the periods set forth below, on a consolidated basis, a Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio of not more than the applicable ratio set forth in the table below:


Testing Period Ending			Maximum Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio
June 30, 2023 through and including September 30, 2023			5.00 to 1.00
December 31, 2023 through and including June 30, 2024			4.75 to 1.00
September 30, 2024			4.50 to 1.00
December 31, 2024 through and including March 31, 2025			4.25 to 1.00
June 30, 2025 through and including June 30, 2025			4.00 to 1.00
September 30, 2025 and thereafter			3.75 to 1.00

For purposes of the foregoing, the “Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio” shall mean, as of any date of determination, (A) the Total Funded Debt as of as of the last day of the most recently ended four (4) fiscal quarter period divided by (B) the VSE Entities’ EBITDA for the four (4) fiscal quarter period most recently ended. The Total Funded Debt to EBITDA Ratio shall be measured on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter throughout the term of the Loan.

(b)Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio. The VSE Entities will maintain as of the last day of each Fiscal Quarter, on a consolidated basis, a Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio of not less than 1.20 to 1.00. For purposes of the foregoing, “Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio” shall mean, as of any date of determination, the sum of (A) (i) the VSE Entities’ EBITDA for the four (4) fiscal quarter period most recently ended, plus (ii) operating lease payments (including rent) made during such period, minus (iii) cash taxes paid during such period, minus (iv) cash dividends paid during such period, minus (v) share repurchases made during such period, minus (vi) maintenance capital expenditures made during such period, divided by (B) Fixed Charges for such period. For purposes hereof, “Fixed Charges” shall mean, for any period of determination thereof on a consolidated basis, the sum of (i) scheduled or required principal payments on all Indebtedness for borrowed money during such period (excluding the payment of the existing term loans occurring on the Fourth Amendment effective Date), plus (ii) all operating lease payments (including rent) during such period, plus (iii) cash interest expense for such period, plus (iv) any cash payments of Permitted Earn-outs payable during such period. The Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio shall be measured on the last day of each Fiscal Quarter throughout the term of the Loan.

Except as otherwise expressly provided above, the financial covenants referenced above shall be calculated and tested quarterly on a rolling four (4) Fiscal Quarter basis, and shall include the results of any other Person acquired pursuant to a Permitted Acquisition and consolidated into the VSE Entities’ financial statements within the twelve (12) month period immediately preceding the applicable covenant calculation date (with such calculation being on a pro forma basis assuming debt service for the test period equal to the next year’s debt service, and including EBITDA on a pro forma basis). Unless otherwise defined, all financial terms used in this Section 6.15 shall have the meanings attributed to such terms in accordance with GAAP.

6.16Interest Rate Contracts. The Borrowers shall have in effect, at all times for a minimum period of three (3) years, commencing not later than the sixtieth (60th) day after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date, one or more interest rate swap agreements or hedging agreements reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent covering not less than fifty percent (50%) of that portion of the Fourth Amendment Term Loan that was used to refinance the First Amendment Term Loan (applying ratably any amortization payment of the Fourth Amendment Term Loan after the Fourth Amendment Effective Date). In order for any such interest rate swap agreement or hedging agreement to be secured by any assets of the Borrowers, it must be purchased from and maintained with a Lender or an Affiliate of a Lender, in which case the Borrowers’ obligations under any Hedging Contract shall be secured by the Collateral on a pari passu basis, and any reference in this Agreement or any other Loan Document to a ratable allocation between the Lenders and Affiliates of the Lenders shall be based on the Commitment Amount (and the respective Lender’s Percentage) and the amount due under all Hedging Contracts (including all scheduled payments and hedged termination amounts) (and the respective Lender’s Affiliates interest therein), subject, however, to Section 1.4(d) of this Agreement. The Administrative Agent shall be deemed the collateral agent of each Lender and Affiliate of a Lender that is a counterparty under a Hedging Contract. The Borrowers shall determine to their own satisfaction whether each such interest rate swap agreement, hedging agreement or Hedging Contract is sufficient to meet the Borrowers’ needs for interest rate protection, and neither the Administrative Agent nor any Lender shall have any obligation or liability with respect thereto.

6.17Landlord Waivers; Subordination. If, at any time after the Restatement Date, any Borrower (other than any Foreign Borrower) shall move or relocate any of its (a) books and records, or (b) primary business location(s) situated within the United States or locations where Borrower assets valued, individually or in the aggregate, in excess of One Million and No/100 Dollars ($1,000,000.00) are located, the Borrowers shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide to the Administrative Agent, prior to any such move or relocation, a landlord lien waiver if, in the Administrative Agent’s discretion, such landlord’s lien waiver is necessary or desirable. Each such landlord’s waiver, shall be, in form and substance, reasonably satisfactory to the Administrative Agent, pursuant to which each landlord shall subordinate any statutory, contractual or other lien the landlord may have in any of the Collateral to the lien, operation and effect of the lien granted to the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

6.18Substitute Notes. Upon request of the Administrative Agent, each Borrower shall execute and deliver to the Administrative Agent substitute promissory notes, in form and substance satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in all respects, payable to the order of such Person as may be designated by the Administrative Agent; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all outstanding promissory notes shall not exceed the Commitment Amount (plus the Swing Line Commitment Amount) as of the date such substitute note(s) are issued.

6.19Inventory. With respect to the Inventory, the VSE Entities will, during any continuing Event of Default: (a) maintain a perpetual inventory reporting system at all times, (b) keep correct and accurate records itemizing and describing the kind, type, quality and quantity of Inventory, the VSE Entities’ cost therefor and the selling price thereof, all of which records shall be available to the officers, employees or agents of the Administrative Agent upon demand for inspection and copying thereof; (c) not store any Inventory with a bailee, warehouseman or similar Person without the Administrative Agent’s prior written consent, which consent may be

conditioned on, among other things, delivery by the bailee, warehouseman or similar Person to the Administrative Agent of warehouse receipts or bailee letters, in form acceptable to the Administrative Agent, in the name of the Administrative Agent evidencing the storage of Inventory and the interests of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders therein; (d) permit the Administrative Agent and its agents or representatives to inspect and examine the Inventory and to check and test the same as to quality, quantity, value and condition at any time or times hereafter during the VSE Entities’ usual business hours or at other reasonable times and (e) at the Administrative Agent’s request, designate the Administrative Agent as the consignee on all bills of lading and other negotiable and non-negotiable documents. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the VSE Entities shall be permitted to sell their Inventory in the ordinary course of business except while an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

6.20Insurance With Respect to Equipment and Inventory. The Borrowers will (a) maintain and cause each of their Subsidiaries to maintain hazard insurance with fire and extended coverage on the Equipment and Inventory in an amount at least equal to the lesser amount of the outstanding principal amount of the Obligations or the fair market value of the Equipment and Inventory (but in any event sufficient to avoid any co-insurance obligations) and with a specific endorsement to each such insurance policy pursuant to which the insurer provides for lender’s loss payee and additional insured endorsements in favor of Administrative Agent in a form acceptable to Administrative Agent, agrees to give the Administrative Agent at least thirty (30) days written notice before any alteration or cancellation of such insurance policy and that no act or default of any of the Borrowers shall affect the right of the Administrative Agent to recover under such policy in the event of loss or damage; (b) file, and cause each of their Subsidiaries to file, with the Administrative Agent, upon its request, a detailed list of the insurance then in effect and stating the names of the insurance companies, the amounts and rates of the insurance, dates of the expiration thereof and the properties and risks covered thereby; and (c) within thirty (30) days after notice in writing from the Administrative Agent, obtain, and cause each of their Subsidiaries to obtain, such additional insurance as the Administrative Agent may reasonably request.

6.21Hazardous Substance; Hazardous Waste. Each Borrower, for itself and its successors and assigns, hereby covenants and agrees to indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each Affiliate of a Lender that is at any time a counterparty under any Hedging Contract, and their respective officers, employees and agents, from and against any and all liabilities, losses, claims, damages, suits, penalties, costs and expenses of every kind or nature, including reasonable attorneys’ fees arising from or in connection with (i) the presence or alleged presence of any Hazardous Substance or Hazardous Waste on, under or about any property of any VSE Entity (including any property or premises now or hereafter owned or leased by any VSE Entity), or which is caused by or results from, directly or indirectly, any act or omission to act by any VSE Entity; and (ii) any VSE Entity’s violation of any environmental statute, ordinance, order, rule or regulation of any Government thereof (including any liability arising under CERCLA, RCRA, HMTA or any other Applicable Laws).

6.22Disaster Recovery and Contingency Program. Each Borrower will, and will cause each other VSE Entity to, implement and maintain at all times (and at least annually review the sufficiency of) a disaster recovery and contingency plan that addresses, in the reasonable business judgment of the VSE Entities, each VSE Entity’s plans for continuing operations upon the occurrence of a natural disaster or other event that destroys or prevents the use of or access to such VSE Entity’s primary computer systems, information databases, software applications, business records and operations facility. Such contingency plan at all times must be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent. Upon request, each Borrower will, and will cause each other VSE Entity to, provide the Administrative Agent with a current copy of such plan.

6.23Data Security. Each Borrower will, and will cause each VSE Entity to, take in such VSE Entity’s reasonable business judgment all appropriate technical and organizational measures to protect against a Data Breach and against accidental loss, alteration or damage or destruction of or damage to Personal Information. Each VSE Entity shall at all times in such VSE Entity’s reasonable business judgment have appropriate policies and procedures in place that are designed to: (a) protect the security of Personal Information; (b) protect against any anticipated threats to the security or integrity of Personal Information; (c) protect against Data Breaches; and (d) ensure the proper disposal of such Personal Information. To the extent that a Data Breach occurs (irrespective of cause), each Borrower shall: (i) promptly inform the Administrative Agent in writing; (ii) promptly inform any parties affected by the Data Breach; (iii) promptly comply with Applicable Laws, rules and regulations concerning such Data Breach; and (iv) use diligent efforts to mitigate any damages that have occurred as a result of such Data Breach.

6.24Further Assurances; Additional Requested Information. Each of the Borrowers will provide to the Administrative Agent such further assurances and additional documents regarding the Collateral and the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s security interest therein as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request, and each of the Borrowers will promptly provide the Administrative Agent with such additional information, reports and statements respecting the business, operations, properties and financial condition of each of the VSE Entities as the Administrative Agent may from time to time reasonably request. Furthermore, each of the Borrowers agrees to execute, re-execute, use commercially reasonably efforts to cause third parties involved in the

Loans to execute and/or re-execute and to deliver to the Administrative Agent or its legal counsel, as may be deemed appropriate, any document or instrument signed in connection with the Loan(s) which was incorrectly drafted and/or signed, as well as any document or instrument which should have been signed at or prior to the Restatement Date, but which was not so signed and delivered. The Borrowers agree to comply with any written request by the Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days (or if such compliance requires more than ten (10) Business Days, within a reasonable period of time, not to exceed thirty (30) days (or such longer period of time as agreed in writing by the Administrative Agent), so long as the Borrowers are diligently pursuing such compliance) after receipt by any Borrower of such request.

Pending such deposit, the Borrowers will not commingle any such items of payment with any of their other funds or property, but will hold them separate and apart. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the VSE Entities shall have the right to maintain certain other Deposit Accounts (each, a “Transitional Deposit Account”) in connection with any Permitted Acquisition, but only for a period of one hundred eighty (180) days after such Permitted Acquisition, as applicable, and provided further that (i) a wire transfer arrangement with the financial institution(s) maintaining such account(s) is in place on or prior to the effective date of such Permitted Acquisition, as applicable, and such arrangement remains in place at all times thereafter for so long as the Transitional Deposit Account remains open; and (ii) each Transitional Deposit Account shall (a) be used solely for the deposit/receipt of cash, checks and other remittances owing to the VSE Entities from time to time, and (b) be at all times, free and clear of any and all liens claims and encumbrances (other than the security interest of the Administrative Agent granted hereby and the rights and remedies of the financial institution maintaining such account, but only to the extent that the exercise of such rights and remedies by such financial institution can be based solely upon claims for reimbursement of normal and customary fees and charges for account maintenance and account administration).

Subject to this Agreement and any other Loan Document, the Administrative Agent may apply funds in such accounts to any of the Obligations, including any principal, interest or other payment(s) not made when due, whether arising under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or any other Obligation of the Borrowers, without regard to the origin of the deposits in the account, the beneficial ownership of the funds therein or whether such Obligations are owed jointly with another or severally; the order and method of such application to be in the sole discretion of the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent’s right to deduct sums due under the Loan Documents from the Borrowers’ account(s) shall not relieve the Borrowers from their obligation to make all payments required by the Loan Documents as and when required by the Loan Documents, and the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to make any such deductions or any liability whatsoever for any failure to do so.

(b)Terminate the Lenders’ obligation to make further disbursements of the Loan proceeds;

The Administrative Agent agrees to give the Borrowers written notice of the time and place of any public sale of the Collateral or any part thereof, and the time after which any private sale or any other intended disposition of the Collateral is to be made, and such notice will be mailed, postage prepaid, pursuant to Section 12.3 of this Agreement, at least ten (10) days before the time of any such

sale or disposition. Each Borrower hereby authorizes and appoints the Administrative Agent and its successors and assigns to (i) sell the Collateral, and (ii) declare that each Borrower assents to the passage of a decree by a court of proper jurisdiction for the sale of the Collateral. Any such sale pursuant to clauses (i) or (ii) above is to be made in accordance with the applicable provisions of the laws and rules of procedure of the State of New York or other Applicable Laws;

(h)Impose the Default Rate for the entire principal balance and other sums owing on the Obligations.

The Lenders and the Administrative Agent may exercise their respective rights under this Agreement or under any other Loan Document without exercising the rights or affecting the security afforded by any other Loan Document, and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may (or, at the direction of the Required Lenders, shall) proceed against all or any portion of the Collateral in such order and at such times as the Administrative Agent, in its sole discretion or at the direction of the Required Lenders, sees fit; and each Borrower hereby expressly waives, to the extent permitted by law, all benefit of valuation, appraisement, marshaling of assets and all exemptions under the laws of the State of New York or any other state, district or territory of the United States. Furthermore, if any Borrower shall default in the performance when due of any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent, without notice to or demand upon the Borrowers (and without any grace or cure period) and without waiving or releasing any of the Obligations or any default hereunder, under the Notes or under any other Loan Document, may (but shall be under no obligation to) perform the same for each Borrower’s account, and any monies expended in so doing shall be chargeable to the Borrowers with interest, at the highest rate of interest payable under all of the Notes, plus two percent (2%) per annum, and added to the Indebtedness secured by the Collateral.

All sums paid or advanced by the Administrative Agent (or any Lender to the extent incurred pursuant to this Agreement) in connection with the foregoing or otherwise in connection with the Loan, and all court costs and expenses of collection, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses (and fees and expenses resulting from the taking, holding or disposition of the Collateral) incurred in connection therewith shall be paid by the Borrowers upon demand and shall become a part of the Obligations secured by the Collateral. The Borrowers agree to bear the expense of each lien search, property and judgment report or other form of Collateral ownership investigation as the Administrative Agent, in its discretion, shall deem necessary or desirable to assure or further assure to the Lenders or the Administrative Agent their respective interests in the Collateral.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in the event that any Collateral proceeds shall have been received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender to pay any of the Obligations, such proceeds shall be applied first to the Obligations relating to, arising from or incurred in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in accordance with the terms and provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, Section 1.4(d) of this Agreement), and then to any other Obligations of the Borrowers. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, in no circumstances shall proceeds of any Collateral constituting an asset of a guarantor or obligor hereunder which is not a Qualified ECP Guarantor be applied towards the payment of any Obligations under Hedging Contracts.

All Hedging Contracts between any Borrower and any Lender or its Affiliates are independent agreements governed by the written provisions of said Hedging Contracts, which will remain in full force and effect unaffected by any repayment, prepayment, acceleration, reduction, increase or change in the terms of the Loans, except as otherwise expressly provided in said written Hedging Contracts, and any payoff statement from the Administrative Agent or any Lender relating to the Loans shall not apply to said Hedging Contracts, except as otherwise expressly provided in such payoff statement.

Citizens Bank affirms its agreement to act as the Administrative Agent on behalf of such Persons on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, subject to its right to resign as provided in Section 10.10 of this Agreement. Each Lender agrees that the rights and remedies granted to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be exercised exclusively by the Administrative Agent, and that no Lender shall have the right individually to exercise any such right or remedy, except to the extent expressly provided herein or therein.

10.2General Nature of Administrative Agent’s Duties. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Loan Document:

(a)the Administrative Agent shall have no duties or responsibilities other than those expressly set forth in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, and no implied duties or responsibilities on the part of the Administrative Agent shall be read into this Agreement or any other Loan Document or shall otherwise exist;

(b)the duties and responsibilities of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall be mechanical and administrative in nature, and the Administrative Agent shall not have a fiduciary relationship in respect of any Lender;

(c)the Administrative Agent is and shall be solely the agent of the Lenders. The Administrative Agent does not assume, and shall not at any time be deemed to have, any relationship of agency or trust with or for, or any other duty or responsibility to, any VSE Entity or any other Person (except only for its relationship as agent for, its express duties and responsibilities as agent for, and its express duties and responsibilities to, the Lenders as provided in this Agreement and the other Loan Documents); and

(d)the Administrative Agent shall not have any obligation to take any action hereunder or under any other Loan Document if the Administrative Agent believes in good faith that taking such action may (i) conflict with any Applicable Laws, or any provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) may require the Administrative Agent to qualify to do business in any jurisdiction where it is not then so qualified, or (iii) result in any liability of the Administrative Agent or any Lender not fully covered by insurance.

10.3Exercise of Powers.

(a)The Administrative Agent shall have the authority to take any action of the type specified in this Agreement or any other Loan Document as being within the Administrative Agent’s rights, powers or discretion, as it determines in its sole discretion, except as provided in Subsection (b) below, and except as provided herein or in any other Loan Document, when such action expressly requires the direction or consent of (i) the Required Lenders, or (ii) all of the Lenders, in either of which circumstances the Administrative Agent shall not take such action absent such direction or consent. Any action or inaction pursuant to such direction or consent shall be binding on all of the Lenders.

(b)Notwithstanding anything set forth in this Agreement to the contrary, the Administrative Agent shall not amend, modify, grant consents or waive any term or provision of this Agreement or any other Loan Document (and such amendment, modification, consent or waiver shall not be effective) without the consent or approval of the Required Lenders or all Lenders as applicable below in this paragraph, or declare an Event of Default, provide formal written notice of default to any Borrower or exercise any rights or remedies against any VSE Entity without the prior consent of the Required Lenders or all Lenders, as applicable below in this paragraph. For the avoidance of doubt, any waiver by the Administrative Agent of the Borrowers’ compliance with any Negative Covenant set forth in Article 7, or consent by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers’ non-compliance with any such Negative Covenant, shall require the prior written consent of the Required Lenders. Each Lender agrees that its decision to consent to or reject any request by the Administrative Agent for permission to declare an Event of Default, provide formal notice thereof to any Borrower and/or exercise any rights or remedies arising by virtue of such default, shall be made as soon as reasonably practicable after the Lender has received all relevant information with respect to such request (to the extent such information shall be readily available), but in all events within ten (10) Business Days of the receipt of such information, at which time any Lender who shall have failed to respond to the Administrative Agent with its decision to consent to or reject the particular request prior to the expiration of such ten (10) Business Day period shall be deemed to have consented to the particular request; it being understood and agreed that, unless otherwise provided herein, the Administrative Agent shall exercise any and all rights and responsibilities on behalf of the Lenders in connection with an Event of Default. Additionally, only with the consent or approval of all of the Lenders, the Administrative Agent may (and the following amendments may be effectuated) (a) extend the final maturity of the Loan or any Note, reduce the amount of, or extend the time of payment for, any installment of principal, interest or fees or other amounts payable to a Lender hereunder or under any other Loan Document or

otherwise in connection with the Loan other than Mandatory Payments, or issue Letters of Credit (i) having an expiration date beyond the Maturity Date, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, or (ii) causing the aggregate outstanding amount of all such Letters of Credit issued to exceed Twenty-Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($25,000,000.00), (b) increase the Percentage of the Commitment Amount of any Lender or increase the Commitment Amount of any Lender, other than pursuant to Section 1.8 and/or Section 1.9 of this Agreement, (c) release all or a substantial portion of the Collateral, except in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Loan Document; provided that the Administrative Agent may release the lien of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders in any Collateral to the extent sold by any Borrower in a transaction permitted by this Agreement, (d) amend the definition of “Required Lenders”, (e) consent to the release of any Borrower from, or the assignment or transfer by any Borrower of, any of its rights or obligations hereunder, except in accordance with the provisions of any applicable Loan Document, (f) amend, modify or waive any of the provisions set forth in this Section 10.3 or any other provision of this Agreement specifying the number or percentage of Lenders required to amend, waive or otherwise modify any rights hereunder or make any determination or grant any consent hereunder, (g) change the manner of application by the Administrative Agent of payments made under the Loan Documents or otherwise change any provision governing pro rata payments among Lenders, (h) change the method of calculation used in connection with the computation of interest, commissions or fees (which are payable for the ratable benefit of each Lender), (i) amend, modify or waive any condition precedent set forth in Article 4 of this Agreement or (j) subordinate the lien on all or a substantial portion of the Collateral granted in favor of the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lender, or subordinate the right of payment of the Obligations to any other Indebtedness (except pursuant to a transaction in which participation in such other Indebtedness for borrowed money is offered to the Lenders on a pro rata basis or in connection with a “debtor in possession” financing, on the same terms (including fees) as are offered to all other providers of such financing). Each Lender agrees that its decision to approve or reject any request for an amendment or waiver with respect to this Agreement shall be made, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, as soon as reasonably practicable after the Lender has received all relevant information with respect to such request. For the avoidance of doubt, a wholly-owned Affiliate that is a Borrower which becomes a non-wholly owned Affiliate shall not be released from their obligations as a Borrower hereunder without the consent of the Lenders (other than in connection with the sale of 100% of the equity interests of such Affiliate pursuant to a transaction permitted hereunder).

10.4General Exculpatory Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement or any other Loan Document:

(a)the Administrative Agent, in its capacity as Administrative Agent (but not as a Lender), shall not be liable for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in a manner consistent with the terms of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, unless caused by its own gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction;

(b)the Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for (i) the execution, delivery, effectiveness, enforceability, genuineness, validity or adequacy of this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) any recital, representation, warranty, document, certificate, report or statement in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iii) any failure of any VSE Entity or any Lender to perform any of their respective obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (iv) the existence, validity, enforceability, perfection, recordation, priority, adequacy or value, now or hereafter, of any lien or encumbrance or other direct or indirect security afforded or purported to be afforded by any of the Loan Documents, or otherwise from time to time, or (v) caring for, protecting, insuring or paying any taxes, charges or assessments with respect to any Collateral;

(c)the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation to ascertain, inquire or give any notice relating to (i) the performance or observance of any of the terms or conditions of this Agreement or any other Loan Document on the part of any VSE Entity, (ii) the business, operations, condition (financial or otherwise) or prospects of any VSE Entity, or (iii) except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Agreement, the occurrence or existence of any Event of Default; and

(d)the Administrative Agent shall have no obligation, either initially or on a continuing basis, to provide any Lender with any notices, reports or information of any nature, whether in its possession presently or hereafter, except for such notices, reports and other information expressly required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document to be furnished by the Administrative Agent to such Lender.

10.5Administration by the Administrative Agent.

(a)The Administrative Agent may rely upon any notice or other communication of any nature (written or oral, including telephone conversations, whether or not such notice or other communication is made in a manner permitted or required by this Agreement or any other Loan Document) purportedly made by or on behalf

of the proper party or parties, and the Administrative Agent shall not have any duty to verify the identity or authority of any person giving such notice or other communication.

(b)The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (including in-house counsel for the Administrative Agent), independent public accountants and any other experts selected by the Administrative Agent from time to time, and the Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any action reasonably taken or omitted to be taken in good faith by it in accordance with the advice of such counsel, accountants or experts.

(c)The Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed in any certificates or opinions furnished to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement or any other Loan Document. Whenever the Administrative Agent shall deem it necessary or desirable that a matter be proved or established with respect to any VSE Entity or any Lender, such matter may be established by a certificate of such Borrower or such Lender, as the case may be, and the Administrative Agent may conclusively rely upon such certificate.

(d)The Administrative Agent may fail or refuse to take any action unless it shall be indemnified to its satisfaction from time to time against any and all amounts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements of every kind and nature which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent by reason of taking or continuing to take any such action; provided that no Lender shall be obligated to indemnify the Administrative Agent for any portion of such amounts, liabilities, obligations, losses, damages, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs, expenses and disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Administrative Agent, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(e)The Administrative Agent may perform any of its duties under this Agreement or any other Loan Document by or through agents or attorneys-in-fact. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any agents or attorneys-in-fact selected by it with reasonable care.

(f)The Administrative Agent shall not be deemed to have any knowledge or notice of the occurrence of any Event of Default (other than a default in the payment of regularly scheduled principal or interest), unless the Administrative Agent has received from a Lender or a Borrower a written notice describing the Event of Default. If the Administrative Agent receives such a notice, the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice thereof to each Lender, unless such notice shall have been addressed and/or issued to all of the Lenders.

10.6Lenders Not Relying on the Administrative Agent or Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges as follows:

(a)neither the Administrative Agent nor any other Lender has made any representations or warranties to it, and no act taken hereafter by the Administrative Agent or any other Lender shall be deemed to constitute any representation or warranty by the Administrative Agent or such other Lender to it;

(b)it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit and legal analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement and the other Loan Documents; and

(c)it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender, and based upon such documents and information as it shall deem appropriate at the time, make its own decisions to take or not take action under or in connection with this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

10.7Indemnification. Each Lender agrees to reimburse and indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger (each solely in their capacity as such) and the Administrative Agent’s and the Lead Arranger’s respective directors, officers, employees and agents (to the extent not reimbursed by the Borrowers, and without limitation of the obligation of the Borrowers to do so), ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Percentage, from and against any and all amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs and disbursements of every kind or nature (including the reasonable fees and disbursements of counsel for the Administrative Agent or such other Person in connection with any investigative, administrative or judicial proceeding commenced or threatened, whether or not the Administrative Agent or such other Person shall be designated a party thereto) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or such other Person as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any transaction from time to time contemplated hereby or thereby, or any transaction financed in whole or in part or directly or indirectly with the proceeds of the Loan; provided that no Lender shall be obligated to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such

other Person for any portion of such amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnity, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

10.8Administrative Agent in its Individual Capacity. With respect to its commitment and the Obligations owing to it, Citizens Bank shall have the same rights and powers under this Agreement and each other Loan Document as any other Lender, and may exercise the same as though it was not the Administrative Agent. The terms “Lender,” “holders of Notes” and like terms shall include Citizens Bank in its individual capacity. Citizens Bank and its Affiliates may, without liability to account therefor, make loans to, accept deposits from, acquire debt or equity interests in, act as trustee under indentures of and engage in any other business with any VSE Entity and any Affiliate of any VSE Entity, as though Citizens Bank was not the Administrative Agent hereunder.

10.9Holders of Notes. Without limiting the requirements of Section 12.11 of this Agreement, the Administrative Agent may deem and treat any Lender which is the payee of a Note as the owner and holder of such Note for all purposes hereof unless and until written notice evidencing such transfer shall have been filed with the Administrative Agent. Any authority, direction or consent of any Person who at the time of giving such authority, direction or consent was a Lender shall be conclusive and binding on each present and subsequent holder, transferee or assignee of any Note or Notes payable to such Lender or issued in exchange therefor.

10.10Successor Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent may resign at any time by giving thirty (30) days prior written notice thereof to the Lenders and Borrowers, subject to appointment of a successor Administrative Agent (and such appointees acceptance of appointment) as below provided in this Section 10.10. Additionally, the Administrative Agent may be removed for cause by all of the Lenders (other than the Administrative Agent, if the Administrative Agent is then a Lender), if removal or resignation, as applicable, is requested in writing (which wording must specifically identify the “cause” for removal), and ten (10) days’ prior written notice of removal or resignation is provided to the Administrative Agent and Borrowers. Upon any such resignation or removal, the Required Lenders shall, on behalf of the Lenders, immediately appoint, as its successor, another Lender; provided that such Lender is a commercial bank or trust company organized under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof and has a combined capital and surplus of at least Five Hundred Million and No/100 Dollars ($500,000,000.00) (a “Qualifying Person”). In such event, the Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal shall not be effective until the successor Administrative Agent shall have accepted its appointment, provided that if the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrowers that no Qualifying Person has accepted such appointment, then such resignation shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice, and the retiring Administrative Agent, as the case may be, shall be discharged from its duties and obligations under this Agreement. Upon the acceptance by a successor Administrative Agent of its appointment as the Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor Administrative Agent shall thereupon succeed to and become vested with all of the properties, rights, powers, privileges and duties of the former Administrative Agent, without further act, deed or conveyance. Upon the effective date of resignation or removal of the retiring Administrative Agent and payment of all amounts then due and payable by the Administrative Agent to the Lenders pursuant to this Agreement, such Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. If for any reason, at any time, there is no Administrative Agent hereunder, then during such period, the Required Lenders shall have the right to exercise the Administrative Agent’s rights and perform its duties hereunder, except that (a) all notices or other communications required or permitted to be given to the Administrative Agent shall be given to each Lender, and (b) all payments to be made to the Administrative Agent shall be made directly to the Borrowers or the Lender for whose account such payment is made.

10.11Additional Agents. If the Administrative Agent shall from time to time deem it necessary or advisable to engage other agents for its own protection in the performance of its duties hereunder or in the interests of the Lenders, then the Administrative Agent and Borrowers shall execute and deliver a supplemental agreement and all other instruments and agreements necessary or advisable, in the opinion of the Administrative Agent, to constitute another commercial bank or trust company, or one or more other Persons approved by the Administrative Agent, to act as co-Administrative Agent or a separate agent with respect to any part of the Collateral, with such powers as may be provided in such supplemental agreement, and with the power to vest in such bank, trust company or other Person (as such co-Administrative Agent or separate agent, as the case may be), any properties, rights, powers, privileges and duties of the Administrative Agent under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

10.12Calculations. The Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any calculation, apportionment or distribution of payments made by it in good faith. If such calculation, apportionment or distribution is subsequently determined to have been made in error, the sole recourse of any Lender to whom payment was due but not made shall be to recover from the Lenders any payment in excess of the amount to which they are determined to be entitled, with interest thereon at the Federal Funds Rate, or, if the amount due was not paid

by any Borrower, to recover such amount from such Borrower (subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement), with interest thereon at the rate provided in the applicable Note.

10.13Funding by the Administrative Agent.

(a)Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Administrative Agent alone shall be entitled to make all advances in connection with the Loan and shall receive all payments and other receipts relating to the Loan; it being understood, however, that the Administrative Agent has reserved the right not to advance any amounts to the Borrowers which the Administrative Agent has not received from the Lenders. The Administrative Agent will notify each Lender of the date and amount of any requested advance, and if such notification is received by 1:00 p.m. New York, NY time on any given Business Day, the Lenders shall provide the required funds to the Administrative Agent no later than the close of business (i) on such Business Day in the case of Base Rate Loans and (ii) on the date specified for payments, in the case of SOFR Rate Loans, Daily Simple RFR Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans. At any time as may be requested by the Administrative Agent or the Swing Line Lender, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall pay to each other such amounts (the “Equalization Payments”) as may be necessary to cause each Lender to own its applicable Percentage of the Loan and otherwise implement the terms and conditions of this Agreement; it being understood that each Lender shall be entitled to receive interest on amounts advanced by it only from the date of such Lender’s advance of funds. The obligation of the Administrative Agent and each Lender to make Equalization Payments shall not be affected by a bankruptcy filing by any VSE Entity, the occurrence of any Event of Default or any other act, occurrence or event whatsoever, whether the same occurs before, on or after the date on which an Equalization Payment is required to be made. All Equalization Payments shall be made by 5:00 p.m. New York, NY time on the date such payment is required, provided that notice of such Equalization Payment shall have been given to the party obligated to make such payment by 1:00 p.m. New York, NY time; otherwise such Equalization Payment shall be made on the next Business Day.

(b)Unless the Administrative Agent shall have been notified in writing by any Lender no later than the close of business on the Business Day before the Business Day on which an advance requested by the Borrowers is to be made, that such Lender will not make its ratable share of such advance, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender will make its ratable share of the advance, and in reliance upon such assumption the Administrative Agent may (but in no circumstances shall be required to) make available to the Borrowers a corresponding amount. If and to the extent that any Lender fails to make such payment to the Administrative Agent when required, such Lender shall pay such amount on demand (or, if such Lender fails to pay such amount on demand, the Borrowers shall arrange for the repayment of such amount to the Administrative Agent), together with interest for the Administrative Agent’s own account for each day from and including the date of the Administrative Agent’s payment, to and including the date of repayment to the Administrative Agent (before and after judgment). Interest (i) if paid by such Lender (a) for each day from and including the date of the Administrative Agent’s payment to and including the second Business Day thereafter, shall accrue at the Federal Funds Rate for such day, and (b) for each day thereafter, shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum payable under the Notes; and (ii) if paid by the Borrowers, shall accrue at the rate or rates per annum payable under the Notes. All payments to the Administrative Agent under this Section shall be made to the Administrative Agent at its office set forth in Section 12.3 of this Agreement (or as otherwise directed by the Administrative Agent), in dollars, in immediately available funds, without set-off, withholding, counterclaim or other deduction of any nature.

(c)All borrowings under this Agreement shall be incurred from the Lenders pro rata on the basis of their respective Percentages (except to the extent advanced (i) as a Swing Line Loan, or (ii) by the Administrative Agent on behalf of any Lender as provided in Subsection (a) or (b) above). No Lender shall be responsible for any other Lender’s failure to meet its obligation to make advances hereunder, and each Lender shall be obligated to make advances required to be made by it hereunder regardless of the failure of any other Lender to make its advances hereunder.

(d)Subject to the payment or prepayment of all Hedging Obligations (including all applicable termination payments), each payment and prepayment received by the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders shall be distributed first to the Swing Line Lender for application to any Swing Line Outstandings, and then to each Lender entitled to share in such payment, ratably in accordance with each Lender’s Percentage. Notwithstanding Section 9.2(e) of this Agreement, any Lender who has failed to fund its Percentage of any advance under the Loan shall not be entitled to share in any such payment(s) until such time as the funding deficiency caused thereby, together with interest thereon (as provided in Subsection (b) above), has been paid to the Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Payments from the Administrative Agent to the Lenders shall be made by wire transfer in accordance with written instructions provided to the Administrative Agent by the Lenders from time to time. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received written notice from the Borrowers prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Lenders hereunder that the Borrowers will not make such payment in full, the Administrative Agent may assume that the Borrowers have made such payment in full on such date and the Administrative Agent, in reliance upon such assumption, may 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 the Borrowers shall not have made such payment in full to the Administrative Agent, each Lender shall repay to the Administrative Agent upon its demand therefor such amount distributed to such Lender, together with interest thereon at the overnight Federal Funds Rate 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.

(e)If any Lender shall obtain any payment (whether voluntary, involuntary, through the exercise of any right of setoff, or otherwise) in excess of such Lender’s Percentage of payments, such Lender shall forthwith purchase from the other Lender(s) such participations in the Loans made by them as shall be necessary to cause such purchasing Lender to share the excess payment ratably with each of the other Lender(s); provided, however, if all or any portion of such excess payment is thereafter recovered from such purchasing Lender, such purchase from the other Lender(s) shall be rescinded and each other Lender shall repay to the purchasing Lender the purchase price to the extent of such recovery, together with an amount equal to such Lender’s ratable share (according to the proportion of (i) the amount of such Lender’s required repayment, to (ii) the total amount so recovered from the purchasing Lender) of any interest or other amount paid or payable by the purchasing Lender in respect of the total amount recovered. Each Borrower agrees that any Lender purchasing a participation from another Lender pursuant to this Section 10.13(e), to the fullest extent permitted by law, may exercise all of its rights of payment with respect to such participation as fully as if such Lender were the direct creditor of the Borrowers in the amount of such participation.

(f)No Lender nor any Affiliate of any Lender shall collect any separate remuneration (i.e., in addition to any remuneration paid on a pro rata basis to all Lenders) as an inducement for such Lender entering into any waiver or amendment to this Agreement.

10.14Benefit of Article. The provisions of this Article 10 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in this Article 10, no VSE Entity shall have any rights under any of the provisions of this Article 10; it being understood that the provisions of this Article 10 are not in limitation of any right, remedy, power, duty, obligation or liability which the Administrative Agent would have to or against any VSE Entity.

10.15Field Audits and Examination Reports; Confidentiality; Disclaimers by Lenders; Other Reports and Information. By becoming a party to this Agreement, each Lender:

(a)is deemed to have requested that the Administrative Agent furnish such Lender, promptly after it becomes available, a copy of each field audit or examination report (each a “Report” and collectively, “Reports”) prepared by or at the request of the Administrative Agent, and the Administrative Agent shall so furnish each Lender with such Reports;

(b)expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Administrative Agent does not (i) make any representation or warranty as to the accuracy of any Report, and (ii) shall not be liable for any information contained in any Report;

(c)expressly agrees and acknowledges that the Reports are not comprehensive audits or examinations, that the Administrative Agent or other party performing any audit or examination will inspect only specific information regarding the VSE Entities and will rely significantly upon the VSE Entities’ books and records, as well as on representations of the VSE Entities’ personnel;

(d)subject to any applicable reporting and/or disclosure requirements of the Government, agrees to take normal and reasonable precautions to maintain the confidentiality of all Reports and other material, non-public information regarding the VSE Entities and their operations, assets, and existing and contemplated business plans; it being understood and agreed that such information may be disclosed by any Lender (i) to its Affiliates, authorized representatives, accountants, legal counsel or other advisors who are bound by comparable confidentiality provisions or have agreed to comply with the confidentiality requirements of this Section, (ii) to the extent requested by applicable law, court order or decree or any regulatory agency or authority purporting to have jurisdiction over it (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (iii) to the extent such information becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section, or which is or becomes available to such Lender on a non-confidential basis from a source other than the Borrowers, (iv) in connection with the exercise of any remedy hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any suit, action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (v) subject to execution by such Person of an agreement containing provisions substantially the same as those of this Section, to (A) any assignee or prospective assignee of any of such Lender’s rights or obligations under this Agreement, or (B) any actual or prospective party (or its Affiliates) to any swap or derivative or

other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrowers and their obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (vi) to any rating agency that requires access to information about a Lender’s investment or loan portfolio in connection with ratings issued with respect to such Lender, (vii) to the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar organization, or (viii) with the prior consent of the Borrowers. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of any information as provided for in this Section shall be considered to have complied with its obligation to do so if such Person has exercised the same degree of care to maintain the confidentiality of such information as such Person would accord its own confidential information; and

(e)without limiting the generality of any other indemnification provision contained in this Agreement, agrees: (i) to hold the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from any action the indemnifying Lender may take or fail to take or any conclusion the indemnifying Lender may reach or draw from any Report in connection with any loans or other credit accommodations that the indemnifying Lender has made or may make to the Borrowers, or the indemnifying Lender’s participation in, or the indemnifying Lender’s purchase of, a loan or loans of the Borrowers; and (ii) to pay and protect, and indemnify, defend and hold the Administrative Agent, and any such other Lender preparing a Report harmless from and against, the claims, actions, proceedings, damages, costs, expenses, and other amounts (including, attorneys fees and costs) incurred by the Administrative Agent and any such other Lender preparing a Report as the direct or indirect result of the sharing of such Report with any third parties who might obtain all or part of any Report through the indemnifying Lender; provided that no Lender shall be obligated to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such other Person for any portion of such amounts, losses, liabilities, claims, damages, expenses, obligations, penalties, actions, judgments, suits, costs or disbursements resulting solely from the gross negligence or willful misconduct of the Person seeking indemnity, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

In addition to the foregoing: (i) any Lender may from time to time request of the Administrative Agent in writing that the Administrative Agent provide to such Lender a copy of any report or document provided by the Borrowers to the Administrative Agent that has not been contemporaneously provided by the Borrowers to such Lender, and, upon receipt of such request, the Administrative Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender, it being understood and agreed that the items required to be delivered pursuant to Sections 6.3(a) and 6.3(b) of this Agreement shall be posted to Syndtrak upon receipt by the Administrative Agent; and (ii) to the extent that the Administrative Agent is entitled, under any provision of the Loan Documents, to request additional reports or information from the Borrowers, any Lender may, from time to time, reasonably request the Administrative Agent to exercise such right as specified in such Lender’s notice to the Administrative Agent, whereupon the Administrative Agent promptly shall request of the Borrowers the additional reports or information reasonably specified by such Lender, and, upon receipt thereof from the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent promptly shall provide a copy of same to such Lender.

10.16Replacement of Lenders. If (a) any Lender requests compensation under Section 12.8 of this Agreement and/or Exhibit 3 attached hereto (other than a Loan Prepayment Fee), (b) the Borrowers are required to pay any additional amount to any Lender or any Government for the account of any Lender pursuant to Section 12.20 of this Agreement, (c) a Lender (a “Non-Consenting Lender”) does not consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document that has been approved by the Required Lenders but requires unanimous consent of all Lenders or all Lenders directly affected thereby (as applicable) or (d) any Lender is a Defaulting Lender, then the Borrowers may, at their sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse, all of its interests, rights and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which Eligible Assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that: (i) the Borrowers shall have paid, or caused to be paid, to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee; (ii) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to 100% of the outstanding principal of its Loans and Letters of Credit, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrowers (in the case of all other amounts); (iii) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a claim for compensation under Exhibit 3 attached hereto or payments required to be made pursuant to Exhibit 3 attached hereto, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter; (iv) such assignment does not conflict with Applicable Laws; and (v) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a Non-Consenting Lender’s failure to consent to a proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination with respect to any Loan Document, the applicable assignee consents to the proposed change, waiver, discharge or termination; provided that the failure by such Non-Consenting Lender to execute and deliver an assignment shall not impair the validity of the removal of such Non-Consenting Lender and the mandatory assignment of such Non-Consenting Lender’s Commitments and outstanding Loans and participations in Letters of Credit and Swing Line Loans pursuant to this Section shall nevertheless be effective without the execution by such Non-Consenting Lender of an assignment. A Lender shall not be required to make any such assignment or delegation if, prior thereto, as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise, the circumstances entitling the Borrowers to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

10.17Defaulting Lender Provisions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as such Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law,

(a)Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of any Defaulting Lender under this Agreement (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity or otherwise) from the Borrowers for the account of a Defaulting Lender under this Agreement will not be required to be paid or distributed to such Defaulting Lender, but will instead be applied at such time or times as may be determined by the Administrative Agent as follows: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent under this Agreement; second, to the funding of any Loan advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; and third, if so determined by the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers, held in an account as cash collateral for future funding obligations of the Defaulting Lender in respect of any Loan advances under this Agreement. If such Lender is still a Defaulting Lender and any amounts remain in such account on the date that the Loan commitments are terminated and all payment obligations of the Borrowers hereunder are paid in full, then such amounts will be applied by the Administrative Agent to the making of payments in the following order of priority: first, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent hereunder; second, with respect to the Revolving Facility, to the payment of any amounts owing by such Defaulting Lender to the Swing Line Lender hereunder; third, to the funding of any Loan advance in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; fourth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders or the Swing Line Lender as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender or the Swing Line Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fifth, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrowers as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrowers against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and sixth, to pay amounts owing under this Agreement to such Defaulting Lender or as a court of competent jurisdiction may otherwise direct; provided that any amounts held as cash collateral for funding obligations of a Defaulting Lender shall be returned to such Defaulting Lender upon the termination of this Agreement and the satisfaction of such Defaulting Lender’s obligations hereunder. Any payments, prepayments or other amounts paid or payable to a Defaulting Lender that are applied (or held) to pay amounts owed by a Defaulting Lender or to post cash collateral pursuant to this Section 10.17 shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(b)No Commitment Amount of any Lender shall be increased or otherwise affected, and, except as otherwise expressly provided in this Section 10.17, performance by the Borrowers of their obligations shall not be excused or otherwise modified as a result of the operation of this Section 10.17. The rights and remedies against a Defaulting Lender under this Section 10.17 are in addition to any other rights and remedies which the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the Swing Line Lender) may have against such Defaulting Lender.

(c)In the case of a Defaulting Lender that is a Revolving Facility Lender, all or any part of such Defaulting Lender’s participation in Swing Line Loan advances shall be reallocated among the Non-Defaulting Lenders under the Revolving Facility in accordance with their respective Percentages (calculated without regard to such Defaulting Lender’s Revolving Facility Commitment Amount) but only to the extent that (x) no default or Event of Default exists at the time of such reallocation (and, unless the Borrowers shall have otherwise notified the Administrative Agent at such time, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have represented and warranted that such condition is satisfied at such time), and (y) such reallocated participation does not, as to any Revolving Facility Lender, exceed such Lender’s unused Revolving Facility Commitment Amount. No reallocation hereunder shall constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder against a Defaulting Lender arising from that Lender having become a Defaulting Lender, including any claim of a Non-Defaulting Lender as a result of such Non-Defaulting Lender’s increased exposure following such reallocation.

(d)If the reallocation described in clause (c) above cannot, or can only partially, be effected, the Borrowers shall, without prejudice to any right or remedy available to it hereunder or under law, prepay Swing Line Facility advances in an amount equal to the amount of the participation of the Defaulting Lenders.

If the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent agree in writing in their reasonable determination that a Defaulting Lender should no longer be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the applicable parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein (which may include arrangements with respect to any cash collateral), that Lender will, to the extent applicable, purchase that portion of outstanding advances of the other Lenders or take such other actions as the Administrative Agent may determine to be necessary to cause the advances to be funded and held on a pro rata basis by the Lenders in accordance with their Percentages of the applicable Facility or Facilities, whereupon such Lender

will cease to be a Defaulting Lender; provided that no adjustments will be made retroactively with respect to fees accrued or payments made by or on behalf of the Borrowers 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 such Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

So long as any Revolving Facility Lender is a Defaulting Lender, no Swing Line Lender shall be required to fund any Swing Line Loan advances unless the participations of Defaulting Lenders in such Swing Line Loan advances have been fully reallocated in accordance with Section 10.17(c).

10.18Certain ERISA Matters.

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

(i)such Lender is not using “plan assets” (within the meaning of 29 CFR § 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of one or more Benefit Plans in connection with such Lender’s Loan advances or Loan commitments hereunder,

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

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

(b)In addition, unless either (1) sub-clause (i) in the immediately preceding clause (a) is true with respect to a Lender or (2) a Lender has provided another representation, warranty and covenant in accordance with sub-clause (iv) in the immediately preceding clause (a), such Lender further (x) represents and warrants, as of the date such Person became a Lender party hereto, to, and (y) covenants, from the date such Person became a Lender party hereto to the date such Person ceases being a Lender party hereto, for the benefit of, the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates, and not, for the avoidance of doubt, to or for the benefit of the Borrowers, that none of the Administrative Agent, the Lead Arranger and their respective Affiliates is a fiduciary with respect to the assets of such Lender involved in such Lender’s entrance into, participation in, administration of and performance of the Loans, the Letters of Credit, the commitments and this Agreement (including in connection with the reservation or exercise of any rights by the Administrative Agent under this Agreement, any Loan Document or any documents related hereto or thereto).

(c)For purposes hereof, the term (i) “Benefit Plan” means any of (a) an “employee benefit plan” (as defined in ERISA) that is subject to Title I of ERISA, (b) a “plan” as defined in Section 4975 of the Code or (c) any Person whose assets include (for purposes of ERISA Section 3(42) or otherwise for purposes of Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) the assets of any such “employee benefit plan” or “plan” and (ii) “PTE” means a prohibited transaction class exemption issued by the U.S. Department of Labor, as any such exemption may be amended from time to time.

10.19Erroneous Payments.

(a)If the Administrative Agent notifies a Lender or LC Issuer, or any Person who has received funds on behalf of a Lender or LC Issuer (any such Lender, LC Issuer or other recipient, a “Payment Recipient”) that Administrative Agent has determined in its sole discretion (whether or not after receipt of any notice under Section 10.19(b) of this Agreement) that any funds received by such Payment Recipient from the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates were erroneously transmitted to, or otherwise erroneously or mistakenly received by, such Payment Recipient (whether or not known to such Lender, LC Issuer or other Payment Recipient on its behalf) (any such funds, whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise, individually and collectively, an “Erroneous Payment”) and demands the return of such Erroneous Payment (or a portion thereof), such Erroneous Payment shall at all times remain the property of the Administrative Agent and shall be segregated by the Payment Recipient and held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent, and such Lender or LC Issuer shall (or, with respect to any Payment Recipient who received such funds on its behalf, shall cause such Payment Recipient to) promptly, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, return to the Administrative Agent the amount of any such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) as to which such a demand was made, in same day funds (in the currency so received), together with interest thereon in respect of each day from and including the date such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) was received by such Payment Recipient to the date such amount is repaid to the Administrative Agent in same day funds at the greater of the Federal Funds Rate and a rate determined by the Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation from time to time in effect. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Payment Recipient under this Section shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(b)Without limiting the provisions of Section 10.19 of this Agreement, each Payment Recipient hereby further agrees that if it receives a payment, prepayment or repayment (whether received as a payment, prepayment or repayment of principal, interest, fees, distribution or otherwise) from the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) (x) that is in a different amount than, or on a different date from, that specified in a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates) with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment, (y) that was not preceded or accompanied by a notice of payment, prepayment or repayment sent by the Administrative Agent (or any of its Affiliates), or (z) that such Payment Recipient otherwise becomes aware was transmitted, or received, in error or by mistake (in whole or in part), in each case:

(i)(A) in the case of immediately preceding clauses (x) or (y), an error shall be presumed to have been made (absent written confirmation from the Administrative Agent to the contrary) or (B) in the case of immediately preceding clause (z), an error has been made, in each case, with respect to such payment, prepayment or repayment; and

(ii)such Lender or LC Issuer shall (and shall cause any other recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf to) promptly (and, in all events, within one (1) Business Day of its knowledge of such error) notify the Administrative Agent of its receipt of such payment, prepayment or repayment, the details thereof (in reasonable detail) and that it is so notifying the Administrative Agent pursuant to this Section.

(c)Each Lender or LC Issuer hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off, net and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender or LC Issuer under any Loan Document, or otherwise payable or distributable by the Administrative Agent to such Lender or LC Issuer from any source, against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under Section 10.19(a) of this Agreement or under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement.

(d)In the event that an Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) is not recovered by the Administrative Agent for any reason, after demand therefor by the Administrative Agent in accordance with Section 10.19(a) of this Agreement, from any Lender or LC Issuer that has received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) (and/or from any Payment Recipient who received such Erroneous Payment (or portion thereof) on its respective behalf) (such unrecovered amount, an “Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency”), upon the Administrative Agent’s notice to such Lender or LC Issuer at any time, (i) such Lender or LC Issuer shall be deemed to have assigned its Loans (but not its Commitments) with respect to which such Erroneous Payment was made (the “Erroneous Payment Impacted Class”) in an amount equal to the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (or such lesser amount as the Administrative Agent may specify) (such assignment of the Loans (but not Commitments) of the Erroneous Payment Impacted Class, the “Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment”) at par plus any accrued and unpaid interest (with the assignment fee to be waived by the Administrative Agent in such instance), and is hereby (together with the Primary Operating Company) deemed to execute and deliver an Assignment and Acceptance with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and such Lender or LC Issuer shall deliver any Notes evidencing such Loans to the Primary Operating Company or the Administrative Agent, (ii) the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall be deemed to acquire the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, (iii) upon such

deemed acquisition, the Administrative Agent as the assignee Lender shall become a Lender or LC Issuer, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and the assigning Lender or assigning LC Issuer shall cease to be a Lender or LC Issuer, as applicable, hereunder with respect to such Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, its obligations under the indemnification provisions of this Agreement and its applicable Commitments which shall survive as to such assigning Lender or assigning LC Issuer and (iv) the Administrative Agent may reflect in the Register its ownership interest in the Loans subject to the Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment. The Administrative Agent may, in its discretion, but subject to Section 12.11, sell any Loans acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment and upon receipt of the proceeds of such sale, the Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency owing by the applicable Lender or LC Issuer shall be reduced by the net proceeds of the sale of such Loan (or portion thereof), and the Administrative Agent shall retain all other rights, remedies and claims against such Lender or LC Issuer (and/or against any recipient that receives funds on its respective behalf). For the avoidance of doubt, no Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment will reduce the Commitments of any Lender or LC Issuer and such Commitments shall remain available in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In addition, each party hereto agrees that, except to the extent that the Administrative Agent has sold a Loan (or portion thereof) acquired pursuant to an Erroneous Payment Deficiency Assignment, and irrespective of whether the Administrative Agent may be equitably subrogated, the Administrative Agent shall be contractually subrogated to all the rights and interests of the applicable Lender or LC Issuer under the Loan Documents with respect to each Erroneous Payment Return Deficiency (the “Erroneous Payment Subrogation Rights”).

(e)The parties hereto agree that an Erroneous Payment shall not pay, prepay, repay, discharge or otherwise satisfy any Obligations owed by any Borrower or any other VSE Entity, 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 any Borrower or any other VSE Entity for the purpose of making such Erroneous Payment.

(f)To the extent permitted by applicable law, no Payment Recipient shall assert any right or claim to an Erroneous Payment, and hereby waives, and is deemed to waive, any claim, counterclaim, defense or right of set-off or recoupment with respect to any demand, claim or counterclaim by the Administrative Agent for the return of any Erroneous Payment received, including without limitation waiver of any defense based on “discharge for value” or any similar doctrine.

Each party’s obligations, agreements and waivers under this Section 10.19 of this Agreement shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent, any transfer of rights or obligations by, or the replacement of, a Lender or LC Issuer, the termination of the Commitments and/or the repayment, satisfaction or discharge of all Obligations (or any portion thereof).

ARTICLE 11
CERTAIN ADDITIONAL RIGHTS AND
OBLIGATIONS REGARDING THE COLLATERAL

11.1Power of Attorney. Each Borrower hereby reaffirms its irrevocable appointment of the Administrative Agent, as its agent and attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, having full power and authority, in its own name, in the name of any Lender(s), in the name of any VSE Entity or otherwise (but at the cost and expense of the Borrowers and without notice to any VSE Entity), to (a) upon an Event of Default, notify Account Debtors obligated on any of the Receivables to make payments thereon directly to the lockbox referenced in Section 11.2 of this Agreement, and to take control of the cash and non-cash proceeds of any such Receivables, which right the Administrative Agent may exercise at any time whether or not an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing hereunder or was theretofore making collections thereon; (b) upon an Event of Default, compromise, extend or renew any of the Collateral constituting Receivables or deal with any of the Collateral as the Administrative Agent may deem advisable; (c) upon an Event of Default, release its interest in, make exchanges or substitutions for and/or surrender, all or any part of any Borrower’s interest in all or any part of the Collateral; (d) upon an Event of Default, remove from any VSE Entity’s place(s) of business all books, records, ledger sheets, correspondence, invoices and documents relating to or evidencing any of the Collateral, or without cost or expense to the Administrative Agent, make such use of any VSE Entity’s place(s) of business as may be reasonably necessary to administer, control and/or collect the Collateral; (e) upon an Event of Default, repair, alter or supply goods, if any, necessary to fulfill in whole or in part the purchase order of any Account Debtor; (f) demand, collect receipt for and upon an Event of Default, give renewals, extensions, discharges and releases of all or any part of the Collateral; (g) upon an Event of Default, institute and prosecute legal and equitable proceedings to enforce collection of, or realize upon, all or any part of the Collateral; (h) upon an Event of Default, settle, renew, extend, compromise, compound, exchange or adjust claims with respect to all or any part of the Collateral or any legal proceedings brought with respect thereto; and (i) upon an Event of Default, receive and open all mail addressed to any VSE Entity (other than mail sent to any lockbox established pursuant to Section 11.2 of this Agreement which may be

received and opened in the ordinary course of such lockbox procedures irrespective of whether any Event of Default has occurred), and if an Event of Default exists hereunder, notify the Post Office authorities to change the address for the delivery of mail to any VSE Entity to such address as the Administrative Agent may designate; it being understood that the rights granted to the Administrative Agent in this clause (i), which are operative on the occurrence of an Event of Default, shall not in any way limit or impair the other rights provided to the Administrative Agent or Lenders in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, including their rights with respect to the Collateral Account and the below-referenced lockbox. Furthermore, each Borrower hereby reaffirms its irrevocable appointment of the Administrative Agent, as its agent and attorney-in-fact, with power of substitution, having full power and authority, in its own name, in the name of any Lender(s), in the name of any Borrower or otherwise (but at the cost and expense of the Borrowers and without notice to any Borrower) and regardless of whether an Event of Default has occurred or any act, event or condition which with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default has occurred, to (a) file financing statements and continuation statements covering the Collateral and execute the same on behalf of any Borrower; (b) charge against any banking account of any VSE Entity any item of payment credited to any VSE Entity’s account which is dishonored by the drawee or maker thereof; or (c) endorse the name of any VSE Entity upon any items of payment relating to the Collateral or upon any proof of claim in bankruptcy against any Account Debtor.

11.2Lockbox. Each Borrower hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to receive and collect any amount or amounts due or to become due on account of any Receivables and, at its discretion, to apply the same to the repayment of the Notes, and each Borrower represents, warrants, acknowledges and agrees that, except where a Permitted Foreign Bank Account or Transitional Deposit Account is being used, within five (5) Business Days of the Administration Agent’s request, it shall establish and shall continually maintain on terms and conditions satisfactory to the Administrative Agent in all respects, one or more lockboxes and one or more blocked accounts (if either or both are required by the Administrative Agent) for the collection of Receivables. Except as otherwise may be approved by the Administrative Agent in writing, any checks or other remittances received by any Borrower in payment of the Receivables shall be held in trust by each Borrower for the Administrative Agent and the Lenders.

11.3Other Agreements. Except as may otherwise be expressly permitted by the terms of this Agreement, and without limiting any other restrictions or provisions of this Agreement, each Borrower will (a) on demand, subject to any confidentiality and secrecy requirements imposed by any Government agency, make available in form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent, shipping documents and delivery receipts evidencing the shipment of goods which gave rise to the sale or lease of Inventory or of an Account, contract right or Chattel Paper, completion certificates or other proof of the satisfactory performance of services which gave rise to the sale or lease of Inventory or of an Account, contract right or Chattel Paper, and each Borrower’s copy of any written contract or order from which a sale or lease of Inventory, an Account, contract right or Chattel Paper arose; and (b) when requested, advise the Administrative Agent when an Account Debtor returns or refuses to retain any goods, the sale or lease of which gave rise to an Account, contract right or Chattel Paper, and of any delay in delivery or performance, or claims made in regard to any sale or lease of Inventory, an Account, contract right or Chattel Paper. Upon reasonable notice, all such records will be available for examination by authorized agents of the Administrative Agent.

It is expressly understood and agreed, however, that the Administrative Agent shall not be required or obligated in any manner to make any inquiries as to the nature or sufficiency of any payment received by it or to present or file any claims or take any other action to collect or enforce a payment of any amounts which may have been assigned to the Administrative Agent or to which the Administrative Agent or the Lenders may be entitled hereunder at any time or times.

ARTICLE 12
MISCELLANEOUS

12.1Remedies Cumulative. Each right, power and remedy of the Administrative Agent or Lenders (or, as applicable, Affiliates of the Lenders) provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise, shall be cumulative and concurrent and shall be in addition to every other right, power or remedy provided for in this Agreement or in any other Loan Document, or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity, by statute or otherwise, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise by the Administrative Agent or any Lender of any one or more of such rights, powers or remedies shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise by the Administrative Agent or any such Lender (or, as applicable, any Affiliate of a Lender) of any or all such other rights, powers or remedies.

12.2Waiver. Time is of the essence of this Agreement. No failure or delay by the Administrative Agent to insist upon the strict performance of any term, condition, covenant or agreement set forth in this Agreement or any other Loan Document, or to exercise any right, power or remedy consequent upon a breach thereof, shall constitute a waiver of such term, condition, covenant or agreement or of any such breach, or preclude the

Administrative Agent or any Lender from exercising any such right, power or remedy at any later time or times. By accepting payment after the due date of any of the Obligations, neither the Lenders nor the Administrative Agent shall be deemed to have waived either the right to require prompt payment when due of all other Obligations, or the right to declare a default for failure to make payment of any such other Obligations.

12.3Notices. Notices to either party shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally or by first-class mail or nationally-recognized overnight delivery service or by facsimile or email (as provided below) addressed to the parties at the addresses set forth below or otherwise designated in writing:

The Administrative Agent, the Lenders or the Borrowers may, in their 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. The parties acknowledge and agree that no notice of the occurrence of a default or Event of Default shall be sent by e-mail.

Unless the Administrative Agent otherwise prescribes, (a) notices and other communications sent to an electronic mail (“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 acknowledgement), 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 (and received, if the acknowledgment contemplated above has been obtained) at the opening of business on the next business day for the recipient, and (b) 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 (a) of notification that such notice or communication is available and identifying the website address therefor.

12.4Entire Agreement; Amendment and Restatement; Severability. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents constitute the entire agreement of the parties with respect to the Loan and supersede all prior agreements and understandings; it being expressly understood and agreed that this Agreement is a complete amendment and restatement of the Existing Loan Agreement, the terms and conditions of which have been superseded and replaced in their entirety by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that this Agreement is given as a continuation, modification and extension of the Existing Loan Agreement and shall not constitute a novation of the Existing Loan Agreement. This Agreement and the other Loan Documents shall continue in full force and effect for so long as the Borrowers shall be indebted hereunder or under the Notes (or any Lender has any outstanding commitments to lend hereunder), and thereafter until the Lenders shall have actually received written notice of the termination hereof from the Borrowers and all Obligations incurred or contracted before receipt of such notice shall have been fully paid. In the event any one or more of the provisions contained in any Loan Document shall for any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of the Loan Documents, but the Loan Documents shall be construed as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained therein.

12.5Relationship of the Parties. This Agreement provides for the extension of financial accommodations by each Lender, in its capacity as lender, to the Borrowers, in their capacity as borrowers, and for the payment of interest and repayment of the Obligations by the Borrowers. Certain provisions herein, such as those relating to compliance with the financial covenants, delivery to the Administrative Agent of financial statements, and compliance with other affirmative and negative covenants are for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to protect the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ interests in assuring repayment of the Obligations. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be construed as permitting or obligating the Lenders or Administrative Agent to act as a financial or business advisor or consultant to any Borrower, as permitting or obligating the Lenders or Administrative Agent to control any Borrower or to conduct any Borrower’s operations, as creating any fiduciary obligation on the part of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to any Borrower, or as creating any joint venture, agency or other relationship between the parties other than as explicitly and specifically stated in this Agreement. Each Borrower acknowledges that it has had the opportunity to obtain the advice of experienced counsel of its own choosing in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and to obtain the advice of such counsel with respect to all matters contained herein, including the provision in this Agreement for waiver of trial by jury. Each Borrower further acknowledges that it is experienced with respect to financial and credit matters and has made its own independent decision to request the Obligations and execute and deliver this Agreement.

12.6Waiver of Jury Trial and Certain Damages. Each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender hereby (a) covenants and agrees not to elect a trial by jury of any issue triable by a jury, and (b) waives any right to trial by jury and any right to claim consequential, punitive, incidental or special damages fully to the extent that any such right shall now or hereafter exist. This waiver of right to trial by jury and right to claim consequential, punitive, incidental or special damages is separately given by each Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender, knowingly and voluntarily, and this waiver is intended to encompass individually each instance and each issue as to which the right to a jury trial or the right to claim consequential, punitive, incidental or special damages would otherwise accrue. The Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are hereby authorized and requested to submit this Agreement to any court having jurisdiction over the subject matter and the parties hereto, so as to serve as conclusive evidence of each herein contained waiver of the right to jury trial and right to claim consequential, punitive, incidental or special damages. Further, each Borrower hereby certifies that no representative or agent of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (including the Administrative Agent’s counsel) has represented, expressly or otherwise, to the undersigned that the Administrative Agent or Lenders will not seek to enforce this provision waiving the right to a trial by jury or any right to claim consequential, punitive, incidental or special damages.

12.7Submission to Jurisdiction; Service of Process; Venue. Any judicial proceeding brought against any Borrower with respect to this Agreement or any other Loan Document may be brought in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the for the Southern District of New York and any appellate court from any thereof, and by execution and delivery of this Agreement, each Borrower accepts for itself and in connection with its properties, generally and unconditionally, the exclusive jurisdiction of the aforesaid court, and irrevocably agrees to be bound by any judgment rendered by such court in connection with this Agreement. Each Borrower irrevocably designates and appoints the General Counsel of the Primary Operating Company, whose address is c/o VSE Corporation, 6348 Walker Lane, Alexandria, VA 22310, as its agent to receive on its behalf service of all process in any such proceeding in the courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County and of the United States District Court of the for the Southern District of New York and any appellate court from any thereof, such service being hereby acknowledged by each Borrower to be effective and binding on it in every respect. A copy of any such process so served shall be mailed by registered or certified mail to the Borrowers at the address to which notices are to be addressed in accordance with this Agreement, except that any failure to mail such copy shall not affect the validity of service of process. The Borrowers shall at all times maintain an agent for service of process pursuant to this provision. If any Borrower fails to appoint such an agent, or if such agent refuses to accept service, such Borrower hereby agrees that service upon it by mail shall constitute sufficient notice. Nothing herein shall affect the right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right of the Administrative Agent or the Lenders to bring proceedings against any Borrower in the courts of any other jurisdiction.

12.8Changes in Capital Requirements. If any change in, or the introduction, adoption, effectiveness, interpretation, reinterpretation or phase-in of, the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act approved by the federal Government on June 30, 2010, Basel III adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision or any other law or regulation, directive, guideline, decision or request (whether or not having the force of law) of any court, central bank, regulator or other Government affects or would affect the amount of capital or liquidity required or expected to be maintained by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, or person controlling the Administrative Agent or any Lender, and the Administrative Agent determines (in its sole and absolute discretion) that the rate of return on its, such Lender’s or such controlling person’s capital as a consequence of its commitments or the loans made by the Administrative Agent or such Lender is reduced to a level below that which the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such controlling person could have achieved but for the occurrence of any such circumstance, then, in any such case upon notice from time to time by the Administrative Agent to the Borrowers, the Borrowers shall immediately pay directly to the Administrative Agent, for its own account or for the account of such Lender (as the case may be), additional amounts sufficient to compensate the Administrative Agent, such Lender or such controlling person for such reduction in rate of return. A statement of the Administrative Agent as to any such additional amount or amounts (including calculations thereof in reasonable detail) shall, in the absence of manifest error, be conclusive and binding on the Borrowers. In determining such amount, the Administrative Agent may use any method of averaging and attribution that it (in its sole and absolute discretion) shall deem applicable.

12.9Other Agents, Arrangers, Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the facing page or signature pages of this Agreement as a “syndication agent”, “documentation agent”, “co-agent”, “book manager”, “book running manager”, “lead manager”, “arranger”, “lead arranger” or “co-arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of such Lenders, those applicable to all Lenders as such. Without limiting the foregoing, none of the Lenders or other Persons so identified shall have or be deemed to have any fiduciary relationship with any Lender. Each Lender acknowledges that it has not relied, and will not rely, on any of the Lenders or other Persons so identified in deciding to enter into this Agreement or in taking or not taking action hereunder.

12.10Modification and Waiver. Subject to Section 10.3 of this Agreement, neither this Agreement nor any term, condition, covenant or agreement hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but that may be accomplished only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.

12.11Transferability.

(a)No Borrower shall assign any of its rights, interests or Obligations under this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

(b)No Lender shall assign its interests under this Agreement or any other Loan Document to any Person, without the prior written consent of both the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers; provided that (i) the Borrowers’ consent shall not be required for assignments from one Lender to another Lender or to its affiliates or at any time during which an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing or a funded Term Loan to an Eligible Assignee; and (ii) the Borrowers’ consent and the Administrative Agent’s consent shall not be unreasonably

withheld or delayed. Subject to obtaining such consent (as required), any Lender may assign its interest at any time under this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, provided that (a) the purchaser of any such interest is an Eligible Assignee, and if such assignment is an unfunded revolving commitment, whose total assets exceed Five Hundred Million and No/100 Dollars ($500,000,000.00); (b) prior written notice of such sale or assignment, which notice must identify the name, address and contact person of the Eligible Assignee, shall have been issued by such transferring Lender to the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers; (c) the dollar equivalent of the Percentage of the transferring Lender being assigned equals or exceeds Five Million and No/100 Dollars ($5,000,000.00) or such lesser amount as may constitute such transferring Lender’s remaining Percentage; (d) the Administrative Agent shall have received a duly executed Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, in the form of Exhibit 8 attached hereto (each, an “Assignment and Acceptance Agreement”); and (e) if the proposed assignee of the transferring Lender is not an Affiliate of the transferring Lender or another Lender hereunder, an assignment fee in the amount of Three Thousand Five Hundred and No/100 Dollars ($3,500.00) shall have been paid to the Administrative Agent to reimburse the Administrative Agent for costs and expenses incurred in connection with the assignment. No Lender may assign its interests to a Borrower or an Affiliate of a Borrower or to a natural Person, holding company, investment vehicle or trust for, or owned and operated for the primary benefit of, a natural Person.

(c)Subject to the acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, the Eligible Assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, have the rights and obligations of a Lender under this Agreement, and the assigning Lender thereunder shall, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance Agreement, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Acceptance Agreement covering all of the assigning Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement, such Lender shall cease to be a party hereto but shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Sections 12.20 and 12.21 of this Agreement with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment). Upon request, and the surrender by the assigning Lender of its Note, the Borrowers (at their expense) shall execute and deliver a Note to the assignee Lender. Any assignment or transfer by a Lender of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this clause shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Lender of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Subsection (e) below.

(d)The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of the Borrowers, shall maintain a copy of each Assignment and Acceptance Agreement delivered to it and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and their Percentage of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans, participations under Letters of Credit and other amounts due hereunder, or owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. The Register shall be available for inspection by any Lender (with respect to any entry relating to such Lender’s Loans or Percentage) or the Borrowers at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(e)Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrowers or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural person) (each, a “Participant”) in all or a portion of such Lender’s rights and/or obligations under this Agreement (including all or a portion of its Percentage of the Loans (including such Lender’s participations in the Letters of Credit or Swing Line Loans) owing to it); provided that (i) such Lender’s obligations under this Agreement shall remain unchanged, (ii) such Lender shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations and (iii) the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and the other Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. Any agreement or instrument pursuant to which a Lender sells such a participation shall provide that such Lender shall retain the sole right to enforce this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents provided that the participation agreement may permit the participant to vote on issues requiring the consent of all Lenders.

(f)A Participant shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment hereunder than the applicable Lender would have been entitled to receive with respect to the participation sold to such Participant, unless the sale of the participation to such Participant is made with the Borrowers’ prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

(g)Any Lender may at any time pledge or assign a security interest in all or any portion of its rights under this Agreement (including under its Note) to secure obligations of such Lender, including any pledge or assignment to secure obligations to a Federal Reserve Bank; provided that no such pledge or assignment shall release

such Lender from any of its obligations hereunder or substitute any such pledgee or assignee for such Lender as a party hereto.

(h)The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in any Assignment and Acceptance Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures or the keeping of records in electronic form, each of which shall be of the same legal effect, validity or enforceability as a manually executed signature or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, to the extent and as provided for in any applicable law, including the Federal Electronic Signatures in Global and National Commerce Act, the New York State Electronic Signatures and Record Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act.

12.12Governing Law; Binding Effect. This Agreement, and any claim, controversy or dispute arising under or related to this Agreement, the relationship of the Borrowers and the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders and/or the interpretation and enforcement of the rights and duties of the Borrowers, the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders, shall be governed and construed by the laws of the State of New York (without regard to conflict of laws principles) and be binding upon each Borrower and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.

12.13Announcements. In consideration of the Administrative Agent’s and the Lenders’ agreements hereunder, each Borrower consents to the publication by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of one or more tombstones or similar advertising material relating to the financing transactions contemplated by this Agreement so long as no economic or financial details are contained therein (but permitting however, a description of the type and purpose of the Loans), and further consents to the reasonable use by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders of each VSE Entity’s name, trademark, logo and other identifying images to identify the Borrowers as customers of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders and/or otherwise to reasonable use by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders in each of their promotional and other marketing campaigns and activities. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders reserve the right to provide to industry trade organizations information necessary and customary for inclusion in league table measurements; provided, however, that none of the Administrative Agent nor the Lenders shall provide any information of any financial, confidential or proprietary nature to such industry trade organizations without the prior written consent of the Borrowers.

12.14Joint and Several Liability. Each Borrower shall be jointly and severally liable for the payment and performance of all obligations and liabilities hereunder.

12.15Materiality. Unless the context clearly indicates to the contrary, determinations regarding the materiality of any act, event, condition or circumstance shall be in the reasonable judgment of the Administrative Agent.

12.16Allowed Delay. The due date or end date of anything that would otherwise be due or end on a day that is not a Business Day shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day unless such Business Day falls in another calendar month, in which case such due date or end date shall be on the next preceding Business Day.

12.17Reliance on the Administrative Agent. Each Borrower shall be entitled to assume that any and all consents, approvals or notices issued or granted by the Administrative Agent pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement were, to the extent necessary, authorized by the Required Lenders or all of the Lenders, as applicable.

12.18The Patriot Act. The Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereby notify the Borrowers that pursuant to the requirements of the Patriot Act, they are required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the VSE Entities, which information includes the name and address of the VSE Entities and other information that will allow the Administrative Agent and the Lenders to identify the VSE Entities in accordance with the Patriot Act.

12.19Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, all of which together shall constitute one and the same document. Each party hereto hereby agrees to be bound by its facsimile or PDF signature.

12.20Taxes. All payments by the Borrowers of principal of, and interest on, the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder shall be made free and clear of and without deduction for any present or future income, excise, stamp or franchise taxes and other taxes, fees, duties, withholdings or other charges of any nature

whatsoever imposed by any taxing authority, but excluding franchise taxes and taxes imposed on or measured by the Administrative Agent’s or any Lender’s Net Income or receipts (such non-excluded items being called “Taxes”). If any withholding or deduction from any payment to be made by the Borrowers hereunder is required in respect of any Taxes pursuant to any applicable law, rule or regulation, then the Borrowers will:

(A) pay directly to the relevant authority the full amount required to be so withheld or deducted;

(B) promptly forward to the Administrative Agent an official receipt or other documentation satisfactory to the Administrative Agent evidencing such payment to such authority; and

(C) pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account or for the account of such Lender (as the case may be), such additional amount or amounts as is necessary to ensure that the net amount actually received by the Administrative Agent, for its own account or for the account of such Lender (as the case may be), will equal the full amount the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as applicable) would have received had no such withholding or deduction been required.

Moreover, if any Taxes are directly asserted against the Administrative Agent or any Lender with respect to any payment received by the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder, the Administrative Agent or such Lender may pay such Taxes and the Borrowers will promptly pay such additional amount (including any penalties, interest or expenses) as is necessary in order that the net amount received by the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) after the payment of such Taxes (including any Taxes on such additional amount) shall equal the amount the Administrative Agent or such Lender (as the case may be) would have received had such Taxes not been asserted.

If the Borrowers fail to pay any Taxes when due to the appropriate taxing authority or fail to remit to the Administrative Agent the required receipts or other required documentary evidence, the Borrowers shall indemnify the Administrative Agent and the Lenders for any incremental Taxes, interest or penalties that may become payable by the Administrative Agent or any Lender as a result of any such failure.

If a payment made to a Lender under any Loan Document would be subject to US federal withholding tax imposed under FATCA if such Lender were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA, such Lender shall deliver to the Primary Operating Company and to the Administrative Agent, if applicable, at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by the Primary Operating Company or the Administrative Agent such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by the Primary Operating Company or the Administrative Agent as may be necessary for the Primary Operating Company or the Administrative Agent to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Lender has complied with such Lender’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount, if any, to deduct and withhold from such payment. Solely for purposes of this paragraph, "FATCA" shall include any amendments made to FATCA after the date of this Agreement.

12.21Indemnity.

(a)Each Borrower, on its own behalf, and on behalf of each other VSE Entity, releases and shall indemnify, defend and hold harmless the Administrative Agent, each Lender and each Affiliate of a Lender that is at any time a counterparty under a Hedging Contract, and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents (each an “indemnified party”), of and from any claims, demands, liabilities, obligations, judgments, injuries, losses, penalties, damages and costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent or any Lender or any other indemnified party (collectively, “Losses”) (i) resulting from, under, pursuant or related to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents, in breach or violation of any representation, warranty, covenant or undertaking contained in this Agreement or the other Loan Documents, or caused by acts or conduct of the VSE Entities (ii) resulting from any VSE Entity's failure to comply with any or all laws, statutes, ordinances, Government rules, regulations or standards, whether federal, state or local, or court or administrative orders or decrees, (including, without limitation, CERCLA, HMTA, RCRA or any other applicable environmental law, rule, order or regulation ), (iii) resulting from any claim by any other creditor of any VSE Entity against the Administrative Agent or any Lender arising out of any

transaction, whether hereunder or in any way related to the Loan Documents and all costs, expenses, fines, penalties or other damages resulting therefrom, and (iv) resulting from or caused by any third party or any VSE Entity in connection with or as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan Document, any transaction from time to time contemplated hereby or thereby, or any transaction financed in whole or in part, or directly or indirectly, with the proceeds of any Loan made hereunder; provided, however, that no indemnified party hereto shall be entitled to indemnification for Losses to the extent such Losses arise out of such indemnified party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct, as finally determined by a court of competent jurisdiction.

(b)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under Subsection (a) above of notice of the commencement of any action by a third party, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such Subsection, notify the indemnifying party in writing of the commencement thereof. The failure to so notify the indemnifying party shall relieve the indemnifying party from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party under such Subsection only if the indemnifying party is unable to defend such actions as a result of such failure to so notify. In case any such action shall be brought against any indemnified party and it shall notify the indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it shall wish, jointly with any other indemnifying party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel satisfactory to such indemnified party (who shall not, except with the consent of the indemnified party, be counsel to the indemnifying party), and, after notice from the indemnifying party to such indemnified party of its election so to assume the defense thereof, the indemnifying party shall not be liable to such indemnified party under such Subsection for any legal expenses of other counsel, in each case subsequently incurred by such indemnified party, in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation. The indemnifying party cannot settle any action for which it has assumed the defense without the indemnified party’s express written consent.

12.22Acknowledgment Regarding any Supported QFCs. To the extent that the Loan Documents provide support, through a guarantee or otherwise, for any Hedging Contract or any other agreement or instrument that is a QFC (such support, “QFC Credit Support”, and each such QFC, a “Supported QFC”), the parties acknowledge and agree as follows with respect to the resolution power of the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation under the Federal Deposit Insurance Act and Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (together with the regulations promulgated thereunder, the “U.S. Special Resolution Regimes”) in respect of such Supported QFC and QFC Credit Support (with the provisions below applicable notwithstanding that the Loan Documents and any Supported QFC may in fact be stated to be governed by the laws of the State of New York and/or of the United States or any other state of the United States): In the event a Covered Entity that is party to a Supported QFC (each, a “Covered Party”) becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, the transfer of such Supported QFC and the benefit of such QFC Credit Support (and any interest and obligation in or under such Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support, and any rights in property securing such Supported QFC or such QFC Credit Support) from such Covered Party will be effective to the same extent as the transfer would be effective under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and such QFC Credit Support (and any such interest, obligation and rights in property) were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. In the event a Covered Party or a BHC Act Affiliate of a Covered Party becomes subject to a proceeding under a U.S. Special Resolution Regime, Default Rights under the Loan Documents that might otherwise apply to such Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support that may be exercised against such Covered Party are permitted to be exercised to no greater extent than such Default Rights could be exercised under the U.S. Special Resolution Regime if the Supported QFC and the Loan Documents were governed by the laws of the United States or a state of the United States. Without limitation of the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that rights and remedies of the parties with respect to a Defaulting Lender shall in no event affect the rights of any Covered Party with respect to a Supported QFC or any QFC Credit Support.

As used in this Section 12.22, 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.

“Covered Entity” means any of the following:

(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.

12.23Acknowledgement and Consent to Bail-In of Affected Financial Institutions. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any Loan Document or in any other agreement, arrangement or understanding among any such parties, each party hereto acknowledges that any liability of any Affected Financial Institution arising under any Loan Document, to the extent such liability is unsecured, may be subject to the write-down and conversion powers of the applicable Resolution Authority and agrees and consents to, and acknowledges and agrees to be bound by:

(a) the application of any Write-Down and Conversion Powers by the applicable Resolution Authority to any such liabilities arising hereunder which may be payable to it by any party hereto that is an Affected Financial Institution; and

(b) the effects of any Bail-in Action on any such liability, including, if applicable:

(i) a reduction in full or in part or cancellation of any such liability;

(ii) a conversion of all, or a portion of, such liability into shares or other instruments of ownership in such Affected Financial Institution, its parent undertaking, or a bridge institution that may be issued to it or otherwise conferred on it, and that such shares or other instruments of ownership will be accepted by it in lieu of any rights with respect to any such liability under this Agreement or any other Loan Document; or

(iii) the variation of the terms of such liability in connection with the exercise of the write-down and conversion powers of any applicable Resolution Authority.

INTEREST ELECTION PROCEDURE AND REQUIREMENTS

The Borrowers’ right to obtain RFR, Eurocurrency or Term SOFR based interest shall be subject to the following conditions:

(a)Continuation and Conversion Elections. By delivering an Interest Election Form and Certification to the Administrative Agent on or before 10:00 a.m., New York, NY time, on an RFR Business Day, the Borrowers may from time to time irrevocably elect, on not less than three (3) RFR Business Days nor more than five (5) RFR Business Days notice, that all, or any portion in an aggregate minimum amount of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) and integral multiples of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00), of (i) any Eurocurrency Rate Loan be converted on the last day of an Interest Period into a Eurocurrency Rate Loan with a different Interest Period, or continued on the last day of an Interest Period as a Eurocurrency Rate Loan with a similar Interest Period or (ii) any SOFR Rate Loan be converted on the last day of an Interest Period into a SOFR Rate Loan with a different Interest Period, or continued on the last day of an Interest Period as a SOFR Rate Loan with a similar Interest Period, provided, however, that no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any SOFR Rate Loans may be converted to, or continued as, SOFR Rate Loan when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing or when any act, event or condition exists or has occurred which with notice or the lapse of time, or both, would constitute an Event of Default, and no portion of the outstanding principal amount of any SOFR Rate Loans may be converted to, SOFR Rate Loans of a different duration if such SOFR Rate Loans relate to any Hedging Obligations. In the absence of delivery of an Interest Election Form and Certification with respect to (i) any SOFR Rate Loan at least three (3) RFR Business Days before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such SOFR Rate Loan shall, on such last day, automatically convert to a Loan that accrues interest on a Base Rate basis or (ii) any Eurocurrency Rate Loan at least three (3) RFR Business Days before the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto, such Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall, on such last day, automatically convert to a Loan that accrues interest at the Adjusted Eurocurrency rate for a one month Interest Period. No more than six (6) different SOFR and Eurocurrency funding segments may be outstanding at any time.

(b)Repayments, Prepayments and Interest.

(i)Repayments, Continuations and Conversions. Except as otherwise expressly set forth in any Note, SOFR Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall mature and become payable in full on the last day of the Interest Period relating to such SOFR Rate Loan or and Eurocurrency Rate Loan. Upon maturity, a SOFR Rate Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan may be continued for an additional Interest Period, or a SOFR Rate Loan may be converted to a Loan that accrues interest on a Base Rate basis.

(ii)Voluntary Prepayment of SOFR Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans. SOFR Rate Loans and Eurocurrency Rate Loans may be prepaid upon the terms and conditions set forth herein and in the Notes. For SOFR Rate Loans in connection with which the Borrowers have or may incur Hedging Obligations, additional obligations may be associated with prepayment, in accordance with the terms and conditions of the applicable Hedging Contracts. The Borrowers shall give the Administrative Agent, no later than 10:00 a.m., New York, NY time, at least three (3) RFR Business Days’ notice of any proposed prepayment of any SOFR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, specifying the proposed date of payment of such Loans, and the principal amount to be paid. Each partial prepayment of the principal amount of SOFR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be in an integral multiple of One Hundred Thousand and No/100 Dollars ($100,000.00) and be accompanied by the payment of all charges outstanding on such Loans and of all accrued interest on the principal repaid to the date of payment. The Borrowers acknowledge that prepayment or acceleration of a SOFR Rate Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan during an Interest Period shall result in the Administrative Agent and/or the Lenders (as applicable) incurring additional costs, expenses and/or liabilities and that it is extremely difficult and impractical to ascertain the extent of such costs, expenses and/or liabilities. Therefore, all full or partial prepayments of SOFR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans shall be accompanied by, and the Borrowers hereby promise to pay, on each date a SOFR Rate Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan is prepaid or the date all sums payable hereunder become due and payable, by acceleration or otherwise, in addition to all other sums then owing, an amount (“Loan Prepayment Fee”) determined by the Administrative Agent as necessary to compensate each Lender for any loss, cost and expense attributable to such event, including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or redeployment of funds.

(iii)Interest Provisions. Interest on the outstanding principal amount of each (A) Term SOFR Rate Loan shall accrue during the Interest Period applicable thereto at a rate equal to the sum of Term SOFR for such Interest Period plus the applicable Additional Term SOFR Interest Margin thereto and be payable on each Interest Payment Date, (B) Eurocurrency Rate Loan shall accrue during the Interest Period applicable thereto at a rate equal to the sum of the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate for such Interest Period plus the applicable Additional Eurocurrency Interest Margin thereto and be payable on each Interest Payment Date and (C) Daily Simple RFR Loan shall accrue at a rate equal to the sum of Adjusted Daily Simple RFR plus the applicable Additional Daily Simple RFR Interest Margin thereto and be payable on each Interest Payment Date.

(c)Changed Circumstances.

(i)Circumstances Affecting Eurocurrency Rates and RFRs. Subject to clause (iii) below, in connection with any RFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan, a request therefor, a conversion to or a continuation thereof or otherwise, if for any reason (A) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) if Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Adjusted Daily Simple RFR pursuant to the definition thereof or (y) if Term SOFR or a Eurocurrency Rate is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, reasonable and adequate means do not exist for ascertaining Term SOFR or such Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, for the applicable Currency and the applicable Interest Period with respect to a proposed SOFR Rate Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as applicable, on or prior to the first day of such Interest Period, (B) the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that a fundamental change has occurred in the foreign exchange or interbank markets with respect to an applicable Alternative Currency (including changes in national or international financial, political or economic conditions or currency exchange rates or exchange controls), (C) with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Administrative Agent shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that deposits are not being offered in the applicable Currency to banks in the London or other applicable offshore interbank market for the applicable Currency, amount or Interest Period of such Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or (D) the Required Lenders shall determine (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that (x) if Adjusted Daily Simple RFR is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans or (y) if Term SOFR or a Eurocurrency Rate is utilized in any calculations hereunder or under any other Loan Document with respect to any Obligations, interest, fees, commissions or other amounts, Term SOFR or such Eurocurrency Rate, as applicable, does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of making or maintaining such Loans during the applicable Interest Period and, in the case of (x) or (y), the Required Lenders have provided notice of such determination to the Administrative Agent, then, in each case, the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice thereof to the Borrower. Upon notice thereof by the Administrative Agent to the Borrower, any obligation of the Lenders to make RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as applicable, in each such Currency, and any right of the Borrowers to convert any Loan in each such Currency (if applicable) to or continue any Loan as an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as applicable, in each such Currency, shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, in the case of SOFR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the affected Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent (with respect to clause (D), at the instruction of the Required Lenders) revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (A) the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans in each such affected Currency (to the extent of the affected RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans or, in the case of SOFR Rate Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, the affected Interest Periods) or, failing that, (I) in the case of any request for a borrowing of an affected SOFR Rate Loan, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (II) in the case of any request for a borrowing of an affected RFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan in an Alternative Currency, then such request shall be ineffective and (B)(I) any outstanding affected SOFR Rate Loans will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period and (II) any outstanding affected Loans denominated in an Alternative Currency, at the Borrowers’ election, shall either be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period or be prepaid in full immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period; provided that if no election is made by the Borrowers by the date that is the earlier of (x) three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Borrowers of such notice or (y) with respect to a Eurocurrency Rate Loan the last day of the current Interest Period, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest (except with respect to any prepayment or conversion of a Daily Simple RFR Loan) on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any required Loan Prepayment Fee.

(ii)Laws Affecting Eurocurrency Rate or RFR Availability. If, after the date hereof, the introduction of, or any change in, any Applicable Law or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by any of the Lenders (or any of their respective lending offices) with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such Governmental Authority, central bank or comparable agency, shall make it unlawful or impossible for any of the Lenders (or any of their respective lending offices) to honor its obligations hereunder to make or maintain any Daily Simple RFR Loan, SOFR Rate Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan, or to determine or charge interest based upon any applicable RFR, Adjusted Daily Simple RFR, the Term SOFR Reference Rate, Term SOFR, the Eurocurrency Rate or the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate, such Lender shall promptly give notice thereof to the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent shall promptly give notice to the Borrowers and the other Lenders (an “Illegality Notice”). Thereafter, until each affected Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Administrative Agent notifies the Borrowers that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist, (i) any obligation of the Lenders to make RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, as applicable, in the affected Currency or Currencies, and any right of the Borrowers to convert any Loan denominated in Dollars to a SOFR Rate Loan or continue any Loan as an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, as applicable, in the affected Currency or Currencies shall be suspended and (ii) if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”. Upon receipt of an Illegality Notice, the Borrowers shall, if necessary to avoid such illegality, upon demand from any Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay or, if applicable, (A) convert all SOFR Rate Loans to Base Rate Loans or (B) convert all RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans denominated in an affected Alternative Currency to Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) (in each case, if necessary to avoid such illegality, the Administrative Agent shall compute the Base Rate without reference to clause (c) of the definition of “Base Rate”), (I) with respect to Daily Simple RFR Loans, on the Interest Payment Date therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Daily Simple RFR Loans to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Daily Simple RFR Loans to such day or (II) with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans or SOFR Rate Loans, on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if all affected Lenders may lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or SOFR Rate Loans, as applicable, to such day, or immediately, if any Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Eurocurrency Rate Loans or SOFR Rate Loans, as applicable, to such day. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest (except with respect to any prepayment or conversion of a Daily Simple RFR Loan) on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional Loan Prepayment Fee.

(iii)Benchmark Replacement Setting.

A.Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event with respect to any Benchmark, the Administrative Agent and the Borrowers may amend this Agreement to replace such Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement. Any such amendment with respect to a Benchmark Transition Event will become effective at 5:00 p.m. on the fifth (5th) Business Day after the Administrative Agent has posted such proposed amendment to all affected Lenders and the Borrowers so long as the Administrative Agent has not received, by such time, written notice of objection to such amendment from Lenders comprising the Required Lenders. No replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this clause (A) will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. No Hedge Agreement shall be deemed to be a “Loan Document” for purposes of this clause (iii).

B.Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the Administrative Agent will have the right to make Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, any amendments implementing such Conforming Changes will become effective without any further action or consent of any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

C.Notices; Standards for Decisions and Determinations. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers and the Lenders of (x) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement and (y) the effectiveness of any Conforming Changes in connection with the use, administration, adoption or implementation of a Benchmark Replacement. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify the Borrowers of the removal or reinstatement of any tenor of a Benchmark pursuant to clause (iii)(D) below. 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 clause (iii), including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action or any selection, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party to this Agreement or any other Loan Document, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this clause (iii).

D.Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in any other Loan Document, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (A) if any then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including the Term SOFR Reference Rate or EURIBOR) and either (1) 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 (2) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is not or will not be representative, then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor and (B) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to clause (A) above either (1) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (2) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is not or will not be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Administrative Agent may modify the definition of “Interest Period” (or any similar or analogous definition) for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor.

E.Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the Borrowers’ receipt of notice of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to a given Benchmark, (A) the Borrowers may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of, conversion to or continuation of RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case, to be made, converted or continued during any Benchmark Unavailability Period denominated in the applicable Currency and, failing that, (I) in the case of any request for any affected SOFR Rate Loans, if applicable, the Borrowers will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a borrowing of or conversion to Base Rate Loans in the amount specified therein and (II) in the case of any request for any affected RFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan, in each case, in an Alternative Currency, if applicable, then such request shall be ineffective and (B)(I) any outstanding affected SOFR Rate Loans, if applicable, will be deemed to have been converted into Base Rate Loans at the end of the applicable Interest Period and (II) any outstanding affected RFR Loans or Eurocurrency Rate Loans, in each case, denominated in an Alternative Currency, at the Borrowers’ election, shall either (1) be converted into Base Rate Loans denominated in Dollars (in an amount equal to the Dollar Equivalent of such Alternative Currency) immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period or (2) be prepaid in full immediately or, in the case of Eurocurrency Rate Loans, at the end of the applicable Interest Period; provided that, with respect to any Daily Simple RFR Loan, if no election is made by the Borrowers by the date that is three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Borrowers of such notice, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above; provided, further that, with respect to any Eurocurrency Rate Loan, if no election is made by the Borrowers by the earlier of (x) the date that is three (3) Business Days after receipt by the Borrowers of such notice and (y) the last day of the current Interest Period for the applicable Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the Borrowers shall be deemed to have elected clause (1) above. Upon any such prepayment or conversion, the Borrowers shall also pay accrued interest (except with respect to any prepayment or conversion of a Daily Simple RFR Loan) on the amount so prepaid or converted, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to clause (iv) below. During a Benchmark Unavailability Period with respect to any Benchmark or at any time that a tenor for any then-current Benchmark is not an Available Tenor, the component of the Base Rate based upon the then-current Benchmark that is the subject of such Benchmark Unavailability Period or such tenor for such Benchmark, as applicable, will not be used in any determination of Base Rate.

(iv)Indemnities. In addition to the Loan Prepayment Fee, the Borrowers hereby indemnify each of the Lenders against any loss, cost or expense (including any loss, cost or expense arising from the liquidation or reemployment of funds or from any fees payable) which may arise, be attributable to or result due to or as a consequence of (a) any failure by the Borrowers to make any payment when due of any amount due hereunder in connection with an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, (b) any failure of the Borrowers to borrow or continue an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan or convert to an RFR Loan or a Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date specified therefor in a Notice of Borrowing or Notice of Conversion/Continuation, (c) any failure of the Borrowers to prepay any RFR Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date specified therefor in any Notice of Prepayment, (d) any payment, prepayment or conversion of any Daily Simple RFR Loan on a date other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default) or SOFR Rate Loan or Eurocurrency Rate Loan on a date other than the last day of the Interest Period therefor (including as a result of an Event of Default) or (e) the assignment of any Daily Simple RFR Loan other than on the Interest Payment Date therefor or any Eurocurrency Rate Loan or SOFR Rate Loan other than on the last day of the Interest Period applicable thereto. In the case of a Eurocurrency Rate Loan, the amount of such loss or expense shall be determined, in the applicable Lender’s sole discretion, based upon the assumption that such Lender funded its Commitment Percentage of the Eurocurrency Rate Loans in the London or other applicable offshore interbank market for such Currency, whether or not such Eurocurrency Rate Loan was in fact so funded, and using any reasonable attribution or averaging methods which such Lender deems appropriate and practical. A certificate of such Lender setting forth the basis for determining such amount or amounts necessary to compensate such Lender shall be forwarded to the Borrowers through the Administrative Agent and shall be conclusively presumed to be correct save for manifest error.

(v)Increased Costs. Without limiting the provisions of Section 12.8 of this Agreement, if, on or after the date hereof, the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act approved by the federal Government on June 30, 2010, Basel III adopted by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, or the adoption of any amendment thereto or any other applicable law, rule or regulation or guideline (whether or not having the force of law), or any change therein, or any change in the interpretation or administration thereof by any Government, central bank or comparable agency charged with the interpretation or administration thereof, or compliance by the Administrative Agent or any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) of any such authority, central bank or comparable agency shall:

(A)impose, modify or deem applicable any reserve (including pursuant to regulations issued from time to time by the FRB for determining the maximum reserve requirement (including any emergency, special, supplemental or other marginal reserve requirement) with respect to eurocurrency funding (currently referred to as “Eurocurrency liabilities” in Regulation D of the FRB, as amended and in effect from time to time)), special deposit, compulsory loan, insurance charge or similar requirement against assets of, deposits with or for the account of, or advances, loans or other credit extended or participated in by, any Lender (except any reserve requirement reflected in the Adjusted Eurocurrency Rate) or any Issuing Lender;

(B)subject any Lender or LC Issuer to any taxes (except for the introduction of, or change in the rate of, tax on the overall net income of the Administrative Agent or any Lender (as applicable) or franchise taxes, imposed by the jurisdiction (or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof) under the laws of which the Administrative Agent or such Lender is organized or in which the Administrative Agent’s or such ▇▇▇▇▇▇’s principal executive office is located) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; or

(C)impose on any Lender or any LC Issuer or (with respect to Eurocurrency Rate Loans) the London or other applicable offshore interbank market any other condition, cost or expense (other than Taxes) affecting this Agreement or Loans made by such Lender or any Letter of Credit or participation therein;

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to the Administrative Agent or such Lender of making or maintaining any Loan, or to reduce the amount of any sum received or receivable by the Administrative Agent or such Lender under this Agreement with respect thereto, by an amount deemed by the Administrative Agent to be material, then, within fifteen (15) days after demand by the Administrative Agent, the Borrowers shall pay to the Administrative Agent, for its own account or for the account of such Lender (as the case may be), such additional amount or amounts as will compensate the Administrative Agent or such Lender for such increased cost or reduction.

(vi)Certain Required Information. If a Request for Advance and Certification or Interest Election Form and Certification fails to specify an Applicable Interest Rate and/or an Interest Period, or if, after having selected an Applicable Interest Rate and/or an Interest Period, the Borrowers fail or are otherwise not entitled under the provisions of this Agreement to elect or continue any such selection (as applicable), the Borrowers shall be deemed to have selected a Base Rate based interest rate as the Applicable Interest Rate until such time as the Borrowers are entitled to and have selected a different Applicable Interest Rate and specified Interest Period in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Lenders shall not be obligated to act with respect to the provisions of this Exhibit unless the Administrative Agent shall have received a Request for Advance and Certification or Interest Election Form and Certification, as applicable, from the Borrowers specifying the following information:

(A) the amount of the advance subject to the Applicable Interest Rate election;

(B) the length of the Interest Period; and

Each Request for Advance and Certification or Interest Election Form and Certification, as applicable, shall be made by the Borrowers in accordance with the provisions of this Exhibit, the Notes and Section 1.4 of the Loan Agreement.

(vii)Alternative Currency Loans. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, (a) Alternative Currency Loans denominated in (x) Euros shall at all times constitute Eurocurrency Rate Loans and (y) Sterling shall at all times constitute Daily Simple RFR Loans and (b) during the existence of an Event of Default, the Required Lenders may demand that any or all of the then outstanding Alternative Currency Loans be prepaid, or redenominated into Dollars in the amount of the Dollar Equivalent thereof, on the last day of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto.

Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined in this Exhibit 3 shall have the meanings attributed to such terms in the Loan Agreement.
