For the avoidance of doubt, the termination of this Agreement shall not relieve any Party from liability for its breach or non-performance of its obligations hereunder prior to the Termination Date with respect to such Party.

Section 7.TRANSFER OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

(a)Each Consenting Holder shall not (i) sell, transfer, assign, hypothecate, pledge, grant a participation interest in, or otherwise dispose of, directly or indirectly (including through derivatives, options, swaps, pledges, forward sales or other transactions), its right, title, or interest with respect to any of such Consenting Holder’s Existing Term Loans, in whole or in part, or (ii) deposit any of such Consenting Holder’s Existing Term Loans into a voting trust, or grant any proxies, or enter into a voting agreement with respect to any such Existing Term Loans (the actions described in clauses (i) and (ii) of this Section 7(a) are collectively referred to herein as a “Transfer” and the Consenting Holder making such Transfer is referred to herein as the “Transferor”), unless such Transfer is (a) to another Consenting Holder or any other entity that first agrees, in writing, to be bound by the terms of this Agreement by executing and delivering to the Company Group and counsel to the Consenting Holders a Transferee Joinder substantially in the form attached as Exhibit G hereof (the “Transferee Joinder”) prior to the effectiveness of the relevant Transfer and (b) with respect to a Transferor that is a Participating Tranche B-2 Term Loan Lender, (A) the Transferee does not assume B-2 Exchange Commitments in excess of the Existing Tranche B-2 Term Loans being transferred; and (B) after giving effect to the Transfer (including the assignment of B-2 Exchange Commitments in connection therewith) the Transferor’s holdings of Existing Tranche B-2 Term Loans equals or exceeds the B-2 Exchange Commitments of the Transferor. With respect to Existing Term Loans held by the relevant transferee upon the consummation of a Transfer in accordance herewith, such transferee shall be deemed to make all of the representations, warranties, and covenants of a Consenting Holder, as applicable, as set forth in this Agreement, and shall be deemed to be a Party and a Consenting Holder for all purposes under this Agreement. Upon compliance with the foregoing, the Transferor shall be deemed to relinquish its rights (with respect to any such Existing Term Loans that are the subject of a Transfer) under this Agreement and shall be released from its obligations (with respect to any such Existing Term Loans that are the subject of a Transfer) hereunder. Any Transfer made in violation of this Section 7 shall be deemed null and void ab initio and of no force or effect.

(b)Except as set forth in Section 7(a) hereof, nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as precluding any Consenting Holder or any of its affiliates from acquiring additional Existing Term Loans; provided that any such additional Existing Term Loans (other than from any affiliate of any such Consenting Holder that maintains or establishes an information-blocking device or “ethical wall” between it and such Consenting Holder) shall automatically be subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

(c)Notwithstanding Section 7(a) herein, (i) an entity that is acting in its capacity as a Qualified Market Maker shall not be required to be or to become a Consenting Holder in order to effect any transfer (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation, or otherwise) of any Existing Term Loans by a Consenting Holder to a transferee; provided, however, that such Transfer by a Consenting Holder to a transferee shall be in all other respects in accordance with and subject to Section 7(a) herein; provided, further, that the foregoing exception will only be available in transactions where the Qualified Market Maker is not the ultimate beneficial owner (within the meaning of Rule 13d-3 under the Securities Act) of such Existing Term Loans as of the date that is ten Business Days after its acquisition of such Existing Term Loans (in the event such Qualified Market Maker is the ultimate beneficial owner of such Existing Term Loans as of such date, it shall execute a Transferee Joinder in accordance with Section 7(a)); and (ii) to the extent that a Consenting Holder, acting in its capacity as a Qualified Market Maker, acquires

any Existing Term Loans from a holder of such claim or interest that is not a Consenting Holder, such Consenting Holder may Transfer (by purchase, sale, assignment, participation, or otherwise) such Existing Term Loans without the requirement that the transferee be or become a Consenting Holder in accordance with this Section 7.

(d)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 7, the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section 7 shall not apply to the grant of any liens or encumbrances on any claims and interests in favor of a bank or broker-dealer holding custody of such claims and interests in the ordinary course of business and which lien or encumbrance is released upon the Transfer of such claims and interests.

Section 8.OWNERSHIP OF CLAIMS AND INTERESTS

Each of the Consenting Holders represents and warrants (severally and not jointly) that:

(a)it either (A) is the sole beneficial owner of the principal amount of Existing Term Loans indicated for such Consenting Holder on its signature page hereto or (B) has sole investment or voting discretion with respect to the principal amount of the Existing Term Loans indicated for such Consenting Holder on its signature page hereto, and has the power and authority to bind the beneficial owner of such Existing Term Loans to the terms of this Agreement and the Definitive Documents (including by way of arrangement whereby the lender of record has sub-participated or otherwise sub-contracted its rights in respect of such Existing Term Loans or pursuant to a binding agreement to purchase such Existing Term Loans on standard trade terms);

(b)each nominee, investment or fund manager, or advisor or sub-advisor acting on behalf of the beneficial holders of its Existing Term Loans represents and warrants to the Company Group and the other Consenting Holders that it has the legal authority to so act and to bind the applicable beneficial holders;

(c)other than pursuant to this Agreement, the Existing Term Loans held by it are free and clear of any equity, option, proxy, voting restriction, right of first refusal, or other limitation on disposition of any kind that might adversely affect in any way such Consenting Holder’s performance of its obligations contained in this Agreement at the time such obligations are required to be performed; and

(d)other than the Existing Term Loans indicated on its respective signature page hereto, such Consenting Holder does not, with knowledge having made reasonable inquiry, (A) directly or indirectly own any other Existing Term Loans or (B) directly or indirectly have investment or voting discretion with respect to any other Existing Term Loans.

(e)For the avoidance of doubt, where a Consenting Holder enters into or joins this Agreement through an identified business unit(s) and/or trading desk(s) in respect of Existing Term Loans (as specified in the signature page to this Agreement or a Joinder Agreement), the terms of this Agreement shall apply only to that identified business unit(s) and/or trading desk(s) and not any other business unit(s) and/or trading desk(s) within the legal entity which has not signed or acceded to this Agreement (in accordance with the terms of this Agreement) separately in respect of any Existing Term Loans or other instrument which it legally of beneficially owns and, therefore, that Consenting Holder shall not be required to procure compliance with this Agreement on behalf of such other business unit(s) and/or trading desk(s) within that legal entity.

Section 9.REPRESENTATIONS

(a)Each Party (severally and not jointly) represents to each other Party that, as of the date of this Agreement:

(i)such Party is duly organized, validly existing, and in good standing (where such concept is recognized) under the laws of the jurisdiction of its organization, and has all requisite corporate, partnership, or limited liability company power and authority to enter into this Agreement and to carry out the Transaction contemplated herein, and to perform its respective obligations under this Agreement;

(ii)the execution, delivery, and performance of this Agreement by such Party does not and shall not (i) violate any provision of law, rule, or regulation applicable to it or any of its subsidiaries or its organizational documents or those of any of its subsidiaries, or (ii) conflict with, result in a breach of, or constitute (with due notice or lapse of time or both) a default under its organizational documents or any material contractual obligations to which it or any of its subsidiaries is a party; and

(iii)this Agreement is the legally valid and binding obligation of such Party, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms.

(b)Each member of the Company Group (severally and not jointly) represents to each Consenting Holder that, as of the date of this Agreement, other than as disclosed on Schedule A, there are no agreements to split, combine, or reclassify any

shares of capital stock of the Company or declare, set aside, or pay any dividend or any other distribution (whether in cash, stock, or property or any combination thereof) in respect of the capital stock of the Company, or redeem, repurchase, or otherwise acquire or offer to redeem, repurchase, or otherwise acquire any capital stock of the Company;

Section 10.ENTIRE AGREEMENT; PRIOR NEGOTIATIONS

This Agreement, including all of the exhibits attached hereto, constitutes the entire agreement of the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement as of the date hereof, and supersedes all other prior negotiations, agreements, representations, warranties, term sheets, proposals, and understandings, whether written, oral, or implied, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter of this Agreement; provided, however, that any Confidentiality Agreement or non-disclosure agreement executed by any Party shall survive this Agreement and shall continue in full force and effect, subject to the terms thereof, irrespective of the terms hereof.

Section 11.THE COMPANY GROUP’S FIDUCIARY DUTIES

(a)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) the Company and each of its subsidiaries, and, as applicable, each respective board of directors or similar governing body thereof shall be permitted to take (or permitted to refrain from taking) any action with respect to the Transaction to the extent such board of directors or similar governing body determines, in good faith based on the advice of counsel, that taking such action, or refraining from taking such action, as applicable, is reasonably required to comply with applicable law, including pursuant to its fiduciary duties, and may take such action or refrain from taking such action without incurring any liability to any other Party hereto; and (ii) to the extent that such fiduciary obligations require the Company or any of its subsidiaries or its board of directors or similar governing body to terminate such entity’s obligations under this Agreement, the Company may terminate this Agreement without liability. For the avoidance of doubt, each Consenting Holder reserves its rights to challenge the good faith of any such determination and each Consenting Holder shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon such determination by a Company Group entity.

(b)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, but subject to the terms of Section 11(a) of this Agreement, each Company Group entity and its directors, officers, employees, investment bankers, attorneys, accountants, consultants, and other advisors or representatives shall have the right to: (i) consider, respond to, and facilitate access to information in response to unsolicited Competing Transaction Proposals; (ii) provide access to non-public information concerning any Company Group entity to any entity that (A) provides an unsolicited Competing Transaction Proposal, (B) executes and delivers a confidentiality agreement (which confidentiality agreement shall permit the Company to share any Competing Transaction Proposals, the status of any discussions, and the identity of any counterparty with the Consenting Holders), and (C) requests such information; (iii) maintain or continue existing discussions with respect to, or otherwise cooperate with, any inquiries or any proposals regarding an unsolicited Competing Transaction Proposal; and (iv) enter into or continue discussions or negotiations with holders of any Claims against or interests in the Company Group (including any Consenting Holder), any other party in interest, or any other entity regarding the Transactions or unsolicited Competing Transaction Proposals; provided, that the Company Group shall (x) if any Company Group entity receives a Competing Transaction Proposal, provide copies of any such written Competing Transaction Proposal or a summary of any such oral Competing Transaction Proposal received by the Company Group to the Ad Hoc Group Advisors no later than one (1) Business Day following receipt thereof by any of the Company Group, (y) as reasonably requested by the Ad Hoc Group Advisors, provide updates on the status of discussions regarding any Competing Transaction Proposal (whether or not such Competing Transaction Proposal is a Superior Proposal), and (z) if a Company Group entity or the board of directors, board of managers, or similar governing body of a Company Group entity determines that a Competing Transaction Proposal is a Superior Proposal, notify the Ad Hoc Group Advisors no later than 24 hours following such determination.

Section 12.REPRESENTATION BY COUNSEL

Each Party hereto acknowledges that it has been represented by counsel (or had the opportunity to be represented by counsel and waived its right to do so) in connection with this Agreement and the Transaction contemplated by this Agreement. Accordingly, any rule of law or any legal decision that would provide any Party hereto with a defense to the enforcement of the terms of this Agreement against such Party based upon the lack of legal counsel shall have no application and is expressly waived. The provisions of this Agreement shall be interpreted in a reasonable manner to effectuate the intent of the Parties hereto. None of the Parties hereto shall have any term or provision of this Agreement construed against such Party solely by reason of such Party having drafted the same.

Section 13.EFFECTIVENESS

The Company acknowledges that the Transaction Expenses of the Ad Hoc Group Advisors shall be payable from the inception of such advisors’ representation, notwithstanding any later “start date” set forth in any such advisor’s Fee Letter.

Following the Effective Date, this Agreement will become effective and binding with respect to any Subsequent Consenting Holder upon delivery to the Company Group of a duly and validly executed Joinder Agreement; provided that signature pages executed by Consenting Holders will be delivered to (x) other Consenting Holders in a redacted form that removes such Consenting Holders holdings of the Existing Term Loans and (y) the Company Group and its advisors in an unredacted form.

The words “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” “delivery” and words of like import in or relating to this Agreement or any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, deliveries 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, physical delivery thereof or the use of a paper-based recordkeeping system, as the case may be, and the parties hereto consent to conduct the transactions contemplated hereunder by electronic means.

None of the Consenting Holders shall have any fiduciary duty or other duties or responsibilities in any kind or form to each other, the Company Group or any of the Company Group’s other lenders, noteholders or stakeholders as a result of this Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby.

This Agreement is intended to bind and inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective permitted successors, assigns, heirs, executors, estates, administrators, and representatives.

Each of (i) Barclays Bank PLC (in its capacity as fronting lender, the “Fronting Lender” or the “Funding Commitment Party”) and (ii) the institutions identified on Schedule 2 hereto (each, a “New Tranche B-2 Creditor” and, together with the Funding Commitment Party, the “Commitment and Credit Parties”) understands that, in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in the Transaction Support Agreement, the Company intends to consummate the transactions (the “Transactions”) described on Exhibit A to the Transaction Support Agreement including, among other things, incurring New Tranche B-2 Term Loans in an aggregate amount not to exceed $547,156,441.32 to refinance the Existing Tranche B-2 Term Loans and a portion of the Existing Tranche B-3 Term Loans on the terms and conditions set forth in the New Term Loan Term Sheet attached to the Transaction Support Agreement as Exhibit B thereto.

1. The Commitments.

The Fronting Lender has agreed to (i) fund up to 100% of the principal amount of the New Tranche B-2 Term Loans set forth on Schedule 1 hereto as adjusted pursuant to the terms set forth in this Commitment and Participation Letter (the commitment listed thereto, the “New Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment”) on, and subject to the occurrence of, the Closing Date; and (ii) execute this Commitment and Participation Letter as the Funding Commitment Party in its capacity as the fronting lender. Each New Tranche B-2 Creditor has offered to acquire by assignment, and the Funding Commitment Party may assign, the Funding Commitment Party’s rights and obligations under the New Credit Agreement to the New Tranche B-2 Creditors in an amount not to exceed the amount set forth beside such New Tranche B-2 Creditors’ name on Schedule 2, pursuant to terms and conditions customary for fronting arrangements and otherwise to be agreed among such New Tranche B-2 Creditor and the Funding Commitment Party. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that, (i) as set forth in the Transaction Term Sheet, the actual funding of New Tranche B-2 Term Loans pursuant to this Commitment and Participation Letter shall be the Backstop Funding Amount (as defined in the Transaction Term Sheet), which, based on the results of the Credit Agreement Exchange Offer and Amendment, may in the aggregate be less than the principal amount of the New Tranche B-2 Term Loans set forth on Schedule 1 and (ii) the actual allocation of the Backstop Funding Amount as among the New Tranche B-2 Creditors shall be made in the sole discretion of the Ad Hoc Group Advisors (but in consultation with you and the Funding Commitment Party) following the effective date of this Commitment and Participation Letter and prior to the Closing Date. For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall (a) the aggregate amount of the New Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment exceed the amount set forth on Schedule 1 hereto as of the effective date of this Commitment and Participation Letter without the consent of the Funding Commitment Party and the applicable New Tranche B-2 Creditors and (b) in no event shall the aggregate amount to be assigned by the Funding Commitment Party to any New Tranche B-2 Creditors and its Related Funds (as defined below) be greater than the New Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment of such New Tranche B-2 Creditor and its Related Funds as set forth in Schedule

In addition, Schedule 2 may be amended from time to time in the sole discretion of the Ad Hoc Group Advisors (but in consultation with you and the Funding Commitment Party) to reallocate any amounts among any New Tranche B-2 Creditors and

Form of Backstop Commitment Letter

any of its affiliates or related funds, funds under common management, managed accounts or other approved funds (such persons, “Related Funds”) so long as the aggregate amount to be assigned by the Funding Commitment Party to such New Tranche B-2 Creditors and their Related Funds does not change from the New Tranche B-2 Term Loan Commitment amount as set forth in Schedule 1 to this Commitment and Participation Letter (as adjusted pursuant to this Commitment and Participation Letter).

All allocations of the Backstop Funding Amount by the Ad Hoc Advisors shall be final absent manifest error. In addition, all or a portion of the Funding Commitment Party’s commitment may be satisfied by any of its Related Funds.

2. Backstop Premium.

As consideration for the New Tranche B-2 Creditors’ offer to acquire the New Tranche B-2 Term Loans by assignment from the Funding Commitment Party and the agreement by such New Tranche B-2 Creditor to exchange (or refinance via cashless settlement) its Existing Tranche B-2 Term Loans for New Tranche B-2 Term Loans in accordance with the Transaction Support Agreement, you agree to pay (or cause to be paid) to the New Tranche B-2 Creditors (or their respective designees), a backstop premium (the “Backstop Premium”) in an aggregate amount equal to 3.30% of $336,213,312.50 (as set forth on Schedule 2 attached hereto), which Backstop Premium shall be fully earned on the date hereof and due and payable on the earlier of (x) the Closing Date and (y) termination of the Transaction Support Agreement by (i) the Company in accordance with Sections 6(e)(ii), 6(e)(iii), or 11(a) thereto or (ii) the Consenting Holders as a result of a material breach of the Transaction Support Agreement by the Company Group (the “Backstop Premium Payment Date”); provided solely with respect to New Tranche B-2 Creditors that are the Steerco (as defined in the Transaction Support Agreement), such Backstop Premium shall be an amount equal to 3.65% of the New Tranche B-2 Term Loan allocation as set forth on Schedule 2 as of the date hereof. The Backstop Premium shall be payable in cash and allocated among each New Tranche B-2 Creditor on the Backstop Premium Payment Date in accordance with Schedule 2.

You agree that, once paid, the Backstop Premium or any part thereof payable hereunder shall not be refundable or subject to recharacterization, setoff or disgorgement under any circumstances, and shall be paid free and clear of any withholding or deduction for applicable taxes unless you are required by law to deduct or withhold such taxes, in which case such payment will be grossed up by you; provided, however, that no such gross up payments shall be made on behalf of (i) any taxes imposed on or measured by net income (however denominated), franchise taxes, and branch profits taxes, in each case imposed by reason of any present or former connection between a New Tranche B-2 Creditor (or any of its affiliates or designees) and the applicable taxing jurisdiction or any political subdivision or taxing authority thereof or therein other than a connection arising from the execution of this Commitment and Participation Letter or the receipt of payments or the enforcement of rights hereunder, or (ii) any taxes imposed as a result of a failure of a New Tranche B-2 Creditor (or any of its affiliates or designees) to provide any form, certificate, document or other information (to the extent such person is legally eligible to do so) reasonably requested by you to the extent providing such form, certificate, document or information would have reduced or eliminated such taxes. The Backstop Premium shall be in addition to reimbursement of our out-of-pocket expenses as agreed in this Commitment and Participation Letter. All amounts payable in cash under this Commitment and Participation Letter shall be made in United States dollars and, in any case, shall not be subject to counterclaim or set-off for, or be otherwise affected by, any claim or dispute relating to any other matter. You agree that any New Tranche B-2 Creditor may, in its sole discretion, share or re-allocate all or a portion of any of the Backstop Premium or any other fees contained in the New Credit Agreement with any of its respective Related Funds. The provisions for the Backstop Premium, the expense reimbursement and the indemnification obligations herein are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Commitment and Participation Letter and without these provisions, the Commitment and Credit Parties would not have entered into this Commitment and Participation Letter and any such expense reimbursements and indemnification obligations shall survive the termination of this Commitment and Participation Letter and the consummation of the Transactions.

You and the New Tranche B-2 Creditors each agree that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the Backstop Premium shall be treated as “put option premium” (the “Intended Tax Treatment”). You and the New Tranche B-2 Creditors each shall prepare its respective U.S. federal income tax returns in a manner consistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, and none of such parties to this Commitment and Participation Letter shall take any position or action with respect to U.S. taxes (whether in audits, tax returns or otherwise) inconsistent with the Intended Tax Treatment, except as otherwise required by a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended from time to time. You and the New Tranche B-2 Creditors agree that, as of the date hereof, no deduction or withholding of tax is required by law with respect to the payment of the Backstop Premium under this Commitment and Participation Letter.
