Each resulting Borrowing of Continued Loans shall constitute a new “Borrowing” under the Amended Credit Agreement and be subject to the same Interest Period applicable to the Borrowing of the Term Loans to which it relates, which Interest Period shall continue in effect until such Interest Period expires and a new Type of Borrowing is selected in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03 of the Amended Credit Agreement.

(c) On the First Refinancing Amendment Effective Date, (i) each Non-Continuing Lender shall have its Term B Loans prepaid in cash in full, and the Borrowers shall pay in cash to each Non-Continuing Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on, premiums and fees, and any breakage loss or expenses due under Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement, in each case related to, such Non-Continuing Lender’s Term B Loans to, but not including, the First Refinancing Amendment Effective Date; and (ii) each Continuing Term Lender with Non-Allocated Existing Term Loans shall have its Non-Allocated Existing Term Loans prepaid in cash in full, and the Borrowers shall pay in cash to each such Continuing Term Lender all accrued and unpaid interest on, premiums and fees related to, such Continuing Term Lender’s Non-Allocated Existing Term Loans to, but not including, the First Refinancing Amendment Effective Date. Each Continuing Term Lender hereby waives any entitlement to any breakage loss or expenses due under Section 2.14 of the Credit Agreement with respect to the repayment of any Term B Loans it holds as an existing Lender which have been replaced or repaid with the 2023 Term Loans on the First Refinancing Amendment Effective Date.
