(a) All accounting terms not specifically or completely defined herein shall be construed in conformity with, and all financial data (including financial ratios and other financial calculations) required to be submitted pursuant to this Agreement shall be prepared in conformity with, GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as in effect from time to time, applied in a manner consistent with that used in preparing the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2014 and the related audited consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal year ended on such date, audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, except as otherwise specifically prescribed herein.

(b) If at any time any change in GAAP would affect the computation of any financial ratio or other requirement set forth in any Loan Document, and either the Borrower or the Required Lenders shall so request, the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and the Borrower shall negotiate in good faith to amend such ratio or other requirement to preserve the original intent

- 21 -

thereof in light of such change in GAAP (subject to the approval of the Required Lenders); provided that, until so amended, (i) such ratio or requirement shall continue to be computed in accordance with GAAP prior to such change therein and (ii) the Borrower shall provide to the Administrative Agent and the Lenders financial statements and other documents required under this Agreement or as reasonably requested hereunder setting forth a reconciliation between calculations of such ratio or requirement made before and after giving effect to such change in GAAP. Without limiting the foregoing, leases (whether entered into before or after the Closing Date) shall continue to be classified and accounted for in the manner and on a basis consistent with that reflected in the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 for all purposes of this Agreement, notwithstanding any change in GAAP relating thereto, unless the parties hereto shall enter into a mutually acceptable amendment addressing such changes, as provided for above.

1.4 Rates. The Administrative Agent does not warrant, nor accept responsibility, nor shall the Administrative Agent have any liability with respect to the administration, submission or any other matter related to the rates in the definition of “Eurocurrency Rate” or with respect to any comparable or successor rate thereto (it being understood and agreed that the foregoing shall not derogate from the Administrative Agent’s responsibilities in fulfilling its obligations under this Agreement).

1.5 Sterling Currency. All Loans and payments under this Agreement shall be in Sterling.

1.6 Times of Day. Unless otherwise specified, all references herein to times of day shall be references to Eastern time (daylight or standard, as applicable).

1.7 Rounding. Any financial ratios required to be maintained by the Borrower pursuant to this Agreement shall be calculated by dividing the appropriate component by the other component, carrying the result to one place more than the number of places by which such ratio is expressed herein and rounding the result up or down to the nearest number (with a rounding-up if there is no nearest number).

SECTION 2.

AMOUNT AND TERMS OF LOANS

2.1 Loans. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, each Lender severally agrees to make a single loan to the Borrower on the Closing Date in an amount not to exceed such Lender’s Closing Date Commitment. The Borrowing on the Closing Date shall consist of Loans made simultaneously by the Lenders in accordance with their respective Closing Date Commitments. Amounts borrowed under this Section 2.1 and repaid may not be reborrowed.

2.2 Procedure for Borrowing Loans.

(a) The Borrower may borrow Loans on the Closing Date and each applicable Increase Effective Date; provided that the Borrower shall give irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent, which may be given by (A) telephone or (B) a Borrowing Notice, provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of

- 22 -

a Borrowing Notice. Each such Borrowing Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent prior to 11:00 a.m., three (3) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date (or, in the case of the Borrowing Notice delivered in respect of the Closing Date Loans borrowed on the Closing Date, prior to 12:00 p.m., two (2) Business Days prior to the requested Borrowing Date); provided, however, that if the Borrower wishes to request Loans having an Interest Period other than one week or one, two, three or six months in duration as provided in the definition of “Interest Period,” the applicable notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. five (5) Business Days prior to the requested date of such Borrowing, whereupon the Administrative Agent shall give prompt notice to the Lenders of such request and determine whether the requested Interest Period is acceptable to all of them. Not later than 10:00 a.m. four (4) Business Days before the requested date of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent shall notify the Borrower (which notice may be by telephone) whether or not the requested Interest Period has been consented to by all the Lenders. Each Borrowing Notice shall specify (i) the amount to be borrowed, (ii) the requested Borrowing Date, and (iii) the respective lengths of the initial Interest Periods for such Loans. Each Borrowing shall be in an amount equal to £5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of £1,000,000. Upon receipt of any such notice from the Borrower, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. In the case of Closing Date Loans, each Lender will make the amount of its Commitment Percentage of the Borrowing to be made on the Closing Date available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern time. In the case of any Incremental Loans to be made after the Closing Date, each applicable Increasing Lender will make the amount of its applicable Incremental Commitment of the Incremental Loans to be made on the relevant Increase Effective Date available to the Administrative Agent in Same Day Funds for the account of the Borrower at the Administrative Agent’s Office not later than 12:00 p.m. Eastern time. Such Borrowing will then be made available to the Borrower by the Administrative Agent either by (i) crediting the account of the Borrower on the books of Bank of America with the amount of such funds or (ii) wire transfer of such funds, in each case in accordance with instructions provided to (and reasonably acceptable to) the Administrative Agent by the Borrower. The failure of any Lender to make a Loan to be made by it as part of any Borrowing shall not relieve any other Lender of its obligation to make available its share of such Borrowing.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, any Lender may exchange, continue or rollover all of the portion of its Loans in connection with any refinancing, extension, loan modification or similar transaction permitted by the terms of this Agreement, pursuant to a cashless settlement mechanism approved by the Borrower, the Administrative Agent, and such Lender.

(c) Each Lender may make any Loan to the Borrower through any Lending Office, provided that the exercise of this option will not affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay such Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

2.3 Increase of Facility. (a) From and after the Closing Date, upon notice to the Administrative Agent (which shall promptly notify the Lenders), the Borrower may from time to time, request an increase in the Facility; provided that the aggregate amount of the Facility after

- 23 -

giving effect to any increases pursuant to this Section 2.3 shall not exceed the Facility in effect on the date hereof plus £50,000,000.

(b) Each increase in the Facility pursuant to Section 2.3(a) may be provided by the Lenders or Eligible Assignees designated by the Borrower that are willing to provide such increase (together with any existing Lender participating in any such increase, each, an “Increasing Lender”) and to become Lenders pursuant to a joinder agreement substantially in form of Exhibit J (a “Joinder Agreement”), pursuant to which such Increasing Lender shall become a party to this Agreement; provided that any such increases shall be in a minimum amount of £10,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of £1,000,000. Nothing contained herein shall constitute, or otherwise be deemed to be, a commitment on the part of any Lender to participate in any such increase in the Facility.

(c) If the Facility is increased in accordance with this Section 2.3, the Administrative Agent and the Borrower shall determine (i) the effective date (the “Increase Effective Date”), and (ii) the final allocation of such increase and Schedule I attached hereto shall be automatically updated to reflect the same. The Administrative Agent shall promptly notify the Lenders of the final allocation of such increase and the Increase Effective Date.

(d) As a condition precedent to such increase, (i) no Default or Event of Default shall exist and (ii) the Borrower shall (1) deliver to the Administrative Agent (A) a Joinder Agreement executed by the Borrower and the applicable Lender(s), and (B) a certificate dated as of the Increase Effective Date (in sufficient copies for each Lender) signed by a Responsible Officer (x) certifying and attaching the resolutions adopted by the Borrower approving or consenting to such increase, and (y) certifying that, before and after giving effect to such increase no Default or Event of Default exists and (2) pay any fees to the applicable Persons. On the applicable Increase Effective Date, the Facility shall be increased (and the Commitment Percentages adjusted) accordingly and each Increasing Lender shall make Incremental Loans to the Borrower in an amount equal to the Incremental Commitment offered by (or, if applicable, allocated to) such Increasing Lender.

(e) Any increase in the Facility shall be made on the same terms (including, without limitation, interest terms, payment terms and maturity terms), and shall be subject to the same conditions as existing Loans (it being understood that customary arrangement or commitment fees payable to one or more Arrangers or Increasing Lenders, as the case may be, may be different from those paid with respect to the Commitment of the Lenders on or prior to the Closing Date or with respect to any other Increasing Lender in connection with any other increase in the Facility pursuant to this Section 2.3). This Section 2.3 shall supersede any provisions in Section 3.8 or 10.1 to the contrary.

2.4 [Intentionally Omitted].

2.5 Reduction of Commitments.

(a) The aggregate Closing Date Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the Closing Date, such that no additional Loans in respect thereof will be made after such date.

- 24 -

(b) The aggregate Incremental Commitments shall be automatically and permanently reduced to zero on the Increase Effective Date applicable thereto upon the making of such Incremental Loans, such that no additional Loans in respect thereof will be made after such date.

2.6 Repayment of Loans; Evidence of Debt.

(a) The Borrower hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the Administrative Agent for the account of each Lender the then unpaid principal amount of each Loan of such Lender on the Termination Date (or such earlier date on which the Loans become due and payable pursuant to Section 8.1) and in any event shall be in an amount equal to the aggregate principal amount of all Loans outstanding on such date.

(b) Each Lender shall maintain in accordance with its usual practice an account or accounts evidencing indebtedness of the Borrower to such Lender resulting from each Loan of such Lender from time to time, including the amounts of principal and interest payable and paid to such Lender from time to time under this Agreement.

(c) The Administrative Agent shall maintain the Register pursuant to Section 10.6(c), and a subaccount therein for each Lender, in which shall be recorded (i) the amount of each Loan made hereunder and each Interest Period for each Loan, (ii) the amount of any principal or interest due and payable or to become due and payable from the Borrower to each Lender hereunder and (iii) the amount of any sum received by the Administrative Agent hereunder from the Borrower and each Lender’s share thereof.

(d) The entries made in the Register and the accounts of each Lender maintained pursuant to Section 2.6(b) shall, to the extent permitted by applicable law, be prima facie evidence of the existence and amounts of the obligations of the Borrower therein recorded; provided that the failure of any Lender or the Administrative Agent to maintain the Register or any such account, or any error therein, shall not in any manner affect the obligation of the Borrower to repay (with applicable interest) the Loans made to the Borrower by such Lender in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.6, the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and each Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register as a Lender hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement pursuant to the terms of Section 10.6(c).

(e) The Borrower agrees that, upon the request to the Administrative Agent by any Lender, the Borrower will sign and deliver to such Lender a promissory note of the Borrower evidencing the Loans of such Lender, substantially in the form of Exhibit A with appropriate insertions as to date and principal amount (a “Note”).

2.7 Obligations of Lenders Several. The obligations of the Lenders hereunder to make Loans and to make payments pursuant to Section 10.5(c) are several and not joint. The failure of any Lender to make any Loan or to make any payment under Section 10.5(c) on any date required hereunder shall not relieve any other Lender of its corresponding obligation to do so on such date, and no Lender shall be responsible for the failure of any other Lender to so make its Loan or to make its payment under Section 10.5(c).

- 25 -

SECTION 3.

GENERAL PROVISIONS APPLICABLE TO THE LOANS

3.1 Optional Prepayments. The Borrower may, upon notice from the Borrower to the Administrative Agent, at any time or from time to time voluntarily prepay the Loans in whole or in part without premium or penalty; provided that (i) such notice must be in a form reasonably acceptable to the Administrative Agent and be received by the Administrative Agent not later than 11:00 a.m. four (4) Business Days prior to any date of prepayment of Loans and (ii) any prepayment of Loans shall be in a principal amount of £5,000,000 or a whole multiple of £1,000,000 in excess thereof or, if less, the entire principal amount thereof then outstanding. Each such notice shall specify the date and amount of such prepayment and the Interest Period(s) of such Loans. The Administrative Agent will promptly notify each Lender of its receipt of each such notice, and of the amount of such Lender’s Commitment Percentage of such prepayment. The Borrower shall make such prepayment and the payment amount specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified therein (unless such notice expressly conditions such prepayment upon consummation of a refinancing transaction, disposition or other transaction which is contemplated to result in prepayment of the Loans, in which event such notice may be revocable or conditioned upon such consummation). Any prepayment of a Loan shall be accompanied by all accrued interest on the amount prepaid, together with any additional amounts required pursuant to Section 3.12. Subject to Section 3.15, each such prepayment shall be applied to the Loans of the Lenders in accordance with their respective Commitment Percentages.

3.2 [Intentionally Omitted].

3.3 Continuation Options.

(a) Any Loan may be continued upon the expiration of the then current Interest Period with respect thereto by the Borrower giving irrevocable notice to the Administrative Agent (which notice may be given by (i) telephone or (ii) a Continuation Notice, provided that any telephonic notice must be confirmed promptly by delivery to the Administrative Agent of a Continuation Notice), in accordance with the applicable provisions of the term “Interest Period” set forth in Section 1.1, of the length of the next Interest Period to be applicable to such Loan. Each such Continuation Notice must be received by the Administrative Agent not later than three (3) Business Days prior to the requested date of any continuation of Loans. In the case of a failure to timely request a continuation of Loans, such Loans shall be continued with an Interest Period of one month.

(b) Any Continuation Notice continuing Loans shall specify the length of the initial Interest Period or Interest Periods therefor. Upon receipt of any such notice, the Administrative Agent shall promptly notify each Lender thereof. All or any part of outstanding Loans may be continued as provided in this Section 3.3; provided that (x) no Loan may be continued when any Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and the Administrative Agent has or the Required Lenders have determined that such continuation is not appropriate and (y) if the Borrower gives a notice of continuation but fails to specify the applicable Interest Period, then the Borrower shall be deemed to have requested a one-month Interest Period.

- 26 -

3.4 Minimum Amounts and Maximum Number of Tranches. All borrowings and continuations of Loans hereunder and all selections of Interest Periods hereunder shall be in such amounts and be made pursuant to such elections so that, after giving effect thereto, the aggregate principal amount of the Loans comprising each Tranche shall be equal to £5,000,000 or a higher integral multiple of £1,000,000. In no event shall there be more than ten (10) Tranches of Loans outstanding at any time.

3.5 Interest Rates and Payment Dates.

(a) Each Loan shall bear interest for each day during each Interest Period with respect thereto at a rate per annum equal to the Eurocurrency Rate determined for such Interest Period plus the Applicable Margin.

(b) [Intentionally Omitted].

(c) If any amount payable by the Borrower under any Loan Document is not paid when due (after any applicable grace period), whether at stated maturity, by acceleration or otherwise, such amount shall thereafter bear interest at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws. Furthermore, upon the request of the Required Lenders, at any time an Event of Default exists, the Borrower shall pay interest on the Loans at a fluctuating interest rate per annum at all times equal to the Default Rate to the fullest extent permitted by applicable laws.

(d) Interest shall be payable in arrears on each Interest Payment Date; provided that interest accruing pursuant to Section 3.5(c) shall be payable from time to time on demand.

3.6 Computation of Interest and Fees.

(a) All interest and all fees shall be calculated on the basis of a year of 360 days and for the actual number of days elapsed. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of each determination of a Eurocurrency Rate. Any change in the interest rate on a Loan resulting from a change in the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage shall become effective as of the opening of business on the day on which such change becomes effective. The Administrative Agent shall as soon as practicable notify the Borrower and the Lenders of the effective date and the amount of each such change in the Eurocurrency Reserve Percentage.

(b) Each determination of an interest rate by the Administrative Agent pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall be conclusive and binding on the Borrower and the Lenders in the absence of manifest error. The Administrative Agent shall, at the request of the Borrower or any Lender, deliver to the Borrower or such Lender a statement showing the quotations used by the Administrative Agent in determining any interest rate pursuant to Section 3.5(a).

3.7 Inability to Determine Interest Rate. If in connection with any request for a Loan or continuation thereof, (a) the Administrative Agent determines that (i) Sterling deposits are not being offered to banks in the London interbank eurocurrency market for the applicable amount and Interest Period of such Loan, or (ii) adequate and reasonable means do not exist for determining

- 27 -

the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan, or (b) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders determine that for any reason the Eurocurrency Rate for any requested Interest Period with respect to a proposed Loan does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding such Loan (in each case with respect to clause (a) and clause (b) above, “Impacted Loans”), the Administrative Agent will promptly so notify the Borrower and each Lender. Thereafter, the obligation of the Lenders to make or maintain Loans shall be suspended (to the extent of the affected Loans or Interest Periods) until the Administrative Agent upon the instruction of the Required Lenders revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, the Borrower may revoke any pending request for a borrowing of or continuation of Loans (to the extent of the affected Loans or Interest Periods).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in this Section, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the affected Lenders, will negotiate in good faith to establish an alternative interest rate for the Impacted Loans, giving due consideration to the then-prevailing market convention (if any) for determining a rate of interest for loans denominated in Sterling, in which case, such alternative rate of interest shall apply with respect to the Impacted Loans until (1) the Administrative Agent revokes the notice delivered with respect to the Impacted Loans under the first sentence of this Section, (2) the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders notify the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that such alternative interest rate does not adequately and fairly reflect the cost to such Lenders of funding the Impacted Loans, or (3) any Lender determines that any law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for such Lender or its applicable Lending Office to make, maintain or fund Loans whose interest is determined by reference to such alternative rate of interest or to determine or charge interest rates based upon such rate or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to do any of the foregoing and provides the Administrative Agent and the Borrower written notice thereof. If the Administrative Agent has made the determination described in this Section and either of the events described in clause (2) or clause (3) of this Section occur, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, on behalf of the affected Lenders, shall negotiate in good faith to establish a second alternative rate of interest; provided that if the Borrower and the Administrative Agent are unable to agree on an alternative rate of interest or a second alternative rate of interest, the Impacted Loans shall be prepaid at the end of the current Interest Period for such Impacted Loans. Upon any such prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid.

3.8 Pro Rata Treatment and Payments.

(a) Except as provided in Sections 2.3 and 3.8(c), (i) the Borrowing of Closing Date Loans by the Borrower from the Lenders hereunder shall be made pro rata according to the respective Commitment Percentages of the Lenders and (ii) the Borrowing of Incremental Loans by the Borrower from the applicable Increasing Lenders shall be made pro rata according to the respective Incremental Commitments of such Increasing Lenders. Subject to Sections 2.3 and 3.8(c) or otherwise as expressly provided herein, each payment (including each prepayment) by the Borrower on account of principal of and interest on the Loans shall be made pro rata according to the respective outstanding principal amounts of the Loans then held by the Lenders.

- 28 -

(b) All payments (including prepayments) to be made by the Borrower hereunder, whether on account of principal, interest, fees or otherwise, shall be made free and clear of and without condition or deduction for any counterclaim, defense, recoupment or setoff. Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, all payments by the Borrower hereunder shall be made to the Administrative Agent, for the account of the respective Lenders to which such payment is owed, at the Administrative Agent’s Office in Sterling and in Same Day Funds not later than 12:00 noon on the due date thereof (and funds received after that time shall be deemed to have been received on the next succeeding Business Day). The Administrative Agent shall distribute such payments to the Lenders promptly upon receipt (and if such payment is received prior to 12:00 noon on the same day) in like funds as received. If any payment hereunder becomes due and payable on a day other than a Business Day, the due date for such payment shall be extended to the next succeeding Business Day, and, with respect to payments of principal, interest thereon shall be payable at the then applicable rate during such extension and such extension of time shall in such case be included in the computation of payment of interest or fees, as the case may be.

(c) Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from a Lender prior to the proposed date of any Borrowing of Loans that such Lender will not make available to the Administrative Agent such Lender’s share of such Borrowing, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Lender has made such share available on such date in accordance with Section 2.1 and may, in reliance upon such assumption, make available to the Borrower a corresponding amount. In such event, if a Lender has not in fact made its share of the applicable Borrowing available to the Administrative Agent, then the applicable Lender and the Borrower severally agree to pay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand such corresponding amount in Same Day Funds with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is made available to the Borrower to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at (A) in the case of a payment to be made by such Lender, the Lender’s cost of funds as reasonably determined by such Lender, plus any administrative, processing or similar fees customarily charged by the Administrative Agent in connection with the foregoing, and (B) in the case of a payment to be made by the Borrower, the interest rate applicable to Loans. If such Borrower and such Lender shall pay such interest to the Administrative Agent for the same or an overlapping period, the Administrative Agent shall promptly remit to the Borrower the amount of such interest paid by the Borrower for such period. If such Lender pays its share of the applicable Borrowing to the Administrative Agent, then the amount so paid shall constitute such Lender’s Loan included in such Borrowing. Any payment by the Borrower shall be without prejudice to any claim the Borrower may have against a Lender that shall have failed to make such payment to the Administrative Agent. Unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice from the Borrower prior to the date on which any payment is due to the Administrative Agent for the account of the Lenders hereunder that the Borrower will not make such payment, the Administrative Agent may assume that such Borrower has made such payment on such date in accordance herewith and may, in reliance upon such assumption, distribute to the Lenders the amount due. In such event, if the Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders severally agrees to repay to the Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender in Same Day Funds with

- 29 -

interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to the Administrative Agent, at the Administrative Agent’s cost of funds as reasonably determined by the Administrative Agent. A notice of the Administrative Agent to any Lender or the Borrower with respect to any amount owing under this subsection (c) shall be conclusive, absent manifest error.

(d) The provisions of Section 3.8(a) shall not be construed to apply to any payment made by or on behalf of the Borrower pursuant to and in accordance with the express terms of this Agreement (including the application and reallocation of funds arising from the existence of a Defaulting Lender as set forth in Section 3.15).

3.9 Illegality. If any Lender reasonably determines that any Requirement of Law has made it unlawful, or that any Governmental Authority has asserted that it is unlawful, for any Lender or its applicable Lending Office to perform any of its obligations hereunder or make, maintain or fund or charge interest with respect to any Loan or to determine or charge interest rates based upon the Eurocurrency Rate, or any Governmental Authority has imposed material restrictions on the authority of such Lender to purchase or sell, or to take deposits of, Sterling in the London interbank market, then, on notice thereof by such Lender to the Borrower through the Administrative Agent, any obligation of such Lender to issue, make, maintain, fund or charge interest with respect to any such Loan or to make or continue to make Loans shall be suspended until such Lender notifies the Administrative Agent and the Borrower that the circumstances giving rise to such determination no longer exist. Upon receipt of such notice, (x) the Borrower shall, upon demand from such Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), prepay all Loans of such Lender, either on the last day of the Interest Period therefor, if such Lender may lawfully continue to maintain such Loans to such day, or immediately, if such Lender may not lawfully continue to maintain such Loans. Upon any such prepayment, the Borrower shall also pay accrued interest on the amount so prepaid, together with such amounts, if any, as may be required pursuant to Section 3.12.

3.10 Requirements of Law.

(a) If the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by any Lender with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof:

(i) shall subject any Recipient to any Taxes (other than (A) Indemnified Taxes, (B) Taxes described in clauses (b) through (d) of the definition of “Excluded Taxes” and (C) Connection Income Taxes) on its loans, loan principal, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto;

(ii) shall impose, modify, or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan, or similar requirement against assets of or held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, loans or other credit extended by or participated in, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of such Lender; or

(iii) shall impose on such Lender any other condition;

- 30 -

and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to such Lender, by an amount which such Lender in good ▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇ to be material, of agreeing to make or maintain, or of making, continuing or maintaining, any Loan the interest on which is determined by reference to the Eurocurrency Rate or to reduce any amount receivable hereunder in respect thereof, then, in any such case, the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days after receipt of a certificate in accordance with Section 3.10(c)) pay such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will compensate such Lender for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable.

(b) If any Lender shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law regarding capital adequacy or liquidity or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by such Lender or any corporation controlling such Lender with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy or liquidity (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on such Lender’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which such Lender or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration such Lender’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy and liquidity) by an amount deemed by such Lender in good faith to be material, then the Borrower shall promptly (and in any event within ten (10) days after receipt of a certificate in accordance with Section 3.10(c)), pay to such Lender such additional amount or amounts as will fairly compensate such Lender for such reduction in the return on capital.

(c) If any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.10, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled; provided that no additional amount shall be payable under this Section 3.10 for a period longer than nine (9) months prior to such notice to the Borrower. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section 3.10 submitted by such Lender to the Borrower (with a copy to the Administrative Agent) shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. The agreements in this Section 3.10 shall survive for a period of one year after the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Obligations and all other amounts payable hereunder. In determining whether to make a claim, and calculating the amount of compensation, under this Section 3.10, each Lender shall apply standards that are not inconsistent with those generally applied by such Lender in similar circumstances.

It is understood and agreed that (i) the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Pub.L. 111-203, H.R. 4173), all Requirements of Law relating thereto, all interpretations and applications thereof and any compliance by a Lender with any request or directive relating thereto, and (ii) all rules, guidelines or directives promulgated by the Bank for International Settlements, the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision (or any successor or similar authority) or the United States or foreign regulatory authorities, in each case pursuant to Basel III, shall, for all purposes of this Agreement, be deemed to be adopted subsequent to the Closing Date.

- 31 -

3.11 Taxes.

(a) Payments Free of Taxes; Obligation to Withhold; Payments on Account of Taxes.

(i) Any and all payments by or on account of any obligation of the Borrower under any Loan Document shall be made without deduction or withholding for any Taxes, except as required by applicable laws. If any applicable laws (as determined in the good faith discretion of the Administrative Agent) require the deduction or withholding of any Tax from any such payment by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower, then the Administrative Agent or the Borrower shall be entitled to make such deduction or withholding, upon the basis of the information and documentation to be delivered pursuant to subsection (e) below.

(ii) If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes, including both United States federal backup withholding and withholding taxes, from any payment, then (A) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with the Code, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.11) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(iii) If the Borrower or the Administrative Agent shall be required by any applicable laws other than the Code to withhold or deduct any Taxes from any payment, then (A) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as required by such laws, shall withhold or make such deductions as are determined by it to be required based upon the information and documentation it has received pursuant to subsection (e) below, (B) the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, to the extent required by such laws, shall timely pay the full amount withheld or deducted to the relevant Governmental Authority in accordance with such laws, and (C) to the extent that the withholding or deduction is made on account of Indemnified Taxes, the sum payable by the Borrower shall be increased as necessary so that after any required withholding or the making of all required deductions (including deductions applicable to additional sums payable under this Section 3.11) the applicable Recipient receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such withholding or deduction been made.

(b) Payment of Other Taxes by the Borrower. Without limiting the provisions of subsection (a) above and without duplication of other amounts payable by the Borrower under this Section 3.11, the Borrower shall timely pay to the relevant Governmental

- 32 -

Authority in accordance with applicable law, or at the option of the Administrative Agent timely reimburse it for the payment of, any Other Taxes.

(i) The Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify each Recipient, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for the full amount of any Indemnified Taxes (including Indemnified Taxes imposed or asserted on or attributable to amounts payable under this Section 3.11) payable or paid by such Recipient or required to be withheld or deducted from a payment to such Recipient, whether or not such Indemnified Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to the Borrower by a Lender (with a copy to the Administrative Agent), or by the Administrative Agent on its own behalf or on behalf of a Lender, shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The Borrower shall, and does hereby, indemnify the Administrative Agent, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, for any amount which a Lender for any reason fails to pay indefeasibly to the Administrative Agent as required pursuant to Section 3.11(c)(ii) below. To the extent that the Borrower makes an indemnity payment to the Administrative Agent pursuant to the preceding sentence (a “Back-Up Indemnity Payment”) on account of any obligation of any Lender under clauses (y) and (z) of Section 3.11(c)(ii) below, the Administrative Agent shall (subject to any internal policy limitations and applicable law and to the extent any such action is not adverse to the interests of the Administrative Agent (as determined by the Administrative Agent, in its reasonable discretion)) use reasonable efforts to exercise its set-off rights described in the last sentence of Section 3.11(c)(ii) below to collect the applicable Back-Up Indemnity Payment amount from the applicable Lender (to the extent that (A) such Lender has not already reimbursed the Administrative Agent for such amounts and (B) the Administrative Agent shall have received payment in full of all amounts required under Section 3.11(c)(ii) below with respect to such Lender) and shall pay the amount so collected (and/or received from the applicable Lender) to the Borrower net of any reasonable expenses incurred by the Administrative Agent in its efforts to collect (through set-off or otherwise) such amounts from such Lender. Each Lender authorizes the Administrative Agent to effect such set-off and to make such payment to the Borrower.

(ii) Each Lender shall, and does hereby, severally indemnify, and shall make payment in respect thereof within ten (10) days after demand therefor, (x) the Administrative Agent against any Indemnified Taxes attributable to such Lender (but only to the extent that the Borrower has not already indemnified the Administrative Agent for such Indemnified Taxes and without limiting the obligation of the Borrower to do so), (y) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as applicable, against any Taxes attributable to such Lender’s failure to comply with the provisions of Section 10.6(d) relating to the maintenance of a Participant Register and (z) the Administrative Agent and the Borrower, as applicable, against any Excluded Taxes attributable to such Lender, in each case, that are payable or paid by the Administrative Agent or the Borrower in connection with any Loan Document, and any reasonable expenses arising therefrom or with respect thereto, whether

- 33 -

or not such Taxes were correctly or legally imposed or asserted by the relevant Governmental Authority. A certificate as to the amount of such payment or liability delivered to any Lender by the Administrative Agent shall be conclusive absent manifest error. Each Lender hereby authorizes the Administrative Agent to set off and apply any and all amounts at any time owing to such Lender under this Agreement or any other Loan Document against any amount due to the Administrative Agent under this clause (ii).

(d) Evidence of Payments. Upon request by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be, after any payment of Taxes by the Borrower or by the Administrative Agent to a Governmental Authority as provided in this Section 3.11, the Borrower shall deliver to the Administrative Agent or the Administrative Agent shall deliver to the Borrower, as the case may be, the original or a certified copy of a receipt issued by such Governmental Authority evidencing such payment, a copy of any return required by laws to report such payment or other evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, as the case may be.

(e) Status of Lenders; Tax Documentation.

(i) Any Lender that is entitled to an exemption from or reduction of withholding Tax with respect to payments made under any Loan Document shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent, at the time or times reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, such properly completed and executed documentation reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will permit such payments to be made without withholding or at a reduced rate of withholding. In addition, any Lender, if reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, shall deliver such other documentation prescribed by applicable law or reasonably requested by the Borrower or the Administrative Agent as will enable the Borrower or the Administrative Agent to determine whether or not such Lender is subject to backup withholding or information reporting requirements. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the preceding two sentences, the completion, execution and submission of such documentation (other than such documentation set forth in Section 3.11(e)(ii)(A), (ii)(B) and (ii)(D) below) shall not be required if in the Lender’s reasonable judgment such completion, execution or submission would subject such Lender to any material unreimbursed cost or expense or would materially prejudice the legal or commercial position of such Lender (it being understood that a Lender’s provision of any information that, at the time such information is being provided, is required by any U.S. federal income tax withholding form that such Lender is otherwise required to complete pursuant to this Section 3.11(e), shall not be considered prejudicial to the position of such Lender). For purposes of determining withholding Taxes imposed under FATCA, from and after the Closing Date, the Borrower and the Administrative Agent shall treat (and the Lenders hereby authorize the Administrative Agent to treat) the Loans as not qualifying as a “grandfathered obligation” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1471-2(b)(2)(i).

(ii) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, in the event that the Borrower is a U.S. Person,

- 34 -

(A) any Lender that is a U.S. Person shall deliver to the Borrower and the Administrative Agent on or prior to the date on which such Lender becomes a Lender under this Agreement (and from time to time thereafter upon the reasonable request of the Borrower or the Administrative Agent), executed originals of IRS Form W-9 certifying that such Lender is exempt from U.S. federal backup withholding tax; provided, however, that if the Lender is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes, it shall provide the appropriate withholding form of its owner (together with appropriate supporting documentation);

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

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

(II) executed originals of IRS Form W-8ECI;

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

- 35 -

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

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

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

- 36 -

(iii) Each Lender agrees that if any form or certification it previously delivered pursuant to this Section 3.11 expires or becomes obsolete or inaccurate in any respect, it shall update such form or certification, provide such successor form or promptly notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent in writing of its legal inability to do so.

(f) Treatment of Certain Refunds. Unless required by applicable laws, at no time shall the Administrative Agent have any obligation to file for or otherwise pursue on behalf of a Lender, or have any obligation to pay to any Lender, any refund of Taxes withheld or deducted from funds paid for the account of such Lender. If any Recipient determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that it has received a refund of any Taxes as to which it has been indemnified by the Borrower or with respect to which the Borrower has paid additional amounts pursuant to this Section 3.11, it shall pay to the Borrower an amount equal to such refund (but only to the extent of indemnity payments made, or additional amounts paid, by the Borrower under this Section 3.11 with respect to the Taxes giving rise to such refund), net of all out-of-pocket expenses (including Taxes) incurred by such Recipient, and without interest (other than any interest paid by the relevant Governmental Authority with respect to such refund), provided that the Borrower, upon the request of the Recipient, agrees to repay the amount paid over to the Borrower (plus any penalties, interest or other charges imposed by the relevant Governmental Authority) to the Recipient in the event the Recipient is required to repay such refund to such Governmental Authority. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this subsection, in no event will the applicable Recipient be required to pay any amount to the Borrower pursuant to this subsection the payment of which would place the Recipient in a less favorable net after-Tax position than such Recipient would have been in if the Tax subject to indemnification and giving rise to such refund had not been deducted, withheld or otherwise imposed and the indemnification payments or additional amounts with respect to such Tax had never been paid. This subsection shall not be construed to require any Recipient to make available its tax returns (or any other information relating to its taxes that it deems confidential) to the Borrower or any other Person.

(g) Additional Amounts. If the Administrative Agent or any Lender becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts from the Borrower pursuant to this Section 3.11, it shall promptly notify the Borrower (with, in the case of a Lender, a copy to the Administrative Agent) of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled; provided that additional amounts shall only be payable by the Borrower under this Section 3.11 if the Borrower receives written notice from a Lender or the Administrative Agent within nine (9) months of the Administrative Agent or such Lender first having knowledge of such additional amounts; provided, however, that if the circumstances giving rise to such claim have a retroactive effect, then such nine-month period shall be extended to include the period of such retroactive effect.

(h) Survival. Each party’s obligations under this Section 3.11 shall survive the resignation or replacement of the Administrative Agent or any assignment of rights by, or the replacement of, a Lender. The agreements in this Section 3.11 shall survive for a period

- 37 -

of one (1) year after the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

3.12 Indemnity. The Borrower agrees to indemnify each Lender and to hold each Lender harmless from any loss or expense which such Lender may sustain or incur as a consequence of (a) default by the Borrower in making a Borrowing of or continuation of Loans after the Borrower has given a notice requesting the same in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, (b) default by the Borrower in making any prepayment after the Borrower has given a notice thereof in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or (c) the making of a prepayment of Loans on a day which is not the last day of an Interest Period with respect thereto. Such indemnity shall be limited to an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount of interest which would have accrued on the amount so prepaid, or not so prepaid, borrowed, or continued, for the period from the date of such prepayment or of such failure to prepay, borrow, or continue to the last day of such Interest Period (or, in the case of a failure to borrow or continue, the Interest Period that would have commenced on the date of such failure) in each case at the applicable rate of interest for such Loans provided for herein (excluding the Applicable Margin included therein, if any) over (ii) the amount of interest (as reasonably determined by such Lender) which would have accrued to such Lender on such amount by placing such amount on deposit for a comparable period with leading banks in the interbank eurocurrency market. This covenant shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the Loans and all other amounts payable hereunder.

3.13 Change of Lending Office. Each Lender agrees that if it makes any demand for payment under Section 3.10, or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes, or if any adoption or change of the type described in Section 3.9 shall occur with respect to it, it will use reasonable efforts (consistent with its internal policy of general applicability and legal and regulatory restrictions and so long as such efforts would not be unreasonably disadvantageous to it, as determined in its reasonable sole discretion) to designate a different Lending Office if the making of such a designation would reduce or obviate the need for the Borrower to make payments under Section 3.10 or 3.11, or would eliminate or reduce the effect of any adoption or change described in Section 3.9.

3.14 Replacement of Lenders.

(a) If any Lender (i) makes any demand for payment under Section 3.10 or requires the Borrower to pay any Indemnified Taxes, and, in each case, such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 3.13, (ii) becomes subject to an event described in Section 3.9 and such Lender has declined or is unable to designate a different Lending Office in accordance with Section 3.13, (iii) does not consent to a proposed amendment or supplement to, or waiver of or other modification of, this Agreement that (A) requires the approval of all Lenders (or all affected Lenders) and (B) has been approved by the Required Lenders, (iv) (A) has notified the Borrower and the Administrative Agent that such Lender has made the determination described in clause (3) of the second paragraph of Section 3.7 and (B) the Borrower and Administrative Agent, on behalf of such Lender, have not agreed on an alternative rate of interest (or a second alternative rate of interest) after negotiating in good faith, or (v) is a

- 38 -

Defaulting Lender, then the Borrower may, at its sole expense and effort, upon notice to such Lender and the Administrative Agent, require such Lender to assign and delegate, without recourse (in accordance with and subject to the restrictions contained in, and consents required by, Section 10.6), all of its interests, rights (other than its existing rights to payments pursuant to Sections 3.10 and 3.11) and obligations under this Agreement and the related Loan Documents to an Eligible Assignee that shall assume such obligations (which assignee may be another Lender, if a Lender accepts such assignment), provided that:

(1) the Borrower shall have paid to the Administrative Agent the assignment fee specified in Section 10.6(b)(iv);

(2) such Lender shall have received payment of an amount equal to the outstanding principal of its Loans, accrued interest thereon, accrued fees and all other amounts payable to it hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (including any amounts under Section 3.12) from the assignee (to the extent of such outstanding principal and accrued interest and fees) or the Borrower (in the case of all other amounts);

(3) in the case of any such assignment resulting from a demand for payment under Section 3.10 or 3.11, such assignment will result in a reduction in such compensation or payments thereafter;

(4) the Borrower may not require any Lender to make such assignment pursuant to clause (iii) above unless (I) all other Lenders that did not consent to the relevant amendment, supplement, waiver or modification are concurrently required to assign all of their interests, rights and obligations hereunder and (II) all such applicable Eligible Assignees shall have consented to the relevant amendment, supplement, waiver or modification; and

(5) such assignment does not conflict with applicable laws.

(b) A Lender shall not be required to make any assignment and delegation pursuant to this Section 3.14 if, prior thereto (as a result of a waiver by such Lender or otherwise), the circumstances entitling the Borrower to require such assignment and delegation cease to apply.

3.15 Defaulting Lenders.

(a) Adjustments. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, if any Lender becomes a Defaulting Lender, then, until such time as that Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, to the extent permitted by applicable law:

(i) Waivers and Amendments. Such Defaulting Lender’s right to approve or disapprove any amendment, waiver or consent with respect to this Agreement shall be restricted as set forth in the definition of “Required Lenders” and Section 10.1.

(ii) Defaulting Lender Waterfall. Any payment of principal, interest, fees or other amounts received by the Administrative Agent for the account of such Defaulting

- 39 -

Lender (whether voluntary or mandatory, at maturity, pursuant to Section 8 or otherwise) or received by the Administrative Agent from a Defaulting Lender pursuant to Section 10.7(b) shall 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 hereunder; second, as the Borrower may request (so long as no Default or Event of Default exists), to the funding of any Loan in respect of which such Defaulting Lender has failed to fund its portion thereof as required by this Agreement, as determined by the Administrative Agent; third, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Lenders as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by any Lender against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; fourth, so long as no Default or Event of Default exists, to the payment of any amounts owing to the Borrower as a result of any judgment of a court of competent jurisdiction obtained by the Borrower against such Defaulting Lender as a result of such Defaulting Lender’s breach of its obligations under this Agreement; and fifth, to such Defaulting Lender or as otherwise directed by a court of competent jurisdiction. 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 pursuant to this Section 3.15(a)(ii) shall be deemed paid to and redirected by such Defaulting Lender, and each Lender irrevocably consents hereto.

(b) Defaulting Lender Cure. If the Borrower and the Administrative Agent agree in writing that a Defaulting Lender is no longer a Defaulting Lender, the Administrative Agent will so notify the parties hereto, whereupon as of the effective date specified in such notice and subject to any conditions set forth therein, 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 Borrower while that Lender was a Defaulting Lender; and provided, further, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no change hereunder from Defaulting Lender to Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender’s having been a Defaulting Lender.

SECTION 4.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

4.1 Financial Condition. The Borrower has heretofore furnished to each Lender copies of the audited consolidated balance sheet of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2017 and the related audited consolidated statements of income and of cash flows for the fiscal year ended on such date, audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (the “Financial Statements”). The Financial Statements present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial condition of the Borrower and its consolidated Subsidiaries as at December 31, 2017 and present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated results of their operations and their

4.4 Power; Authorization; Enforceable Obligations. The Borrower has the corporate or other organizational power and authority, and the legal right, to make, deliver and perform the Loan Documents to which it is a party and has taken all necessary corporate or other organizational action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of the Loan Documents to which it is a party. The Borrower has the corporate power and authority, and the legal right to borrow hereunder and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize such borrowings on the terms and conditions of this Agreement and any Notes. No consent or authorization of, filing with, notice to or other act by or in respect of any Governmental Authority or any other Person is required in connection with the borrowings hereunder or with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of any Loan Documents against the Borrower, to which it is a party. This Agreement has been, and each other Loan Document to which the Borrower is a party will be when delivered, duly executed and delivered by the Borrower. This Agreement constitutes, and each other Loan Document when delivered will constitute, a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Borrower, enforceable against the Borrower in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by general equitable principles (whether enforcement is sought by proceedings in equity or at law).

- 41 -

4.5 No Legal Bar. The execution, delivery and performance by the Borrower of each Loan Document, the borrowings hereunder and the use of the proceeds thereof will not violate its certificate of incorporation or by-laws, Requirements of Law or Contractual Obligations applicable to the Borrower or any of its Subsidiaries, except for such violations of Requirements of Law or Contractual Obligations which could not, singly or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect, and will not result in, or require, the creation or imposition of any Lien on any of the properties or revenues of the Borrower pursuant to any such certificate of incorporation, by-laws, Requirement of Law or Contractual Obligation, except pursuant to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents.

4.6 No Material Litigation. No litigation, investigation or proceeding of or before any arbitrator or Governmental Authority is pending or, to the knowledge of the Borrower, threatened by or against the Borrower or any Subsidiary or against any of its or their respective properties or revenues which could reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

4.7 No Default. No Default has occurred and is continuing or would result from the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or any other Loan Document.

4.8 Federal Regulations. (1) “Margin stock” (within the meaning of Regulation U) constitutes less than 25% of the value of those assets of the Borrower and its Subsidiaries which are subject to any limitation on sale or pledge or any similar restriction hereunder. If requested by any Lender or the Administrative Agent, the Borrower will furnish to the Administrative Agent and each Lender a statement to the foregoing effect in conformity with the requirements of FR Form U-1 referred to in Regulation U.

(c) Except as would not give rise to a Material Adverse Effect, (i) no ERISA Event has occurred, and neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate is aware of any fact, event or circumstance that could reasonably be expected to constitute or result in an ERISA Event with respect to any Pension Plan; (ii) the Borrower and each ERISA Affiliate has met all applicable requirements under the Pension Funding Rules in respect of each Pension Plan, and no waiver of the minimum funding standards under the Pension Funding Rules has been applied for or obtained; (iii) as of the most recent valuation date for any Pension

Plan, the funding target attainment percentage (as defined in Section 430(d)(2) of the Code) is 60% or higher and neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate knows of any facts or circumstances that could reasonably be expected to cause the funding target attainment percentage for any such plan to drop below 60% as of the most recent valuation date; (iv) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has incurred any liability to the PBGC other than for the payment of premiums, and there are no premium payments which have become due that are unpaid; (v) neither the Borrower nor any ERISA Affiliate has engaged in a transaction that could be subject to Section 4069 or Section 4212(c) of ERISA; and (vi) no Pension Plan has been terminated by the plan administrator thereof nor by the PBGC, and no event or circumstance has occurred or exists that could reasonably be expected to cause the PBGC to institute proceedings under Title IV of ERISA to terminate any Pension Plan.

(d) The Borrower represents and warrants as of the Closing Date that the Borrower is not and will not be 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 to repay the Loans.

On the date hereof, the Borrower is not an “investment adviser” within the meaning of the Investment Advisers Act. Each Fund which is sponsored by any Subsidiary or other Investment Firm and which is required to be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act is duly registered as such thereunder, except to the extent the failure to be so registered could not reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect.

(b) Each of the Borrower, each Subsidiary and each other Investment Firm is duly registered, licensed or qualified as an investment adviser or broker-dealer in each state of the United States where the conduct of its business requires such registration, licensing or qualification and is in compliance in all material respects with all federal and state laws requiring such registration, licensing or qualification, except to the extent the failure to be so registered, licensed or qualified or to be in such compliance will not have, in the case of federal laws, or could not reasonably be expected to have, in the case of state laws, a Material Adverse Effect.

4.11 Subsidiaries and Other Ownership Interests. The Subsidiaries listed on Schedule 4.11 constitute the only Subsidiaries of the Borrower as at the date hereof. As at the date hereof, (a) the Borrower has, directly or indirectly, an equity or other ownership interest in each Investment Firm and each other Person listed on Schedule 4.11 and (b) other than as set forth on Schedule 4.11, the Borrower has no equity or other ownership interest, directly or indirectly, in any other Person, other than indirect equity or other ownership interests in Funds.

- 43 -

4.12 Use of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Loans may be used by the Borrower solely (a) to pay fees and expenses incurred in connection with the execution and delivery of the Loan Documents, (b) to prepay the Indebtedness of the Borrower under the Existing Credit Agreement, (c) for working capital, capital expenditures and other general corporate purposes, (d) to make Acquisitions and other investments (including acquisitions of additional Capital Stock in Subsidiaries and Affiliates of the Borrower), (e) to purchase, repay or redeem any debt or equity of the Borrower or any Subsidiary so long as such purchase, repayment or redemption is not prohibited by any other provision of this Agreement and (f) to pay fees and expenses to be incurred in connection with the foregoing.

SECTION 5.

CONDITIONS PRECEDENT

THE ADMINISTRATIVE AGENT

Each Lender hereby irrevocably appoints Bank of America to act on its behalf as the Administrative Agent hereunder and under the other Loan Documents and authorizes the Administrative Agent to take such actions on its behalf and to exercise such powers as are delegated to the Administrative Agent by the terms hereof or thereof, together with such actions and powers as are reasonably incidental thereto. The provisions of this Section 9 are solely for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and neither the Borrower nor any Subsidiary shall have rights as a third party beneficiary of any such provision (provided that the Borrower shall have the rights granted to the Borrower pursuant to Section 9.6). It is understood and agreed that the use of the term “agent” herein or in any other Loan Document (or any other similar term) with reference to the Administrative Agent is not intended to connote any fiduciary or other implied (or express) obligations arising under agency doctrine of any applicable law. Instead such term is used as a matter of market custom, and is intended to create or reflect only an administrative relationship between contracting parties.

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

9.3 Exculpatory Provisions. The Administrative Agent shall not have any duties or obligations except those expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, and its duties hereunder shall be administrative in nature. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Administrative Agent:

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

- 56 -

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

(c) shall not, except as expressly set forth herein and in the other Loan Documents, have any duty to disclose, and shall not be liable for the failure to disclose, any information relating to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates that is communicated to or obtained by the Person serving as the Administrative Agent or any of its Affiliates in any capacity.

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

The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for or have any duty to ascertain or inquire into (i) any statement, warranty or representation made in or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, (ii) the contents of any certificate, report or other document delivered hereunder or thereunder or in connection herewith or therewith, (iii) the performance or observance of any covenant, agreement or other term or condition set forth herein or therein or the occurrence of any Default, (iv) the validity, enforceability, effectiveness or genuineness of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any other agreement or document or (v) the satisfaction of any condition set forth in Section 5 or elsewhere herein, other than to confirm receipt of items expressly required to be delivered to the Administrative Agent.

9.4 Reliance by Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall be entitled to rely upon, and shall not incur any liability for relying upon, any notice, request, certificate, consent, statement, instrument, document or other writing (including any electronic message, Internet or intranet website posting or other distribution) believed in good faith by it to be genuine and to have been signed, sent or otherwise authenticated by the proper Person. The Administrative Agent also may rely upon any statement made to it orally or by telephone and believed by it to have been made by the proper Person, and shall not incur any liability for relying thereon. In determining compliance with any condition hereunder to the making of a Loan that by its terms must be fulfilled to the satisfaction of a Lender, the Administrative Agent may presume that such condition is satisfactory

- 57 -

to such Lender unless the Administrative Agent shall have received notice to the contrary from such Lender prior to the making of such Loan. The Administrative Agent may consult with legal counsel (who may be counsel for the Borrower), independent accountants and other experts selected by it, and shall not be liable for any action taken or not taken by it in accordance with the advice of any such counsel, accountants or experts.

9.5 Delegation of Duties. The Administrative Agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers hereunder or under any other Loan Document by or through any one or more sub-agents appointed by the Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent may perform any and all of its duties and exercise its rights and powers by or through their respective Related Parties. The exculpatory provisions of this Section 9 shall apply to any such sub-agent and to the Related Parties of the Administrative Agent and any such sub-agent, and shall apply to their respective activities in connection with the syndication of the credit facilities provided for herein as well as activities as Administrative Agent. The Administrative Agent shall not be responsible for the negligence or misconduct of any sub-agents except to the extent that a court of competent jurisdiction determines in a final and nonappealable judgment that the Administrative Agent acted with gross negligence or willful misconduct in the selection of such sub-agents.

9.6 Resignation of Administrative Agent.

(a) The Administrative Agent may at any time give notice of its resignation to the Lenders and the Borrower. Upon receipt of any such notice of resignation, the Required Lenders shall have the right, with the consent of the Borrower, to appoint a successor, which shall be a “bank” which is a “US person” (each within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.441-1) with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, in each case which office shall assume primary withholding responsibility under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days after the retiring Administrative Agent gives notice of its resignation (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Resignation Effective Date”), then the retiring Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to), on behalf of the Lenders, appoint a successor Administrative Agent meeting the qualifications set forth above; provided that in no event shall any such successor Administrative Agent be a Defaulting Lender at the time of such appointment. Whether or not a successor has been appointed, such resignation shall become effective in accordance with such notice on the Resignation Effective Date.

(b) If the Person serving as Administrative Agent is a Defaulting Lender pursuant to clause (d) of the definition thereof, the Required Lenders may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, by notice in writing to the Borrower and such Person, remove such Person as Administrative Agent and, with the consent of the Borrower, which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, appoint a successor, which shall be a “bank” which is a “US person” (each within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.441-1) with an office in the United States, or an Affiliate of any such bank with an office in the United States, in

- 58 -

each case which office shall assume primary withholding responsibility under Treasury Regulations Section 1.1441-1. If no such successor shall have been so appointed by the Required Lenders and shall have accepted such appointment within thirty (30) days (or such earlier day as shall be agreed by the Required Lenders) (the “Removal Effective Date”), then such removal shall nonetheless become effective in accordance with such notice on the Removal Effective Date.

(c) With effect from the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date (as applicable) (1) the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (except that in the case of any collateral security (if any) held by the Administrative Agent on behalf of the Lenders under any of the Loan Documents, the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall continue to hold such collateral security until such time as a successor Administrative Agent is appointed) and (2) except for indemnity payments or other amounts then owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent, all payments, communications and determinations provided to be made by, to or through the Administrative Agent shall instead be made by or to each Lender directly, until such time, if any, as the Required Lenders appoint a successor Administrative Agent as provided for above. Upon the acceptance of a successor’s appointment as Administrative Agent hereunder, such successor shall succeed to and become vested with all of the rights, powers, privileges and duties of the retiring (or removed) Administrative Agent (other than as provided in Section 3.11(h), and other than any rights to indemnity payments or other amounts owed to the retiring or removed Administrative Agent as of the Resignation Effective Date or the Removal Effective Date, as applicable), and the retiring or removed Administrative Agent shall be discharged from all of its duties and obligations hereunder and under the other Loan Documents (if not already discharged therefrom as provided above). The fees payable by the Borrower to a successor Administrative Agent shall be the same as those payable to its predecessor unless otherwise agreed between the Borrower and such successor. After the retiring or removed Administrative Agent’s resignation or removal hereunder and under the other Loan Documents, the provisions of this Section 9 and Section 10.5 shall continue in effect for the benefit of such retiring or removed Administrative Agent, its sub-agents and their respective Related Parties in respect of any action taken or omitted to be taken by any of them (i) while the retiring or removed Administrative Agent was acting as Administrative Agent and (ii) after such resignation or removal for as long as any of them continues to act in any capacity hereunder or under the Loan Documents, including (A) acting as collateral agent or otherwise holding any collateral security on behalf of the Lenders and (B) in respect of any actions taken in connection with transferring the agency to any successor Administrative Agent.

9.7 Non-Reliance on Administrative Agent and Other Lenders. Each Lender acknowledges that it has, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it has deemed appropriate, made its own credit analysis and decision to enter into this Agreement. Each Lender also acknowledges that it will, independently and without reliance upon the Administrative Agent or any other Lender or any of their Related Parties and based on such documents and information as it shall from time to time deem appropriate, continue to make its own decisions in

- 59 -

taking or not taking action under or based upon this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any related agreement or any document furnished hereunder or thereunder.

9.8 Administrative Agent May File Proofs of Claim. In the case of the pendency of any receivership, insolvency, liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, adjustment, composition or other judicial proceeding relative to the Borrower, the Administrative Agent (irrespective of whether the principal of any Loan shall then be due and payable and whether the Administrative Agent shall have made any demand on the Borrower) shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such proceeding or otherwise:

(a) to file and prove a claim for the whole amount of the principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Loans and all other Obligations that are owing and unpaid and to file such other documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent (including any claim for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Lenders and the Administrative Agent and their respective agents and counsel and all other amounts due the Lenders and the Administrative Agent hereunder) allowed in such judicial proceeding; and

(b) to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute the same;

and any custodian, receiver, assignee, trustee, liquidator, sequestrator or other similar official in any such judicial proceeding is hereby authorized by each Lender to make such payments to the Administrative Agent and, if the Administrative Agent shall consent to the making of such payments directly to the Lenders, to pay to the Administrative Agent any amount due for the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Administrative Agent and its agents and counsel, and any other amount due the Administrative Agent under Section 10.5.

Nothing contained herein shall be deemed to authorize the Administrative Agent to authorize or consent to or accept or adopt on behalf of any Lender any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the obligations of the Borrower hereunder or the rights of any Lender or to authorize the Administrative Agent to vote in respect of the claim of any Lender in any such proceeding.

9.9 Other Agents; Arrangers and Managers. None of the Lenders or other Persons identified on the cover page or signature pages of this Agreement, or elsewhere herein, as an “Arranger,” “co-syndication agent,” “co-documentation agent,” “joint book runner,” or “joint lead arranger” shall have any right, power, obligation, liability, responsibility or duty under this Agreement other than, in the case of a Person that is a Lender, 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.

The Borrower shall indemnify the Administrative Agent, the Lenders and each of their respective Related Parties from all losses, costs, expenses and liabilities resulting from the reliance by such Person on each notice purportedly given by or on behalf of the Borrower. All telephonic notices to and other communications with the Administrative Agent may be recorded by the Administrative Agent, and each of the parties hereto hereby consents to such recording.

10.3 No Waiver; Cumulative Remedies. No failure to exercise and no delay in exercising, on the part of the Administrative Agent or any Lender, any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall operate as a waiver thereof; nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege. The rights, remedies, powers and privileges herein provided, and provided under each of the other Loan Documents, are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights, remedies, powers and privileges provided by law.

10.4 Survival of Representations and Warranties.

(c) Reimbursement by Lenders. To the extent that the Borrower for any reason fails to indefeasibly pay any amount required under subsection (a) or (b) above to be paid by it to the Administrative Agent (or any sub-agent thereof) or any of its Related Parties, but without relieving the Borrower of its obligation to do so, each Lender severally agrees to pay to the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) or such Related Party, as the case may be, such Lender’s Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought) of such unpaid amount (including

- 65 -

any such unpaid amount in respect of a claim asserted by such Lender), such payment to be made severally among them based on such Lenders’ Commitment Percentage (determined as of the time that the applicable unreimbursed expense or indemnity payment is sought), provided that the unreimbursed expense or indemnified loss, claim, damage, liability or related expense, as the case may be, was incurred by or asserted against the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in its capacity as such or against such Related Party acting for the Administrative Agent (or any such sub-agent) in connection with such capacity.

(d) Consequential Damages, Etc. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the Borrower agrees that it will not assert, and hereby waives, and acknowledges that no other Person shall have, any claim against any Indemnitee, on any theory of liability, for special, indirect, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages (as opposed to direct or actual damages) arising out of, in connection with, or as a result of this Agreement, any other Loan Document or any agreement or instrument contemplated hereby, the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, any Loan or the use of the proceeds thereof.

Defaulting Lender or any of its Subsidiaries, or any Person who, upon becoming a Lender hereunder, would constitute any of the foregoing Persons described in this clause (2), or (3) to a natural person.

(vi) Certain Additional Payments. In connection with any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder, no such assignment shall be effective unless and until, in addition to the other conditions thereto set forth herein, the parties to the assignment shall make such additional payments to the Administrative Agent in an aggregate amount sufficient, upon distribution thereof as appropriate (which may be outright payment, purchases by the assignee of participations or subparticipations, or other compensating actions, to each of which the applicable assignee and assignor hereby irrevocably consent), to (x) pay and satisfy in full all payment liabilities then owed by such Defaulting Lender to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder (and interest accrued thereon) and (y) fund its full share of all Loans required to be made hereunder. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any assignment of rights and obligations of any Defaulting Lender hereunder shall become effective under applicable law without compliance with the provisions of this paragraph, then the assignee of such interest shall be deemed to be a Defaulting Lender for all purposes of this Agreement until such compliance occurs.

Subject to acceptance and recording thereof by the Administrative Agent pursuant to subsection (c) of this Section, from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Assumption, the assignee thereunder shall be a party to this Agreement and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Assumption, 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 Assumption, be released from its obligations under this Agreement (and, in the case of an Assignment and Assumption 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 3.10, 3.11, 3.12, and 10.5 with respect to facts and circumstances occurring prior to the effective date of such assignment; provided, that except to the extent otherwise expressly agreed by the affected parties, no assignment by a Defaulting Lender will constitute a waiver or release of any claim of any party hereunder arising from that Lender having been a Defaulting Lender. Upon request, the Borrower (at its 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 subsection 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 Section 10.6(d).

(c) Register. The Administrative Agent, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, shall maintain at the Administrative Agent’s Office a copy of each Assignment and Assumption delivered to it (or the equivalent thereof in electronic form) and a register for the recordation of the names and addresses of the Lenders, and the Commitments of, and principal amounts (and related interest amounts) of the Loans owing to, each Lender pursuant to the terms hereof from time to time (the “Register”). The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in

- 68 -

the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as the owner of a Loan or other obligation hereunder for all purposes of this Agreement. Any assignment of any Loan or other obligation hereunder shall be effective only upon appropriate entries with respect thereto being made in the Register. The Register shall be available for inspection by the Borrower and any Lender, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.

(d) Participations. Any Lender may at any time, without the consent of, or notice to, the Borrower or the Administrative Agent, sell participations to any Person (other than a natural Person, a Defaulting Lender or the Borrower or any of the Borrower’s Affiliates or Subsidiaries) (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 the 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 Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall continue to deal solely and directly with such Lender in connection with such Lender’s rights and obligations under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, each Lender shall be responsible for the indemnity under Section 10.5(c) without regard to the existence of any participation.

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 to approve any amendment, modification or waiver of any provision of this Agreement; provided that such agreement or instrument may provide that such Lender will not, without the consent of the Participant, agree to any amendment, waiver or other modification described in the first proviso to Section 10.1(a) that affects such Participant. The Borrower agrees that each Participant shall be entitled to the benefits of Sections 3.10, 3.11 and 3.12 to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to subsection (b) of this Section (it being understood that the documentation required under Section 3.11(e) shall be delivered to the Lender who sells the participation) to the same extent as if it were a Lender and had acquired its interest by assignment pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section; provided that such Participant (A) agrees to be subject to the provisions of Sections 3.13 and 3.14 as if it were an assignee under paragraph (b) of this Section and (B) shall not be entitled to receive any greater payment under Sections 3.10 or 3.11, with respect to any participation, than the Lender from whom it acquired the applicable participation would have been entitled to receive, except to the extent such entitlement to receive a greater payment both (x) arises pursuant to Section 3.10 and (y) results from a change in Requirements of Law (as determined in accordance with Section 3.10) that occurs after the Participant acquired the applicable participation. Each Lender that sells a participation agrees, at the Borrower's request and expense, to use reasonable efforts to cooperate with the Borrower to effectuate the provisions of Section 3.13 with respect to any Participant. To the extent permitted by law, each Participant also shall be entitled to the benefits of Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender; provided that such Participant agrees to be subject to Section 10.7 as though it were a Lender. Each Lender that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as a non-fiduciary agent of the Borrower, maintain a register on which it enters the name and address of each Participant and the principal amounts (and stated interest) of each Participant’s interest in the Loans or other obligations under the Loan Documents (the “Participant Register”); provided that no Lender shall have any obligation to disclose all or any

- 69 -

portion of the Participant Register (including the identity of any Participant or any information relating to a Participant's interest in any Loans or other obligations under any Loan Document) to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such Loan or other obligation is in registered form under Section 5f.103-1(c) of the United States Treasury Regulations or is otherwise required thereunder. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Lender shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement notwithstanding any notice to the contrary. For the avoidance of doubt, the Administrative Agent (in its capacity as Administrative Agent) shall have no responsibility for maintaining a Participant Register.

(e) Certain Pledges. 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, if any) 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.

10.7 Adjustments; Set-off.

(a) If any Lender (a “benefited Lender”) shall at any time receive any payment of all or part of its Loans, or interest thereon, or receive any collateral in respect thereof (whether voluntarily or involuntarily, by set-off, pursuant to events or proceedings of the nature referred to in Section 8.1(f), or otherwise), in a greater proportion than any such payment to or collateral received by any other Lender, if any, in respect of such other Lender’s Loans, or interest thereon, such benefited Lender shall purchase for cash from the other Lenders a participating interest in such portion of each such other Lender’s Loan, or shall provide such other Lenders with the benefits of any such collateral, or the proceeds thereof, as shall be necessary to cause such benefited Lender to share the excess payment or benefits of such collateral or proceeds ratably with each of the Lenders; provided that if all or any portion of such excess payment or benefits is thereafter recovered from such benefited Lender, such purchase shall be rescinded, and the purchase price and benefits returned, to the extent of such recovery, but without interest.

(b) In addition to any rights and remedies of the Lenders provided by law, each Lender shall have the right, upon the occurrence and continuation of any Event of Default, without prior notice to the Borrower, any such notice being expressly waived by the Borrower to the extent permitted by applicable law, to set-off and appropriate and apply against such amount any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other credits, indebtedness or claims, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by such Lender or any branch or agency thereof to or for the credit or the account of the Borrower, provided that in the event that any Defaulting Lender shall exercise any such right of setoff, (x) all amounts so set off shall be paid over immediately to the Administrative Agent for further application in accordance with the provisions of Section

- 70 -

3.15 and, pending such payment, shall be segregated by such Defaulting Lender from its other funds and deemed held in trust for the benefit of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, and (y) the Defaulting Lender shall provide promptly to the Administrative Agent a statement describing in reasonable detail the Obligations owing to such Defaulting Lender as to which it exercised such right of setoff. Each Lender agrees promptly to notify the Borrower and the Administrative Agent after any such set-off and application made by such Lender; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application.

10.8 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (and by different parties hereto in different counterparts), each of which shall constitute an original, but all of which when taken together shall constitute a single contract. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents, and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers, constitute the entire contract among the parties relating to the subject matter hereof and supersede any and all previous agreements and understandings, oral or written, relating to the subject matter hereof. Except as provided in Section 4.1, this Agreement shall become effective when it shall have been executed by the Administrative Agent and when the Administrative Agent shall have received counterparts hereof that, when taken together, bear the signatures of each of the other parties hereto. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Agreement by facsimile or other electronic imaging means (e.g., “pdf” or “tif”) shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of this Agreement.

10.9 Severability. Any provision of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction.

10.10 Integration. This Agreement, the other Loan Documents and any separate letter agreements with respect to fees payable to the Administrative Agent or the Arrangers represent the agreement of the Borrower, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the subject matter hereof, and there are no promises, undertakings, representations or warranties by the Administrative Agent or any Lender relative to the subject matter hereof not expressly set forth or referred to herein or in the other Loan Documents.

10.11 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE GOVERNED BY, AND CONSTRUED AND INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, THE LAW OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK.

10.12 Submission To Jurisdiction; Waivers. The Borrower hereby irrevocably and unconditionally:

(a) submits for itself and its property in any legal action or proceeding relating to this Agreement and the other Loan Documents to which it is a party, or for recognition and enforcement of any judgment in respect thereof, to the non-exclusive general jurisdiction

- 71 -

of the Courts of the State of New York sitting in New York County, the courts of the United States of America for the Southern District of New York, and appellate courts from any thereof;

(b) consents that any such action or proceeding may be brought in (or removed to) such courts and waives any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the venue of any such action or proceeding in any such court or that such action or proceeding was brought in an inconvenient court and agrees not to plead or claim the same;

(c) agrees that service of process in any such action or proceeding may be effected by mailing a copy thereof by registered or certified mail (or any substantially similar form of mail), postage prepaid, to the Borrower at its address determined pursuant to Section 10.2(a) or at such other address of which the Administrative Agent shall have been notified pursuant thereto;

(d) agrees that nothing herein shall affect the right to effect service of process in any other manner permitted by law or shall limit the right to ▇▇▇ in any other jurisdiction; and

(e) waives, to the maximum extent not prohibited by law, any right it may have to claim or recover in any legal action or proceeding referred to in this Section any special, exemplary, punitive or consequential damages.

10.13 Acknowledgements. The Borrower hereby acknowledges that:

(a) it has been advised by counsel in the negotiation, execution and delivery of this Agreement and the other Loan Documents;

(b) none of the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any Lender has any fiduciary relationship with or duty to the Borrower arising out of or in connection with this Agreement or any other Loan Document, and the relationship between the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, on one hand, and the Borrower, on the other hand, in connection herewith or therewith is solely that of debtor and creditor; and

(c) no joint venture is created hereby or by the other Loan Documents or otherwise exists by virtue of the transactions contemplated hereby among the Lenders or among the Borrower and the Lenders.

Without limiting the foregoing provisions of this Section 10.13, the Borrower acknowledges that (i) it is capable of evaluating and understanding, and understands and accepts, the terms, risks and conditions of the transactions contemplated hereby and by the other Loan Documents; (ii) in connection with the process leading to such transactions, the Arrangers, the Administrative Agent and the Lenders are and have been acting solely as a principal and none is a financial advisor, an agent or a fiduciary for the Borrower or any of its Affiliates; (iii) neither the Administrative Agent, any Arranger nor any Lender has assumed or will assume an advisory, agency or fiduciary responsibility to the Borrower or any of its Affiliates with respect to the transactions contemplated

In furtherance of the foregoing, the Borrower waives and releases, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any claim that it may have against the Administrative Agent, any Arranger or any Lender for any breach or alleged breach of any agency or fiduciary duty.

10.15 Confidentiality. Each of the Administrative Agent and the Lenders agrees to use the Information (as defined below) solely for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated by, or incidental to, this Agreement and for underwriting other credit products (x) proposed to be offered to the Borrower or (y) requested by the Borrower or any Subsidiary and, in each case, agrees to maintain the confidentiality of the Information, except that Information may be disclosed (a) to its Affiliates and to its Related Parties, in each case, solely for the purpose of consummating the transactions contemplated by, or incidental to, this Agreement and for underwriting other credit products (x) proposed to be offered to the Borrower or (y) requested by the Borrower or any Subsidiary (it being understood that prior to any such disclosure each such Person will be informed of the confidential nature of such Information and shall agree to keep such Information confidential), (b) to the extent required or requested by any regulatory authority purporting to have jurisdiction over such Person or its Related Parties (including any self-regulatory authority, such as the National Association of Insurance Commissioners), (c) to the extent required by applicable laws or regulations or by any subpoena or similar legal process, provided that the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as applicable, agrees that it will promptly notify the Borrower unless such notification is prohibited by law, rule or regulation (as reasonably determined by such applicable disclosing party), (d) to any other party hereto, (e) in connection with the exercise of any remedies hereunder or under any other Loan Document or any action or proceeding relating to this Agreement or any other Loan Document or the enforcement of rights hereunder or thereunder, (f) subject to a confidentiality agreement substantially in the form of Exhibit E, to (i) any assignee of or Participant in, or any prospective assignee of or Participant in, any of its rights or obligations

- 73 -

under this Agreement or any Eligible Assignee invited to be a Lender pursuant to Section 2.3 or (ii) any actual or prospective party (or its Related Parties) to any swap, derivative or other transaction under which payments are to be made by reference to the Borrower and its obligations, this Agreement or payments hereunder, (g) on a confidential basis consistent with industry practice to (i) any rating agency in connection with rating the Borrower or its Subsidiaries or the credit facilities provided hereunder or (ii) the CUSIP Service Bureau or any similar agency in connection with the issuance and monitoring of CUSIP numbers or other market identifiers with respect to the credit facilities provided hereunder, (h) with the consent of the Borrower or (i) to the extent such Information (i) becomes publicly available other than as a result of a breach of this Section or (ii) becomes available to the Administrative Agent, any Lender or any of their respective Affiliates on a nonconfidential basis from a source other than the Borrower (so long as such source is not known to the Administrative Agent or such Lender to be bound by confidentiality obligations to the Borrower or its Subsidiaries). The provisions of this Section 10.15 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and continue in full force and effect until the date that is two (2) years from the date of termination of this Agreement.

For purposes of this Section, “Information” means all information received from the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof relating to the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof or their respective businesses, other than any such information that is available to the Administrative Agent or any Lender on a nonconfidential basis prior to disclosure by the Borrower or any Subsidiary thereof, provided that, in the case of information received from the Borrower or any such Subsidiary after the date hereof, such information is clearly identified at the time of delivery as confidential. Any Person required to maintain the confidentiality of Information as provided 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 to its own confidential information, but in any event with no less than a reasonable degree of care.

10.16 Survival of Representations and Warranties. All representations and warranties made hereunder and in any other Loan Document or other document delivered pursuant hereto or thereto or in connection herewith or therewith shall survive the execution and delivery hereof and thereof. Such representations and warranties have been or will be relied upon by the Administrative Agent and each Lender, regardless of any investigation made by the Administrative Agent or any Lender or on their behalf and notwithstanding that the Administrative Agent or any Lender may have had notice or knowledge of any Default at the time of any credit extension, and shall continue in full force and effect as long as any Loan or any other Obligation hereunder shall remain unpaid or unsatisfied.

10.17 USA Patriot Act. Each Lender that is subject to the PATRIOT Act and the Administrative Agent (for itself and not on behalf of any Lender) hereby notifies the Borrower that pursuant to the requirements of the PATRIOT Act, it is required to obtain, verify and record information that identifies the Borrower, which information includes the name and address of the Borrower and other information that will allow such Lender or the Administrative Agent, as applicable, to identify the Borrower in accordance with the PATRIOT Act. The Borrower shall, promptly following a request by the Administrative Agent or any Lender, provide all documentation and other information that the Administrative Agent or such Lender reasonably requests in order

- 74 -

to comply with its ongoing obligations under applicable “know your customer” and anti-money laundering rules and regulations, including the PATRIOT Act.

10.18 Electronic Execution of Assignments and Certain Other Documents. The words “execute,” “execution,” “signed,” “signature,” and words of like import in or related to any document to be signed in connection with this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby (including without limitation Assignment and Assumptions, amendments or other modifications, any Borrowing Notice or Continuation Notice, waivers and consents) shall be deemed to include electronic signatures, the electronic matching of assignment terms and contract formations on electronic platforms approved by the Administrative Agent, 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 Records Act, or any other similar state laws based on the Uniform Electronic Transactions Act; provided that notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary the Administrative Agent is under no obligation to agree to accept electronic signatures in any form or in any format unless expressly agreed to by the Administrative Agent pursuant to procedures approved by it; provided further without limiting the foregoing, upon the request of the Administrative Agent, any electronic signature shall be promptly followed by such manually executed counterpart.

10.19 Judgment Currency. If, for the purposes of obtaining judgment in any court, it is necessary to convert a sum due hereunder or any other Loan Document in one currency into another currency, the rate of exchange used shall be that at which, in accordance with normal banking procedures, the Administrative Agent could purchase the first currency with such other currency on the Business Day preceding that on which final judgment is given. The obligation of the Borrower in respect of any such sum due from it to the Administrative Agent or any Lender hereunder or under the other Loan Documents shall, notwithstanding any judgment in a currency (the “Judgment Currency”) other than that in which such sum is denominated in accordance with the applicable provisions of this Agreement (the “Agreement Currency”), be discharged only to the extent that on the Business Day following receipt by the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, of any sum adjudged to be so due in the Judgment Currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, may in accordance with normal banking procedures purchase the Agreement Currency with the Judgment Currency. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is less than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender from the Borrower in the Agreement Currency, the Borrower agrees, as a separate obligation and notwithstanding any such judgment, to indemnify the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, against such loss. If the amount of the Agreement Currency so purchased is greater than the sum originally due to the Administrative Agent or any Lender in such currency, the Administrative Agent or such Lender, as the case may be, agrees to return the amount of any excess to the Borrower (or to any other Person who may be entitled thereto under applicable law).

10.20 Amendment and Restatement of Existing Credit Agreement; Repayment of Existing Loans.

- 75 -

(a) On the Closing Date, this Agreement shall amend, restate and supersede the Existing Credit Agreement in its entirety, except as provided in this Section 10.20, and the Commitments (as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement) shall be terminated. On the Closing Date, the rights and obligations of the parties evidenced by the Existing Credit Agreement shall be evidenced by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents and shall not in any event be terminated, extinguished or annulled (except, for avoidance of doubt, that the Existing Loans in USD are being repaid on the date hereof pursuant to Section 10.20(b)) but shall hereafter be governed by this Agreement and the other Loan Documents. All references to the Existing Credit Agreement in any Loan Document or other document or instrument delivered in connection therewith shall be deemed to refer to this Agreement and the provisions hereof. Nothing contained herein shall be construed as a novation of the “Obligations” outstanding under and as defined in the Existing Credit Agreement, which shall remain in full force and effect, except as modified hereby.

(b) On the Closing Date, subject to Section 2.2 and the conditions set forth in Section 5.1, the Lenders shall provide Loans to the Borrower in Sterling, the proceeds of which shall be immediately converted to USD by the Administrative Agent, deposited in a deposit account maintained at the Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Borrower, and used to prepay the Existing Loans in USD on the terms and conditions set forth in the Existing Credit Agreement.

Each such recordation shall constitute prima facie evidence of the accuracy of the information recorded. The failure to make any such recordation shall not affect the obligations of the Borrower in respect of any such Loan.

This Note (a) is one of the Notes referred to in the Amended and Restated Term Credit Agreement dated as of July 13, 2018 (as amended or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit Agreement”) among the Borrower, the Lender, various other financial institutions, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent, (b) is subject to the provisions of the Credit Agreement and (c) is subject to optional and mandatory prepayment in whole or in part as provided in the Credit Agreement.

FORM OF OPINION OF BORROWER’S COUNSEL

Please see attached.

The Administrative Agent, et al. July 13, 2018

July 13, 2018

To the Administrative Agent and each Lender listed on Schedule I to

the Credit Agreement referred to below

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to the Company (as defined below) in connection with the Amended and Restated Term Credit Agreement dated as of the date hereof (the “Credit Agreement”), among Affiliated Managers Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), the Lenders party thereto, and Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (in such capacity, the “Administrative Agent”). Capitalized terms that are used and not defined in this opinion letter have the meanings given to them in the Credit Agreement.

This opinion letter is furnished to you pursuant to Section 5.1(i) of the Credit Agreement. The Credit Agreement and the Note being delivered on the date hereof are referred to herein collectively as the “Credit Documents”.

We have reviewed such certificates, documents and records and have made such investigation of fact and such examination of law as we have deemed appropriate in order to enable us to render the opinions set forth herein. In conducting such review, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to us as duplicates or certified or conformed copies. In conducting such investigation of fact, we have relied, without independent verification, upon certificates of officers of the Company, public officials and other appropriate Persons.

Based upon and subject to the foregoing and the assumptions, qualifications and limitations set forth below, we are of the opinion that:

1.The Company (a) is a corporation validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and (b) has the corporate power to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Credit Documents.

2.The Company has duly authorized, executed and delivered each of the Credit Documents.

3.Each of the Credit Documents constitutes the valid and binding obligation of the Company and is enforceable against the Company in accordance with its terms.

4.The execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents and the performance by the Company of its payment obligations thereunder will not violate or require the repurchase of securities under the charter or by-laws of the Company.

The Administrative Agent, et al. July 13, 2018

5.The execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents and the performance by the Company of its payment obligations thereunder(a) will not result in a violation by such Person of any statute of the United States or the State of New York, the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), or any rule or regulation thereunder and (b) will not result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, any of the agreements listed on Schedule 1 hereto.

6.No consent, approval, license or exemption by, or order or authorization of, or filing, recording or registration with, any United States federal, New York or Delaware governmental authority pursuant to any statute, rule or regulation referred to in paragraph 5 above is required to be obtained or made by the Company in connection with the execution and delivery by the Company of the Credit Documents or the performance by the Company of its payment obligations thereunder.

7.We are not representing the Company in any pending litigation in which it is a named defendant that challenges the validity or enforceability of, or seeks to enjoin the performance of, the Credit Documents.

8.The Company is not required to be registered as an “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

9.Assuming that the proceeds of the Loans are applied in the manner contemplated by, and subject to the limitations contained in, the Credit Agreement, neither the making of the Loans under the Credit Agreement on the date hereof, nor the application of the proceeds thereof, will violate Regulations T, U or X of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System.

Our opinions expressed above are limited to (a) the federal laws of the United States and the laws of the State of New York, in each case that in our experience are typically applicable to transactions of the type contemplated by the Credit Documents and (b) to the extent relevant to the opinions expressed in paragraphs 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 above, the DGCL. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, we express no opinion with respect to (i) any federal or state securities or “blue sky” laws or regulations (including, without limitation, the antifraud provisions thereof) or margin regulations, other than as expressly set forth in paragraphs 8 and 9 above, (ii) any antitrust, environmental, employee benefit or pension, real property or tax laws, (iii) any privacy, national security, antiterrorism, money laundering, racketeering, criminal and civil forfeiture, foreign corrupt practices, foreign asset or trading control laws or (iv) any municipal or other local law, rule or regulation.

Our opinions are subject to the following additional assumptions, qualifications and limitations:


(a)	Our opinions are subject to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, fraudulent conveyance and similar laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors generally and (ii) general principles of equity.

The Administrative Agent, et al. July 13, 2018


(b)	We express no opinion with respect to the applicability of ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇ ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Bankruptcy Code (the “Bankruptcy Code”) or any comparable provision of state law.

(c)

The following may be limited on statutory or public policy grounds: indemnification, contribution and exculpation provisions relating to securities laws or a Person’s own gross negligence, willful misconduct or other wrongdoing, broadly worded waivers, waivers of defenses, waivers of rights to damages, waivers of unknown or future claims, and waivers of statutory, regulatory or constitutional rights.


(d)	We express no opinion with respect to (i) rights to receive prepayment premiums, the unaccrued portion of original issue discount, late fees or liquidated damages, in each case to the extent determined to be unreasonable or to constitute a penalty or unmatured interest, (ii) rights of setoff or (iii) judgment currency.


(e)	Our opinions with respect to choice of law and forum selection provisions are given solely in reliance on, and are limited in scope to, Sections 5-1401 and 5-1402 of the General Obligations Law of the State of New York.

(f)

We express no opinion with respect to (i) any provision that contains a waiver of any objection based on inappropriate venue or forum non conveniens in any United States federal court or implies that any United States federal court has subject matter jurisdiction or (ii) whether any United States federal court or New York State court would enforce the exclusivity of any submission to jurisdiction of any such courts. In addition, we note that under New York Civil Practice Law and Rules § 510 a New York State court has discretion to transfer the place of trial.


(g)	Certain provisions contained in the Credit Documents may be further limited or rendered unenforceable by applicable law, but in our opinion the inclusion of such provisions in the Credit Documents does not render the Credit Documents invalid as a whole or substantially interfere with the practical realization of the principal benefits intended to be provided thereby.

(h)

Courts in the United States customarily have not rendered judgments for money damages denominated in any currency other than United States dollars. However, Section 27(b) of the Judiciary Law of the State of New York provides that a judgment or decree in an action based upon an obligation denominated in a currency other than United States dollars shall be rendered in the foreign currency of the underlying obligation and converted into United States dollars at the rate of exchange prevailing on the date of the entry of the judgment or decree. We express no opinion as to whether a Federal court would render a judgment other than in United States dollars. We also note that Section 502(b) of the Bankruptcy Code requires that the amount of a claim against a debtor that is denominated in a foreign currency must be determined in lawful currency of the United States as of the date of the filing of the bankruptcy petition.

The Administrative Agent, et al. July 13, 2018

This opinion letter is furnished solely for the benefit of the addressees and their assignees who become Lenders or the Administrative Agent under the Credit Agreement; provided, that (i) no assignee shall have any greater rights with respect to this opinion letter than the original addressees hereof, (ii) no reissuance of this opinion letter shall be deemed to have occurred by reason of any such assignment and no such assignment shall be deemed to extend any statute of limitations period applicable on the date hereof, (iii) any reliance on this opinion letter by an assignee must be actual and reasonable under the circumstances existing at the time such assignee becomes a Lender or the Administrative Agent, including any changes in law, facts or any other developments known to or reasonably knowable by such assignee at such time and (iv) all rights hereunder may be asserted only in a single proceeding by and through either the Administrative Agent or the Required Lenders. This opinion letter may not be relied upon for any other purpose or by any other Person without our prior written consent.

Very truly yours,

Ropes & ▇▇▇▇ LLP

2. Without the Company’s prior written consent, we and our representatives will not disclose to any other person the fact that the Information has been made available, that discussions or negotiations are taking place concerning a possible transaction involving us and the Company or any of the terms, conditions or other facts with respect to any such possible transaction, including the status thereof, except as required by law (including to bank regulators and examiners) and then only with prior written notice as soon as possible to the Company (provided that such written notice shall not be required for ordinary course disclosures pursuant to requests by bank regulators and examiners or to the extent prohibited by law or legal process).

CREDIT AGREEMENT

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF SUBORDINATED INDEBTEDNESS

Subordination Provisions

(a) General. This [_________], including all principal, interest, fees, costs, enforcement expense (including legal fees and disbursements), and any other reimbursement and indemnity obligations created or evidenced by this [__________], or any prior, concurrent or subsequent notes, instruments, or agreements of indebtedness, liabilities or obligations of any type or form whatsoever relating thereto in favor of [the Payee] (“Subordinated Debt”) and any and all documents or instruments evidencing, guaranteeing or securing directly or indirectly any of the foregoing, whether now existing or hereafter created (“Subordinated Documents”), shall be and hereby are subordinated and the payment thereof is deferred until the full and final payment in cash of the Senior Debt, whether now or hereafter incurred or owed by the Maker. Notwithstanding the immediately preceding sentence, the Maker shall be permitted to pay, and [the Payee] shall be permitted to receive, any regularly scheduled payment of interest or principal on this [_______], so long as at the time of such payment, such payment is permitted and no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing, in each case under the terms and provisions of any Senior Debt or would occur after giving effect thereto.

(b) Enforcement. [The Payee] will not take or omit to take any action or assert any claim with respect to the Subordinated Debt or otherwise which is inconsistent with the provisions of this Section [___]. Without limiting the foregoing, [the Payee] will not assert, collect or enforce the Subordinated Debt or any part thereof or take any action to foreclose or realize upon the Subordinated Debt or any part thereof or enforce any of the Subordinated Documents except (i) in each such case as necessary, so long as no default or event of default has occurred and is then continuing under the terms and provisions of any Senior Debt or would occur after giving effect thereto, to collect any sums expressly permitted to be paid by the Maker pursuant to Section [__](a) above or (ii) to the extent (but only to such extent) that the commencement of a legal action may be required to toll the running of any applicable statute of limitations. Until the Senior Debt has been finally paid in full in cash, [the Payee] shall not have any right of subrogation, reimbursement, restitution, contribution or indemnity whatsoever from any assets of the Maker or any guarantor of or provider of collateral security for any Senior Debt. [The Payee] further waives any and all rights with respect to marshalling.

(c) Payments Held in Trust. [The Payee] will hold in trust and immediately pay over to the holders of Senior Debt, in the same form of payment received, with appropriate endorsements, for application to the Senior Debt, any cash (or cash equivalent) amount that the Maker pays to [the Payee] with respect to the Subordinated Debt, or as collateral for the Senior Debt any other assets of the Maker that [the Payee] may receive with respect to

F-1

Subordinated Debt, in each case except with respect to payments expressly permitted pursuant to Section [__](a) above.

(d) Defense to Enforcement. If [the Payee], in contravention of the terms of this [______], shall commence, prosecute or participate in any suit, action or proceeding against the Maker, then the Maker may interpose as a defense or plea the agreements in this [_____], and any holder of Senior Debt may intervene and interpose such defense or plea in its name or in the name of the Maker. If [the Payee], in contravention of the terms of this [________], shall attempt to collect any of the Subordinated Debt or enforce any of the Subordinated Documents, then any holder of Senior Debt or the Maker may, by virtue of this Agreement, restrain the enforcement thereof in the name of any holder of Senior Debt or in the name of the Maker. If [the Payee], in contravention of the terms of this Agreement, obtains any cash or other assets of the Maker as a result of any administrative, legal or equitable actions, or otherwise, [the Payee] agrees forthwith to pay, deliver and assign to the holders of Senior Debt, with appropriate endorsements, any such cash (or cash equivalent) for application to the Senior Debt and any such other assets as collateral for the Senior Debt.

(e) Bankruptcy, Etc.

(i) At any meeting of creditors of the Maker or in the event of any case or proceeding, voluntary or involuntary, for the distribution, division or application of all or part of the assets of the Maker or the proceeds thereof, whether such case or proceeding be for the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Maker or its business, a receivership, insolvency or bankruptcy case or proceeding, an assignment for the benefit of creditors or a proceeding by or against the Maker for relief under the federal Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy, reorganization or insolvency law or any other law relating to the relief of debtors, readjustment of indebtedness, reorganization, arrangement, composition or extension or marshalling of assets or otherwise, the holders of Senior Debt are hereby irrevocably authorized at any such meeting or in any such proceeding to receive or collect any cash or other assets of the Maker distributed, divided or applied by way of dividend or payment, or any securities issued on account of any Subordinated Debt, and apply such cash to or hold such other assets or securities as collateral for the Senior Debt, and to apply to the Senior Debt any cash proceeds of any realization upon such other assets or securities that the holders of Senior Debt elect to effect, until all of the Senior Debt shall have been paid in full in cash.

(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of Section[___](e)(i) above, [the Payee] shall be entitled to receive and retain any securities of the Maker or any other corporation or other entity provided for by a plan of reorganization or readjustment provided that: (x) the payment of such securities is subordinate, at least to the extent provided in this [__________] with respect to Subordinated Debt, to the payment of all Senior Debt under any such plan of reorganization or readjustment, (y) the rights of the holders of the Senior Debt are not, without the consent of such holders, altered or impaired by such arrangement, reorganization or readjustment, and (z) all other terms of such arrangement, reorganization or readjustment are acceptable to the holders of Senior Debt.

(iii) [[The Payee] undertakes and agrees for the benefit of each holder of Senior Debt to execute, verify, deliver and file any proof of claim, consent, assignment or other instrument which any holder of Senior Debt may at any time require in order to prove and

F-2

realize upon any right or claim pertaining to the Subordinated Debt and to effectuate the full benefit of the subordination contained herein; and upon failure of [the Payee] so to do prior to 30 days before the expiration any such holder of Senior Debt shall be deemed irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of [the Payee] to execute, verify, deliver and file any such proof of claim, consent, assignment or other instrument.]¹²

(iv) At any such meeting of creditors or in the event of any such case or proceeding, [the Payee] shall not vote with respect to any plan of partial or complete liquidation, reorganization, arrangement, composition or extension, or take any other action in any way so as to contest (i) the validity of any Senior Debt or any collateral therefor or guaranties thereof, (ii) the relative rights and duties of any holders of any Senior Debt established in any instruments or agreements creating or evidencing any of the Senior Debt with respect to any of such collateral or guaranties or (iii) [the Payee]’s obligations and agreements set forth in this Agreement.

(f) Freedom of Dealing. [The Payee] agrees that the Maker may, from time to time and at any time, incur additional Senior Debt as it deems necessary, appropriate or desirable in its sole discretion. [The Payee] agrees, with respect to any and all Senior Debt and any and all collateral therefor or guaranties thereof, that the Maker and the holders of Senior Debt may agree to increase the amount of any Senior Debt or otherwise modify the terms of any Senior Debt, and the holders of Senior Debt may grant extensions of the time of payment or performance to and make compromises, including releases of collateral or guaranties, and settlements with the Maker and all other persons, in each case without the consent of [the Payee] and without affecting the agreements of [the Payee] contained in this [_______]; provided, however, that nothing contained in this Section [___](f) shall constitute a waiver of the right of the Maker itself to agree to or consent to a settlement or compromise of a claim which any holder of Senior Debt may have against the Maker.

(g) Sale of Subordinated Debt. [The Payee] will not, at any time while this Agreement is in effect, sell, transfer, pledge, assign, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of any Subordinated Debt to any person other than a person who agrees in a writing, satisfactory in form and substance to the Maker and the holders of a majority of the then outstanding principal amount of Senior Debt, to be bound by all of the obligations of [the Payee] hereunder. In the case of any such disposition by [the Payee], [the Payee] will use its best efforts to notify each holder of Senior Debt at least 10 days prior to the date of any of such intended disposition.

(h) Continuation of Subordination. To the extent that the Maker or any guarantor of or provider of collateral for the Senior Debt makes any payment on the Senior Debt that is subsequently invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or set aside or is required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver or any other party under any bankruptcy, insolvency or reorganization act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause (such payment being hereinafter referred to as a “Voided Payment”), then to the extent of such Voided Payment, that portion of the Senior Debt that had been previously satisfied by such Voided Payment

___________________

¹² This clause (iii) shall only be required for Subordinated Payment Notes on or after the Closing Date.

F-3

shall be revived and continue in full force and effect (and continue to have the benefit of the subordination provisions hereof) as if such Voided Payment had never been made. To the extent that [the Payee] has received any payments with respect to Subordinated Debt subsequent to the date of the initial receipt of such Voided Payment by a holder of Senior Debt and such payments have not been invalidated, declared to be fraudulent or preferential or set aside or required to be repaid to a trustee, receiver, or any other party under any bankruptcy act, state or federal law, common law or equitable cause, [the Payee] shall be obligated and hereby agrees that any such payment so made or received shall be deemed to have been received in trust for the benefit of the recipient of the Voided Payment, and [the Payee] hereby agrees to pay to the recipient of the Voided Payment, upon demand, the full amount so received by [the Payee] during such period of time to the extent necessary fully to restore to the recipient of the Voided Payment the amount of such Voided Payment.

(i) Continuing Agreement. The provisions of this Section [__] constitute a continuing agreement and shall be binding upon the Maker and [the Payee] and their successors and assigns, and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by each holder of Senior Debt and their successors, transferees and assigns.

For purposes of these subordination provisions, Senior Debt would be defined as follows:

“Senior Debt” means (i) all indebtedness of the Maker for or relating to money borrowed from banks or other institutional lenders or evidenced by a note, bond, debenture or similar instrument and financing leases, including any extension or renewals thereof, whether outstanding on the date hereof or hereafter created or incurred, which is not by its terms subordinate and junior to or on a parity with the [_________]s, (ii) all guaranties by the Maker, which are not by their terms subordinate and junior to or on a parity with the [_______]s, of indebtedness of any subsidiary if such indebtedness would have been Senior Debt pursuant to the provisions of clause (i) of this sentence had it been indebtedness of the Maker, (iii) all obligations of the Maker in respect of letters of credit or similar instruments issued or accepted by banks and other financial institutions for account of the Maker, and (iv) all obligations of the Maker in connection with an interest rate swap, cap or collar agreement or similar arrangement between the Maker and one or more financial institutions providing for the transfer or mitigation of interest risks either generally or under specific contingencies, in each case including all principal, interest (including, without limitation, any interest accruing subsequent to the commencement of bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceedings with respect to the Maker, whether or not such interest is allowable as a claim in any such proceeding), fees, costs, enforcement expenses (including legal fees and disbursements), collateral protection expenses and other reimbursement or indemnity obligations created or evidenced by any prior, concurrent, or subsequent notes, instruments or agreements of indebtedness, liabilities or obligations of any type or form whatsoever relating to any of the foregoing. Senior Debt shall expressly include any and all interest accruing and out-of-pocket costs or expenses incurred after the date of any filing by or against the Maker of any petition under the federal Bankruptcy Code or any other bankruptcy, insolvency, or reorganization act regardless of whether the claim of any holder of Senior Debt therefor is allowed or allowable in the case or proceeding relating thereto.
